Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter One Hundred and Twelve
Thane had carried me all the way to the car, not minding the stares we were getting; I was still sore, and I needed more than hours to heal.The smile on my face disappeared when I saw Bailey."Alpha,” she says, addressing him and pretending like I wasn’t there. “I am glad to see you are all set; I didn’t expect you to bring her along.”“You will refer to her as the Luna, or my mate, Elder.”Bailey’s eyes finally met mine; she looked young, as if in her early twenties; she had dark hair cut into a bulb framing her tiny face; her eyes were the only unsettling thing about her; never had I seen her look more human than she did now in the brown elegant dress. I once believed that the elders had lived so long that they had all turned cold and numb to natural feelings, but I had been wrong. Bailey had a ‘thing’ for Thane, and it wasn’t shocking; Thane was capable of making a girl weak in the knees—even very ancient ones too.“Luna, we haven’t officially met,” she says, and I remembered vivi

I never thought of myself as beautiful, and maybe he was just saying that out of courtesy.“I... I will show you around,” Felix says as if in loss of words, and Thane gives a nod. I knew Thane didn’t really need a tour; he knew his way around the packhouse; maybe it was more for my benefit.The pack members stopped to stare every time we passed by, bowing as a sign of respect, that was more welcoming than I expected, seeing as Thane had killed their Alpha. They must have hated Slade.Felix talked about everything—from the painting on the wall to the rooms and who they belonged to.“This part of the packhouse belongs to the commander and high- rank,” Felix droned on. I only caught half of what he had said.“I think I would take over from here,” a woman—not just any woman, but Bailey says. I had been lost in thought; I didn’t realize her heading towards us. “I am Elder Bailey,” she introduced as if Felix didn’t know that already.“Welcome back Elder.” He responds.“You could leave us no

Thane was in a red cloak; his amber eyes seemed a shade darker. I hadn’t realized how tall and intimidating he was till now; there was something about him that was... Threatening.I had this feeling that something bad was about to happen. Maybe it had to do with the fact that Thane, who I had shared the same room with for the past months, hadn't even stared at me once; I might as well have been invisible. I could sense the aura around him, forcing my wolf to bow in submission. Tonight he was indeed different.Bailey led us to the underground structures that had good resemblance to a cave. All the while, I couldn't shake away that feeling that something was off. I was about to walk forward, but Axels’ hand on my shoulder restrained me.“What?” I questioned.“We wait here,” Axel informed me.Bailey and Thane walked forward, leaving us behind, her hand wrapped around his, and my chest tightened. They stopped in the middle of the room.“Alpha Thane of the Nightshade pack, you’ve met all th

One by one, the pack members went down on their knees at the sight of Thane with the crown on his head. He was in nothing but the red robe, yet he looked intimidating as ever. He was an epitome of pure power. He came to a stand on the Dias, Bailey by his side, just about where I was supposed to be.“Today a new king emerges, chosen by the moon. He gives you an option for each and every member of this pack. Knowing your Alpha is dead, would you return back to the Nightshade pack, as it had been, or would you prefer a new leader elected to rule this pack?” Bailey presented.Commander Felix walked forward.“If I may, my king,” he began with a bow. “The Newblood pack could run into total poverty if not presented with a good leader with influence, and we have none of that. We agree to become a part of the Nightshade pack, as it had been before the split.”“And do you all agree to that?” Bailey questioned.There was a chorus of yesses, almost like they had planned it out.“We would become o

“You love me?” I asked; I couldn’t believe he had said those words.“Yes, I do. I love you, and I am obsessed over you.“You never did need me... at least not to claim the crown,” “Every single day I wonder why I took you; maybe I always knew what I felt for you, but I hid it, Riley. I hid it from you, from Axel, and from myself. Even if I had managed to convince the pack, my father, and the elders that you were my mate, I knew I could never deceive the moon goddess, and Axel didn’t even know that,” Thane says.“Yet you choose me.”“I fell for you, just the same way you did me.”“I love you too, Thane, for now and forever,” I said, and he smiled, lifting me up so I could kiss his lips.“Maybe you could show me just how much you love me,” he says, and I knew just how to do that.~Waking up in Thane’s arms was completely different. I felt complete; I had never felt this happy my whole life, and staring at this fallen angel before me, I let myself accept it, accept the fact that he wou

My life felt like a dream come true.I couldn’t believe he had admitted that he loved me; a part of me had been ready to live without it. I was ready to punish myself with the one-sided love. Never in my life had I been this happy, not with Ryker, not with anybody, and... Sometimes, good things like this don’t last. But I was determined to fight for what we had and I was glad to know I won’t be fighting alone.We had returned to the Nightshade pack, and it felt different, maybe because I was returning to this place as the Queen Luna, or maybe because I knew that I had found my other part.The Nightshade pack had become one of the biggest packs in the world, and with the workforce doubled, many other packs were wary of this kind of growth. There was a meeting taking place in a few hours, the first ever meeting that I would be attending; this time it won’t be Beatrix taking my place, but unfortunately Bailey was coming with us for whatever reason Thane thought she should. I, on the othe

