Chapter 6 Do you want to be free?

 Amy's body subconsciously shrank back. She knew that even if a slave gave birth to an alpha child, she would not have the right of inheritance, for the bastard children had the blood of the slave in them, and they were doomed to be unappreciated. There were some packs of Luna who would even force slaves to take pills to prevent pregnancy before mating with their masters.

 Children of slave blood are as lowly as their mothers, but Alpha Gavin asks her to be his surrogate. Amy could not understand what Alpha Gavin was asking for, a high and mighty alpha like him who would have countless women undressed for him at the snap of a finger. He is perfectly capable of finding any she-wolf to mate with.

 "Why me?"

 When Amy looks up at Alpha Gavin , he happens to be staring back. There was a power in those eyes of Alpha Gavin 's, as if he could see right through people.

 "Because you're not like other women." Alpha Gavin 's tone softened, "I've tried to impregnate other women and failed. The doctor told me that my sperm couldn't even combine with those women's eggs."

 "Didn't the doctor tell you why that was?" Amy asked in a small voice.

 "The doctor told me that my physical parameters were normal." He said seriously, "Medical reports from the surrogate I used to work with showed everything was fine. It was a medical problem that the doctor could not explain either. Eventually, the doctor suggested that it would be best for me to find a female wolf with superb reproductive abilities to mate with, and perhaps it would work. And the most reproductively capable pack in the entire wolf pack is the Purple star pack."

 And Amy, the only living werewolf in the Purple Star pack. So he picked Amy.

 "But you already have an heir." Amy said.

 "Taylor?" He sneered, "Though he calls me father, he is the child of my wife and her ex-husband. Tyler doesn't have my blood in him. I need a child of my own to inherit the pack."

 Alpha Gavin needs a woman who is physically fit and fertile. No, perhaps all he needs is a womb, a vessel in which his seed can grow and develop.

 Amy felt sad that she did not want to be a vessel, that she did not want her womb to be used by someone else.

 "But a child born to a slave cannot have inheritance rights." Amy thought the kind reminder would change Alpha Gavin 's mind, but he was adamant.

 "That's not something you should consider." Alpha Gavin said with some impatience, "You have too many questions, girl."

 "I'm sorry, Master." Amy sensed that Alpha Gavin was getting a little restless, and she tried to say as little as possible.

 "If you're pregnant with my child, I'll give you your freedom and some money." There was temptation in Alpha Gavin 's words, "So you want to make this deal with me?"

 Amy is overwhelmed with shame at the thought of her body being used as a reproductive tool. Her heart was full of revolt. But even if Amy did not say yes, what could she do? Amy is just a slave, and Alpha Gavin decides her fate.

 Alpha Gavin chose Amy because she was the last werewolf of the Purple Star pack. Alpha Gavin 's words remind Amy of her father, who told her before he died that the Purple Star Pack had been framed. Their Alpha was not conspiring against them, and their pack was innocent.

 Only when Amy is free can she find out the truth for her father!

 Now there was a chance for Amy to be free if she could get pregnant and have a baby. But what if Amy fails to get pregnant, and will Alpha Gavin punish her?

 "You only have 3 seconds to think about it." Alpha Gavin said, holding up a finger, "1, 2,"

 "Yes." Before Alpha Gavin could count to three, Amy hastily agreed, "I do."

 "Very good." Alpha Gavin gave a satisfied smile, and then he moved slowly closer to Amy. The hot, alcohol-scented breath from his nose tickled Amy's face.

 "I don't want too many people to know what we just talked about." Alpha Gavin 's hand pressed gently against Amy's heaving chest, "Can you keep this a secret? Girl."

 "I..." Amy gasped as Alpha Gavin 's eyes locked on Amy, those mesmerizing eyes like a wide net ready to swallow Amy up.

 "Answer me." Alpha Gavin 's voice was irresistible.

 "Yes." Amy felt her breath catch, "I will keep this secret."

 "Remember." His lips pressed against Amy's ear, "It's a secret between us."

 Alpha Gavin hooked one of his fingers into the gap between the buttons of Amy's shirt, and then his fingers made gentle circles between Amy's breasts. Immediately, Amy felt as if her body had been electrified, every cell leaping with electrical excitement.

 "Is it now?" Is Alpha Gavin trying to impregnate Amy right now? Oh, God. She was not ready for that.

 "I want you, but not now." Alpha Gavin said as he unbuttoned Amy's shirt with one hand, one, two, three, until Amy's white bra appeared in the middle of the shirt.

 Amy nervously bit her lower lip as she wondered what Alpha Gavin would do to her next.

 "The doctor also told me that surrogates have a higher chance of conception if they are virgins." His lips rubbed against Amy's earlobe, "Tell me, are you a virgin?"

 Amy's hands gripped the couch. It was the first time she had been so near the other sex. Amy felt nervous and alarmed, her heart rate rising.

 One of Alpha Gavin 's hands slid slowly inside Amy's shirt, and Amy felt a tightness in the small of her back that made it impossible to speak.

 "Answer me."

 "Yes." Amy's voice had grown as weak as a mosquito's.

 "If I find out you lied, I will punish you severely." Alpha Gavin 's tall body pressed against Amy, who had to lean her head against the arm of the couch. He looked down upon Amy with a predatory gaze.

 "I swear I'm telling the truth." Amy turned her head, not daring to look at him directly.

 "Maybe I should verify that you're not lying." Alpha Gavin stared at Amy, then ran his other hand down the small of Amy's back.

 When Alpha Gavin 's hand was about to approach between Amy's legs, Amy instantly and subconsciously tightened her legs. His hand also rested on the bottom of Amy's belly.

 "Please, no." Amy was on the verge of tears.

 Alpha Gavin looked at Amy calmly for a few seconds, then wiped the tears from the corners of Amy's eyes with his fingers, moving gently but without emotion.

 "Remember, never say no to your master." Alpha Gavin said.

 "Yes, Master." Amy choked out.

 "I'm giving you the chance to be free, you should savor it." Alpha Gavin continued, "Next time, when I really need you. I want you to behave properly."

 How should I behave? Amy was confused, but all she could do was nod in agreement.

 "Look at you." He moved his body away from Amy's, "You really are a virgin."

 Amy looked at Alpha Gavin in confusion. Was this what he called a test?

 "You need to be tempered." He stood up still looking down at Amy with a downward gaze, "I've never seen a girl with such clumsy reactions as you."

 I've never met an Alpha as bad as you, either. Amy swallowed the heartfelt words in her throat. Alpha Gavin would have torn her apart if he had heard her.

 "It's late, you should rest." Alpha Gavin said, grabbing his jacket from beside the couch, "You can sleep here tonight."

 The door closed. Amy was relieved when Alpha Gavin 's figure disappeared into the room. Then she rose hurriedly and unlocked the door.

 As Amy lies on her back in bed, her eyes are glued to the ceiling chandelier.

 From now on, she is Alpha Gavin 's secret surrogate. To be free, Amy will have to try and carry Alpha Gavin 's child.

 She had no choice.
