SOFIA'S POVQuickly, I broke away from him.Damn it. How could I get so lost in my emotions that way? We both were panting. The longing for each other— it was quite visible in our eyes.For a minute, the air between us was tense. I gulped down saliva, fiddling with my hands.“I'm sorry, Sofia. I didn't mean to.”“It's okay..” He smiled. “You should complete your meal. I have some urgent business to attend to.”He sprung to his feet, moving briskly. I watched him until I could no longer see his figure.Frustrated, I sighed. At this point, I was confused. Thinking straight seemed quite impossible.Now that I had agreed to get married to Dane, I had this anxiety burning deep in me. Rushing into a new marriage had never crossed my path even once, but saying No to Dane wasn't quite easy. He was the Lycan king and seemed like a very good man. I couldn't be so sure though.“This is crazy.” I hissed and then continued with my meal.With every spoon that I took, I was remembered of the cold
SOFIA'S POV “What's the problem sir? Have I done something wrong?” Mike asked, confused.I was curious as well, if not more curious than he was. “Perhaps if you weren't blind, then you would realize that my Lady is standing right beside me, and deserve to be respected as well.”I grinned within myself, pride engulfing me. “Can you imagine the level of disrespect?”One glance at Mike and I could see the embarrassment flushed on his face. The joy it gave me, nothing could compare.Mike bit hard at his lower lips. “I'm sorry sir. I meant no disrespect.”“My lady, is sorry enough for the disrespect caused to you?”I chuckled. “No, it's not. A proper greeting would suffice.”Dane snapped his fingers dramatically. “You heard her right? Greet.”By this time, almost half of the people gathered, had their gazes fixed on us.Mike stare was hard and could have bore into my skin if it was possible. I could feel the rage burning deep inside of him. “Good morning Sophia,” the words traced from h
SOFIAI wished someone would wake me up from this dreadful dream.But unfortunately, it was not a bad dream. It was real life. Looking down at the papers in my hand, I swallowed down the bile in my throat as I read it through again and again. It couldn’t be possible. I had made sure that I avoided anything that was going to give me these results. Be it those teas that the healers used to give me and the cervical contraceptive that my doctor had placed in my cervix months back. I shouldn’t be pregnant. I could not even believe my eyes as I shoved the papers in my bag. This came at the worst possible timing. Not when I just found out that my scumbag of a husband has been cheating on me throughout our marriage.Mike Henderson was the perfect husband on paper. He was the alpha of our state, and he also was a multimillionaire and incredibly handsome. Everyone says that his wife would be incredibly lucky to have a husband like him. If only they knew the amount of pain I had been subject
SOFIAMike let go of my neck a little as he turned to look at the person who spoke.A man walked towards us and even after almost being choked to death, I had to admire how good he looked. He had mesmerizing kind blue eyes, long chestnut brown hair, and a killer jawline. He looked like he was sculpted perfectly from clay. I wasn’t sure if he was from here because of his attire. He wore a long brown coat over his clothes and when he was close enough, I could see how tall he was. Way taller than even Mike even though he was like 6’2. “What is going on here?” The man asked as he looked between us in confusion. I did not know him but I was already scared for his life. Mike had a reputation for being ruthless. As the alpha of the pack and one of the richest alphas, he could easily destroy his life. Take away his job and kill off anyone who tries to stand in his way. “Mind your business.” He snapped as he let go of me completely and he turned to face the man. I let out a normal breath
SOFIA The ride back to his house was smooth. I was quiet in his car, afraid to even make a move that was going to irritate him. I did not know anything about lycans. All I did know was either fake or it was mixed with fabricated lies.Lycans were our superiors. The highest in the hierarchy. They were all billionaires and trillionaires who owned all of the businesses in the world. They employ alpha werewolves and give out alpha titles to whomever they see fit.Everything was practically a transaction to them, and we did not mind because without them we would be poor. The higher your rank in their companies, the richer you become and the more chances that you become the alpha of your pack.Mike got in by chance after our marriage and he became one of the richest werewolf alphas in the world. The lycan kings often never come in sight but have managers who relay their information. Their packs and palaces are so heavily guarded that only a small percentage of werewolves have ever gotten

SOFIA I froze. His words left me in shock. Did I hear right or I was only hallucinating?I fiddled with my hands, gently raising my head to him. “I'm sorry, I don't think I heard you right sir.”He swallowed hard, his gaze fixed on me. “If you'll be coming with me to my pack, then I want us to get married.”The words choked me. “I'm sorry, but why do I have to get married to you?”I was scared. Having just gotten out of an abusive marriage that lasted for six years, getting into another wasn't what I wanted now.What if he wasn't any different from Mike? There was no prior news about him, so there's no way I could tell.He smiled. Gosh!! That smile.It.. it made my heart flutter. Oh, was flutter the right word? I wasn't sure, but then.I remained quiet, my mind racing with thoughts.“Why do you want to get married to me?” Finally, I asked.He moved closer until only a few inches were between us. “I am not sure if this would sound nice to you, but I'd say it anyway. I need an heir t
