Monika Pov's
.
I was looking at my daughter, who was looking at me with a smile. She wants me to get back with her father, but she doesn't know how much he hates me and thinks low of me.
Ryan kissed my cheek, startling me. I turned my face and looked at him, then touched my cheek where his lips touched me.
"He kissed us" Anika howled in happiness while my heart was beating at higher speed. Ryan looked at our daughter, Jenny, then winked at her, making her giggle. I understood he intentionally kissed me in front of Jenny to show her how good he is and how much he loves and cares about her mother.
"Think about our daughter before making any decision." He said in a low tone, then looked at me.
"Remember, if you didn't marry me, then I will apply for Jenny's custody in the werewolves council... So think, baby girl and make a wise decision if you don't want to lose your daughter." He said and again took out some paper from his coat pocket.
"I knew you would destroy the papers after reading the conditions. That's why I asked my lawyer to make two copies", he muttered and kept the copy of the contract on the desk and passed me the pen.
"You have no option but to sign this paper," He said, showing me how vulnerable I am in front of him. I snatched the pen from his hand, making him laugh at my misery.
Tears fall from my eyes and fall on the papers. I took a deep breath and signed the contract with a heavy heart, knowing from here my life would be miserable. I secretly wiped my tears and passed the pen to Ryan.
He looked at the pen and then at me before turning his head towards his beta, who nodded and took out a pen from his pocket to give it to his Alpha. Ryan took the pen and signed the papers.
"You don't want to touch the pen touched by me, yet you want me to fulfil the duties of a wife", I mocked him for his boorish behaviour before walking towards Jenny. She happily hugged me.
"Finally, I have a complete family!" " she shouted in happiness. I smiled and picked her up in my arms.
"I can do anything for your smile, baby" I whispered and kissed her forehead.
"Daddy!" She called for Ryan and then asked him to come closer. He smiled and did as his princess asked. He encircled his hand around my shoulder and then kissed Jenny's cheek as he kissed mine.
"I don't know if we ever be able to become each other perfect mates or not, but I'm sure we are going to be amazing parents for you, princess, " he said, looking into my eyes. I nodded and smiled in satisfaction. At least my sacrifice wasn't going to get wasted.
"Okay, guys, my granddaughter and I decided to go on a trip for a week," my mom announced, surprising me with her sudden plan.
"Trip?"
"Yes... I want you two to have fun and spend time together after marriage. If I stay here, then your attention will be on me instead of Daddy, and I don't want it. That's why me and grandma planned a trip together," Jenny said and clapped her hand excitedly. I look at my mom who passed me an awkward smile. I understood it was her plan that she fit in my innocent daughter's head.
"Okay, we have to pack our belongings" Mom said and took Jenny in her arms.
"You should go with Ryan to his pack and don't worry about her. I will take good care of her and will drop her at his pack after the trip," She said and went outside before I could say anything.
"I can't believe this" Ryan snarled and shook his head. I look at him bewildered.
"You used my daughter for your dirty plans" He grunted, tightening his grip around my shoulder. I look at his hand and then at him.
"I'm not getting what you're saying, Ryan"
"A five-year-old girl can't think so much. Obviously, it was your plan. You asked your mother and my princess to go on a trip" He pushed me away from him.
"If you think we can come close by spending time together, then let me clear your misunderstanding; I will never fall in love with women like you", he snarled and looked at me from head to toe with disgust as if I came out of the mud. I didn't say anything to clear his misunderstanding because I knew he would never believe me.
"Let's go, Max" He ordered his Beta.
"What about her, Alpha?" Max asked Ryan and gave me a judgemental look after hearing his Alpha question.
"She is an independent girl who can go anywhere she wants. I don't care", Ryan grunted and walked outside the courtroom. Max shook his head in disappointment and went behind his Alpha. I rolled my eyes and sat on the chair, unable to believe I loved a person like him.
"Are you sure, you want to hide your wolf rank from Ryan?" My mom asked me through mindlink.
