Alpha King’s Mate -
Chapter 49
Ryker POV
Waking up I felt completely rested, Reika was still sleeping soundly beside me, and I rolled, her head falling on my arm. I brush her hair back, running my fingers through her hair and she moves, her face seeking my touch. I k!ss her l!ps softly, careful not to wake her before hopping out of bed.
I tuck my pillow next to her so she can still smell my scent before walking out of the room and heading downstairs. I replace Tyson and Ace sitting in the kitchen eating cereal for dinner.
“Where is Lily?” I ask them.
“Left a few hours ago,” They shrug, and I look outside to see only darkness.
“Where is Reika,” They ask with goofy smiles on their faces.
“In my room, if you must know.”
“Good, she didn’t get much sleep last night, and I am pretty sure she went and slept in your walk-in.”
“What on the floor again?” I ask and they nod.
“Probably your scent, did you replace Amanda’s daughter,” Ace asks. They ask the one question I was hoping to avoid.
“Yes, but I trust you boys not to say anything to her yet.”
“She is d**d isn’t she,” Tyson asks and I nod. My stomach is turning at the knowledge.
“F**k!,” Ace mutters.
“That’s not all,” I tell them and they both look up.
“You know Amanda is Reika right,” They look at each other.
“You said something about it the other day before you left, so they are the same person then,” Tyson asks.
“Yes and Lucy, is Reika’s daughter,” I tell them and I watch both of them pale slightly.
“Ryker, Reika..”-
“I know, just let me figure out how to tell her first okay? I will be in my office if you need me but knock, don’t just walk in,” I tell them not wanting them to see the videos.
I checked on Reika first making sure she was still asleep before walking back to my office. Unlocking the filing cabinet, I grab the box and place the next DVD in the DVD player. I stare at the box, seeing one that says Lucy. I pick it up and put it back in the box before turning the DVD on. I turn the volume up.
My office was soundproof so I didn’t need to worry about anyone hearing. The new DVD was mostly her talking to the glass, talking to her mate, or playing with Lucy.
Their experiments got worse, worse than ever and they had the perfect bait to get her to do what they wanted, Lucy. They would take her, refusing to give her back until she complied. Though now their experiments would be more b****l. Removing organs, injecting her with different things, and hooking her up to all sorts of torture devices to see how much she could bear. She endured it all. Everything they did to her on the promise of giving her daughter back.
She did everything they asked, her screams were deafening, b***d-chilling, and made me feel sick. Hearing a knock on the door. I switch the tv off before hopping up and unlocking the door. Sitting back down, Tyson walks in leaning on my desk.
“Aunt Lily is taking the kids to timezone tonight, can Ace and I go with her and the kids, she is downstairs?” He asks.
“You didn’t have to ask,” I told him.
“Kind of do, you’re my ATM,” he says, and I shake my head.
“My wallet is in the kitchen but I don’t have cash on me”
“I will take your card then,” he says walking out.
“Hey, don’t you want the pin”
“Already know it, it’s the same as mums,” he says with a chuckle. I chuck my stapler at him and he shuts the door before it hits him, before opening it again.
“Missed, how do you think I brought that Xbox,” he says, popping his head in again, the cheeky little s**t.
“Have fun” I call to him as he shuts the door. I turn back to the TV, turning it back on. Once that one finishes I grab the next popping it in. She was 16 this time and Lucy was around one. Reika looked so young in these videos her face still rounded with adolescents compared to her now.
I watch Lucy’s first steps, I watch her talk to her mate through the glass, and do more experiments. I was watching Reika roll a ball to her daughter when I heard a noise behind me, making me jump. I grab the remote before pressing the button trying to turn it off. Her eyes stuck on the screen as she stepped into the room.
“Lucy, roll the ball to mummy,” Reika says and I jump up, giving up on my fumbling fingers, and rip the cord out of the wall, the screen going black.
“Lucy?” I hear her murmur eyes on the screen. I walk over to her but she sidesteps me rushing to the TV.
“Where did she go? Put it back on,” she says tapping the screen.
“Reika?” I call her, but she suddenly turns around trying to jam the cord in the outlet.
“Make it work. Make it work,” she says trying to jam the plug in with her shaking hands. She spins around looking at me. “I want to see. I want to see her! Turn it on!” she says frantically with tears rolling down her cheeks. Her confusion smashes me hard as she snatches the remote off the table pressing buttons.
I take it from her, reaching for her but she steps back “Please? Please turn it on!” she begs smacking the screen with her palm.
“Reika you shouldn’t watch,” I tell her, and she starts smacking her head, and completely losing it.
“Bring her back! Make her come back!” she screams, grabbing chunks of her hair.
“Okay, okay, just stop hurting yourself,” I tell her, stepping around her and plugging it in.
She turns to look at the screen and I turn it on. She stares intently. Her eyes are not moving from the screen.
