Chapter 18
MALIYA
I waited for Claudia to answer my question but instead, she turned to the guards and the maids in the room.
“Give us a moment,” Claudia said, looking between the guards and the maids.
“Madam Rosalie said-”
“Yes, I heard what she said. Be rest assured that she cannot escape because I won’t allow it. I just need to be worried about her alone, Claudia said with an assuring smile but they looked a little hesitant.
“What if we get into trouble for not staying with her? What Madam Rosalie said was to never let her out of sight, one of the maids said fearfully and Claudia gave her a stern look.
“You can stay by the door if that makes you feel any better, Claudia said, dismissing them and they left the room one after the other reluctantly.
Anyone could see the disapproval in their eyes but none of them asked any further questions.
I waited until they were out of sight before I turned my attention back to Claudia.
“What do you mean by this was the first time!” I asked anxiously, Seeing how she had to chase everyone out before she could answer my question, I bet what she was about to say could get her into trouble.
Claudia sighed before pulling me back to the bed. She rested her hands on mine, squeezing it in a comforting way as her eyes refused to meet mine.
What is with this suspense?
“Maliya, nobody has ever been pregnant for the Alpha,” she announced. Despite the way my heart was drumming hard against my ear, I remained quiet and waited for her to continue
“Every two to three months, a new sex toy is-
My eyes widened at the revelation and I immediately cut her off
“Two to three months? I thought he brought in a new slave every six months. That is what everyone says. If it is two to three months, why am I still here?” I furrowed my eyes
“It was true that he claimed to change his sex slave every six months, but the truth is none of them lasted for that long. Some survived for a week, some for three weeks, but they rarely last for a month,” Claudia said, taking me by surprise.
“By the end… Do you mean the Alpha got tired of them and replaced them?” I asked in disbelief.
“They eventually die because they can not bear the pain,” Claudia announced and my jaw dropped
“A–all of them?” I stammered and she nodded in response.
1 shifted uncomfortably in my seat as my body began to tremble Fear gripped down on me and my heart raced with all -sorts of possibilities.
Did they face worse things than I was facing right now? Why didn’t they try to escape? How come none of them thought of killing the Alpha?
As if Claudia could read my mind, she broke the silence.
“The last one that survived for two months tried to kill the Alpha and she was sentenced to death. None ever survived a month before her but none of them is also compared to you,” she said, lifting my chin as tears trickled down my cheeks.
“H–how?”
You broke the record by staying here for more than three months and on top of that, you are pregnant for the Alpha. That was close to impossible,” Claudia cheered as if that was enough to make me happy.
Carrying the Alpha’s child has to be the most torturous part of all Now, my body does not even belong to me because I was just a slave carrying a child I shouldn’t have in the first place.
I refused to believe that it was a coincidence that all the previous sex slaves died. They must have been through hell, it’s impossible that all of them would kill themselves.
yes,
“Is it Alpha Xander who kills the previous sex slaves too?” My voice came out barely as a whisper as I thought about the possibility of having the same fate as the others.
but
“I honestly don’t know. Rumour has it that he kills them once he gets bored. They said he killed them for fun but there was no way I could confirm that. I have never seen the bodies of those ladies to confirm if they actually killed themselves or maybe they were killed. She explained.
I don’t know if she was trying to make me feel better by telling me that, but it only made me feel worse.
He is going to kill me too.
Fear gripped down on me and I began to shake nervously. I need to get out of this place. I need to be able to, or I’d end up like the rest of them.
I can not allow this to happen. I shook my head frantically, thinking about how unfair it was for the girls to die in Alpha Xander’s hands.
I cannot go down like this.
“I know things are already hard as it is, but you need to be on your best behaviour around Alpha Xander. Even if you don’t like your life presently, life is growing inside you and you need to survive to protect your child,‘ she patted my back, trying to console me.
The thought of him killing me as soon as I gave birth to his child made me break down in tears.
I’d rather die before that happens. I can bear being at his mercy even while I was about to take my last breath.
“I am tired of living. Just get me some poison and let me put an end to this miserable life,” I cried.
Claudia pulled me closer and I buried my face in her chest.
“You will be fine. Everything will be fine. You just need to stay strong,” she continued to whisper in my ear as she patted my back.
As I stayed there, crying in her arms, the only thought that consumed my mind was how to run away. I have to leave no matter what. I cannot stay in this hell hole for another week or Im going to lose my sanity.
Even if I were to ensure the whole pain, it can not be to stay here with a man like Alpha Xander.Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
For the past three months that I have been here, I have seen nothing but worse than I’ve ever seen in my entire life.
I thought my life would end when Kang sold me, but that was nothing compared to this nightmare.
