A cursed Alpha

Gasping loud, Natalie clasped her palms over her mouth, feigning surprise. "Oh my gosh, you clumsy slave, what have you done to our honored guest?"

I was already trembling in fear as I tried to help the guest wipe the wine that stained her sparkling dress. "I'm deeply sorry, ma'am. Please forgive..."

Before I could complete the words, she already landed a resounding slap on my cheeks. My eyes stung with tears, and I couldn't barely breathe because of the tears that ran down my cheeks.

"Are you blind? Do you know how much I f****** got this outfit that I'm wearing? In your entire life, you would never be able to see such a huge amount of money." Harper yelled at her.

I sniffed. "I didn't mean to do that. I'm sorry."

"Shut the hell up. You don't speak when I'm speaking." Harper raised her hand to slap me again and shut my eyes, waiting for the slap to land on my cheeks.

Surprisingly, I didn't get any slaps in a few seconds. Gradually, I opened my eyes and saw the handsome looking young man sitting beside her, holding her hand in the air. Harper narrowed her eyes. "Alpha Atlas?"

I blinked my eyes rapidly, admiring the handsome looking young man. "So, he's an Alpha?" I mumbled under my breath.

"Don't you dare lay a hand on her again." He warned Harper.

My eyes widened in shock. In my entire life, this is the first time that someone has stood up for me. I have never been defended before, except for today. "Thank you, Alpha."

He turned to me with the mildest look, and for some reason, I felt drawn to him, but I managed to hold myself. Natalie was boiling in annoyance, she quickly sprang up. "Alpha Atlas, you shouldn't defend this b****. She was so clumsy a while ago."

"Natalie, shut up." Alpha Marcus snapped at her. Glaring at him, she sat quietly and stared at me with so much hatred. If her eyes were guns, I would have dropped dead right there.

Harper growled in annoyance. "My Alpha, you should be blaming her. This slave right here just ruined my expensive outfit. You don't expect me to hug and kiss her for that, do you, Atlas?"

"She just apologized, why are you still making things difficult for her?" He sneered at her.

I bowed at them once more before running out of the place. Tears kept streaming down my cheeks. Why am I so unfortunate? Of all the mates in the world, why do I have to be mated to Alpha Marcus, who would reject me in a snap? I've always dreamt of being with my mate and gaining my wolf. Worst of all, I made an enemy with a powerful guest, Harper. How would I go rogue if she decides to hunt me down?

Meanwhile, Alpha Marcus turned to Atlas, whose face was expressionless. "I'm truly sorry for what happened between my maid and your mate."

"It's fine!" Atlas snapped at him, and he nodded slowly.

The rest of the party was eventless, but Harper couldn't get what happened off her mind. First, her Alpha had been staring at me, and I still had to stain her dress with wine. She wanted to know who exactly I was.

At exactly 5pm, Alpha Atlas left the Pack house of the Night Wind Pack. They hopped into the Bentley, and it drove out of the compound as they bid goodbye.

There was silence between Harper and Alpha Atlas as they drove down to the city. Atlas was drowned in thoughts and Allison, while Harper was thinking of how he had spoken to her at the party.

"Atlas, I want to talk to you."

"Harper, I wish to speak with you."

They chorused, and gulped simultaneously. Alpha Atlas continued. "You can speak first."

"Okay. Why were you defending the slave instead of standing up for me? You spoke to me in such a manner just because of a slave, Atlas." Harper cried out.

Alpha Atlas scoffed. "Harper, I would appreciate it if you don't try to hurt that girl again. She apologized, and you still went ahead to slap her."

"I can't believe you, Atlas. The Alpha Atlas that I know careless or not for people that are related to him, talk more of a stranger." She snorted.

Alpha Atlas only kept mute with a faint smile. He just couldn't get her off his mind, and would do anything to get to know who Allison is.

On the other hand, I walked down the stairs with a basket full of dirty clothes. I was walking to the laundry room downstairs. Natalie met me at the stairs, and blocked my way. "What do you want, Natalie? I really don't have the strength to do this now."

"You, slut! You must really think that you would become the Luna of the Night Wind Pack, right? I will stop at nothing until you're thrown out of this castle." She spoke in between gritted teeth.

I sighed. "I've never wanted to become Luna. You can have him all to yourself. I'm not concerned about..."

"You think I wouldn't find out that you are actually his mate, huh? Scheming witch!" She growled at me.

I replied. "Stay off my path, Natalie."

Immediately, we heard Alpha Marcus's voice from a distance and his footsteps were approaching. Natalie smirked mischievously as she quickly brought out a knife from the pockets of her jeans. "Watch the show."

