Rejected, but not Broken
Chapter 93

Gabi’s POV

I know it is morning now, as I had breakfast on my tray after I slept. The food was OK, not the best. But then, I am sure it is hard to get people to work for you as a cook when you kidnap people and sell them. I asked for an extra bottle of water when they got my tray from breakfast and I did get an extra bottle of water when they brought down an apple for me for a snack.

They don’t come down here very often, and I am pretty sure that it is because they don’t want their victims to be offering money to let us escape, the men helping us, as they can lose their people fairly quickly that way. I know I would offer them a lot to get free right now.

I am not going to fall for it though. I know if they are working here, that they are not good people either. My only hope from the people here will be the doctor that they say will be coming here to check on me sometime soon.

I will try to get him to help me. He made an oath to do no harm to become a doctor, so he will be my best bet to be able to get out of here.

I have been trying to stay calm, and I have been taking the time to do my Taekwondo forms, as trying to remember the order of the steps calms me and puts my focus somewhere else. I need to stay on top of my forms and remember how to do my moves.

I haven’t put anyone in a chokehold since Alpha Lowell, and I feel rusty at it. I work through what I need to do to get someone choked out by visualizing it, and the steps I need to take to get there. I do hope that someone chokes Alex out, as it would be a pleasure to see it.

I know that Tanner knows I am missing, and I know that he and my dad will do everything in their power to get me back.

I sat back stunned as I just called Heath, dad. I am surprised I did it so soon, but he is. He always takes care of me, and I know I will be seeing him coming down this hallway to get me, and soon hopefully. I feel like I could cry thinking about them. I miss them both, and Von, she is truly my mom.

She wanted nothing but the best for me and helped me get the therapy I needed after all that Jack did to me. They didn’t have to give birth to me to love me with their whole hearts.

I know Aria and Dawson are missing me, as well as Alicia and Gavin, my bonus sister and brother.

I already know that Tanner and dad would have had Taylor pulled in to be questioned yesterday. I also know that dad will do this like an operation, and he will not rush in, so I need to take it easy and not get upset about it. If it takes three days, it takes three days.

I already know that they WILL come for me and that Taylor would tell the truth. Not because she wants to, but because she got a truth spell instead, instead of something that will keep her from being Alpha commanded. I wish I could have been there to see her face when she figured it out.

I hope they take care of her because she needs to be sentenced to death, as does the man who took me. I know he has done this before, and several times, as he was too smooth taking me. I never suspected a thing.

I got through three forms in Taekwondo, and I sat down on the bed to rest for a little while. Things were a little tougher with me being pregnant with the twins. My back starts to hurt some now with too much walking, from the weight of the babies.

I am calm though, as I lay down on the bed and looked at the ceiling. I hope that they have started to figure out who has me, and then where we are.

I heard someone coming down the hallway and I heard a tray being placed down on the cut-out in the cell bars for it. I looked over and I saw that arrogant as*sh0le who took me, and I sat up and looked at him.

“You know who I am. What is your name?” I asked him.

“Are you interested doll face?” he asked me.

“No, I am not. But you know who I am, and I would like to know who you are”, I told him. He grabbed at his heart with his right hand and acted like I broke his heart.

He gave me a charming smile and said, “You wound me with your words. Alright doll face, I don’t mind telling you, as you won’t be leaving anyway. My name is Alexander, but I am called Alex. I am glad you are staying calm. That shows that you can be reasonable. I am glad.

I don’t have any children myself, and I might try you for a spin to get my children too. They would be gorgeous, whether they looked like you or me. I cannot thank Taylor enough. She is a horrible person, but the second I saw your picture, knew I wanted you.

Even though you look like her, thankfully you are nothing like Taylor at all. I would like a son, but we can keep trying if you don’t produce one in the first round.” Alex said to me and then grinned.

T have to be in a nightmare. I started doing my breathing exercises right then. I have to calm down. I am only safe with the babies inside me. I have to buy time for Tanner and dad to get to me. I tear up thinking about how happy I will be to see them and then start praying again to the Moon Goddess, Selene, for help.

“Don’t you want to talk yet? That is OK, I have plenty to say to you”. He stepped back out of my sight and when he came back, he had a folding chair in his right hand. He sat it down and unfolded it, and then sat down to where he could see my face while he spoke to me.

So, after Taylor told me about you, I looked you up. Still 18 years old, you will be 19 in March. Got rejected by your first mate, who, may I say, must be a complete i***t.

