Surrender

1128 Words
Even though it was my first time, I did not bleed like everyone else. When the Alpha woke up and found out that there was no sign of me losing my virginity, he lost his cool. I remember the mask of ruthlessness on his face; it still sends a shiver down my spine even though I have seen his much uglier side. His voice was not loud but rather like a devil’s whisper, “Is that why you kept rejecting me? Because you were too busy warming another man’s bed?” Last time, I was naive, oblivious of the power this man held. I rebelled, “If you were half the man they were, maybe I wouldn’t have. Donovan Ashford, I am going to call the f*****g cops on you and book you for assaulting me. I would rather be a slut all my life than be with someone as disgusting as you.” Now, when I think about it, I could not manage to figure out where I accumulated that courage from to say something like that to his face, that too in his house, sitting on his bed. The man was so powerful that the cops would let him roll even if he were to kill me at the door of the police station. He was the Alpha of the most dreaded pack of the land; everyone feared him. When competing against him, weaker sections like me would always fall to the unfair side. When the Alpha heard my words, his pupils contracted with coldness. He grabbed my wrist and dragged me off to his bed without a warning. Before I could realize what was happening, he had already pinned me down underneath him, “Let me make sure you have plenty to testify about.” When I remembered this, my hands trembled with anger. It was such a pity I had to bear his torture all my life, and the only way to put an end to it was by ending my life. In my past life, I attempted to kill him once. Not only did he survive it, but he did not even punish me for it. He let it go as if he could not even see the pain I was in to have taken such a decision. But now, I wasn’t stupid anymore. I have understood that I cannot fight or overpower him, so the best way forward was to play safe without offending him. Instead, I am going to use him as a pawn to eliminate everyone who once wronged me. I didn’t waste any more time thinking and climbed back on the bed; maybe I was really tired because I slipped into the world of wonderland as soon as my head hit the pillow. When I finally woke up, it was all hazy because of the long sleep. I looked around to discover the Alpha naked, standing against the light to trace a slender and strong figure. I deliberately lifted the quilt for him to see the stained sheets and casually reached out for his white shirt while climbing off the bed. I pulled my hair into a messy bun and left the collar button open, revealing my slender neck with the marks left behind by him. I stood in front of the mirror, looking at his mark. I was his now! His chosen mate. “Do you blame me?” The man, who was looking at me, sighing at the mirror, suddenly asked, “I might have marked you without your consent, but if you stay by my side, I won’t ever treat you unfairly.” Donovan tossed the cigarette in his hand into the ashtray and put on his black silk bathrobe, the straps secured loosely around his waist. Blame? Do I even hold enough authority to blame him? I suppressed my anger and lowered my head, portraying myself as a miserable nymph, “Do I have any choice? You claimed me, you did not even ask.” I pulled the collar to hide the mark and turned to look at him, “But it’s done now. I will carry it with me because I have to.” His calm and emotionless eyes changed slightly, and he averted his gaze to the big, messy bed behind him. Looking at him inspecting the blood stain, I stood there breathless. This man was very shrewd. What if he sees through my lie? I was still awaiting a reaction from him when I heard a knock on the bedroom door. It was Donovan’s butler, Mr Thames, across the door, “Alpha, the young mistress of Veraline’s has come to meet you. She has been waiting outside for a long time now. Do you want to meet her now?” When I heard this announcement, I immediately distanced myself from the Alpha and went into a panic mode, “f**k! My sister is here. If she sees me like this, she is going to kill me.” Donovan didn’t respond, and when his butler heard no sound from the room, he went back, assuming that the Alpha was still asleep. I snorted viciously. If Penelope were just like how she was before, she would get impatient and come straight to the bedroom to meet her dear uncle. Last time, Donovan covered my mouth and did not let me call for help, resulting in Penelope going away without knowing what was going on. But this time, it is not going to be the same! Didn’t she like him so much that she was ready to kill her own sister for him? Let’s see how she is gonna react when she finds her Perfect Uncle in the arms of the sister she despises the most, the morning after Bloodmoon. Donovan suddenly spoke up, snapping me out of my trance, “It’s just your sister. Why are you freaking out?” “Freaking out? You just marked me…” I pretended to be frustrated and walked away, “I am going to tell her you marked me forcefully.” Before I could even take a step away, he grabbed my arm and pulled me in an embrace. He made me look at him and traced his thumb against my cheeks, “Force? If I remember correctly, you were the one who kissed me back.” My face turned red when I understood what he meant; more than embarrassed, I was surprised to see that he was teasing me. He had never done that in the past! I turned my head, refusing to look at him, “I don’t know what you are talking about.” “Is that so?” He grabbed my waist and pulled me closer, “How about I remind you?”
