"Cassie Patterson, age 17, was last seen at her local fair with friends after she stated she was going to grab a quick drink. She was wearing a blue romper and black sandals. If you have any-"
The television was cut off, followed by a faint laugh.
"Emily," she chirped, "you shouldn't be watching that. Instead, how about you help me in the kitchen? I could use your help."
Looking up at her through my lashes, my blood boiled as my heart raced in my chest. Inside, I was throwing a ragging fit, using the lamp to render her unconscious, and racing out the front door. But I knew I couldn't. She would have me pinned to the floor in an instant.
I gave a simple nodded, picking at my shirt sleeve. She smiled, turned, and walked out the room. Once she was a safe distance, I let out a breath I never realized I was holding.
"My name's Cassie, not Emily."
**
At her local fair, Cassie gets whisked away by a father and mother looking to repair their broken family. How long can she make it?
I glared up at him my eyes narrowed, "Excuse me?" I was beyond livid by the words that just came out of his mouth. My glare didn't falter when Parker towered over me, clenching his jaw while trapping me against his desk.
"You heard me."
Parker's voice was low and intimidating that it made me feel so small. But I wasn't going to let him get to me.
Standing up taller, I snapped, "I will not be your personal toy, available for you to do just as you please! I do not want to be held captive against my will, and not even have a say in anything. To be honest, I don't even want a mate."
"You will do everything and anything I say, do you hear me?" Parker growled grabbing my chin and forcing me to look at him.
Without even thinking I said the first thing that came to my head but meant every word.
"I, Jasmine Davis, reject you Alpha Parker Mason, as my mate."
