Alpha Kane 

It's already sunrise and I barely slept a wink because of the beautiful yet frustrating girl sleeping peacefully next to me. I thought she would give in over the night, it was quite obvious she was struggling but I've never seen a wolf as stubborn as she is. After our back and forth she slept off and I just stared at her looking so peaceful.

Her intoxicating scent of lavender, her long full dark hair, her round face and beautiful eyes hidden away by her lids. Looking at her knowing she rejected me is so painful, how could someone like her reject me? It makes absolutely no sense. Women from all over have thrown themselves at me to make them my Luna but the one woman who happens to be my fated mate wants to fight against our bond?

It makes no sense since I know she wants me too but I'm sure she'll come around, maybe if I push her a little she'll see.

I watch her flutter her eyelids gently trying to register where she is and then when it clicks she jolts up, like a panic response. She regains composure then looks at me with a death glare that only makes me want her more.

“you can go for any she wolf in this world so tell me why you're so stuck on making me your Luna?” Stern, rude and straight to the point. No greetings, no nothing. If I couldn't feel how much she wanted me I would actually believe she hated me. This whole situation is frustrating and she isn't making it any easier for me.

“You need to accept that we are fated mates, the sooner you do, the easier this will be for both of us” I watch her have an internal conflict with herself before she finally replies 

“I do not want this, I will do anything else. Absolutely anything will be better than being your Luna” her stern yet soft voice makes my wolf growl but I have to control myself.

“You will do anything right?” I ask, a devious plan creating itself in my mind 

“Yes Alpha Kane of the red claw pack, anything is better than being your Luna” 

“Okay then leave my room and go join the maids to work” I tell her hoping this would make her relent but it doesn't

“What do you want me to start with?” She says submissively. This woman is going to be the end of me.

“I'll follow you work” I get up and she walks with me.

Avery

I have been working for hours and I don't know how much I can take before I finally break down. If I thought alpha Kane was cruel then, now I know he is pure evil. He looks genuinely amused by my torture. I haven't eaten all day and I've done almost all if not all the chores in the mansion. I didn't even know I could dress wounds so fast until he made me look after his injured wolves.

Now we're stuck in one of the empty rooms of his mansion, I'm cleaning everywhere from scratch and I can feel my body growing weaker each second but I have to be strong, I can't let alpha Kane win, I can't let him know he is starting to get to me. I have already vowed that i won't be his Luna, going back on my word is not something I can do. I can not let this man win.

I feel so weak, I might collapse but if I do he'll have the satisfaction of knowing I'm tired, knowing this is hard for me. I can't do that because my ego won't let me.

“Oh shut up Avery, this man is for us, he is our mate! You need to stop all this now” I shake my head ignoring my wolf. She's just the delusional and heavily hormonal side of me. She can't control herself around his presence. I thank God for the logical one.

Alpha Kane 

I watch her take every single ridiculous task I throw at her with pride, I should be offended by how desperate she is to avoid me and not be my mate. I don't appreciate defiance but from her it's actually very hot. Like I can see how passionate she is about trying to believe we are wrong. I don't like watching my mate suffer though.

I know she'll break soon, a part of me knows I should give her what she wants. I don't want to break her, I just want her to accept me, accept us. This is the most difficult situation I've ever been in. Should I just let her go? Watching her suffer, making her suffer isn't going to help me much.

Before I could even think further she collapses. My mind immediately goes blank “Avery!” I rush towards her before she gets to the ground. Taking her in my arms, she looks so pale. What have I done? I shouldn't have put her through all that.

Carrying her in my arms I feel the aching feeling in my chest to protect her. I won't do this to her ever again.

“This is our opportunity” my wolf tells me

“Opportunity for what? Can't you see she's sick?”

“Sick and vulnerable, the perfect opportunity to claim her” my wolf's comment pisses me off. Avery collapsed and he's talking about claiming her? I could never defile her in such a vile way. She will give herself to me soon enough. But willingly.

My wolf doesn't relent trying to convince me, increasing my senses, making me very aware of her scent and making it difficult to ignore how much I want her. She's mind numbingly beautiful but I would rather die than do that to her. If I claim her by force it would make absolutely no sense.

When we got to the room I placed her on the bed and just watched her. I'd already ordered food because I know she's malnourished. Why have I been such a bastard to my own mate? I need to do better. I keep internally scolding myself for all the terrible things I'd done to her. 

