Enslaved By The Alpha

Kane takes a sip of his drink, and even though he acts unbothered, his eyes are on Ben’s fingers digging into my waist. I can’t tell if he’s annoyed or happy that another man is touching me. The mate bond is supposed to affect him just like it affects me, but so far, all I can see is a cold, heartless man staring back at me. I don’t understand my luck; almost everyone finds a mate that shows some sort of emotion but not mine; he’s the worst of them all.

“Drink some more.” He tells Ben, “we will finalize the payment in a few minutes, and then you can leave with her.”

I’m so disgusted by both men. I can’t believe that people like them are just walking around freely; they should be locked away in cells. I knew that trying to escape now would not be an intelligent choice; I was surrounded by men who had orders to keep me locked up at all times. Part of me already knows that Ben would not release me, not with those dirty looks he’s been sending my way ever since he first saw me. However, I want to stay positive; I want to believe that he will change his mind when he finds out wholam.

Judging by how he acted when he first saw me, he definitely didn’t know that I was a princess and the sister of some of the most powerful men in the supernatural world.

Even if he did try anything, I would fight to my death before I let him touch me.

Ben does as my mate says and takes a big gulp of his drink without moving his arms around me. I hate his touch. I wish to burn his hands. How many women have this man taken without their permission?

The way they spoke, he often bought women from Kane; this wasn’t something new. It was a recurring transaction, and I was just another woman about to be sold.

Anna watches me with envy in her eyes; what could she possibly be jealous about? I wouldn’t want to see my worst enemy in the position that I was in right now.
