Raina.
"You promised me, Luke." I cried out from betrayal as tears ran down my cheeks, my heart tightening in pain as I watched my husband make love to the woman he promised to stay away from. "Can you blame me?" He questioned instead with a scoff, getting off Jane as I stood there with my mouth hanging open. I heard a slight Chuckle and turned to see the side of Jane's lips curling into a smirk. More tears rolled down my cheeks and I turned to run out when; "Wake up Rina, it's morning." I felt someone tapping me and flicked my eyelids open immediately to see Luke right in front of me. My eyes widened and I reared backwards in shock when my head hit the headboard and I hissed in pain. "Fuck! Sorry, now get up, you have a job to get to." Luke dismissed easily and I breathed out a sigh of relief. I raised my hand to my forehead to try and nurse the pain when I realized beads of sweats had gathered. That was how nervous I was. I tried getting up and hit the bed back immediately. My whole body suddenly felt sore, my sight blurry as my arms suddenly felt too heavy to move. 'Why was I feeling so tired all of a sudden?' I pondered, knowing this had to do with Lucy. My wolf. We weren't an omega, so we weren't supposed to feel this way, then what was going on? After a few more minutes of laying around, I finally got the strength to get up and made my way into the kitchen to make breakfast for the day. I lazed around, knowing I was so going to be late for work. As I broke some eggs into the pan, my father flashed through my mind and I paused, dropping my shoulders. My father, a very great warrior whom I admired so much passed away some years back. After my mother died, he raised me himself, giving me everything I needed but also training me to be the strongest version of myself, a warrior like he was. I chuckled bitterly wondering how he would react if he saw me right now. His beautiful, strong daughter now looking so old and submissive to her husband. "Well then I guess it's a good thing he died in the battlefield, sparing us such moments of shame." Lucy said and I held back a smile. "Isn't breakfast ready yet?" Luke yelled from the dinning and I hurriedly went about my duties. Ten minutes later, as I was setting the table, I remembered how I had turned like this. Luke and I weren't fated mates, but childhood sweethearts, who, after years of waiting and saw no signs of their mates, decided to get married and live happily ever after. Sadly, life didn't turn out that way because Luke changed completely after our wedding. At first, I endured but now I was starting to regret such an action of mine. First was his nonchalant behavior, followed by tons of debts he was owing. But because he was my husband and I didn't want to leave him to his fate, I had to take on multiple jobs to help him. I could cope at first but then battle work became too demanding. I am a Beta who became a warrior. I started to neglect my duties due to the other works I was keeping and soon got fired. Now I was reduced to this and doubt if the warrior inside of me still existed. "I am so sorry for last night and would love to make up for it." Luke suddenly said as he chewed on his toast and poured himself a cup of coffee. I was about to take a sip of water when I choked. 'What the hell did he just say?' I wondered. "It's nothing. Forget it." I told him and he frowned at me. "Nonsense. I shall not and I insist." He told me and I sighed, remembering how he always wanted to make it up to me but never actually does so. "It's okay really. Let's j...." I was about to say when; "How about we visit Alicia's grave together this afternoon to clean it up?" He suggested and I froze, my heart skipping a beat. "What?" I whispered, suddenly finding my mouth too heavy to say a word. 'He couldn't be serious, right?' I pondered, suddenly feeling a lump gathering at the back of my throat. Luke raised his eyebrows at me in question, taking a huge gulp of his coffee. "I am serious. You have always been going yourself for the past two years and I am so sorry I have been too weak-hearted to accompany you." Luke apologized as his eyes softened. My heart melted especially when he reached over and took my hand in his to sneeze, a slight smile playing at his lips. A genuine one this time that surprisingly made me feel safe. Tears of joy rushed to the brim of my eyelids but I blinked them back. 'Was the moongoddess finally answering my prayers?' "That will make me very much happy." I told him and he nodded at me, before continuing his meal while still holding my hand in his. Another beautiful gesture that made my heart soar with happiness. I suddenly forget about every bad thing he did, somehow seeing this gesture as a new beginning. Alicia was my daughter who I lost through miscarriage due to too much stress at work. Afterwards, the doctor diagnosed me with permanent infertility. I always felt Luke lost more interest in our marriage due to this which was why I was always doing everything in my best to please him. After all, he still stayed didn't he? Knowing I had no one but him. Other men would have left me right away or duped me. I always went to Alicia's grave alone and cried my heart out as Luke always refused to accompany me. "Investing too much emotion in a child who didn't even exist will only make me a lunatic like you. We have to move on!" were his exact words that broke my heart beyond repair. But now, he was healing the pieces slowly because he obviously still cared and believed in this marriage, which was why he was trying to save it.Narrator's POV Raina's eyes were fixed on the clock, her anxiety growing with each passing minute. Dorian was late, and she couldn't shake off the feeling that he'd changed his mind. The ticking of the clock sent shivers down her spine, and with each tick, the moment of her potential execution drew nearer."What's going to happen if Dorian changes his mind?" she wondered aloud. She needed revenge against Luke for hurting her and wanted to ensure he didn't have access to the trust fund. But with her life in jeopardy, she was uncertain how to stop him."Should I tell the doctor to call him?" she contemplated, just as the door opened and the doctor entered. She breathed a sigh of relief and demanded, "Where's Alpha Dorian?" "He stepped out," the doctor replied."Oh no," her wolf, Lucy, groaned. "It's over for us now!" Raina's wolf cried out in distress. "Calm down," Raina whispered to Lucy. "It's not over for us yet." She reassured her wolf.Turning to the doctor, Raina asked, "Can yo
