The Lycan Kingpin's Captive: A Baby For The Beast

It’s been a week since they brought me into the SilverCrest Pack, and a week since I’ve seen another person besides Josef, my supposed bodyguard.

They’ve moved me to another bedroom; there are no bars on the windows and my door does not get locked, but I am a prisoner nonetheless.

I’ve healed completely, though, and according to Josef, the pack doctor will be coming to see me from tomorrow to start with the insemination process.

The last time I saw her, she asked me about my heat cycles and when they usually occur. I’ll be coming into my heat in three days’ time, but this time things will be different for me.

Mikhail had me on medication to suppress my heat, and so did my father. I’ve never truly experienced it to its fullest before… To say I’m scared is putting it lightly.

“You’re deep in thought today,” Josef says, snapping me out of my thoughts.

I look toward him and offer him a light smile. He’s been kind to me, nothing like the warriors I’m used to, so it’s made the transition a bit easier.

“Just thinking about tomorrow,” I answer truthfully. “I am… a bit nervous about everything.”

He nods. “You’re to bear the Alpha’s child. It cannot be easy for you. So perhaps don’t think about everything right now.”

Breathing out a sigh, I hug my body closer and shoot him a smile. “You’re right, there’s no reason to worry so much since it all will be taken care of by the Alpha, anyway.” I don’t know why I’m saying this since I have everything to be worried about.

When he finds out who I really am and what I know…

I shake my head; I cannot live with what-ifs right now. This is my path to freedom, to safety, and to a life where I’ll be free of abusive Alphas and their hold on me. I know I sound selfish, but I have never been selfish in my life.

I have to be stronger.
