Rejecting the Alpha Twins

Chapter 38

Chapter 38

Regan POV

It’s dark. The torches are lit, lighting the dark dungeon as I slowly make my way down, assisted by Xavier, while Xander waits patiently down by the cell. Alpha Jackson is behind me, Insouth flat, a look of anxiety all over his face. I feel sorry for him. He’s gone through so much, the least of all which is the knowledge that Luna Jennifer slept with another man and betrayed him all those years ago. It’s a miracle he hasn’t broken down or lost control of himself or his wolf. I admire that because it shows just how much inner strength he possesses. No doubt Xavier and Xander take, after him in that respect.

The time has come. I have spent sleepless nights, tossing, turning, trying to come up with the perfect solution, only to realize that there isn’t one. I can’t try and please everybody, It will not work and part of me hurts at that realization, as Xavier begins to lead me to the first cell, where my father is waiting, hanging on the wall by silver restraints, his eyes murderous as he looks upon me. I try not to flinch as I rake my gaze over him, feeling the inner turmoil that often accompanies me whenever I get even remotely close to him. I could already feel myself starting to tense, in preparation for this confrontation, my body was used to the beatings he would foist on me for every little transgression. Even though he can’t touch me. J can’t help my body reacting automatically to his presence.

“You little bitch” he spits, pulling on the cuffs and wincing as the silver burns him “Release me from this cell so that I might get my revenge” he roars.

His anger towards Luna Jennifer and what she did, to him, and to us, is evident by the fury on his face and his blatant attempts to get free. He’s been stewing for days.

“Beta Johnathon, you have been stripped of your title, and I must ask you to remain silent as your daughter Regan gives us her ruling in regard to your punishment” Alpha Jackson’s tone is sharp as he reprimands my father.

My father gives an incredulous laugh while I stiffen, and the Alpha twins shoot him looks filled with daggers. “You’re going to let this useless bitch choose how to punish me?” he snorts. “Cowards, the lot of you” he shouts giving a little girl such power, I don’t believe it.”

I study him. For so long, I have fearell him. Feared his hand, the pain that always accompanies it as it connects with my bare flesh. He looks tired now. Weary. There are cuts on his skin from struggling with the restraints. He is pale and withdrawn. I study him even more closely. The Alpha twins and their father are silent, watching me. I give a small smile, feeling sad for some inexplicable reason.

“For the repeated physical abuse that I have suffered at your hands I sentence you to be lashed no less than thirty times.” I said quietly as his eyes widened in alarm and the Alpha twins nodded, a look of satisfaction on their faces. “I think it’s time you found out just how painful a whipping across your back can feel Father” I concluded, feeling a little morose.

As punishments went, it was certainly justified, but it did little to make me feel better.

“Bitch” he roared “No good, little whore. You think that I’m afraid of a little whipping?” he snarled “That’s nothing. I’ll kill you for this” he hissed.
