The Alpha’s Slaved Stripper

KAYLA'S POV

I basked in the melody of nature as I snaked my way through the arched walkway. Anyone who saw me would feel that I was a grown-up still acting immaturely. Oh yes! One could call me baby— Diego's baby.

My name is Kayla, an orphan princess. I lost my birth mother before my very eyes. Those last words of hers never left my ears, not even for a split second.

That very moment marked the beginning of a page I was not ready for. My father too passed on already, leaving me in the cold hands of my stepmom, Kate, and my stepsister, Adire.

Those two must have sworn an oath to make sure they snuff life out of me. But here I am, despite every misery I have had to step on, smiling and having my moment. The moon goddess has the praise.

Mating me with Diego, an alpha prince, was a wonder only the moon goddess could perform. In the space of a month, I will be married to my love. Who knows, soon enough, this long-forsaken alpha princess will reign as Luna in another pack.

I got to the pack house and headed straight to the quarters of the alpha prince. I could see a few people guarding the way.

"Hi," I said cheerfully. "Good day. Is the alpha prince in?"

"Yes, but you can't see him now. I'm sorry.”

A soft frown formed on my face. "What do you mean?"

He looked a bit dazed. It appeared he was fighting for the words to say. Could it be that Diego was not okay?

"Talk to me," I pressed on. "What do you mean?"

"He… he's having a moment and ordered not to be disturbed. "

My goodness! I was right all along. Diego must be troubled.

"So, you see, you can't—"

Without letting him finish the statement he was about to make, I trudged forward, making as many strides as I could within seconds. I had just one person in mind— Diego. He was my only source of happiness. There's no d*mn way I would let him go through whatever was worrying him alone.

I walked through the hallway that led to his chamber. However, the closer I got, it appeared my strides were turned to slow and careful steps. I was like a car coming to a slow stop. My ears had to be playing some pranks with me.

“Urgh! Harder, Diego! I love it! I freaking love you!"

There's no way I heard correctly. That could not have come from the door ahead of me. Perhaps, my heart was beating too fast. Or was my super hearing as a wolf getting extreme?

"I need you to go faster, Diego. Please don’t slow down!"

The closer I got, the louder it got. I took a few more steps before finally coming to a stop at the door. I could hear it all, flesh slamming together, a soft lady's moan, and a masculine groan for pleasure, I could hear it all.

"Breathe in, Kayla,” I said gently to myself while trying to relax. "Breathe out."

I shut my eyes for a couple of seconds. It was all in my head. Yes! It had to be an imagination. My fear of losing Diego was getting into me.

"Yes, deeper!!" The lady's cry of pleasure escaped through the room and hit my ears.

That voice. It sounded so familiar. No way. Like a dazed animal, I groped for the hinge and pushed the door open.

At the same instant, I threw myself in, my body went cold. My worst fear was staring right at me. My stepsister, Adire, was spread like a piece of clothing on the bed, and slamming into her was the one I loved dearly.

"Di.. Diego.." I managed to mutter his name.

My world crumbled right before my eyes. Just why? Why would he do this to me?

"And who let her in?" I heard Adire ask with disgust but I chose to ignore her.

"Why?!! Diego, why?!! How could you do this to me?!"

Adire let out a sigh and stepped out of the bed with her naked body.

"Ugly duckling, look at me properly," she said to me. “What makes you think that an alpha prince as charming as Diego would stoop so low to be with a miserable daughter of a b*tch like you?" She laughed hysterically.

"You're nobody, Kayla. You don't deserve anything good in life."

My feet were shaking as I tried to control myself. The one person that I thought had my back had been banging my step-sister.

"How dare you, Adire?!" I yelled. "You tramp! How could you?! I thought—"

"Darn it, Kayla!" Diego cut me off. "You are too dramatic for my liking."

What? Did he just say that to me? I was hoping this could be a mistake. Perhaps, my sister seduced him into sleeping with her. Adire was always like this.

Whatever source of joy I had, she did everything within her might to kill it. This had to be the height of it. My heart was tearing apart.

"What… What did I do wrong? " I stammered.

He let out a huge sigh and threw a glance at Adire. "Why is your sister so dumb?"

Adire let out a mocking laugh while staring at me. "Well, I was not born by her miserable mom."

I searched for words but could find none. Diego rose from the bed and took a few steps towards me, naked.

"If you must know, Kayla, I will tell you. You're too dumb to reign with me as Luna. You're lousy. You don't know how to do anything!" He stroked his hair.

“And you see this dude right here," he pointed to his manhood, “you’ve never made him feel good. Adire knows how to drive me crazy in bed. But you, all you do is tell me to wait till after the mating ceremony.”

I was in a pool of despair. I thought I had found my true love. Little did I know it was all an illusion waiting to fade away. My heart had been ripped open. I felt betrayed. I was lost. Lines of tears formed on my cheeks. Gently, they made their descent.

"But… but our mating ceremony is in a month," I said in a teary tone. “You should have waited. Why do this to me?” I sniffed the tears that threatened to drop, back in.

"Did you hear that?" He asked Adire and they both burst into laughter.

He walked behind her and pressed against her.

"Ouch!" Adire muttered with a smile at me. “I can feel that, babe."

Diego kissed her before my eyes. Then, he let go and approached me.

“By the power vested in me as an alpha prince, I, Diego, reject you as my mate!"

I hoped he wouldn't say those words. I felt a dagger pierce what was left of me. With tears rolling down my cheeks, I dashed out of the room and ran as far as I could. This was why the guard said he didn't want to be disturbed. He never wanted me.

He only saw me as an idiot.

In the next couple of minutes, I was drowning in bottles of alcohol. All I wanted to do was drink my pain away. With every bottle, anger replaced my despair. I was angry at Diego for letting me down. I was mad at my stepsister and stepmom. They made life tough. And finally, I was angry at myself for being stupid. I will drink it all away.

After a few more bottles, I could feel a different energy. I staggered out of my chair and mounted the podium of the bar. The music was luring, my body began to move. I was high and I loved this feeling My sorrows were gone. Not just that, but my clothes too. I had stripped it off before everyone, left in just

my underwear.

But I failed to notice the two scary but hot pair of blue eyes glaring at me from a corner.

KAYLA'S POV

Though high, I could still remember all that had transpired earlier vividly, they reused to leave my mind.

I let out a hurtful but alcohol driven laugh. The past will remain in the past. My present mattered more. Oh yes. I could see the eyes of people staring in awe . Diego made a mistake. I grabbed more bottles and emptied them in a jiffy. The fire burned in me . I could hear every part of me resonating with the flow of the music.

While I was lost in the reverie, a figure approached me. I could tell he was feeling my moves. His body too seemed to move in rhythm with the flashing red and blue lights of the bar. He muttered inaudible words. The dude was probably trying to get my attention.

“Hello, pretty!" I heard him speak loudly into my ear.

I threw a glance at him and continued dancing. I needed everyone to see how hot I was, Diego was wrong about me. In just a short while, I already got myself admirers. However, it didn't take a few more
