Chapter 11: Chapter 11
Chapter 11 Chaos
MAIA'S POV
"Stupid she-wolf; it's time to set our bait for King Alpha." I heard a voice say upon waking up.
I adjusted my sight to the lighting in the room and that was when I realized that we were in some kind of club. I was tied to a pole that was in the middle of the room.
I looked around the room and saw Uriah sitting on the long couch while playing with a knife.
"What the hell is going on, Uriah? Why am I tied?" I asked.
"I'm glad you are already awake because now we can finally have fun." He sneered.
"What?" I asked, confused.
"I'm sure you'll catch up in a bit." he said, pointing the knife at me.
That was when it hit me.
"You sent those rogues, didn't you? All this time, you never saved me from them." I said, confirming my suspicions.
He laughed viciously while clapping his hands slowly.
"You're pretty smart, but not smart enough." He replied.
"Why are you doing this?" I asked.
"Lucius took a very special person from me - my mother. He killed her during the Great War and I plan to take my revenge. You see, you are his mate. If I can't get to him, then I will have him come to me. That is where you come in. No werewolf can ignore their mate. The more you try, the more it gets worse. So, don't even try." He explained.
"He will never come. I already told you, he hates me. So, good luck with your lame plan." I spat.
"You never know what can actually happen, Maia. Why don't you give me a performance given that you are already on that pole. I think it's about time you entertained me, babe." He said, emphasizing the last word.
I spat on him and said, "I am not your babe. Screw you and your lame sorry ass."
He just laughed at me as if he found it entertaining.
"You see, Maia, you are way over your head. You barely know anything yet you are already acting like a hero." He said before leaving the room.
I tried to untie myself, but the rope was tied too tight. I looked around the room and saw nothing that I could use to free myself.
A few minutes later, Uriah came back. He was followed by two rogues who were pushing a board of some sort. When they turned the board around and that was when I saw what was on it.
My eyes widened in fear and trepidation."No!" I yelled.
I was panicking.
It was a punishment board that was used in clubs.
I had seen one before because our Alpha used it as a punishment for rogues, traitors or the Omegas. He would handcuff them to the board and whip them to death.
Rumors had it that in clubs, they used it to give pleasure to the men.
I threw a fit when the rogues tried to touch me. I would not let them do such a thing to me.
"Stop fighting, Maia. You're just going to tire yourself, and when you are, these men will easily untie you and hang you there. Either way, you are helpless." He said.
I glared at him with so much anger.
"I will never stop fighting," I exclaimed.
I saw Uriah smirk before I felt a needle in my neck.
"Damn you, Uriah!" I yelled before I passed out.
I woke up to a feeling of numbness and a hand roaming up and down my body. I tried to move my body, but I felt like I was restrained by something so strong that I could not move my finger. That was when it all came flashing back to me.
'Damn you, Uriah!' I cursed in my head.
I opened my eyes, and the first thing I saw was Uriah's sadistic smile.
"Let go of me, Uriah!" I yelled.
"You're still feisty, huh? I thought that getting a couple of hours of sleep would give you enough time to reconsider things; looks like I was very wrong." He said.
"You will pay for this, Uriah. I swear to you. I will rip you apart. You won't get away with it!" I spat.
"Good luck with that." He said.
He raked his hand from my legs up to my belly, bringing shivers of disgust and trepidation down my body. He rubbed his nose against my arms, and he sniffed my arms up to my neck. No matter how hard I tried to fight, it was useless. I was tied to the punishment board really well.
"Why don't we play a game, huh? I will give you the chance to free yourself if you promise to be an obedient she-wolf. What do you say?" he asked.
I was fuming with anger.
"You can dream all you want, Uriah. I will never obey you!" I spat at him and he only smirked.
"You know, you are such an ungrateful bitch." He cocked his eyebrow at me.
He stepped closer to me and placed his hand on my waist. His hands slowly raked up to my face, and he held my chin. No matter how hard I tried to twist my body and my face, his hold on me was firm.
"Stop fighting because you ain't going anywhere. Just enjoy it while it lasts." he breathed.
He started kissing my neck and sucked on the area where my mates' mark should be located. I kept moving my head around, trying to get him to stop. Suddenly, his hands were on my neck and he was choking me.
"If you don't stop moving, I will twist your neck and send it to your mate," he warned.
As much as I wanted to fight, I feared for the life of my unborn child. I cried as he sucked on my neck. I was filled with so much anger and disgust.
After he had enough with my neck, he planted nasty kisses up my jaw until he reached my mouth. I kept my mouth shut as he tried to gain access to it. He squeezed my face hard, but I bit his lips when he kissed me.
It was at that exact moment that I knew I fucked up.
I almost threw up when he punched me in the stomach.
'My baby!' I screamed in my head.
He couldn't find out that I was pregnant, but I needed to get out of there or else my baby would not live.
"You try to bite me one more time and I will use you as my punching bag instead. You hear me?" He threatened me.
He kissed me on the jaw as he made his way down to my neck again. I stood there as I quietly cried, feeling nothing but complete numbness. When I felt his teeth graze my neck, I saw my whole life flash before me. I knew that once he marked me, my life would be over. Just by his scent, I could tell that he was clouded with so much lust.
I closed my eyes as tears fell on my face.
'I'm so sorry, Avi. I'm sorry, my dear child.' I cried.
'It's not your fault, Maia. You tried. That's what is important. I'm sorry I am not strong enough to protect the two of you.' Avi apologized.
'No, Avi. You did great! I wouldn't ask for any other wolf, but you.' I replied.
I felt Uriah's teeth become elongated and he was about to mark me when he suddenly flew across the room.
Before my brain was able to process what happened, I was already being unshackled from the punishment board. I didn't have to look up to see who was carrying me because there were sparks all over my aching body.
Lucius!
"I'll be right back," he whispered as he put me down at the corner of the room.
I watched him storm off to Uriah and pick him up by the neck.
"How dare you touch my mate?" Lucius growled.
Uriah simply laughed and said, "Didn't I tell you, Maia? He will come and he definitely did."
Lucius threw Uriah across the room. The sound of crashing chairs and broken tables echoed in the room.
"Hello to you too; brother," Uriah sneered.
What? Brother? Lucius and Uriah were brothers?
"How dare you have the guts to call me your brother after laying a hand on my mate? King Alpha's mate, you bastard!" Lucius growled.
I sat there in the corner as they fought each other. Suddenly, I felt an acute pain in my stomach.
"Aarrgghh!" I cried out.
"Maia, where does it hurt?" I heard Lucius ask.
"My stomach hurts." I mumbled.
I felt him lift my shirt up, and he growled again.
"Where are you bleeding, Maia?" He asked.
That was when it hit me.
'I'm bleeding? My baby!'
When I looked down at my legs, I was bleeding.
I hugged myself as I cried.
"Did he touch you?" Lucius asked, his breathing was heavy.
I shook my head no.
I heard him let out a sigh of relief.
"He killed my baby." I cried, looking at his face.
His eyes went darker than they already were and he strode back to where Uriah was.
The last thing I heard before I succumbed to the darkness was the sound of crashing and Lucius growling.
