The Roaming Alpha 2
A proposition

Ch 5

Killian pov

This afternoon has gone by fast and we are all ready for the ceremony to happen. I just lie here in our bed surrounding myself with her scent. The torture I’m going through knowing the hell she is living in is killing me. My wolf won’t talk to me because he is beyond pissed. Rikar is pissed at me, and I understand completely. Even I couldn’t have predicted this happening to his mom and my mate. I should have saved her.

I feel tears start falling again when her voice echoes through my head.

“Killian! Can you hear me? I don’t have much time! We are at his territory, and most of his pack has left. Killian I’m so sorry! I’m trying to stay strong but I.....”

I feel a prick against my neck and the voice is gone! My wolf perked up hearing her voice and started whining. I tried to get through to her but the link was broken again. I get off the bed and start pacing back and forth while I keep trying to get through to her to let her know it’s ok we will be on our way shortly. I keep trying when a knock sounds at the door.

I walk over and when I open it, I stare down at Mila who is smiling back.

“They are here and ready to start!”

I nod my head and follow her into the conference room. I know we were supposed to have a big affair but that’s been thrown out the window for the moment. I follow Mila in through the doors and I see everyone sitting down. Everyone stands up and when I go to shake hands I stumble landing against the table. I quickly sit in a chair leaning back with my hand on my heart and growls coming out that I cannot control. I look at the Gods as my chest heaves up and down and I seeth through my teeth.

“Is he doing it again?” Mila asked.

I just nod my head when tears start to fall while I lean back to look up at the ceiling. Everyone gets quiet because they know what is happening. I pray to the goddess that I at least get my mate back in one piece. I can deal with the aftermath. I get my bearings together when Rikar speaks up.

“Tell Matecor we have a proposition for him! Throne for my mother!

“Rikar what the hell are you doing? Your mother won’t go for it!”

“Dad, it’s just a plan. He will show up but won’t know the throne isn’t yours to give. He still thinks I’ll be uncrowned since the ceremony isn’t for a couple days. When he shows up he’ll be in for a surprise!”

I just look at him and smile. The first smile I’ve had over the last few days. Yes let’s give that asshole a call!

The days have just seemed to become one long one. I gather as much energy as I can to block everything from Killian but sometimes I just don’t have the strength. I’m trying to stay strong but I don’t know how much longer I can take this! Most of the pack have left not wanting any part of it, and I don’t blame them. All that’s left here are some of the warriors and the devil himself. The beatings and raping have broken me down so far I’m just about done. He keeps injecting me with wolfsbane to make my wolf useless, and I can feel her hurting also.

My eyes are swollen shut, and I know I have a busted lip and multiple cuts that keep reopening anytime Matecor comes to me. I can’t tell anymore if it’s daytime or nighttime as the curtains are always shut. I sleep when I can because I never know when he’s coming back next. I have been handcuffed for days and my wrist are no doubt red and raw. I tried rubbing them to ease the pain, but it just burned and I could smell the blood so I left it alone.

My senses are on high alert when I hear the bedroom door open and shut quietly. I start shaking because I can sense the person getting closer. I begin whispering begging for him not to rape me again.

“Ssshhh it’s ok, I’m a guard! The name is Ashton! We have to be quick though! Matecor fell asleep with the key on the table. I’m going to try to get you out of here!”

I just start sobbing when I hear the handcuff unlock and can feel myself being lifted up. Right when he turns to the door I hear a loud growl erupt from downstairs.

“Shit! I gotta shift then climb on me! We have to jump out the window!

I hear him shift and even though I know we are up on the second floor it’s nothing for our wolves to jump. I quickly feel for his fur and climb onto his back holding on for dear life. Right as we make the jump the door flies open with Matecor and the guards running in. The moment we hit the ground he is off running as fast as he can go. Within minutes I hear heavy paws running towards us when snarling brings us to a complete stop. I know we’ve been caught even though I can’t see anything.

I can smell his scent and immediately start trembling. I can’t tell where he is, but in a split second I’m ripped off the back of Ashton with my back pressed against his chest. I hear growling erupt and can hear wolves fighting and soon the scent of blood fills the air.

“You should have stayed where you were, my queen!”

I feel him reach in front of me for something and soon have a warm wet feeling being wiped down my face. Oh my goddess it’s blood! The smell is so overpowering it makes my stomach turn.

“Now his blood is on your hands! As much as I dislike you being covered in blood, it does wake up my wolf! Shall we head back to the house my queen? You have a duty to perform!”

When we enter back into the pack house I hear someone come running towards us.

“Matecor we have a message from King Killian! They will hand over the throne in exchange for the Queen! You must bring her tomorrow so the transition will be complete.”

“Well now... is that not something or what? They will give up the throne in exchange for the Queen! It’s about time they come to their senses! Until then I guess she will be my Queen for just one more night!”

I feel myself being picked up and thrown over his shoulder when he starts going up the stairs to the bedroom. I hear the door open and shut with him locking it behind us, and I know what is coming again. I feel the handcuff go back on as he starts undoing his clothing. I can feel his hot breath against my neck when he pushes me down onto the bed forcing my legs apart. I just close my eyes and think of being in Killian’s arms again. Having him whisper that it’s going to be alright. I feel a sharp sting to my cheek and I’m snapped back to reality quickly.

“At least act like you are paying attention to me! You know what fuck it! I don’t give a shit! All you are is a piece of trash whore!”

I pray that I don’t end up pupped! I didn’t even think it was possible since he isn’t my mate bit goddess what if it happens?
