Chapter 3 THREE

**Leilani's POV**

"Alpha please stop!" I snarled at him, "have some shame..."

Instead of listening to me, he licked his lips and continued advancing towards me until he was only a breath away.

"Somebody help please!" I yelled as soon as his hands connected with my upper arm, but instead of letting go of me in alarm, he laughed, baring his teeth at me.

"No one would hear you baby girl, that's why I chose this room for you." He said with a smug smirk across his face. Wait what?

"Please..."

"Shut up, shut up or I'd hit you so hard across your head that your brains would pop." He growled in my face. I flinched away.

Shutting my eyes closed, I laid flat against the wall, hoping that whatever it was that he wanted to do with me would come to an end, and soon.

I shrunk away from his stale breath, listening to him mutter indecipherable curses under his breath just as his finger slipped into my nightie and into my vagina; I shook, nearly convulsing in disgust.

His little grunts turned into full blown pants as he started thrusting his finger into me. I felt insanely irritated, I wanted to squeeze the breath out of his head, but I couldn't seem to move, I couldn't do a thing. I was even too irritated to open my eyes.

Suddenly his panting came to a stop and he left me alone; I gingerly opened my eyes thinking he was done with me, only to come face to face with a sick smirk on his face and his penis hanging out of his pants.

I got enraged.

In anger, I pushed away from the wall, ignoring him as he barked out in command; "Lisa stay back down!"

"No!" I replied with an equal fierceness that I never knew I possessed . "I am not going to allow you to use me like a piece of shit, moreover my name is Leilani, and not Lisa or whatever you said."

"Do I look like I care about your name?" He growled again, standing a little too close to me, it made me want to gag.

As soon as I felt his dirty hands trying to run up the length of my exposed legs, I quickly grabbed at him, and pushed him to the door.

As if that wasn't enough for me, I walked up to him, who had a surprised look on his face, picked up several small flower vases in the room and flung them at him until one of them connected with his head with a loud smashing sound.

"Do not ever try to lay a finger on me ever again!" I growled in annoyance. My voice sounded weird, even to me I sounded animalistic.

"Do you understand me?" I snarled again but he didn't say a word. He laid still, motionless, and even his motionless state irked me. In blind rage, I hauled another flower vase at him, took the keys from his hands and fled the room.

I never saw him for days after that day, but I can promise you that I was meted with more than enough punishment soon after.

**^**

A few days after the incident with Alpha Joyner in my room, Sam and I were transferred out of our respective rooms in the palace to the slave's quarters. We were also stripped off our ranks and told that we had become commoners.

At first it came to me as a shock, until I realized that this could be his way of punishing me for not giving into his whims.

But why involve my sister?

Soon after, we were given uniforms and asked that we began our daily duties as slaves in the palace. We were made to clean, wash, dust, and in fact made to do everything that slaves usually did.

To worsen matters, we were treated as slaves but not fed as slaves; in fact we were fed like outcasts with only one small serving of food per day.

It annoyed me that he would be so petty as to involve my younger sister into something that was well between him and myself; and more enraged at the fact that no one even bothered to talk him out of this, not even my uncles who were also high ranked members of this pack.

There were even times I cursed at him, cursed at death for taking my parents, cursed at life itself for being this unfair and even contemplated suicide, but I couldn't bring myself to take my own life knowing fully well that I had a younger sister who still needed me, even more then I needed myself.

Our ill treatment doubled over time until one day a maid came to ask us to change into fresh sets of clothes and were given good food on Joyner's orders.

Thinking that this was the end of our woes, we had quickly dressed up happily, munched on our sweet tasting plate of pasta and pesto Caesar salad and hopped up soon after, ready to go see him.

I was surprised as to why he would suddenly have a change of heart but I didn't voice out my complaints, deciding to go on with the flow.

We were escorted by a bulky bodyguard as we slowly walked towards the throne room, but as soon as we walked into the room, the door was quickly shut behind us, and we were left with Alpha Joyner and a few other men whom we had never seen before.

"Those are the girls." Joyner's thick voice suddenly cut through my fogged up mind, leaving me to wonder who these men were and why we were being introduced to them.

"They look fine, but what are their ages?" The more built one amongst the two sitting down asked gruffly, pointing to Samantha and I.

Joyner quickly shrugged, mumbling an almost inaudible; "seventeen and nineteen," to the men who nodded in approval.

I wanted to tell them that he didn't get our ages right, but I wasn't sure of what they needed the information for.

I wanted to yell at him for degrading us like this but I didn't, I couldn't do it because I knew it would incur more wrath from him, and I didn't want that to happen, at least for the sake of Sam.

"That's twenty thousand dollars." Alpha Joyner said suddenly, which made me look up at him in confusion. Twenty thousand dollars for what?

"They're pretty, I'll pay fifteen." The bulky guy replied, casting lustful glances at us.

It was then that it struck me. Joyner wanted to sell us out! I quickly looked at Sam who also looked as worried as I was; and from the look on her face, I could tell that she already understood what was going on.

"Ahhh, fifteen is a little too small but I'll take it. I no longer find them useful around here." Joyner exclaimed with a smug smile across his face.

I doubled over in shock; like literally doubled over.

I couldn't believe that he would do this, that he would try to sell us out simply because we were involved in a major misunderstanding. He had no rights to do this, absolutely no rights at all!

"So if we finalize the deal right now, will they come with us?" The bulky guy voiced out again, and this time I turned to really look at him.

He looked hideous with a wide scar running across the length of his face and a deep Zigzag like scar on his chin. Even the boys behind him looked just as scary with yellowed teeth and eyes, and were dressed so tatteredly, you'd think they were ex convicts.

"Yes they will, this instant." Alpha Joyner replied suddenly, quickly bringing me out of my reverie.

From the side of my eye, I could notice Sam desperately trying to get my attention, and as soon as our eyes met, she gestured to me that we leave the room.

I discreetly nodded at her, took a few steps backwards and fled. We hadn't even ran for a while when we were suddenly grabbed from behind and literally dragged back into the throne room.

"Please let us go..." I whimpered, thrashing in my abductor's hold when suddenly I felt something sharp nip at the skin of my neck.

It made me suddenly so weak that I fell limply against him. My vision blurred, everything began to happen in twos right in front of my eye.

Before I slipped into unconsciousness, I saw an ugly looking guy repeat what they had done to me to Sam.

I could see him smile evilly at me as he injected a scarlet colored liquid into her neck, and I shuddered, knowing that we were practically moving from the frying pan to the fire...
