The Alpha Who Saved Me

Chapter 45

Emery

It’s been hours since anybody has been here and I really need to use the bathroom, so

when the door opens and a woman walks in, I sigh in relief. But before I can even ask

about relieving myself, she sneers at me. She doesn’t say any- thing as she walks back

and forth in front of me with a look of disgust plastered to her face. She looks to be about

my par- ents age, so I can’t say that maybe she’s a jealous female. She looks familiar,

though, and I realize that I’m staring at the witch’s mother.

“So, you’re the little b*tch that my son has been hot for all these years?” Her words are

laced with repugnance as her eyes sweep over me, “I’ve told him that it isn’t natural, that

he needs to find someone not of the same blood as that traitor brother of his, but he

wouldn’t listen. What Colin wants; he al- ways gets. I guess that is my fault, though, for

spoiling him as a child.”

Enter title…

Did she say years? Has he been lusting after me all this time? My stomach begins to

turn once again, but then as she continues to talk, I not only learn my uncle’s name, but I

caught on to the meaning behind her words. She’s not dis- gusted that I’m related by

blood, only that I have the same blood as my father, who in the eyes of the Shikari, is a

traitor. What the f*ck is wrong with these people?

“May I use the bathroom.” I ask without even looking at

Her laughter says it all, “Do I look like a f*cking se*vant to you? I’m not here to help you

in any way. I only came to see the b*tch that will soon be laying on her back, spreading

her legs for my son night after night.”

“I will never allow that piece of s*it to touch me in that way; he’s disgusting, and so are

you if you are condoning it!” I spat.

Pain spreads across my face as the woman back hands me, “How dare you say that

about my son?” She then kicks me in the ribs and continues to kick me until I’m no

longer mov- ing, and my bladder releases its contents, “Ugh, you are f*ck- ing pathetic! I

hope you enjoy sitting in your filth because no- body will be in anytime too soon to help

clean you up.”
