A BETROTHAL TO OLD HIM

“Pack up.” My stepmother announced, carelessly dropping her tea mug on a wooden coffee table. The content spilled, causing a dark pigment on the table. “Your new owner is coming to pick you up.” "A new owner? What do you mean? I don't understand.” I staggered back a bit almost colliding with the brown accent chair Dad used to sit on during his sick days, sweat beads beginning to form on my forehead. Why was going on now?! Don't tell me they want to let me off now?! "Hold your peace, or rather hold in your breath. I'll make you understand now in a jiffy.” My stepsister, Ama, interrupted curtly. I turned to face her, my heart quite pounding heavily against my chest with sweat starting to form on my back, even my stomach churned. I knew Ama’s never had anything good to say. Her expression was as annoying as always, even just as she began to speak. “You... you are getting betrothed to Sir Brandon today! Tada!” Brandon?! What?! The most promiscuous man in the whole of River Heart Pack?! My legs shivered, and a sharp pang of pain grabbed my temples, with my heart setting about, skipping in million beats. "What do you mean by that? Why am I getting married to Sir Brandon?!” I rubbed my sweaty palms on my long flowery faded skirts and wiped off the perspiration gathering on my forehead. “Is all I am to the both of you just an item that can be sold off at any time of your choice?!” They treated me so less, for I didn't have any status in the Pack, not even a status as low as an Omega, but I didn't know it was to this extent, “I'm not a merchandise, and I refuse to be sold off like I mean nothing!" The idea of being married off to someone older than most in the Pack— even my own father— irked me. What the heck?! I'm not going to be a good girl this time round! Ama rose from her seat, and came to place a hand on my left shoulder. “You can not escape this, baby girl. Your fate has been written, and you cannot change it now, unfortunately for you!” I pushed Ama’s hand off of my shoulder and faced my stepmother, my eyes subtly pleading. “Tell me what she's saying is not true, Stepmother.” It seemed as though Ama was not ready to take a break yet, as she sighed and wore on her face a mischievous smirk, “Ow! don't feel too miserable! Think of this as a lucky chance, yeah?!” “You don't have a mate, neither have you connected with your wolf, yet someone is willing to have you! Isn't that so beautiful?!” Ama’s words and actions had become so cliché that I was no longer bothered, so I returned my attention to my stepmother, grabbing her hand this time, “You can't do this to me, ma'am! I've served you and did everything you want all my life. Please, don't do this to me!” My stepmother jerked off my hands, violently, as if they were plagued. "You sure have grown some gut! Touch me one more time and that would be the end of your filthy hands! Go and pack up your things now!” I stumbled over the glass center table at the impact of the push, hitting my back on the cold, hard floor, and spraining my knees. Pleading would not change a thing; I should have known. With tears looming this time, and my chest tightening, I picked up myself and tried again. I needed to fight— fight to regain my right! "This is my home, stepmother!"Related chapters

✓ RIYA "This is my home, stepmother!” My stepmother snickered. "Indeed." “I've never chosen anywhere else as home than here, stepmother! I've lost both parents for heaven's sake! Please, stepmother. I promise to be at my best…” My voice cracked, and I swallowed. “Please…” Ama shut her book close and stared at me with mirth for a moment, "Damn girl, I thought you were a smart little one. This place, this house,” She closed in the entire house with her hands; like calling me to snap out of my illusion, “Here has never been your home, darling!” Then, she chuckled, and said after returning to her book. “And, at least use some less goddamn approach. You should know begging would do you no good.” “She thinks I'm buying it.” My stepmother scoffed. “Have you forgotten father's last words?!” My father's last words found their way to my head and hot tears filled my eyes to the brim. ‘Riya is an irreplaceable gem, and I hope you wouldn't have a reason to detach her from this

✓ Riya “Leave me alone! I refuse to be a pawn in your chess game!” My body shook, and I was filled with rage, so much so that the intensity made my very heart burn. Asides from my resistance, and acting as though I was tough, I was hoping my stepmother would have a change of heart and let me stay. Resilience breeds victory, right? “Keep quiet, you fool!” My stepmother sprang to her feet, her voice shaking with frustration. She had clearly had enough, but I wasn't finished. “No! I will not be quiet!” I stared into her eyes, the forever threatening tears in my eyes now pouring down my face with no restraints. “You both need to calm down. Child, you need—” Brandon began to speak, but I was too angry— angry at how useless I was to them— than to give him a chance for a piece of his mind. “Shut it, old man! Your opinion is not in any way needed here!” Immediately the words were out, the husky bouncer, whom Brandon had came in with, rushed at me and landed a punch on my face. I g

