The Alpha's Secret Son

"This can't be true. I spoke to them a few hours ago, tell me it's a lie, tell me my parents are alive." "I'm sorry for your loss, Anita. I hate to be the bearer of bad news. We lost them in the accident" the Doctor announced to her. "I can't believe this! How will I cope? How will I survive? I have no one else as a family" she sobs as tears flow freely from her eyes. "Anita, stop crying, you need to accept reality and move on with your life" "Uncle Richard, I don't expect them to die soon. I can't believe I am now an orphan." "We tried to save them, but we lost them when we got to the hospital, they had lost a lot of blood and before the doctors could begin treatment, your mom died". "What about my dad?" "He was on life support, but after some hours, he gave up the ghost also". "How come I am just hearing about their death now? I could have come to the hospital, a message should have been sent to me" "We didn't want to spoil the joy of your graduation, we wanted you to be done with it before we called you. " "Why me? Why this period when I need them the most?" "This is not a time for you to blame yourself, brace up, and prepare yourself for what lies ahead," Mr. Richard replied. " What lies ahead? I don't understand " "Yeah, I have made plans for you to move in with someone that would be able to take care of you." "I still don't get what you are saying, sir". Mr. Richard is Anita's uncle. She barely knows him but has seen him on rare occasions when her parents held family parties in their house. She is not familiar with her parents' relatives, because they don't have visitors, both her parents are medical doctors, and they are always busy with pack responsibilities rather than having time for social gatherings. Being an only child, she is the cynosure of everyone. They made sure everything she needs is provided, until the sudden death of her parents, which she has not adjusted to yet. " You will be moving in with Alpha Logan, you will stay there until you will be able to decide for yourself what you want." " Why are you treating me this way? I have yet to recover from the shock of my parents' deaths. I have not even mourned their loss." " Shut your mouth up! You are not the one that will tell me what to do." " You must be joking, I am going nowhere, I am staying in my father's house, and no one can push me out." Mr. Richard closed the door of the room and locked her up. Anita forcefully bangs the door and tries to open it, but it was difficult. "Why are you locking me up? Open this door now" she continued, banging with her fist. She sits on the floor after several attempts, thinking about her late parents and what they would have done if they were alive. She begins to sob uncontrollably. She lay down on the bare ground and sprung to her feet when she overheard voices outside. She recognized the voice of her uncle and someone else whose voice she couldn't decipher." How much are you paying me for the bounty?" The stranger asked. " A thousand dollars", her Uncle replied to him. " I am yet to see her. Please take her outside. Let me see what I am paying for." "I will do that now. Trust me, I won't disappoint you" Anita heard their conversation and tried to escape from an open window, but it was too late. Her uncle opened the door and forcefully dragged her out. " This is what I have for you, a perfect gift", he replied, bringing her before Alpha Logan. " What are you trying to do, Uncle Richard? You want to sell me to this man?" "I have told you to stop asking me silly questions, you will be following this man here to his house. There you have the opportunity to start your life." " Young lady, get into the car!" Logan commanded. She made efforts to run from him, but she was too late. Two strong hands held her arms and dragged her inside the car. She wiggled her body trying to break free from their hold, but she was too weak for their strength. " Please don't take me away, Uncle Richard, please don't allow them to take me away" she cried and begged. The car started and they drove away from their pack. She looked at the man seated by her side in disgust as she repeatedly used her hands to hit the closed door, hoping someone would see and save her. She stared at him, his facial expression was hard to read, there was something about him that she couldn't place on that made her tremble. "You are Anita, right?" "Yes, yes sir…" she stammered. He felt uncomfortable looking at her, she made him feel weak, and it brought a pity feeling for her. He was meant to be hard and hostile towards her, but he couldn't explain this tenderness that was growing within him. He feels something is out of the ordinary about her, but decides to ignore it and not be moved by her tears. " Please Sir, don't hurt me, allow me to mourn my dead parents." " Silence, I don't want to hear anything more from you." "You would gain your freedom on one condition. " " What sir, I am ready to do anything to be free?" " I don't think you are ready yet. If you are prepared to behave accordingly, I will let you know." " Please, I am ready. I promise to obey all that you say or tell me to do" "You will give me an heir." "An heir?" Anita looked with shock in her eyes. This was the least she expected from him, if this would make her f ree, she was ready to succumb to his will.
