Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter 10– A pull.
Chapter 10– A pull.Ryker's POVI paced nervously in my room as I came up with different scenarios of how today was going to pan out. I couldn't tell Rowena that she is my real mate but the moment the mating ceremony is done, it wouldn't take long before she gets into heat and...goddess! Enzo would lose his shit that I won't even be able to control him.An Alpha without an heir is a pack without a future. It's like having authority on shaky grounds. Power on the brink of collapse. Elders were already hinting at it while I acted like I was unaware. I need a successor no matter if Rowena is my mate or not, I would have eventually needed one. Elly and I were actually trying until well the forest incident with that rogue.Rogue.I scoffed as I remembered the incident and my blood boiled, it was as if a deep inferno was raging beneath me, waiting for a match to lit it up. How easily it was for her to betray me. And yet, a little part of me felt responsible. Maybe I was the one at fault, ma

Chapter 11– Luna RowenaRowena's POVRyker walked towards me and when he got to me, he offered an arm and I gladly accepted. My legs were trembling but I managed to stand strong, I wasn't going to let him or anyone know how affected I was."You look beautiful." he whispered, his voice hoarse and I rolled my eyes."Do not patronize me. I know the reason we are doing this and why you are nice to me." I snaked. I noticed the flicker of emotions in his eyes before they suddenly hardened."Good. So you know what's going to happen tonight then?" He was staring at me with aloofness in his tone, the initial soft and gentle tone gone, and in was a cold tone. Good. It would be best this way anyways, I have no intentions of falling for him, he was just a part of a deal, a deal that I needed in order to achieve what I want.When we arrived at the top of the platform, Ryker made sure I stood at the center, above where we can see everyone. My gaze swept through the crowd and quickly went down.This

Chapter 12— You can look.Rowena's POVI was sitting on the bed patiently waiting for Ryker. It was midnight already, hours away from the mating ritual. I had left the ceremony and went straight to my room immediately after it. According to Ryker, he told me to wait up here.The light from the moon shone heavily on me, illuminating my structure, and making me look like a sort of angel, it did well to illuminate the opposite of what I was feeling inside of me. My stomach churned at the thought of being intimate for the first time and sadly, not with my mate but with a man I barely knew. This wasn't how it was supposed to be but the events that had occurred these past few days weren't how I had imagined them either.The door creaked open slowly, if I wasn't aware of my surroundings I wouldn't have heard it open.With my back still facing the door, I knew who it was. There was this familiar scent in the air, these sparks and energy I felt within me.Ryker's feet glided softly on the floo

Chapter 13— Do not tempt me.Rowena's POVThe sunlight penetrating into the room got me up from my slumber. I stretched then got out of bed and went into the bathroom to do my early morning routine.Ryker hadn't returned last night or maybe he did but slept in another room. I was awake almost all through the night thinking he might return and want to complete what he started but I waited to no avail until I suddenly fell asleep waiting.The smell of waffles wafted into my nose which made me turn to the door and see Ryker with a tray with food on."Good morning," he said as he placed the tray on the stool close to the bed."Good morning," I muttered unsure of what was going on. He looked at me and began to approach me while I scooted backward."Can you stop right there?" I frowned. Last night I was vulnerable, I acted weak and to be honest, I don't like being seen in such a way. My mind fleeted back to memories, back to the last time I was weak. The day my parents died, scratch that. T

Chapter 14– The place where it all started.Ryker's POVI was out of the cell, my heart threatening to explode as it beat hard in my ribcage. It wasn't only because of the disrespect I had felt from my mate but because of the total rejection. Point black rejection from her.My wolf whined but I tried to soothe him which wasn't helping a bit. He was like a raging dog, wanting to have a go at the last piece of bone but I wasn't going to lose control, not now, not ever. A sigh escaped my lips. I have given love a trial and I had no hope of doing that anymore. I refuse to fall in the throes of love again. I can't afford to get heartbroken again— well, not as if I have a heart anymore anyway. I chuckled at the irony of it all. Once, I was more of the fall in love with your mate kind of guy but now, do whatever it takes to keep your heart whole.I know what I was doing was wrong, but then she needs to learn how to control her mouth. If she wasn't my mate I would never have been so calm wi

