Chapter 16
My stomach sunk. I was not what the Alpha King wanted anymore. I was ruined. He wouldn’t want me anymore. I tried to take a steadying breath, but it came out shaky. There was no point in telling the Alpha what I sort of remembered. I knew it was my fault that I had not been strong enough to fight him.
The anger on Alpha King Rhys‘ face was palpable. Oh god…What if he sent me back to them? Would I even survive going back to that place? Just kill me now if that’s the case…
I can’t. I can’t go back.
“I will be looking further into this matter, Grace.” He said, his voice scary dark.
I couldn’t help it, my body started shaking. I knew it was all too good to be true. He was going to send me back when he figured out exactly who it is I belonged to because it
wasn’t him.
He looked at me for the first time since dropping all of this information, and his face
softened just a little.
“No matter what I find out Grace,” He leaned over me, lifting my chin so my eyes met his. “You will not be going back there. I will not allow them to harm another hair on your head. I know that all that has happened to you is not your fault.”
I breathed a sigh of relief and nodded against his hand. I could feel my body connect with my head again, and I realized how much pain I was in.
“Now that you are awake and aware of what’s going on, let’s go back to your room. Can
you walk?”
Despite the pain, I nodded. I could be tough, I would find a way to be useful, so he couldn’t get rid of me if he finds something he doesn’t like.
I knew my old wounds had reopened when I stood up, and I felt the usual painful stretch of lingering injuries. I had worked through these many times before, but it usually took some time for me to block the pain from my brain.
We moved slowly as I tried to gather my bearings, but it was harder than I remembered. I had had worse injuries countless times, but this time, I could barely function.

Chapter 16
“This is ridiculous,” Alpha King Rhys said after a few minutes before I was swept off my
feet and in his arms.
He didn’t say another word the whole way back, and when we got to my room, he sat me on the bed. As soon as I was out of his arms, he was on the phone with who I guessed was his Beta and Gamma. He paced the room for a few minutes before hanging up.
“I have matters to attend to Grace. Get some rest.” He said as soon as he hung up, and
before I could even try and stop him, he was gone.
I looked around from my spot on the bed. I felt really small. I didn’t want to be alone at all, but who would I go to? I thought about going to find Alana, but I talked myself out of it. She probably had only hung out with me because it was her job. I let out a sob. Even in all my time in my old pack when I was completely isolated, I had never felt this alone. Another sob escaped my lips, and the tears wouldn’t stop.
Between the pain and the loneliness, I couldn’t seem to function. I was mated to someone who wasn’t the Alpha King. I had been unconscious because of it. I had pain because of it. I didn’t even know who I was anymore. I was nothing. I was used. And I cried myself right
into an uneasy sleep.