Before I could say a word, she had already stabbed herself with the knife and dropped it on the ground, right beside me, before rolling down the stairs.

"Natalie!" I rushed down the stairs. Then, Alpha Marcus rushed to the scene and saw her bleeding profusely.

He grabbed her by the wrist. "Nat, are you okay? What happened?"

"She... She stabbed me, and pushed me down the stairs." Natalie pointed at me, and I became shocked. What was she driving at?

"Me?" I freaked out.

Tears rolled down my cheeks as Natalie continued pointing at me. She was bleeding profusely.

"I didn't... What are you talking about, Natalie? I wasn't the one who stabbed you." I tried to defend myself, but Alpha Marcus grabbed my neck.

His grip was so tight that I was slowly choking. "You scheming witch, how dare you hurt Natalie?"

Tears continued streaming down my cheeks. They were all staring at me with disdain. Was I really expecting any of them to side with me? Dumb me! How could I overrate myself like that? "Please believe me, Marcus. I didn't do that to her. She was the one who..."

"If you didn't do that to her, then who the f*** stabbed her? I knew it! You are so jealous of her because she's going to become the Luna that you will never be. I gave you a chance to beg, but you threw it away. Do you think you can eat your cake and have it?" He sneered at me.

I continued sobbing as I was on my knees right in front of Alpha Marcus. The Pack's doctor rushed to the bleeding Natalie and exclaimed. "Wolf's bane?"

My eyes widened in shock. Wolf's bane? Did she want to end her life? Why would she apply Wolf's bane on the knife she used to stab herself? Did she risk her life just to frame me? I was smacked out of my thoughts when Alpha Marcus yelled at me. "How dare you?"

"I didn't do it! Where would I possibly get Wolf's bane from?" I cried out.

Alpha Marcus turned to the doctor. "Take her to the room. Please ensure you do everything possible to save her."

"Yes, my Alpha."

Natalie, who was unconscious, was taken straight into the room while I was faced with the furious Alpha. The way he stared at me was enough to make me faint. I held my breath, expecting a very horrible punishment, instead he turned to the servants and said. "Before I get into my room and come back to this place, I would rather not see you anywhere in or within this castle."

My heart skipped a beat. Yes, I wanted to leave and go rogue, but I wasn't prepared yet. "Marcus, I didn't..."

"One more word from you, and you will regret the day you got accepted into the Night Wind Pack." He shunned me before walking away.

It was already dark. How do I leave on such a cold night? Wiping my tears off, I walked to the slave's quarters and packed the little things I had. Of course, I wouldn't want to incur his wrath by staying longer in the castle.

"Allison, I want to go with you." Karina rushed to me as I approached the gate. Tears didn't stop rolling down her face.

I hugged her tight with a faint smile. "No, Karina. You can't come with me. I don't know how life outside the Pack will be for me, this is your home. I'll take good care of myself, and I hope you'll do the same."

"Allison, please let me come with you. I can't bear to be separated from you. Even if everyone disbelieves you, I believe you. I know you didn't stab Natalie." Karina assured me.

Sniffing hard, I patted her hair and waved her goodbye as I dragged my luggage out of the gate. The street was dark, but I kept walking down and down. I don't know what awaits me as I go rogue, but I don't care. I've seen worse, and I'm prepared to see worse.

"We will get through this together, Lily." I told my wolf.

At the Night Wind Pack, inside Natalie's bedroom where she was lying, she gradually opened her eyes.

She spotted Alpha Marcus sleeping at the edge of her bed. A smile escaped her lips, she had finally gotten the Alpha's attention like she wanted.

Immediately, she feigned pains and groaned. Marcus quickly opened his eyes and held her by the wrist. "Natalie, are you okay? How do you feel?"

"I... I'm still feeling pain, my Alpha. You know that she stabbed me with Wolf's bane. I can't heal that fast unless you help me." She groaned.

Marcus raised his brows. "Help you? What do you mean? I've already had the doctor check on you and prescribed some drugs."

Seductively, she grabbed his arm. "You know what I mean. If we can get intimate, I'll heal faster since you're an Alpha."

"What are you...?" Alpha Marcus tried to speak, but she shut him up with a passionate kiss.

Before he knew what was happening, she already went down to his trouser zipper and stroke on his hard c·ck.

She got down on her knees, and unzipped his trousers. Gradually, she took in his d·ck into her mouth and sucked on it like her life depended on it. Likewise, Alpha Marcus grabbed her blonde, shoving her mouth around his d·ck in pleasure.

Meanwhile, I walked down the lonely road alone. There was no single person on the street, and that got me terrified, but I didn't stop going.

Suddenly, I heard voices. Two muscular, - built men grabbed me. I screamed helplessly, trying as hard as I could to get myself freed from their grip.

