Chapter 10: Please, Alpha
Rory
When I blinked my eyes open, a sharp pain shot through my head, along with the onslaught of the sun pouring through an open window, causing me to whine as I squeezed my eyes tightly.
"You're finally awake." A voice echoed out from across the room, causing my eyes to fly open in the next moment, and as soon as my eyes locked with the owner of the voice, I sat up in the next moment, clutching the sheets around my body as his scent hit me right in the face, making me shudder a little because I could remember getting that scent clearly along with that voice before I had passed out.
My eyes wandered around a little and I noticed that we were currently in a large room, and I was in a large bed. It was clear that the man had taken me along with him after I had passed out, but to where?
"Uh..." I began to speak but after the man waved his hand, I swallowed the words at once. As I stared at him closely, taking in the tank top he currently have on which hugged his muscles and chest, I swallowed emptily and I bit on my bottom lip while silently wondering who this man was, and if I wasn't currently in another danger.
"You're not a woman." The man spoke, causing me to stiffen, and that was when I remembered the female's outfit the maid who had helped me escape from the palace had given me. My mouth opened and close with nothing coming forth. I glanced down at myself and a gasp flew past my mouth as soon as I realized that the outfit I had on was nowhere to be found.
My cheeks burned as I peeked underneath the sheets to check if I was fully naked and a relieved sigh bubbles past on realizing that I wasn't. When I glanced up at the stranger, he had a dark look on his face, causing fear to envelop me.
"Who the hell are you?" He demanded and my mouth opened and closed once again. I clutched on the sheets tightly while silently cursing myself out.
"I- I..."
"Are you a thief? What did you steal?" He continued and I flinched in horror, eyes widening frantically.
"What? I'm not! I'm not a thief, I didn't steal anything." I responded urgently while shaking my head. The stranger didn't seem like he believed me one bit.
