Just as I thought Alpha Bennett would snatch my life away, Lucas' voice was suddenly heard. "Alpha...," Lucas said leaning in. When I heard his voices, a wave of calm ran through my body. I quickly ran to him and stopped beside him. "I've come to...," Lucas tried to say in a trembling voice.Just then, however, Bennet's voice boomed off the walls."I want you to get the hell out of my mansion right now!" he exclaimed. At those words, my eyes widened like two saucers, but Luke's expression was shocked. "Alpha... what... what do you mean by that?" he asked still dumbfounded. "Can't you hear? I want you to get your sister out of here and out of my mansion. From now on you are no longer my Gamma, you are dismissed from your position" Bennet insinuated making his way towards the exit. The door banged loudly as boisterous footsteps could be heard coming from the stairs. As soon as we were alone, Lucas turned to face me and swallowed hard, "Hester, what just happened? Why is the alpha
More than three hours had passed and we hadn't heard any news from my mother. Lucas was pacing back and forth with his hands on his head, while I sat on the floor and hid my head between my knees. I kept thinking about what was going to happen now, however, just as I was about to say something to Lucas, a doctor approached us. "Doctor, how is my mother?" asked Lucas, concerned. The doctor took off his mask and looked at us with a serious expression, "Mrs. Daisy is a strong wolf, but her heart seemed to have suffered a little. Maybe something has happened to her." "What do you mean by that?" I asked. "We wolves have the ability of fast healing, but with her mother's problem, she won't heal like the rest.... She doesn't have much time left," the doctor said in a low tone. At those words, I looked at Lucas and swallowed dryly. My mother had her time counted down."You can see her if you want." Said the doctor suddenly.I looked at Lucas and gestured to him. I couldn't see my mother
For years I had dealt with girls like that, who just wanted to get my attention, just like Hester had done that afternoon when she showed up in front of my car and fell to the ground. Besides, that bitch was accusing my brother Freddy of cheating on her, how far could her greed go?It was obvious that girl just wanted to become my Luna, and she would do anything to get it. I couldn't help but clench my fists and frown. But just at that moment my father's voice was heard. "Bennet, what are you planning to do, this is a bloody mess!" my father hinted with his hands on his head. I looked at him and noticed his worried expression. I just waved him off and sat back on the couch, thoughtfully. "How can you be calm, you went all the way to Alpha Carl's mansion and brought his daughter here! What the hell do you plan to do to control the situation?" my father shouted hysterically."Father, stop it! You must calm down! You think I can't handle the situation, do you think I'm afraid of Al
Bennet was upset, I could see it in his eyes and in the way he was addressing me. However, I was undeterred and took a step forward. "So, what's supposed to happen now?" I asked him with a frown. He cleared his throat, put his hands to his chin and looked at me seriously before replying, "I want you to accept your punishment.""Punishment? What are you talking about?" I asked with wide eyes. "Yes, you must be punished for being the mate of someone of higher rank," he hinted teasingly.As soon as I heard it, my heart stopped. Was he insulting me? But why did his words cause me so much pain? I didn't feel anything for Bennet, I didn't even care, but his words hurt me terribly. What the hell was wrong with me? Since when did his words hurt me? At first, I didn't care what he thought, but now it seemed that the mate bond was having an effect on me."Alpha Bennet. I'm sorry about what happened at your commitment ceremony. I know I messed everything up and my apologies are useless. But
The reality is that when Bennet invited me to his office to talk to me, he helped with my mother's expenses and sent her to a good hospital in the country, and also returned the gamma title to my brother.However, the only condition was that Lucas would not contact me, as it was obvious that Bennet hated me. At first, Lucas refused to leave me alone with my mother, but I convinced him that everything would be fine. He just nodded and, with a kiss on my cheek, left and moved into the alpha mansion. From that day on, I never spoke to him again. However, he had seen my mother a couple of times, but they were forbidden to talk about me. Although my mother didn't fully know what had happened, she had a feeling it had something to do with me. Without giving it any more thought, I just went down to the living room and walked toward the exit. My mother was doing much better, her heart was a little delic
