DAWN’S POV It was already morning and I was still lying on the floor as there is no need to get up. I decided never to make use of the bed because it was not meant for me. There is also no need to lay on the bed when I am already condemned to die. The bed would do me no good. Moreover, I know my father would not have brought me here if there was any other place worse than this. He would have preferred that I have no luxury at this point in my life. The door opened and someone walked in but I did not bother to turn and see who it was. At this point, it could only be one person, my father. “I see you’ve gotten used to your new station in life” he sighed and without waiting for a response, he continued. “Those Pixies are just so heartless and I doubt they would ever give you a room. Tell me, where were you sleeping over there, did they even think of giving you a bed even for a night? Those heartless beasts. But why did you choose to remain by their side, why not just say that you were forced? But you never denied it. but just so you know, you will not be free even if you do that. You are destined to die anyway, and using your act of betrayer is just good riddance to bad rubbish. Now it would be said that you brought this upon yourself, no one would dare to point a finger at me” he finally stopped. To say that I was relieved not been forced to listen to him anymore would be an understatement. Even though I never acknowledged his presence or respond to him he kept going on and on. I thought he would not stop. But his admission only confirms my suspicion, he is not doing this because of my offense. He would have done this whether there was an accusation or not. I could not understand what he sought to achieve by spilling my blood. He went and sat on the bed and continued. “Hmm, I remember how those Pixies treated me, but you don’t look like someone that has been maltreated. On the contrary, you look like a princess and that got me worried to know what stake you have in Pixolands. Do they even know that you are my daughter?” saying this he laughed and continued. “Sure they don’t. You were smart to conceal your identity. But you know what? That is good for both of us. If you had revealed your identity, those blood-suckers would not have wasted time before they do away with you and that would be too bad for me” he stopped and shook his head. He waited for some time before saying. “So tell me, now let’s talk” I did not respond and that only annoyed him. He came to me and pulled me off the floor by my hair. He forced me to sit on the floor and look at him. “Even if you have accepted death, that doesn’t take away my authority over you” he spat. I remained just where he had placed me and stared at him blandly. I wonder what he is here to talk about, he has already condemned me, and now I owe him nothing. He is right, I have accepted death, but he is wrong to say that he still has authority over me because just like him, I no longer have a father. “How were you able to maneuver your way around the Pixies, you had to deny your identity, right?” he asked. I remained quiet and continued to stare at him but before I knew it, his slap has landed on my face. I squeaked and coiled into myself in pain. I did not even know when he got up from the bed. “And to think that you still have some strength in you after going without food for such a long time. I thought you would be willing to cooperate for some piece of bread. But just so you know I have taken away such privilege from you. You are going to answer my every question, and you will get nothing to eat or drink. And today, I will turn you in to the alpha. Still, that does not change anything concerning your fate. You must know that taking you to the alpha is just for formalities. Are we clear on this?” he barked. I was in thought and didn’t pay attention to him anymore. He is finally going to take me to the alpha, in such a way I will meet the queen. Oh no, I am not going to die. This is a miracle. I was elated. Without any form of warning, I was kicked hard on my back. I whined and rubbed my hands over it. “Are we clear on that?” he screamed. “Yes... sir...” I wailed. I have already disowned him as a father and would not refer to him as such. His kick was just as if a huge rock was thrown on my back. I could feel the cracking of the bones on my back. The pain was extreme and it was as if I will never recover from it. “Now to my question, how were you able to maneuver your way around the Pixies?” he asked again and returned to the bed. “Nothing spectacular. They only needed a beta wolf” I replied. My answer was not entirely incorrect. The queen needed me around her, and I am a beta wolf. There is no need for me to lie. He would be able to see through my lies due to the bond we share. He sniffed and said. “Oh, she did. That is strange though. And now, what stake do you have in Pixolands, I thought you were kidnapped, why were you treated so well and I got the exact opposite?” he asked. “I wouldn’t know. I am not allowed into their affairs. Or maybe the queen felt you were going to take me away from her” I replied.This too should not be far from the truth and I hope he buys it. I don’t want to be beaten to death before I get the opportunity of going to the packhouse. He gnarled his lips in hate. “That bitch, she left my sons lifeless and stole my daughter. And yet they all say I did wrong by her” he looked at me again. “Now what will she do if she discovers that you are missing?” he asked. “I don’t know for sure, sir Tim. She has the three brother packs to herself now, and in them, there are a lot of beta wolves. I doubt she would notice my absence” I replied. “I am glad that you know that you were been used by those heartless Pixies. You brought this upon yourself. Ensure to repeat this same thing in front of the alpha later today” he got up and without taking another look at me, he walked away. Now I wonder what has become of Gina. Is she able to meet the queen or has she been captured by the zombies? If any harm should come to her as a result of helping me, then I would never forgive myself.
