Crazy Alpha
I eat the salmon and asparagus and guzzle down the coffee goddess I needed that so much. With renewed strength and my plan I feel better about this, I hope to get out and run in to my Alphaâs arms soon, but this isnât the fairy tale world so although I will remain positive, I wonât lie to myself. I need to remember that things donât always go to plan. I may fool Argon and his muscle head goons but that woman has it in for me iâm sure, she will be harder to convince.
I thought Argon might have re-visited me last night but I fell asleep early hours with no sign of him, maybe my act wasnât as effective as I had thought.
I sit back on the bed and watch a rom com, thereâs not exactly a lot more I can be doing stuck in this room and if Argon doesnât come back to see me soon my plan is right out of the window, what do I do then? Sit pretty and wait for someone to save me, not going to happen, Iâm not playing Rapunzel in this fairy tale turned nightmare.
I have been lost in thought and talks with Ersa trying and failing to think up a plan B all the way through the film, Iâve heard very few noises from outside the door so Iâm not in a main corridor, I wonder if Iâm at a packhouse, the room is nice so Iâm not in a dungeon underground I know that also because I can see the natural light when they open the bedroom door.
The now familiar scrapes of the locks opening catch my attention, I can smell food so someone has come to bring me some breakfast, I stay sat on the bed waiting when Mrs. Arse hole comes strolling in, placing a new tray down and takes the other one.
âDonât even think about making a move, there are three guards outside the door, itâs bad enough Iâm running round after a little wh*re like you, I donât care what you say, you must have given him some sort of lead for him to be this obsessed with you. Alpha will soon see you are worthless and let me kill you.â She snarls.
Ersa is growling in the back of my mind, I glare at the mutt â What makes you think you can take me? I am a Luna mated to not one but two powerful Alphaâs, you would be stupid to try, but id be happy to put you in your place Omega.â I smirk as my words taunt her. Her face twists with rage but she doesnât react, just turns on her heel and walks out barking orders to the guards as she goes. One of the guards I recognised from yesterday stands leaning on the door frame while the others walk away after the omega, the guy is so huge he practically fills it.
âHey Luna, now Iâm not as stupid as I look but if you was serious about being lonely Iâm about to stand outside this door unmoving for two hours unless you want some company? And I donât mean suggestive company, I mean actually I get to sit down and you get to chat?â He says with a smile, I donât think this one is dumb enough for my plan, hes smart enough to want to sit comfortably for two hours instead of standing. Smart id say, but I can still try and get a little information from him.
âSure, I wonât try anything stupid come on in, I wouldnât mind the company.â I say sweetly.
âDonât make any stupid moves Luna please, Iâd like an easy day while the crazy Alpha is out.â He has a dopey lopsided grin on his handsome face, Iâm sure outside of working he isnât short of company. His laid back appearance gives off a friendly but strong vibe like if we were still in high school he would be the douchebag jock. I giggle to myself at my thoughts as douche jock gives me a funny look.
âSo what are we watching?â He says as he perches on the end of the bed back to me but head swivels round to ask me the question.
I tell him to put anything on. We small talk for a little while while he sets a movie up. I find out his name is Toby and he is doing this guarding job to earn more, apparently all jobs under Argon are paid well but this one is ridiculous amounts though he didnât say how much. Toby has a pup on the way with his fated mate Adaline who he found a year ago.
âToby, why are you talking to me? Arenât you worried about me holding things against you or attacking you while you are in here? Or do you doubt how strong I am?â I ask truly curious as to why he would trust me not to hold his family against him once Iâm free.
âWith all due respect Cierra, if I may call you by your name?â He pauses and watches me for a minute, I nod my reply and wait for him to go on.
âThe Alpha has always been a crazy guy but his plans always went well however ruthless he was so we always followed him no questions asked so one day when he returned from meeting you the first time and told us his tale of events, that twins had turned you against your will and made you Luna or something or other and you were in fact our future Luna, we all wanted to rescue you. As it became more and more apparent that he had just gone nuts, as word started to spread that you were in fact the twins fated and Alpha Argon was trying to claim you against your will, people started to break the pack bond and leave to find a... stable letâs say... Alpha to follow under, when he offered this job with the price tag a few of us stayed, whilst he had gone crazy and upped and left we followed purely for the money which is why he needed rogues to fight for him because the warriors talked him out of using and loosing his own men in battle for you. So, I have every faith that your mates will come for you and Argon will face punishment so I have no reason to be cruel to you and loose my own life in the process when the twin Alphaâs find you.â I stare at Toby in shock at all he just revealed, Argon really has gone crazy, he really thinks I will stand by him as his Luna and forget about the twins. His pack members are leaving him and he still wants to pursue me as Luna. I wonder if he really believes the story he told his pack.
Toby turns around to watch the TV as I let his words sink in.
Tell him to help us. Ersa says in my head.
Heâs not going to; he just told us heâs making money for his mate and pup. I whisper in my head
What you whispering for dumb dumb? He canât hear you. She laughs out loud. I can mentally see her rolling on her back laughing, daft dog!
âSo Toby, taking all of that into account why donât you just help me escape?â I ask sure to keep my voice low
He turns and gives me a look that says âare you stupid?â
âDidnât you listen to a word I said Cierra? I need this job and the payout for my pup and Iâd like to be alive when he or she comes along.â Iâve clearly agitated this meat head with my question but maybe he can be swayed. I go to speak but he puts his hand up as though to silence me. I swallow my words and stare at whatever action movie he has put on the TV that he seems engrossed in.
I sit silently for a minute mulling over how to get him on my side, itâs clear he knows his Alpha has lost his way and is fully expecting me to get out of here anyway, I just need a way to sway him.
