ANNABELLA’S POV
I flipped my eyes when I heard the sound of the opening door.” Your mother told me you haven’t eaten anything.” Did he even care?
Why did that even matter?
” Come on, it’s your favorite, your mother made it for you,” I didn’t know he remembered my favorite food.
” Where is Zion?” I asked and he sighed. ” Not now, just eat your food.” He said. ” You haven’t done anything to him, have you?” I didn’t want anything to happen to him, at least not because of me. ” Leave it there.” He ordered the omega and she walked over and placed the tray on the bed.
I still have no idea why I was locked up in this room, and why they didn’t want me to contact Roman.
” What do you want with me?” I didn’t know how to put it. I was still confused as to what happened. Everything happened so fast that I didn’t even get to process the whole thing. No one was telling me anything.
Everyone was behaving weirdly and telling me to calm down. ” Whatever money I collected from Alpha Roman is going to be returned to him, you will be set free.” He said suddenly and I shook my head, he was joking, wasn’t he?
I stepped down from the bed with a puzzled look on my face.” Did you just say set free?” I asked with a frown on my face. Why would he lock me up if I was indeed going to be free?
” You didn’t want this marriage l, remember?” He grabbed my shoulder but I stepped away in seconds.” You don’t have to be afraid anymore. You will be free.”
” I don’t want to be free!” I yelled and a hard look appeared in his eyes. ” I don’t want to be set free,” I repeated.
” Alpha Roman can’t hurt you, he will not be able to hurt you as long as I’m here,” he said with a caring time but I knew too much to fall for it.
” No,” I said sternly as tears clouded my eyes. ” I was never a prisoner in the Turner pack,” I told him, Roman never treated me unfairly. He was the angle that made my life better.” I have arranged everything, alpha Roman will not be a problem anymore rest assured.” where was all this coming from?
Why was he suddenly behaving like this? what was all this talk about?
I would have been happy and accepted his offer if it had been a few months back. But now, I belong with Roman and no one could take me away from him.
” What do you want from me?” I knew he didn’t care about me in the past, I remember how he made me marry Roman in place of Olivia but I was grateful for that offer. Thanks to him I found a mate who truly cared about me.
Because of this, I became the devil’s little angel.
” Tell me,” I demanded. Why was he suddenly interested in getting me away from Roman?
As hard as it was I couldn’t bring myself to believe a word he said. How could I forget the king of man was?
He didn’t care about me and that was the truth..” I only came here because of mom and now that mom is okay, I want to go back.” to my new home, my eyes filled with tears and my hand curled beside me.
Locking me up in here was absurd, he couldn’t possibly force me to stay here, and why would he do that?
I was never enough for him.
” He will come for me if you don’t let me go” I threatened him, I knew how much he was feared including my father.
We both knew what would happen if Roman came down here and met me like this.
” He has no right to come get you because you are not moving an inch from here
This is your home.” I chuckled because I found his words absurd. Did he have a short memory or what?” You sold me to him, you forced me to marry him and now you want me back in this pack. ” like I was some important member of this pack!
” Listen to me you spoilt brat, you are going to stay in this pack and carry the next alpha.” I would have he was joking if not for the serious look on his face.
The next what?
A slight frown stayed at the back of my eyes as I narrowed my eyes in confusion.
” What are you talking about?” I was confused and didn’t understand what he meant but something in my head told me I wasn’t going to be happy with whatever it was he was saying.
He cleared his throat and took a step forward ” Initially, I thought to make you the surrogate mother of the next alpha of this pack but finding out you have a wolf and with such a powerful gift, you can as well do more than that.” He explained in a clear tone but I wasn’t sure I got what he was trying to put across. ” Olivia can’t have a kid, the pack can’t depend on an outsider.” My eyes widened as everything started making sense.
” You are my youngest daughter therefore you have to help Olivis out.” this was ridiculous!
” This doesn’t make sense.” I shook my head as the words came out loud and clear.
Did he understand what he was saying?
” It does, trust me,” he assured me as if it was okay to have kids my my sister and her mate like I was some baby-making machine.
” Olivia and Summer are married.” and there was no way I was going to do something like this.
How the fuck did he want me to carry Summer’s first child? Summer was married to Olivia after he rejected me and now he wanted me to get back with him like nothing ever happened? Was that what all this was about?
” Est you good before it gets cold.”
” To hell with the food!”
” Tell me this is a sick joke.” Because he wasn’t making any sense.” Do you even think for a second that I will let Summer touch me?” where the hell did he get that idea from?
” It’s not up to you. Summer doesn’t have a problem with that.” He said and the door pulled open, Summer was standing right at the door. Looking the same as always but one thing was missing.
The feeling I always carried in my heart for him was no longer there, I didn’t find him attractive like I used to, his presence made me feel absolutely nothing unlike before.
” With your abilities, there is no doubt you are going to give this pack the most powerful alpha ever.” He nodded with a smile.
” Olivia and Summer are couples,” I whispered. I didn’t know why but I suddenly couldn’t find my voice. The whole thing has left me speechless.
” I never said he is going to mark you, you will just have to carry his first child and if possible the next one.” I stared up at him in tears as I couldn’t keep them in anymore. Did he say ‘just?’
Carry his first child and more?
I didn’t want to believe what I was hearing. Was that the plan all along? Was my mom ever sick?
My father expected to sleep with my ex-mate who rejected me for my twin sister. How hilarious!
” You think it’s okay to do all this?” What kind of father did I end up with? He didn’t care about me or anything that had to do with me and now he wanted me to carry the next alpha with my sister’s mate, her wedded husband!
First, he sold me off like a piece of jewelry, and now this?
” And how did you know I was the right person for the task?”
” You are Summer’s fated mate, therefore you two have a natural bond. And of course, your incredible abilities with your alpha bloodline make you a perfect candidate.” I fell on the bed in seconds as tears drained down my face.
” You don’t have to worry because Olivia is in it and no one in the pack will know anything about this.” I couldn’t believe this man was my father.
” You want me to be a mistress to my sister’s husband and you think it’s okay.” How did I see this coming?
My wolf, my ability. Everything was about power.
” Are you even my father?” Who was this man in front of me?
Why was it that my feelings didn’t matter to him?
He made Summer reject me calling me a wolf-less she-wolf and incapable. What did I ever do to deserve this?
” I can’t believe this is happening.” I shook my head.’ You have to get out of here, Bella ‘ Eve said in an angry tone and stood up from the bed in a flash.” I’m leaving.” I said but before I could take a step, two men entered the room and held me back.” You are going nowhere.” He warned, using his alpha tone on me which strangely didn’t work on me just like it did in the past.
” You will stay in Summer’s room from now on and until you come to your senses you are not allowed to step out.” He sneered.” You can’t do that, I will never have anything to do with Summer. Not in …” Before I could finish my words a slap landed on my face.
” You don’t dare speak back at me, you ungrateful child.” He taunted and I smiled painfully. He called me ungrateful just like he did seven months ago.” I put my life away for the pack and now you call me ungrateful? You are very funny, aren’t you?” I didn’t know why the goddess made him my father but I wish he was never my father.
” I wish you were not my family.” I spit blood out of my mouth and he was about to hit me again when my mother got in the room and held his hand ” Stop hitting her, will you?” she scolded.
“You are a disappointment to this pack.” He pointed a finger at me, angry for what exactly?.” What have I not done for this pack, alpha Christopher?”
” You can’t talk to your father like that.” I stepped away when she was about to touch me.
” You should know that Roman will come for me,” I said with a strong gave but in truth, my heart was bleeding.
