6: Marriage Agreement

DAISY'S POV

I barely had time to breathe, shower and slip into my nightgown after the so-called tour before the door to my room burst open.

It was Zordon. His presence filled the space instantly, sucking out the air like a storm crashing into a quiet shore. He had a brown envelope in his hand.

I hated the fact he didn't knock. He just walked in, reminding me he owned the place. And maybe, in his mind, he thought he owned me as well.

I straightened, trying to mask the tension in my shoulders. "Do you always barge into rooms without knocking?"

His lips twitched, but there was no real amusement in his gaze. "Yes. I find it unnecessary. You'd understand if you were an alpha."

"What do you want, Alpha?" I bowed. "It has been a long day for me. I need rest," I frowned.

He looked at me and then let out a sly smile.

"Little Bunny, I know you know everything," he folded his arms behind his back as his eyes roamed my frame. He was respectful and businesslike at breakfast, but now that we were alone in this bedroom, he was showing me how much of an animal he could be by the way his eyes were scouring my body.

I grabbed the pillow off the bed and placed it over my chest.

"I do not know what you are talking about."

"I know you overheard my conversation this morning," he said, his voice smooth as silk.

My breath caught in my throat. I forced my expression into something neutral.

"As I said before, I have no clue what you are talking about," I repeated.

Zordon hissed, and I jumped, dropping the pillow to the ground.

"Don't lie to me, Daisy." He stepped closer, and despite every instinct screaming at me to hold my ground, I found myself gripping the hem of my silk night dress. "You heard everything, didn't you?" His voice was quiet and deadly.

I swallowed. My mind raced, grasping for a way out. If I admitted it, I'd be confirming what he already suspected. If I denied it, would he believe me?

I settled for a half-truth. "I didn't hear much."

His gaze darkened. "But you heard enough." His eyes slowly dropped to my heaving chest again, and instinctively, I wrapped my arms around my breasts. "I've already taken mental photos, Little Bunny," he snickered. With his arms still behind his back, he stalked up closer to me. His minty breath cooling my heated face. "Is this how you dress for bed?"

"What is wrong with my nighty?" I questioned. "I paid good money for this."

"I can tell by the many strings that hold the pieces together," he chuckled some more. "But for a she-wolf who doesn't have a man anymore, you sure are dressing sexy for bed." He used the tip of his nose to graze my cheek. My body betrayed me as my nipples got hard and between my thighs got wet.

His nostrils flared as he sniffed the air around me. He cleared his throat and backed away. Then, without preamble, he tossed the brown envelope into my hands.

"Open it and read the papers inside," he barked out.

I pulled out a stack of crisp white papers.

I frowned as I read over the first line and paused to look up at his smirking face.

"What is this?" I asked.

"Your future." His voice was deceptively calm, but there was an edge beneath it, one that made my heart race with fear.

I glanced down.

Obviously, it was a contract. The words 'Marriage Agreement' were stamped at the top in bold, merciless ink.

My stomach churned in disgust. I looked back at him, searching for any sign that this was some kind of sick joke. But something told me that Zordon was a man who didn't do jokes.

"You want me to sign this?" I asked, my voice careful.

Zordon stepped closer, his silver eyes glinting. "I don't want you to. I expect you to."

Heat crawled up my neck. Anger and unease twisted inside me. "You can't force me."

He arched his brow. "Oh, but that's where you're wrong, Little Bunny. I can and I will."

I gritted my teeth. "Why? Why do you even want to marry me?"

"Because you are mine now. I like to have papers to show ownership of my possessions. Just like how I have the deed to this mansion, the lands that surround it, and this pack. I need to have papers showing the world that you, Daisy Halfmoon belongs to me."

The words slammed into me like a physical blow.

"I don't belong to anyone," I said, my voice steady despite the fire burning inside my chest.

Zordon tilted his head, studying me.

"No? And yet, here you are, living in my home, eating my food, and under my protection."

I clenched my fists. "Protection? Is that what you call this?"

He didn't answer. Instead, he picked up the contract and flipped through the pages. "You'll find the terms quite reasonable," he said smoothly. "You'll be my wife in name, nothing more. You'll accompany me to public events, play the role I need you to play. In return, you'll have safety, security, and more luxury than you ever had in Dexter's pack." Then his eyes fell on my dress again. "You can buy all the nighties your little heart desires."

