Chapter 3: "You must enjoy our nights, don't you?"
Elena's POV
I stared out of the small window, gazing at the full moon as if it held the answers to my prayers. It had been over a month since I found myself trapped in this hellish existence, with no concrete plan to escape. Each passing day brought new torments, unsolicited intimacy from Marcus, unthinkable tasks that degraded me further, and the constant fear of what the next night would bring. I could count the days I had a peaceful sleep because I was either too scared he was going to barge in and make me his s*x slave, or I was crying myself to bed.
Tonight wasn't any different. I spent hours staring into the darkness, waiting for Marcus's unruly visit. Morning came, and I got ready for what Marcus could have in stock for me. As I served breakfast to Marcus and his guest, another Alpha, Caleb, I felt Caleb's lustful gaze lingering on me. Every time he comes to visit, he never fails to undress me with his eyes. I served their breakfast as quickly as possible. As I attempted to leave, Marcus's voice stopped me in my tracks. His words sent a shiver down my spine, and I felt a knot form in the pit of my stomach. I didn't know what was coming next, but I dreaded it with every fiber of my being.
"When did I last visit you? "I paused, trying to anticipate what he was getting at, "it should be over four nights "it must be obvious to you that I am bored by you then. "I just looked at the ground hoping to hold myself back from saying my mind, Marcus patted Caleb with a smug on his face, "But you see, my friend here thinks you are quite a sight"" She is a gorgeous woman" Caleb added. My nose started to flare, what was he trying to do? At this point, I don't even know what to name myself anymore. A cheap w***e? A slave? what! I screamed in my head. "If you like her so much, then I think you should have her.
What are friends for, if we don't share," Marcus said shamelessly." No, No, certainly not, you can't do that. I am not some object you can hand down," I paused and soon my protest turned to plead, "Please, you can't do this to me "Marcus let out a loud chuckle. You must enjoy our nights, don't you?" I folded my knuckles, restraining myself from dragging his eyeballs out." You don't have to force her, she has her right after all," Caleb said and for some reason, I felt at peace and graced him with a smile, I turned to leave immediately before he changed his mind, "You just have to always remember that you are mine" Marcus called after me.
After that day, I had a series of peaceful nights, spared from Marcus's unwelcome advances. However, his cruelty manifested in other ways, as he continued to make me bow, so he would put his legs on my back or a stool to climb his horse and make me stand while holding the plate he eats from. Caleb, on the other hand, wouldn't stop being nice to me, but I knew it was suspicious.
One day, I was called from my room saying my services were needed by Caleb. I met him in Marcus' room, and naively I explained to him that Marcus was not around, but he insisted on staying while I served him tea. I reluctantly obeyed him, and by the time I came back to the room, he wasn't where I left him, which i was grateful for. It was an opportunity to quietly drop the cup and leave. The moment I dropped the tea, I felt a hand hold on to me from behind. I froze, knowing it would be no other than Caleb. I struggled to free myself, but he didn't budge.
"Do you think I am not good enough for you" he queried." I am lost here." How dare you refuse me when I was offered to you on a platter of gold. "I am already mated to Alpha Marcus. It would be disrespectful to mate with you. "That's not any of your business, you should be grateful someone like me has my eyes on you. "My anger started fuming, so what was he saying when he said I had rights? Who was he fooling? I struggled to turn around to get myself away from him, but before I could do anything, he ripped my clothes off from behind.
My heart felt like it ripped along with it. I could not do this again. I can't have another person who doesn't have any minute regard for me inside of me again. As he pulled his hands forward, to grab my breast, I dug my claws into his hands. He staggered and took the opportunity to move away from me. As I intended to leave the room, he dragged me, making me land on the floor, with my back lying flat on the floor. Now he was on top of me, with my hands clipped with his, and our chests were both heaved.
I bent my knees, nudging his a*s, and he jolted to the front. I slid from beneath him before he regained his position, and I dug my claw in his back, then made for the door. I luckily escaped his claws and went to hide myself in my room even though I knew it was not the safest for me. Folded in a corner of my room, praying and hoping he would leave me, but he was as adamant as his friend, I heard a lot of thuds on my door, followed by another one sending the door flying. Well, I have seen this before and what came after it was the beginning of the nightmare of my life.
He came charging towards me like a bull, he held me with all the strength he had, one which I couldn't fight against. Lo and behold, I was held down against my will shamelessly, not minding the glaring and pitiful look of other Omegas looking through the damaged doorway. He groaned over me in satisfaction. The last thing I saw was a smirk on his face as I closed my eyes and heard the retracing footsteps of Omegas leaving me to my fate. After he had his fun, I just laid there, having lost the will to move or even live. Minutes after hearing Alpha Marcus' Voice, I was dragged to the dungeon.
