The Alpha's Forbidden Desire

SENT OUT.

“How old did you say she is?” The Alpha asked Ariel's father as his eyes never left Ariel for a second majorly because what she was wearing caught his eyes that he couldn't overlook it. Jackie had chosen a white gown for Ariel to wear. She insisted that her father wanted her to wear it, which she had no choice but to wear. Half of her breasts were out for the world to see and this made her extremely uncomfortable.

The highest bidder who happened to be an Alpha indeed was sitting opposite her with his legs crossed and his eyes on her exposed chest. It wasn't even exposed that much. She wasn't comfortable wearing the gown but her step mother forced it on her. She understood the logic behind her doing that. She wanted to make Ariel sexually appealing to the man that would be coming. According to her, “At least, if you are unable to get a good man with your behavior and plain feathers, something else should get them.”

She internally rolled my eyes and tried adjusting but it wouldn't work.

“p*****t!” Ariel muttered under her breath. He was thirty two years old for goodness sake while she just turned twenty three. The age difference wasn't the problem but he was ugly! His face looked like that of a monkey and almost made her nauseous.

“Twenty three, Alpha.” Ariel's father, Jefferson, responded with a thin smile. He could see that the Alpha was deeply interested in Ariel and this made him happy because he knew that he was going to make money off her tonight.

“Twenty three? She is young.”

“Yeah, she is. She is young but old enough to settle down. We don't want her to start getting involved in trash, that is why I want her to settle down and have a family if possible so she can be faced with responsibility and become responsible.” Jefferson uttered and rolled his tongue.

The Alpha nodded. His fingers were pointed at each other, touching each other slightly as various images were going through his head.

“Is she up to your taste? Would you like to marry her?”

The Alpha bellowed in a mirthless laughter, “Who wouldn't want to marry this beauty? I just need her to do something for me before I make my conclusion — just a few more checks.”

“Sure. Anything.”

“Great.”

A few more checks? What was that supposed to mean?

The Alpha sat up and cleared his throat, preparing to enlighten them about the few checks of his that he was talking about.

“Your daughter has been rumored to be cursed. She doesn't have a divine mate nor has she been chosen by anyone to be one. By marrying her, I am actually lowering my standards. I am going to be reduced to the same level as she is. She doesn't have a good reputation which is why you also want to send her off…I suppose.This is the final test. I need to see if she is indeed what I need in a woman.” He explained. Ariel looked at her Father. What nonsense was the man spewing?

She had been trying so hard to be calm. She didn't want to display her craziness at this point after the secret that she had just stumbled upon a few hours ago.

If she had not known about it, maybe she wouldn't have felt so much resistance towards this gathering. Surprisingly, he had no problem with it as he simply nodded. At this point, Ariel believed her head was going to slice into two because of how angry she was.

“Alright then.”

“Stand up!” The Alpha ordered and Jackie nudged Ariel to do so. Ariel was still confused.

“Turn around.”

She turned around.

“Is her womb intact and is she still a virgin?”

Immediately she heard that question, Ariel scoffed in disbelief. Disdain was clearly written all over her face. He was working on a thin line.

“Why? Are you looking for a virgin when you're not one yourself?” she spat out and Jackie smacked her butt. She saw the Alpha laugh as he stood up and approached her.

“We aren't even married yet and you are already questioning my authority. Fine then, I know how well I deal with women like you. So is she?” He turned to her parents. Jackie positively responded that she was a virgin even though she was not. But they didn't know.

“Your breath? Do you smell nice? Is everything in place?” He took a step closer and started sniffing her body which caused her great discomfort. He suddenly grabbed her breasts and her eyes almost flew out of their sockets! Everything stopped for a moment in her head as her brain tried to confirm if what she was experiencing now was real and when it was confirmed that it was, she snapped back to reality and landed a hot slap across his face. Ariel pushed him away from her and he fell and hit his head against the wooden chair that was behind him.

Jackie jumped up in pure shock of the “atrocity” Ariel had just committed. She screamed while Ariel continued glaring at him. My father stood up too.

“What nonsense is this, Ariel? Have you gone mad?!” He yelled so badly at her. Hearing these words from him made my heart sting so much more than when a scorpion bit me years ago. The Alpha rose to his feet in anger.

“People said it and I have confirmed it myself that she is a witch! She is cursed! She almost killed me! I almost lost my life because I was trying to do you all a favor by marrying your worthless and smelly daughter! If you are ready to get your other pretty daughter married then you can call me.”

“Ewww, gross.” The said other daughter instantly replied. He stormed out of the house.

Jackie was stunned. She turned to face her husband, her face was literally asking him what else they were supposed to do? She then looked at Ariel.

“How could you have done this? Are you mad? This was the only suitable partner that we could find for you…”

“Why? Why exactly do I have to do the dirty work? Didn't you see the way I was being touched? I was molested. I was molested right in front of you but none of you did anything. Why should I become a s*x worker because you plan on sending your daughter to school? Don't I matter? Dad, don't I matter? I am your first daughter, am I not? Why am I being a scapegoat? Why?” She burst into tears. Jefferson's head was buried below. No one knew what he was thinking.

He suddenly stood up, “I knew you would fail me. I knew you would not be able to keep your promise.” He stormed in and within a few minutes, he was back with a bag — Ariel's bag. Ariel was shocked.

“Dad…”

“I want you to leave my house right now, young lady.” Jefferson ordered and Ariel fell to her knees desperately in tears.

“Dad, please, I can't leave here. I have nowhere else to go, dad, please forgive me. Please…”

“You said your boyfriend was going to marry you the first time, I was patient enough. When he dumped you, I was still patient enough and then I asked you for one little thing. You promised that you would do it but you didn't. I don't want to hear it. GET OUT, your murderer! I knew that there is no way you could be my daughter! Out! I am sure your mother must be rolling in the grave in regret because of you.”

Jefferson pushed her out so harshly that she fell from the staircase outside. She groaned in pain. Her bag was thrown out, hitting her in the face.

“Let this be the last time I will ever see your face. If you don't leave, I will make you.” The door was slammed shut against her.

Ariel looked at her legs. Some parts of her skin had peeled off due to the impact of the fall. With tears in her eyes and pain in her heart, she slowly stood up and carried her bag with her.

The rain seemed to be against her too and it started pouring. She was s

oaked and walking aimlessly with no place in mind to sleep in. After walking for a while, she sat beside a pole in the rain and cried.
