Chapter 3
MALIYA
I haven’t been able to breathe. I haven’t been able to think. I haven’t been able to do anything. It felt like my body was available and my spirit was gone.
“You don’t even have a wolf! You are useless!” Kane’s words rang in my heart, shattering my already shattered heart.
It hurts like hell. After Kane rejected me, I felt pain but it only worsened with each passing time. Nothing seemed to make sense to me no matter how hard I thought about it and then I remembered his conversation with my step sister.
“Alpha Xander is in town.”
If only I had continued to eavesdrop on their conversation then maybe I’d have heard what they were talking about. Maybe I’d have seen all of this coming and prevented it.
It hurt so much as I wanted so badly to scream and cry out loud but I couldn’t. The pain was hanging in my throat and made my throat feel sore,
It all made sense why he suddenly forgave me so quickly. He already had his mind. made
up. He didn’t want me anymore. I saw the signs yet I ignored it and it hurts.
It hurts because my life has been nothing but painful with lots of people hating me and wishing the worst on me.

my
head to look at Claudia.
“Are you alright? You look pale,” she remarked with concern laced in her tone.
I didn’t know if I should smile at her and tell her it was fine but I’d be lying then and I didn’t want to lie.
“It would be best for you to get rid of whatever feeling you have right now because it won’t do you any good but harm,” Claudia whispered.
I said nothing in return. She didn’t understand how I felt. She doesn’t know what’s happening to me so I couldn’t blame her for expecting me to let go of my hurt as if it wasn’t real.

“I…”
“Hurry up everyone! We have to leave now!” Lord Williams announced.
Claudia left my side and went back to where she was as she continued our journey.
We finally arrived the next day, close to evening. The pack was completely different from the Greenwood pack.
There seemed to be more happy people here as people were roaming around the streets and dancing in joy on our way to the castle where the Alpha resided.
It felt foreign to me to be anywhere else besides the place I grew up. Reality hit me hard when I realized I was miles away from home or rather my former home as the Lava Pack is now my new home.
“Welcome Lord Williams,” A Red–haired lady said to Lord Williams as soon as we arrived at the castle. The glass castle so it’s called, is made of all fine elements I have no idea of and built with the best building ingredients as Claudia said.
It was more grand than the Greenwood castle where the Alpha resides. There were men all over the place standing in a firm position while guarding the castle and all dressed in the same uniform.
They seem more coordinated than organized
“Did you bring anyone?” The woman asked, looking around as if she was looking for
someone.
“Oh, I did. Someone who would be of the Alpha’s interest. She is just as he likes them,” Lord Williams replied.
“Where is she then?” The woman asked.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
My heart, which I thought had already stopped beating because of my heartbreak, began to race faster than normal when the woman’s eyes landed on me after Lord Williams had pointed at me.
The woman walked towards me. She scrutinized me from head to toe, making me more nervous than I already was.
“Fair skin, average height, pretty face, hazel eyes. This will do. Just as the Alpha likes them,” the woman uttered.
“Bring her along, we have to clean her up and get her ready for tonight.” She ordered as she walked away.
Two women came towards me and held my arms.
“Where are you taking me to?” I questioned frantically.
I didn’t understand what was going on. They kept talking about the Alpha likes without. caring about who they had brought. What does the Alpha want me for? What will he use me for? All of those words rang in my head as the ladies took me along with them.
“Claudia!” I called in fear as soon as she entered the room I was in.
“Please what’s happening? Explain to me. Who is this Alpha Xander and what will he do to me? Am I going to survive or will I die?” I asked, my voice quivering from the thought of the worst happening.
Claudia gave me a pitiful look but didn’t say anything. Her eyes were telling me a lot but I didn’t know exactly what they were trying to say.
“It’s not as bad as you think. You will survive,” she smiled but as usual, they were fake. “What do you mean by that? Can someone explain to me?” I panicked.
I was brought into the room, they cleaned me up, got me dressed in this linen material and said nothing to me.
“You might want to keep your voice down!” The woman from earlier said as she entered the room, her voice oozing with authority.
“I…”
“Shush!” She cuts me off.
She leaned towards me. “You are a slave. You were bought and now you belong to the Alpha. You will do as told and not act stupid okay?”
“But…”
you will do as “Don’t be a stubborn girl. You will be taken now to the Alpha room and told. You will be quiet, you will obey him and you won’t complain, is that understood?” She remarked, emphasizing her words.
“Is that understood?” She asked again and I nodded my head in understanding as if I had been hypnotized.
“Good. Now get up and follow me,” she said and I did just as I was told.
I followed her as she walked without uttering a word. I have been sold off to a life I had no idea about and no matter what I try to do, I don’t think I’d be able to escape.
My life has gotten worse.
The door opened and the woman gestured for me to go in.
“Remember to not make a sound and when the Alpha comes in, you will do as told, alright?” She reminded me and I nodded my head.
A drop of tears slipped down my check as I entered the dimly lit room. There was a king–size bed in the middle of the room but what caught the bed but what was on the bed.

Chastity Belt, Whip, Gag, Collar. I took slow steps towards the bed to look at the rest and find out what they were.
My hands fell on the handcuffs that were hidden under the Chastity belt and I gasped in disbelief. What are these and what were they doing here?
“It’s not as bad as you think. You will survive.” The words of Claudia rang in and I shook my head whilst my hand shook.

I couldn’t stay here. I cannot stay here. I refuse to stay here because it would only lead. to my death.
The sound of the door opening made my heart skip from fear. A man walked in, he had a cloak covering his head just like Lord Williams. The door closed afterward.
I’m guessing he is the real Alpha Xander of the Lava pack.
Every step he took towards me made my heart race rapidly. I didn’t know what to do. It was as if my body had failed me and froze.
The man came to stand in front of me. Slowly he revealed his race by getting rid of his hood. I felt a jolt of electricity run down my spine from the look on his face.
The man standing in front of me is Alpha Xander of the Lava pack.
