The Alpha's Forced Substitute Bride Chapter 19
Trinity's POVThe next morning was the same. I read all the articles on the company's website.When it was lunchtime, I decided to go downstairs to buy my lunch and get some fresh air.Someone called my name when I was waiting in the queue to buy a sandwich.I turned around. "Octavio!" I shouted in surprise.The man who was smiling at me was Octavio Friedman. He was a senior when I was a freshman at university."I haven't seen you for a long time. You're prettier now," he chuckled.I smiled shyly, "It has been a long time. I haven't heard from you since you graduated. How are you?""Work, home. Nothing special. My office is nearby."I noticed the employee's card hung in front of his chest. "You work in the Radiance Design?""Oh, you saw it." Octavio followed my gaze and looked down at the card."Me too. I got the job two days ago." I was delighted to meet someone I was familiar with working in the same company."How lucky am I!" Octavio curled his lips. "Will you be surprised if I tel

Antoine's POVI sat in the back seat, reading a document in my hand."What a long day! So many conferences. Are you sure you don't want to have a drink or something?" Gabriel tilted his head to look at me and asked.He sat in the back seat next to me."No. I have another plan," I said without moving my eyes away from the document."Fine. Drop me at the company so that I can continue my work," Gabriel grumbled.Suddenly, he shouted, "Is that Trinity?"I followed his gaze and looked out of the car window.Trinity walked out of the building of the Radiance Design with a man.The man wore a tailored suit, tall but thin.They were talking about something, and they both laughed.My eyes narrowed. I hadn't seen Trinity laugh so happily in front of me."I think I have seen them together before. Where was it?" Gabriel tapped his forehead with a finger.I didn't know if it was that hard for him to remember it, but I knew that I was about to lose my patience.Just before I was about to explode,

Trinity's POV"When are you going to break up with Trinity?" I vaguely heard someone mention my name. It piqued my curiosity.If I had my wolf, my hearing and smell would be very sensitive. Then, I didn't have to walk over. Unfortunately, I hadn't been able to shift yet.Through the crack of the door, I saw my boyfriend Trystan Hogan and my sister Briana Webb lying in the bed half naked. Briana lay half of her body on Trystan, and her finger was drawing circles on his chest. Obviously, it was she who had just asked the question.My eyes widened, my mind was a mass, and my heart began to ache. I wanted to run away but my whole body was stiffened, and I couldn't move my legs or even turn my eyes away.Trystan seemed to be unhappy hearing the question. He grabbed her hand and said, "Don't mention her name."But Briana didn't give up. She raised her head and looked at Trystan with dissatisfaction. "I've had enough. You have to give me an answer now."So, it was not the first time they did

Trinity's POVI didn't care about power or money. But I cared about Maci.Maci was the maid of my mother. After my mother died, it was she who raised me up.When I was young, one day, in order to protect me from being attacked by a rouge, she was severely hurt.Although she healed later, that left her sequelae. As she grew older, her condition became worse.The pack doctor said Maci needed to take medicine every day, but the pack would not pay the expenses for an omega.The medicine was expensive, far beyond what Maci's meager savings could afford.I had just graduated from university. Where could I get such a large amount of money?Marisa's words gave me hope. If I had the money, Maci could live. I once thought that Trystan and Maci were the two most important people in my life. They were the support of my life after my mother died. But Trystan had left me, I couldn't lose Maci. I would do anything to save Maci, even if I had to marry a man I hadn't met before and knew nothing abou

Trinity's POVA man slowly strode over the grass and walked toward my direction.The setting sun poured its light down behind him, drawing a tall and strong silhouette. His face was hidden in shadow, but the noble aura he revealed attracted everyone's attention.All the women on the spot inhaled and soon became quiet.My heart beat faster.The man had long legs. His body was straight, and his steps were steady. As he walked nearer and nearer, his chiseled features gradually showed up in the light. What a delicate face! It was like he had magic on him that made others unable to remove their eyes away from him."How handsome he is! Do the Vaughan pack all look like this?" Briana exclaimed."Briana," Marisa scolded her in a low voice.I once thought that Trystan was the most good-looking man in the world, but compared to this man, Trystan was more like the son of a landlord in the countryside. His clothes and his behavior all looked vulgar. Trystan might feel challenged, and his express

