A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 23. He is Jake II
Eira’s PovHe doesn’t care about finding his mate?What does that even mean?She’s probably out there—waiting, hoping that her mate will come and claim her, so they can finally be together.But the thought barely had time to settle before a bitter ache twisted in my chest. Finding your mate doesn’t mean a happy ending. I should know.I’m living proof of that.My mate and I went our separate ways.The bond? I broke it.And now… there’s no going back.“We’ll discuss this later,” Magnus said flatly, cutting off his aide. “We have a guest at the door.”I flinched.Of course, he knew I’d been standing there the whole time. No use pretending.Before either of them could move, I knocked lightly, then pushed the door open just enough to peek inside.“Can I come in?” I asked, my eyes falling on Magnus behind his desk. His aide stood beside him, frowning like I’d just tracked mud into a sacred place.He didn’t like me.Couldn’t blame him. Who would like the woman who used to be mated to your Al

Eira’s POVThe longer the silence stretched, the more nervous I became. What if he rejected the rule? Could I really stay here, knowing I’d have no equal footing in the pack—that he’d always be right, no matter what he did?I couldn’t believe I might have to leave this pack… the one I had just joined.“As long as you come here with me, you won’t be a decorative Luna. You’ll have equal footing. It’s normal,” Magnus said, his voice so casual it made my eyes widen.“What?” I blinked, stunned. He agreed?“You heard me,” he muttered, eyes locking with mine. “We’ll both have equal standing—if you become my wife.”His words brought a strange sense of comfort. Kieran would never have agreed to something like this. He always insisted the Alpha deserved the utmost respect, even from his own Luna.I shook my head and lightly smacked my cheeks, earning a questioning look from Magnus, which I ignored. I needed to stop comparing every man to Kieran.Maybe I’d overthought everything.“Fifth—I'll hav

Eira’s POV“Luna! The Alpha has returned from his trip!”The door swung open, and my maid’s voice jolted me out of my thoughts. I turned to her, a smile spreading across my face at the news of his arrival. It had been two long months since Kieran left the pack for an important matter, and now, finally, he was back.I had missed him more than I’d liked to admit.Closing the book in my hands, I rose to my feet as quickly as possible. I needed to see him.“Okay,” I said to my maid, a hint of excitement in my voice. “I’ll go welcome him.”But as the words left my lips, I noticed something was off. There was a strange look on her face—sad, almost concerned. This wasn’t the first time my husband had been away for so long, but she had never looked like this before.“Is something wrong?” I asked, narrowing my eyes.She flinched slightly before shaking her head. “The Alpha… he returned with a woman,” she said hesitantly. “She looked like she might be his mistress.”Her words hit me like a blow
Last Updated : 2025-01-15A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 2.How Dare You Ask For Divorce?!
Eira’s POVThe silence that followed my words felt suffocating, as though the air itself had been sucked out of the room. Every pair of eyes was fixed on me, and I could feel their judgment, their pity, their shock. But none of it mattered. I had made my decision.Kieran, still frozen in disbelief, took a step closer to me. His hand shot out, grabbing my arm with a force that made me gasp. His grip tightened, his nails digging into my skin, and I winced at the pain. The look in his eyes was one of disbelief and anger.“Why?” he demanded, his voice low, dangerous. “Why would you ask for a divorce, Eira? After everything I’ve done for you… after everything I’ve given you?”I didn’t flinch, even as he twisted my arm slightly, forcing me to meet his gaze. My eyes, cold and unwavering, locked onto his, and I fought to keep the tremor in my voice under control.“Let go of me,” I whispered, though the words carried a weight of command. His grip didn’t loosen. Instead, his fingers dug deeper
Last Updated : 2025-01-15A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 3. Locked Up
Eira’s POV“Eira… do you want to be his wife that badly?” My father’s voice rang in my head, his face etched with concern and confusion.“He is my mate, Father,” I replied, pretending not to notice the look on his face.Kieran was my mate, and I had waited my whole life to meet him. I wasn’t going to let him go.“Sigh... I hope you’ll be happy with him,” my father said with a weary smile.His face faded away, replaced by faint voices echoing in my ears. Pain ripped through my head as my eyes flickered open. The first thing I saw was a ceiling staring down at me.Where am I?The faint voices grew louder, accompanied by a sharp pain in my chest.“Ugh…”“Come on, Alpha, right there.”“Haaah… Uugh… Aaah...”“You’re such a slut, aren’t you?” A familiar voice groaned.“Yeah, the slut carrying your baby—oh, AAH~!”My eyes widened in shock, memories flooding back as the word baby hit me like a blow. Right, I had been dragged into this room with Vanessa. But what were they doing? Was that… a m
Last Updated : 2025-01-16A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 4. Framed
