Chapter 8~ Pretend mate

Gianna.

I’m still filled with apprehension as I step into the shower cubicle. My heart is stuck in my throat as I listen for footsteps heading this way but I hear none.

When I'm sure Alpha Rex doesn't have ulterior motives, I switch on the shower and let the warm water cascade on my body. It soothes me as it washes away the filth on my body.

I sigh, raising my head as water pours down on my face.

The last time I had a warm shower was before I shifted into my wolf. After I shifted and they discovered I was an Omega, they shunned me and sent me to the attic.

I used to bathe in a big basin after sneaking in some water when everyone was sleeping or early in the morning but it was icy cold. I was an outcast in my own father's pack.

I grab the shower gel and lather my body with it. It smells so good that I can't help but take a deep breath. It smells like Alpha Rex. A minty scent that incorporates into his natural sandalwood and musky-woodsy scent.

My mind drifts to what happen

    Rex. I watch as Gianna skims through the contents of the document I just about put together when she was in the bathroom. If someone asked me if I know what I’m doing, the answer is no. I have no idea why I suddenly decided to attend the hunt today. Or why I brought this tiny little thing to my penthouse and got her dressed in clothes I had prepared for my future Queen, which surprisingly turned out to be her size like they were meant for her. Or why I came up with the stupid idea of being pretend mates. My father doesn’t bug me about finding my mate anymore, yet he still holds on to the throne like it’s his lifeline. For fucksakes, the dude is old and should be enjoying his life with his fellow old folks. I am the only Alpha heir above twenty whose father hasn’t handed over the mantle to. Yet I do all the fucking work. But still... that's not a valid reason for me to come up with such a contract. I fold my arms across my chest and look at the little wolf seated across me. Sh

  • Alpha Rex's Dangerous Addiction   Chapter 10~ Meeting the family

    Gianna. The ride to Alpha Rex’s pack is more comfortable now that we’ve sort of interacted. He still frightens the daylights out of me but knowing he was also rejected has made me lower my guard a little. Well, he didn’t specify who did the rejecting but he mentioned that I am like him which means he met his mate but for some unknown reason, they split up. Either way, one of them rejected the other. Even though this doesn’t make any sense, why would anyone reject the Alpha King? Regardless, I sort of felt some kind of kinship with him knowing we went through the same thing. I still don’t know if the rumours of his sex addiction and ruthless killing are true though. He hasn’t tried to force me into anything so it’s safe to say he was saying the truth, all those rumours about him are not true. He is cold and distant but I feel like there’s more to him than meets the eye. My wolf strangely feels calm around him, probably because he helped us when rejecting Alpha Mason. It's strang

    Rex. “Son, come to my office, I want to have a word with you,” Dad says and I frown, knowing he’s about to bombard me with questions that I'm not ready to answer. This man is far sharper than any man I know. It will take a lot to convince him that Gianna is my mate but so far he didn’t look suspicious so I wonder what he wants to talk about. I stand up, glancing at Gianna and stroking the side of her head affectionately. “I’ll be back. Let me talk to the old man for a bit.” I say and I smirk when her face flushes to an adorable pink. She’s so cute and innocent. I love how every little thing can make her blush. Oh, how I would love to taint that innocence. To let her have a taste of sin... to let her crave it so much she wouldn't blush so hard as she boldly begs me to take her over and over again. Our eyes meet and I stare at her for far too long than I intended to. Again, I'm lost in her beauty. Her blue eyes... her pink lips... her smooth milky skin... they were all made to p

  • Alpha Rex's Dangerous Addiction   Chapter 12~ Alone

    Gianna. Night has fallen and I’m seated at the dining table with Alpha King Charles and the former Alpha Queen. My heart is in my throat and I’m uncomfortable because Rex is nowhere to be seen. They are kind people and very welcoming but I still don’t feel at home yet. I can’t believe Rex left without even saying goodbye. It’s been hours and he’s not back and I don’t know what to do with myself. “Eat up, Gianna. Rex has left the territory because of a threat. He will be back soon.” Alpha Charles says helpfully and I force a smile at him as I swirl my fork in the spaghetti on my plate. “You should have sent someone else. How can he leave his mate here alone when she’s new to this place? Is whatever he is chasing more important than his mate?” Grandma Ruby scolds and I swallow deeply. We are not real mates. So obviously whatever he’s chasing is more important than me but why do I feel bad? Alpha King Charles sighs. “It must be something serious.” I tune them out as I focus o

    Mason. I chug down a bottle of whiskey for the umpteenth time today and fling it across the room harshly. It lands on the wall and breaks into a thousand pieces, scattering the pieces of glass around my office but I don’t give a damn. I haven’t been myself since yesterday. That little timid Omega dared to reject me and I was forced to accept the rejection by the cruel Alpha who decided to attend the hunt when he was not wanted. How dare she reject me? How dare she humiliate me in front of my pack members and so many Alphas? I didn’t know they were having an affair behind my back all this time. Come to think of it. They must have planned for him to come and threaten me so he can get her from here. How could she cheat on me when I promised her the world? I told her I would make her my Luna soon. I told her I loved her. No, she knew I loved her. Her body was all I wanted and I couldn’t get tired of her once I started fucking her. I explained clearly to her that I didn’t love Sophi

