CHAPTER 5
ERSA'S POV:-
The Beta of the Divine Tree Pack gestured to me to follow him. I bowed my head in front of the alpha and walked behind the Beta. Alpha Renard sure was loaded. I knew enough to compare the size of the mansion I was brought in and the villa that kicked me out. No! I was sold.
Beta Shane took me upstairs. He opened the door of a room. As he turned the lights on, my eyes almost popped out of their sockets. "This is your bedroom. Go inside and get comfortable. Wait for Alpha. He will tell you what you have to do." Beta Shane informed me in a low tone. I nodded my head almost quickly then I bowed my head.
Beta Shane left me alone. But he locked the door from outside as he walked away. Maybe he was afraid that I would run away. If only I could tell him, I wouldn't risk saving my life in exchange for the life that mattered the most to me.
I pulled the coat off of my body that was covering my body more than the dress my father forced me to wear. I felt like I was standing naked in front of Alpha Renard.
When Alpha Renard was eyeing me from head to toe, I felt like I was a stripper, standing naked in front of men. It was true that he was not my biological father. He never even tried to keep that truth from me. But he could have at least got me something decent.
After I freshened up, I sat down on the edge of the bed, waiting for the alpha. I couldn't believe that my room was so luxurious. Back at him, Elsa took my bedroom away from me a long time ago. I either slept on the kitchen floor or in the dungeon.
I was aware of the fact that I was sold to Alpha Renard for one reason. My father made it clear when he asked me to get ready. I had changed my clothes because I didn't want another eye to see me in that slutty revealing dress.
After a while, I heard the door being unlocked from outside. A woman entered the room along with the Gamma.
She looked at me and smiled politely. "Hi, my name is healer Deniece. And Alpha Renard has ordered me to check you up. If you don't mind, may I?" She introduced herself to me then she asked my permission to check me up.
I wanted to laugh out loud at her, for asking me that silly question. I didn't remember having a consent in anything. I didn't remember owning my life.
Then again, I was not trying to poke the beast. I just quietly nodded my head. That's all I could do. She smiled as she walked towards me. She pulled her equipment out and started examining me. She took my blood samples, and asked me to give her my urine for examination as well.
About an hour later, she was done with all the tests she wanted to run. "Alright, Ersa. We are good to go. You can wear your clothes." The healer informed me and I nodded my head. She sat down on the chair as I wore my clothes.
"Can I ask you something?" I asked her in a low tone, thinking about something I heard a long time ago.
"Sure! Ask me anything." Healer Deniece replied to me in a polite tone.
"I am well aware why I am here. I wanted to ask you if there is a way to conceive without having any physical relationship?" I asked healer Deniece in a low tone, praying in my heart for that rumour to be true.
I never went to school or the academy. So I hardly knew anything about technology and science. The healer smiled and nodded her head. "Yes, there is a way. If Alpha Renard allowed us, I can insert his semen inside you. You will not need to sleep with him to conceive." The healer informed me and I sighed in relief. My heart did a little flip inside my chest. At least, I could save myself for the love of my life.
After dinner, I was told that the alpha would come and meet me. That's why I couldn't sleep. Since there was nothing for me to do, and I also couldn't go anywhere, I decided to sit by the window and look at the dark sky. Although the moon was shining in the sky, I couldn't understand why that night felt so dark.
I was grateful that I was able to slip the letter and the keys into Jamie's home. At least, I knew he would understand the reason why I had to go away. I leaned my head with the window frame and closed my eyes. The cold wind was touching my face.
The door of the bedroom opened again and I quickly stood up on my feet again. I had my eyes narrowed. I didn't need to see with my eyes who it was. The darkness and chills that surrounded him entered my room before he had stepped in. I already knew that it was Alpha Renard.
I clenched my fists tightly as Alpha Renard walked towards me. "I am told that you are already aware of the purpose I brought you here?" The Alpha asked me in a low tone. I couldn't hear annoyance and anger emitting his voice. It sent chills to my spine.
I gulped hard in nervousness. Being in a room alone with him made my soul shudder in terror. "Yes, Alpha. I am aware of the reason I am brought here." I replied to Alpha Renard's question after a moment. It took me a moment to calm my breathing.
Alpha Renard didn't say anything. He walked towards the couches and sat down on one of the couches. I could feel his gaze on me but I didn't dare look up at him.
"That's right! The purpose of your existence is to give me a child. And I need my child in my arms as soon as possible. So don't think for a second that I will give you a chance to get closer to me." Alpha Renard informed me coldly. His words were filled with disgust. As if he was talking to a slut. Just because my father forced me to dress up like a whore, didn't mean I was actually a whore.
"The healer told me about a way that will give you a child and you wouldn't need to touch me. Please, consider that option." I whispered as I was granted an opportunity to speak up my mind. I was well aware that I could get killed for suggesting something to Alpha Renard. He was known for his twisted ways with everyone and his stubbornness.
I needed to keep that one thing I had. I saved myself for the man I loved. And he promised me that I would be part of his life in three months. It was impossible for me to give birth to Alpha Renard's baby that fast. But if I could save my virginity, I knew I had to try.
A low growl echoed in the room, making me shiver in fear. Alpha Renard stood up and walked closer to me. He stopped in front of me, inches away from me. "Look up at me." He growled angrily, forcing me to look up at him.
I knew that I hadn't said anything wrong. I knew that I had the right to keep my virginity when he only needed the baby. His statement made it clear that he was not interested in bedding me. My sole purpose was to give him a child. I knew he wouldn't care less about me.
"What made you think I will listen to you? Your pack sold you to me for the sake of an alliance. And you thought it would be okay for you to make requests?" Alpha Renard growled at me angrily as I looked in his red eyes. I felt my feet going numb as his eyes darkened in anger. I wanted to get away from him but my body just froze.
"I know you wouldn't care less about the process if you get whatever you want in the end. Tell me if I'm wrong?" I was shocked as I heard the words that broke free from my mouth.
"You dare question me, you low life breeder?" Alpha Renard growled at me angrily as he grabbed my neck and pulled me up. I wrapped my hands around his wrist and tried to break free. I was coughing hard as Alpha Renard choked me.
He suddenly let me go and I fell on the ground with a loud thud. I gasped loudly while trying to fill my burning lungs with oxygen. I looked up at Alpha Renard, and to my surprise, I saw a shocked look on his face mixed with horror. "No way! That can't be happening." Alpha Renard mumbled as he stared at me in horror.
"Mate!" His wolf howled loudly inside him as he was suddenly so excited to come out.
