Chapter 22

Alex’s POV

the moment I wake up I find myself in the arms of Blaise in a bed laying down. 

he looks absolutely gorgeous. the light from the moon radiates on him making his skin glow. I look at his hair and smile when I see that his hair is black as always. it's incredible how dark it is.

I slowly get up and I look at him again. a part of me wants to lay back down with him so that I can wake him up and kiss him, but another part of me knows that there's something that I must do.

I sigh as I run a hand through my hair and I walk over to the door.

I walk and walk and walk until I am literally lost. this castle is so big that all the halls look practically repetitive. they have beautiful designs on the walls but they all look similar that in the end it's all the same.

there are pictures hanging everywhere of the same people. my mother and her family. I sigh as I finally find a half opened door with light. 

my muscles begin to relax as I find myself becoming relieved at the thought that I'm not exactly lost anymore. if there is light then there has to be people near.

I walk over to the door and I'm about to open the door when I hear someone throw something on the floor. 

it sounded like a bucket of water.

"haven't I told you to make sure everything is clean!" an old woman screams loudly.

'it feels like I've experienced something like this before'

"I'm sorry I didn't know that I had to do that as well... it was usually Natalie's job." a small voice says "are you stupid! do you want to become like those rogue girls and become one of Dickinsons toys! because if you can't clean that's what you will be!"

I hear the small voice cry and say "please don't! I'm still a virgin and I don't want to, he is so..."

"no! that's what you will be from now on! come one girl ill be taking you to him!"

I sigh 'how is it that these two can't sense me behind the door?'

I quickly open the door and I'm greeted with the sight of an old lady wearing a red professional suit pulling a girl by the arm. the old lady's skirt is dangerously high and her shirt is practically open to the point that her boobs are popping out. 

the girl is wearing a simple grey ripped dress that covers almost nothing. she has tears in her eyes and she has bruises all over her body.

they both look at me in pure shock as I lean on the wall next to the door. "soo... anyone wanna tell me about this dick-inson guy" I say popping out the dick part on purpose.

the girl being pulled quickly gets away from the old lady's grasp and runs towards me and kneels and she puts her hands on my knees. "please! help me! take me with you! I can clean! I can cook! just please don't let her take me to him!"

I look at the girl in pure shock as she pulls me knees. "umm... calm down."

"of course she won't take you!" the old lady says reaching out for the girl.

"sorry I can't take you" I say looking at the girl.

"see! I told you!" the old lady screams with a grin on her face.

I look at the old woman "I can't take you" then I look down at the girl "because I live here."

they both look at me in shock.

"what are you saying?" the old lady says as she laughs. "someone like you living here? please!"

I look away at the wall besides me trying to ignore her insult. 'fucking bitch'

"well yeah apparently this comes with a castle." I say showing them my arm as they both look at me in shock.

I look at the floor and I see a bucket on the ground with a big puddle of water. "aren't you gonna clean that?" I ask pointing at the puddle.

the girl on the ground quickly moves towards the puddle and with a piece of cloth she begins to clean it.

I become irritated as I look at her try to clean it with one piece of wet cloth. what angers me the most is the smirk on the old lady’s face. I’m not stupid enough to believe a cleaner would have done this mess. "not you!" I yell grabbing the girls hand and pulling her up as I look at her crying. 

"I meant you" I point at the old lady and her grin falls immediately "you make a mess, you clean it. shes My servant not yours!" I pull the girl as I begin to walk towards a door. "also make sure this Dick guy gets nowhere near the rogues, by that I mean the girls or his girls or whatever you call them. tell him they are confiscated until I talk to him in person."

once we are out of that room I look at the girl that I pulled out and I look at her torn up dress. "are there any rooms here with clothes?"

the girl looks at me and then at some stairs "there's the que- the old queens closet."

the girl led me to a room besides the room where I came out from and she opens it up. I was expecting a room with a fancy bed and all, but all I get is a stupid walk in closet.

the room is filled with beautiful clothes and jewelry. the girl looks down at the floor the whole time as I begin to look inside of the closet. I begin to look at the many dresses and shirts and jeans and skirts and I have to practically stop myself from vomiting. most of this woman's clothes are pink.

after so much looking I finally find a decent shirt with a pair of jeans. I walk over to the underwear and I stop. 'she doesn't look like she's wearing any undergarments but these are used by that disgusting woman.' 

I begin to debate on whether I should just wait until I send someone to buy her some undergarment but it all comes down to how wrong that is.

in the end I grab a pair of underwear and a bra and give it to the girl "change into this."

she looks up at me surprised. I give her the clothes and I walk out of the closet and close the door.

after a while she comes out of the room with a small blush in her cheeks and she looks up at me. I observe her from top to bottom and I smile in satisfaction.

"alright now for my payment for the clothes I want you to take me to a little boys room. his name is geovani." she looks up at me as if she has realized something "so you do know him"

she nods "I met him and Mr. Patrick a while ago. I took them to their rooms." I nod "could you take me to Patrick's room?"

