Chapter Three: I love You

CLAIRE's POV

When the news of the transformation rite got to the hall, the other omegas danced for joy. Everyone was excited and would not stop chirping about the ceremony that was now two days away.  

I did not understand what the fuss was about. This rite had been abandoned for years. Surely, there was a reason our ancestors wanted nothing to do with it anymore. 

What if this was also not successful? What happened to us omegas? I could imagine the double shame and ridicule we would face. We failed at doing the one thing every wolf was born with, twice. 

I refused to blossom the hope, I refused to try. I would rather sit this one out than face the disgrace all over again. 

I threw on an old loose gown as I watched the wolves chatter excitedly. Some even tried out new outfits they had never worn. It was indeed a beautiful morning. It had been a long time since the omegas had been this enthusiastic about anything. 

"File out," the matron barked out. Nobody had noticed when she arrived the hall. 

All the chatter died down in a second and everyone scurried to line up. I was to work in the food store today. 

Thirty minutes into unboxing and rearranging the trailer loads of food items, I was called out by the matron. She led me to meet a young messenger boy who stood just outside the warehouse, before leaving. 

"Claire?" He asked, disbelief in his tone. 

"That is me," I responded, wiping my sweaty palms on my dress. 

His eyes accessed me from head to toe. Then he said, "The Alpha requests your presence in the pack house this instant." 

It was then I understood his astonishment. The Alpha requesting to see an omega. It was a rare occurrence. 

"Is anything the matter?" I wondered aloud. "Did I do something wrong?"

"Given you are an omega and that is all you lot know how to do, then I guess so." He responded and walked away. 

"Do I report now?" I asked after him. 

He stopped a distance and shouted. "Yes. After I get to the pack house. I refuse to be seen with an omega." He scorned, then kept moving. 

Stupid wolf, I cursed in my head. 

I tried to sort out my jumbled thoughts. Why had Alpha Enzo requested to see me? We had never spoken before, even though he had always been extremely benevolent to me. I was sure I was not in trouble. I had done nothing wrong. But what if I had? 

Tentatively, I trudged in the direction of the pack house. Scornful eyes watched me as I went and the pack members avoided being in the same path with me. I could hear sibilant whispers as they gossiped within themselves. Some of them even got bolder and voiced out their thoughts toward me, calling me despicable names. I bowed my head, avoiding eye contact with anyone. 

I clomped to the first floor and stopped in front of the Alpha's office. Hesitantly, my knuckles tapped the wood. I had thought he had not heard and was about to knock again, until his deep voice told me to enter. 

I wiped my sweaty palms and swallowed, before pushing the double doors open. I walked in, my gaze never leaving the floor. I think there were other people in the room who froze when they saw me. 

"Come on in," his soft voice urged me.

I moved further and stopped again when I was in the middle of the big office. 

"Everyone, leave. I would like to have a word with Miss Claire here." He instructed and everyone vacated the room. 

I peered at him through my lashes. I felt all the breath leave my body when I saw his perfectly chiseled face. His hazel eyes regarded me quietly, like they could pierce into my soul. His sleeves were rolled up, threatening to rip apart as his biceps flexed. The two top buttons of his shirt were undone and I got a glimpse of his toned chest. 

By heavens, could anyone look this good?

I had seen him in the past from afar, and he did look good. But nothing beat seeing this spec of a man up close.

"Sit." He said.

I let my head process the word first. This was strange. An omega was never invited to sit and chat. 

"I... I can't..." I choked out, squeezing my palms. 

I heard his resounding footsteps before his sparkly white shoes intruded my line of vision. He held my hand and I gasped at the contact. 

What was he doing?

I tried to withdraw my hand but his grip around it only tightened. Gently, but firmly, he led me to a chair to sit. He leaned his butt on the edge of his table and I busied my eyes with his long legs clad in bright red suit trouser. 

Everything about him was clean. I felt like a spring onion, dirty and out of place in the tidy office. 

"How do you do, Claire?" Alpha Enzo asked.

I stole a glance at him before burying my face behind the curtain of my hair. He genuinely meant the question. 

"Look at me, Claire." He said, but I could not do it. Instead, my heart danced at the way my name glided off his tongue. 

When I would not raise my head, he used his index finger to tip my face up. Then he smiled. "That is better."

My throat instantly went dry. He was breathtaking, literally. 

