Chapter 76:
The loud bang of his clenched fist on the table warned me of my disobedience, but I remained rooted to the spot, adamant, with my eyes tightly shut and my mouth slightly open, muttering a silent prayer. His furious gaze conveyed hidden messages, but I chose to remain blind, refusing to let my eyes meet his.
How cruel he was to demand my body on the very day I was brought in. He didn’t even allow me to pass the night to rest my tired bones and regain strength.
He was cloaked in selfishness.
All he cared about was satisfying his high libido.
To think he had just finished having sex with his mistress. Wasn’t that enough for the day?
Must he have a taste of me?
What else did he want from an inexperienced, naive girl who knew nothing about sex?
My body trembled as though I had been thrown a bag of ice, and fear engulfed me.
I didn’t know where the courage to push him came from, but I knew I was in for the consequences.
I didn’t care what they would be; I just didn’t want his filthy hands on me. Not now, not ever.
The thought that all he wanted from me was my body gave me crazy “icks.”
I don’t think I would ever recover if he laid with me. I don’t think I would ever forgive him if he violated me without my consent.
I didn’t mind being reduced to the level of a slave. I would do anything to preserve my womanhood.
“Aurora!” he yelled, impatience and anger flooding from him like a cloud of dark smoke, sending shivers down my spine as I was jolted awake by his scream.

Panic clawed at my chest as his burning gaze locked onto mine.
His eyes were darkened with lust, and his rich baritone voice was laced with fury.
I knew I was in trouble, but I didn’t care.
Worry filled me as Alex’s words echoed in my mind.
It was my first duty, and I had already messed up badly. I didn’t think I would survive long in this castle if I continued with my disobedience.
Despite trying to follow Ric and Alex’s instructions, I was torn between choosing death or being violated by the cruelest Alpha King.
Death.
It was the only thing that rang in my head, a constant reminder of the horrible fate that awaited me if I disobeyed the king.
“On the table!” he ordered, snapping me out of my thoughts and leaving me fear-stricken as I scurried and positioned myself the way he had instructed earlier.
Who was I to disobey the most callous Alpha King?
“Part those legs!” he bellowed calmly yet dangerously, emphasizing every word.
His voice sounded like the voices of many mighty men… authoritative, mysterious, deafening… like a volcano ready to erupt.
My eyes traveled up to the moon that hung in the sky, silently pleading with it to send me a savior.
