Captive Of The Alpha
Chapter 22

Nebraska felt the beta approaching her, and reflexively stepped back, barely, as far as her aching legs would allow. The silhouette was not as large as the alpha’s but larger than either of her children.

Siran watched the woman stand at attention as she lay on the ground. He had to admit that there were few wolves that stood up to him. His position as beta had not come overnight and was not solidified by taste. She knew her reaction in others and was getting scolded for it, by Hades.

He approached the omega and leaned down and put one arm around her and the other under her legs, carrying her. Nebraska stood still and stiff. Up close now, the dominant wolf scent was pungent and she did nothing to hide it, demanding her body submit to it.

To her shock, the beta said nothing, didn’t even look at her. With them in his arms he turned and walked towards a door which he kicked open.

The uniform white colour of the place plus the steam that shook her skin told her she was in what would be the bathroom. Her alarms went off. What did the man want to do to her, bathe her, see her naked body? More humiliation, she would not allow it.

She moved in agitation, taking him by surprise, almost releasing her.

-Don’t tempt my patience, be thankful I’m touching you, you almost killed my alpha.

She had done that? When?

-What are you supposed to do to her? Don’t you see you’re scaring her- a petite woman entered the bathroom with several lumps in her hands and a tray of food- I always tell you love, you need to change your character- -Sara- he growled at her- -Sara- he growled at her.

-Sara,” he growled, warning her.

The she-wolf threw her arms up in the air, raised herself up on tiptoe and blew a surna on the back of her head.

-Don’t growl at me, wolf, or I’ll put you out of s*x for a year.

Siran gritted his teeth, but didn’t respond. Nebraska felt the broad chest rise and fall, and said softly.

-This is why I hate women.

The omega blinked. He would have liked to see her face.

The beta walked over to the large tub full of hot water and sat her on the edge.

-Now get out, my love, I have things to do,” his wife pulled him by the collar of his shirt and gave him a resounding k**s on the cheek.

-About the year…” Siran whispered in her ear.

-It all depends on how you behave. Surprise me and I’ll think about it,” the she-wolf smiled mischievously, her husband was complacent only with her and better to take advantage.

The beta went off rambling to himself, as if his life depended on it, and left them alone.

-I’ve got it in the palm of my hands. It’s a stuffed animal, isn’t it?

Nebraska frowned in disagreement.

Sara let out a laugh.

-Don’t let him intimidate you with his size, he’s got a bad temper, but he’s good people and- she put a hand to the side of her mouth as if it were a secret-he’s very good in bed.

What an open-minded woman she was to talk to him with such confidence. Nebraska didn’t know what to think.

-Well, now get your clothes off and let’s get you cleaned up, that body of yours needs a decent bath, even the alpha himself will be drooling,” she said.

-Why do you treat a stranger so well?” the omega was always cautious as she had learned since she was a little girl.

-An action doesn’t always have to have a purpose behind it. Hades asked me to take care of you and I love taking care of people,” she left a tray full of food next to the bathtub, “And fattening them up, so let’s eat too.

Nebraska understood why the beta couldn’t talk back to the she-wolf. Despite being smaller, even than her, her temper was a bombshell.

She struggled out of the clean dress that had replaced her torn one. Sara reached over and touched the bandages on her wrists. Nebraska recoiled, almost falling into the tub.

-I have to take the bandages off, don’t worry, you’re safe here,” she said.

She nodded, but began to remove them herself. She didn’t trust anyone else to take on that responsibility.

She gently crossed her feet over the tub and slipped them into the warm water, making every hair on her body stand on end. He had forgotten how good a hot bath felt.

The water came up to her neck and she threw her head back, letting out a low m**n.

-You know, it’s a good thing your children have asked our alpha for help, I can assure you that you’re in good hands.

-No alpha is good,” she replied immediately.

The she-wolf paused, but resumed her activity, smiling as if nothing affected her.

-When I had just come of age, my parents abandoned me in the middle of the forest just because they didn’t want a daughter who wouldn’t marry the one they wanted. I wandered aimlessly for three years until Hades found me.” Sara grabbed the comb and went to her hair, “At first I didn’t trust anyone like you, but he gave me food, a roof over my head and what I thank him most for, happiness.” The she-wolf futilely combed one of the locks that refused to give up its tangle, “When I saw his beta the first time, I said he would be the father of my cubs and Hades allowed me to marry him. At first Siran didn’t want to relate to a girl like I was at the time, but I grew up, I won him over and today I am the happiest she-wolf in the world.

A beautiful love story, Nebraska thought, too bad it wasn’t all like in the fairy tales. She was married, and the other alpha who claimed her only wanted her to bring his offspring into this world.

Their conditions were not alike. They were nothing alike.
