THEY FOUND ME

NOREEN'S POV

"Strip!"

Alpha Ryder Clarkson growled as his darkened gaze wandered my quivering frame.

I flinched at his tone and dared not to meet his blazing eyes.

"Pardon my Alpha!" I dropped to my knees and begged.

I had no idea Alpha Ryder was still in the shower when I got into his bathroom to clean up only to come face to face with a naked Alpha.

Ryder was the Alpha of our Pack the DarkenVille Pack and he was ruthless and brute at heart. I was an Omega who never had a chance to come here often. Living as an Omega of the Pack all my life made me feel vastly intimidated each time I came here to the alpha's wing of the mansion.

"I beg for your forgiveness!" I spluttered.

Ryder was now in a white bathrobe and his face white from the shower. He came closer to where I knelt in his room and lunged out a blow. He never missed his target.

I toppled over to the floor in a loud thud before I picked myself back up again to the kneeling position.

"I didn't see anything, my Alpha." I added just to ease the fury in his eyes. But he was beyond vexed.

"Now I desire to see yours," He stood over me, "Strip!" He reiterated.

His commanding Alpha tone compelled me to oblige. I started working on my zipper with shaking hands and the thumping desire to fulfill our Alpha's desire.

There was nothing but lust in his stares as his eyes roamed my body waiting for the frail fabric to be peeled off, waiting to have a nice view of my body.

"If you're beautiful in there I might reconsider rejecting you." He took in his lower lips with his teeth and lustfully waited.

I dared not disobey our Alpha's command so I worked feverishly at the stuck zipper, praying it came open before Alpha Ryder lost his patience. If he did, I’d get consumed by his rage.

He walked closer to me, I backed away from him but he kept coming at me and only when my back bumped into the wall did I stop my sick attempt of getting away.

His stoic frame stood an inch away from me, his eyes drilled into mine with perceptible lust in them, his hand found my face as his fingertips trailed my jaw.

"How about I make it easier for us?" He dawled in a manner that undid me.

I turned eighteen a few months ago only to realize Ryder, Alpha of our pack was my fated mate but he rejected me that instance making my life thereon a miserable and loathsome one. His pack members hummed in on his cruelty and treated me terribly.

He never wanted me but why now?

His hand dropped from my jaw only to grope my boob. A groan left his mouth as he squeezed it lightly.

I couldn't shake him off, he was after all my Alpha and mate. In my head I thought consummation would strengthen our bond and have him cancel the wedding of his girlfriend.

I wanted this. I wanted to feel my mate in the most intimate way possible. I had prayed all my life for this moment of bliss and here I was about to have this one blissful moment with my mate.

He pulled me into his torso, his hand found the zipper of my dress and he peeked off the fabric from my skin.

My heart thrashed wildly as the warm fabric dropped to my ankles, his large palms cupped my boobs again and his soft and warm lips trailed my jawline.

My ragged breathing seemed to turn him on the more because I could feel his lengthening member growing hard against me.

"If you please me right now, I could reconsider this shit." He whispered into my ears, his breath fanning my earlobes in the most sensuous way.

I wanted to please him. I didn't want my mate married off to the skinny blonde girl. I didn't want my mate to be taken away from me. This was my even chance to reclaim what was mine. And I was going to take it.

I wrapped my arms around his neck pulling him way too close so our lips could meet as my splayed fingers wandered his broad back.

But the door went abruptly open and Heather, his fiancee barged in. The blonde girl stopped abruptly in her tracks the second she noticed us by the wall. Her face fell and so did the bouquet of red roses in her hand.

I snapped from Ryder with my heart doubling up in pace, this time from fear.

Ryder sneered and moved from me.

"Slut!" Heather spat with vengeful eyes directed my way.

"What are you doing here? You were supposed to be shopping with the girls..." Ryder sounded calm and unfazed speaking to his fiancee.

"I can't believe you will cheat on me the morning of our wedding!" She yelled at him.

"Stop acting weird, the ugly runt tried to seduce me." He sounded clinical.

What?

I pulled my dress up and didn't bother to do the zipper, I became too scared to want to move, or do anything to bring Heather's attention my way.

"You can't do this to me!" She yelled at Ryder. "You can't embarrass me this way!"

"Babe, relax okay?" His eyes dropped on my brown ones, "Get your runt ass out my door!"

I obliged, keeping as farther from the fuming Heather as possible as I ran past her.

I left the room, closing the heavy door behind me, closing the horrible experience behind me, I started down the hall with tears in my eyes.

"What took you forever to get here?" Lady Jill, head of the omegas of the DarkenVille pack barked the instant I got into the kitchen.

"I was scheduled to clean the alpha's wing. I, I, I..." I stuttered, tugged an imaginary stray strand of my brown hair from my face, and remained silent.

"You useless good for nothing weakling always finding excuses!" She hissed, "If the bird isn't plucked in the next five minutes I'll have you flogged."

She stomped towards the sink to inspect what the other girls were working on.

No one ever loved me around here. I felt like the rejected one, a mistake in the pack. Moments like this made me realize what a terrible mistake the goddess had made matching me with Ryder.

Ryder was getting married, it didn't matter anymore.

Tears brimmed in my eyes as I worked on the turkey. My mind replayed what happened a few minutes ago and I just couldn't help the heat flooding my cheeks at how willing and eager I wanted to please Ryder.

It didn't matter now. They were getting married tonight. The High King, Alpha's of other packs in the Kingdom, nobles and rich merchants, business moguls of far and near packs were all invited and more than half of their invites were already in the pack.

I needed to have my head checked for thinking Ryder was going to call this wedding off because I chose to spread my legs for him.

Tears clouded my vision, I fought to keep the tears trapped in my brown eyes. I couldn't sob, not when I was on duty.

The kitchen door swung open and Emme, my only friend around here, came bustling in.

"Hide, they're coming!"

The urgency of her words, the fear in her beautiful eyes suggested this was going to be the end for me. They found me.