  • Alpha Rex's Dangerous Addiction   Chapter 14~ Jealous

    Gianna. It feels like a thousand years have passed since I saw Rex. I have been trying to keep myself busy by training with Lily but I can't seem to get him off my mind. What exactly is he playing at? He brought me here to be his fake mate and then he left. His father is now starting to doubt if we are real mates. I thought becoming Alpha king was important to him. How will he do that if his father discovers our secret? The Alpha King makes commentaries about how Rex is not behaving like someone who just found his fated mate during dinner but Grandma Ruby would deflect him by changing the subject. Regardless of his suspicions, he's organised a welcome ceremony for me tomorrow. I'm going to be introduced to the pack as the Luna but I wonder what Rex’s absence will look like to the pack. They will probably think I'm not that important to him. The respect the few that I've met are giving me because I'm associated with the royals will stop and I'll start being bullied again.

  • Alpha Rex's Dangerous Addiction   Chapter 15~ His flirting

    Gianna. I avert his gaze and proceed to walk towards the entrance, burying the sting in my chest. I’ll just ignore him and pretend he doesn’t exist. Why did he bring me here when he already has someone he loves? Is it a forbidden relationship or something? I haven’t seen him in days and this is what he shows me. I know we are a fake couple but I expected him to at least respect me. But who am I to say anything? I don’t think anyone can ever take me seriously, especially a future King. Unlike the beautiful woman in his arms, I’m like a speck of dust on his shoe. It hurts terribly and I don’t know why, nor do I understand this sour feeling in my heart. I haven’t spent much time with him so what is this possessive feeling in my chest? And what's with my wolf wanting to be close to him? He's literally a stranger. Perhaps I'm feeling this way because my wolf has taken a liking to him. I blame him for being present when I rejected Alpha Mason. This is why she's attached to him. My e

    Rex. The rogue had misled us. It seems my Alpha command couldn’t work on him or he had a spell on him that made him immune to my authority. After hours of torture, he finally gave in and gave us a location where we can find the one who’s been sending the threats. Finding this person was important. Especially now that he had mentioned Gianna. I didn’t bring her here for her to suffer again. I wanted her to have a new life and at least be happy. A threat on her was as good as a threat on me and I wanted to find the mastermind by hook or by crook. We followed the rogue but what I didn’t expect was for us to get lost in the wilderness. The asshole dared to trick me into going into the dark forest. We found out a little later when he suddenly escaped and due to the vines and close trees, we couldn’t find him. It also rained so his scent got washed away. Thus, we spent days trying to track him but to no avail. We did actually find him this morning but his eyes, tongue and heart wer

    Rose. “I met my mate too last night,” I say as we walk into our room. The high-ranked werewolves have bigger rooms in the packhouse. Reece, being a Gamma, has a big room. There’s a large bed in the centre, a small living area on the right side, a small kitchen and a bathroom area. It's like a mini apartment. We just came back from our mating ceremony. The Alpha officiated the ceremony. After deciding to get mated right away, a small ceremony was quickly arranged for us by the Alpha Queen. I was ok with not having a ceremony but the Queen insisted saying it was important. And she was right. It felt good to say our vows and mark each other in front of everyone. I proudly held my man and sank my teeth into his neck, showing the whole pack that he belongs to me. No one will ever question my relationship with him because the whole pack witnessed us getting bonded. We are now mates for life... one heart, one soul and one mind. Reece stops when he hears my words and looks down at m

    Rose. A stab of pain shoots through my chest and I take a step back. My heart squeezes painfully, feeling like it's been ruthlessly ripped out and run along a grater, shredding it to pieces. It turns out my happiness only lasted a few hours. I was so delusional. Did I think I could really keep him? I watch as Reece stills as Amber clings to him, his eyes wider than saucers. Didn't he say he would reject his mate? Were those empty promises? My eyes turn blurry and I dash into the packhouse. The only place I can be right now is my room. Being outside, the full moon will be a painful reminder of what I’m going through. Even though I've run away, a part of me wants Reece to run after me. To choose me over Amber... But she’s his soulmate. Will he be able to resist her? I don't know anyone who’s ever tried and succeeded. I spend the next few minutes sitting at the foot of the bed. My heart is banging violently against my ribcage and I keep glancing at the door. Why isn’

    Rose. Weeks later and I can’t seem to take that night off my mind. The way he touched me… the way he kissed me… Oh goddess, I can still feel his tongue on my pussy, his fingers sliding in and out of me and I desperately wish it was his cock. Why did I run away? He was right there, ready to be with me and I fucked it all up. So what if he has a mate? A little play wouldn’t hurt, right? It would. Because my feelings for Reece are so intense, even I don’t understand what I’m feeling. We’ve been meeting at the training grounds but I’ve been avoiding him like the coward I am. I’m afraid that I may start to hope for something that cannot be. He’s not mine. He belongs to another… but why do I feel this strong pull towards him? I'm drawn to him like a moth to a flame... my thoughts are filled with his face and I dream about him all the time. I’m seated on a bench in the gym as I watch him train. With male warriors, thank the goddess. Reece seems to have put that bitch, A