Chapter 15– A cheat, A manipulator.Ryker's POVI changed direction and stormed towards the dungeon where Bradford had informed me that Elly was held. She was really pissing me off."Long time no see, Ryker" her sultry voice called out and I gritted. Does she think she has such a hold on me still? I scoffed. My eyes still held the same fire I had walked in here with.I walked towards her and when I was close, I grabbed her hair, tugging it hard as she let out light whimpers but I didn't care, I was blinded by rage."What. The. Fuck. Are. You. Doing. Here?" Each of those words came out with more tug of her hair."Ryk—""Do not fucking call my name!!" I growled. Maybe I wouldn't have reacted this way but Rowena getting under my skin and my last warning to Elly which didn't seem to sound like a warning to her made my blood boil."I came here to tell you something. I swear I wouldn't have if it wasn't important" she managed to say as she tried to catch some air. I wasn't going to let her

Chapter 16– Your worst nightmare. Rowena's POV"You fucking bitch!" I raised my head at the sound of Ryker's voice. His veins were straining at his neck as he glared hard at me. If you look closely, you might assume his eyes were about to fall out from its socket.What have I done to have gotten him pissed again? Keeping me here because I had hit him wasn't enough?"You haven't had enough?" I taunted, "Came back for more, huh? Is that how much you are addi—" I choked back the rest of my words as I felt my eyes roll back. Ryker's fingers were pressing deep into my throat, choking me. Stealing my breath as I struggled to come up with air.My hands immediately clasped at his as I fought for breath. For survival. What was wrong with him? It was official, he has gone crazy.Suddenly his hold on me loosened and he glared down at me. This time I could feel all traces of playfulness were out of his face as a murderous look settled on them."Wh— what. What the fuck is wrong with you?" I manag

Chapter 17– A sudden intrigue.Ryker's POVI watched as Rowena lay motionless on the floor. If it wasn't because of her steady pulse which of course I had checked, I would have thought she was dead.The spot where I had placed the rod on her thigh had an angry red, the scar looking ugly but I wasn't done with her yet. I have never been this irrational but Rowena had pissed me off. Lying to me was one thing, but teasing me and daring me like she hadn't lied to me, stringed me along. It inflamed the fucking inferno in me."You know you can't continue with the torture when the captive is almost half dead. You need them to be alive to feel it" Aiden's annoying voice met my ears and I groaned inwardly."What are you doing here?" I hissed. A pesky fly isn't one I was looking forward to right now."I heard you had a new prisoner, I wanted to see who it was" he replied as he paused behind my back, his gaze flitted to Rowena who was still lying on the floor passed out. I knew the pain would

Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter 25– Tell me the truth.
Chapter 25– Tell me the truth.Rowena's POVI glanced at my bloodied legs. I could see my bones hanging, some in pieces and the only thing still connecting my knee to my feet was a piece of flesh. I groaned as I tried to adjust and sit in at least a little more comfortable way.My body was on fire. I thought Ryker was bad but Aiden was a full on evil monster. I had lost at least three nails while I was being tortured. I had to come up with a lie, a believable lie before I was left alone well if you considered fainting. I hadn't fainted, I'm pretty sure I would have been worse than this.I could feel my eyes swollen from all the hits I had taken, perhaps from the never ending tears that had run out of my eyes since I have been locked up in this cell. I shut my eyes as I felt a load of tears threatening to fall again.I thought I was strong. I thought I could overcome whatever they threw at me but I was wrong. I didn't even last a day. I sighed as I let the cold floor seep into my skin.

Chapter 24— Once an enemy, always an enemy.Ryker's POVI paused. My claws suspended in the air as his words rang in my ear. Was this some kind of joke?I forced Enzo to the back of my mind despite how hungry he was to harm Aiden, I needed to know if what he was saying was a lie. I shifted back into my human form, with the situation at hand I didn't realize my nakedness nor did I care."If you are joking with me—" I growled, leaving my threat hanging in the air."I swear I'm not" Aiden wheezed as he tried to stand from the floor to his feet."When did you find out about it?" I asked, my gaze unfocused as I thought of what might have happened. The only thing I came up with was that someone had helped Amelia escape, someone who was related to the sleeping potion and I came to one conclusion, the Shadow pack but something wasn't making sense, how had they taken Amelia but yet left Rowena in the cell?"As I was torturing her, I—" my glare shut him off, he didn't complete his statement but
Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter 23– Brawl
Chapter 23– BrawlRyker's POVI just wish you would snap out of it and act like the Alpha we thought you were. There was that word again. I sighed as I closed my eyes, I have let a lot of people down. I have been letting a lot of people down and now my best friend. Bradford doesn't say anything most times when I fucked up unless he needed to say it and he just did. That means I was spiraling out of control. I needed to fix this, I needed to make things right.I slid out of the bed, my head spinning but I have a place to be. I have to set things right, maybe, just maybe, I will be able to regain the respect that has been lost.I sniff the air trying to find Bradford. My nose caught his familiar smell at the training ground. I headed in the direction to speak with him."Hey," I said softly as I approached him. His fist connected to the punching bag at a faster speed and harder the moment he heard my voice. I knew he was wishing it was my face he was hitting."Bradford," I called as I p