Trinity's POVAntoine seemed to sense my doubt. "Is there anything wrong?"I quickly raised my head to look at him and then lowered my head again."Nothing." I shook my head.When I saw his watch, the first idea that came to my mind was, "Did he steal it?" After all, he didn't have a decent job. How could he afford to buy such an expensive watch?But Antoine's expression was calm, and his eyes were clear. He wouldn't be that calm if it was a stolen watch.So, I quickly threw the idea out of my head.Then, I heard the elder say, "Bride and groom, now you can walk into your family and accept their wishes..."The elder didn't finish his words. He was like being choked. He grabbed his throat with his hands and his face turned red too.I looked at him in confusion, wondering if he needed help. He was probably too old.But it didn't take long for him to recover.The elder calmed down and then said in a hoarse voice, "Let's pass the unnecessary procedures. Now, the groom, you can kiss your b
The Alpha's Forced Substitute Bride Chapter 5
Antoine's POV Trinity didn't say much on the way. I glanced at her from the corner of my eye several times. Her expression was calm. That surprised me. I expected her to be depressed, yelling or crying, rejecting marrying me. After all, no girl would be happy marrying a loser. Not to mention an Alpha's daughter. Yes. I did some investigation after I knew I had to marry her. It was said that Donald's daughter was spoiled. What she liked were parties, alcohol, and changing boyfriends. If it hadn't been my mother's last wish to ask me to marry the Alpha's daughter of the Webb pack, I would never marry such a kind of girl. I wouldn't give her a glance if I saw her. But my mother asked me to vow before she passed away. Although I didn't understand, I didn't want to go against her wish. So, I deliberately released rumors that I was disliked by the pack, couldn't find a decent job, and had no money. I thought in that case, she would not accept me as her mate and ask for a divo
The Alpha's Forced Substitute Bride Chapter 6
Antoine's POVTrinity suddenly reached out her hands and pushed me away. She pushed me so hard that I took a step back to balance myself.I laughed. Rubbing my chest where she had touched, I satirized, "You're not as weak as you look. Huh?"Trinity looked humiliated. She rushed into the bedroom and closed the door.When I heard the door locking, I let out a deep breath."Calm down, Lightning," I said to my wolf.If Trinity hadn't pushed me away just now, I might have lost control of myself.I married her only because my mother required me to. All I needed to do was to make her disdain me and divorce me.But I was too careless. She did have some means.I had seen many beautiful girls, but none of them could make me tizzy.My wolf was desperate to come out. It wanted Trinity."It seems that you haven't trained enough recently, Lightning. Why can't you take a break?"Lightning was still howling painfully in my body.I took a glance at the bedroom door which was closed tightly. There was

Trinity's POVI stood in front of the building of the Radiance Design again.My mood was different from the last time I was here. Because this time, I was officially an employee of the company.Being able to work in my dream company was so exciting, especially when I thought that I was about to see the president, the mystery and handsome Alpha.When I told Antoine that I got the job, although he congratulated me, he seemed not interested. He didn't even ask me for any details.But I didn't mind. My mind was full of imagination for the job. I was glad that he could let me do what I wanted to do.I was also nervous because I didn't know if I was competent for the job.According to what I had learned, except for his mysterious background and outstanding appearance, the president was also ruthless. That was why he could build up his business empire and make his pack one of the most powerful packs in the country in a short time.I was curious why they would let me be the president's PA. Af

Antoine's POV "Alpha, do you need me to leave the car for you?" Corey asked from the driver's seat. "No, I don't have other plans today. You can drive the car back," I said from the back seat. Corey was driving me to the house where Trinity lived. Although I might have to sleep on the couch, I still voluntarily asked Corey to drive there. Corey kept glancing at me from the rearview mirror. It attracted my attention. Finally, I couldn't stand it anymore and asked, "What the matter?"' Corey cleared his throat. " Alpha, why do you have to change your clothes every time you go there? And why do you live so far away from the city center? You have so many properties in the city." I gave him a severe glance. Corey felt the pressure and pressed his lips tight. He reluctantly turned his attention back to driving. After a while, he still couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked, "Alpha, why do you let her be your PA?" I glanced at him from the rearview mirror. "Aren't yo