"I'm not hiding but not telling him and I don't think it matters to him. He is an as*hole who doesn't care about anyone but himself" I groaned in frustration, unable to believe he left me alone just after marrying me.
"He is now your mate, Monika. I think you should forget what happened in the past and move on," My mom advised me.
“But Mom” Before I could say something, she interrupted me.
"At least for your daughter, you have to mend your relationship with him," she said. I sighed and nodded.
"I will try" I replied and closed the mindlink before I broke down into tears. If she knew what Ryan thinks about me and how he treats me then she wouldn't have let me marry him. I sighed and went outside, then looked up.
"Why you make him my fated mate, Moon Goddess? Did you hate me so much that after so many rejections, I had to choose him as my mate?" I asked the mother of werewolves. She wrote thornes and immense pain in my love life.
"He hates me for the mistakes I made in the past, but I wish he could see how broken I'm from inside", I whispered in a low tone and wiped the unwanted tears which always betrayed my eyes. I hate to cry like a weakling.
I took deep breaths to calm myself and think about what I should do next.
"Your Highness", I was lost in my thoughts when a man came to me and bowed his head in front of me.
"Mother Luna sent this car and asked me to pick you up for Wild Pack", He said. I look at him and then at his car.
"Wild pack means Ryan's pack," I thought and looked back at his warrior.
"Say thank you to Mother Luna for sending this car for me, but I can't come with you," I said with a polite smile. He looked at me shockingly as if he didn't expect me to go against his Alpha's order.
"Are you sure?" He asked to confirm. I nodded and walked towards my car.
"What are you planning, Monika?" Anika asked.
"I'm planning to prove that bas*ard Alpha that he is not wrong. I'm an independent woman who can easily break his stupid male ego"
.
Monika Pov's.I parked my car outside Ryan's mansion and hopped out of it. Warriors outside the mansion looked at me shockingly as I came here driving my own car."I imagine what would be Ryan's reaction when he came to know that I came here. I'm sure he must have thought I would cry and wait for him but to his dismay he married a rebellious Queen not a sympathy queen" I smirked and walked towards the mansion while looking around, impressed at how Ryan turned this entire pack condition.I remember Mom told me that the previous Alpha of this pack destroyed this place, but Ryan changed and improved everything after becoming Alpha."Our mate is so good... Most of Alpha refused to take the pack of low quality with poor members and facility, but he did magic. Not only did he choose to become the Alpha of this pack, but he also improved things here. He did an impressive job in handling everything." Anika started praising him."I agree with you. He indeed changed everything. I read an artic
Monika Pov's."Ryan's ex... His fi--first love," I stuttered, looking at the lady, widening my eyes. Anika whimpers, realising our mate is still in love with someone else."You didn't know about Jenny?" She asked."I... I didn't know Ryan's ex's name was Jenny." I replied. Tears rolled from my eyes."Five years ago, when we met for the first time and felt the mate bond, he told me he loved someone else in his life, but I didn't know he still loved her", I mumbled in a low tone and wiped my tears."I thought he might have moved on from her. That's why he asked me to marry him" I said and lowered my head as I didn't want her to see tears in my eyes."Monika" She called me lovingly and took my hand in her hands."No one can replace Jenny in his life, but that doesn't mean you can't create a space for yourself in his heart," she said with a light smile. I chuckled and shook my head."If he hasn't forgiven her in the past five years then it's impossible that he will ever love me. Moreover,
Monika Pov's . I wiped the unwanted tears which fell from my eyes without my permission. I had never cried in the past five years, but seeing him with someone else brought tears to my eyes. I don't understand why that ruthless cheater matters so much to me and why I always fall for the wrong person. I took a deep breath to calm myself, not wanting to cry for him and was about to open the door of my room when a maid came near me. "Do you want something?" She asked. I scrunched my eyebrow. "No... why?" "You're opening the door of my room so I thought you might need something" She said. "Your room?" I asked and looked at the door, then her. "But Ryan's mother assigned this room to me" I muttered. "You're mistaken, Luna... She must have assigned you that room," she pointed at the nearby room. "But", I clamped up and then looked at the doors of both rooms; they looked similar. "You are new here. That's why you might have got confused", she said and shrugged her shoulders. I nodde