I scoffed. "And what do you get out of it if I sign this agreement?"

His grin widened now, but there was something dark behind it. "An obedient and loyal wife and Luna. Once you marry me. You are mine. No other wolf should touch you or even look at you in a suggestive way. And I don’t want you to touch another man either. If you break these rules, I will break the wolf you dare to betray me with."

My blood ran cold. I hated the fact that Zordon was toying with me. "And does this apply to you, too? When you became my husband, will you never look at or bed another female ever again?" I had to ask him.

My words seemed to have stunned him. "This isn't a negotiation. I'm the Alpha. You don't get to tell me what to do. NOW SIGN THE DAMN PAPERS OR IT'S THE BARRACKS FOR YOU!" His roar seemed to have shaken the roof.

I forced myself to remain still, even as my pulse hammered in my throat.

Then I reached for the contract. I skimmed the first few lines.

The terms were as he said. No real marriage, no real intimacy. Just a partnership for the public eye. But then my eyes caught a few clauses.

~Clause Six: The wife shall not leave Alpha Zordon's territory without permission.

~ Clause Nine: Any act of betrayal or defiance will be met with immediate punishment, as deemed fit by the Alpha.

My fingers tightened around the pages.

Punishment?

I glanced up meeting his sharp gaze.

"You really thought I'd let you run?" Zordon asked. "That I'd bring you into my world without ensuring you stayed?"

I swallowed hard. "This isn't a marriage. It's a cage."

His smirk faded.

"I don't care what you call it," he said, his voice turning cool. "Sign it."

I hesitated.

For a moment, I considered refusing. I considered tearing the papers in half and throwing them in his face. Maybe life working in the mines wouldn't be so bad. But Zordon's eyes were watching me too closely. He was up to something. I could feel it in my bones. I had to figure out his plan and I couldn't if I'm shipped off to become a worker at the barracks.

So instead, I picked up the pen.

Zordon's gaze stayed locked onto me as I hovered the pen over the signature line.

I could feel the weight of my own heartbeat. The invisible chains snapping into place around me.

And then, with a deep breath, I signed my name. A sharp silence followed.

Zordon took the contract from me, scanning my signature with satisfaction.

Then he leaned down, so close his breath fanned against my cheek.

"Welcome to your new life, wife." Whistling, he made his way to the door. Her paused and without glancing back at me, he said. “By the way. That’s one lucky bed.”

My mouth hit the floor, I blinked and then Alpha Zordon was gone.

    ZORDON'S POVI stood at the edge of the training grounds, arms crossed and eyes fixed on Daisy as she moved with stealth. She was a natural and way more of a talented fighter than I thought. Sweat glistened on her skin under the afternoon sun, her muscles taut with effort. She was getting better, faster, stronger, and more precise. Every strike she delivered was sharper than the last, and every dodge was more calculated.Good.She needed to be strong. Strong enough to survive. Strong enough to fight back when the time comes.I watched as she pivoted, launching a powerful kick that sent the training dummy staggering back. The sound of wood cracking echoed across the field. She barely took a breath before attacking again, this time more relentless and determined.A small smirk tugged at the corner of my lips. She was improving, more than I expected, and that was all the satisfaction I needed."Not bad," I called out, my voice cutting through the clatter of training. "But you seem to b

You have the most smug face of all the smugs in the land," I rolled my eyes. "But you find me handsome. Am I wrong?" There he went again with his smugness as he sipped on his wine. "Dead wrong," I huffed. "Little Bunny, you are fun to talk to and be around," he revealed and something about the way he said it brought heat to my face. He noticed, but he didn't comment on it. "So please, tell me these rules of yours before I run out of this good mood I'm in." "First, you won't control me in public. I will go wherever I want, and whenever I want to." He let out a soft chuckle, tilting his head as if amused by my boldness. “Daisy, you are my Luna and that means..." "That means nothing if I feel like a prisoner," I cut him off, my voice sharp as a blade. "If you drag me into your world, I w