✓ Riya “She's waking up!” A distant voice called as I regained consciousness, my head banging and my throat parched. I slowly opened my eyes, my blurry sight sharpening into a very handsome man with dark wavy hair, the most beautiful grey eyes, and the most perfect features I've ever seen. And, also a woman with an almost identical features hovering over me. My eyes darted around the room, my breathing quickening. There was no escape. Brandon's men had caught me. I was in his den now, and I was doomed. I stiffened, my body turning cold. I started to sit, but winced and gripped the sheet tightly due a sharp pain that shot through my body. “Stay back! You'll worsen your wounds!” The man shouted, and I was surprised at his outburst. But, perhaps he was a nice one. “Please, can you let me go?! I'll give you anything you want. Please, huh?” With tears threatening to fall, I wriggled up into a sitting position, ignoring the pain this time. The man glanced at the woman, shock e

✓ Riya While I looked around the room, my eyes caught a figure and I gasped, my hands flying to my mouth. ___ Nathaniel was there, grinning from ear to ear. He approached me, and my breathing set about getting caught in my throat with every step he took forward. “Wandering around, young lady? Or are you trying to flee?” He reached me and pinned me to the wall, his hands held up in a Kabedon. He leaned in closer, staring into my eyes, his breath warm on my skin. He saved no room for escape, even if I wanted to. My eyes locked with his gray eyes, with my heart thumping so loudly I could almost hear it, and then I was struck with something- like a tiny spark at the back of my head. Maybe not, maybe more than just a spark. Like a volcano, erupting and finding its way into my loud heart. I tore my gaze from his eyes, and they landed on his rosy lips. Then, without much thinking- like under a huge hypnotism- I kissed him, and surprisingly, he kissed me back- more intensely. Wh

✓ Nathaniel My mind flashed back to the wounded image of Riya on the ground, and my body shook with anger. I had watched Riya in her unconscious state, and I knew she had gone through so much. Her bruised and rough hands were of someone who had spent quite a long time doing hard chores. Her skin was tanned, as though she’d lived under the sun all her life. So, seeing these people hurt Riya made me extremely angry that I wanted to end their existence. My grip tightened on Brandon's neck, and although I knew he was almost dying, my grip on him didn't loosen. My wolf was seething with revenge and was feeling blood lust, and that he needed was for Brandon to die to quench the thirst. “You can go tell your regrets to your ancestors when I'm done with you!” I growled. “No one touches my woman and leaves in one piece.” “She is not your woman!” A lady with a strong resemblance to Riya screamed, cutting me off. I turned sharply to face her, my marbles losing at her statement

✓ Nathaniel "Everyone, stop moving!" The man pointed the gun at Riya's head and even the sight of it, made my torso shake with fury. “Release him now or I would burst her brain open!” He shouted, moving closer to where Riya was. My gaze stayed on Riya for a minute, and I could tell that I hadn't seen anyone as scared in my entire existence. She looked utterly terrified as she wrapped her arms around Maria, and drew closer to her, even almost syncing with my sister's body. My heart ached badly, but I had to deal with the current pest. My eyes narrowed- even at his boldness, and my wolf danced at the consequences that would followed suit. I summoned and merged with my wolf, while locking eyes with the fool, yellow flecks dancing in my irises. Suddenly, like being hypnotized, he began to tremble, and the hand with which he held the gun kicked off trembling terribly, while turning towards his right temple. He struggled immensely to control himself, grunting loudly, an

✓ RiyaMy gaze swept over the overly sized room which I presently lived in, and I just couldn't believe that I had become one who now lived in luxury. All I could think of was the situation that led me to where I was now. It's been a couple of months and I haven't wrapped my head around the new happenings in my life. While I was lost in my thoughts, a knock landed on my door, jolting me to my feet. Even after staying here for months, I was still scared of every little thing. What if they found out that I wasn't what Nathaniel had portrayed me to be? The sound of the knock on my door again finally took me out of my trance, and I dragged myself to the door, opening it to reveal the face of my maid, Lily, who I had come to really like a lot. However, she looked so scared at the moment. "What is wrong, Lily? You look like you've just encountered a ghost." I chuckled, trying to lighten the mood. "Oh, your highness. It is not my wish to look this way too." "So, who has forced the str

His father was the Beta of Nathaniel's father, Alpha Fenrir.However, Howard Moonriver began to harbor hatred within his heart, because he wasn't elected as a Beta, instead of Beta Thane— Nathaniel's childhood friend— after Nathaniel took the throne, but was only given the position as the Head of the Pack elders. “Take him away now!” I commanded. “You'll regret ever sending me away for the rest of your life!” “Says a man who's about to spend the rest of his life in a cold cell! I order you to take him away immediately.” Nathaniel replied to him in my stead. The guards tried to drag him out, but he continued to dodge them, and didn't stop speaking, “You can never escape it! You're not fit to be a Luna!” “Tell that to the walls in the cell.” I scoffed, although the words slowly, but deeply cut into