I want her, I need her and the thought of losing a mate that took me over thirty years to find is not something that settles well with me. 

I know I might be the cruel alpha and all but I have always craved the connection and now I have found it, I don't think I want to let it go. I just need her to see that I am what she needs too. It might be hard but it's doable. Giving up is not an option, it's not something I've ever done and I am not going to start now.

Avery will be my mate and she is going to love me just the way I have accepted her as mine. This is what I will do even if it'll be my last task. I don't even care about fighting against her father anymore. He'll still pay for all his crimes but I won't use her as a pawn for that.

I can feel his warm body close to mine and all I can feel in this moment is immense disgust. I try to pick my brain and think hard on what happened last night. In comes in flashes but then I fully remember how he pushed me past my limit until I eventually passed out. I am so mad at him that even my wolf doesn’t protest.

    Alpha Kane’s PovMy frustration with Avery grows deeper by the hour. I have done absolutely everything to get a rise out of her but I get absolutely nothing. Even sending the women out changed nothing, she acted like she just didn’t care. It infuriated me. Why doesn’t she want me? That’s a lie, I know she wants me but then why doesn’t she just want to accept it? I accepted her the moment I realized we were mates so what is stopping her from doing the same? I would treat her like a queen and she would never lack. The way she immediately rejected me made me lose my mind and she consistently makes it known how much she wants me to reject her too. I don’t know what else to do, maybe the dinner wasn’t enough and inviting Cathy will get a better rise from her? What is wrong with you Kane? You have never acted so desperate in your entire life; this is not who you are. You are usually calm and collected but this is just childish and immature. Yet I find myself sending for Cathy.

    Alpha Kane’s POV“You will follow me to train today, so prepare adequately” I instruct Avery, trying to hold back any form of emotion. I have been very conflicted with myself since the incident at the library. This woman brings out the absolute worst in me to the surface. Fighting this bond has made me act irrational and my new irrational plan is to make her submit after training. Maybe if she realizes she can’t defend herself without me she might submit in return for my help. The only reason I keep trying is because this connection is mutual, my wolf always feels hers calling to me. I know soon enough she will agree, she has to. If she doesn’t, I honestly don’t know what I am going to do.“Tell me when and where and I will be there” she says confidently. No hint of fear can be traced on her features. A female wolf who is so open to training? that’s rare most especially with her background. Maybe she is just putting up a front. Avery couldn’t possibly know how to fight but I did expec

Even when I am not with her my thoughts are clouded with her, my nose would long for her scent and my entire body would call to her. I have been extremely patient but how long does she want me to wait? It's been long enough, she should already accept that we are bonded because I can't deal with all of this tension. I see the way her body reacts to me, I know she wants me too. “Make her submit to you now, you have waited long enough” my wolf instructs me. I can feel his yearning. “You know that wouldn't be easy” I try to explain but my wolf is too stubborn “You will do as you're told and make her submit or I'll take control” he must really be desperate to threaten me but I understand. I'll try to reason with her one more time. I tell a maid to send for Avery, I instructed no one should come to my

It has left me weak and drained, but my resolve remains unshakable, I wasn't joking when I said I would rather die than give in to Alpha Kane. He is everything I despise, I don't care if we have this insane chemistry or if I find it hard to control myself when he is around, everything he does proves to me why he would make a terrible mate, he is arrogant, proud, annoying, and he doesn't want to let me be. It's like he doesn't understand that I need him to free me from this torment.I know he is incredibly handsome with his toned body, full dark hair, dark eyes that you could fall into and that intoxicating cedar scent that could make any wolf...It's not love it's just lust, Avery it's not love it's just lust.

    Alpha Kane's POV I am at the end of my tether. The constant rejection from Avery is pushing me to the brink of madness, it's becoming too overwhelming for me. Every ounce of my sanity is being consumed by the need to break her, to force her to accept the bond that I can no longer deny. I know she feels it too, if she could look past her ego and misplaced morals maybe she could see that being my Luna is not such a bad idea. I provide security, power, respect, wealth and much more. What else could she possibly desire that I can not provide for? Frustration boils in me like a thunderstorm that refuses to be quenched, and I decide it’s time to put an end to this defiance once and for all. I can't count the number of times I have planned to make her give in and failed. Making this woman submit to me is probably the hardest task I have ever tried to do. I hurry to the pathetic excuse of a room I confined her to, it looks just as bad if not in worse shape, the smell of the room I'm still

