Aislyn opened her eyes to look at the person standing over her and then her eyes darted to the young servant girl who was quickly backing away.
"Oi!" She shouted, voice breaking as she strained her throat, "I said to get the 'large, buff' one, not this limp pussy!"
"Okay, I'm leaving," said Alpha turning to walk away.
"Wait!" Called out Aislyn, lifting her hand.
Alpha turned around and looked down at Aislyn, his lip curling in disdain.
"Sorry," she mumbled, suddenly very interested in looking at the grass.
"Don't strain yourself."
Aislyn's head shot up at the reminder of a distant memory, a chill running down her spine at the similar position she found herself in; desperate for help.
At seeing Alpha's cold, unforgiving stare, Aislyn sighed and dragged her pointy fingernail along the tear in the material of her suit. Her nail sliced through the fabric up to her wrist and flapped open.
Aislyn held her arm up for Alpha to see and said, "I got, um... cut."
"Shit," breathed Alpha, drawing out the word, "That's nasty... Just like you."
Although Aislyn knew that her blood was working as an antidote against the poison, the wound was still painful and it had drained her. It was a gruesome wound and even she, usually not faint of heart, found it to look revolting.
"Ha-ha. That's why I need your help. I can't get into the Council House unseen and I can't let anyone see me wounded. You need to help me inside."
"Oh, 'I need to'? I don't need to do anything. Do you know how much embarrassment you caused me last time I saw you? Not to mention the pain."
"Are we really going to start talking about pain?" Said Aislyn, snorting.
Alpha glared at her before bending down to grab her uninjured arm, roughly yanking her to her feet.
"Ouch!" Yelped Aislyn, "Gentle now, Maxwell of Skylar, Serilda won't be happy with you if you hurt me."
"Well, Aislyn of Bane, tonight I am working undercover, she won't come near me. That servant girl happened upon me by chance, I was only stopping by to run over the plan. She caught me on my way out."
"Lucky you."
Aislyn looped her arm through Alpha's and cradled the other one into her chest, hiding her wound.
"Just drop me off at Serilda's rooms."
"What's the magic word?"
"Are you being serious?"
Alpha just looked at her, an evil glint in his eyes.
Aislyn physically had to grit her teeth to hold in all the bad things she wanted to say to him.
"Please," She ground out.
Alpha flashed a toothy grin at her before bolting towards the Council House, walking as fast as he could.
"Wouldn't want you to be late for Serilda would we?"
Aislyn settled for a huff, too busy trying to see through the stars that glazed in her eyes from the pain that radiated through her body to reply.
"So where's your bitch?"
"Huh?"
"You know, Raven."
"Uh... we planned to meet here."
Alpha opened his mouth, no doubt to throw another jab at her, Aislyn thought to herself, but she cut him off as they neared the entrance to the House,
