Alpha Games

Chapter 62-Heat

How much longer would this last? Ice baths, dry ice packed around me, nothing soothed the continuous aches and the desire pulling me down and pushing to be set it free.

Every male i had ever seen popped into my head making it feel like i was going to explode, a volcano ready to erupt and lava pour over the land.

Fire in my veins, the sweet flames licked at my glands and I could feel my body melting. 

Slow trickles of sweat formed and slid across my skin, every tidal wave of heat was worse than the previous. I could feel every nerve in my body , every neuron that fired to the next was a shock to my system. 

A scream tore through me was I shot up to only be pushed back down. Gezara's voice was no comfort as I screamed in agony again "Sarah, shh. Its okay I am here, i've got an ice bath ready come on." I felt by body lifting and tried to stand on my feet wincing in pain. 

Everything hurt, my head, skin, feet, the perspiration coating me only made it worse as it drained down from my standing position. She set me into the bath and it caused a small sigh from me, the ice cooling the ache only slightly. I breathed a thank you to her as I slid lower into the tub.

I opened my eyes looking though the water at the blurring figure of Gezara, she looked faded and tired. Her hair was tied in a loose bun, strands falling everywhere as she looked back at me her eyes sad and filled with pity. I hated those looks, the looks that made you feel weak. 

I was weak though wasn't I? I had let my guard down and had been marked by a male who was not my mine. It was my own fault, i knew he was never mine but i let my human side fall in love with him. He had wiped my tears so many times, he cant have my love anymore, my eyes are done letting them fall for him.

Every-time i closed my eyes his face was staring back at me, awakening something inside that wanted, no needed him. I growled in annoyance and pain racked through me again, i was exhausted. Fighting the mark was killing me and i knew it. 

Sadie was quiet and still as i watched her breathing, closing my eyes to focus on her, it only made my guilt worse. Had i been the good princess i was supposed to be we would never have gotten into this trouble. My nickname was more of a curse now than a loving endearment from my childhood. 

I was in deep shit now, I lifted my body up just enough to take in a breath from the ice water. The next wave of heat hit me and i gripped the tub tightly. "breath Sarah, in and out" Gezara reached out to me and my skin started to heat with her touch. 

I could feel Sadie whine and stir, she started to spout words but i couldn't understand her. My body was on fire again, i looked down into the water expecting it to be bubbling like a hot tub. I felt like i was in a sauna, my skin tingled and the blood rushing through me was making it hard to think.

My mind screamed for skin to skin contact, I needed to mate. The only words i could understand from Sadie as she clawed at my mind, i gripped the tub harder and shook my head trying to regain my slipping composure.

I looked at Gezara "Please help me Gez, i hurts so much" I breathed out as another wave hit me like a sledge hammer to the gut and i slipped back into the water, the liquid sloshing over the edges. I screamed as another sharp pain hit and my core throbbed, the ice was long gone and the water was starting to hurt my skin.

Gezara sighed and wiped the hair from my face "Sarah, I am so sorry this is happening to you but father is continuing the games. You will have a mate by the end of the day, then this will all be over. Just hang on a little longer" 

I growled as i stood up in the tub, how can he keep the games going? What if Max wins? I needed to be there...

I had made it to the door and was about to pull it open, Gezara steadily hollering at me to stop went unheard. My nakedness did not effect my need to leave, to find someone. I felt a sharp shocking sensation and winced looking down, the door was glowing a small shade of silver and i realized it was to keep me in.