The aura in the room from every Alpha was almost unbearable.I could only recognize two of the Alphas present, Trent and, of course, Ryker. I couldn’t believe I had forgotten about him, and I never did bother to ask Thane if he had been released. It was safe to say that I had moved on from him, and now when I stared at him, I feel nothing. No anger, no pain, no regret. If he hadn’t treated me the way he did, I would never had met Thane..Everyone rose to their feet when Thane and I walked in, and we took out seats at the head of the table. Bailey stood a good distance behind us.Most of the Alphas were present with their Luna and Beta.“I hear you all would like to speak to me,” Thane questions, going straight to the point.“Yes, this is a dire matter." One of the Alpha’s says. “It has to do with the land and territories which once belonged to the New Blood Packs.”“What about it?” Thane asks.“We wonder if those territories could be split to widen the neighbouring packs.”“And why s

~~Riley, meet me in my room now.Mom....That was all the letter said. A maid had dropped by to pass me the written note clearly from my mother. I wondered why she wanted to see me.I quickly got dressed and headed for my mother’s.The door to her apartment had been left wide open, and so I walked in, slamming the door shut after I did."Mom,” I called, walking into the apartment. “Mom, I saw the letter,” I called out again.Finally I saw her; she sat on one of the cushions, tears streaming down her eyes. I rushed towards her.“Mom, what’s wrong?” I asked.“Riley”"Yes, I am here, mom. What happened?”“Seat down with me, would you?” she asked.I stared at her, puzzled. Still I sat.“Riley, I want to talk to you, and all I need you to do is listen to me.”“Okay, I can do that.” I said, hiding the panic I felt. I knew something was wrong."Good,” she says, and it took a minute before she started. “Do you know I once loved Slade?”“What?”That I didn’t expect.“I... maybe the problem w

That was it.I was done.Aric had been waiting for me, and as soon as he saw me, he quickly took off his suit and wrapped it around me. I felt like a fool.The moment we were both in the room and alone, he finally spoke up.“What happened?”"There’s not much to explain; it’s all right here," I say, gesturing to my torn clothes.“If he laid a finger on you, I’ll—”“You will what? He is the Alpha King; he is also very strong, and so there isn’t much any of us could do to him.”“Where are you going?”“Packing my stuff and leaving.” “What are you going to say to your father?” he asked.“I wanted to do this—for him, for the pack, but I can’t. The man is a monster; I cannot imagine sharing the same bed with him and his many… whores.I stuffed my things into the bag. I hadn’t brought a lot of things, and so in a few minutes I was packed.“Kaida, I don’t think you should leave now.” Aric says.“Why shouldn’t I?”“At least wait till the feast is over.”“Well, to hell with the etiquette and mo

Despite all the warning bells ringing in my head, I walked in and took a seat, just as he had requested of me. I didn’t know many things about this man, but one thing I knew for sure was that he was used to having his command being obeyed.“A drink?” he offered. Pouring me a glass of whiskey.“From where I come from, a girl does not drink.”“This is your home now; soon the Dawn pack will be no more, so get used to it.” He says, passing me the glass, I took it, but I didn’t drink.“You know, it is wrong to refuse a drink from the King.”“I do not drink, and if I will, it won’t be because you told me to.” I said, placing the glass down on the table.Those ruthless eyes pinned me down once more; I felt for my dagger once more.“I’ve heard a thing or two about you. The girl who aspired for greatness, you fought your way into that; you’ve gone to battles and never failed a mission. I admire that, but in this pack, you are just another girl; all you’ve built, everything dies with your pack.

