BRIDE OF WRATH
"You say it's not possible to have feelings for me before the wedding, yet your body language always seems to say the opposite when I'm close." I said seductively, picking a strand of golden hair.
"Like now," I tucked the hair in its rightful place, and she shuddered at the contact.
Ah. So I wasn't the only one feeling this pull…this… urge.
Tipping her chin up, I made her look at me.
"You're always so quick to run your mouth," I scolded. "But right now you're quiet. Why is that, Wildflower?"
"Stay back, Zeph." She said weakly.
"I don't think you want me to,"
I lowered till my lips were close to her ear. "Why… so… quiet?"
*****
Becoming the bride of the most desired and dangerous Alpha is no fairytale, but a bloody nightmare.
Lyla Gray, a young human woman, is taken from a life of poverty and dumped into a world of wealth and Lycans... sold into an arranged union with a man she neither trusts nor desires.
Her marriage to Zephyrus Wrath, the fearsome and filthy-rich Alpha of a dominant Lycan pack, is not born out of love, but forced by his pack’s traditions.
He never wanted a mate. But when duty calls, he bends to take a bride.
What he doesn’t expect is to want her.
Uncontrollably. Madly.
Yet even as the desire is evident between them, he refuses to force the bond. He wants Lyla to choose him willingly.
But Lyla is no calm, submissive woman. She challenges him at every turn, determined to frustrate him enough to make him back down and send her away. Yet in doing so, she draws dangerous attention to herself. Eyes that see her as ungrateful, as someone who should feel honored to be Zephyr’s 'Chosen'.

Chapter: A Moment of Clarity Muttering a curse under my breath, I adjusted the hem of my gown so I wouldn't trip as I made my way toward the exit, only to stop when two pairs of expensive stilettos stepped into my path. I looked up to find Christina standing before me, that same forced smile on her face. I groaned inwardly. Just what I needed. "Move aside. You're in my way," I said with a glare. Christina ignored me, glancing around instead. "Where's Zephyr?" "Don't know, don't care," I lied, folding my arms. She smirked. "Oh, really? Shouldn't you know the whereabouts of your future husband?" I sighed. "Do you actually want something, or are you just here to bitch around?" "Careful how you speak to me," she warned, her tone growing icy. "Zeph's not here to protect you, human. And trust me when I say, a whole lot of people here would gladly join me in ripping you apart. Females, mostly" The threat rattled me, but I hid the fact that it did, perfectly. Rolling my eyes, I replied. "If you won't move, I

Chapter: Prince Charming Minutes later, the blonde-haired Prince Charming walked out of the building, looking smug in a Tom Ford suit, the door shutting behind him. He glanced around in confusion, his eyes trying to see through the darkness outside, searching for whatever excuse had lured him outside. I wondered what Darius had told him. Just as he turned to head back in, I stepped out of the shadows, seizing him by surprise. I grabbed his arms from behind and slammed him into the brick wall, pressing the side of his face against it while locking both his arms behind his back. "Ow!" He groaned in pain. "What the fuck? Who are you? What do you want?" I ignored him, pulling him back only to slam him into the wall again. The crack of his nasal bone breaking was satisfying. "Oh, fuck! You're going to pay for this, whoever you are! I'll sue..." I wrenched him away from the wall, turning him to face me. His eyes widened in recognition, even through the pain. "Hey... wait. Aren't you the CEO of Wrath Pr

Chapter: Soirees and Satin ZEPHYR The mating bond had begun taking effect. But I fought it. Hard. Especially since things between Lyla and me had only gotten worse after the Darrin incident. Still, I knew it was only a matter of time before I gave in. Nature couldn't be cheated. I buried myself in work to keep my distance, but even that wasn't enough. No matter where I was, my mind remained divided. My body ached for her, craved her. The need to be near her, to touch her, to fuck her, was becoming unbearable. The sound of the door opening pulled me from my thoughts. Joan, my secretary, stepped in. "Just a reminder, sir, the Jackmans' soiree is later this evening." I'd completely forgotten. The Jackmans were a werewolf couple, known for hosting high-society events, including fundraisers for orphanages. I received their special invitation last week. But this particular soiree was geared towards helping a well-known werewolf pack overseas that had recently been hit hard by severe flooding, leaving many of

Chapter: The Wrath of ZephyrAll hell broke loose the moment Darrin and his men were out of earshot. Zephyr was angrier than I had ever seen him. His eyes were still red, and they flared as he turned to face me, his voice filled with frustration. "What the hell is wrong with you?!" he snapped, speaking through his teeth. "You're no beast, yet you're wilder than I am!" I remained where I was, quiet. I knew I'd potentially fucked up, and as a result of that, I had no will to defend myself... to reply wittily as I always did, because truly, there was nothing I could say in my defense.I'd disobeyed a direct instruction. A simple one. Stay indoors.And what had I done instead? Snooped around a political summit with literal Lycan mafia present… and nearly started a full-blown war between two packs.Because of me.Zephyr ran a hand through his dark hair, pacing restlessly. Angrily. "Do you have any idea what you've done?!" He questioned, facing me again. "Not only will he spread rumors about the Alpha's bride disre

Chapter: BargainsTHREE WEEKS LATERThe household was on edge. Every staff member looked apprehensive. Zephyr's employees were a mix of humans and wolves, but the tension among the wolves was especially high. According to Celine, the Alpha of a rival pack, along with his closest men, was arriving soon to negotiate with Zephyr. But when I asked Zephyr about it, he had given away nothing."Stay in your room until the meeting is over," he had ordered. "You mustn't be seen.""Why?" I had demanded. He hadn't answered, but instead, stared at me with those annoyingly dark, but mesmerizing green eyes before walking away. I flicked off the TV in my room and released a loud groan into my pillow. An hour had slowly dragged by, and I was bored out of my mind. How much longer was the darned meeting going to last? After enduring another unbearably long moment of rolling around in bed, I got up to sneak outside. At least I'd find some peace in the greenhouse or strolling through the gardens where no one would s

Chapter: Wildflower ZEPHYRDays passed, yet my feelings for Lyla didn't wane. Instead, they grew.It made no sense. Especially given how insufferably frustrating she'd become.She drove me mad. The woman was as stubborn as a mule, as sharp-tongued as a parrot. She defied me at every turn. What she was told not to do, she did. Where she was forbidden to go, she went.And yet, I found myself listening for the sound of her voice even when I swore I needed silence.I had just returned from a busy day at work, still dressed in my three-piece suit, when I heard the sound of laughter coming from outside. I moved to the window and looked down. Behold... Lyla was laughing. For the life of me, she was laughing. I blinked, momentarily questioning if I was imagining it. But no, it was real. I hadn't even noticed the smile creeping onto my face until I saw who she was with. Nik. The fleeting moment of happiness ended. The smile vanished as quickly as it had come.Why did she look so happy, so at ease with my
