Alpha Chester's Obsession

Nora's POVHe grabbed my dress and ripped it off, revealing my stark nakedness. I felt exposed and alone. So, terribly alone."Hear ye!" The pudgy, bearded bellowed, arms outstretched. "I have come again, as I always do, and this time I have the choicest of slaves for you. Strong, agile and well-fed, the best you'd find anywhere. As you can see, she is young, undefiled and unsullied. She is a maiden of royal blood, the likes of which you'd never find again!"I gasped as the man pushed me towards the front of the platform in the middle of the marketplace. My hands were bound with chains, and so were my legs, so walking was extremely uncomfortable. Fear clogged my throat, but I tried to push past it, facing the crowd in all my shredded dignity.The slave master leaned towards me and whispered. "You'd better keep your eyes on the ground. No crying, no fighting, no fidgeting. You're a slave now, not fucking royalty. Do you hear me?"I mumbled in agreement."Good." He murmured, then plaste

Nora's POVI walked down the stairs slowly, taking my steps one at a time. My heart was shattered beyond pieces at the words Alina had spoken to me. They pierced my heart, every single one of those words. They reminded me of how big of a mistake I had made, how I'd let everyone down simply by existing.I reached the foot of the staircase, lifting the white dress I had on. The entire hall was silent; no fanfare or people waiting to wish me a happy married life.This was what I deserved. To be wedded off in the most shady, unimpressive way ever.There wasn't any cake, nor did any decorations hang from the walls. In fact, the hall was as bland as it could be.I turned to the maid behind me, moving to ask her where the wedding would hold, when a voice shut me up immediately."You're ready." The voice called, sending shivers down my spine. Alpha Chester emerged from the shadows to my left, walking towards me. He was decked out in an impressive white suit, his long locks held up in a slick

Nora's POVBefore he left the court room, I watched as the alpha grabbed my hand under the table, yanking me up. I could feel the gaze of every single person sitting around the table on me, and a blush creeped up my cheeks as I averted my eyes.I struggled to maintain a brave front as Alpha Chester pulled me along, my hand imprisoned in his unyielding grip. We left the room together, passing several maids and guards who stared at us with curiosity. The corridor seemed endless, the walls closing in on me as my heart raced with a mixture of fear and confusion.I struggled to keep up with him, as he was dragging me along without looking back. Several times I stumbled, gripping the walls for support, but Alpha Chester was relentless."Let go of me!" I finally spoke up, attempting to wrench my hand free from his grasp. Perhaps it was my courage to speak to him, or perhaps it was something else entirely, but Alpha Chester finally stopped and turned to me. His fingers tightened around my alr

NORA'S POV"You scheming, backstabbing scum!" Alina continued to scream. "You worthless runt of a wolf!"I couldn't reply her. All that came out of me were the tears that streamed down my face at her words. The things she was saying to me hit me like bricks against my fragile, ceramic heart. I had thought that she would somehow be able to forgive me, but all hope of that was lost now."Coward!" My father spat at me, his lips curled in disdain. He stood by the window, peering out at the carriage I had brought with me. "You even brought the royal guard with you, no? Too scared to come here on your own, aren't you?""Royal guard or not, I swear on the Goddess I'll tear her to shreds this instant!" Alina snarled.Her grip on my throat remained unrelenting as she hissed, "What are you looking for in our house, Nora? Are you here to do more damage than you've already done to my future? Are you here to gloat, to laugh and mock me, rub your victory in my face perhaps?"I struggled against her

Nora's POVAlpha Chester held on to my hand, leading me towards his chambers. I struggled with mixed emotions as we walked—I didn't know if I should be happy that he wasn't too angry, or if I should be worried. But his silence was scary and relieving at the same time.As the alpha led me through the dimly lit corridors of the pack house, his grip on my hand was firm, almost possessive. I had expected a much worse reaction to both my disobedience and the wounds on my face. My heart still pounded in my chest from the intensity of his rage back in the throne room. I had been terrified, my thoughts racing, and all I had wanted was to flee the room as fast as my legs could carry me.But then, when he had held my jaw in his large, powerful hand and inspected my wounds with a gentleness that contrasted with his earlier anger, I felt safe. Protected. I could still feel the graze of his fingers on my cheek, brushing away the trail of blood that had been running down my face.And at that moment
