Mated To The Alpha Kings

Delaney’s POV ~

Walking down the stairs, I saw a triumphant smirk on Rakels lips, making him look sexy as ever. If Cassie were here, she’d have jumped him the moment she saw him. I subconsciously rolled my eyes at him, does he think I’ll remain locked in this house just because he said so? Who the heck does he think he is? The Alpha? If he’s everyone’s Alpha, he’s definitely not mine!

Escaping is out of the question, I know I won’t get far if I try to flee, so I can only come up with something else. I plan to make him regret locking me in this house, I’ll make him go crazy in his house to the extent that he will throw me out himself.

I’ve tried to come up with something but came out blank, I need to find out everything I need to know about him, everything he hates, what makes him angry- Of course, I already know he’s possessive and jealous since he got mad at the mere thought of me masturbating while thinking about someone else and just by seeing the mark on my neck. Likewise, I would use that to my advantage too, It’s a good thing he isn’t planning on ‘mating’ with me as he has said, till the mark wears off. I hope it doesn’t wear off soon, so I can make my plan work. To accomplish that, I need to find a way to make him allow Mira to visit me.

Taking my seat at the far end of the table, we had the most awkward dinner ever. And by ‘awkward’ I mean, Rakel, ignoring my existence and focusing his attention on his food. He kept heaping food on his plate, making me wonder if he can finish it. I took a small portion on my plate but couldn’t eat, I was busy staring at him in awe!

In no time, he has cleared the food on his plate and kept heaping more. The only thought in my head is, ‘what the heck? Is that how werewolves eat?’

I was so focused on staring at him and didn’t even realize he has dropped his spoon, he was now staring at me.

“Eat Delaney.”

I jumped “Huh?”

“Didn’t anyone tell you it’s rude staring at someone like that? Especially when the person is eating.”

My cheeks reddened, I glanced down at my hand and bit my lips. When I glance up the second time, I saw him stacking up my plate too.

My eyes widened”No! I won’t be able to finish that!”

“Finish everything, Delaney, you don’t want me to punish you, do you? Besides, you’re so thin for my liking. Now, eat!” He said coldly.

‘Yeesh, such a cold bastard’ I thought, picking up my spoon.

Suddenly, the table became dangerously tense, “What did you just say?”

My eyes grew wide, realizing I said that out loud. “I– I said thank you for the food.”

He only stared at me, waiting.

With a sigh, I started eating slowly, it felt weird having him watching my every move, I mean I’ve been eating alone for a long time and his sitting there made me unable to eat. I forced myself anyway because he wouldn’t let me be till he was satisfied.

Halfway through, I was stuffed. I couldn’t eat anymore. I set the spoon on the table and was about to thank him, but it seems Rakel wasn’t having that.

“Keep eating Delaney.” He said, glaring at me,

“I can’t! I’m so full already, I don’t think I’ll be able to walk to my room in this state.”

“I said, eat!”

I stared at him with a pouting lip, when I saw he wasn’t going to budge, I let a teardrop from my eyes “, please? I’m so full…”

He instantly gave up with a groan, “Fine, just don’t start with the waterworks!”

Before I could thank him, he got up then walk up to me, “It’s time.”

I blinked “Time?”

“For your punishment, Delaney.” He stated, as a matter of fact, leaving me utterly confused.

“Punishment? But I didn’t try to run!”

It was now his turn to smirk, “No, Delaney, you didn’t, but you lied.”

My brows creased together as my brain tried to grasp what he was saying. My eyes grew wide when I recall the white lie I told earlier, calling him a ‘cold bastard’

“Umm, Rakel?” I called, panicking. What kind of punishment will he give me? In my entire life, no one has ever punished me before, even my stepdad!

“What?” He barked.

“You can’t punish me!” I said, getting up to my feet.

He then faced me with a raised brow, I took that as my go-ahead “Well, you see… I’m still not strong enough for any punishment, I lost a lot of blood and Mira said I need enough rest.”

I shifted uncomfortably under his gaze as he stared, did I do something wrong again? Jeez, why does his gaze seem unnerving?

“By punishment, do you understand what I mean, Delaney?” He finally said, and I nodded, “Enlighten me, please.” He crossed his arms while waiting.

“You want me to run without stopping till you say so, or force me to eat a large portion of food or lock me in the closet or -”

“Pfft! Stop! Please, just stop.” Rakel suddenly cut me off, looking as if he was trying hard not to laugh. I frown slightly, am I missing something? What’s funny about what I just said? I’m usually smart, but ever since I met these big bad Alpha kings, I feel like my brain had become mush.