"You never answered my question," he reminded me. 

I gulped. "I... I am alive today."

A pained expression crossed his face, but I waved it off as my imagination.

"Would you want it otherwise?" He inquired. 

I shrugged. Honestly, I was not sure. 

"Everything will turn out fine." He held my hand. "You only need to attend that transformation rite."

I looked at him in askance. "I am not sure if it will..."

He squeezed my hand. "You do not have to think so much about it. All you have to do is show up and it will all fall in place."

I knew he wished to help but he did not understand. He would never understand. He had had everything handed down to him. Everything had gone according to plan in his life. So he would not know the pain we were bound to face if we failed this test a second time. 

"H... How do you have so much hope?" I asked. 

He squatted before me, rubbing my palm in soothing patterns. He watched me, his eyes contemplating. He closed them and when he opened them again, he confessed, barely audible. "It is because I love you." 

I gawked at him. Was that even possible? What about the mate bond? 

Then it all made sense to me, why he had been extremely kind, why he had sent his sister my way and why he had ordered the men not to touch me. 

I searched within myself. I knew I felt something for him. I mean it was hard not to; the Alpha was lovable. But was it that kind of love?

"All these..." He continued. "... I did for you. I want to make you mine with everything in me. And if I have to go to the ends of the earth to achieve it, then I will."

I wanted to say something but he brushed his thumb against my lips, setting sparks within me and shutting me up effectively. 

"You do not need to say anything to me now. All I need from you..." He paused. "...is your presence at the rite. Can you please do that for me?"

His orbs peered into mine and I held his gaze. Could this be real? Alpha Enzo was giving the omegas a second chance. Because of me. Because he loved me.

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter Four: The Devil Alpha

    CLAIRE"...Because I love you... All these I did for you..."Those sweet words from Alpha Enzo reeled in my mind as I put on the red dress he had presented to me on my birthday. He had requested I wore it today, the day of the transformation rite ceremony. The long dress shimmered as I twirled, flowing down my scrawny body and hiding away all my years of sufferings. I had to admit I looked beautiful in it. It had been a very long time since I donned something nice. "...I want to make you mine..." The confession made me warm inside and I held my chest to tame my thundering heart. All my life, no one had made me feel this way. I could recall Blaire taunting me every time I smiled shyly when Alpha Enzo's name was mentioned. I thought she was being silly. But I guessed now, it all made sense. I did feel something for him, even though I was not sure it could be called love. I combed my hair, deciding to let the black bangs cascade down my shoulder to complement my exposed neckline.

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter Five: My Wolf

    CLAIRE's POVI could hear the loud gasps and the sudden but hushed whispers all around the ground filled with my pack members.I did not think these wolves would ever be anything to mine. They were all horrible. All except for two.How could anyone want an omega? Who in his right senses would leave gold and other valuable items for a useless omega? There was no way he wanted me as tribute. What the actual fuck?I could feel it, I could feel their disdain and shock at what just happened. Honestly, I was just as shocked.Did he hit his head or something? Why would he want someone like me?Well, I knew the reason. I knew the reason and he seemed to know it as well. Why else would he say such an absurd thing?Mates.I almost scoffed in disbelief.The moon goddess made us fucking mates.I repeated the word in my head countless times as if that would make the situation even more understandable.It did not help.I looked him over, suddenly everyone was forgotten as I studied the hulking, d

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter Six: Defending His Mate

    CLAIRE's POVI felt my body contort and distort. Okay that was disturbing.My limbs got stretched, hind legs lengthened, face changed and in less than a minute, I was seated in the cool grass in my birthday suit, looking a bit disoriented.“Finally, I thought you were having tea with your wolf or something.” I heard Blaire grumble beside me and I laughed.“She has a whole lot of attitude.” I said, my grin stretching even wilder.A soft growl in my head told me to shut the fuck up.“Feisty bitch.” I muttered back and Blaire chuckled before tossing me a cotton top and jeans. “As much as I like to see you naked, your mate will not appreciate others seeing you like this.”My smile dropped.Mate.My mate.Oh, shit.“Oh shit.” I repeated, suddenly all tensed and sweaty.I quickly wore the clothes she tossed at me, grimacing at how my body seemed to learn how to work anew.I looked towards the pack house, then I shivered. I really did not want to go there right now.I did not want to fac