Bennett wore a black suit and a light blue shirt that perfectly matched his light eyes. His face was handsome and powerful. Everyone bowed their heads in respect. Most of the girls were completely in awe of his beauty, while the guys just recoiled in fright. On the other side, more than twenty men entered who were Bennett's warriors. They used to follow him everywhere, but I didn't recognize more than two. I examined each man, excited that I might see Lucas among them, but to my misfortune none of them were Lucas.I was so lost in thought that I didn't even realize I was the only one in the huge room who hadn't bowed to Alpha Bennett. But before I could do anything, Anna grabbed my arm and pulled me down "Fuck, are you looking to die?" she said, surly"Thank you very much, you may sit down," Bennett said in that fucking perfect tone of voice. Her scent had hit my nose making me suddenly shiver. For a moment I looked down, trying to control myself, but it was no use. The bond was
All my attention was on the stage."-Student Hester from room 102, please present your project."When I heard those words, my heart almost stopped. What the hell was I going to do now? I had studied for weeks for that project and now I had nothing. I didn't know what I was going to say at that moment, but I walked up on stage with shaking hands and looked at everyone present. However, at that moment, I could tell that everyone present was looking at me in amazement at what was behind me. I didn't know what was going on, but as I turned my gaze I saw Bennett standing there with his black eyes. He looked like he was about to punch someone, as his dangerous aura spread throughout the room. I had no idea what was going on, but when I saw Anna point over my shoulder, I quickly turned around and my eyes widened like two saucers. I couldn't help but take a step back as I looked at the hug
I felt Freddy's grip on my arm. With a grunt, I looked up and couldn't take it anymore."Let go of me! You're an idiot! I told you never to touch me again in your life!" I shouted over and over. "Fuck, Hester, why don't you accept that you still love me? No one else will love you, only I can make you happy," he replied."Happy? You slept with Delilah for two fucking years? You betrayed me!" "Shut up. That was a mistake. I never spoke to that bitch again. I should never have slept with her or fallen for her fucking seduction, but now I'm sure of what I want. And whether you like it or not, you'll have to come back to me. I'll never accept you with another man. You are mine, Hester!"His voice sounded powerful and domineering. He wanted to lock me up with him, but why? Every girl in the school was in love with him. He could have anyone.Without saying anything, I let out a big growl and pushed him with all my might. "Get away!"As soon as he swung, I ran into another one of the corrid
It had been almost 20 minutes since Bennett had been in the kitchen. I felt bored and reached for my phone to check it.In fact, since Walter had left, I had done nothing but fill his message inbox with questions. However, he ignored them all."-Honey, I'll answer all your questions when I see you again-""-I'll be back soon, just stay away from Alpha Bennett-""-I want to see you-"I read his messages over and over again. In fact, I had done everything I could to stay away from Bennett; however, when he blackmailed me again I had no choice but to come to this place with him."The food
I stared silently as Bennett's lips quirked into a faint sneer. His scent freshened my nostrils, but I shook my head and folded my arms."Alpha Bennett. I don't want to be here. What did you bring me here for? Are you planning to sleep with me?" I asked with annoyance. At my words, Bennett's eyebrows rose as he fell silent. His expression was softer, but at the same time his eyes were resting on mine, as if he was trying to read my mind. A derisive snort escaped my lips when I noticed his silence. Did this man think I would not respond? However, as I wandered in my thoughts, I saw him walking toward a mini-bar. Ignoring him, I walked towards the stairs and looked up to the second floor, where strangely only one door was visible. What the fuck, did this huge mansion only have one room? It was impossible! On the other hand, I looked around and saw the kitchen, a huge living room and a door that seemed to lead to a garden. At that, I took a step to move away, but at that moment, I h
The car drove through the woods for almost 30 minutes. My body felt numb when suddenly the car stopped in front of a huge old mansion.It didn't look like the ones in the pack, it was different, it looked like something out of a fantasy book. There was a huge garden of blue and purple flowers all around, while the pillars were black and the walls were opaque white.There were even several artificial fountains that seemed to have colored water.I was so engrossed by the beautiful scenery that I didn't notice that Bennett had gotten out of the car.I came out of my trance when I saw him open the door on my side and hold his hand out to me with a smile.
