Amelia hesitated for a second before seeing him; relief flooded in but was quickly replaced by confusion. The woman in her very little wanted to leap into his arms and experience the safety that he had always provided. However, the other component remained fettered, recalling deceptive and half-sino behavior in this role.“Get away from her.” Bruce’s voice was a growl and he stepped forward. "Now. " The attackers hesitated, seemingly unprepared for this new circumstance. Elijah noticed the rogues' wounds, Sarah standing guard in front of Amelia, and the circle of adversaries that surrounded them. 'There are more of us,' one of them said, attempting to appear confident. ”This does not concern you at all,” then turn around and dismiss her, and everyone will just look the other way and act like the incident never took place. Bruce smirked as coldly as previously and the feeling Amelia experienced was a creepingly frosty one. She knew Bruce could fight and saw the strength he
Amelia stood in the men’s restroom, holding her ball wedding gown tightly against her chest.Tears welled up in her eyes as she contemplated the shattered dreams of her marriage.The realization had hit her hard. Her supposed fiance, the man she had trusted and loved, was nothing more than a cheating opportunist who had set his sights on her family's wealth.Lost in distress, Amelia failed to notice her surroundings and accidentally bumped into a masculine chest. Startled, she slowly raised her gaze and found herself in a pair of cold, piercing eyes.The intensity in those eyes sent shivers down her spine, but desperation clouded her judgment as an idea pumped into her head.She held his suit and looked straight into his eyes.“ Please marry me,” she pleaded, her voice trembling.The man raised an eyebrow, clearly taken aback by her sudden request.“ Why should I marry you?” He asked, his voice cold.Amelia’s heart raced, knowing she had to find the right words to convince the stra
“ Grandpa!” Tristan shouted, rushing to Grandpa Lawson's side.“ Someone, call an ambulance! Hurry!”Amelia's parents were worried and rushed to help.Amelia's mother felt guilty, knowing that her daughter's actions had caused trouble.Nevertheless, she didn't blame her because she believed every word that came out of Amelia's mouth.But the fact that she got married to a total stranger made her mother worry more.Lilith, Amelia's best friend sneered.She didn't regret what she did, not even for a second.“ Finally, Tristan belongs to me and only me,” she smiled.The room was filled with tension as they waited for the ambulance to arrive.The wedding had turned into a total disaster.“ I can't believe this is happening, “ Amelia's mother, Rose said, shaking her head.“ Me neither, “ Amelia's father, Kelvin replied.“ It's all because of your daughter. She has made us a laughing stock in the whole city of Las Vegas.” He added angrily.“ No one even cared to ask her how she was feeling,
Amelia cowered. His voice sounded so dangerous that she was lost for words.She had just made a deal with the devil without even knowing.He was no human.If she had known earlier, she would have accepted her fate and gotten married to Tristan.Alpha Bruce took a few steps toward the bathtub.“ Are you scared?” He asked as he stopped in front of the bathtub.“ Why…would. I…be… scared?” Amelia stuttered."Then great.! Be quick with your bath!" He ended, returning to his once cold self and walking off from the bathtub.Amelia's heart was on a rampage at the moment. She was gasping for breath as her hands ran through her hair, sinking deeper into the bathtub.The only reason that she had noted that she was fine was because she wanted to act in touch."What have I done!" She was still gasping for breath as the realization hit her harder.If she was going to be married to a wolf, then she needed to find out about them. Amelia rushed over to her bath for this sole purpose before running off
Amelia felt strange looking at him. She didn't know the consequences of what she had just done...A gulp went down her throat. Was this the point where she was going to apologize to him? But before she could even say another word, he already got up from the bed and stared."Then we might have to look at the contract again." He ended up off the room.Amelia sat on the bed still staring. She was confused for quite a while as she still couldn't understand what was going on.That morning she woke up. "Good morning Miss. Amelia!" They greeted herWasn't it supposed to be Mrs? But Amelia didn't think much about it, if that's what she wanted, then it's fine. She drew a deep breath before a maid brought her meal over."Sorry! Have you seen you Alph.." Amelia hesitated a little bit and when the maid had smiled at her, she was a little bit revealed.Maybe she could make friends with her and would not have to go through the ordeal of having to ask the Alpha some questions himself."He went
Amelia was bored so she strolled off into the kitchen. Kate turned out to be the chef and earlier, she had been told that her mother-in-law would come along to the place.She drew a deep breath as she walked over to Kate who was a little bit stunned and was forced to inquire... "Mrs. Amelia! What.. what are you doing here?" She inquired with a little confused look on her expression. "I was told that my mother-in-law would be coming around and since you are the chef around here, I wanted you to leave things to me for a while." Amelia smiled.She knew very much that her marriage was more or less a fake one and there was no need to get on good terms with her mother-in-law.But she was the one who had made the decision and was not going to mean anything if she got along with her. Besides, it could be one hell of a six months if they were not on the finest terms together. "I'm Afraid Amelia but I don't think that our Alpha is going to like that!" She said,"I don't think that he would e
Caroline cast her gaze between the two ladies, a sly grin tantalizing her lips. "You two are acquainted? How delightful. This is the person my son foolishly married, Ema, sweetheart. Meet Ema, the future Luna of this pack and Bruce's true mate, Amelia." It seemed to Amelia that there was no longer any ground beneath her feet. She turned to Ema, looking for traces of the warmth and friendship that had once characterized their relationship on her friend's face. Rather, she perceived merely icy logic in Ema's gaze. Amelia shook her head and said, "Ema, I do not understand." "What role do you play in this whole thing?" With a haughty expression covering her features, Ema lifted her chin. " Amelia, I have always been a part of this world. My real home has always been here, with my people, even though I was sent to the human world to observe and learn." "Your people?" Echoing, Amelia felt as if she were stuck in a dreamscape. Are you a werewolf? "She is, of course," Caroline s
In the days that followed Caroline and Ema's dramatic departure, the pack house was full of murmurs and sidelong glances. As Amelia moved through the corridors, she felt the weight of innumerable eyes on her, the air thick with tension and unsaid opinions. Despite their physical absence, Ema and Caroline had an enduring impact on the dynamics within the pack. It appeared that their impact extended well beyond the Alpha family's immediate orbit. Amelia wandered into the communal gardens of the pack one brisk morning, seeking comfort in the colorful flowers. She turned a corner and heard voices talking passionately in subdued tones. "It is unbelievable that the Alpha is still allowing that human to be around," a female voice muttered. "After Ema arrived and all of that?" Another voice said, "I heard she bewitched him somehow." "There is no other way to explain it." It crushed Amelia's heart. She had assumed that Bruce's widespread popularity would put an end to these rumor