"You are mine, and that means you follow my rules, whether you like them or not." His breath was so inviting, and now I was envious of everything that has ever been inside his mouth. I swallowed but remained silent, waiting. "Let me make this simple for you, Daisy." he continued, his voice dropping to a dangerous whisper. "My own rules don't apply to the event only, but also to your general stay here," he fumed. "Rule one: you do not leave without my permission. Whether it's a walk, a trip to the market, you go nowhere unless I allow it." My fingers curled into fists at my sides, but he ignored it. "Rule two: you will not entertain any man's attention. That means no conversations, no stolen glances, and certainly no dancing. If any man dares to touch you, it will not be you who suffers the consequences but him." My eyes flickered with defiance. I wanted to argue,

And the effects of these traumas are draining your wolf's energy. You will gain your strength when you grow older, or when you find your destined mate," Uncle John had repeatedly assured me.But it didn't feel like just trauma. I knew it was something worse. My wolf was withering as though she were being poisoned, as though wolfsbane ran through my veins instead of blood.In my uncle's household, I was reduced to the cook, cleaner, gardener, and housekeeper. I was forced to juggle with multiple house chores and when I would complain, I would be left with no other option than to stay hungry.

He kept growling softly as he sniffed the air, loving what he was smelling. He sank his nose into the crook of my neck. I lifted my chin, like I was gaining him access, refusing to step back. "What do you think you're doing?" I had to at least sound like I wasn't into this. "Do you want me?" he asked bluntly, as though discussing another one of his business deals. He pulled back now, wanting to see the reaction on my face. His gaze dropped to my lips."What...?" I raised my eyebrows, pretending to be confused."You can tell me," he murmured. "It will be our little secret." He was caging me against the mirror on the wall. Before I could snap out a response, he lowered his nose to my cheek, his fingers ghosting over my neck, tilting my face up to his."I have no clue what you mean," I whispered, my voice lacking t

    ZORDON'S POVDaisy was really nervous about what I'd say next. But mark her? I never even thought about doing that, because I didn’t want to force her to have my mark if she was not genuinely interested in this marriage with me. We only had a contractual relationship, plain and simple. Marking her would feel like I was crossing the ultimate line. When everything settled down, I thought about freeing her, but if she had my mark, how could I just walk away? She would be bound to me forever, well, not forever, we would have to reject each other if we decided to go our separate ways. "Zordon. Say something." her voice was enough to pull me from my stupor. “Daisy, you have no idea what you're asking for. I can't mark you," I hissed. "Yes you can. Please, I beg you, don't reject me like everyone else in my life," she pleaded. I could taste her desperation and my heart went out for her. "This way, you can see and feel my every move. You'll be able to know what's on my mind and in my thou

Her eyes were clouded with something I couldn't quite decipher.Was it fear?Pain or hesitation?"Daisy?" I prompted, my voice lower than intended. "Say something. I thought you said you couldn't shift anymore."She struggled to speak, but then she closed her mouth as though shutdown by an unseen force."I haven't since that one time when I was sixteen. I don't know what's happening now," her voice was cracked with pain, her eyes welled up with tears. "What can I do to make it better? Do you want me to call the pack healer?" My hand went to her shoulder and just like that, she relaxed, and her shift seemed to have stopped. Her eyes slowly slipped back to forest green."No. This is embarrassing. I don't want another person to ridicule me or mock me," she drawle

I couldn't believe my eyes. This was impossible. This must be an old issue, one that was distributed months before Zordon met me. But the date showed this was four days ago. He told me he was off to fight a war with some rogues because they were wreaking havoc on the borders of the Baywatch Pack. Could it be that he was secretly seeing Isla behind my back? Could this be why she hated me so much? Because I had the alpha she wanted. Could I be yet a second-time victim of infidelity?I couldn't even swallow the lump in my throat.

