Alphas Toy

Hope.

It was a week and I was still here. Trapped. No progress whatsoever.

No phone calls. No emails. No nothing.

As promised, I was given my freedom. So I've been spending my time in the library, game room, eating around and just walking around the place. I haven't been able to do much research but in the library, there was a whole section on werewolves. Like why would you have a whole section on werewolves unless the people here have some sort of secret obsession.

And in those books, I found explanations on "mate" which apparently is like being a soul mate. I didn't understand it properly but I just know it relates to couples and love. I knew Jacob was lying to me and not telling me the full story.

No one here is telling me the full story.

Even Christopher doesn't talk to me. I'm just here without purpose. He lets me live and have freedom, it's not like he harms me. But then we have no form of communication. So what in the hell am I doing here? I'm sure when girls get kidnapped, their experience isn't like mines. I'm beginning to think that I probably mean a lot more than just a random girl he found on the streets. Why am I really here?

No, that's probably just their way of manipulating me, brainwashing me to make me want to stay here. As if it's some sort of leisure holiday.

My train of thoughts was suddenly interrupted when I bumped into a wall. "Erghhh" I groaned at the wall, but then I realised that the wall was holding me, no wonder I didn't fall flat on the ground. Thanks wall. Wait this wall has hands?

I looked up. It was Christopher. Shit, this was the first time I've seen him since the night at the garage. Recalling my distaste towards him, I jumped out of his hold.

"Thanks for not letting me fall but you should watch where you're walking" I muttered under my breath, not intending for him to hear, as I walked passed him.

But he side stepped, blocking my way. "Actually it was you who wasn't watching where she was going. I was in fact being very vigilant in my walking" he said in an amused tone. I still didn't look up at his face. He disgusts me.

I'm rather harsh but you know life's a bitch.

"Whatever. Move" I muttered, attempting to go past him again.

"What were you thinking about anyways? You looked like you were having deep thoughts" the amused tone remained.

"None of your business"

"Come on just tell me. I can keep a secret" he chuckled.

"Why are you treating me like a kid? I'm your hostage remember"

He sighed in frustration.

"And we created a deal remember? So far you aren't being very cooperative" he said, being slightly more harsh.

"Christopher, what am I truly doing here? I know it's not just some family tradition. And this isn't the ordinary kidnapping situation. Don't deny it. So why am I here" I sighed, finally looking up at him.

"You're right. It's not your ordinary kidnapping situation. It's extraordinary like me" he attempted lightheartedly to change the mood.

"So that's it? I'm just going to be here without knowing why? Like if I'm part of an experiment, can I at least know that?" I asked, my train of thoughts evolving rapidly.

He chuckled, obviously finding me amusing "What on earth goes through your head anyways? An experiment, seriously? Look, I think you should just try to embrace your stay here. Your family isn't worried and if you don't try to escape, they won't be in harms way either. And I'm not controlling you so you have all the freedom here. I know my friends tried talking to you so please just give them a chance. And gradually you'll find out the full truth. I just can't tell you everything now. I'm sorry" he said, sincerely. I actually believed everything he said. Curse my stupid innocence to trust easily.

But what about my old life? Why was I expected to move on.

"Okay" I said, surprising the both of us. I don't know why the hell I just accepted this.

What about my promise to leave and escape? My faith.

I don't know but in that moment it felt right to say okay and to trust him.

To trust someone for once.

He smiled and I offered a half smile.

Then I awkwardly walked away.