Dorian's POV The fact that she was actually too inquisitive made me uncomfortable, and so I decided to leave the hospital. I'm trying to do nothing but pay off some old debt, and she's over there thinking that I'm actually falling for her or having an ulterior motive for helping. I don't blame her either; anyone in her shoes would think the same."Don't let any other person go in there to meet her," I instructed the doctor."What about her treatment?" the doctor demanded."Except for that purpose," I told him and he nodded in approval. "If at all she asks you that she wants to have a word with me, don't hesitating to call me, you get it?" I asked him."Yes your majesty, I'll call if she does." he told me." Good," I said.Just as I stepped out of the hospital, I walked to the garage where my driver was. "It's time to leave," I told him. "What about the girl?" he asked me. I know he's referring to Raina. But why's he too concerned about her?"She's fine," I told him. "I..." "She's
Raina's POV Alpha Dorian wants me to sign a contract marriage? Was that necessary? I mean, why should I even sign a contract marriage with him? This doesn't make sense, and he shouldn't have even thought about this. I've been sentenced to death already, and his choosing to do such might make the media start bringing up different news.they'll even start saying things that ain't true and I wonder how it's going to look like.I'll make him explain more things to me."I don't understand," I mumbled. "What don't you understand?" he asked back, but I couldn't even speak. I'm shell-shocked. "Without that, this won't be possible." He added. But this still doesn't explain anything.I've read books about contract marriage, but of course, at the end, some things do get screwed up and all of that. What's going to happen by the time people get to know that Dorian and I were in nothing but a contract marriage? Even if he's trying to help me, must it be this way? Can't he figure out another way
Raina's POV More words can't express how confused I was after hearing Alpha Dorian mentioned that it's not just about Levi and Luke. Who else? Why are these controversies suddenly arising, and why now? I had been living my life peacefully with minimal issues, but everything has suddenly taken a drastic turn. What's behind this sudden change, and why is it happening at this particular time? I'm seized with trepidation. Levi's my worst nightmare, while Luke is the one fighting tooth and nail to get rid of me. So if it's not just about these people, who else could be after my life? "I don't really get you," I said hesitantly. I needed more explanations. I want to know what's going on and the reason why everyone is after me. I've got no money, my dad wasn't popular at all, and I don't feel anything special about my existence that would spark all these rivals. "You don't have to understand me before you do the needful," he told me. "I insist," I told him. "This is the r
Levi's POV I bent her over the chair and held her neck tightly.Instantly, I reached down and carefully unzipped my pants, revealing my large cock.I removed her panties and for a while, I gaze at her back side.I think this woman is wonderfully created; there wasn't any mistake at all. Now I see why Luke is bent on remaining with her.I felt really hot as the woman who's nakedness I'm looking out right now, had just turned me on.And immediately, I started using my palms to rub her back side and then, I returned my gaze to Luke who's looking like someone who had been punch in the face.His face was red with rage, but the reality is, there's absolutely nothing he can do about it. He can't stop me, and that's a fact. I haven't even started, and he's already frowning – I guess someone is going to die from anger right this moment."You like what you see?''I asked him mockingly. He looked down, and I guess he couldn't bear the sight of what he was seeing right now.He couldn't believe
Levi's POV "Trying to play smart?" I asked him, enraged. "Holy shit!" he gasped. I couldn't believe that Luke was playing around with my intelligence. I gave him an easy task to go get Raina, and he refused. Rather, he chose to leave the house elsewhere, and now he's calling, telling Jane to fucking leave the house. What on earth does he fucking take me for? A fool? "So this is it, Luke?" I asked him, exasperated. "I've tried, and right now, there's obviously nothing I can do about it." He told me. Did he just say he tried? He fucking left his house down at the bar and just sat back there, thinking he was going to give me a damn call and tell me he tried to get her, but he wasn't. And maybe at the end, I'll tell him well done and ask him to leave_Fuck this bloody liar! "Do you think you can actually lie to me?" I asked him. "I'm not lying; I'm saying the truth," he told me. "You're saying the truth? Then tell me where the fuck you are now?" I demanded, seething. "That's n
