Rouge of the Lands, Alpha of her Heart

2

I sat in my cell waiting. 

Today was one of the three days I get fed. 

I sighed and positioned myself so I sat on my butt and my back lightly rested against the stone wall. I hissed at the stinging that came after moving. But I was tired of being on my knees. 

I wondered if Alpha Alan would make me fight for my food or just give it to me.

Sometimes I would have to fight one of his best warriors and if I won, then I would get my full amount. If I lost, I'd only got half of what I was suppose to get.

I was pretty strong when it came to letting my wolf out and fighting. 

After all. An Alpha's Daughter should be strong. 

The familiar pat of footsteps is what brought me out from my thoughts. I immediately knew who it was. It was Martin. Alan's third in command. 

I looked up at him. His stern face held nothing and his short cut black hair went well to his tough and intimidating posture. 

His deep voice came out strong as he spoke "The Alpha says you'll be fighting for your food tonight."

He grinned and said "And guess who you'll be fighting, sweetheart?"

I whimpered as his grin told me who I was fighting. 

I would be fighting Alan himself. 

That meant that it would be his rules and that meant having my ankle chained to a short chain that was chained to a post. And that also meant that before that fight I would be injected with wolfs bane before the fight.

Thus making me weaker. 

I couldn't help it as I let out a small whimper when he came closer to my cell. 

"I can't wait for tonight." He said. "The Alpha. He says that he'll leave you chained after the fight."

He whispered "And it's suppose to be cold tonight."

I cringed and he chuckled and left without saying another word. 

My wolf for some reason was excited. She told me that this could be our shot! To get away from here!

I seriously doubt we could make it out of here. Even if we did, they'd catch us and I didn't want to even begin to think of the type of punishments we would get. I whimpered and shuddered at the very thought of Alpha Alan's punishments.

The time soon came when it was time for me to fight for my food. And it was Leon who came to retrieve me. 

He looked at me with eyes that said "I'm so sorry."

I gave him my best reassuring look and he undid my barb wire and my chains. He wore gloves and was gentle. Though I still hissed in pain because the barb wire and chains still touched my skin.

He helped me up and took me up a bunch of stairs and out into the open. There was a small post and a silver chain. I whimpered and Leon led me to  the post where Martin was waiting. A smirk on his face as he held the needle of wolfs bane in his hand.

Leon attached the chain to my left ankle and Martin gripped my neck and held it tight. I gasped and he jabbed the needle into me and pushed the liquid into me. I whimpered and then he stepped back. 

My legs wobbled and I struggled to stay on my feet. I could feel the liquid working and then.......

I felt his presence. 

I looked behind me and I saw Alpha Alan walk up to me. 

He smiled and said "Ready to know what real pain is little wolf?"

I didn't have much control as I kinda gave my wolf permission, when she made her way up. I knew my eyes blackened and this made Alpha Alan's smile grow. 

"This is going to be too easy." He said.

Like hell, my wolf said.

Oh how wrong she was.
