He moved so fast, my brain didn't seem to catch up until I was pressed against him, his one hand entwined in my hair as he forced me to look into his eyes - those dark rimmed, forest green eyes - while his other hand cupped my backside, lifting me so that I was forced to stand on my tiptoes. "I may not be your alpha, cara mia, but I am your owner and you will obey me until you pay back what you owe me," he said slowly, enunciating each word carefully as if he were fighting his wolf for control. "Until that day, you are mine and mine alone." --- Being owned by her own mate was not a scenario Eliana ever thought she'd be in. However, when Luca Castello won her in an auction, she found herself in a desperate situation - especially when he rejects her and demands that she works for him in order to pay off what she owes him. Will she be able to live her life under his command without succumbing to the attraction she feels for him, or will another claim her heart and body?

Chapter 1

Eliana POV

I didn’t go looking for trouble - in truth, it found me well enough without my help. I was just doing my thing, trying to make ends meet, and then BAM! Trouble.

I walked away from table number three, surreptitiously rubbing my backside as I tried to rub away the sting from Wilson's slap to my arse. I hated that he always sat at the tables assigned to me, his eyes creepily staring at my chest whenever he gave his order like he was able to see through my clothes. He was a decent tipper, but I would totally skip out on the tip if it meant I could go home not feeling violated.

Slipping behind the counter, I refilled the coffee machine and switched it on, reaching for my phone as I waited for the coffee pot to refill.

“Eliana! What did I say about no phones during work hours?" my boss barked at me, his red rimmed eyes and creased clothes showing he had probably spent last night with a bottle of vodka.

I rolled my eyes internally, but didn’t dare let my irritation with him show on my face. I needed this job, even though it was absolutely shitty. My phone had been in my hands for probably less than a minute while I checked to see if an email about the scholarship I had applied for had come in. It’s not as if the coffee machine needed constant supervision.

"Sorry, boss.” I tried to inject my voice with enough innocence and vulnerability to make him forgive the incident. "I was just checking the email about my scholarship application.”

“Do that on your own time, I pay you to work! I'm docking your salary,” my boss’ eyes bore into me as if he was looking for any sign of unhappiness from me at his words. I wasn’t going to give him the satisfaction.

“Elie, could you cover table ten? Five guys just arrived and they seem impatient to order,” Sarah interrupted on purpose, winking at me as she walked past. “I know it’s on my side of the restaurant, but…” she nodded her head toward the tray she carried which was piled with dirty dishes, before she sauntered off without a backward glance.

It was clear that she was rescuing me, and I could have kissed her!

"Right away," I grabbed the menus from the bar and put on a smile, grateful to be free of my arsehole boss for a moment.

"Disrespect. That's what I get for hiring a packless werewolf, and an omega one at that," I heard my boss mutter as he headed back to his office, and his bottle of vodka.

My wolf, Ayla, growled in my head at the insult and I could feel her trying to push her way forward.

"He's not worth it, Ayla," I tried to placate her, only to have her grumpily sit down and sulk that I didn't let her rip the man's throat out.

Personally, I'd rather be a packless werewolf than a drunkard human any day! It's not as if my family and I were rogues, anyway. We were just lonewolves, preferring to integrate ourselves with the humans than enter the politics of our own kind.

My mom had had enough challenges being pregnant at eighteen without a mate - well, as far as the pack were concerned. Overnight she became an outsider to the other members, the omega girl who was nothing more than a slut in their eyes. Things didn't change when we were born either - in fact, they got worse.

The alpha had an agenda when it came to Elijah and myself, always trying to get my mom to leave us in his care. She did once, only to walk in on us crying while the pack doctor took our blood. The alpha had said it was a routine checkup, but my mom didn't believe it, running away with us in the middle of the night. Our link with the pack weakened over time until it was so feint that it disappeared entirely all by itself.

Rogues were a whole other story though. They're generally wolves who have been kicked out of their packs, banished for some crime or another. Their link to their packs are severed forcibly - a painful and traumatic experience which usually left the wolf insane, lacking conscience or empathy. They are forced to roam the wilderness, skulking in the shadows and surviving by preying on the unsuspecting.

No, we were not rogues.

Shaking my head at my pathetic boss, I headed toward the table Sarah had left the customers.