“My mate, he is here.”“What?” Aric questioned. “How is that even possible?” “I don’t know, but he is here, I can feel it.”Just then, complete silence fell; all chatter ceased as The Alpha King rose to his feet. He was huge, clearly above six feet; he had sea blue eyes and brown hair, which he cut short into a buzz cut. His features were sharp, and maybe my father was right about one thing—the man before me didn’t look twenty-two years of age; he was no child; he was an Alpha in every sense of the word. The scent I had been perceiving, the one that made my heart pound, it was him.Fear was not something I had felt in years; I always liked to think of myself as fearless, but for the first time in a very long while, I was afraid. I was afraid of a man, the very man standing right before me.“He is my mate.” I whispered.“Who?” Aric asked.“The Alpha King.” I whispered back.As if he heard me, the Alpha King's eyes met mine. I wonder if he was feeling the same thing I felt; that was h
Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter Three
The room was just as elegant as everything in the Nightshade pack; it was bigger than my room back in the Dawn Pack. I spotted the dress on the bed. A flimsy thing. If it had been any other day, I would've been attending the Grand Feast in my leather pants and jacket—I hated parties and public gatherings, but that didn’t mean I wasn’t invited to a few back at my pack. I was the Alpha’s daughter; it was required of me. My father tried to force me into dresses more than once, but of course, I never did wear them. It was different now; this was not my pack, and here I was a stranger. Wearing my ‘usual’ clothing would only make me stick out in the crowd.I didn’t want that, but that didn’t mean I would wear the dress he had picked out for me. “It will be amusing to see you in a dress.” Aric said, a smirk playing on his lips.“I’ll be in a dress alright, but just not this one.”“Rebellious as always, let’s hope the Alpha King doesn’t notice.” He said with a smile.“I really don’t give a d
Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter Two
It was time, I would have to pay a visit to the Nightshade pack. Beta Aric was nowhere to be found.I stopped in the courtroom to inform my father that I was leaving, but I noticed he wasn’t alone, Aric was there too. I stopped by the entrance, they hadn’t noticed me and so I hid away from view.“You are marrying her to the Alpha King?” Aric asked, this was indeed the first time I had heard him question the Alpha.“Yes, my daughter will marry the Alpha King.”“You know that’s not where she belongs.”“I will be having no discussion over this matter, it is already settled and done.”“You know who he is…”My father cut Aric off. “He is ruthless, every powerful Alpha is, fear is sometimes power.”“The Blackwood lineage is a powerful one, but it’s cursed – that’s what I think. How else would you explain the mysterious deaths? Slade had been killed by his own son, Thane who wanted the throne – there had been other rumours too, that Freya, his mate, had actually been the one behind his deat
Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter One
Kaida’s POVWith each passing day, I couldn't help but wonder if I'd made a mistake, if I'd doomed myself with my own words—but it was too late to turn back now. I had never met Alpha Ethan before. Though we were neighboring packs, my father and the beta had always been the one going for the meetings, I didn’t do well with meetings and parties and maybe my father was right. Being an Alpha was about more than just being a warrior.I got dressed in my usual clothing, leather pants matched with a black leather jacket and a glove to cover my missing pinkie finger. Had I forgotten to mention that some little 'accident' had cost me a finger? As if that flaw wasn't enough, my body was also marked with a number of scars, so while I had always despised wearing fancy gowns and pretty little dresses, it did make sense why I had to cover up.The men carried their scars with pride, like it was some kind of proof of how fierce they were; scars on a woman had a completely different representation;
Contractually Yours, Alpha THE WARRIOR LUNA (Book III)
PROLOGUE.Kaida’s POVI was not like the other girls; I knew that even as a little child. My father had found it strange that a girl of my age was more interested in watching the pack warriors train rather than playing with toys like the other kids her age did at the pack.I had one dream, and though it may sound impossible, I held onto it. I believed that I could one day become an… Alpha. The first Female Alpha.My father had no male child to inherit his title and take his place, and so each day, I trained to be the best at everything. I was twenty and five years of age and yet to find my mate. To be honest, I hadn’t even been searching for him—whoever he was; on the contrary, I dreaded finding my mate, because that would only bring an end to my dream of becoming an Alpha. I believed it was all fate pointing me in the right direction; this was my destiny.That had been what I thought until everything changed right before my eyes..My father, Alpha Trent, of the Dawn pack, summoned
Contractually Yours, Alpha Epilogue 2
Thane and I returned back to the Nightshade pack. I couldn’t stay at the Raven Clan pack even a bit longer. I couldn’t look into Gabriel's face and see how shattered he was. Mother had broken his heart, not just his’ but the whole pack's, and all she left was a letter. No one deserved that treatment, and yet, there was nothing I could do about it.“So she ran away with the warlock?” Thane asked.“Seem so. I had checked his place; he burnt the whole building to the ground, possibly because he hated the house or maybe…”“He wanted to start afresh.” Thane completed.“Yes, I can’t trace him; he is gone and maybe… I don’t want to find him. My mother says she would visit to see Ethan, but that could be in months or even years.”There was a knock on the door. It was Meredith; she had Ethan in her arms.“Your son is well and healthy.” She said before passing him to me. I held him in my hands; he had grown considerably, and he stared at me with big blue eyes, and in that moment I fell in love
Contractually Yours, Alpha Epilogue 1
I had found my mother an hour later at the farm; she was dressed in a regular gown.“What are you doing? The ceremony had begun, and people were getting very worried.” I said to her, but she gave no response; she had her back to me. “Mom!” I walked to her, and only when I saw her face did I notice something was wrong. Tears streamed down her eyes.“I can’t do it,” she says. “What do you mean you can’t do it? Gabriel is the love of your life; you wanted this. What changed?”“Everything. Everything changed.”“I don’t understand you—what is wrong? Why are you crying?”“You never told me. You knew, and you never told me.” She says, and that silenced me. “You knew that your father, Sebastian Bruce, was alive. You always hide things from me, and I had to go on with it because you are the queen, and you can’t always share things with me like you once would do, but this wasn’t about you—this was my life, and you never uttered a word. You were going to leave me in the dark.”“Bruce had left
