Alpha Angello

Chapter Six: Vacant

After being locked up in a room for hours, you get thirsty especially when you're crying all those hours. I opened the mahogany door looking both sides checking if the coast was clear after seeing that it was I silently tiptoed down the hall. The house was very dark and oddly quiet, it felt empty. I went to the dinning hall and it was empty, not even the table was there. I went through a door on the opposite side of the entrance, a kitchen. It too was empty all but a single glass of water was placed on the counter. There was no refrigerator, no microwave, no food, no dishes and no sink just one simple counter with one glass of water.

I picked it up and gulped it down completely, engraved on the bottom of the cup was 'RUN'... I began to feel eerie vibes as if someone was watching me or someone was bound to pop out and take me. I picked up clinging noises coming from  another room followed by scratches and wall scrapings. I'm not one to get scared easily but I was a bit on edge. I looked around for anything I could use to defend myself, but nothing it was all vacant not even the cup was there I tuned back around to look at the door and the doorknob slightly turned...a light metal creek was echoing through the kitchen. My heart beat increased rapidly, now I was frightened more like terrified.

My eyes shot open I took a look at my surroundings realizing that I was laying on the cold wooden floor. I stood up and laid on the queen size bed and drifted back to sleep.

Days have passed since I left the room, I lost track after day four. Olivia comes in every so often to check in and make sure that I've eaten the food that Alicia; a house maid, brought up or just to entertain me. Bella only came once just to give me a phone with her number registered in case I needed something or someone to talk to. I keep myself entertained by playing a stupid panda pop game on the phone or by watching reruns of family guy and friends, I mostly sleep though. I'm probably the most beautiful person on the planet with how much beauty sleep I've been getting. I haven't talked to nor have I seen the Alpha. I do listen to his heavy footsteps near my door but he never comes in and frankly I don't want him to. I mean what would I say, " I hate you because you slapped me." Or "I'm sorry I went out of line" I'm just lost. I haven't heard from Autumn since the night I shifted (when I stopped Angello from killing Peter). I just want to know how she's doing. She hasn't said anything since we found out Angello was our mate and this is when I need her the most. I know she's there I could feel her but she won't talk.

The sun was starting to set. I decided a nice warm bath would do me good after being locked in here another day...according to Bella it's my 7th day locked in here. I don't know why I keep saying locked when the door isn't locked I could leave and go as I please. I grabbed a glittery pink bath bomb from the crystal jar that Olivia had given me apparently bath bomb making is her stress relief. I placed the ball in the center of the bath watching as it erupt releasing a variety of colors pink, blue, green and yellow the water turned into this beautiful dark rich green with little sparkles making it look like river water. I laid on the tub just thinking. Playing scenarios that would never happen.

If I was human I'd live in New York. I would work in a small cafe and go to a university and major in Literature. I'd get married at the age of 28 have 2 kids and then move to California where I could raise them. I hate this. I hate feeling as if I have to be owned by another, I just want to be me. I want to be free, I wanted to live my life without a mate. It's not fair that our lives are written out by someone who we have never met or who doesn't know us. She just randomly pairs us up without thinking of the consequences or without taking us into consideration. "Maybe if I just..." I sunk my head lower into the water than it already was. I laid on the bottom of the tub seeing as how the little sparkles floated across the tub around me. My eyes began to slowly shut as I welcomed the water into my lungs not fighting to rise up.