You are gorgeous. I know now that you made the elite training team and were the first woman to do so. So, that explains the lucky hit you got in on me. Your second chance mate is a great fighter too, as I see he got onto your team to go with you to Red River.

I have people all over the place as you need them in the business that I am in. I heard your first mate kept making the moves on you. I bet that pissed your 2nd mate off pretty badly, didn’t it?

Now what I didn’t know or wasn’t informed about at the time was the fact that you are considered to be Alpha Heath Poe’s child, even though he and his Luna never had children. That was some “need-to-know” information and it could cause me some big problems.

I think I am good right now though. I went over to the Crimson Shadow yesterday after I had picked you up, to see who came and went, after I got you set up in your room. I was glad I did because I saw quite a few people showing up to help get you. Looks like Taylor went a little too far with this and didn’t know who she was dealing with either.

Thankfully, I never let people know where I am, and your sister can’t help them replace me. But I will say that, from the looks of it, you won’t have to worry about Taylor too much longer. On the plus side, I just saved myself $50,000, as Taylor won’t be alive to need to be paid anymore.

So, I would say that I am having a great day. Because I just saved myself the fee for your first child after your twins are born. Just so you know that I am not a complete monster, I will allow you two weeks to heal after giving birth, and then we will make our child together”. Alex got up from his chair and came up to the bars to smile at me.

“Don’t forget to eat your lunch. You need to keep your strength up. I will come back down and visit you for dinner. Do you have any requests? Is there anything special that you would like to eat? Or drink? We will be getting to see each other, as you will be here with me for a while.

I am even considering making you mine, just mine, so you wouldn’t have to be with anyone but me. That is actually a great deal that I am offering you.

I have never made it before, but there is something about you that I really like. I want to get to know you, and you be comfortable with me, as we will be spending quite a lot of time here together.

Please think about it, because if you don’t agree to it, I will still mate you and we will still have children, but then I will offer your services to other clients.

They will all be tested and clean, but make no mistake about it, you will either be with me exclusively or you will bear me children until I have a son, and then you will be used to make other Alpha children for men who need an heir. I can assure you that 80% of them will be older, and not in as good a shape as I am.

No need to hurry with a decision. We have time. I will come back for dinner with whatever food I decide to pick up for you, as you obviously don’t feel like talking right now.

Maybe you will feel more like talking and being nicer to me when I come back with your dinner”, Alex said to me, and he smiled as he turned and headed up the stairs.

I have got a real problem. I had to stay calm. I started humming and rubbing my tummy with both hands to comfort myself and the tears just started pouring out of my eyes and down the sides of my face. I am really in a bad position now. I will not agree to sleep with anyone, but I also know that I can be drugged and made to allow it. I started sobbing loudly as I cannot see this ending well for me at all.

He is going to do what he wants to me, but I only want Tanner. Tanner will feel the betrayal if anyone does that, even if I am knocked out, and then he will think that I would do that to him.

I would rather die. I will have to figure out something here. If any opportunity presents itself to me to get out of here. I will take it. I will not stay to be some kind of concubine to this horrible man.

I stop crying because it won’t help me in any way. I need to focus on the problem sol can replace a solution. I know my hormones are raging with the babies, but I have got to focus, for them and for myself. I went and got my tray and took it to my bed. I felt a little sick from what he had said to me, but I was still thirsty. Only having a few bottles of water a day wasn’t enough.

I had to refill them in the sink and the water where we are isn’t good at all. It tastes terrible. I will need more water. I will ask for at least 5 bottles of water a day. I need to stay hydrated. I will be nice about asking for it, and I will play along with him, to get what I want from him right now.

I will not sleep with him, but if I need to play nice to make sure I get water, I will do it. I set my shoulders. He knew I was on the team, but I am quite sure that he probably underestimated me too.

I drank my water, but the conversation from earlier left me nauseous and unable to eat. I wasn’t trying to be stubborn, but I bet it would look like that to Alex.

As soon as I could calm down, I ate half my sandwich, and I kept the bag of chips under my pillow. That was all I could do for lunch.

I will be sure to pay more attention in my room and stay out of the camera coverage. I have been here at least 24 hours now, and I am trying to keep from freaking out right now. He did have a lot of information on me, and I don’t think he was joking about having so many informants.

I think a person who can do what he does is a horrible person and I know something bad probably had to have happened to him for him to participate in taking innocent people from their families and selling them like they were cattle.

I cannot wrap my head around it, and I most certainly won’t let my babies be taken from me. They are going to have to kill me first. I set my resolve. I won’t allow it to happen. Whatever I need to do, I will do, but I will not allow them to take my babies away from me.
