"You poor ogas, why are you standing here?"
A redheaded girl sneered as she approached. "Don’t you know you’re polluting the air?"
She wore the shortest skirt I’d ever seen—her butt cheeks almost hanging out. The crop top clung to her chest so tightly it looked painful. An oga trailed behind her, carrying a plate of snacks.
"Who is she?" I whispered to Annabel.
"She’s Olivia, daughter of the pack trainer. She thinks she’s going to be the Alpha’s mate."
Oh God, who in their right mind would want to be mated to that blood-sucking psycho?
"Are you deaf? I’m talking to you two!" Olivia shouted.
"I’m sorry," Annabel said quickly. "The Alpha is sleeping, so we’re waiting outside until he wakes up."
"I don’t care if he’s asleep. Go ahead give her the tray." She pointed at . "Take this to the Alpha."
"What? ?" My voice cracked. "I can’t go in there! He’ll kill ! I’m sorry, ma’am. The Alpha is sleeping. He can’t be disturbed."
"Do I look like I care?" she snapped, thrusting the plate into my hands. "Take this snack to him now. Tell him it’s from ."
"The Alpha is awake," one of the guards announced. Olivia snatched the plate back and dashed into the office, the oga girl close behind her. That was close. Then I heard the scream.
"Ahhhh!" The Two guards dragged out the oga’s lifeless body.
"She’s dead," one said flatly. "He killed her."
Two more guards followed, each gripping one of Olivia’s arms. She was badly injured but still breathing. That’s it. I’m running away from this place. He’s killed three people in one day and I might be next.
"Oh, Moon Goddess..." Annabel whispered, trembling. "I don’t want to die." She broke into sobs.
"Why are you two still out here?" a voice asked. I turned to see Elizabeth, the Alpha’s sister approaching. "The Alpha is awake. You should be inside serving him."
"We’re sorry," I said. "He was asleep. We didn’t want to disturb him."
"That’s fine. He’s awake now. Go in. He might need sothing."
Goddess help . I know I’m going to die today. We entered the Alpha’s office. He sat there, relaxed, bloodshot eyes gleaming. As if he hadn’t just murdered three people.
"Why are these ogas walking like fools?" he muttered under his breath. "Can’t they walk like normal wolves? And who dressed them? They look ridiculous."
His voice again. The one only I could hear—his inner thoughts.
"Why is she staring at like that? Has she seen a ghost?"
Of course she has. You just murdered three people I said to myself
"Hmmm... this one slls like roses," he continued. "I wonder what her blood slls like. Should I bring her closer and slit her throat?"
Oh God, he’s thinking of killing .
"She’s got a nice shape though. What color of panties is she wearing? What if I bend her over and take her right here?"
That’s it. I need to run. He’s either going to kill or rape .
"Alpha, is there anything you need?" I asked, desperate to escape from here.
"She’s got a sweet voice," he thought. "I wonder how she’d moan if I fuck her right now. But why does she walk like a toad?"
Excuse ?! Did he just call a toad in his mind?!
"All the ogas in this pack are ugly—except this toad," he added. His eyes raked over like I was sothing to eat.
"It’s already afternoon. Where’s my lunch? Useless ogas."
This psycho wants lunch? After killing the last girl who brought him a snack? At least I can hear his thoughts. I’ll know when to run.
"I’m tired of eating at every day," he continued. "Can’t they cook sothing different? And why is this toad still staring at ? Should I kill her? I’ll count to twenty. If I don’t have lunch by then, I’ll kill her."
1... 2... 3...
"No, Alpha! I’m going to get your lunch now!" I scread, bolting from the office. Annabel followed, panic in her eyes. We rushed to the kitchen. Elizabeth was directing the cook. "Add more at. Make the soup thicker. Spicier. Hurry. He must be hungry." When she turned and saw , she smiled.
"Still alive? Impressive. Most don’t last more than an hour. You? Three hours."
The worst three hours of my life, I said to myself.
"The Alpha’s lunch, ma’am."
"Just in ti. Here." She handed two plates at and soup. Annabel grabbed the wine and water. What if he doesn’t like it? Will he kill too? Just as we enter his office I heard him again
"Hope this toad brought at," I heard him think. "Or her flesh will replace it."
My knees nearly buckled. We placed the dishes on his desk. He stared at it like we just served him poison.
"Taste it," he ordered coldly.
My hands shook as I took a spoonful of soup, then stabbed a piece of at with the fork. I turned to Annabe and offered her so, she collected the at from her hand shaking as she at it.
"Alpha... I... have—" The words wouldn’t co out.
"Why’s this toad stuttering? And chewing like that? She looks like a toad. Talks like a toad. Slls like vanilla though..."
He snatched the spoon from and tasted the soup.
"Not bad," he muttered. "Let’s try the at. Maybe I’ll find a reason to kill soone."
"Oh God, He’s hunting for an excuse again. He took a bite. His face twisted with rage. He flipped the table. Annabel fainted. He looked from to her collapsed body.
"I didn’t even touch her. Why did she faint?"
Because you’re a psycho killer!
"Who cooked this garbage?" he snapped.
"Alpha... the cook," I replied, heart thudding.
"Call her. Now."
"Yes, Alpha." I ran to the kitchen, praying the cook wouldn’t die today.
"Elie... what’s wrong? Why’s the Alpha calling ?" the cook asked. "Did I do sothing wrong? I followed Elizabeth’s instructions!"
"There’s nothing wrong with the food. He’s just a killer, I thought. My chest ached with guilt. The cook followed sensing she was in danger. We entered the office. I bowed, then stepped aside in case he wants to kill too then I can easily run from this corner
"Why is the toad hiding in the corner?" the Alpha thought. "Does she want to strangle her there?"
I imdiately returned to the cook’s side.
"I’m sorry, Alpha," I whispered.
"She’s apologizing again. This toad really is sothing. A cute one, though. I won’t kill her yet. Let deal with the cook first."
"Alpha, I’m sorry" I made the food the way Elizabeth instructed too.
"Co closer the Alpha said.
Oh please don’t go closer, he’s going to kill you too I said to myself. The cook walked close to the Alpha and I heard a crack sound. The cook fell down.Dead. He broke her neck!!. I wanted to scream. But my voice failed . The fourth death. In just one day. Everything spun. And then darkness.