Monika Pov's.I moved my hand and brushed Ryan's lips with my fingers. All my confidence vanished when he held my hand and took my finger between his lips. His one action reminded me of the first time, he kissed me and sucked my lips."Ahh," I hissed in pain when he bit my middle finger."You should not play with fire; it can burn your hand", he said and shoved my hand away. I didn't say anything and tried to cross him when he held my hand and pulled me back to the place where I was standing before. He leaned towards my face."Ryan" I called him. My heart was beating at a higher speed in anticipation of his next move."Next time, if you touch me without my permission, then you can't even imagine what I will do to you. This marriage is only for our daughter, not to fulfil your desires. So there is no need to act like a""who*e?" I asked, completing his sentence. He shook his head."Wife... There is no need to act like my wife." He said. I turned my head in another direction as his clo
Monika Pov's .I didn't reply to Ryan and bowed my head, unable to understand what I should say to him. Obviously, I can't say that I want him to check me out or get affected by me... Or..."touch me" Anika completed. I bite my lower lip and close my thighs, feeling a different sensation. I don't understand why he affects me like this..."Look at me when I'm talking" Ryan said and held my chin to make me look at his face. "Don't bite your lips" he grunted. I closed my eyes and cursed myself for acting like a stupid."You didn't answer me," He whispered."Oh God .. why does he need to sound so sexy?" I thought and opened my eyes."I wasn't imagining anything", I replied, but I doubt he heard me. He just nodded his head, looking at my lips instead of my face. "Is he also getting affected by our closeness?" Anika asked me as if I knew everything about Ryan. I gulped when his eyes moved down from my lips to my cleavage. "Ryan" He shook his head before I would've said anything."Don't
Monika Pov's .I was looking at Ryan, widening my eyes. "Why?" I grunted. He smirked and then pointed towards a dress kept on a couch."Get ready... Mother wants to meet you" Ryan said in a stern tone."You could have just shook my body or called my name to wake me up... What was the need to throw water?" I shouted and looked at the clock on the wall. I hardly slept for a few hours, and he woke me up in the worst manner. "Whatever... Get ready. I don't want to make Mother wait for you," he said."Fine" I removed the blanket and hopped out of bed."F*ck" he cursed under his breath."Now what I did" I asked, getting annoyed with his jerk behaviour. I scrunched my eyebrow when he didn't reply and kept looking at me. "He lost his mind", I thought and shrugged my shoulders, then picked the dress from the couch and went to the bathroom to take a bath and change. My eyes shot up when they went into the mirror."Ahh" I screamed, seeing my na*ed body. Now I get why Ryan was looking at me.
Monika Pov's .Ryan stood in front of me, glaring at my soul. I gulped and forced a smile on my face, pretending that I was not afraid of him."She is looking mesmerising" I heard another warrior complimenting me who was standing behind the warrior who complimented me before. Ryan clenched his jaw and held my arm."Didn't I tell you to change?" He hissed. I look at his hand then him."I'm not your slave... It's my body and my choice to wear anything I want" I snarled, trying to release my arm from his grip. My arm started hurting because of his tight hold."ohh, girl! You don't know how dangerous it is to mess up with me" he grinned and moved closer to me. I gulped and tried to take a step away from him, but it was like he already knew what would be my next step. He kept his hand on my waist, restraining me."She is your Alpha's mate, and you should keep this in mind before passing any compliment", he grunted, looking into my eyes, then turned to look at the warriors who complimented
Monika Pov's .Ryan held my chin and made me look at him. There was a mild smile on his lips which was like a warning."I asked you something" I gulped and shook my head before nodding."Huh?" I opened my mouth to tell the truth when Ryan's beta, Patrick, came towards us."What are you doing?" Patrick asked, seeing Ryan close to me as if I was not Ryan's mate but his side chick. Ryan rolled his eyes and parted away from me."Why do you think I'm answerable to you?" Ryan asked with a tight-lipped smile. Patrick glared at me before bowing his head."Luna's mother is calling you into her room for a talk before having lunch," he said. Ryan nodded and looked at my side. Before he could say something, Patrick interrupted him."She is calling you alone," Patrick grunted."I know," Ryan growled back, silencing him. Anika was having a hard time controlling herself here. I shook my head as everyone here was insulting an Alpha wolf without thinking of the consequences."Sorry Alpha" Patrick b