I could feel everyone's gaze on me; they were obviously upset. Me, Alpha Walter's fiancée, getting into Alpha Bennett's car? What kind of woman was I?"Shit Did you see? What a bitch that girl!""But what about Alpha? How can he go with that girl? Is he planning to cheat on the beautiful Agatha with that woman?""She was Alfa's assistant. Maybe they already fucked and now she's running into the arms of another alpha?"The murmurs were heard until the car window was rolled up.On the other side, I reached across the seat and crossed my arms angrily. Bennett seemed to sporadically turn his gaze toward me, making me uncomfortable.&n
In fact, I was well aware that everyone at the institute knew that I had been the girlfriend of Alpha Bennett's younger brother, so perhaps the man felt a little strange."Alpha, I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you said" hinted the dean with a confused expression. Although the dean had power over the students, Bennett had power over him and all the higher ranks of the pack, so whatever Bennett said was binding, whether they liked it or not. At that, I saw Bennett look away and focus on the man behind the desk "Hester Winters will get her transfer effectively only if she is my assistant for one day. After that, you can leave the pack without any problem and continue your studies there", he said seriously. The dean's eyebrows went up. Everyone at the institute knew that I had been Bennett's personal assistant, so the dean snapped his fingers and sighed, “Oh, that makes sense."Oh, that makes sense. I see that Ms. Hester Winters did her job well as an assistant. I am very proud
From Hester's point of viewThe days were passing quickly, yet Walter still hadn't returned from his pack, which created an emptiness in my chest.The reality is that Bennett didn't miss any opportunity to tease me. He even started sending flowers, chocolates and gifts to my house. I would just take them, throw them in the trash or give them away to the kids at school. How could that man possibly think of buying me gifts? That morning I woke up early and took a shower; however, my phone started ringing as I was getting dressed."Dean?" I said when I saw the contact."Miss Hester, good morning. I am calling to inform you that your transfer request has been denied" said the dean in a soft voice."What? How is that possible? Why?" I asked with my eyes wide open."I don't know. It was orders from my superiors. So you will have to reapply or speak directly to the superiors" said the man.As soon as I heard that, I hung up the call and threw the phone on the bed. I clenched my fists in f
Fuck, I understood perfectly what that contract meant. With a sigh, I closed my eyes and tried to calm down. I didn't want Bennett to do something he might regret. So I turned around and walked over to the picture next to the wall. I pulled the painting out and looked at the hidden safe. For a second I stopped and looked back at Bennett, expecting him to make a gesture of regret, but no, he was more elated than ever. Without further ado, I had to turn around, put in the secret key and pull out the black folder. With a worried snort, I walked back to the desk and handed the folder to Bennett, who took it before looking at me with a terrified expression."Leave your worries alone. I'm fine" he said with a deep tone. On the other hand, I saw him focus his attention on the folder and open it. His eyes roamed over each and every page as my chest nearly exploded.***From Bennett's point of viewI read every single word of this damn contract. However, my eyes stopped on a couple of red
I looked at him with a soft expression and let out a sigh, trying to figure out what was going through his mind "Bennett, what are you doing at Alpha Manor? You never come here unless it's really important." At my words, Bennett just sighed and got up from his desk. He walked past me and stopped right at the mini-bar, where he pulled out a bottle of vodka. Seeing it, I arched an eyebrow and saw a bottle on the desk. At first I wanted to ask him about the bottle he had found, but as soon as I saw the lipstick stain on the nozzle, a smile broke out on my face. It was obvious that Bennett wouldn't touch the bottle, certainly not after knowing that Agatha had touched it. With a sigh, I walked over to the couch and sat down, looking at him "What are you planning to do about Hester?" I asked. "What are you talking about?" I asked, drinking straight from the bottle.. This man was truly an eminence. I saw him drinking from the bottle without even breathing. I got up quickly
However, before the situation escalated, I opened the mental link to Derek "Come to my office now" I ordered.I was so fucking tired of all this shit. However everything went silent for a moment.I massaged my temples thinking Agatha would finally stop talking, but she opened her mouth again."I've hated that woman ever since I knew you had feelings for her, though you're such a coward that you've never told her. Is it because you're tied to me that you didn't leave with that bitch?" She said mockingly. "Agatha, watch what you say!" I growled while clenching my fists. "Oh, no, you're going to hear me. You think I didn't see how you looked at that woman when she wasn't even your brother's girlfriend? Your brother brought her to the mansion for a party and you almost died when you saw her. However, your brother seemed to have a crush on her too....I gave him a stern look, but at that moment the office door opened. Derek walked i
