Chained By The Alpha Jessica Hall

"What's going on?" Zayn questions but I haven't got time to answer. "I need to go," I tell him, pushing him aside

"He's really got a leash on you, hasn't he," Zayn murmurs, his eyes darkening at his words before quickly pulling me toward him. He wraps his arms around me, I sigh, relishing the contact, it's nice to be touched when all week I've earned nothing but sneers from Lydia and criticism from my father

"Zayn, I can't be here with you," I whisperContent (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

urgently, glancing towards the door. My father had been watching me like a hawk, and I knew it was only a matter of time before he realized I wasn't alone. "He took my phone, and I'm in so

much trouble already. Deacon has not returned, and I have to focus on school now."

"School?" His brow furrowed. "When do you go back?"

"Tomorrow," I replied, my voice cracking with anxiety. "Please, Zayn, I need to go. If my father catches us..."

"Alright." He sighs, clearly frustrated but understanding the gravity of the situation."Come on," he says softly, releasing me and cracking open the door to make sure the coast was clear. "You need to get back before your father notices you're gone."

I nod, swallowing hard as I step out of the closet and rush to the locker room into the harsh light of reality

"Cleo!" My father's voice cut through the air like a knife as I exited the stadium, making me jump

He was waiting for me by his car, his expression unreadable. I approach cautiously, trying to act as casual as possible

"Where 1s Lydia?" I ask him

"Linda picked her up," my father answered without explaining further. The ride home is tense and silent, my heart pounding in my chest as I wonder what my father is thinking

"Where are we going?" I finally ask when it becomes clear we weren't heading straight home. "I thought we were going home?"

"We will," he replies cryptically, still not meeting my gaze. "Afterward."

"Where are we going?" I press, growing

increasingly anxious. My father refuses to answer, and as we pull up to a doctor's office, my stomach drops like a stone. "No!" I exclaim, realizing what he intends to do as I catch sight of Alpha Dane waiting at the nearby doors

"Cleo, as the next alpha, you need to make sacrifices," my father says sternly, ignoring my protests. "This is a small discomfort for the sake of your future pack."

"Absolutely not." I refuse, trying to climb out of the car and escape this nightmare. But Alpha Dane approaches, blocking my path. "Cleo!" My father grits out and I glare at him

"No!" I snap at him slamming the door only to turn around to find Alpha Dane blocking my path with two of his warriors

"T won't marry your son, and I'm leaving." I tell

him, trying to step past him when his warriors block my path

"Your father and I have already signed the treaty agreement," Alpha Dane replies coldly, his eyes boring into mine. "The paperwork is ready to file. You don't have a choice."

"Like fuck I don't you can't force me to marry your son!" My voice is barely audible, but the defiance in my eyes speaks volumes. As I turn away from him, only for his men to grab me

I struggle against the strong hands that hold me, panic and disbelief flooding my senses. "Dad, help me!" I scream, desperate for my father to do something, anything. But he sits there, not even bothering to get out of the car, head in his hands, making no move to save me from this nightmare

"Get your hands off me!" I spit as Alpha Dane's men drag me toward the door and into the medical room. The sterile smell of disinfectant filled my nostrils, making me feel even more vulnerable and exposed

"Remove your pants," Alpha Dane orders coldly, his eyes unyielding as they bore into mine. I clench my fists and shook my head, unable to speak through the fury and humiliation that chokes me. "If you won't do it voluntarily, I'll have my men do it for you, Cleo," Alpha Dane sneers. "Your little scene at the club has raised enough questions, my son won't have a whore for Luna." he spits at me just as a female doctor steps into the room. I look at her for help and she drops her gaze but finally speaks

"Your presence isn't needed here, Alpha Dane," the female doctor interjects, her voice firm but

laced with sympathy. "Please leave."

Alpha Dane looks like he is going to argue but the doctor. "She is entitled to privacy Alpha. I can't perform the exam if she is tense and fighting me." she quickly adds

Reluctantly, he retreats from the room, taking his men with him. The door clicks shut behind them, leaving me alone with the doctor

"Please," I plead, tears streaming down my face

"T don't want this exam."

The doctor looks at me with pity in her eyes

"T'm sorry," she said softly. "I've been given orders. If you refuse, Alpha Dane has men who will hold you down. It's best if you cooperate, it is uncomfortable, but not painful and will only take a few minutes. I just need a sample of your slick." I scoff. I can't believe my father would

allow this. Tears burn my eyes

"Please, I don't want to order them in, you have every right to feel violated, this is an abuse of power, but I am under command, I can't let you leave this room without that sample." she tells me and I can hear how badly she doesn't want to force me

Horrified by the thought of enduring this violation while being forcibly restrained, I comply, feeling my dignity shatter as I remove my pants. Each moment of the exam is an invasion I never would have imagined my own father would force upon me
