Chapter 3: My Virginity

What did he just do?

So, my mate was this ruthless, I was very scared to the bones and it was as if I was the only terrified and shocked probably, the others had gotten used to it.

About five male guards soon arrived to get rid of the corpse.

"Any disobedient fella doesn't deserve to live. You ain't an exception too." Alpha Roman said to me dryly, grinning mischievously like he did nothing.

"What's your name?" Becky asked, trying to look friendly.

"Catriona."

"She's the new slave right?" She directed the question to Alpha Roman, this time she tried to sound sweet and soothing.

Roman was getting uncomfortable, the questions were making him uneasy. One could tell that he didn't love being asked so much questions. "Yes, she is." He finally answered.

Becky was behaving like a pest. This time around, she went over to Roman, trying to rub his beards and chest alluringly.

"She could be my slave too right? After all, I told you recently that I needed a maid. She could do my nails, hair..."

Becky couldn't complete her statement because Alpha Roman almost split her neck in two but she was lucky that she ducked it.

"Silence." His voice sounded like a massive explosion. I covered my ears in fear. "I spent a fortune to have her for my personal need and not yours. Stay on your lane, else, you might not leave to tell the tale." He blurted out in anger to the shock of Becky who stood there, shivering.

"She was purchased by me for a reason," He paused and stared deep into her eyes. "She is mine alone. Now, get out of my sight." Becky didn't wait for him to complete that statement and she ran out of sight.

Roman let out a breath of relief filled with rage. He was obviously angry, his neck veins were erect and they were blue. Again, his silence was intimidating because no one knew what was coming next.

The other maid who was standing there, dragged me by the hands and led me out of the hallway. Standing at the presence of Roman was an error talk more of when he was vexed.

I could still feel his stare on me until we were out of his sight.

*****

I remained seated in the bathtub, I was weak and my whole body were in pain. The incident that happened earlier didn't mean anything to Alpha Roman. Like he split someone's neck open like it was no big deal.

The maid continued scrubbing and cleaning my body gently.

I had been through a lot this past few days and I knew that I deserved this peaceful atmosphere although it was going to be temporary. I couldn't just imagine why my mate would hate me very much.

Soon, my thoughts drifted back to Becky and I decided to ask the maid who she was to the Alpha.

"How's Becky related to Alpha Roman?"

"Well, she is his mistress." She replied.

My mate has a mistress?

It sounded like a joke to me. I felt a sharp pain on my chest, it was like my heart was going to explode soonest.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt pained. How come my mate has another woman. I couldn't imagine the feeling of anger I felt deep inside. Well, he had proven not to love me so, there's absolutely nothing I can do about it.

I hated the fact that my life had been filled with series of rejection. Why did the moon goddess create my wolf less?

Did she just want me to suffer all through my life?

Poor me, I didn't deserve all these pain.

"Your name is Catriona right?" The maids' sudden question made me jolt back to reality.

I nodded in affirmation as I tried to suppress my tears which she had already noticed and I could feel that she felt sympathy for me.

"I understand how you feel Catriona, this is your new reality, the earliest you embrace it, the better for you." She paused and looked at me. "He's very ruthless, don't over disobey him to avoid being destroyed by him. He doesn't show mercy and he equally doesn't feel remorse so, understand it now."

It was bad that my mate was very ruthless and inhumane. He lacked empathy and I had noticed it myself just in the few encounter I had with him. It was going to be a hard battle for me.

"In total, how many people has he killed." I asked both inquisitively and fearfully.

She was a bit skeptical before she replied me. "The numbers are countless." She paused and continued. "He first killed his father when he was just nine."

I couldn't believe it.

If he could kill his own father, what about me that was just his rejection?

"Do you know why he killed his father?" I asked inquisitively.

"No, I don't know and I don't think anyone else knows. Alpha Roman keeps his life and activities secret so, not much people know about him. The ones that know about him, prefers to keep it secret because of their own safety." She explained. "It is also rumoured that he was cursed by his father before he died but no one knows of it's the truth."

Just then, a maid walked into us discussing and whispered something inside the ear of the maid I was with and hastily left almost immediately.

"She said that Alpha Roman would be here any moment from now, we need to hasten up." The maid said to me fearfully.

It was obvious that every staff in the castle dreaded Alpha Roman so much like he was some kind of dangerous plague. The maid continued the bath for a while before she helped me dry my body.

I dressed in a beautiful red gown that had floral designs which complimented the beauty.

I gushed over myself over the mirror, indeed, I had bruises and blisters all over my body yet, I was still beautiful. The gown was perfect, I brought out my shape at the right places.

I patiently sat on the bed as I had been instructed, wishing that he would never come in. I didn't want to be tortured again by him.

Suddenly, the door opened violently and my nightmare was standing beside me, biting his lower lips sinisterly.

My heartbeat had increased, I was terrified by his sight. How could my mate be this vicious? I had no choice than to expect the worst to happen.

He stared at me coldly, with a blood thirsty eye that was capable of destroying a life.

"Now, strip naked!!! " He growled lustfully.