Ryan Pov's.I smiled loving how freely Monika was laughing. It made my heart flutter. If possible, then I want this smile never to leave her face.I don't know why things went sour between us in the past or say I don't want to think about those memories again. I just want her to be happy."And for that, you have to give up on your plan of snatching her daughter from her," Wild scowled."You're still hanging over that topic. I dropped that plan last night, realising how horrible I'm turning day by day. Thankfully, her tears and care for me stopped me on time; otherwise, I wouldn't be able to look at myself in the mirror," I replied, looking at Monika, who started blushing after catching me staring at me. She turned towards me and raised her eyebrow as if asking me, 'why am I staring at her?' then bowed her head shyly."I'm amazed you look gorgeous at the age of thirty-five," I said, teasing her."Thank" She clamped up and then narrowed her eyes at me. "Were you admiring me or making f
Monika Pov's .My heartbeat rose when Ryan stood up and walked towards me. It would be a lie if I said his actions and expressionless face aren't scary. I don't want to have another fight with him."Ryan", I called him, but he shushed me."Stay quiet" I narrowed my eyes when he ordered me. I was about to say something to piss him off for ordering me like this, but his next step left me dumbstruck."Ryan," I gasped when he kneeled in front of me and held his ear. I looked at everyone present there; they all were shocked, just like me."I made you apologise because Welda is our elder, and I don't like it when someone talks back to her, and Gloria is like my younger sister whom I want to protect with everything. I didn't like how you behaved and called her," he muttered. I tightened my lips and nodded."I can understand, and that's why I apologised, and I would've done it even when you wouldn't have asked me to do it. It's just" I stopped and looked at Ryan, unsure whether I should shar
Author Pov's .Ryan raised his eyebrow at my action but didn't say anything in front of me. The girl sitting beside him passed me a smile."Hello, Monika," She greeted me, but I ignored her and took the toast in my plate and butter, then looked around for a knife to butter my toast."Here" that girl passed me the knife. My eyes went to Ryan, who gestured for me to take the knife. I rolled my eyes and snatched the knife from that girl's hand, startling her."Wow... Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed," she muttered."At least I didn't wake up with someone else's husband," I scoffed, not able to hold myself anymore. I was fuming in anger after seeing her flirting with my man, Ryan, who was hearing our conversation. He started coughing while that girl was looking at me, widening my eyes."Ryan... Didn't you teach your wife how to behave?" Welda asked, gritting her teeth. "Monika," Ryan called me and glared at me. I ignored him and looked at Welda's side."Why are you saying an
Monika Pov's .(Back To Present).I was lying on my bed and biting my nails anxiously while thinking about Ryan and that girl who asked him to come into her bedroom. "I can't believe the guts of that girl... She flirts with Ryan in front of me." I groaned and then whined like a baby."More than her, I'm mad at myself. Why didn't I give her a good reply that time? I should've hit her on the face so that she would think a thousand times before roaming around my man," I muttered to Anika and then smirked, imagining hitting that girl."Anika" I called her when she didn't respond to me. She was awfully silent for the past hour. "Hmm," she hummed in response then yawned."What happened? You're silent for so long?" "Don't get me but please don't get too attached to Ryan," Anika mumbled."Why? What happened?" I asked surprisingly as this is the first time she is doubting Ryan and saying something like this about him."After how he broke our hearts so many times, I don't trust him anymore