I have to admit that my steps faltered as I got a look at the five guys at table ten. They looked like they'd stepped out of a scene from 'The Godfather.' I mean, who wears suits to a rundown restaurant on the wrong side of town on a weekday? Especially since the food was a step away from food poisoning on a platter, with the specialty being greasy, green-tinged sausages and soggy, over-cooked pasta.

I straightened my bright orange miniskirt and white t-shirt (clearly my boss took his fashion inspiration from construction sites), before I swallowed hard and approached the table. My stomach felt as if it had thousands of butterflies inside it, and they just wouldn’t quieten down. It definitely didn't help that Ayla had perked up and was now zooming around my head, making it hard to focus.

"What can I get for you?" I asked after I passed out the menus, trying to keep my voice light and friendly.

“Hmmm… I think I’ll try the steak,” came a voice that sounded smooth and velvety, tinged with a slight accent which made the butterflies worse.

"Mate!" Ayla shouted excitedly, her tail wagging like a puppy dog. "That's our mate, Elle!"

I met his green-eyed gaze and immediately felt a lump form in my throat, a mix of panic and pleasure rising inside of me as I realised that Ayla was right.

I knew I'd have my mate cross my path at some point, I had just hoped that it wouldn't happen yet. With our mates becoming apparent to us from the age of sixteen, being twenty-one and still unmated basically made you a spinster. And while all the other werewolf females in the world were fantasising about their future mates from the moment they stepped into puberty, I wasn't one of them.

Unlike Ayla, I didn’t want a mate, least of all now. Not when I was finally getting close enough to achieving my dreams that I was almost able to smell success. Not when I was a year away from graduating top of my class in software engineering.

Like my wolf, my body had other ideas. Just one look at him was enough for my body to start to react to him; his dark brown hair a tousled mess and his face sporting a five-o'clock shadow, while his muscles strained against the conformity of the crisp, black suit he wore. The wolf inside my head wanted me to grab him and make sweet, passionate love to him right there on the linoleum covered table. But I wasn’t going to do that. My nerdy human side didn’t have the guts to even acknowledge verbally that he was my mate.

“Come on, girl! Introduce yourself, claim him as your mate!” Ayla barked at me excitedly, acting like a puppy.

She had always been pushy, even when I had first met her on my sixteenth birthday. She was the complete opposite of me - where I was reserved, she was in-your-face and overconfident. Which was probably why the fates paired her with me, the extinguisher to her firecracker personality.

“No, I’m not going to embarrass myself like that. If he shows any sign that he feels the mate pull.”

I wasn’t going to launch myself at him, especially when it was clear that he wasn’t as affected as I was. In fact, he barely acknowledged my presence. Maybe he didn't realise I was his destined mate, the implications of which were earth shattering.

My heart beat fast as I jotted down their order and spun around, accidentally bumping into Sarah as she approached with a pot of coffee. She managed to hold onto the pot but coffee sloshed out of it and onto the table in front of the five men, splashing the one who was my mate slightly.

“I’m so sorry!” I exclaimed, fishing out the dish towel from where it was tucked into my apron, and rushing to mop up the river of coffee.

As I bent over the table to reach the further end of the flood of coffee, I felt a playful tap on my backside - an all too familiar playful tap.

“What's your problem, Wilson?” I angrily spun around and I knew that Ayla was shining through my eyes, Wilson had smacked my arse far too many times that evening already and we were both fed up with it.

Wilson stood there with a smug grin on his pockmarked face, his filthy blonde hair slicked back with grease and the stench of sweat wafted from his unwashed body. I had to swallow the bile that rose in my throat - my werewolf sense of smell was a curse sometimes.

“What’s your problem, Eliana? You should feel honoured that I chose to give my attention to you. You know you were asking for it anyway,” his lip contorted into a sneer before he continued. “In your tight miniskirt, you’re just begging for my attention like a slut.”

I felt Ayla push forward again, wanting to paint the restaurant with his blood. As if summoned, my boss appeared out of nowhere, visibly flustered at the thought of losing a frequent customer to my angry outburst. It was no secret that Wilson did some sketchy deals in the darker corner of the restaurant, and that my boss got a kickback from them.

“Eliana, you will apologise to Mr. Wilson immediately,” my boss thundered, spittle flying from his mouth.

“No.”

The smooth voice cut through the tension in the room like a knife, drawing everyone’s attention to the guy I suspected was my mate as he stood, large and imposing.

