Melissa was confused. She didn't know what is happening. All this new information is making her lose her mind. She felt like the more she is beginning to know the truth, the more complicated everything becomes.
Melissa didn't prepare enough for this whole revelation. She took a deep breath to know who are real parents were " Who are my real parent?"
The older lady looks sad " from our findings, we found out that you are the daughter of a very important Alpha.
" Alpha?" It came as a shock to her.
" Yes, dear. We didn't know how that was possible but that is the truth. Your father and I were very scared that they threw you away because they didn't want you which was why we decided to keep you until the right time comes so we can tell you the truth"
" This is so hard to take in mom. Why would my real parent throw me away?" She asked sadly " Was I not good enough for them?"
" Don't say that dear, you are good enough. I'm sure there is a lot we don't know "
Melissa burst out in tears " I've brought nothing but pain upon you people. Why do I keep bringing pain upon people around me mom, my mate hates me a lot. I hate myself too"
" I wish I have all the answers to your problem. It pains me that you have to suffer this much. You are such a good child and any parent will want to have you as their child "
" But my real parent never wanted me, " Melissa said sadly " They had to throw me away because I was cursed"
" Don't say that. You were never cursed"
" I am. I brought this up to you and father. You two don't deserve this. Dad is ill and doesn't need to be somewhere around here. I need to talk to alpha Ronald. He promised to keep you safe but he betrayed me " she said
" Don't worry about, us, dear. You need to worry about yourself. All your life, you've always worried about people around you. It's high time you worry about yourself. Start thinking about what you want and what you don't "
" I don't care anymore, I just want to make you guys happy for the rest of your life. You took me into your home like I'm yours. You've shown me nothing but love. I don't think I'm ready to share the love I have for you two with anyone else. You two are the greatest blessing to me "
" I love you so much dear," the older lady said.
" Love you too mom"
They heard footsteps approaching them. It turned out to be Steven. He wore his signature smirk. He stood in front of Melissa's ward.
" The alpha request for you," he said then opened the door for her.
Melissa didn't let her guard down. She promised not to bow down before them. She needs to do everything in her power to release her parent.
Steven dragged her out. She tried to push his hands away from her but he was holding too tight.
" Let me go" She gritted
" What will you do if I don't " He taunted.
She knew this is what he likes best. Seeing her beg and she wasn't ready to give him the satisfaction he wants. She needs to keep her ground. She glared at him and then pushed his arms off her with so much strength. She didn't know where that amount of strength came from. Steven was also taken by surprise judging the look on his face at the moment.
" What was that?" He said in shock " You are a witch"
She shrugged " You better start getting scared of me then "
Steven stared at her with shock " You are so weird "
" Glad you noticed that now "
Steven didn't say anything longer. He guided her to the place where Alpha Ronald was waiting for her.
****
She twist the doorknob and then went inside. She wasn't as scared as she thought she would be.
Ronald had his back turned at her.
" Alpha " she called.
Ronald turned around to face her. He has a wide smirk on his face " Hope you enjoyed your stay at the dungeon tonight "
She forced a smile on her face " wouldn't have thought that you wouldn't keep your side of the deal. You promised to keep my parent out of this but that didn't happen. My father is sick, instead of taking him to the packed clinic, he is in the dungeon"
He chuckled " That is for being disobedient. If you've been a good girl nothing of this would have happened "
" I tried all I could to please you but you didn't see my effort at all," she said
" I don't care. All I wanted was the result, not the effort. When will you understand that "
Ronald stood right before her. He was so close to her. He pushed her hair behind her ears " Look what you've become of yourself "
" Your mate hates you a lot " he taunted, " You think I wouldn't know "
" You caused this. I was trying to get the information you wanted "
He laughed " It's now my fault?"
" Please Ronald, I beg of you, let my parent go. They have nothing to do with this. They don't even know what is happening "
" I don't care at all. "
She went to her knees. She is doing this for her old parent. They don't deserve any of this at all. This isn't their fault at all
" Please " she held onto his feet " I am your slave till the day you are satisfied but please you need to let my parent go. They didn't deserve to be here "
He kicked her hands away. She winced in pain but had to bear it. She heart was boiling. She badly wants to hurt him but she needs to keep her cool.
" I will let them go on one condition," he said
She knew this isn't good at all. Whatever condition this was, she is not going to like it at all.
" Which is?" She asked
He smirked instead.