"yes" she says leading me away.

when we finally arrive at Patrick's door I knock as soft as I can to see a shirtless blond guy open the door. He’s smirks as he leans against the door. "hey sweetheart, you got bored of your man and came to be satisfied by me?"

I ignore his stupid joke and I look at the girl who is now looking at me in some distaste. 'and that is how misunderstandings are created'

"take us to the prisons where the female rogues are held." I say to the girl.

I hear Patrick gasp as he quickly runs inside of the room to get his shirt and shoes. the girl looks at me and she begins to lead us when Patrick walks besides me clearing his throat. "Alex you know I was kidding right?"

I don't answer making him even more nervous. "I'm sorry ok" he says as I continue to ignore him.

we finally make it to what seems like the entrance to a basement. it's guarded by two guards one on each side of the door. "this is how far we can go" the girl looks at me and at Patrick.

"what's your name?" I finally ask "Amber" she answers with a shy smile "thanks Amber, later come by my room. I want you to introduce me to this Dick guy." I say as she leaves with a smile and a nod.

I walk over to the guards with Patrick behind me. "I want to go inside"

the guards look at me as if I were crazy and I just show them my arm and the open the door with a bow.

I walk inside and the lights turn on. to my surprise this place is in really bad conditions. the beds are dirty and it smells disgusting. it smells of smoke, eggs, and blood. "tell me when you see her." I say to Patrick as he nods observing every cell.

meanwhile I'm intrigued by a metal door with a window on the top. I find a switch and I flip it on. it turns on the lights inside of the room and I see a girl chained up and laying down on the ground. there is no bed only a cold floor and chains. 

"I can't find her, Alex my sister is not-" Patrick says as he looks at the window. "Alex that's her!" he tries to open the door but it won't open its locked. Patrick begins to panic as I call out for a guard waking everyone up who is in the cells. 

"yes" a guard comes running inside "open this cell" I say as I point at it.

"ughh... that's lord Dickinsons special cell. we can't touch that one." he says looking at the ground.

"not even if the queen commands you to?" I say gaining all of the attention from all of the prisoners.

"I ugh.." he looks at the ground nervously.

"fine" I walk over to the door and try to kick it down but it's hopeless. 'damn it'

"Alex use your right hand" Patrick looks at me with faith.

"what? if my foot can't do it what makes you think my hand can?"

"that day your hands mark glowed. you burned me with fire. maybe you can blast it open"

I look at him as if he were crazy but I realize that he has a point. "but I don't know how I did that."

"just concentrate, please"

I turn towards the door and look at the girl laying down on the ground. "I'm gonna look so stupid"

I put my hand on the door and I close my eyes. I try my hardest to do something but nothing happens. I become frustrated because I can't do anything and I have people staring at me which makes me angry.

I know I look stupid. I don't need people whispering about it. I pull away my hand and I turn to look at Patrick. "nothing is happening see!" he steps back as he looks at my eyes turn red. "what the hell do you want me to do huh? punch it!" I point at the door mad. "here ill punch it if it make you happy!" at that moment everything happens so fast.

I punch the door and I'm left panting as I'm looking at the floor. I suddenly hear nothing. everyone is staring at me speechless as I look at my right hand glowing. 

I slowly turn to look at the door and it's gone. it's now inside of the room with smoke coming out of it. the girl that is chained up is now in the corner of the room looking at me terrified. "ugh... I have no idea how I did that."

Patrick immediately snaps out of his trance and runs inside.

"Alice!"

"pat?" the girl begins to cry as she hugs him "oh my god! you came! I was so scared pat! this man he wanted to rape me- I - I didn't let him so he locked me up."

when I hear that I look at the guard my eyes go back to their red color and I feel a burning sensation on my right arm.

"A-Alex your hand" Patrick says as he looks at me right hand.

I turn to look at it and I'm holding a flame. I'm literally holding a flame of fire on my right hand. 'the hell?'

I get rid of the flame and then I make it appear again. "looks like you got the hand of it" Patrick looks at me as I play with the fire in my hand.

"sorry" I say as I get rid of it.

"do you think you could help get these chains of my sister with that heat of your?"

I look at him and smirk "please, I don't need fire to get rid of some old chains." I walk over to him and I take of the girls chains off with my alpha strength. "I'm an Alpha remember?"

he rolls his eyes and he carries his sister out in bridal style. I follow behind him as the guard looks at him and then at me in pure shock. "hey" I stand in front of the guard "tell this dick guy to meet me in my office now, also make sure he gets nowhere near these girls."

the guard look at me and then at the broken down door "but-"

I cut him off when I begin to choke him as I slowly lift him up against the cells doors. "make sure he doesn't touch any of the rogues whether they are male or female. I will not allow anyone to mistreat my people do you understand? if I find out he came here I will find you and I will make you my prisoner do I have myself clear?"

I let him go as he begins to cough loudly "make sure he comes to my office right away. ill be waiting for him"