I didn't know how much more of this I could take. "I told you, Dexter, I am not in love with you. I just want you to leave me alone. I have a mate I need to get back to. Besides, you are the one who sold me for your own personal benefits. So why are you trying to act like you care about me all of a sudden?" I asked him, an annoyed look on my face. "Can you please just eat, Daisy? I know you hate me. You've been here for almost five days, and you haven't eaten or drunk anything. I can hear you heartbeat weakening. So please just listen to me and do as I tell you."I sighed as he used his thumb to rub my lips. He smiled at me, scooping up more food as he tried to feed me

I had to find her for myself.I waited for it to get dark, then I stealthily slipped out of my room when I felt like the coast was clear. I was out walking for an hour, not sure where I was headed, when a comment from Tony suddenly made sense. Dexter was keeping Daisy in the last place I would go. Could that have been a hint from him?It suddenly popped into my head. The library was the only place I didn't like visiting. I wasn't much of a reader, plus too many books kinda freaked me out a bit. The library sat in the east of the yard. I hurried over to the east building, my heart pounding in my chest. Since Daisy left, Dexter started to spend the majority of his free

He could only blame himself for what I was about to do to him! The person who was closest to him now was Tony, and I was sure that he knew everything that there was to know about the pack. The thought of that man alone triggered a throbbing in my head. Tony wasn't a fan of me. So how was I supposed to get him to fall for my charm and get on my side? I shrugged my shoulders and went to seek out Tony. I came across him sitting by the bar's window, enjoying a drink. I found out pretty easily that Tony's a regular at this bar, so I swung by hoping to see him. I took a deep breath as I approached him. I kinda hoped the alcohol would help him drop his guard.“Tony, this is such a surprise running into you here! What's the deal with you sitting here all by yourself

I kept holding on to hope, thinking that Dexter would have a change of heart, and he would come to see me since it was his heir that had died like that. But he didn't do any of that. He just ignored me. He didn't even think about sending a guard to come check up on me. The love I had for him was now entwined with hate, and any time I thought of him and Daisy, I wanted to stick a knife to their chests so badly. At this rate, I knew I might end up dying because of this man, but I didn't even mind it anymore. He had hurt me way too much! I was walking towards the door when it was pushed open and my father walked in, a cold and annoyed look on his face. I gasped when I saw him. I had not seen my father since I became Dexter's mate. We only communicated over the phone. If he

The door was pushed open, and the healer walked inside. "Luna, you're awake," he announced, smiling at me. "What happened to me? My baby is fine, right? Tell me nothing has happen to my child?” I rushed all the words out. He had a sad look on his face, and I shook my head. "No! No, this can't be. It just can't be true. This can't be happening," I said, still shaking my head. How could I lose my baby? How could I lose Dexter's baby? With this child, my relationship with him would have gotten better.

All that I know was that I wanted to leave this place, and I wanted to get to Daisy as soon as possible. Five days! Five fucking days and I hadn't heard from her. I managed to get out of the bed this time, and I felt happy that I finally had some sensation in my legs. However, the door was pushed open and Isla sauntered in with a funny-looking old man  — "Alpha, where do you think you are going? I told you that you are not allowed to leave this place! I am doing all that I can to save your life. Can you please make things easier for me?" Isla asked me. She strode over to me and helped me back to the bed. "Daisy! Have you tried reaching her?" I asked her, without a care for my health. The bad feeling inside of me just got worse. I knew that something was

    ZORDON'S POVIsla clasped my hand as we walked into the venue. The reporters’ camera lights flashed furiously as they captured as many pictures of us as they could. They screamed my name, yelling out question after question. My eyelids squinted with each snap that they took.I was a man who rarely went out in public, so the media was in a frenzy trying to catch a glimpse of the great Alpha Zordon. Ever since I became alpha, I had refused over a hundred media invitations to do interviews. I wasn't too keen on having my private business blasted on the front pages of the papers for my enemies to see. My reputation didn't stop them from asking their weird and personal questions though. "Alpha Zordon, are the rumours about your Luna having a miscarriage true?" One man yelled as he stuck his camera in my face to snap my photo. I grunted, using my palm to brush his camera out of my face as I continued walking. "Alpha Zordon, are you

"You expect me to eat this?" I shrugged. "Suit yourself. But you need strength to keep fighting me, don't you?" I grinned at her. I couldn't wait to taste her lips again. Her lips pressed into a thin line, her stomach betraying her with a soft growl. I saw the moment she gave in, her pride warring with her hunger. She hesitated before finally taking a small, cautious bite, struggling with the bondages in her hand. I smirked. "Tastes familiar, doesn't it?" She froze, the spoon halfway to her lips. "You made this?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper. "Don't look so surprised," I said, leaning back. "You used to eat this when you were upset. I remembered."