    Reece. Why are we women so complicated? One short-haired feisty girl to be exact. She’s been on my mind ever since she had my dick down her throat. I’ve been thinking about her… secretly wanting her. I did ask her to be mine but I was rejected mercilessly. Even though she broke my heart, I haven't stopped loving her. She consumes my thoughts every day and all I want is to make her mine. But she won't give me a chance. Heck, she won't even let me go close to her. She's been on guard ever since I asked her to be my girlfriend. Avoiding me as though I am a disease. To be honest, I did notice that Amber was flirting with me. I was about to push her away when I saw Rose glowering at us. To think she was jealous made my heart soar so I let Amber be to make Rose jealous. But it seems I had shot myself in the foot. My feisty kitten was so angry that she pushed me away and now wants nothing to do with me. When I heard there would be an outing tonight, I was ecstatic. Any opportuni

    Rose. My eyes flash as intense anger rips through me. How could Reece let another woman touch him like that? Is there something going on between them? “Excuse you, Rose. Which man are you talking about? Don’t tell me it's Reece. He hasn’t met his mate yet,” Amber taunts, folding her arms across her chest and I feel like closing the gap between us to rip her throat out. Her voice irks me. Her whole presence gets on my nerves and yet, I’ve only been in the same space as her for a few hours. A low growl leaves my lips and I’m about to reply when I suddenly come back to my senses. I meet Reece’s eyes and his confused expression makes my stomach knot. What the hell am I doing? What right do I have to act like a jealous mate? With a pounding heart, I turn and dash out of there like it’s the plague, feeling mortified. Oh no… I just made a fool out of myself. What was I thinking? The wind blows through my eyes and it stings. Why didn’t I notice how windy it was until now? I’m runnin

    Rose. The worst thing that can happen to a shifter is falling in love with someone who is not their mate. The fear that them meeting their destined is just a full moon away… the fear that the bond will be stronger than their feelings for you. This has always led to many heartbreaks and that’s why it’s a nightmare for someone who falls in love before meeting their mate. Werewolves in particular have been blessed with mates by the moon goddess. Once an adult werewolf finds their mate, they become one with that person. This bond is so strong that many have failed to defy it... thus, it is not advised to date before meeting one's mate to avoid unnecessary pain. This is my current situation. It’s different for others who fall in love and then later discover they are mates. I had met Reece during several full moons, and the mate bond didn’t click in. So I know for sure that he doesn’t belong to me and it sucks because I’ve fallen for him, hard. The pain that is usually feared is in

    Hailey. I can proudly say I’m spoilt rotten by my mate. We’ve been at the penthouse for a week now. And during this time, Zane kept pampering me. He showered me with lots of love and care, making me so happy that my jaws hurt from too much smiling. He would take me out for dinner or lunch. And then we would go site seeing or watch a movie. He would get me whatever little things I want. Back at the penthouse, he would cook and do the dishes. He would step into the shower with me and help me wash. He practically worshipped the ground I walked on and I’ve never felt more special. Who knew I would get myself a man who looks at me the way one would look at a delicious cake? He makes me feel wanted… desired… craved. In his arms, I feel like a woman. I can't imagine I almost made myself a miserable woman by getting mated to the wrong guy. Happiness is free as long as you find the right guy. It is possible to be the most loved woman in the world. Zane has shown me that. The way

    Zane. I was almost late. Something had happened in the past few days. A certain pack was attacked by rogues so we had to offer help. This was why I didn't immediately chase after Hailey when I found out about her mating ceremony. I didn’t expect the war to take several days. By the time I was returning home, it was already the date for Hailey’s mating ceremony. I was afraid that I was too late and I had lost her. What if she had already moved on and fallen in love with Alpha Sebastian? My heart was in my throat but luckily, the Alpha King and His Queen were on their way to attend so I hopped into the car with them. I told them my plan of stopping the mating ceremony and they were in full support of my decision. We were indeed a bit late and the ceremony had already commenced when we crossed the Eastern pack's territory. My blood boils as I glare at Alpha Sebastian who is glaring back at me. He was about to sink his teeth into my mate! If I was a minute too late, she would

    Hailey. The dreaded day has finally come. I keep staring at my phone, hoping for a miracle even though I know Zane wouldn’t call me. He’s never contacted me since I left the Central pack. But I know he knows the mating ceremony is today. An invitation was sent to The Alpha King, Rex Cooper and his mate, Alpha Queen Gianna Walter. Since Zane is his Beta, he definitely knows I’m getting mated to someone else today. I won't lie. It hurts that he hasn't bothered to reach out to me. Does he hate me so much that he wants nothing to do with me? Has he already moved on? Or found someone else? My stomach twists and turns at the thought. I regret accepting Zane's rejection. What was I thinking? Now I'm stuck. What good is a position of power if I won't be happy? Perhaps I should just run away and become a rogue. Sebastian promised to let me study medicine in the human town after we are mated and I’ve given him an heir. He sure is considerate but he’s still not the one for me. I just
