A Bond Of Convenience

My hands quickly got soaked in red as my dagger struck home.His dick.Where all rapists deserve to be stabbed in. I wish I had the time to stuff it in his mouth but the guards will be here soon after hearing him scream.Looking at his squirming form on the ground for a few satisfying seconds, I picked up my bag and ran. A vibrating sound went through my jean pocket and I brought out the object.“Meet me at the river Arno, it will wash off your scent and lay them off.” A voice filtered in through the phone I had stolen.I didn't know who it was but I cut off the call without responding and continued towards the East where the river was located. At this stage, I might die before getting caught. Amongst all things I could possibly forget, I forgot my inhaler! With the wheezing sound of my breathing getting louder and louder, I was still about fifty away from the river. Just then, a sharp pain sliced past my ear.A bullet.They were armed.I looked back to see numerous shadows of men i

“Où est le marié?” The butler shouted in French, running around like he was the one getting married. For one, he was not the Alpha's father. But he fretted like a hen when it came to the Alpha. Even more shocking was that he's a human. I stared at his bald head reflecting the light from the chandelier and almost burst out laughing.This was not how I imagined my marriage would be.A grand ballroom, a thousand guests, a heavily diamond dotted dress and a missing groom.It was a perfect picture of chaos. The Alpha's entrance silenced the room in an instant as they watched him in awe.The butler was practically bouncing on his heels. “Alpha, we’ve been looking everywhere! Where…”“Got the rings?” the Alpha interrupted, not acknowledging his nervousness.The butler froze, his eyes wide. “Ah, yes, of course! Right here!” He handed over the small velvet box with a trembling hand.The Alpha took the box with a practiced ease, his gaze flicking briefly toward me before turning to the offic

The room erupted into chaos as Geraldine crumpled to the floor.My steps quickened and I was at her side in an instant, scooping her up into my arms. Her skin was cold, her body trembling violently. “Get the doctor, now!”I barked at the nearest servant, who hurried out of the room without hesitation. I laid her down gently on the couch, clenching my jaw. Her lips were already tinged with blue. “Stay with me,” I muttered under my breath, the words more a command than a plea. I didn't want to have to go over this again—getting married and all. She was the perfect specimen.The door burst open, and Gregory, my butler, stepped inside.“Alpha, what's wrong?” he asked, his voice low and worried. “She collapsed,” I replied curtly, my focus still on her fragile form. “Poison, most likely. Wolfsbane, if I had to guess.” Gregory nodded, already in motion. “I’ll gather the staff.” “Good,” I said, my tone ice-cold. “No one leaves this house until I find out who’s responsible.” The

I took a slow, steady breath, suppressing the storm of emotions raging within me. My humiliation was still fresh, raw, but I refused to let it consume me.Placing a serene, unreadable expression on my face, I turned to one of the nearby servants. "Where is the ladies' room?" My voice was cool, devoid of the anger I felt clawing at my insides. The young maid hesitated before quickly lowering her gaze. "This way, Lady Geraldine." Tch. Lady Geraldine? Not Luna huh?I nodded curtly and followed her out of the grand hall, ignoring the murmurs that followed in my wake. The moment I stepped into the luxurious powder room, I exhaled sharply. The room was lavishly decorated, with ornate mirrors, plush seating, and the lingering scent of lavender in the air. I gripped the edges of the marble sink, my fingers tightening as I glared at my reflection. My silver hair was still immaculately styled, my makeup flawless, but beneath the surface, all I felt was red hot fury. Amir had humiliate
