Clarie's POV A musky smell of pine with chocolate filled my nose, making me lose concentration on the dance floor. Where I was, the musky smell was so strong and I couldn't stop myself from wanting to get more of it. Inside of my tummy cringed as I began to feel very giddy. I didn't know why the feeling was there but I felt it and it was intense. I couldn't understand what was happening but I knew that I was being drawn to the smell and as I moved, the scent increased I was on the dance floor, having a dance with the future Alpha of Crimson Pack. I hated dancing but I had no other choice, I had to stay and dance with him because my dad had asked me to. How I hated going to such gatherings held for only the high ranked werewolves but who am I to say otherwise? My father is the Alpha of Blemish pack, making me a high ranked werewolf. My dance partner Luca spinned me around and the intense smell of pine and chocolate came again, getting me more distracted. I turned my head around a
Claire Pov I couldn't let go of the thought as it kept ringing in my head. I don't know why but father wasn't telling me the vital thing I needed to know. Why he desperately doesn't want me any way close to Alpha Nathan. Could it be that they shared an ugly past? Or the fact that it's just a birthmark to all werewolf alpha's to hate each other for no good reason? I decided to talk to my mother about this, since she must have a reason why this is happening. She was busy knitting some thing on a white fabric which almost looked like a handkerchief. "Hey," I said as I walked in. "You're busy?" "Hey," she sighed. "Wanna work on this. It's been a long time since I did this." I sat in the bed beside her. "Let me see what you've done." I said. She gave me a look. "It's beautiful." I complimented. "It's always beautiful. Thanks by the way." I smiled. I thought of a way to start the conversation about alpha Nathan and dad, but a part of me just wanted me to shut the fuck up. And the oth
Claire Pov I was in my room when my maid rushed in, looking startled. I raised an eyebrow at her while I watched her breath heavily like a chased rat. She had her hand on her chest while she breathed. "Please tell me you didn't run a meter miles just to tell me nothing." I said, a bit less concerned. "My princess, you won't understand." She said, still breathing heavily. "So make me understand." "I was at the market when I heard the news." I was a bit interested in what she was about to say, despite not knowing what she was actually talking about. "What news?" I asked. "He's in the territory, and he just arrived a few minutes ago." She said, "Who's that?" I asked, inquisitively. "Alpha Nathan." She replied. On hearing the name, I stood up from the couch. "Where is he heading to now?" "To the palace." She notified me. "Only him, or does he have more people with him?" I asked. "There are only two convoid cars approaching here. So no, it's not just him alone." I couldn't exp
Claire's Pov Dad left where he sat, walking to my side. I wasn't gonna listen to whatever he's gonna say. "Hey," I remained quiet. "You don't have to do this." He whispered. "Do what? Are you gonna push me away this time?" I questioned. "No. No, I wasn't going to do that." "Then let me do this. Dad, Alpha Nathan is my mate, and you can't expect me to pretend like I don't know. " "I told you already, Claire, Nathan isn't what you think he is. He isn't a good guy, he's bad and he's dangerous. Giving yourself to him will be a big mistake." "Dad, I'm tired of listening to this over and over again. I understand, and I don't want to indulge myself in whatever business or past you shared with him. I just wanna be happy." "And you think he's gonna make you happy? Huh?" He sighed. "Claire, he's gonna frustrate your life and make it a living hell." "I don't wanna believe you. Look, dad, you've always said you want to see me happy and that you'd do whatever it is to make me feel better.
Chapter 5 Claire POV (2 Days Later) Putting the brush into the bucket of soapy water, I scrubbed the ground. My fingers were hurting and I had turned red in anger an pain. My little siftbhands moved the brush up and down as I cleaned the floor and cried. It's only been two days with Aohw Nathan and I had turned to a slave. I'm a servant in my mates pack and I hate myself for doing this. My parents' words kept recalling repeatedly in my ears, I can hear their voices sound over and over again. I wished I had listened to them, I wished I never agreed to go with Alpha Nathan. Now it's me, living the hell of a traumatic life. When they said Alpha Nathan isn't as calm and innocent as he looked, I thought they had said it out of their hatred for him, or because they despised him to the core. Now I am clearly seeing what they meant by the words. He isn't just wicked, he's more than heartless and ruthless. I was made to scrub the hallway from the start to the end, and it's almost like
Claire's POV "Is this all about revenge?" I gasped while staring at him. I felt like going to hug him and kiss him despite all he had just said but I had to ignore the feelings and resist it, I don't think I liked that. Damn that mate bond anyways!. Not after he had treated me like a slave,I had anticipated coming here but now I have to be maltreated, I doubt the lowest rank in the pack could be treated this way. "Isn't it obvious?, this is all about revenge against your God forsaken parents, they ruined my life and shattered my heart, the least I can do to reward them for their sinister deed is to punish their sweet little daughter" A snarl came from him, his silver eyes peering at me intensely, those eyes are not only beautiful but seductive. That seduction had drawn me to him, but in those silver eyes I want to see love, he's my mate, he should love me and treat me like his other half. "I am your better half, any pain I feel, you would feel it!" I yelled out of frustration, sti

Amidst the jubilant atmosphere, Claire stood beside Nathan, her heart fluttering with a mix of excitement and apprehension.As the pack settled into a respectful silence, Claire's father addressed the crowd.
