The Alpha's Surrogate Bride Chapter Hundred and thirty-four
CATHERINE'S POV As I entered the community meeting area, where pack members gathered for talks and declarations, I could feel a sense of anxiety in the air. As soon as I walked in, whispers and whispered talks stopped, and interested eyes looked at me. Skepticism and uncertainty weighed heavily on the air, like an unsaid query demanding a response.I felt the wave of unease that went through the group, a sign of their misgivings about my abrupt promotion to a leadership role. Many were confused by the swift change from a Luna behind confinement to a leader guiding the pack's future, and the doubt that pervaded the atmosphere was reflected in their gazes.The scrutiny became more intense as I got closer to the temporary platform where pack leaders normally addressed the members. The looks on the sea on faces ranged from mistrust to flat-out incredulity. It became very apparent how difficult it was for me to gain their trust.I inhaled deeply before going up on stage, with everyone in

Catherine’s POVThe day I turned 16 was the beginning of my woes. Every werewolf received the ability to transform on their sixteenth birthday, but I was the exception. The one they called 'Wolf-less'.My name is Catherine, I am part of the Crystal-Cloud pack and the first of two children. I was my parent's favorite child up until they realized that I had no hope of getting my wolf. Now, I am 23 years old and the laughingstock of the entire pack.For centuries, our pack was untouchable, but in recent years, we have been targeted by rogues and neighboring packs. In a bid to preserve what was left of us, our alpha made a deal with a powerful southern territory called the Blood-Slashing Pack. In exchange for their protection, we were to offer the most eligible female of our pack to become the wife of their alpha. My younger sister, Sarah was chosen to perform this task. She accepted her burden even though she was unhappy. As the day of her marriage drew near, her fear worsened, and so d

Catherine’s POVIs this finally happening?! Am I getting my one true mate after all these years of waiting?! Who would have thought that it was Kevin all along? The moon goddess has finally remembered me! I stood up excitedly and waited for him to walk over to me and claim me as his mate. He needed to mark me so that I will belong to him forever... but instead, he stood at the door, glaring at me. Glaring at me?I started walking towards him, but he lifted a hand in the air. "Stay right there!" He ordered, and I was forced to obey. He spat, "I cannot believe that after all these years, it turned out to be you". He said with so much disgust and disdain. "I..."He cut me short. "Let's get something straight here, I don't need a mate, I have already chosen someone for myself. And even if I wanted a mate, it wouldn't be you... a weak, wolf-less Luna? I will become the laughingstock of the entire pack."Hearing my mate say these words to me weakened my body. I moved back and landed on t

Catherine’s POVHe folded his hands on his chest and stroked his beard with one hand. His eyes scrutinized me as though he was staring deep into my soul. "I sent word that I would be running late tonight, why did you not wait at your pack, Miss Sarah?""I asked my father if I could come to you, and he accepted. What is the need for long formalities when all we need is each other? I am here now, am I not?"The man who brought me and Rose whispered something in Alpha Philip's ear and the latter nodded. He then turned his attention to me. "Very well then, come with me.""And my maid?" I pointed at Rose."William will take care of her" He signaled to the first man who then showed Rose to another car. Alpha Philip helped me into his vehicle and I sat on the soft chair. My back hurt from the long walk with Rose. The driver brought the car's engine to life, turned it around, and started heading toward Philip's pack.I'm sorry, Sarah, but one day you will understand why I had to lie to save

Catherine’s POVMy heart skipped a thousand beats as I moved away from him. "I... I'm sorry""Oh spare me the pretense! You must have thought to yourself that just because I have poor eyesight, I must be stupid as well". He took menacing steps toward me.I moved back until the bedpost stopped me from behind. "I never knew you had poor eyesight, I swear-""Silence! You thought you used me and deceived me, but the truth is I used you to get what I wanted, you were nothing but a pawn in my game." He gripped my chin firmly and threw me on the bed. "I never intended to use you, I promise...I, I... Please, have mercy-". My cries fell on deaf ears and my plea was cut short when his fangs grew out from his upper gum. He pressed his lips against mine, but instead of a kiss, he bit my lips with his fangs until they started to bleed. I could not cry out, nor could I push him away. He was too strong compared to my weak self. I could taste the metallic tang of blood on my tongue as he continued