    Avery’s POVThe morning began like any other, strained silence, stiff greetings, and stares that scraped against my skin like tiny blades. I dressed slowly, deliberately, bracing myself for another day of pretending not to notice the glares or whispers that clung to me like a curse.But I should’ve known today would be different. Worse.It started with the sharp clang of metal on tile, followed by a shout from somewhere down the hall. Then came the hurried footsteps, too many to count, echoing through the packhouse like an approaching storm.I stepped out of my room just in time to see the Beta whispering urgently to Alpha Callum, his face pale and tense. The Alpha’s expression darkened immediately, and his eyes, cold and empty, scanned the hallway until they landed on me.I froze“You,” he barked, his voice slicing through the air. “In the hall. Now.”Confused and wary, I obeyed. Guards quickly flanked me on either side, as if I were some dangerous criminal. My heart pounded harder w

    Avery’s POVThe knock on my chamber door came just as I finished brushing my hair. I froze, my brush hovering mid-air as the door creaked open without waiting for permission. A guard stepped in, stiff and silent, before motioning for me to follow. I didn’t ask where I was being taken, there was no point. In this place, it was obvious my questions didn’t matter.The halls were cold and we walked in silence, past stern-faced servants and curious pack members who didn’t bother hiding their judgment. I kept my head high. I would not let them see me crumble.He was waiting for me in what looked like a private study, dark wood walls, a roaring fireplace, and shelves lined with books no one had touched in decades. The old Alpha Callum stood by the window, his hands clasped behind his back as if he were some noble monarch greeting a war prize. I didn’t need to be told who he was. His presence bled power… and something colder. Something decayed.He turned slowly, his gaze sweeping over me like

The once-pristine bedsheets had been slashed through as if by claws, and the headboard bore deep, angry gouges. The mirror above the dresser was cracked right through the center, and scrawled in what appeared to be red lipstick were the words: "Whore. Traitor. Unfit."My heart dropped. A sharp sting bloomed behind my eyes, but I forced myself to blink back the tears. I wouldn’t give them the satisfaction, not them, not her, not this cursed place.I stepped forward cautiously, my bare feet brushing against the soft fabric of my ruined dress. Every corner of the room screamed defiance. This wasn’t a warning, it was a declaration. I was not wel

    Avery’s POVThe journey is long, but the silence is longer.No one speaks. Not the guards. Not the driver. Not me.The carriage rattles along uneven roads, every bump jostling my body, but I barely notice. My mind is far, far away, from this damned seat, from the silk choking my skin, from the future I never chose. I stare blankly at the passing trees, watching the shadows stretch and shift across the landscape like specters, as if the forest itself mourns what I’ve become.A prisoner.Not in shackles or chains, but something worse.A prisoner of circumstance.A daughter traded like livestock. A mother who gave up her freedom to save her child. A girl who once dreamed of love… now promised to a stranger whose name she only speaks in fear.By the time the carriage creaks to a stop, dusk is bleeding into the sky. I don’t even realize we’ve arrived until the door is thrown open.“We’re here,” one of the guards grunts, offering no hand as I step down onto the cold stone.I glance up.The

Is he hurt? Is he afraid? Every possibility, every awful scenario my mind conjures feels like a blade carving deeper into my chest.

My head throbbed with every shallow breath I took, and for a brief, disoriented moment, I couldn't tell if I was dreaming or still unconscious.But then I saw it, the high ceilings, the dark stone walls, the elaborate chandelier casting flickering shadows across polished floors.I knew this place. It looked all too familiarIt was my father’s packhouse.No. No, no, no…Panic flared in my chest as I bolted upright. The plush bedding beneath me mocked the terror clawing at my throat. My limbs felt like lead, my wrists sore and bruised. I stumbled off the bed, feet unsteady, and the world spun before my vision steadied. My eyes darted around, desperate.Where was he?“My son…”The words barely made it past my lips, dry and cracked from disuse. I staggered toward the door, yanking the handle, but it was locked. I slammed my fists against the heavy wood, screaming louder this time.“Where is

The hairs on the back of my neck rise, but I force myself to smile as Lisa turns to me.“You okay?” she asks, eyes filled with concern.I nod quickly. “Yeah, just tired.”She hesitates, studying me like she knows I’m lying, but finally offers a small smile. “Get some rest, okay? Call me if you need anything.”“Thanks, Lisa. Goodnight.”Somehow I am always lucky enough to meet good people wherever I go.I push open my door, guiding my son inside.