“But…” my boss started again.

“I said no,” the guy returned, a slight growl evident in his voice. “She does not need to apologise to this man. He sexually harassed and insulted her. You should be forcing an apology out of him instead.”

My boss was terrified, nodding his head as he avoided everyone’s gaze.

“You’ve made a mistake messing with her,” the guy’s voice took on a dark edge and I could see his eyes turn dark, but Wilson snorted and walked away, extending his middle finger toward the guy as he retreated.

The five guys grumbled between them something about disrespect, bringing up ‘The Godfather’ flashbacks in my mind.

“A little something for the inconvenience,” the guy said as he threw a couple of hundreds on the table, he and his friends leaving the restaurant without even eating anything.

I felt Sarah come to stand beside me as we both stared in shock at the five men’s retreating forms.

“What on earth just happened?” she asked in a whisper.

“I wish I could tell you…”

Later that evening, before I finished my shift, I went to take out the trash and found Wilson propped up against the alley wall beside the garbage bins. His face was covered in blood, his one eye swollen shut and the sneer he threw my way was marred by his split lip.

His eyes were filled with hatred.

“You’ll pay for this,” he breathed as he clawed at the brick wall behind him, struggling to his feet. “Even if it’s the last thing I do in this life, I will make you pay.”

I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, seeking solace in the dingy restaurant - but his haunting words still followed me there, repeating themselves over and over again in my head.

“I will make you pay.”

Eliana POVDays passed without any incident, and I almost forgot about the run-in with Wilson and “the guy”.Almost.Wilson hadn't been back, not that he was missed. In fact, all the younger waitresses celebrated his absence. I personally suspected he was hiding out waiting for his face to heal up before he'd return, and there was no way in hell I was going to tell anyone what I had seen. The way he looked at me still made me shiver with repulsion."No use thinking about that waste of flesh," Ayla grumbled, irritated that I was ruining our celebrating mood with thoughts of Wilson. She was right. It was my mom’s fortieth birthday and my twin brother, Elijah, and I had planned to go all out for the surprise party - streamers, balloons, a massive birthday sign and the most delicious cake from the bakery down the road."I'm sorry I can't help you set up for your mom's surprise party, but I promise I'll be there as soon as I can," Sarah sighed, unlocking her car. "I'm secretly hoping Dann

Eliana POVMy voice was unsteady, my eyes fixed on the whip which was coiled and secured to her belt. A slow smile spread across her lips and she bent down to take my face in her hands, looking deeply into my eyes. "The auction, of course. And you, my pretty little one, will fetch quite a nice price." Her cackling laugh echoed in the empty room, a sadistic gleam in her eyes. Fuck. I was in for it now.Swallowing the panic attack which threatened to return, I sniffed the bread and smelled something slightly off about it, throwing it into the corner of the room instead of eating it. It was clearly doped with something, and I didn't want to take a chance with it. I could deal with my rumbling stomach for now. About ten minutes later, the rogue with the face tattoo came in and snapped an iron collar around my neck, pulling me to stand by the short chain he held tightly in his fist. "You're just like the little human girls tonight. Wolfsbane has made sure of that, no wolf is goin

Eliana POVAfter the auction, I'd been guided toward a black SUV with tinted windows and told to wait until my master joined me. Master! Someone fucking owned me now! It felt like forever before the door opened again and the guy who had bought me - my mate, my master - joined me, his face blank. He looked me up and down as the car began to move away from the haunted looking house before he nodded and looked away. I felt dirty, worthless, violated. All of a sudden the panic attack which had been teetering on the edge of my consciousness shattered over me and nausea washed over me. I covered my mouth as I gagged, trying to force whatever was in my stomach down so that I wouldn’t embarrass myself in front of him."Stop the car," he instructed the driver. I gratefully clambered out of the car and into the bushes on the side of the road, emptying the contents of my stomach into the foliage. Just what I wanted my mate to witness! He handed me a bottle of water and I rinsed my mouth out be