Philip POVStaring at the window, my mind was clouded with so many thoughts and one of which was surprisingly Catherine. It has been three days since I had thrown her into the dungeon and while there had been nights, I thought of pulling her out, I couldn't fathom having her stay in the mansion with me. A knock suddenly came through and at my command, the door pulled open, revealing Williams stepping in. He had a scroll in his hands, which depicted that he was about to read to me, the events planned out for the next weeks to come; a system I had adopted to keep me updated with my pack."Alpha, Blood-Slashing Pack is scheduled to host the next annual werewolf conference; a gathering that would see several members of other packs make their way to your pack."As Williams read on, I realized that the event was going to bring several partnerships and further strengthen the relationship with other packs."Alpha?" I looked up to Williams, who had noticed I zoned out on him. "It says here tha

Catherine POVEverything felt like a dream. I didn't understand how Alpha Philip morphed from being the most ruthless being, who had treated me like a piece of baggage, to the nicest individual in the world. Without a doubt, I couldn't deny that he had so much effect on me. His aura screamed danger and at the same time was also alluring.As I delved into my meal, I realized that he may have had a sudden change of heart and this thought excited me a lot. It had been quite a long time since I had this much peace and it felt great again. Halfway towards finishing my meal, the door opened, revealing William. He stared at Alpha Philips, before bowing in courtesy."Apologies for intruding on Alpha, but there is a serious dispute that needs your wisdom at the chambers. Two women, who appeared to have been caught fighting over some random member of the pack, are here." I couldn't understand why women would fight over men. As William went on to explain the origin of the issue, I thought to

Catherine POVThe evening was drawing near and I simply watched through the window, the amazing effect of nature. The event of the afternoon had my mind hooked up for a moment. I wouldn't have imagined in a lifetime that I would feel comfortable with Phillips, but it was the case at this moment. He was slowly gaining my trust and I believed he could further show out his affection as well.The door opened and Rose stepped in looking stunning in her apparel. She had been given the maid's apparel to wear as I decided she would only answer to me alone, thereby ranking her as the most senior maid in the mansion."Greetings Luna.." I chuckled as she lowered her head to greet me. It usually sounds odd, to see Rose refer to me in that manner."Listen, Rose, you don't have to call me Luna like the rest. I mean we have been through a lot together these past few months and I wouldn't mind having someone beside me, who can be a friend other than Philips." I noticed a small twitch of a smile on he

CATHERINE'S POV I was faced with the enormous issue of bringing the pack together, which was weighing heavily on my mind. As two women propelled into roles of authority, Lizzie and I took the lead in this initiative, trying to mend the broken strands of trust and create a unity of sorts.Lizzie and I met in the large study, which was filled with expensive cherry furnishings and bookcases that held innumerable books. As we sat opposite from one another, the weight of duty falling on our heads like a thick blanket, the environment crackled with a feeling of purpose."I had not signed in for this one," Lizzie said, her resolve and doubt visible in her eyes. I sympathized with her; the unanticipated course of events had thrown us into unanticipated roles."Not a single of us did," I said, looking her in the eye. However, we have been given the responsibility of keeping this pack together. We must figure out how to make it function."The stone walls of the study, covered in the understand

Seeking a ray of light amid the ocean of sorrow, the weeping werewolves shifted their focus to me. I realized then and there that true leadership is a careful balance between sensitivity and power.I inhaled deeply, calling up the inner power, and entered the hallway prepared to face the obstacles that lay ahead. The mansion, which had once been a stronghold of authority, now served as a furnace whereby the pack's connections would be put to the proof and renewed.The force of the Luna cloak pressed down on me as I waited at the entrance to the magnificent assembly hall.

