Captured

Chapter Fifty Eight

"I'm not your mate." My voice was meek and small. "I can't be."

I couldn't be tied down to this...this beast. No, no way. I refuse to believe it. It was a mistake, it had to be.

The silence surrounding us began to feel loud and almost overbearing. Neither of us was saying anything, we were both just sat there staring at each other, completely naked and vulnerable.

When I had asked him earlier he stated that it was a 'ridiculous question' and refused to give an answer. Now that he had provided me with an answer, I wasn't sure what to do next.

What do I do with the information I so desperately wanted to know?

I had to be sure first, even though it was 99% true that I was his mate, I had to be 100% sure. What if he was just saying that so I would sleep with him.

"Am I really your mate?"

Alpha Alessandro let out a deep sigh. "I have already answered your question."

"Only a little while ago, you said it was a ridiculous question. Shortly after that you said I am. What is the truth?"

"Truth?" Alpha Alessandro barked out. "You can't handle the truth, human."

So it was no longer Nala, I was back to being the 'human.'

He started to gather his clothes, promptly me to do the same. I averted my gaze as I hastily put on my bra and panties that we had eagerly discarded earlier.

"I can handle anything." I snapped back.

I could handle anything, I wasn't the same scared little girl who had walked into her kitchen to find her sister trembling in the corner while a disgusting rapist lay dead on the floor. So much had happened since then and I was no longer afraid.

"You don't belong in our world." Alpha Alessandro stated matter of factly as he zipped up his pants.

"I know. So let me go."

He let out a humourless laugh. "After what you and your sister did, I don't think so."

"You can't just keep me here! I'm not going to spend my whole life here. Punish me for what I did and let me go."

"You'll leave when I say you can leave." Alpha Alessandro snarled as he grabbed my arm tightly.

"Why? Because I'm your mate!"

That's the reason I was still here, that's the only reason I was here. If he truly wanted to punish us for what happened to his cousin he would have got Cami back here and killed us both or killed her. The reason why he hasn't done that is because he can't, he can't kill us because I'm his mate.

"You can't do it can you?" I taunted him. "You can't kill us."

Alpha Alessandro pulled me towards him harshly, his grip no longer just tight but painful. "I can kill you without hesitation."

"Then do it." I told him as I stared up at him. "Kill me."

I wasn't suicidal, I knew what I was doing and I knew he wouldn't kill me, not because he didn't want to but because he couldn't.

He released my arm as if it was on fire and pushed me away.

"Get out."

A small smile graced my face as the realisation of the situation hit me. There was no longer a huge power imbalance favouring him.

I was the one who had all the power now.