After a while, he managed to control himself and then gaze at me with amusement “Those are not punishments Delaney, there are punishments which are much worse than that…” He paused seeing as my eyes grew wide, “you don’t need to worry about it tonight, we’ll postpone your punishment till next time, you can go take your rest now.”

I breathed out relief but instead of leaving, I remained standing there, gazing at him expectantly.

He sighed “What?”

“I can’t walk, you overfed me.”

He ran his hand through his jet black hair, and grumbled something beneath his breath, the next minute, he lifted me from the floor – princess-like.

I squealed at the sudden action but quickly got over it by wrapping my hands around his neck. I didn’t want to, but the feel of his muscles beneath my palms was affecting me in a way that left me shocked. The hell! Do I find Rakel attractive? He is the second guy affecting me in this way! What is it with me and these Alpha Kings? They must be using some kind of voodoo on me?

I watched as his muscles flex while climbing the stairs, he doesn’t seem to be winded, which left me awed.

All too soon, we arrived at my room door, he was about to go in when I shouted: “Stop!”

He halted, then glanced down at me with a raised brow. ‘Has anyone ever told him that that is hot?’ I thought.

Surprisingly, he chuckled, “No, Delaney. No one has ever told me that, they’ll be too scared to anyway.”

My jaw dropped open, shit! I thought out loud, again!

I flushed bright red and wiggled in his arms, making him set me down on my feet.

“I… It was not my intention to say that…” Shaking my head, I turned to my room, ran inside, and shut the door loudly behind me. I was so embarrassed that it took a while to calm down.

Ahh, I didn’t even ask for what I wanted. I facepalmed at the thought. I wanted to ask for clothes, I can’t keep wearing his shirt and no undies, ugh.

I plunk onto the bed with a sigh while replaying everything that just happened. I’ve deduced that almost everything makes Rakel uncomfortable, especially when it comes to tears. I won’t be surprised if I find out that he’s the kind of guy who sleeps with a woman a night and that’s it. He would be helpless towards things to do with emotions.

With that thought in mind, I began drafting a list in my head, of things to make him go crazy. I finally slept off after rolling on the bed for a long time.

~ ~ ~

I woke up with a start the next morning, feeling disoriented for a minute.

Remembering my ‘plan’ which I drafted out last night, I jumped out of the bed and ran out of the room, hoping Rakel hasn’t gone out.

I was almost at the stairs when someone cleared his throat behind me. “Where are you off to this morning, Delaney? Don’t tell me you’ve forgotten everything I told you yesterday.”

I whipped around only to see him coming out of a room. He closed the door behind him, crossed his hand, and gave me his full attention. His eyes flickered down to bare thighs, stopping chest for a minute before glancing at my face.

I blushed slightly, embarrassed by the way I looked. I crossed my hand over my chest, trying to put my plan into action. I can imagine my morning hair all over the place since I didn’t comb it before coming out.

“No, I haven’t forgotten Rakel,” I replied, walking to him.

“Then? Is that how you usually wake up? Or you couldn’t wait to see me this morning?” he muttered mockingly.

I stopped in his front and glared at him, I wanted to snap at him but instead, I grabbed his large hands Can I ask you something, Rakel?”

He seemed shocked by my action and then suspicious, “You just asked.”

“Rakel! Come on!”

“Fine, but remember every question has a reward, if I answer, you must reward me.”

“…” I stared at him, speechless for a moment, and uh nodded, “can you ask Mira to stop by today? I don’t know anyone here, I’ll be bored on my own with no company.”

His expression darkened instantly, “Are you planning on using Mira to escape? That’s impossible Delaney.”

My eyes nearly popped out of their socket, “What? No! I’m not planning anything!”

He scrutinizes me for a moment then gave a curt nod, “What else?”

“I need clothes and underwear, I can’t keep wearing this,” I said, pointing down at my cloth.

Seconds passed, and he abruptly entered his room, shutting the door behind him. My brows knitted together in a frown. What now?

I contemplated leaving, but before I move an inch, the door opened. Rakel stepped out holding some clothes in his hands. He passed it over to me, “These are my shirts, you can have them, and you don’t need underwear while you’re staying in this house.”

My jaw dropped. How can one be so shameless?

“Umm, Rakel-”

Before I could finish my statement, he moved. The next instant, I felt my back hit the cold wall, my hands pinned above… I was pinned to the wall! The clothes lay on the floor, I worry that they might get stained, but it seems Rakel doesn’t mind.

“Now, Delaney. I believe I’ve granted two wishes of yours, don’t you think it’s time to reward me?”
