>STAR PACK DUNGEON
A lady in her early twenties could be seen lying unconsciously on the floor looking tattered, her dress already torn apart, some parts of her body were visible, and her hair scattered all over her face. Her blood covered her entire face. If misery was a person then that would be her second name.
She had found herself in a situation she had no control over, her life no longer belonged to her, her offense was trusting the man the moon goddess mated her. She had believed being his mate would change his mind, but hell no. She was silly for thinking he had let go of the past.
Her eyes were forced to open the moment the cold water came in contact with her wounded skin, she looked up to see the least of the person she was expecting to see, her nightmare, someone she would pull the trigger on without a second thought. "You still have the guts to sleep? Don't you think it's high time I blow off your skull? I mean seeing you here every day only increases my anger!" He blurted, grabbing her jaw forcefully.
"What are you still waiting for? Come on pull the trigger on me, or do worse I don't care. Do I look like I'm scared of dying? I keep telling you this, kill me whenever you have the chance, you know why?" She asked, raising a brow at him. "I'm killing you the very day I get hold of a weapon, son of a b***h!"
"Good luck with that" He turned and began walking out of the dungeon. "I want her in my chamber tonight," he told the guard at the door before storming out. She could feel her knees getting weaker, then the tears she'd been trying hard to hold the whole time came streaming down her cheeks. "Why's life so cruel to me? Why Me all the time?" She lamented.
The guards could only stare, even though they felt like helping her, but that was gonna be a doom on their part, he wouldn't just kill them; he would make their families pay for their sins.
"Don't you think it's high time you let her go? I mean she's been here for six months, don't you think you have done enough? She's your mate, remember?" Ladder, his beta told him in his chamber (The Alpha's chamber). "And I also don't think you have the right to tell me what and what not to do! Don't you think you are thinking so highly of yourself?" He muttered puffing out smoke from his nostril.
"I know, but still, you have to consider the fact that she is your Luna and free her, not like she's the one who killed your mom" Ladder blurted, earning himself a deadly glare.
"Wait! Don't tell me you pity her?"
"I do, she's innocent, can't you see? Why must you make her suffer for her father's crime? Why?" "Innocent you say?" He questioned, letting out a soft chuckle. "Wasn't my mom innocent? Tell me, what was her offense? He made my mom go through hell, so why can't I do the same to his daughter? Why are you making it seem like I'm being wicked?"
"You are! At this point, I don't think you are any better than her dad. You are even worse than her dad. Come on Lorenzo, you are losing your mind, you are making her go through the same pain your mom went through, free yourself and free her. Let her go".
"Never! Over my dead body. She's mine and mine alone. Who said I'm letting her go? Letting her go will be the last thing I will do on earth" he blurted, his eyes burning in fury.
"Then why not treat her nicely?"
"I'm not doing that either! She doesn't deserve to be loved" with that being said, he walked out of the living room, leaving just ladder in the room.
The maids lowered their heads the moment the alpha walked into the kitchen.
His gaze darkened the moment he saw her, his mistress.
"You may all leave." She told the rest of the maids.
"And who permitted you to let them go?" He questioned glaring at her. “I'm sorry my lord, I thought you were here for me, please pardon me my lord" she pleaded.
"Prepare something for her" he ordered.
"Who?" The annoying lady asked, getting him more furious.
"None of your business! Do as you are told. Bring it to my room once you are done with it" with that being said, he walked out of the kitchen.
"Not again, why is he doing all this for her when he claims he has nothing for her?" She yelled throwing away the glass cup on the floor, it crashed all over the place.
"My lady you don't have to be so engrossed because of her, there are so many ways to deal with the fool don't you think?" Her maid told her.
She was once a maid like the rest, but ever since the alpha took her as his mistress, she's been frustrating the rest of the maids. She sees herself as their queen, someone they must all serve and obey.
"Shut up! I never asked for your suggestions. Who do you even think you are? Huh? How dare you think you can boss me around like that? Being my maid doesn't give you the right to make decisions for me okay? Let this be the last time you ever show your face to me b***h!" She yelled, venting out her anger on the maid. Well deserved.
"Why was he furious when you mentioned that earlier? I mean he was supposed to be happy he was finally letting go of his past grudges, but no, he is bent on killing the innocent girl" Morine the beta's sister said in the beta’s chamber.
"He won't let her go simply because he has fallen head over heels for her"
"What do you mean he is in love with her?" Morine asked curiously.
"He is, that's why he isn't letting her go".
