Iris POV.
"Somewhere, you will make money and get the pack project to reality, don't you forget your adopted father, the late alpha always wanted this and he will be happy if you could be useful for once." I look at Damien, he is different, different from the man, I fall in love with, the man I was happy that the moon goddess pick for me, but fate is a bitch, and cruel. "You should pack up, first thing tomorrow you will leave."
That were his last words before he turned around leaving me in my predicament, I could see Hilary and her father grinning and this made me feel uneasy, I could feel my hand trembling, the last time I felt this way, was when something bad happened, that was the night I lost my parents, as I make my way towards the other maids, Susan look at me.
"The alpha just told me, he is going to send me somewhere, I could make a lot of money for the pack, is he going to sell me as a slave?" I asked since I couldn't ask Damien or Hilary.
Susan sighed, as she parted her lips like she doesn't want to be the bearer of bad news.
"Come on tell me." I urge her.
"It means they will bring you to a place where your beauty could be extremely useful."
"I know that is what he said, what do you think that will be, what does it mean?"
"Iris, am I afraid it's not something good." I could see the hesitation on her face and this made me more nervous. "You should pray hard that you aren't sold to Alpha David, he is the most ruthless alpha who purchased slaves, we heard he run an illegal brothel."
"I won't want to be sold, I don't want to go there." My voice trembled like my hands.
"You should run away." One of the maids that haven't said anything to me since my stay in the castle said.
Running away is never an option, even if I decided to, at this point, I have no idea where to go, and I have no friends, then the thought of Helga came to my mind but she had left already, I heard my father's beta and his Delta, discussing the departure of Helga and her father, bloody shit, I curse inwardly as I make my way to my stable, I don't want to remain there, I don't want those maid taking pity on me, I hate it, I don't want it.
I packed the remainder of my stuff, I guess Hilary will not let the sunset before she pushed me into the hands of those monsters the thought I will sell myself to men, which the maid was speculating, made me nervous, just maybe, they only want to scare me.
I lie on the floor and within a few seconds, my tired self-force my eyes to close.
"Where am I?" I asked no one in particular, as the dark wood visited my face.
"Iris, you are free to go now, I have packed your stuff." I turned and I look at "Susan, what is going on?" I asked everything seems confusing right now.
"You should escape, now run, run before Damien get here."
"I don't..." My words aren't finished before I heard the sound of wolves paws they are coming towards us.
"Now run." She said but it still doesn't make sense, I stood rooted on the floor, and the next thing I saw was one of the wolves launch itself towards Susan, and his paws on her shoulder pulled her to the floor as if that is not enough, the other with his front paws outstretched to me, to get my shoulder, I just resigned to my fate, with my eyes closed tight, waiting for the hit but then a wolf howling in anguish and crack bones were all I heard, slowly I open my eyes before I could even grabbed the picture of what just happened, the one that was there to save me pulled by hand, a man in a hood, his face is cover, just like the man in the castle.
"Come with me."
"Why should I come with you?" I quizzed trying to get off his grip.
"You be safe with me."
"But I don't know you, I have no idea who you are."
'I just save you and you still don't know me."
"I don't even know who you are. I don't know if you are a monster."
"Of course, I am a beast, a hungry beast tasting for blood." He said throwing the hood off his head and his face becomes visible, his face is terrible, and evil with many scars, his eyes are red, like roses, and his fangs were elongated and stained with blood, it was scary, and I screamed so loud.
"No oh!"
"Are you dreaming?" I sat fast, hearing that voice every morning always wanting to make me throw up but it's seem Damien is so boring that she wish to see my face every morning, while I hate to see her ugly face.
"You stand up and stop sleeping like you are a princess, it's morning, and alpha David is here to take you."
I sighed rubbing my eyes with my palm, I didn't realize that it was morning already, and to think that scary face is still right in my mind's eye and then the last part of Hilary's words hit me, alpha David. "Wait did you just say alpha David?"
"Did I have water in my mouth when I was saying it, get off there, since you are good at seducing every man and giving them a boner maybe you could be useful."
"What did you say?" I asked she didn't give me attention, and now her last words are suspicious, I try to shake the thought that I might be in big trouble. And the thought of running rushed into my head with the mention of that name, isn't it the name one of the maids pick last night, oh no, why didn't I run away, I would had listen to the words of them but right now is too late.
One of the guards grabbed my hands, and they pulled me roughly, along the stable, till we get to the back of the building, a black car was packed outside with the windscreen lower, I could see the face of the man, it was scary but not as scary as the one who grabbed my hand in my dream.
My hands trembled again in fear, he glared at me, and I found myself grabbing the hands of Damien that is standing in front of me.
"Damien..."
"Alpha Damien." He said pulling his hand off mine.
"I am sorry... Alpha Damien." I ended the other part with a grunt. "I beg you don't let him take me away, I don't want to go with him, just let me remain here, I am not going to cause any more trouble."
"Iris, it's better you bring money to the pack than stay here wasting away your gorgeous body..."
"Damien, are you going to sell me off because of money, Damien, I am your mate, we used to be friends, even if you don't love me as your mate, you still didn't detest me as a sister to you. I look into his eyes, and I saw Damien, I used to know, the man that cared for me, the man that protected me, what happened to my Damien but then his eyes is masked again, and he turned from me."
"Take her away"
The two guards grabbed me, I try to fight my way off their grip, but then strong paws landed on my cheeks, I found myself falling slowly to the flow and my vision fading away.
"Iris!!!!"
