Chapter nine ( You are handsome )

It's been a week since I was locked up in this prison, no one checked up on me except Nana that always sneaks in at midnight to bring me food. Alpha Sheila gave her a room in the maid quarters when she learned she was my aunt. I don't know the reason why she did that but Nana told me.

This place can only be made for criminals, it's as hot as hell here. I don't know why she's making me regret ever helping her, I wish I never did, but my heart was going against my head.

"And now here we are…" Liam growled in my head

"Why didn't she believe me? She's the supreme Alpha, she would have known if something happened or not"

"Mate is bad….." Liam whimpered for the umpteenth time in my head.

Each morning, I wake up with the hope that I will finally be set free, but at the end of every day my hopes keep on getting shattered, I don't know for how long I can cope.

My body is becoming weak by the day, I only manage to eat once a day and that's if Nana was able to sneak in food for me. I really want to give up on this hell of a life, my heartbeat is reverberating thunderously while my breath has become steady

I lay down on the bare floor after several hours of waiting for old Nana. I have already given up hope knowing that maybe she was not able to come today.

Slowly I felt my temperature with my hand, I wasn't surprised when it felt so hot, I wasn't feeling myself. I was feeling tired, weak, and feverish. I have no choice, I have no one to turn to and most of all I hate how pathetic I've turned out to be.

I decided to fall asleep, maybe all the pains I'm feeling in my heart will go away, the physical pains are nothing compared to the emotional pains that I'm feeling. Laying gently with my hand supporting my head, I slept off.

"Fucking get your ass up from there" I heard a voice followed by a kick in my groin, I sprang up immediately rubbing the dizziness of my eyes, I was surprised to see it's one of the guards

"The Alpha requests your presence in the next thirty minutes" He uttered and glared at me before he left, I sighed and made to sit back but remembering his warning I stood up nonetheless. I wanted to walk when I staggered back and nearly fell if not that I held onto the old rusty walls.

"Ahhh…." I whisper yelled as a splitting headache slammed in followed by fever, I touch my hand on my forehead only to notice that I'm burning up. I manage to make what out of the prison since the guard already opened the door, the sunlight from the windows penetrated my eyes making me block them with my palms and then it dawned on me that it was noon already,

"I must have slept for a long'' I thought.

I was walking along the hallway leading to my room when I bumped into Nana

"My poor child….'' Nana cried out as she rushed toward me and engulf me in a hug

" Sorry I couldn't come last night the security was right," She said demonstrating with her hands almost making me laugh

"I'm fine Nana, how have you been?" I ask in a crack and hoarse voice

"Ohhh…you don't expect me to be fine when you've been locked up for a week now"

"It's fine Nana, I'm okay," I said cupping her cheeks

"Come here son" She gestured and felt my temperature with her hand

"Ohh…my child you're burning up, what's wrong with your mate? Why's she doing this to you"

"Nana is fine, I already accepted my fate"

"She better be nice or else one of these days I'll have no choice but to talk some sense into her, besides run along I need to get you drugs for fever"

"But Nana……''

" No complaint child go I'm coming"

"Fine…." I smile as I watch her hurrying off to get the drug, smiles spread across my face feeling the joy of motherhood from her.

I walk into my room tiredly, not forgetting the stares people were giving me while coming back from the prison. I know it's crazy, probably I look pathetic, but that's the last thing on my mind as I already have lots of them that I'm dealing with.

I walk into my bathroom and strip off my already distorted cloth, which has lost its color and all. I turn on the cold water and allow it to sink deep into my skin, including my soul. Since it's been days since I last took my bath, I need to wash my body over and over again for neatness.

I don't know for how long I stood under the shower, I know I must have exceeded the limit of time given to me, but at this point, I've already been through the worst that I'm not afraid anymore, I touched the necklace around my neck and wondered if it's the wish of the moon goddess to allow me go through all this pain.

I walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my waist

"Oh….my world Nana you scared me" I sprang back in fear as I wasn't expecting to see her already,

"Come here boy have this snack and take this drug, you need it," Nana said stretching forth nylon to me

I smile in appreciation as I took them from her,

"Thanks, Nana"

"You're welcome dear, hurry up you know how your mate can be"

"Okay," I smile and watch her leave.

I ate the food and took the drugs that Nana gave me, I changed into a new cloth and left for the Alpha's chamber.

It didn't take me long before I arrived, I knocked at the door and heard a

"Come in" Taking that as a clue, I pushed the door open and entered, my breath hitched when I saw the Alpha is with the ladies from the celebration the other time, my expression changed as the reason why she called me dawned on me

"Foolish me what was I thinking before?" I laugh at my inner self. Shamed filled me up, I wondered what I must have done that day, the looks on their faces showed it all, I took a peek at my mate to see her smiling at me wickedly, and so we're the ladies while some have pitiful looks on.

That instant I wish the ground could open so I enter

"Good day Alpha, good day everyone" I greeted with my head lowered in shame

"You're quite a handsome young man" I heard one of the ladies speak up but I dare not raise my head

"Since you're just a servant here, can't I take you on a date"

My head snapped up immediately,
