Angelica could feel eyes on her as she finished the twentieth lap. She had been having this feeling of being watched but whenever she turned around nobody was there .

She quickly ran to the dungeons as all her instincts were screaming at her.

Just as she got in, the Alpha got in with the look alike knife she was almost stabbed with in the cheek.

His malicious smile made the situation more frightening as he opened a cell and took out a middle aged man by the neck.

"The stupid chosen fucking Alpha, I'm going to make his death slow and painful as you watch . It is your choice to save him or to let him die."

Moments passed by and Angelica was overcame by a feeling of protectiveness . She felt a need to stop the dictator and she almost shouted until Angel snarled in her mind bringing her back to her senses.

"Don't even try it out. You will be dead without a single thought."

She spaced out as the Alpha drawled on and on until he said ;

"Do you have any last words you bastard, seems like your saviour is not going to save you."

The man nodded and turned to the others
"Do not loose hope because even if he is here he needs to protect himself in order to set us free. As for me I have accepted my fate and I will die a happy man knowing I died to save the chosen one. I........"
Before he could finish his sentence the knife went through his stomach causing him to scream but before a second could pass the knife was removed and sunk into his heart .

As he sank to the floor his eyes empty, his breathe leaving his body, she found her voice and screamed covering her eyes.

The Alpha turned to look at her, eyes full of lust and walked away without a second glance.

"Clean up that mess!" Was all she heard as her world started swaying, going round and round until she felt like she was spinning.

Just as she was about to fall down, strong arms caught her and carried her bridal style .
"Hey listen to me. Listen to my voice okay. There is nothing to worry about everything will be fine . Just breathe to the rhythm of my heart and you will be fine okay."

She followed his voice until her breathing was back to normal . She opened her eyes to see Trey sitting beside her in her small room.

"Are you okay?" He asked with concern.

"I'm fine, what happened ?"

"You went into a panic attack when you saw that man's death. Don't worry you are a girl so you are safe.'

Trey's comment was meant to soothe her but it only infuriated her .

"So all these innocent men will be killed daily while you search for the so called chosen Alpha huh? Why is this so important to you that you just watch your father slaughter innocent lives and you do nothing about it!!" She snapped raising her voice .

"You think it is easy for me huh? I am the first born the rightful heir to my father's throne. And then there is the chosen Alpha who happens to be my brother and my father wants him dead because he will bring an end to my father's rule and I want him dead because he will steal my rightful place and maybe kill me so it's either I find him and be the one killing him and not being killed. So don't sit there and accuse me of anything you know nothing about!" He answered ferociously that it made her scramble away.
But she was also astonished by his confession. This left many questions that needed an answer, maybe she should try her luck.

"I'm so sorry. Where is your mother?" She asked politely

"She left when she was almost giving birth . She was found and beaten upon my father's orders. She escaped again and when she was caught again it was three years after giving birth to the chosen Alpha and I don't know where my father took her. Each time I tried asking he would get angry until I gave up on it. "

Wait ! This story was almost like a missing part on how her parents had described finding her birth mother but the woman gave birth to a boy so it maybe was a coincidence or maybe it was not so she probed on.

"Can you remember how she looked like? And do you ever miss her?" She asked

"She had fair skin, dark ebony hair like yours and a glass hour figure that everyone got jelous of . And I miss her so much that is why I am close to you because you remind me of her you know ."

Angelica smiled half heartedly. This story was the missing parts in her background story .
"What if you were fed the wrong story . What if your brother does not want to kill you but wants to end your father's rule because I also know you don't like it. What if you find him and talk to him, you know he did not choose his destiny it was chosen for her I mean him and he has to fulfill it. "

"Why did I not think about it before ? You know I've always wanted a sibling who can help me or even listen to me but I got none. Maybe you are right I'll talk to him first , I promise."

If only he knew she was his long lost sister!
