The Alpha’s Slave

MADISON’S POV:

My heart skipped a beat immediately I heard what Lady Delia said. The Master is really going to kill anyone who gets pregnant after he had sex with the person? Isn’t he the cruelest man in the whole universe?

“But… Why… Why would he do… Do something like that?” I spluttered though I was really very scared.

“That’s something I can’t tell. But I assure you that you wouldn’t want to hear about it, just bear in mind that you shouldn’t ever conceive for the master. Each time you have intercourse with him, make sure you ask me for the contraceptive herb” Lady Delia patted my shoulder.

What she said frightened me, so I quickly picked up the cup containing the herb, and drank it all. It was so bitter, but I rather drink the bitter herb than have my hair chopped off.

“Thank you, Lady Delia” I forced a smile trying to hide my anxiety and fear. She handed another herb to help me reduce the pains I was feeling in between my thighs. I drank the herbs and thanked her while she smiled at me with a slight nod.

“You have to get a rest my dear, you’ll be starting to work in the field like the other slaves by tomorrow. You have to work hard if you don’t want to lose your precious life” Lady Delia exhaled deeply before walking out of the room with the herbs.

I kept on staring at the ceiling, and tears filled my eyes. Is this really how I’m going to end up? I know that this is just the beginning of my suffering, and I pray I’ll be able to withstand it all. Even if I don’t want to leave anymore, I still know that I have to live if not for anyone else, but for my mother’s son Jeffrey. I was still feeling the pains in between my thighs, but it wasn’t as excruciating as it was. I pray that I survive all of this.

Furthermore, I continued crying until I fell asleep.

STONE’S POV:

I lighted the stick of cigarette in between my lips with a lighter, and smokes emanated my nostrils and mouth. Smoke filled the dark room that I was in, but I’m already used to staying in a dark smoky room.

I turned on the light, and sighted the blood stain on the ground then on my bedspread. With my eyes furrowed, I thought of the new slave, and shook my head in amazement.

“So she was a virgin?” I wondered, but who cares if she was or not. I have never cared if anyone was a virgin or not, I can’t believe I was even thinking of that slave. Not only that, but I was still lost in thoughts when I heard a faint knock on the door.

“Come in” I said with a croaky voice that can barely be heard outside. The door creaked open, and Lady Delia walked in with new bedspread.

“How did you know?” I turned my face away backing her emotionlessly.

“I saw her, I knew she must have stained your bedspread Master Stone. That is why I came with a bedspread” She bowed slightly, and I gulped. I didn’t say another word to her, and she took off the stained bedspread, replaced it with the new bedspread then wiped the floor.

“Have you shown her to the new room?” I couldn’t believe that I even said those words. When did I f****** start caring about things like that?

“Yes Master Stone. I already took her to the room, and I gave her the contraceptive herb” She replied almost immediately.

“I never said I wanted to hear details about her. I don’t care if she took the herbs or not, what matters to me is my happiness not anyone else’s. Once she conceives, I’ll have her roasted to death” I said those words with no single emotions.

“I made that clear to her Master Stone, and I also made her understand that she would start working at the field by tomorrow” Lady Delia snapped.

“Good! How is Zara?” My voice softened immediately I spoke of Zara. Lady Delia’s face also softened.

She bowed her head, and sighed deeply before speaking up.

“She’s been the worst Master Stone. I’ve tried everything to make her feel better but all to no avail” Lady Delia replied, and I gritted my teeth badly, such that Lady Delia could hear the gritting of teeth.

“I want you to call the best nurses and doctors all over the world. Money will never be a promise to me, all I want is to have my once happy Zara back. I want everything to go back to the way it used to be” I roared on fury, and Lady Delia flinched in fear and panic.

“Please calm down Stone, There’s nothing to be worried about. I’ve invited Doctor Khalifa, he promised to be here first thing tomorrow morning for Zara’s check-up” Lady Delia gulped nervously.

“All I want to hear is that Zara is back to herself not that she’ll be having a check-up. For the past five years, she had always been checked up on, but there is absolutely nothing to show for it” I fumed with anger, and paced around the room burning up with anger.

“I promise you master, this time around she’ll be fine” Lady Delia snapped before walking out of the room.

I roared in anger, and started hitting my fist against the wall for some time. My fist was already bruised, and blood gushed out of the wound. I groaned in pains and anguish. I wasn’t in pains because I hit my fist against the wall.

Furthermore, I was in so much pains because whenever I thought of Zara, I blame myself for everything. She’s one of the reasons why I don’t want to give up. Blood continued gushing out of my fist, and I continued hitting my fist against the wall despite the pains I was feeling…..
