Chapter 3

Amaryllis

It has been three days since the basement door opened. Three days since my last meal. Three Days since my last beating. Even though I am starving, I couldn’t be happier. My skin tingles as the cold air from the basement whistles in the quiet room. My bed, if you could call it that, is still wet with blood from my last beating. This time, my beating was worse than normal. The Alpha came down for the first time in months. I almost throw up when I recall what he did to me.

Just as I was about to go back to sleep, the door knocks.

“Move to the corner bitch or I will use the silver blade and that pretty face of yours.”

I did as the guard told me, forgetting for the moment he called me pretty.

He walked in slowly and shut the door. I can’t see anything due to the room being dark again. But I know he can with his wolf abilities.

“Alpha Dean says it’s time”

“Time for what?” My voice is shaken and quiet. What could he possibly do to me that is worse than this?

“You don’t get to ask questions Slut!”

Before I could say anything more, he grabbed me and led me to the door. I was terrified to go with him, but I couldn’t help but feel happy to leave this room for the first time.

He opened the door and the light burned my eyes. He lead me down the hall and up some stairs. My legs barely wanted to move, they gave out underneath me on only the second step. I could feel his anger when I hit the ground. He turned back around to see my body shaking. I only wore a ripped tank top and underwear, both in a gross white color. I tried to cover myself from his eyes. I saw his first ball up like he was ready to punch me. Instead he quickly kicked my head into the wall surrounding the staircase. I heard a faint voice that was new to me but also felt like I have known my entire life. The pain in my head whispered to me to fall asleep. I heard the guard run away from the stairs and away from me. My eyes for heavy as I heard several footsteps run down the stairs. The pain from the vibrations of footsteps and yells made my brain throb against my skull. A few seconds later I closed my eyes as I felt someone stand above me. My energy is completely gone and I fall asleep in front of the tall figure.
