Blossom POV.
"You will marry Alpha Dean! Do you understand?!"
Uncle Alejandro's voice was deep and firm, enough to stop me from opening the door. Probably my sister Diana pleaded again.
Its been two days since our uncle announced the wedding of my sister to Alpha Dean, the alpha who lost his wife a few days ago, and until now, I still can't believe our uncle's decision! Alpha Dean is a death sentence! He is known as the most cruel alpha in the entire continent! Yet, I can't do anything to help my sister.
"Make sure you look good tomorrow! I don't want any unnecessary problems!"
After does remark, I heard footsteps, a signal for me to turn the doorknob. "Uncle Alejandro..." I greeted with a smile on my face. I make sure that he won't notice the annoyance and anger that I hide. If he finds out that I don't agree with the marriage, surely he will lock me to my room until my sister is taken away by the bastard Alpha Dean.
"Blossom," Uncle Alejandro uttered with his usual strict face. He looked at the tray I was holding.
"Diana did not eat her dinner since she is busy preparing for tomorrow's event." I uttered before uncle asked anything. Perhaps he also knows my sister has lost her appetite after his announcement. He just walked and passed, without any warning as he usually does.
"Sis..." After Uncle Alejandro was gone, I quickly approached Diana, placed the tray on the side table and sat next to her on the bed.
"Blossom... what should I do? You know I don't want to marry Alpha Dean. I can't marry him...but Uncle Alejandro-"
"Uncle don't own you! Diana, its your life and if you don't want to marry that bastard then don't! You have the right to choose to marry the one you love." I cut her words. Although my advice is far from the truth because we both know our uncle, the alpha of our pack can make all the decisions for the two of us.
"Blossom, you are right... In fact I really do believe that our lives are in our hands," Diana responded. Her eyes are clouded by the suppressed tears "... However, there are times when you have to forget this belief–because in reality, our life is destined to this pack and our fate is held by the superiors... So –"
"Run away! Go with him and leave this place!" the word just came out of my mouth. Although our life in the pack is restrained, it cannot be said to be bad. We have everything we needed, that's why running away never crossed my mind. And as long as we are unharmed, we can wait for our mates to get us out here.
Diana was surprised, her eyes widened and remained speechless. "Blossom..."
"I have an idea... This is what we gonna do." And it seems, Diana accepted my suggestion because he immediately nodded and sincerely listened to my 'idea'.
The idea I'm talking about is simple... Diana will pretend to be a maid to leave the mansion while me–I will prepare all her needs... A few clothes and huge amount of jewelry and cash. Then, I will also make sure that no one will notice Diana is no longer in her room and to insure that, I will stay behind and make some commotion to divert everyone's attention to me.
.........
Two o'clock in the morning
"Blossom, are you sure you want to stay? You know uncle Alejandro's attitude... I'm afraid he will-"
"Shh... uncle Alejandro can't do anything to me that he hasn't already done," I uttered with confidence while opening the back door. "Stop worrying me and focus on what you need to do..."
Diana hugged me tightly before taking a step. "Once we settle down we will contact you," she muttered before walking away.
When Diana was out of my sight, only then did I return to my room. I knew for myself, I needed a rest because the next day-I was going to face a terrifying alpha. Certainly, uncle Alejandro will not believe that I know nothing about Diana's escape. But I'm ready... No matter what he does, I won't betray my sister.
.....
A loud thump echoed in my sleep, along with a hard shaking of my shoulder. 'Damn it! I didn't expect uncle Alejandro to go to this room so early!' I couldn't help wincing because of the pain of my hip hitting the floor.
"Blossom! How dare you scheme behind my back!" uncle Alejandro roared as my body fell to the floor.
"Ouch! Uncle Alejandro, what are you talking about? Will you please calm down and tell me what is going on? What did I-"
"Where is your sister! You talked to her last night! I know you know something, so tell me everything!"
"I won't say anything because I don't know anything!" I responded firmly while staring straight at uncle Alejandro. At that moment I didn't feel scared, maybe my brain was still asleep.
"No one can defy me and everyone knows that! You and your sister are ungrateful! I make it lear that this marriage is for the good of the pack and your sister still chooses to run away!" Uncle Alejandro's voice is cold but calm and this kind of voice is more terrifying for me.
"Listen to my command! From now on, I denounce Diana to the pack and now she is a fugitive!! Uncle Alejandro's voice echoed throughout my room "And you, Blossom- you will take her place! You will marry Alpha Dean!"
"What?! But uncle! You can't do this to me! I cant marry Alpha Dean! Uncle please, take back your command..." I uttered as my hands quickly moved to Uncle Alejandro's arm.
That plea of mine just flew in the air, my hands that were holding uncle Alejandro were pulled away by him forcefully. My pleading gaze was only met with a cold gaze.
"Stop resisting and get ready! I want you to be perfect in everyone's eyes!" After this remark, uncle Alejandro turned around and left the room.
As soon as the door was closed, I quickly ran and made sure the door was locked. 'Finally! This is my long awaited opportunity...'
