I curl my toes out of the reach of the grimy, seeking fingers and tighten
my grip on the bars above me for better balance as I avoid the arms
reaching through my cage. After hours of maintaining my awkward pose,
my entire body aches, but I ignore my burning muscles and tingling fingers
and focus on the dark thunderclouds gathering on the horizon. Although
the sea looks calm near the boat, white-capped waves crash in the
distance.
The sun beats down on the tarp stretched over the top of my cage. My
knuckles brush against the rough material as it flaps in the hot breeze. Even
in the shade, my pale skin throbs as though on the verge of sunburn. The
scent of fear, alpha aggression, and death clogs my sinuses.
Sweat runs down my sides, plastering my skimpy dress to my skin.
Barely long enough to reach my upper thighs, the thin material offers little
protection from the sun and even less from the crowd’s leering eyes. My
skin crawls as fingers inch closer to my legs. If my cage weren’t on a
pedestal, I’d have no way to avoid the crazed alphas’ hands.
I shift my gaze to the small gathering of people on the upper deck, but
avert my eyes when fear skitters down my spine.
The Head Sister, who leads an organization of beta females so
expansive yet secretive no one knows their true numbers, watches the
proceedings with calculating eyes. Even without direct eye contact, her
disapproval spears into my chest.
The bruise around my ankle throbs. I didn’t move fast enough earlier,
and a man grabbed me. She’ll never forgive me, which means I’ll feel her
wrath after she sells my first heat.
Her instructions were clear: remain untouched and unmarred to bring
the highest price.
I failed.
Tears sting the back of my eyes.
Even though my soul aches from loneliness, I hold no hope of filling the
void. The Sisters may sell my body time and time again, but the disgusting
men swarming the cage solidify what they’ve told me my entire life: I will
not survive underneath an alpha without their protection.
Alphas are too self-centered. Too brutal. Too animalistic.
At least with The Sisters looking over me, I won’t die a gruesome death.
I wish the storm would roll in faster.
The pile of dead bodies underneath my cage grows as the crazed, halfstarved alphas fight over the chance to reach through the bars. At least the
wind and rain of a storm would wash away the worst of the smell.
I don’t want to do this anymore. Nausea grips me as fingertips graze my
heel.
The ship jerks. Vibrations well up from the bowels of the ship. Violent,
white-capped waves smash against the hull on the port side.
Untethered cages topple and slide against the floorboards. Bodies fly.
Snarls and screams batter my eardrums.