Before I could say jack, they placed a handkerchief over my nose and I passed out.

I heard a mild chuckle, and then the familiar voice came again. "I'll pay you triple the price that she's been bought."

"What?" The abductors screamed.

Furthermore, I managed to get up from the old bed to the door, straining my ears to hear what else they were saying, but I didn't. Are they murmuring? Who is it that wants to buy me? Oh, God! Why do I keep getting into trouble?

My left ear was still placed on the door when the door was thrown open, causing me to fall out of the door. I groaned in pain, and the man glared at me. "You, little rascal! Why were you eavesdropping?"

I wanted to speak, but words couldn't come out of my mouth. "I... I..."

"Shut up! Your stay here is over, you have been bought." He smirked as he brought out a stick of cigarette from the pack he was holding. Placing the cigarette in between his lips, he lit the cigarette and smoked deeply. Smoke emanated from his nostrils and mouth.

He grabbed my arm and dragged me out of the dungeon. It was still dark... probably very early in the morning. I can't tell because I've been unconscious for a while.

A Range Rover was driven in, and it halted in front of me. The door was automatically opened, and he pushed me into the car, and the car zoomed off immediately.

My hands were still tied to my back. I stared around the luxurious car that I was in, and then to the driver. "Sir? Where are you taking me?"

He turned to me, and sneered before turning his gaze away. Of course, I was expecting him to reply, but he ignored me.

Tears pricked my eyes. That was when it dawned on me that I've lost my freedom again. I thought that after leaving the Night Wind Pack, I could be free to live my life as a rogue, now this.

Then, I thought. "Am I going to be killed? Would I be turned into a breeder?"

Thoughts kept running through my mind until I was tapped. Smacked out of my thoughts, I flinched in fear. That was when I realized that we already got to a mansion.

"Get down!" He ordered.

I struggled out because my hands were still tied to my back, my long hair was looking so messy in the sack clothes I was putting on.

Likewise, I didn't need anyone to tell me that I had to follow him into the magnificent mansion. I kept staring around in astonishment. What kind of place is this?

Walking into the big sitting room, my jaw dropped in awe. Some people were in the sitting room, so I had to stand in the middle of the room. They were all feasting their eyes on me.

Footsteps approached from the large staircase. I raised my head to see who it was when one of them yelled at me. "Kneel for your Alpha."

I quickly went on my knees, and bowed my head in fear. Of course, I was obviously shaking in fear. Should I say I prefer being the maid of the Night Wind Pack than being brought here? Probably because of the saying that the devil you know is better than the angel you don't know.

"Take her to the prepared room." The Alpha said with a cold, deep voice. That was the familiar voice I heard.

Slowly, I raised my face and glanced at him. A gasp escaped my lips. Is he the powerful Alpha who came to Marcus's party? I saw the lady beside him, and my heart skipped a beat. It was the lady who came with him... his mate, perhaps.

I followed the elderly lady who he assigned to take me to the room, with my head bowed. Fear was an understatement of what I was feeling.

The door was unlocked, and I walked in with the lady. My eyes narrowed in surprise. The room was surprisingly furnished and big. It doesn't look like a room where a slave would be.

"What is your name?" The lady asked.

Gulping hard, I replied. "I'm Allison, ma'am."

She smiled faintly. For some reason, I felt safe with her. Perhaps because no one has treated me so calmly like she is. "Allison, I left a new dress on the bed. You have ten minutes to freshen up and change into it, then go straight to the Alpha's chambers."

Upon hearing that, cold shivers ran down my spine. "Ma'am, am I going to become a breeder? Why am I here?"

"By the way, I am Alpha Atlas's only relation. You can call me, Aunt Maggie. I don't also know the reason Atlas bought you, but I hope you will be okay." She replied.

Her words made me so confused. Should I be happy that I'm Alpha Atlas's possession? Breathing heavily, I said. "How do I find Alpha Atlas's chamber, Aunt Maggie?"

"Once you're done, press the bell, someone will assist you." She snapped before walking out of the room.

In a few minutes, I was already dressed in the clothes. It fitted perfectly, but it was really short. Does he want to turn me into a stripper? My mind was made up to face whatever it is that would happen.

As soon as I pressed the bell, The Alpha's Beta came in and walked me down the hallway. My hand was shaking as I clicked the door handle. I walked into the room, it was dark and that scared me the most.

Staring around in fear, I was visibly shaking. The light in the room was turned on, and I saw Alpha Atlas standing right in front of me. I screamed in fear, and rushed to the door. I clicked on the handle, but the door was already locked.

My heart kept racing faster as Alpha Atlas, whose face was expressionless and brutal, walked closer to me.
