All Chapters of Surrogate to the Blood Alpha: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Selena's POV“My King!”Rain had just opened his mouth to speak again, when suddenly a man appeared, who I instantly recognized. It was the same alpha wolf who’d been there when I woke up the first time.Elijah--- and I didn’t know his last name...“There’s a situation that needs your attention!”“Why do I have a feeling you’re only showing up when I’m spending time with my angel?” Rain groaned, and made a rumbling sound deep in his throat, that was pure annoyance. His attention was soon on me again, his fingers gently brushing an unruly strand of hair away from my face.I gulped hard once more...His presence had a strange, calming effect on me. Despite his ominous aura and powerful build, he somehow chased away the shadows of the past and made me feel safe and protected… And that was when I realized that I’d been desperately clutching ont

Selena's POV“Hmm, I knew you were perfect,” Rain grinned instead of answering. “You don’t beat around the bushes; I like it.” He then sat up and pulled the side table over, revealing a full English breakfast. Upon seeing it, my stomach rumbled, reminding me that I hadn’t eaten anything since the day before.I tried to restrain myself, but seeing all this delicious food and having the rich scent of bacon and eggs fill my nose, had my own primal side coming to the surface…I dived in!“Thanks, Elijah. That was all,” the alpha suddenly said coolly, and my head snapped up, barely aware that they’d been watching me. But Rain wanted me all to himself, the possessive and dangerous glint in his eyes speaking volumes. And like the wise man he was, the beta gave a curt nod before he turned and left.“Those men wanted me to send for my mate and bring her here,” Rain finally answered my question, surprising me. I didn’t honestly expe

Selena's POVDespite everything, I was still measuring all the interactions we had by the standards my father had forced upon me. To always weigh my words and find hidden meaning in every little gesture made.Because that was my life!Small hints and reading between the lines had kept me on edge, never being able to take anything at face value. Everything was done or said with hidden agendas, leaving me on guard 24/7. It had created a wall of distrust around my heart and mind of self-preservation. I had been so conditioned by my father’s abuse that I couldn’t see anything else…I didn’t want that for the rest of my life!Something in me shifted, as I realized something important. If I truly wanted to be free of my father’s rain and the golden cage he had built for me, then I couldn’t keep clinging to the mentality of a prisoner. I couldn’t keep living my life waiting for the next blow...I turned to Rain, a

Selena's POVThe King and Queen were already dead. Their daughter – no older than me – had been left to the vile swines my father commanded--- my heart constricted thinking about what she must have gone through. Mercifully – maybe – someone had run a knife through her heart, killing her…And then there was--- him!The Crown Prince…He’d barely been alive when my mother stopped his torture and my father ordered them to take him away. My mother had screamed at my father, calling him a traitor and a coward. And while they argued, I’d made my move!With my heart in my throat, I’d followed the guards, waiting for an opening. The halls had been littered with death and blood, making my young stomach turn and bile threatening to spill. But I bit it all back, picking up a discarded gun, and rushed after them. When they least expected it, I held up the gun--- and pulled the trigger!I killed for him…

Selena’s POVRain stormed in, and as the door closed behind him, I could hear the echoes of growls and cries, that sent a chill down my spine.Note to self...Don’t piss off Rain Blood!“Sorry for not coming by earlier,” he grumbled and--- and then just dropped himself onto the bed. Before I knew what was happening, he’d pulled down the duvet, leaving me squealing from the sudden cold of the hospital room.“Rain!”But he didn’t reply. Instead, he pulled his huge body onto the bed and was snuggling into me, hugging me like I was his goddess damned plushie or something.“What the---?!” I shrieked, but my voice was meek and breathless. My cheeks heated, and I had to bite back a scream. I’d never had a man in my bed – or this close to me before
