Chained To The Alpha King
Chapter 21

Damon almost dragged me into our room as I struggled. I feel so guilty for Anna. I didn't know that Damon said something like that to her and yet she broke it for me! And I can't let Damon do anything bad to her!

"Let her go Damon and let me go!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, but he acts like he was deft. He's so cruel and cold. And I can't believe that he forbids me to even go out of the palace for a little while. What bullshit is that? I'm not an animal that comes out whenever it has to! He treats me like a prisoner! I can't believe it!

"Didn't I tell you that every rule you break there's a consequence?" he said darkly. I felt a mixture of anger and hatred for him, but I couldn't understand the pain I felt inside my chest.

"And what consequence? You'll punish Anna?!" I said angrily. He locked the door of his room and almost threw me on the bed. I looked at him with disgust.

"Anna is innocent! I ask her to take me out!" I said trying to change his mind. But he was so cold. He's staring at me like a block of ice.

"From now on, you'll never leave this room-"

"Then, just lock me up in your chains! That'll be better than Anna getting punishment! Do what you want to do with me! Starve me to death I don't care just let her out!" I am so frustrated. I want to hurt him but I'm sure I'll be the only one who gets hurt. I can't take it all anymore. It makes me...want to run away again.

"You should've thought of that before asking her to take you out, Athena," he said coldly while loosening the tie he was wearing. I shook my head. Couldn't believe what he was saying. How can he be so cruel and mean?

Is he really like this? Or is he still angry because of me interfering with the death anniversary of his brother and his first love? Is it really like that? Are my feelings really worthless to him? The night when something happened to us, I thought everything would change but I was wrong. I almost forgot he has someone he loves.

"How can you do this to me?" I couldn't stop sobbing in front of him. I think this is the first time in my entire life that I will cry in front of someone. This was the first time I showed my weakness. My weakness is my tears. Once I cry...it means...I am hurting...deeply. I saw him staring at me. I know it was embarrassing because it's never my thing. I never used to cry in front of someone. But I am hurting right now. I can't stop it from falling.

"W-What am I? A pet you want to keep inside your cage? You'll decide whenever you want me to go out? If you forgot Damon...I am a human...I am also hurting..." I wiped the tears on my cheeks, but my tears won't stop me from falling. I avoided looking at him because it only hurts me more every time, I see his eyes that don't care about me.

"If you don't want me to stick my nose into your business then I will. If you don't want me to go out, then I fucking will! Just...let Anna go!" I almost pleaded. I couldn't stop another sob that escaped my lips.

I never thought we would get to this point. I never thought that a day would come when I would beg for a man. I feel so hopeless, tired, and hurt. But why is that? I still can't be mad at him.

I think I'm going crazy to feel all these emotions. I feel like I'm going crazy. I feel like I can enter a mental hospital in this case.

"I-I...just wanna go out because....I want to breathe and think properly because these past few days...I feel like I cannot breathe properly anymore..." I added while crying hard in front of him. Damn these tears! Why can't they stop?

But what I didn't expect was his big steps toward me and his quick pull to me for a warm hug. I was stunned by what he did. I felt all my tears fall away from what he did.

I can feel the warmth of his chest on my face. My leg trembled and I felt very weak. What is he...doing to me?

He put his hand on the back of my head and pulled me inside his chest. I stopped crying and I didn't think that the pain I was feeling would suddenly go away and that was just because of a...hug!

"Damn...I'm sorry..." he whispered softly against my ear. Some paragraphs are incomplete if you are not reading this novel on Narugi.com. Visit Narugi.com to read the complete chapters for free. My lips parted as my heart pounded so fast. I swallowed hard as I felt his lips kiss the top of my head. What the hell is happening? Wasn't he very angry earlier? What's happening now?

He hugged me tightly. I couldn't return the hug because of the shock and speed of the events.

"I...was just worried about you," he whispered again. It sent shivers down my spine. Something also tingled in my chest at what he said. Is he just worried? Did I hear right?

"I am afraid...you'll run away again," now he said that while staring into my eyes. I can't read his eyes, but one thing is for sure...he's staring at me softly, gently, and...carefully. Am I hallucinating or something? Did I suddenly pass out earlier while I was crying and now, I'm just dreaming?

I swallowed hard as my knees trembled. "I won't run away...again," I said sweetly, and I don't know why with so many promises I made to other people...I feel like this is the truest.

He stared at me long and I just closed my eyes when he kissed me passionately on my lips.
