The Rogue Lycan's Mate

Chapter 8

~*Five years later*~

Delilah woke in a bed in her room she had been given almost two years ago now. Alpha thought she had been behaving well, and decided to give her own room with a bathroom. It was still attached to his room, but she enjoyed having a room to herself.

It was almost winter now, and she sometimes missed the warmth of the closet. Her room wasn't that warm, and there were bars on all her windows. She did appreciate having her own bathroom, and no longer needed to bang on the closet door to use it.

Whenever he wanted to punish her, he would throw her back in the closet for a few days, and return her to her room. She looked toward the window, seeing it was still dark outside. The mornings have been darker and longer, and evenings got darker faster with winter.

She slipped out of bed with her blanket wrapped around her, walking to the window to look out. She saw snow covering the grass, and frowned. She didn't much care for the cold, and preferred the summer heat.

She spent most mornings just sitting on the window sill staring out the window until Alpha came to release her to either clean, or help with the lunch cooking. She never had to help with breakfast, not that she got to eat it anyway.

She was honestly surprised Alpha wasn't up yet. He said he was taking her the hospital today for testing. He was angry with her, she hadn't been able to get pregnant.

Delilah frowned as she thought about the child she had already lost. She got pregnant over a year ago, and Alpha had beaten her so badly she lost it.

She heard noises coming from her bedroom door, and stood up walking over to it to listen, hearing the sounds of moaning. She didn't expect him to remain faithful. Hell if she could, she would choose anyone but him to sleep with. She tried to escape, and to punish her he took another to bed right in front of her.

She didn't understand why he would do it, but when he asked her how she liked the pain. She realized it was meant to be a punishment for her. She was supposed to feel betrayal pains, but she didn't. Guess it was the goddess's way of sparing her the pain.

So she pretended she was in pain, and he seemed to buy it. She wondered if he would feel pain if she was with another, but shrugged it off. He ordered all males to stay away from her, and not talk to her except Beta and Gamma.

Delilah walked to the small dresser, and pulled on a short-sleeved long black dress and a big green sweater for warmth. She paused by the dresser when she heard the groaning stop, and she walked over to her bed, getting down on the carpet.

She looked up when the door opened awhile later, and Alpha walked in. "Good you are dressed." She nodded her head, stood up, and walked over to him. "Breakfast?" She tried not to smile as she saw frustration cross his face. "You've been here for over five years Delilah try to learn the language. No, I already ate."

He grabbed hold of her arm, and led her out of the room. She was purposely only making one-word sentences, so he'd be frustrated and angry with her.

He led her through the packhouse to the clinic doors, and walked in. He pushed her into one of the rooms before he walked to the window to look outside waiting.

She sat down on the bed as the doctor came in with a clipboard. "Oh there you are Alpha. I was worried you weren't going to be coming today. Hello Lu..." She looked at Alpha, seeing the glare on his face, before looking back at the doctor. "Miss Delilah."

He was a tall older man, with gray, black hair. She smiled at him. "Hello... Doctor... Larry." He smiled at her gently, patting her hand gently. "Very good Miss Delilah." She heard the growl from Alpha. "Not good enough in my opinion." She heard him mutter.

She smiled at the doctor, as he lifted a few pages. "Alpha, I ran the test several times as you asked, and I am afraid I have some bad news. It appears Delilah has significant trama from the years of abuse and miscarriage. She is unable to have children."

Delilah looked at Larry furrowing her brows, before looking at Alpha confused. "Abuse?" She saw him growl at Larry. "Stop teaching her new words. Are you certain?" She watched him walk over, and purposely snatch the clipboard in his hands roughly to go through the papers.

"Like I said Alpha, I did the test several times. Honestly, it's a miracle she got pregnant last time. I told you often you were being too rough with her." She watched Alpha look up at him growling. "Are you implying this is my fault? I marked her she should be fine, and fully healed."

She watched Larry shake his head. "She's still a faerie Alpha, she doesn't heal properly like a werewolf does. She still has scars on her back from the whipping. She doesn't heal fully marks still remain."

She couldn't help but frown listening to them talk, and looked down at her stomach. She couldn't help placing a hand on it to mourn the child she lost. She guessed this meant she would never get to be a mother.

She snapped out of her thoughts as Alpha roughly grabbed her arm, pulling her off the bed. "Let's go." She followed him out of the room, looking back at Larry, who looked at her with sympathy. Most looked at her like that, knew what she was doing here. No one seemed to care, or wanted to go up against Alpha.

She couldn't blame them. He had beaten several pack members to death for even speaking to her. He had already killed his first Gamma, and now it was a new one. He wouldn't even look at her unless Alpha sent him for her.

Delilah walked with him into his office when he pushed her down in a chair. "Stay there until I decide what to do with you." He started pacing behind his deck as Beta, and Gamma walked into the office. Beta took the chair beside her, while Gamma shut the door, and leaned against it.

"She can't have children." She felt a hand running up her leg, and quickly crossed her legs so it was out of reach of Beta glaring at him. "Well, you can always reject her, and give her to me Alpha."

She purposely moved her chair a little further away from Beta as the Alpha growled. "Leave her alone, Beta, I still plan on keeping her. I'll just need to find another for a child. She'll remain in her room, and I'll use her until she dies."

Gamma let out a soft chuckle. "You know she could be immortal, and outlive you, right?" She winced, hearing the loud growl from Alpha, which shook the room. She couldn't help placing her hands over her ears. She slowly lowered her hands as silence filled the room.

"Take her back to her room, Gamma." She waited until he had hold of her arm to stand up, and followed him out of the room as Beta spoke. "Could always just kill her. What good is she now to you?" She heard another growl before the door shut, and Gamma was escorting her back to her room.

She stood in her room looking at him curiously, and saw actual remorse cross Gamma's face. "I'm sorry." She watched him shut the door with a frown. "Me too."