Luca POVThe more Nina continued her rampage, the more I felt like putting my hands on her shoulders and shaking her until she shut the hell up. She was making the headache which had plagued me from the moment I had joined Eliana in the SUV infinitely worse. “Enough, Nina. I understand your concerns, but this is a business deal, not romantically linked at all,” I told her firmly, slumping down on the plush sofa at the foot of the king sized bed. “But she is your mate, you cannot tell me you won’t get your heart involved and neglect all that we have worked toward,” she threw back as she headed to the sideboard and poured a splash of brandy into a glass with ice before she handed it to me. I gratefully took a sip, savouring the oak notes before I swallowed and pressed the cool glass to my forehead. “Nina, I rejected her for that very reason. If it weren't for the fact that I spent far too much money getting her out of the hands of my enemies - and that she has a skill which we are d

Eliana POV When Enzo suggested a night on the town, I turned him down, hoping to bury my sorrows in the chocolate stashed in the hotel minibar instead. I understood that he was trying to get my head off of my brother and the lies I was going to have to tell my mom, but I didn’t really feel like partying. I knew that Elijah was alive - call it intuition or “twin-telepathy”, I could feel it in my bones that he was somewhere out there, alive. It took all I had in me not to break out of the penthouse suite and hunt him down, but the doors to the elevator were guarded by werewolves who looked like they were related to the Hulk, and abseiling to the ground from the balcony was a definite “no” from me. Enzo kept nagging though, saying it would be good for me to get out. I eventually caved, knowing that Enzo’s team were searching for Eli and that they had the man-power and skill I could never match. I had to believe that it would be alright, I had to trust him - even though it was extremely

Eliana POV The bartender clawed at Luca’s hands, trying to pry them from his throat without success. He even tried kicking Luca, but this just made the alpha angrier and I could see the fury of his inner wolf flash through his green eyes.  Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a rather round man dressed in black with a gold chain strung around his neck hurry toward us, his face pale.  "Mr. Castello! Oh my! Could you please put my employee down so that we can talk about this?" The man practically quivered in his shoes.  Luca turned to the owner of the strip club and looked down at him, not releasing the bartender as the man continued to dangle in the air. He was turning a horrible shade of purple, s

Chapter 8
Eliana POV “So? Was that so bad?” Enzo teased me as the small private jet eased into its allocated area on the tarmac, a mischievous grin on his face. I unclenched my fingers from where they gripped the armrest of my seat, blood rushing into the appendages. “I still don’t get why we couldn’t have taken a commercial flight. There’s a much less chance of us falling out of the sky in a Boeing 737 than in this tin can.” Enzo chuckled again as the captain of the plane and the female copilot, who was his wife, exited the cockpit to hear my slur against the small plane. The pilot didn’t seem overly impressed that I had compared his ‘baby’ to a tin can, but I was exhausted having not been able to sleep a wink during the almost ten hour flight to London so he was just going to have to excuse the fact that I was just a tad bit grumpy. Enzo, on the other hand, had slept practically the whole way! Memories of that night with Luca kept replaying over and over in my head - his soft lips consu

Eliana POV With one last look at him, taking in the sadness in his eyes that I hadn’t noticed before that moment, I got out of the car and accepted my bag from the driver. I watched as the car drove off before I entered the apartment building.  The foyer had a communal area set up, with an array of sofas and bean bags where the tenants could relax and use the free WiFi that was allocated to the area. It was decorated with potted plants, abstract art on the walls and a small water fountain in the centre of the room, making it seem like a high end establishment and less like the regular student accommodations. The room was empty except for three girls my age, lounging on the sofas and tapping lazily on their cellphones.  In most places, there is some indication

Eliana POV “Shit! Sorry!” I burst out as her eyes met mine, heat flooding my face with embarrassment as I backed out of the room and started closing the door behind me. “Hang on a moment. Wait, you’re my new roomy, right?” the girl asked as she hopped off the counter and fixed her skirt. The guy stood up and leant back against the desk, arms crossed and glaring at me as if I had walked in on them on purpose. “I’m Cassandra - or Cassie as everyone calls me,” she smiled broadly, grabbing my hand and pulling me inside. “Sorry about that, I forgot you were meant to be arriving today else I would have put a sock on the doorknob. Oh dear, you’re wet!” “Eliana, and don’t worry. I didn’t see much,” I responded, feeling the blush return to my cheeks. “I had an accident with the fountain downstairs.” Cassie smiled warmly before she turned to the guy, fluttering her long eyelashes at him. “Mark, darling. I need to help get Eliana unpacked and we have to do some girlie bonding. I promis
