CONTRACTED TO THE BEAST ALPHA

"Thank the goddess, I finally found you!” Zora's husband exclaimed, his eyes locked on a red-haired woman entering the packed hall.Zora, standing right beside him, froze. Found who? No one had gone missing, at least not to her knowledge.Confused, she followed his gaze. The only person of note was a red-haired woman grinning from ear to ear beside an elderly Alpha, her father, Alpha David. The woman’s face beamed with excitement as she flashed a radiant smile in her husband’s direction.Today was their second wedding anniversary.“Who is this stunning woman? Why was her husband looking at her like that?”A wave of irritation and jealousy surged through Zora as she watched the woman, still smiling, make her way toward them.“Mate,” the woman whispered.A cold gust swept through the hall. Everyone turned to look at her then shifted their gaze to the Alpha Dane and Luna Zora.Colour drained from Zora’s face as her heart pounded violently in her chest. Is the moon goddess playing some ki

Tears streamed from her eyes as she held her stomach, unable to stand, as the pain both physical and emotional gripped her.The door suddenly burst open. Glenda entered, and Glenda's heart sank.Glenda stood frozen at the entrance, her face blank. Nothing could capture the disappointment she felt at that moment. Without saying a word, tears began dropping from her eyes. She cursed the day she’d given birth to Dane as she cried.Zora could barely stay upright. Lyliana could no longer hold her up, so Glenda rushed over to help.“Let’s get her to bed,” Glenda said gently, her voice laced with worry as she saw her daughter-in-law writhing in pain.They helped Zora to the bed. She collapsed, her body curling up as if trying to shield itself from the agony. She writhed in pain, her body twisting like a sheet of paper in the wind.Glenda watched helplessly, unsure what to do. She couldn’t bear the sight of Zora suffering like this. Her own heart broke as memories of her late husband flooded

Dane’s eyes turned crimson red as he stomped in. He rooted on the spot as he saw Alicia on the floor clutching her stomach. “Zora! What have you done to her?” He growled. Alicia, faking pain, raised one of her hands and said through her gritted teeth.“Don’t blame Luna Zora. I never wanted this. I begged her to let me go, but she refused. I told her I was pregnant, and she... she threatened to harm the baby. She did it, Alpha Danes. She hurt our baby.” Her words were laced with false tears, each one a knife twisting deeper into Zora’s heart.Zora’s world stopped. Her breath caught in her chest as the weight of what Alicia had said crushed her; Alicia was pregnant. For two years, Zora had been married to Danes, and she had never missed her period even once. They both desperately wanted a child; this resulted in carrying out many rituals. The ritual with the highest was the one on the last day that fell on their wedding anniversary. But Dane disappeared. He abandoned her because of th

Alicia began crawling backwards, fear engraved on her face, as she wanted to let her eyes meet Trent but she couldn't. The voice sounded familiar, but she couldn't look up to see who he was.“Who is he?” She muttered under her breath; her heart was thumping loudly. The tears that were streaming down her eyes were not pretentious. Everything about this man screamed danger, and her heart nearly came out of her mouth. She quickly mind-links Dane.“Mate! Please help, I'm with the visitor together with Zora. Zora told me to bring wine for the visitor, and I did,” she said to the mindlink.Dane could sense unease in her voice. Before he could ask if she was alright, Alicia had severed the link, causing Alpha Dane to panic. Though he felt no danger from Zora through the mark bond. But something was not adding up. His mate was in danger. He would have felt her pain if he had marked her; a werewolf couldn't mark two she-wolves at the same time. Since Zora had his mark. Alicia would forever b

Zora’s heart skipped a beat—she didn’t know what to expect. She stepped into the bathroom, which was as large as her bedroom back at Moonclaw Pack. If Trent wasn’t a blood-sucking bastard, this place would have been a dream come true. She was a gold digger; she had dreamed of building large wealth with Dane only for Dane to betray her with his mate. Her gaze swept over the expensive fixtures and glossy marble. She sighed. She had no idea how much pain she was about to endure under the vampire’s control.The Jacuzzi had already been prepared. Steam curled from the water’s surface. She dipped her hand into the soap as if she were checking her nightmare.Slowly, she undressed and sank into the warm tub. Memories of Moonclaw Pack washed over her like a wave. She wondered what kind of spell Alicia had cast on Dane or how strong the mate bond was to wish her death, and she burst into tears. She didn’t think anyone could hear her—not with the soundproofing in this luxurious prison.Her tea
