Page 39 of Defiant Beta

A scream tears from my throat.

“I’d say she needs one for every minute she fought.” The guy holding my wrists down says with malicious glee.

Probably because I somehow managed to kick him in the head when one of them grabbed me and tackled me to the floor.

“Aminute? That’s generous considering she’s not even an omega. All that work and we scoop up a worthless beta instead. A second. And I’d say she fought us for at least thirty of them.”

They laugh as I squeeze my eyes shut.

Don’t antagonize them, Della.

But I know myself. No way am I going down without giving everything I have.

“What do you say, worthless beta?” Zach whispers into my ear. “You ready to suck our cocks in gratitude?”

I mutter something under my breath.

“What’s that, sweetheart? Yes, to the blowjob?”

I twist my head and look him right in the eye. “I should have tasered you in your balls. God fucking knows someone like you should never procreate. Even one of you is one too many.”

His face turns white with rage, lips thinning as his hands tighten around the belt he’s wrapped around his fist.

“Sixty,” he whispers, his voice harsh. “A bitch like this deserves a lashing she’ll never forget. Then we’ll see about that blowjob, `cause, sweetheart, you’ll be begging for it before I’m halfway through.”

I lift an eyebrow as I swallow my fear. “Fuck. You.”

He grins. “You’ll be begging to fuck me soon enough.”

Then he lets the belt fall.

I taste blood in my mouth from biting my lip and then my tongue.

I try not to scream. I fight to hold all the agony inside and not let them hear how much they hurt me, but I can’t. My screams pour out of me with each stinging lash of fire across my back.

I cry out when the alphas roll me, my burning back slapping against the ground.

Footsteps crunch toward me and Zach’s voice is smug when he says, “That’s thirty down, sweetheart. You ready for this to beover? All you gotta do is open that mouth. Do a good enough job and I might just let you live through this.”

I pry my eyelids open, blink tears from my eyes, and look him in the face. “Bite me.”

He drags the taser out of his back pocket and slaps me hard across the face with it.

When my head stops ringing, he’s straddling me, my arms trapped by my side as he runs the edge of the taser lightly down the side of my face. “I think I’d prefer to do something else.” The taser continues down, stopping near my right breast. “How about I taser you right here over and over? Would that teach you respect?”

The two other alphas shuffle from foot to foot near the metal door.

“Zach… shit, we’re just here to have a good time.”

“Yeah, man. This isn’t what I signed up for.”

But Zach doesn’t look away as his left hand tightens like a noose around my throat. He shakes me so hard I see stars. “This bitch changed the rules. We wanted an omega. Instead, we get this worthless bit of trash. What good is a beta to us? She can’t even take a knot.”

He stares down at me, hate glittering in his eyes as his muscled thighs trap my arms. His bulky weight makes it a struggle to breathe.

And my back…

I’m lying on a volcano with how much it burns.
