No Escape From My Ruthless Alpha

Chapter 21: Virgin vs a Sex God

Penelope POV

For three days I felt... miserable. He had shoved me out of his apartment and then not met me even once. It's not that he ignored me, he didn't even come downstairs when I was around or maybe I didn't see him. There were unspoken words between us, but I knew that he understood my silent proposition. I had wished he had asked me what I would do with him, but... he had rejected me and that stung. I don't know why. What was happening to me? I felt like a corpse, dragging myself through the day and night

At the same time, I was given hell by Megan in the kitchen. Yesterday when I was eating food all alone, and no one was there, she came to me and said, "If you don't leave this pack soon, I am going to kill you. So leave before Freya comes back, else I will chop you with a butcher knife!" She glared at me

I returned the favor by glaring back at her and said, "What has Freya got to do with me, Megan? I am just another inconspicuous worker in the kitchen. You don't go around saying that to everyone but me." I crossed my arms across my chest. "Am I so important against Freya that you have to threaten me to kill me every time? Tell me. I am curious."

Megan glowered at me as her breath became ragged. She pressed the knife in her hand

against my neck as I leaned back. A shudder passed through me. "Don't you push my limits bitch!" she spat. "This is my last warning to you

Leave this pack, else I will kill you and there would be no one to save you. You are nothing and you will be nothing!"

I gulped my saliva in horror as her knife dug into my flesh. I could feel the warm blood trickling down my neck

"You have three days to leave," she snarled

"What if Alpha Drexel comes to know about it?" I asked in a hoarse voice

"That is none of your concern. He doesn't like humans. They are so beneath him!" She

removed her knife from my neck and wiped it on her apron

Terrified, I said, "You are saying as if he is a God."

She chuckled eerily. "He is. For all of us!"

I was frightened by Megan. A lot. She would look at me each day like a hawk. I was so scared by the end of the third day that I was ready to leave. I had asked Kimberley if she could help me and she had agreed. She said that she would take a day's leave from her patrolling duty and then drop me to my town, but she said that she would actually be risking her life in doing so. If Alpha Drexel came to know, he would kill her for defying his orders and that he had his eyes

on her. Boris had left for his duty else I would have asked for his help. I was in a dilemma whether to take her assistance or not. I went against it. She was the only friend I had who would come and spend whatever little time she had with me. I couldn't jeopardize her life

Tonight was the third night and Megan had threatened me before leaving the kitchen. "Don't

come back tomorrow!"

I had already packed my bag and Kimberley had given me a map along with several knives to defend myself in the jungles against beasts. I had packed some food and chocolates in the bag. She would drop me on her motorbike till the end of the Moonstone territory and from there I would take off

When I returned from the kitchen, Beta Leo met me. He smiled at me sadly and said in a mystic way, "I know things are hard for you, Penelope

But I am sure that when Freya comes, it will be easier for you. Her arrival is going to solve many problems."

I chuckled in a humorless way. "I hope so," I breathed and left. When I reached the attic, I re- checked my bag and then lay on the mattress. I was waiting for the lights of the packhouse to go off because I planned on escaping tonight. Tears ran down my eyes as my heart constricted with some unknown emotion

I didn't know for how long I lay down over there, but I jerked awake by a sound. Cedar smell surrounded me, overwhelming my sensations. I fumbled to switch on the lamp on my side and there I found slanted winter gray

eyes staring at me in the darkness of the night

Like that of a wolf. My breath lodged in my throat and my eyes widened. Dread skittered down my spine. He had thrown me out of his

apartment. So why was he here now?"

"You are going to take care of me, pet." he said as he stared into my eyes

I dragged my eyes to his swollen erection and gasped. Slowly, I looked up at him, sure that my surprise was apparent in my eyes

"Happy Birthday," he said. And that was my first wish of the day

"Thank you," I replied. I dragged my teeth over my bottom lip as my heartbeat raced. Was he

accepting me? Was I being given a chance to seduce him? My brain started working as if thousands of electric bolts jolted across it. I was three days short of a month, but I was going to make every day count

He looked at my packed bag on the side and then extended his hand to me. Without hesitation, I held him and he pulled me up

When I was standing in front of him, he swiped my hair to one side of my shoulder and stared at my neck. Did his eyes flicker blue? "So what's your plan?" he asked with a sneer. "Would you try to make me forget Freya? Or would you try to make me like you more than I like her?"

So he did understand my unspoken words. That was enough. I raised my eyebrows as I pursed my lips to stop my smile. "Maybe both," I

replied with my chin up, accepting the challenge

"Then you better show me how desperate you are." He turned to leave with my hand in his

grasp

"Wait," I said. I pulled my hand away and picked up my bag. When I turned to him, I said, "IT wanted to negotiate my deal with you." When he narrowed his eyes, I thought I had spoken too early

"What deal?" he growled

"Tf by the time Freya returns, you do not like me, you have to consider my debt paid and free me

After all, I would have serviced you."

I was hoping for a fight, but he raised an eyebrow. "Okay," he scoffed

I realized that I had held my breath when I sucked in the sharp air and my shoulders relaxed after his 'okay'. He held my hand again and took me downstairs to his apartment. He punched in the code and pulled me all the way to his bedroom

"Lam going to take a bath. When I come back, I want to see you wearing that red lingerie," he pointed at the one lying on his bed. It still had its tags on. "And go down on your knees." Did he buy it for me?

When Drexel left, I let out a rough exhale. I wasn't ready for all this crudeness. I had never

ever done anything to a man before. Most other girls in my class had boyfriends and had sex with them multiple times. And here I was a virgin, to seduce a man and even make him forget his lover. He was like a sex god walking on two legs. My brain short-circuited. What was I supposed to do that would keep him excited and guessing all the time?