Author Pov's . Monika was standing outside the house of her parents, battling with herself whether she should go inside or not. When Monika was fifteen, she left her father's pack and shifted to Aaron's father's pack to live with Aaron. She loved Aaron since she was five, unaware that her future held something disastrous for her. "No... I shouldn't go inside... I can't face them," she thought and turned to go. That's when her mother came outside and hugged her from behind, surprising Monika. "Mom" Tears welled up in Monika's eyes. She turned towards her mother and hugged her. "My doll" Her mother called her lovingly and caressed her hair. Aaron informed Monika's parents about everything that happened with Monika in the pack so that they wouldn't question her much but understand her. Monika broke the hug when her eyes went to her father. "Didn't I tell you that you can come here whenever you want?" He asked. Monika broke down into tears and ran towards her father to hug him. Tear
Author Pov's.Aana broke the hug and looked at Monika shockingly, not expecting her to accept the rejection when she and Anika both were in pain."I don't want any men in my life. Especially the one who doesn't even care for once before rejecting me" Monika snarled, answering Aana's unasked question. Aana sighed, knowing Monika was not wrong; anyone at her place would have done the same."Aah" Monika screamed in pain and lay down on the bed. Aana stayed beside her and held Monika's hand while caressing her hair with her other hand. She was there for Monika."Aana... our princess woke, and she needs you," Aaron mindlinked her. She looked at Monika who was still crying."Send her with Marry to Monika's room," Aana replied."You're with Monika?" he asked surprisingly."Yeah… Ryan rejected her," She muttered and looked at Monika with teary eyes. Monika was looking miserable. If anyone saw Monika then he or she would end up crying for her."Fuck.. Now, only this thing was left to make the
Author Pov's .Ryan was walking towards Aaron's mansion where he was staying. He chose to walk over running to calm himself. "I, Ryan Anderson, Alpha of Wild Pack, reject Monika Wilson as my fated mate" He rejected Monika and stopped when he felt Wild whimpering and yelling in pain. It took him time to stabilise and get hold of himself. After some time, he again continued his journey, ignoring Wild, knowing it would take him time to get over the pain of losing Monika.After reaching the mansion, he went directly to his room and started packing his stuff into a bag which he purchased in Aaron's pack after knowing he had to stay here. He packed all his stuff and came outside of his room to the hall. That's when he bumped into Aana, who was looking anxious."Please tell me you didn't reject Monika," Aana asked, feeling anxious, knowing Ryan is the only one who can heal the wounds of Monika given by Gabriel and others. Ryan frowned upon hearing her question."Why are you silent? Please
Author Pov's . "I'm done with everyone, Ryan, so it's better if you drop your drama of being sweet to me", Monika said and walked outside the lake after taking a bath. "Don't", she grumbled when she noticed Ryan was about to turn to answer her. "I don't fake, Monika. I do care for you" he said and cursed himself for being so stupid. He was about to turn and see her na*ed. "Stop it, Ryan... stop playing with my heart" she yelled in frustration. Ryan turned towards her shockingly, not expecting her to put an allegation on him. "Why? Why are you showing care when you clearly want to reject me? Stop pitying me." She shouted, remembering Gabriel's words. She thinks Ryan is also feeling bad for her like Gabriel was feeling before. "I don't pity you," he said, and tried to hold her hand, but she shoved his hand away. There was fear in her heart that Ryan would give her a shoulder to cry like Gabriel did and then reject her in the end. "Then why are you with me?" She asked. "I" he st
Author Pov's.Ryan took control from Wild and looked at Anika who was sleeping in his arms. Tears of guilt rolled from Ryan's eyes. He felt like he took advantage of her condition despite it being Anika who forced him. More than that he was feeling like he betrayed his Jenny. He wasn't prepared for this.Ryan made Anika lie down on the ground gently, making sure not to wake her up, unaware that Monika was awake. Just when he was about to stand up, Monika took control from Anika and opened her eyes, startling Ryan."I didn't know you were so excited to leave that you wouldn't even wait for me or Anika to wake up," she muttered and sat straight, then crawled in a ball, feeling uncomfortable. Ryan looked around and found her coat at a distance. He picked it up and then made her wear it from behind. Monika was feeling numb, unable to understand how to react or what to say and Ryan was feeling guilty and frustrated because of the situation in which they were."I wasn't leaving but wanted
