Alpha's Provisional Bride Chapter 1: THE GIFT
“Ding----” “$5,000,000 has arrived in your account 310-4xxx-718. Sender: Damion Green.” Sera, as usual, was returning from the pack hospital and was about to open the door when a text message caught her attention. Five million dollar and... Damion Five million dollars has been deposited into her bank account. Today is their third anniversary together. Three years ago she became the hostess of the packhouse. But, yeah, three years, and he hasn't honored her with the title of Luna. A bad feeling welled up inside Sera. Could it be that SHE… Sera wipes the thoughts out of her mind and walks through the packhouse and into their room. The moment he sees her, he smiles his sly smile. It melts her heart. She really does love him. Is this really about…to end? “Damion,” she starts, but he silences her with his hand. His eyes are full of lust; she knows the look well. They may not be a fated match, but under the covers, well, let’s just say no one’s complaining. Is she wrong about the
Alpha's Provisional Bride Chapter 2: THE PHONE CALL
Sera wakes up the next morning alone. She reaches for Damion but then the events from last night come crashing down. The gift. The good-bye sex. The romantic dinner.Miriam. Sera rolls over and sees her packed luggage. Yup. It’s all true. Damion’s true love is coming home and giving Sera the boot. Damion didn’t come back to their bed last night, probably out of respect for her. It’s easier this way. She’ll just grab a cup of coffee, make some calls, and then be on her way. She sits down to make her first call. The mindcall links to her mom, Trulia.Well, her adopted mom that is. They took her in when she was just a lone wolf-pup. They’ve always been the best parents to her; she’s never felt adopted or not wanted. However, being adopted makes her feel like she owes them a lot. She’s very grateful and she wants them to be proud of her. She wonders what her mom will think when she tells her the big news. “Sera, my darling. Lovely to hear from you. Is everything all right?” her mom
Alpha's Provisional Bride Chapter 3: THE VISIT
They pull up to Damion’s dad’s house. Stephen is a retired Alpha, and he and his Luna, June, moved here years ago when Damion took over the pack. It’s a cute cottage, nestled in a small village in the middle of a forest. They like the privacy and they like being close to nature. It’s peaceful. Sera has always enjoyed visiting Stephen and June – they’re both very sweet and have always been kind to her. It will be nice to see them one last time. Damion cuts the engine and Sera is just about to get out of the car when he tells her to open the glove compartment. Sera does as she’s asked. There’s a small blue, velvet box inside. “It’s my sapphire bracelet,” she says, recognizing the box immediately. “Why is it in the glove box?” “It’s the first gift I ever gave you,” Damion says, his green eyes sparkling. “Open it.” Sure enough, the stunning sapphire bracelet is nestled inside. “You never wore it. Why not?” He’s staring at her, his eyes intense. Sera’s confused. Why is he re-giving
Alpha's Provisional Bride Chapter 4: HERE SHE COMES
“I know all about his plans,” June says, as Sera tucks her into bed. She’s such a cute old woman, with her hair in curlers and her nightie pulled up to her neck. “What plans?” Sera asks, as she prepares some medicine for June. “He’s going to take her back, isn’t he? That Miriam?” So she does know, Sera sighs. She turns to June with a faint smile and nods. “Over my dead body,” June replies. Sera can’t help but smile. Even though she’s weak in bed with pneumonia, she’s still feisty as ever. “She’s selfish. I won’t let her come into this family.” “Take your medicine, June,” Sera tells her. June obeys, slamming back the medicine like a shot of tequila. Then she grabs Sera’s arm with a strength that surprises Sera. “We’re on your side,” June says, staring straight into Sera’s eyes. It’s almost too much for Sera. Such a kind, sweet woman. But there’s literally nothing anyone can do; Damion has made up his mind. “How long have you been sick?” Sera asks, trying to change the subject.
Alpha's Provisional Bride CHAPTER 5: TURNING POINTS
Damion heads straight for the front door with Sera trailing behind him. “Hold up there, Damion. Where are you off to, son? It’s late,” Stephen asks, obviously confused. “Miriam is back. She just landed. She’s upset and alone. I need to find her,” Damion replies. “Now? Well, where is she?” Stephen asks. He looks to Sera for answers. But Sera only shrugs. “I DON’T KNOW,” Damion yells, his voice filled with frustration and panic. He rushes out the front door without another word. Sera watches him leave then looks back to Stephen. There’s an awkward silence for a beat then- “Well, what are you waiting for? Go with him!” The last thing Sera wants to do is follow Damion around while he looks for his girlfriend. But Stephen is a powerful wolf – he demands respect. She can’t argue with him. Sera does as she’s told and reluctantly follows Damion into the dark driveway. The drive in complete silence. Sera doesn’t know what to say. Damion’s thoughts are on Miriam. The dark trees whiz by a
Alpha's Provisional Bride Chapter 6: Meet Miriam
“She’s not here either! Damn it!” Damion says, slamming his hand on the steering wheel. I was sure she’d be here. The new Beta’s house is dark and empty. Damion drives away, clearly frustrated. “She could be anywhere,” Sera sighs, also frustrated. They’d be driving around aimlessly. “There’s one more place she could be,” Damion states, pulling a U-turn in the middle of the road. They drive to the Wolf and Fiddle, a small pub near the pack border. Sera follows him inside and sure enough, Miriam is there, sitting at the counter, slumped over a martini glass. Several empty ones are strewn around her; clearly, she’s been drinking. “Miriam,” Damion exclaims, as relief washes over his face. When she hears her name, she turns around. It takes her eyes a few moments to focus, but then she topples off the bar stool and runs, clumsily, into Damion’s arms. She leaps up and he catches her, spinning her around like a scene from a movie. Sera watches
Alpha's Provisional Bride Chapter 7: Old Alpha’s Orders
“Sera? Are you okay?”Sera was crying loudly when Damion found her out in the street. The sounds of her sobs hurt him. He hadn’t meant to upset her.“Damion? What are you doing here? I’m fine, honestly! Go be with Miriam. She’s upset. Go comfort her,” Sera says, wiping away her tears with her sleeve.What is he doing out here? And now he’s caught me ugly crying! This is so embarrassing. She sniffs deeply and tries to regain her composure. “I’ve come to check on you,” he tells her. “And you don’t look fine.” He takes a step towards her but she takes a step back.“Nonsense. I’ll find my way home,” Sera says. “I’d really prefer to be alone right now.”“Father has sent someone to take you home. It’s late and it’s dark. I’ll wait with you.”They stand in awkward silence for a few minutes, with only the sound of Sera’s sniffles to break it up. But it’s not long before Mathew pulls up. Mathew sees them both and heads towards them, but Damion intersects them. He pulls M
Alpha's Provisional Bride Chapter 8: Time for Tea
“Let me take your temperature,” Sera says to June. June doesn’t look any sicker than she had when they’d left earlier, but Sera is still worried about her none-the-less. “It was so nice of you to come back. Wasn’t it nice of her, Stephen? Just to look after me?” June asks, trying to talk with the thermometer sticking out of her mouth. “Yes,” Sera smiles. “But please, keep your mouth closed so I can get a good read. I need to see if you have a fever.” They are sitting in the living room, tea and snacks spread out before them. Sera had thought it was a little odd, the late night spread. If June wasn’t feeling well, then why had she made them all snacks like this?And she really doesn’t seem sick. In fact, she seems happy. She was very enthusiastic to meet us at the door.“Don’t worry about Miriam. Mathew will bring her home. Let’s just enjoy our snacks. And each other’s company.” June is perched on the edge of the couch, smiling, even with the thermomete