Eira’s POVSeeing Kieran there made my heart race with panic. She had jumped by herself, ensuring he saw her fall. She was framing me for something I hadn’t done.Wasn’t he supposed to be in the dining room? He had been waiting for me there. Why was he here now?Even though Vanessa had fallen of her own accord, Kieran would believe me, wouldn’t he? He knows I would never do such a thing. I wasn’t that kind of person.“Vanessa!” he shouted, rushing to her side without sparing me a glance.I froze at the top of the stairs, and my breath caught in my throat. He cradled her in his arms as she clutched her belly, tears streaming down her face with calculated precision.“Are you alright, Vanessa?” he asked, his voice filled with fear and concern.“Our pup,” she whimpered. “I didn’t mean to come between you two. I even suggested leaving. Now harm has come to my baby. Maybe it would’ve been better if you got me a house outside, away from here. I don’t want to make the Luna uncomfortable.”Her
Last Updated : 2025-01-16A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 5. You Love Me
Eira’s POVLying on the bed for hours, knowing the Alpha of the North was in the house, felt like an eternity. He had visited, yet I had no idea what he wanted. At first, I thought there must be some grand occasion that had brought him here.However, there had been no sound of music or celebration, which only meant one thing—he was here for something else. A deal, perhaps?Since I wasn’t allowed to greet the guest, I could only assume Kieran had introduced Vanessa as the Luna of the pack. It made sense—he’d want to hide the fact that he had locked his wife in the attic with an injured head.The possibility of that scenario played over and over in my mind when the door clicked open. Startled, I jumped off the bed and turned to see who it was. To my dismay, it was Kieran. His gaze swept around the attic, his expression filled with distaste.“I had no idea the attic was this shabby,” he commented, his eyes finally settling on me. “I also can’t believe a shattered woman like you would sta
Last Updated : 2025-01-16A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 6. Leftovers
Eira’s POVPacing back and forth in the room, I tried to think of an escape plan. Even if I attempted to flee, I knew I couldn’t escape Kieran. He would catch up to me if he decided to chase after me.He wasn’t willing to let me go, even though I had rejected him. I still couldn’t understand him.How could he claim to love me after everything he had done? It was disgusting. Hating someone like him wasn’t hard. Yet, deep down, I feared I might give in to his words if I stayed here too long.I might not have felt the bond because my wolf was absent and I had rejected him. Knowing that I had no idea when my wolf would return, I needed to leave before that happened.After thinking for hours, I still couldn’t come up with any viable escape plans. Just as I was about to give up, vivid blue eyes flashed in my mind—his dark, silver-streaked hair falling over his temple as he peered up at me.My eyes widened. I still had one option. ‘Magnus.’*****I spent the next three hours devising a plan

A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 22. He is Jake
Eira’s Pov“Dress or pants?”The brown-haired girl held up a blue dress and a pair of pants, flashing me a bright smile.I hesitated, my eyes darting between the two. I had no idea which to choose.For the past hour, she had made me shower thoroughly, and now she was waiting for me to pick an outfit. That was something Fiona used to do for me. Thinking of her now, I felt a pang of worry. Was she okay at that pack? Had her mate taken her away since I was no longer there? I just hoped she was alright.“Dress or pants?” she repeated, this time her smile faltering. “Are you okay?”I quickly nodded and pointed at the pants. “The pants are fine.”She studied me for a moment, clearly unconvinced, but didn’t push. Instead, she placed the pants on the bed, along with a white shirt and a blue leather jacket.“Do you need help getting dressed?” she asked.I shook my head and picked up the pants. “Nope. I’ll be done in a few minutes.”A few moments later, I stood in front of the mirror, fully dre
A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 21. Getting To North
Eira’s POVWatching the car drive past familiar places in the pack made my heart ache. Though I wasn’t originally from here, I had grown to love it. Even after leaving my own pack, I had preferred this one. However, I now regret that decision.If only I hadn’t merged the two packs, I would have had a place to return to. But that wouldn’t have mattered—Kieran would never have let me go, and he would never have agreed to divide the packs either.It had been years since my father’s death, and the packs had become so intertwined that separating them now was nearly impossible. Most of the influential members had already left after I ignored their warnings against the merge.This was all my fault.Now, I was on my way to another pack to be their Luna. But would they accept me? I had no history with them, no factual background, and after changing my appearance, I was nothing more than a stranger Magnus had picked up. A woman with nowhere else to go.Would they welcome me?Not only that. Kier
