Chapter 15
I woke up slowly. My brain didn’t seem like it wanted to work right now. I could hear a steady beeping, but I couldn’t make my eyes open. I took a steadying breath and tried not to panic. Had I been drugged? That didn’t make a ton of sense since I was almost definitely in a comfy bed. I remembered I had been with the Alpha King, but it all felt fuzzy.
I wondered if the Alpha King was still with me, and that was enough of a thought to force my eyes open. I scanned the room. It was white with white cabinets, and what looked like medical supplies everywhere. Crap. Was I in the hospital?
My breath caught when I saw him. His dark brown hair looked as though he had worn a path through it by running his hand through it so many times. His eyes held shadows, and
his expression was grim.
I frowned, my panic growing a little. I had troubled him. I was the cause of that serious
expression on his face.
I grabbed his sleeve. I wanted to apologize for all the trouble I had caused but I had no
idea where to even start. I didn’t know what had happened that had even caused me to be
here.
Rhys looked at me for the first time since I had woken up, and removed my hand from his sleeve, looking irritated.
“Don’t touch me right now,” The Alpha King snapped.
I pulled back into myself. What did I do that made him so angry?
“That headache you had was a direct result of you having intimate relations with
someone who didn’t mark you.”
I looked at him in confusion. I didn’t know that you couldn’t kiss or be sexual without a mate, that didn’t make sense for what was happening back in my old pack. And wouldn’t that be something that the Alpha King knew? I mean, did he also get a headache like I did?
“How could you not have told me that you were marked by your mate when I was going on about how you would be my bride, and I was thinking that you might be my mate?”

I frowned in surprise. What was he talking about? Marked by mate? I didn’t have a mate…
Suddenly I was back in that dungeon cell that I had lived in for so long. I was feeling off that day and was laying in my cot. I was never truly given the day off, but after a lot of mistakes, Kathy, the head of servants had taken pity on me and sent me to lay down for a
while.
I heard the door to the dungeon steps open, but I didn’t have the energy to care about who was coming down. I never saw the man’s face, but I wished I would have hid or done
literally anything.
I still remember the gravelly sound of his voice that day as he told me how long he had waited for this opportunity. How I was a hard woman to catch alone. He complained that I was always busy, even though my workload was well within his control. And then he got closer. I hated the way his fingers trailed my body, and how his mouth eventually found
mine. It didn’t matter how many times I pushed him away, he wouldn’t stop. It never went further because I had managed to get out from under him and run. I slept in the
forest for 3 days after that, and I tried never to be alone with any male ever again, but it
didn’t stop the males in my pack from from trying… I wondered if it was during one of
those moments that he had managed to mark me… How could he? How could he have
taken away my choice?
