SELENE

I didn’t flinch. But inside of me, my stomach twisted. She’d come here to observe training. To understand her new pack. Not to be cornered by the Beta and her followers like prey.

“She’s delusional,” whispered another she-wolf who was standing across from us.

Before I could say anything, Mara slapped me and said, “How dare you want to compete with the beta?”

The others dragged me to my feet and grabbed my hair, pulling my head back, just as the doors opened.

The Alpha walked in.

His presence alone was scary, commanding and deadly.

“How dare you?” His voice dropped like a blade.

The girls froze.

I stayed on the floor, my hair tangled in Nina’s hand, my cheek still burning from the slap.

Then, like it had all been rehearsed, Evelyn’s voice cracked into a sob.

“She hit me!” she wailed, pointing at me. “She insulted me! She called me barren and said I was unfit to lead beside you! She said you will never love me”

My lips parted, too shocked to speak.

Zarek’s eyes narrowed, flicking

  • A Contract With An Alpha   Chapter 138

    ZAREKThe packhouse was unrecognizable when I reached it. Smoke curled into the night sky, the sharp tang of blood clinging to the air. My wolves’ howls had faded into silence, broken only by the crackle of flames and the sickening stench of death.I slammed the car door and ran, my heart in my throat, the bond with Selene stretching thin and fragile. She wasn’t here. She wasn’t anywhere.“Selene!” I roared, my voice shaking the night.The courtyard was a graveyard. Bodies littered the stone, rogues and wolves alike, their blood dark against the silver moonlight. My chest constricted as I stepped forward, scanning desperately for her, praying to the Moon Goddess for one glimpse—one sign.Instead, I found him.Luca lay at the steps of the packhouse, his blade fallen from his hand, his body broken. His chest was still, his eyes wide but glassy, fixed on a sky he could no longer see.I staggered toward him, dropping to my knees. My fingers shook as I closed his eyes, pressing my forehead

    SELENE“Selene,” Zarek called, his voice deep, commanding.“Alpha,” I answered, my voice low.He stepped into the room, his shoulders tense, his jaw set. I could tell something was wrong the second I saw him. His presence carried weight, but tonight there was something sharp in his eyes.“Your uncle just called me,” Zarek said. “Said rogues are gathering at the east docks. He swore it’s urgent, too many for him to handle alone.”My stomach twisted. Maximus. Always Maximus. I didn’t trust him, not with the way he looked at me, not with the way he whispered poison into the shadows of this pack.“Do you believe him?” I asked quietly.Zarek exhaled, dragging a hand down his face. “I don’t have a choice. If rogues slip past the docks and into the city, we’ll have more than rumors to deal with.” He glanced at me, softer this time. “It could be nothing, Selene. Or it could be everything. I have to check.”I wanted to argue, to grab his hand and beg him not to leave, but I knew the kind of Al

    In a dim alley on the city’s edge, where the streetlights flickered and the air reeked of damp stone, Evelyn leaned against a crumbling wall, her arms crossed, eyes scanning the shadows. Her jaw was tight, her dark braid fraying from a long night of moving unseen. Footsteps echoed, deliberate and heavy, and Uncle Maximus stepped into the faint light, his silver-streaked beard catching the glow. His broad frame loomed, his expression hard as granite.“You’re late,” Evelyn snapped, her voice low, sharp.Maximus smirked, unbothered. “Had to make sure no one followed. You’re not the only one with enemies, girl.”She straightened, her eyes narrowing. “I’m done waiting, Maximus. You promised me Luna if Selene’s out of the picture. So, what’s the plan?”He stepped closer, voice dropping to a gravelly whisper. “Selene’s the pack’s darling now, carrying Zarek’s heir. But that’s her weakness. The pack won’t follow a frail Luna or a distracted Alpha. We hit her where it hurts—make it look like a

    SELENEThe night deepened around us, the city’s hum fading into a gentle lull as the stars blinked awake above. The terrace was bathed in silver moonlight, the air cool against my skin, carrying the faint scent of jasmine from the gardens below. Zarek’s arm was still around me, his warmth anchoring me against the uncertainties that lingered in my heart. The bundle of baby clothes sat beside us, a quiet promise of the future, but in this moment, it was just us—Selene and Zarek, two souls tangled in love and longing.I turned my face toward him, my lips brushing the edge of his jaw. His breath hitched, a subtle shift that sent a spark through me. His eyes met mine, dark and molten, reflecting the starlight and something deeper, something hungry. The weight of the day—the woman’s grief, the city’s hopes, the flutter of our child—seemed to melt away, leaving only the pull between us.“Selene,” he murmured, his voice low, rough, like a prayer he wasn’t sure he deserved to speak.I didn’t a

    SELENE“Do I have to worry?” I asked, my voice low.Zarek’s hand didn’t leave me, not even after his words had steadied the storm Mira left behind. His palm remained over the curve of my stomach, as though he could shield the tiny heartbeat inside from shadows, from fear, from fate itself.“No,” he repeated, softer now. “You don’t have to worry. Not about her. Not about anyone.”The finality in his tone cut through the haze, and for the first time in hours, my chest loosened. My gaze fell to where his hand rested against me, and a small, unbidden smile trembled at my lips.“You sound so certain,” I whispered.“I am.” His eyes, dark and steady, met mine without wavering. “The only thing that matters is here, Selene. You. Our child. That’s the only future I’m building.”I let myself lean against him then, exhaustion and relief tangling in my bones. His scent, warm and familiar, surrounded me, and for a fleeting moment, the world outside that office no longer mattered.The following day

    SeleneThe stone steps of Dark Vale’s keep were cold beneath my slippers as I descended into the lower hall, torchlight throwing jagged shadows across the walls. The air was sharp with the lingering bite of winter, and the silence carried a heaviness I had learned not to ignore.And then I saw her.Mira.Standing as if she owned the place, cloak trailing behind her like spilled ink, amber eyes glittering in the firelight. She looked at ease in the shadows, too at ease, as though she belonged in them more than she ever could in the daylight.My jaw tightened.“What are you doing here?” I asked, my voice sharper than I intended.Her head turned lazily, the curve of her lips tilting into something that might have been called a smile if it weren’t so cold. “I had business with your husband,” she said smoothly. “Nothing that concerns you.”The words sliced through me like a blade, and my hand curled against the stone banister. “Nothing that concerns me? You walk into my keep, into my home,
