Chapter 36
ONE WEEK LATER
Reign’S POV
It’s been a week since Alpha Hardin and I had that argument that led to me hitting him. The moment he left my room, I had expected him to send his guards to arrest me for disrespecting him but till today, nothing of that sort has happened and I’m curious.
He should be angry and he should be punishing me for my actions. What I did was abominable.
Raising my hand against the Alpha is as bad as it sounds. It’s not an offense that has to be taken lightly and that’s why I’m curious about his sudden silence. My daily routine this past week has been from my room to the cafeteria to my post and back to my room.
No friends. Well…except Ma’am Sophia who never fails to check on me daily and Kylie who often sneaks into my bedroom to see me without her brother’s consent. Nothing I say will stop her from coming and I can only imagine what he will do when he finds out about our little meetings.
I’m happy that he hasn’t come to taunt me at my post or summoned me to clean his entire chamber, but in a way, I miss him.
I miss the way his presence makes my heart summersault in my chest and cause blood to sing in my veins, I miss hearing his deep dominant Alpha voice.
I honestly miss him and I wish I could see just a glimpse of him.
I bypass Anastasia and Giselle as I head towards the servant quarters and they don’t look too good. Ana’s always well kept hair is ruffled and if looks could kill, then I’ll be six feet by now. Ma’am Sophia told me they were punished severely for hitting me and I can understand why they are both giving me deadly stares right now.
I only hope that they have learnt their lesson.
I walk along the dark well cut lawn with just a torch light in my hand and I can swear that someone is following me. I don’t know, but I just hope he or she is not going to hurt me.
I hear footsteps echo behind me and when I turn to look, my eyes fall on a very tall and mighty looking man whose right arm along seems bigger than my entire body. I swallow dryly in fear as I take a step backwards, hoping that he doesn’t want to harm me.
I don’t like the way he is smirking at me.
“He…he…hello” I stutter with my most tiny voice and I can feel adrenaline rush through my entire body.
Flight, fright and fight response takes over me, but let’s just ignore the fight because right now I’m not in the state to fight, my arm is fractured.
“Hello Reign” He greets with a cocky smile as he takes two steps closer to me.
I take three steps back.
“Why are you running away from me? I’m not going to hurt you, I juts want us to have a little chat and why not some adult fun?”
Adult fun, I know exactly what he means by adult fun.
Holy Moon goddess, why am I always in this kind of situations? If I’m not being bullied, I’m being molested. What is my offense?
“I… I.. don’t have anything to say to you”
“Well, I do. Like the fact that you are very sexy and I would like to know what it feels like to have you moaning my name in pleasure as I thrust deep into you.”
“Get away from me!” I scold as I shoot him with the torch in my hand and take on my heels at top speed. He equally takes on his heels and follows me closely.
Suddenly, I trip on a stone and fall on the ground hitting my fractured arm and bruising various parts of my body.
The Pain!
Pain is all I feel and he just makes everything worse when he gets on my body and tries to pin me down.
“Let me go! Somebody hel….” I start to scream but he quickly closes my mouth and my scream ends up in pathetic muffles.
He pins both my arms above my head and I scream in agony when an excruciating pain pierces through my fractured arm. I trash violently to set myself free to no avail.
His arms alone are stronger than all the bones in my body and trying to wiggle myself out of his strong hold is nothing but a waste of time.
I almost die when he starts fumbling with his trouser belt and I use that opportunity to scream.
“Somebody help me!” I scream in agony, hoping that someone will come to my rescue.
Once the trouser is off, he rips off my jacket and blouse and I’m left with just my bra.
“I knew you were this gorgeous Reign, I can’t wait…” He doesn’t finish his statement because the next thing that happens is him flying off me.
I didn’t know werewolves could fly.
I crawl backwards and try to cover myself with the tattered clothes as I cry harder.
“Reign” I hear someone call and when I look up, my eyes meet with a pair very familiar dark brown eyes.
It’s Alpha Hardin.
I just keep crying as I look up at him and struggle to cover myself. He turns around and walks over to the man who tried to rape me. That’s when I realize that the man didn’t fly on his, Alpha Hardin made him fly off me.
Alpha Hardin lifts the man up by the collar of his shirt with one arm like he weighs nothing and gives him a hard punch with the other clenched fist and he topples over and falls on the ground yet again.
“How dare you?” He asks as he gives him a dangerous kick in the stomach that causes blood to spill from his mouth.
“I’m sorry Alpha, it wasn’t intentional. I honestly don’t know what came over me”
“You’re going to know once a good amount of silver is applied to these bruises on your body”
He sneers in a deadly tone as he gives him one last kick in the stomach.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
I just turn my face away from the scene.
Soon, a few guards appear at the scene and rush over to Alpha Hardin and the man who’s grunting in pain while holding his stomach.
He looks badly hurt but I don’t feel sorry for him.
That man could have raped me if Alpha Hardin didn’t show up and he would not have been sorry for his actions.
Serves him right!
Once the guards take the man away, Alpha Hardin walks over to me and I just bow my head down.
He stoops by myside and looks at me intensely. I can’t help but wonder what’s running on his mind.
I flinch in fear when he tries to touch me and he pauses and let’s out a heavy sigh of frustration.
“Look at me” He orders and I quietly raise my head up to look at him.
There’s like fifty different kinds of emotions swimming in his eyes right now.
He carefully tucks a few strands of hair behind my ear and gently caresses my cheeks.
The butterflies…
The sparks…
Holy Moon goddess!
“Did he touch you?” He asks concerned and I just silently shake my head as more tears spill down my cheeks. He checks my body and I can only sees his eyes grow darker each time he sees a bruise.
Why is he so mad right now?
“Did he do this to you?”
“No, I fell while I was running”
“It’s the same thing. You have to meet the pack doctor”
The pack doctor must be tired of attending to me by now. It’s always me and my problems here and there.
“That won’t necessary, they are just bruises”
“This isn’t up for a debate Reign, come here” He carries me bridal style in his arms and walks out of the servant quarters.
I cuddle up in his protective arms and right now, I feel like I’m floating!
This definitely going to be another long night of fantasy for me.