Chapter 22— HOW COULD YOU?Ryker's POV"You've got to be kidding me!" Aiden growled as he stared at me in disbelief.I could feel Enzo slipping away from my grip. "Just stop" I gritted, digging my feet into the ground as I tried to restrain Enzo.Maverick and Bradford came close to me as they tried to hold me, if Enzo should take over, their strength meant nothing as I would tear them down to get to Aiden.Aiden glanced at Rowena who was writhing in pain as she stared at her bloodied legs."Get your hands away from me" I shrugged off Maverick and Bradford and I walked towards Rowena, my nose in the air as the metallic smell clouded my senses.I was tempted to touch her, to soothe her pain and tell her I was here but I refrained myself and stood straight. I mind-linked Bradford and Maverick and told them to take care of her injury."Should I take the collar away from her? She needs to heal without it" Bradford asked and I shook my head."No, let her be like that, until she speaks the t
Contractually Yours, Alpha Chapter 21– Shadow's Crest
Chapter 21– Shadow's CrestRyker's POV"I believe you know what this is, Cousin?" Aiden voice was taunting as he kept on shoving the crest in my view. Now I was tongue tied, I have never been this humiliated in my entire years of life. Not even when Father had lashed me in front of the whole pack when I had caught the smallest game at a hunt."Of course, it belongs to the Shadow Pack," I replied. My voice was cold, the once understanding person I had tried to be when I had stepped into this cell was far gone, pushed at the end of the hole as I returned my gaze on Rowena.I watched as her eyes widened. I shook my head, I am so stupid for almost dismissing her as a suspect right now. I had let sentiment in and didn't look beneath the facade. I had been here for minutes questioning her and Aiden hadn't been here for up to five minutes and he had gotten a lead. An answer to our ever burning question.Aiden took some steps towards Rowena, he glanced at me and then back at her."Who is sh

Chapter 20– What's that?Ryker's POVMaverick, Bradford, and I all went to the pack house. I wanted to believe it was a way to get me away from Cami knowing that Bradford wasn't in support of me and Cami but there was this little bug at the back of my mind telling me it was not.I kept my face rigid, my expression stoic as I walked towards the pack house. My heart was literally beating hard in my chest full of worry but I didn't let it show.We got to the quiet pack house and I glanced around watching as my pack members were all in a deep slumber. "What in the name of the moon goddess happened here?" I asked."I don't know, we came back from patrolling duty and found them like this" Bradford answered."This can't just be happening without a reason," I muttered. Whoever did this had a reason."Where is the cook?" I asked. The food must obviously have been lazed with a sleeping potion. There is no way the entire pack was fast asleep right now.Maverick pointed in a direction, I squinted

Chapter 19– Cheating pain.Rowena's POVI groaned as my eyes flickered open. My body was burning, the spot where the hot rod imprinted on my skin burned, and the silver collar on my neck refrained me from shifting, if I had shifted, my skin would have healed properly.I shifted on the floor and scoot backward to let my back rest on the—"Fuck!" I groaned as the pain hit me below my abdomen. What the fuck! I tried to scoot backwards again but I couldn't.It was like someone was ripping my heart, twisting and turning it. I couldn't breathe, my eyes became watered and red as I struggled to breathe. I held my abdomen as tears leaked out from my eyes.What's happening to me?I couldn't communicate with Lupa because of the silver collar in my neck, I couldn't tell what was happening to me. Another wave of pain hit me and I groaned. I lay on the floor as I allowed myself to get cold but the more I tried the more painful it was. The place I was marked on my neck began to heat, what I was feel

Chapter 18– You still owe me.Third person POVElly sat on the cold hard floor. She shivered lightly as the cold penetrated into her skin, as a werewolf, she wasn't supposed to be cold. She was supposed to be resistant to it but the cell she was thrown into was no ordinary cell.She closed her eyes hoping that the woman did as she was told. Soon, William would walk into the pack to save her, that is if Ryker didn't change his mind about her yet.A grin crept up her face, her plans were really working out as she planned. It was a shame that the current Alpha of the Shadow Pack who she had informed about Rowena hadn't taken a step like she had thought he would, but it didn't bother her. She had her plans too and she wasn't going to wait for someone else to do it for her. "Soon, really soon." She kept on mumbling, hoping it would soothe her.The silver cuff on her wrists was really eating deep into her skin, reducing her capability to heal quickly but she didn't mind at all. She was goin