Trinity's POVI looked at Gabriel and saw him nod slightly as Meadow spoke."Don't believe her. She's lying," I shouted in my heart.While Meadow was like being encouraged, she raised her head and glanced at me arrogantly.I felt frustrated and lowered my head. Tears welled up in my eyes.Why did they ask me to come over? To humiliate me again?When I was desperate, I heard Gabriel say, "You're very persuasive, Meadow. But I couldn't just listen to your words. Is there anyone who can prove what you said?"I raised my head to look at Gabriel in surprise. My feelings were complicated.Meadow's expression changed a little. "Many people know about it, including professors and students.""I need a name, Meadow," Gabriel insisted."I can't tell you the names, Mr. Glenn. It concerns their privacy. Please understand me," Meadow said carefully.Gabriel smiled. He held his two hands together and placed them on the table. "I know some professors at your university, and I have asked them about it

Trinity's POVAntoine didn't come back last night. I locked the door as he told me to.But part of me hoped that he would come back. Although I knew it was unlikely to happen, I still waited on the couch so that I could open the door as soon as possible.When I woke up the next morning on the couch, I tried to find a trace showing if Antoine had come back. But obviously, he didn't.I didn't know what he did and where he slept last night.But he had said that he didn't want me to interfere in his business. That was the deal we both agreed on.I sighed and shook my head lightly, trying to drive him out of my head.The scene last night kept reemerging in my head. It was so unreal, like a dream.But the bandage on my finger and the pain reminded me that it was real.I headed to the bathroom to wash up, changed my clothes, and ate breakfast.Then, I turned on my laptop to continue to look for a job.There were other design companies. I believed I could find a job somewhere else.An email c

Trinity's POVAfter we had finished dinner, Antoine took the plates to the kitchen and automatically began to wash them."You can just leave them in the basin," I said."It's fine. You've cooked the meal. I will do the washing," Antoine replied without raising his head.I was surprised to hear that they came out of Antoine's mouth.Donald had never gone into the kitchen. And he disdained those men who shared the responsibility of housework with their wives.Donald believed that housework was women's responsibility and men were supposed to focus on something more important, earning money, for example.But I disagreed. I thought a man couldn't succeed if he couldn't even take care of himself.Unfortunately, almost all the men in my pack thought the same.Although I thought my mother would be a better leader than Donald, she didn't have the chance to show her strength."Are you going to supervise me all the time?" Antoine's voice brought me back to my senses.I realized that I had actual

Trinity's POVAfter I left the Radiance Design, I immediately ran to catch the bus.I had to get back home before Antoine did, because I didn't want him to find out that I had come out to have the interview.Fortunately, when I arrived home, Antoine hadn't come home yet.It took me a longer time because I went to the supermarket on the way to buy some ingredients. There were so many things I needed to replenish the kitchen.I carried two large bags of ingredients when I got home. I threw my bag on the couch and immediately went to the kitchen.Antoine might come back at any time, so I needed to hurry.I was anxious when I was preparing dinner because I didn't know what would happen after he came back.Yesterday, he left in a rage. I didn't know if he had calmed down. Was he still angry at me? I was also afraid that he would ask me what I had done during the daytime. I was not good at lying, and I hated telling more lies.But gradually, my attention turned to cooking. I felt at ease w

Trinity's POVThe building of the Radiance Design was modern. I stood in front of the gate excitedly. In fact, I couldn't fall asleep last night after I received the email from the Radiance Design.Although I knew that Antoine would be mad at me if he knew that I had come. But it was my dream to work here. I didn't want to give up.At least, I wanted to have a try.I carefully prepared a portfolio of all my works at the university and left early in the morning to catch the bus.The Radiance Design was located in the city center, the most bustling area. It took me two hours by bus to get there.I didn't even have time to have breakfast. But I was too nervous to eat anything.Suddenly, I heard a hubbub.I turned in the direction of the noise and saw a group of people crowded in front of a car."Is there a star?" I guessed.After all, it was the Radiance Design. It had cooperation with many celebrities. It was normal to see stars and celebrities here. Some journalists or fans would wait
