Lycidas Viscardo

Chapter Two

Feeling confined and feverish, my body heat spiked high as I lay on the cell floor. I couldn't smell anything and only tasted harsh cardboard. It has probably been at least a week now, and I'm worried the Alpha has forgotten me entirely. I just hoped he would've told me I would have a slow death. Both guards have been torturing me and raping my body to no end. I haven't spoken to my wolf in five days, and my body is getting weaker. With my eyes halfway closed, I didn't see a dark figure heading toward my cell, but I did hear a possessive growl, which only got louder as the figure got closer. I suddenly heard a crack of someone's neck snapping.

"Alpha." The guard that was left standing there gulped.

"Why does she smell like you and Jackson? And don't lie to me, Tyler." He smelled like moss, like the forest trees, and the voice got deeper, arousing me.

"Please. Don't kill me!" Tyler now stood there begging for his life, but it ended in a second as I heard another neck snap. I gulped, trying to breathe as the overwhelming scent got closer.

The cell door slowly opened and the scent got closer, making me cringe closer to the wall. Before me stood the ruthless, merciful, and cold-hearted Alpha of the world who happens to be my mate. My eyes were too swollen to fully open and look at the terrifying man in front of me. I whimpered as I felt a rough, callused hand on my chin, lifting it to the left.

My body was suddenly lifted into the air and carried away from the cell, then away from the basement. As the pain took over again, I whimpered.

"Soon, I will be at the doctor's, Olivia." Alpha's voice rang through my right ear. Once he said my name, I suddenly felt rigged. How did he know my name?

"You signed discharged papers." He answered. Did he read my mind? No, he couldn't.

"You're talking out loud." The Alpha didn't seem too interested in me, his mate. If only I could open my eyes to see his expression-it must've been a cold, hard expression.

"Again? What happened this time?" I could hear Doctor Pride in the background as I felt a hospital bed underneath me.

"Full body report, Pride. Don't disappoint me. Or I will have your head." Alpha's order is hard to avoid, especially if you're in his pack.

"Yes, Alpha." Before I could try to understand what was happening next, Doctor Pride suddenly medicated me, causing me to fall into a deep sleep.

Lycidas Pov:

Her once beautiful blonde hair is now tangled in a mess of dirt, dried cum, and blood. Her once ruby lips are cracked and bleeding. A white ripped t-shirt and black jeans were taken off and replaced by black sweatpants and a sweatshirt with my scent. Pride said it would help her heal faster, but I didn't care. I did not want a mate. She may be attractive, but I couldn't do more harm to her, especially with my reputation.

As she lay on the bed with medication, her wolf started to heal her again. I could understand why her wolf left for a while, as Jackson and Tyler raped her. My wolf felt horrible for not being there to save her. He so badly wanted to curl her up in our arms and tell her we wanted her, but I refused to let him. I will not be weak. I will not allow Olivia to become Luna, where she will be harmed more.
