Slaved To The Alpha

When I looked down, there she was, looking at me with a smile as she was waving. I was compromised. I needed to make my move fast, or else she would’ve caught me. I was pretty high up, so I wasn’t sure if she saw my face or not.

“I see you! Come on! Let’s just go for a little walk.” She said in an enthusiastic tone of voice, but I didn’t know if she was being sarcastic or not, so I just made a run for it so that I wouldn’t have to talk to her.

I ran as fast as I could, jumping from to the next tree branch and then to the next again. I didn’t stop for a couple of minutes when I did, and I tried to look around for her. I didn’t sense her anywhere near me. I also didn’t smell her scent. So that was a good sign. I sighed and turned around.

“Hi.” She said in an enthusiastic tone of voice the moment I turned around, and she was near my face. I don’t know how she got there. I don’t even know how she could mask her scent so that I could sense or smell her.

She looked at me with that smug face of hers and a smile that looked like she had won, whatever this is.

Grant’s POV

She was looking at me with a smile, and she looked like she had just won something. This isn’t a competition. I was just trying to take a stroll when she suddenly popped out of nowhere, the audacity of her to even look at me like she outplayed me. Still, she is fast, and I don’t even know how she was able to mask her scent like that. I couldn’t sense her anywhere near me earlier, especially when she sneaked up on me from behind.

“Hey, Grant? What are you doing out here?” She asked me in a sarcastic voice as she moved closer to me. “You’re not going to talk again?”

I sighed deeply and just stared at her in the eyes. “Look, I don’t want anything to do with you right now, okay? I’m just trying to…” She put her hand on my lips before I could even finish what I was saying. Despite her being a maid, she is quite rude to me. Hopefully, she isn’t like this to others, or else she would surely end up being imprisoned or worse.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

The tree branch we were sitting on was just the right fit for the two of us, so there was no room to scoot over and adjust. We were practically very close, and my heart started beating so fast that I couldn’t control it. Why was it beating so fast? I wasn’t nervous, maybe because I sprinted earlier as fast as I could? No! That isn’t it. I usually run faster than that when I do run, and I’m still not exhausted. I am definitely not nervous. What could be causing this? Ugh! I hate that she always interferes with what I want to do. We’ve only known each other for like a day or two, but she is already feeling close. Is this because of fate? Does she still think that is real?

Krisna really thinks that we are perfect for each other like we are supposed to be the ones getting married, we are each other’s soulmates? What a load of nonsense. None of that is real! When she wakes up and realizes that none of it is real, they may be able to trick other people into thinking that their soulmate is just out there. Well, It’s no. You don’t know your soulmate until you meet them, not in some stupid prophecy or the Annual Pack Gathering.

From my experience, you will only meet your soulmate when the two know that they love each other for who they are. It is not forced, nor is it said in some stupid prophecy. I know this because all of the ones that actually relied on fate for their significant other are fake. It is just a coincidence that they actually followed until the two got together.

In my case, that isn’t true. Besides, I already have women that I like, not in a romantic way, a physical relationship, and that’s where I draw the line.

There’s no commitment, no pressure, only pleasure. I don’t have to worry about breaking someone’s heart, and they don’t have to worry about breaking mine. Hopefully, Krisna will soon realize that none of this is real and that she will never get what she wants because I don’t believe in any of it, period.

“Look, Grant. You don’t have to deny what we have. I fully accept what’s going to happen since I only knew about it when we got here. You and I are bound together, and there’s nothing both of us can do. We just have to accept our fate and deal with it. Don’t you know that I’m new to this as well? I’m not the only one afraid here, I know you’re afraid as well, but you just don’t show it. On the other hand, I know how to express myself fully, what I’m feeling, and what I’m thinking. I know how to convey all of them to my significant other, which in this case, would be you.” She said in an enthusiastic tone of voice. She was really serious about it. At first, I thought she was still being sarcastic and was just fooling around. But now that I heard her say all of that, I now know that she really is serious about what she wants to do with me.

I can’t do what she is asking because I don’t believe in what she believes since all of that is just lies and empty promises that are meant to be broken in one way or another. I don’t care no matter how much she begs, and I don’t care about her looks. She is forcing me into a relationship I don’t want to be in, just like how I was forced to host this stupid Annual Pack Gathering.

Accept our fate? I’m not like her, and I’m not going to just sit around and do nothing while fate takes place. But, true or not, I’m my own master, and nothing can take that away from me, not even fate.
