The Rejected Alpha

Chapter 5

The first day went quite uneventful, and William was glad when he got home to notice that his father wasn’t there. He took out his books and started studying.

The rest of the week was pretty much the same as the first day, seeing new kids in class every day, but not being allowed to speak to any of them, William just kept his head down and didn’t want to make any eye contact. He could hear and feel the children from the pack as they looked at him in disgust, and the human children just thought him being a weirdo for not talking to anyone.

The weekend came, and William was hoping to have some alone time, some time where he could go for a jog, as he hasn’t been able to do that since coming home.

“You had better not sleep late tomorrow”, his father growled at him. “You must go help Beta Charles, his water pump broke again, I guess you are not as good as Mt Drakensburg thought you were,” his father told him.

As William was leaving the house to go to Beta Charles, his father blocked the doorway. “ I hope you enjoy your day today,” he said. “Your personal training will start today he said with a wicked smile on his face.”

“What personal training” William thought as he walked under the Oak tree canopy. How nice and free this feels. “I wish our house had a driveway like this.”

“Beta Charles is waiting for you” his wife Margaret said. “He is out back and me and Isabella will be leaving now. We won’t be back until late” she said.

As William looked how the two women drove away, he felt a grip on his shoulder, it was Beta Charles. “Come here mutt,” he said, “you really are useless at fixing things, now look at the water pump and get it fixed, the animals need water.” William walked over to where the pump was installed, and noticed that the water troughs were filled for the animals. As he rounded the corner to get to the pump, he felt a hit on his head. He didn’t even feel it when he fell on the ground.

When William woke up, he saw Beta Charles and his wife Margaret looking at him. There was a strange smile on Margaret’s face that he couldn’t place. It was then that he realized his hands and feet were tied. His hands were tied above his head and his feet were spread apart and tied to the bed he was lying on.

“Why am I tied up”, William asked Beta Charles, but he refused to comment. The two of them walked out of the room and William heard Margaret say to Beta Charles that he should start the training as instructed by Alpha Gabriel.

Beta Charles looked at her, turned around and walked over to William. As he sat down on the bed he said, “Now remember, I am doing this because you are a useless mutt, but you think you are worth something because of your old school. Well, we will show you how worthless you are.” He suddenly ripped all William’s clothes from his body and started to pound into him with his fists. William could hear and feel as his bones cracked. Felt his flesh getting bruised as the hitting just continued. After what felt like an hour or more, Beta Charles stopped.

“Now mutt,” Beta Charles said, “time for the next phase of your training”. William saw Margaret standing in the doorway, holding a towel and some water. Before he realised what was going on, Beta Charles started hitting him with a whip, but this was no ordinary whip, it had about 8 tentacles, each covered with small sharp blades. As each stroke landed on William’s body, more and more cuts appeared.  What seemed like an eternity William passed out again. This torture kept on happening between the two of them until the Sunday evening when William had to go home.

William could barely walk home, wearing his torn clothes and as he entered the house Alpha Gabriel just looked at him. “It is high time you get what you deserve” he said. William could feel the anger growing inside him, the hatred for this person supposed to be his father. “How could he get people to treat me like this?”

“Delilah”, William’s father shouted at his mother, “come and see what William looks like”. As his mother came downstairs, the phone rang. “You did well,” Is all William could hear his father say on the phone. “Beta Charles wants to talk to you” as Alpha Gabriel handed Luna Delilah the phone. She just looked at William emotionless for a while, put the phone down and walked over to him. William felt a huge punch in the face from his mother, not for the first time he may add.

“You are a filthy mutt”, is all she said. “I don’t want him near Gabriella” she told Alpha Gabriel. “Trying to seduce Beta Charles’ wife and her having to defend herself, I would rather kill him than have him speak to Gabriella.”

“Go to your room and stay there”, William’s father told him, and as he walked away, he heard Alpha Gabriel speak to Beta Charles on the phone, “You have done very well” he said, “and for this we you will be rewarded handsomely.”

For the remainder of the week, William didn’t go out of his room, his food was left on the floor outside his door for him.

“William Von Tromp, come see me in my office” the school heard over the school intercom. It has been a tiring morning so far, all the wolves seemed to have heard the lies about William and they looked at him in total disgust.

“Don’t even bother to sit down,” Principal Graham told him. He walked over to William, closed the door and took his cane out. “Now bend over and take your punishment for being a perverted young man”. All William could do was to obey, as he knew he would tell his father if he didn’t obey.