CATHERINE'S POV Every day that passed seemed like a lifetime spent inside the confines of my room. What had previously felt like a golden prison had become a painful expanse of loneliness over two weeks. Furnished with opulent furniture, the room had turned into a haven and a jail.With Ana, my darling little daughter curled up in my arms, there was only one thing to feel better in this stuffy environment. Her innocent look was blind to the struggle swirling inside of me as I attended to her needs, the burden of duty pressing down on me. Even with the room bathed in a subdued brightness from the glowing sunlight filtering through the drapes, the cold that persisted in my heart persisted.The loud ticking of the elaborate wall clock reverberated throughout the room, serving as a constant reminder that time was passing at an excruciatingly slow pace. Two weeks had passed between my fingers like sand grains, and I was left entangled in the opulent maze of affluence that had become a res

LIZZIE'S POVI jumped through the table, my chest still thumping from the rage, and the opulence of the mansion's dining room vanished behind me. I was drawn outside by the scent of the neighboring garden in the evening air. To process the storm of feelings Philip's plea had unleashed inside of me, I wanted the comfort of wide-open spaces.Stepping out of the warm shelter of the evening, I was met by the expansive estate stretching before me. The sky was tinted pink as well as orangeas the sun sank low in the horizon, creating a pleasant glow. I took cover from the deluge of contradictory ideas on a seat tucked away in the garden, the calming sounds of the natural world providing a moment's reprieve.My thoughts raced with questions as I sat down on the bench. What made Philip decide to stage his death t

PHILIP'S POV The sound of my footsteps reverberated across the lavish area, which was opposed to the secret choice I had chosen. Lizzie was sitting at the dining table staring at me expectantly and with anxiety in her eyes.I said, quietly but firmly, "Lizzie, we need to talk."A frown began to develop on her eyebrows as she lifted her head from her plate. Our dining room was spacious and well-furnished, which only served to heighten the significance of the talk that was about to take place."What's happening, Philip?" she said, searching my eyes for information.I sat down across opposite her, the enormity of the speech I intended to utter amplified by the oppressive quiet of the room. "I've accepted a choice, and that's significant because it includes the pack's safety and the possibility of Stanley's treason."Lizzie's eyes narrowed, a mixture of worry and fascination. "Exactly what somewhat choice?"Leaning forward, I placed my palms on the shiny dining tabletop. "I'm about to fa

PHILIP'S POV As I left my house and the small comforts of the family behind, I was met by lengthy shadows from the rising light and relentless trials ahead. Dissatisfaction echoed like spirits in the air, and the familiar smells of the complex told narratives of a pack in disorder.I couldn't stop thinking about Catherine's captivity in our house; the conflict between my responsibilities as an Alpha and a parent kept me restless all the time. I was having trouble sifting through the complicated web that had been created by the pack's requirements, Stanley's lurking danger, and Catherine's deceit.I could hear the pack members' disgruntled whispers as I strolled around the complex. With each second of hesitation that went by, the once-unwavering loyalty that held us together appeared to wane. As the second mate to Philip, I found myself in a difficult position where my loyalty was needed to balance the pack's expectations with Philip's unclear objectives.Beneath my skin was a seethin

LIZZIE'S POVMy wolf was aware of my uneasiness and was restless, just like me. An eerie silence had descended upon the pack ever since Catherine's duplicity was exposed, leaving me to deal with the unnerving fallout from my choice to reveal her.I had known all along just what I wanted to do: expose Catherine's betrayal, provoke Philip's fury, and see as he banishes her, cutting the treacherous thread that jeopardized the cohesion of our pack. However, when the days grew into evenings, the anticipated removal never occurred. Rather, Catherine stayed imprisoned within our Alpha's house, a live symbol of the treachery that hung over us like a shadow.My thoughts were tinged with doubt. Why was Philip so attached to Catherine, the beast who had woven a false web to get within our pack? Was he unaware of the threat she created, or was perhaps a more nuanced reality at play that I was unable to discern?I walked erratically into the center of the courtyard, a raging sea of questions racin
