Trapped with the Alpha

After a while, both Sophie and Derrick leave the room, so the two lovers can have a civil conversation.

“Heyy, babe” Audrey said

“I’m sorry, he came over to our house, I did not know that he was invited” he continued.

“It is not your fault really, I understand I know you would not want something bad to happen to me” Stephanie said giving him a reassuring smile.

Both of them looked at each other as if they hadn’t seen each other before. He looked at her with admiration and began striking her hair while trying to remove some hairs that got stuck at the front. He imagined what his life would have been if he had not met her earlier on. They just met and he could not imagine a life without her.

“You know, I was actually surprised to meet him in the living room, Sophie said that she tried introducing Jim to me at the party but I was so drunk that I did not answer her” she said and laughed.

” Actually, how wasted were you that day” he teased

“How did you know him?” Audrey asked, looking at her with all seriousness.

” Well, he was a friend at Boston, we dated for a brief while” she said

“Ooohh I see, you know if you are not ready to share I totally understand but can you at least tell me what went South between the both of you?” Audrey asked further.

She looked at him and the tears she had tried to hide all the time they were together started coming out on torrents, she did not know she would fall hard for Audrey and what’s more have to relieve her darkest part to him. Telling anyone about her Boston story was something she would not come up with in her lifetime. Apart from Mirabel that knew she told no on else including her parents never knew that their daughter got raped while in school.

She cleared her throat in anticipation for what she was about to say but words seemed to fail her as nothing was coming out of her mouth. She tried as hard as possible to tell him about Boston but as much as she tried it felt like something was holding her back. She could not open her mouth to talk and she remained in that position for a while. She continued trying, all the time she was trying Audrey just thought that she was finding it difficult to tell him. He wanted to make her stop if she was not ready to share when he noticed that she was not just able to talk, she was also having difficulties breathing. He ran out to call the rest of his family at this point his father had come back from his trip .

“Call the doctor immediately” he screamed at them

The doctor rushed as soon as he was called to examine her, after he had examined her he spoke to the family about her real state of health.

” She went into shock” he said ” I’m sure she has a very traumatic past which she has buried in her mind for a long time, something or someone has triggered that memory which caused her to go into shock and she had a relapse of that event” he continued.

” Ooh my God, I caused all this, I should not have invited Nathan to this house” Sophie said, pacing up and down the house frantically.

“What do you mean you invited Nathan to my house” Roland shouted at the top of his voice already fuming with anger with his husky voice throwing Sophie off balance.

She hated when Sir Roland was angry he was an Alpha not just any type of Alpha, he was also a former Raven, the worst type of werewolves to have ever existed and faced the earth. She did not want to be at the receiving end of his anger. So she immediately kneeled and apologized to him.

“I’m sorry sir Roland , I did not know what Nathan had done to your family, Derrick just told me now, If I had known, trust me I would not have gone against your family’s rules not to meet with him again” she said in tears while kneeling down.

He faced his boys hoping to get some answers from them.

” Don’t look at me dad, I did not know either ” Audrey said.

” You let Nathan come to my house and you never seemed it fit to arrest him or detain him at least till I get back, what kind of fools are you” he shouted at them

At this point Roland was already boiling with anger as he began punching and throwing things all around the house and growling. When he got to this point nobody could control him, not even his sons could get a grip over him. He was always very uncontrollable when angry.

“Dad, calm down she did not know we didn’t know either ” Derrick said trying to hold his dad so he would not wake Stephanie up.

The doctor who also happened to be a werewolf, he was the one who took care of the pack of werewolves whenever they became hurt, decided to sedate Roland and made him go to sleep before he could wreak more havoc.

He then turned his back to the group and told them to make sure Sophie was gone before he woke up.

” Sophie should not be in his house by the time he is up, your dad is visibly angry and you know very well that when a Raven is angry they would do anything and I mean anything to those who caused their anger ” the doctor said.

” What do we do now?” Derrick asked.

“Make sure, Sophie is out of this house and he doesn’t hear her name flying around, thankfully he did not transform into a wolf right now” the doctor said and prepared his bags for departure

“Thank you so much Sir” Audrey said

He could not but imagine what Derrick was going through at the moment, he had never really been away from Sophie for a long time, he loved Sophie even if he would not show it at certain points.

” And as for Stephanie, do not bring up the topic again for all we know merely bringing up the topic could trigger a memory, she would heal slowly and open up to you Audrey” the doctor said, taking Audrey away from his line of thoughts.

Audrey simply nodded his head in affirmation that he had heard everything the doctor said. He really wanted to give Nathan a benefit of the doubt, what happened today confirmed his suspicions but he wanted to hear it from his mouth that he actually raped Stephanie.

Derrick on the other hand was in really bad shape, he did not know whether to hug his brother or leave him alone, Sophie was literally his world and staying without her was going to be a huge problem, for him it’s either his father calmed down or learnt to live with Sophie till he forgave her.

They all went upstairs to find Stephanie still sleeping so they left to continue sleeping.

“Mi’ja, can I come in” Nanny Maria said

” Yes Nanny,” Audrey said.

“I know how sad you must be feeling now, but you just have to be strong for Stephanie, but she needs you right now more than ever you have to be strong for her” Nanny said.

” I don’t just get it, Nanny, why does it have to be Nathan , I will not feel this angry if I don’t know the person that did this to her” Audrey said.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

” I understand Mi’ja , but you just have to be strong , I don’t like how your father reacted to the issue, he never bothered to ask about Stephanie or anything his main focus was on Nathan” Nanny Maria said ” have you eaten, I want to make you and your brother’s favorite meal” she said
