Contractually Yours, Alpha by Giftemmy

Chapter Forty Seven

“Go back to sleep, Riley,” he says, but the last thing I could do now was sleep.

“Would you punish me for what I did earlier?” That was a stupid question. Of course I would be punished; maybe I would bear some scars like Freya. No, I wouldn’t allow that. But then what will I do to stop it?, fight him?, run?, scream?

I could do nothing.