A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 20. Leaving The Pack
Eira’s POVA gasp escaped my lips, and my eyes widened in shock. I hadn’t expected him to get violent so suddenly.Magnus tightened his grip, his voice a deadly whisper. “You don’t get to tell me when to stop.”Kieran clawed at Magnus’ wrist, his face turning red from the pressure. Magnus leaned in, his eyes burning with rage.“If Eira isn’t here by tomorrow, safe and unharmed, I will burn this entire pack to the ground. Do you understand me?”Kieran gasped for air, nodding frantically.Magnus released him, letting him collapse onto the table, coughing and wheezing. Then, without sparing another glance, Magnus turned to Vanessa.“You should pray your child isn’t a boy,” he said darkly. “Because if he inherits his father’s weakness, he won’t survive long.”With that, he straightened his coat, casting one last disgusted look at the two of them before turning to me.Holding out his hand, he waited for me to take it. “Let’s go. We are leaving this pack for now.”Raising my head, I took hi
A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 19. Angry Kieran
Eira’s POVAs soon as the words rolled off Magnus' lips, Vanessa flinched, her eyes widening in shock. She looked as if she had been shot.Kieran didn’t look good, either. His face was stunned, clearly not expecting something like that.“Are you going to say some greetings, or…?” Magnus asked, intentionally trailing off to give them a chance to respond to the question he had just asked.I peered at the two of them, waiting for their reaction. Magnus had asked about me, and I wanted to hear what excuse Kieran would give for my disappearance.He hadn’t told Magnus about me vanishing yesterday, and I was sure he wouldn’t do so now, either.“The Luna isn’t back yet,” Kieran muttered, looking like he had regained his composure.I listened, waiting for him to give whatever excuse he had prepared, but he hesitated, his brows furrowing as he tried to fake sadness.“She got caught up in a rogue attack and is injured. She won’t be here until she’s fully healed,” he added, making me flinch. My e
A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 18. Dining Room
Eira’s POV“Get up and get dressed,” he said, rising to his feet, an expressionless look etched on his face. “It’s 11 a.m. There’s a dress for you in the wardrobe. Change into it. We’re joining Kieran for breakfast.”Those words made me freeze. Having breakfast with Kieran again was a nightmare I didn’t want to relive. He would be dining with Vanessa, and facing both of them was the last thing I wanted.It would be even harder to face Vanessa—she was the main reason I had been locked up in the first place.“Is that really necessary?” I asked Magnus, hoping he’d say no. But he shook his head, watching me with a hint of suspicion.His expression seemed to ask, ‘Are you sure you can handle this when you're still terrified of facing him?’“Yes,” he replied. “It is. We’re still leaving today, though.”Without giving me a chance to argue, he headed for the door. “I’ll be waiting outside. Be quick.”With that, the door slammed shut, and his scent lingered in the room. Why did it feel even he
A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 17. Breakfast Invitation
Magnus’s POVA soft snore caught my ears, and I slowly turned to look at the woman lying across from me on the couch. Was she asleep already?Getting off the bed, I dropped the facade of sleeping and headed for the window. Outside, I could see guards patrolling the place—tons of them.I hadn’t mentioned to Eira that Kieran would feel the bond shatter, leaving him clueless about how it broke. He must be feeling a sense of loss right now, and it was quite entertaining to think of him searching for a Luna he wouldn’t even recognize when they met again.Finally, something interesting was happening to me.Now that she was with me, there was no longer a need to deal with Kieran. Since the business was originally her idea, I could work with her directly instead of going through him. He handled the business exchanges even though he had no real understanding of the idea.Being his foolish self, he had also cheated on the perfect woman he could have had by his side. It wasn’t surprising that he
A Deal With The Cursed Alpha 16. Missing Luna
Eira’s POVMy eyes widened in shock as I glanced at her, unable to believe what I had just heard. Did she just call me Eira?Wasn’t she not supposed to recognize me?Did that mean my appearance hadn’t changed at all? But Kieran didn’t recognize me. How could she be the one to do so?“You don’t have to say anything,” Fiona said before I could form a proper response. “I know everything about you.” She mumbled, “And I happen to know the size of your wrist and body, too. You can explain what happened while you were left alone. For now, I’ll take you to Alpha Magnus. It seems to me that you have a better plan.”My lips parted as I tried to speak, but I shut my mouth immediately. There was nothing I could tell her yet—I couldn’t risk someone overhearing. It was better to talk to her later.A few minutes later, she dropped me off in front of a door, which I could tell led to Magnus' room. Bowing her head, she turned around and left before I could even speak.Forcing myself not to call her ba
