Captured

Chapter Thirty-Eight

"It's Nala, right?" Her tone of voice was the opposite of what I was expecting.

"Yeah?" My answer came out as a question as I stood there trying to understand why she wasn't attempting to attack me.

"Are you okay?"

Huh?!

Did she just ask me if I was okay? No, of course she didn't. I must have misheard her.

"Are you okay, Nala?" She repeated her question again, this time slower.

I didn't mishear her. What the hell?

"Uh yeah." I finally managed to splutter out after a couple of minutes of silence. I had to know what was going on so I took the risk and lifted my head up so I could see her.

Shock and confusion cascaded through every inch of me as I took in her expression. Her face was full of concern as if she was worried about a loved one and her eyes were swimming with pity.

No seriously, what the hell?

"Nala." She began to say, her voice soft and cautious. "Did Alessandro hurt you?"

My eyes immediately went over to Alpha Alessandro who was watching this exchange with a blank look. I had no idea what was going on and I had no idea if I should tell her the truth. He had hurt me multiples time but why did she want to know that? Why does she care?

"W-what do you mean?" I questioned as I pulled my eyes away from Alpha Alessandro.

"Why were you not wearing clothes? Did he force you?"

This time I wasn't the only one who had a reaction to her questions, Alpha Alessandro was outraged by the question she had just asked me.

"What the f*ck are you saying Teresa?" Alpha Alessandro snapped. "Have you lost your f*cking mind?"

Teresa turned on Alpha Alessandro. "What am I supposed to think? You told me that my b*stard brother r*ped a human and now the same human is here in your office with no clothes on looking petrified."

That's why she was angry when she came in she thought the Alpha was or had been s*xually abusing me. The fact that she cared, was horrified, and was trying to do something about it made me realise that she is nothing like her d*ckhead of a brother.

A big part of me didn't think Teresa would believe the 'event' I relayed to the Alpha, I thought she would doubt it, especially at first, or demand I provide evidence and proof. Why did she believe it so quickly?

Did she not contain any anger or hatred towards me for killing her brother? Or did she think my action was justified? Did she think he deserved to die for raping a human?

"Don't be ridiculous." Alpha Alessandro snarled. "I didn't force the human to do anything."

"She killed Harlan and you despise humans, I thought this was your way of punishing her."

Alpha Alessandro scoffed. "I hate humans why would I f*ck them?"

Excuse me? It was only a few minutes ago when you were humping me and asking if I wanted you to stick your d*ck inside me!

A sudden rush of discomfort began to bloom in my heart and I rubbed my chest discreetly to help ease the pain. The pain only flittered around for a few seconds before it dissipated.

"Leave human." Alpha Alessandro commanded, not even looking at me.

His words stung and the slight twinge of pain I felt just a second ago came back again. My hand immediately went back to my chest and I rubbed it to alleviate the pain. Why was I getting random chest pains? They seem to occur around the Alpha but that didn't mean anything, right? It was just a coincidence, there was no way his words and action could lead to physical pain.

"Why are you touching your chest?" Teresa suddenly questioned.

I guess I wasn't being as discreet as I thought I was. "It's nothing, it's just randomly hurting." I told her truthfully, removing my hand from my chest.

Her eyes narrowed before flickering back to Alpha Alessandro who for some reason was clenching his jaws. Her eyes widened and became bright like she had some sort of revelation.

"It makes sense now." She whispered, her eyes still going back and forth between the two of us.

What does? What was she talking about?

"Alessandro." She whispered again, this time her eyes weren't darting between us two it was fixated on the Alpha.

"Is she yours?"