    DOMINIK's POVKill him. Kill him now.Break his fucking neck.How dare he speak about my mate like that??Those were the thoughts in my head while I squeezed harder against the neck of the man my mate called her father. Him wheezing in pain had my wolf growling in pleasure.Kill. He seemed to tell me. Snap his neck! He echoed in my head and I was so close to doing it.“Please..”I heard her voice again.My mate.My mate with the black shiny hair, with the bright blue eyes and some kissable lips that had me wanting to pin her against the wall until those lips turned from those light pink to red. My mate.My mate who was an omega.Weak and certainly submissive to a stupor.WEAK.I did not want a weak mate. A weak mate would not compliment someone like me. I really did not want her.I could not go against the mate bond though, to want her or not. I had to keep her close to me as much as I could allow.She was going to be a burden I did not want. I could feel it.Just as much as I di

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter Eight: Kiss Me Claire

    CLAIRE's POVI clenched and unclenched my fist as I talked.The slimy bastard.He took pleasure in knowing that I knew of his reputation? A reputation that befitted a psycho? Well, I would tell him what I thought of him.“Everyone knows of your psychotic tendencies.” I ended my rant and looked at him. He had a wide grin on his handsome as hell face, his eyes sparkly.I wanted to lick his lips.Oh shit.This mate business was so not for me.“Good, I like that you know of me.” He leaned in and I had to hold my breath so I would not try to taste his scent with the tip of my lips. I tried to appear as nonchalant as I could as he leaned in to whisper in my ear. “You know how I protect my people and what I do to my enemies. It would serve you well to know what I can do to you should you try anything funny with me.”“I don't even know you. I doubt I would like to try anything with you.” I muttered, ignoring the heat in my core.“I am your mate, your alpha and protector.” He scoffed. “We

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter Nine: Welcome To My Home

    DOMINIK's POVHoly fuck.She smelled so fucking good, it was all I could think of, it was all I could scent, it was all I could do to not wlose control and claim my mate right there and right then.And I would have claimed her even if she did not want it. She did not. I could feel it in the way she stiffened, in the little bursts of breath that came out of her lips.I tried not to be too annoyed, or hurt by that.My wolf, on the other hand, was in a killing mood.Claim.Claim.Claim what is yours. The horny dog seemed to scream at me every second Claire’s lovely scent perfumed the air.Reluctantly, very reluctantly, I licked down her neck, giving little nips and licks as I went. I pulled up the hem of her flimsy cotton top, showing the most perfect shape of breast on a human…wolf.I only knew I had stared reverently at it for too long when I heard the low growl that came from her throat and I chuckled.Such an impatient, definitely not submissive omega. I had never heard of a breed l

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter Ten: Even if it killed me

    CLAIRE's POVI knew I was probably not going to be accepted. I was probably even going to be treated worse than I was at Enzo’s pack. I knew all of that but it still hurt, I still felt that pang in my heart when I saw the hostile looks I got from the Black Claws pack members, Dominik’s family. It hurt and I hated that it hurt.My wolf was baring her fangs at anyone that dared to dye across their boundaries.I did not know where it came from but I was not afraid, maybe it was the final awakening of my wolf but I finally decided that I was not going to be taken lightly or treated like trash anymore, omega or notI did not know how possible it was that word had already spread that I was Domink’s mate and that I was also an omega.All of their whispers, I heard it all.“Crazy bitch.”“She has got some guts, daring to want to mate with our alpha.”“Omega slut.”I heard it all but I held up my chin.I did not expect Domink to take my side against his pack members.The bastard had made me

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter Eleven: You Forced me?

    CLAIRE's POVI groaned and turned, looking for the softest, freshest spot to lay in, but then as I turned, rays of sunlight hit my eyes and I groaned.Someone put it off!Take it away!I turned again but it seemed since the moon goddess had abandoned me… the goddess of the sun had also proclaimed vengeance on me.I frowned, a bit confused. Why did I think the moon goddess had abandoned me?Also, something was wrong…I could not quite place my hand on it.I took a small, careful sniff.Too peaceful, too quiet.What the fuck?How come I was not hearing the mistress from hell snap her dreaded whip at me?My hands instinctively moved across the bed and my frown deepened. Too soft, way too soft and bouncy for it to be my bed. Where the fuck was—Oh fucking goodness!!My eyes snapped open and I jerked to a sitting position as all the memories from the day before rushed into my head.Instinctively, my hands went in front of me in a defensive position. Ready to fight or hurt if need be.But

