The Alpha’s Substitute Mate

Isabella

“He hates us” my wolf Sia whimpered “He’s a bad mate” “He doesn’t want us” She kept wailing

I turned on the hot shower, stepped into the bathtub, and allowed the water to drench my body and tears. I picked up a sponge and started scrubbing my body trying to wash away his touch. I scrubbed in between my legs trying to wash away his seed and scent and all the pain he left there.

It hurts!!!

It was so painful that I could barely walk.

He had his way with me and fucked me like an animal, and threw me out like a whore.

He had gotten what he wanted: ” To warm his bed” Was it really written on that contract and yet Dad signed it and sent me to my death?”

I said I was done crying but I started all over again. I slid down in the shower till I was sitting on the tub, I hugged my knees and let the sob rip from my body. When I couldn’t cry anymore, I came out of the bathroom naked and went to the closet, wore my yellow knitted pajamas, and crawled into the bed.

I was too exhausted to think anymore so I closed my eyes and slept off.

I woke up in the morning and tried standing up from the bed but I was feeling very tired and the pain surging all over my body but it wasn’t as much as before. Still trying to strengthen my body and stand up, someone knocked on the door

” Who is it?” I called out in a weak and cracked voice

” My Lady, it’s me, Violet.”

I managed to stand but my legs were shaking from the pain of yesterday and I opened the door checking the hallway suspiciously to make sure no one was behind her.

She was carrying a tray with a glass of water and a tiny stainless cup that was covered and she was looking at me worried.

She got into the room and I shut the door and went to sit down on the bed

“Alpha Arden said I should bring these drugs to you,” she said and handed the glass of water and opened the stainless cup, and gave me the drugs.

I nodded and put the drugs in my mouth before drinking the water.

” Thank you, V,” I gave out a grateful smile and returned the glass cup to her.

” My lady, are you sick? You don’t look quite good, and your eyes are swollen as if you cried all night.” She came and sat close to me and touched my forehead as if she was checking my temperature.

” Yes, I’m fine, just a slight fever,” I lied but how do I explain what happened to her?

But I wanted to spill my heart out about everything that happened last night and what a cruel man Arden was. But I couldn’t. I was so ashamed of myself.

Violet might be my friend but she had been in this pack way before me and her loyalty to the pack. And also Arden was now her new Alpha.

And even if I share my secrets with her, he could use his Alpha authority to force her to tell him everything. And that would mean putting her in trouble.

I sighed knowing that my secret and pain are best with me.

” My Lady, I actually forgot that Alpha Arden has requested that you move to the Alpha’s floor and a room would be prepared for you there. So I will take you to the room and then come back here and pack up your stuff and bring it to your new chamber.” She said excitedly and held my hand as if she just announced a juicy piece of information.

I was shocked and stared at her in fear and the memories of last night how Arden took my virginity came flooding into my head. Tears welled up in my eyes as I digested this piece of news. Sia let out a small wail in my head but I was too busy fighting my own emotions to comfort her.

And I consoled myself ” I am stronger than this, I am strong and I believe certainly everything would soon be over. I believe these challenges are what make life interesting, overcoming, and beautiful. I believed I would overcome everything in due time. I kept assuring myself but deep down I knew everything will never be okay!”

I knew moving up to that floor means subjecting my body and dignity to him. Being his sex slave he would discard after toying with it.

Being at his mercy and constantly abused. But not like I have a choice or a say in it.

I looked at Violet and said, ” Please, help me pack while I shower and we can leave together.”

Violet was more than happy to help me pack my belongings and I left and went to have my shower. More like mentally preparing my mind for the worst.

I took my time to shower and noticed that my genital part was swollen and sting and I knew he bruised me on the inside.

After having bathed I stepped out and noticed that Violet had already gone deep in packing. I wore my undies and wore jean shorts and a pink tank top that was comfortable. I was no longer in the mood of dressing to impress my cruel mate.

When Violet finished packing we left my room and got into the elevator to the Alpha’s floor actually to my Doom.

We arrived and Violet led the way and opened the door that was not so far from Arden’s own and gestured for me to come in. I entered and noticed that my chamber was bigger and more beautiful than my former room.

And there was a portrait of me and Arden in the wedding outfit of yesterday hanging on the wall.

I pointed at the portrait and Violet came to my side and hugged me and told me it was Queen Selena that hung it there. I didn’t like this idea at all like I would have to stare at the horrible face of my mate and that cold emerald green eyes of his

” It’s so beautiful,” Violet said with her trademark smile.

” It’s as if you two are meant for each other like the moon goddess took her time to pair the two of you together.”

I looked at her and shook my head if only she knew that my fate is cursed…
