Arranged Bride For The Lycan King

ELINNAI should’ve known today would be a mess. Honestly, luck has never been on my side.Still, I kept hoping things would change. Just once. Just one good day. But today wasn’t that day.My name is Elinna Wright. I’m the bastard daughter of Alpha Tim Wright, leader of the Sunshine Pack. He never claimed me. I wasn’t born out of love—far from it.My mother died giving birth to me. My father blamed me for it. He hated me from the moment I took my first breath. He never showed me kindness, and things got worse after he married someone else.Early this morning, my step mother, Gina, had asked me to go to the farmers market to pick up some radishes..I'd never understood her obsession with radishes and they never made her cooking taste good..in fact, it tasted even worse than it normally was.As soon as I got to the market, the only shop that sold it was closed and I just stood there looking because I knew that if I went home without them, it would be hell.She hated me without bounds for

ELINNAThe moment Lily's eyes met mine, the world stopped. Her guilty expression told me everything I needed to know—this wasn't some accidental meeting. This was planned.Then Ben turned.His face changed too fast to catch—shock, irritation, then that smooth, practiced calm I'd come to recognize. The mask he wore when lying."Elinna," he began, already stepping toward me with outstretched hands.I didn't let him finish. The pain was a living thing, clawing up my throat, but I refused to break in front of them. Not here. Not like this.Lily's giggle followed me as I fled, the sound like shards of glass scraping against my ribs.Helen found me in the lobby bathroom, my trembling hands gripping the sink. The beautiful black dress—the one I'd chosen hoping Ben would finally propose—was now damp with tears."I'll kill him," Helen hissed, dabbing at my ruined makeup.I shook my head. "Don't." My voice surprised me—cold where it should have cracked. "They're not worth it."But the hollownes

My eyes caught a glimpse of the dress and I wondered what it was like. Gina hadn't called me when picking it out. She had in fact gone with the one person who wanted nothing good for me.Sarah.I stilled my mind as they began to move around and get my hair, make up and nails ready.What made me open my eyes was the strong smell of mist in front of me.“When your husband comes close to you tonight, at least he should smell something pleasant. Now, place your upper body closer to the dispenser and open your legs so I can place the other one.”My legs? For…oh.I felt myself turn red but I tried hard not to show it. I'd completely forgotten about that. Was I ready for it?This was one of the many times I wished my mother was here. She would have been the one to tell me about what to expect.She was presently too sick to talk and I didn't want to tell her about the marriage so it wouldn't upset her more.I put on the dress and it fit like a glove..I wonder how she got my measurements corre

ELINNAFOUR YEARS LATERI didn't expect it to be this sunny. After all, it had been a while since I'd been in the United States.It was rainy over in Europe, Berlin to be exact.Oh well, now that I was here, I'll take what I can get.The private jet landed just at the clock struck twelve but we had an early lunch because we had to wake up early that morning to meet up with the department time.“Welcome to the United States, Miss Wright.”I smiled at the pilot as he held out his hand for me to take as I descended the stairs.My bodyguard brought out our luggage and even though I had spent all my life here, it still felt like a foreign country to me.“Thank you, Lenny. I take it you'll be going back to Berlin now?”He smiled.“Far from it. You seem to forget that I am your personal pilot meaning that anywhere you are, I am. I am to wait for you to give me an order.”“Forgive me, I often forget.”From the distance, I could see the black car driving up to us.“Mum, can we go now? I'm goin

ELINNAThe covers were forcefully dragged from my body and the curtains were moved away, forcing light to pour into the room too quickly.“What on earth is going on? If it's not the end of the world, why are you waking me up so early? It's the damn weekend.”Lizzy dropped the covers on the floor.“I told you that you were going to be spending your entire day getting pampered. So get up, shower and get to the salon. Your appointment is soon.”After hating my life as much as I could, I finally sat up without even realizing that she was still standing there.When she saw my face, she screamed.“What is that on your face?!”There was no mirror around me so I couldn't tell what she was talking about.She pointed at me while walking closer.“You have eye bags. You have eye bags on the day that your skin should be very flawless. You're doing this to spite me, are you not?”I knew I'd have eye bags because I stayed up late with Chase, spending as much time with him as I could. He has barely b