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter 262

    CLAIRE's POVAs I stared at my reflection in the mirror, a pair of blue eyes stared back at me. I admired myself, mostly because I was in disbelief. Never in my life, would I have imagined that I would be adorned with this dress.As I stood before the full-length mirror, I took in the sight before me. I was wearing a stunning wedding dress, the most beautiful thing I had ever worn in my life. The fabric was pure white, soft and silky to the touch, with a subtle shimmer that made it seem almost luminous in the dimly lit room.The bodice was fitted,

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter 261

    CLAIRE's POVMy mind was racing, my eyes were fixed on Cora, who had now morphed into a dragon. Her large glass green orbs found me, and she roared."You finally showed yourself, almighty goddess. What are you going to do? Save your mate, friends, or loyal supporters? Or watch them die by my hands," she chuckled.I could tell that she was taunting me, but for what reason? My eyes trailed to Dominik, who was crouched down on the floor, bus body covered in blood.

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter 260

    CLAIRE's POVJust like Luis and Dominik had anticipated, a war was about to break out. We had received a letter from none other than Cora herself. She was leading the faction that was against me into war. In the letter, she told Dominik to give me up to her, but naturally, he refused, and so we began preparing for war.The men that had come to see me, saying that I was their goddess, brought more of their faction to Dominik's small cottage. Their numbers were significantly much, and I was glad that we had so many people, willing to fight on our side.

    CLAIRE's POVHow had it all started? I could not tell. The moment I left Dominik's side, I rushed out of the pack house, to aid the rest of his men in battle as their cries were getting louder and louder. But then, I was ambushed. The moment I stepped outside, multiple arrows flew towards me, piercing my flesh.It was a precise, and calculated plan. The enemy had anticipated me, walking out of the pack house and chose to act quickly. Whoever was leading them, must have been very smart. Was it Cora?With the poisonous arrows dulling my senses, I cou

    DOMINIK's POV"What?" I questioned as my eyes trailed to Claire, who was standing right beside me."Does your shoulder hurt?"She shook her head. "I assume that the tracking spell has worked off, the tattoo is even gone."I grimaced, unsure of whether or not she was fine. Claire looked at me and gave me a pat on the back."Don't worry

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter 257

    CLAIRE's POVThe party was rather cheerful with people dancing, and some cheering. Drinks were poured and everyone was having a good time. I sat right beside Dominik, my arm wrapped around his. I was reluctant to leave his side, and I could tell that he felt the same way. My eyes occasionally kept wandering the diamond that now sat on my fingers.Everything still felt like a dream. Had Dominik really appointed me as his Luna? And even went as far as proposing to me. My hear felt like it would melt from the amount of happiness I was feeling. I nuzzled my head on Dominik's arm as a smile crossed my lips.

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter 256

    CLAIRE's POVThe sound of distant chattering jolted me awake from my deep sleep. My eyes creaked open, and they landed on an unfamiliar bedside table. This was not my room. Where was I? I tried to move, but my movements were restricted. Curious, I looked down to see large, bulky arms, wrapped around my waist.Then, I remembered.I was in Dominik's room.Everything began to come back slowly. The moment we had gotten back from the palace, Domi

  • Claimed by the Devil Alpha   Chapter 255

    CLAIRE's POVI sat in the carriage, right beside Dominik. The atmosphere between us was silent, but it was not an uncomfortable silence. My mind was far lost in thought and I assumed it was the same for Dominik.I had greatly underestimated my father's hatred for Dominik. To think that he would call the guards to remove his own daughter from the palace she is living in came as a shock to me.When the guards grabbed me by my arms and pulled me away from Vera and my stepsisters, I could not do anything. I could only stare at them. They all had a worr

    CLAIRE's POV"Your Highness..." The guards spoke up the moment I approached the gate.Their eyes trailed away from the opposing figure beside me. Dominik did not mind their various gaze and kept a blank expression. My arms were linked with his, and my heart was racing inside my chest.I could only imagine how my father would react the moment he saw me, hand in hand with the notorious devil alpha. The guards did not stop us as we walked into the palace grounds. I was thankful for that, as I did not wa
