The walk to the aircraft felt endless. Zora moved like a ghost beside Trent, her shoulders rigid and her face a carefully constructed mask that fooled no one. Every step away from the celebration felt like walking deeper into a nightmare she couldn't wake up from.

As they boarded Trent's private jet—just the two of them, affording them complete privacy—Zora's composure began to crack. The confined space seemed to amplify everything: her pain, her confusion, her growing sense of betrayal. She chose a seat as far from Trent as possible, turning toward the window and wrapping her arms around herself like armor.

Trent watched her retreat with calculating eyes. He settled into the seat across from her, close enough that she couldn't ignore his presence entirely.

"Zora," he said softly, his voice carrying none of the satisfaction from earlier. There was only gentle concern now, which somehow made everything worse.

She didn't respond, didn't even acknowledge he'd spoken. Her reflection in th

  • CONTRACTED TO THE BEAST ALPHA   Chapter 117

    When Trent shoved him out of the bathroom like a piece of unwanted garbage, Dane's humiliation was complete. He stumbled through the corridors of his own pack house, rage and self-loathing warring within him as he made his way to his quarters to change his soiled suit."I will get my revenge," the words echoed in his mind like a heartbeat. "If I destroy Trent, she'll have to come back to me."He had offered Zora a chance to return to him, had been willing to forgive and forget, but she had chosen to humiliate him instead.He tried to reach out to Alicia through their mindlink, needing her support, her reassurance that their plans could still work. But there was no response, just empty silence that added to his growing list of failures.After changing into a fresh suit, Dane returned to the grand hall, his composure carefully reconstructed but fragile. He immediately noticed that Alicia's seat was empty, and when she finally appeared, something was wrong.Her red hair was disheveled, h

  • CONTRACTED TO THE BEAST ALPHA   Chapter 116

    Zora had pledged her loyalty to the people of the Nightfall Pack and shared her blood with several prominent members—mostly Trent's warriors and Aman, though not Trent himself. He had been avoiding her, refusing any connection. Because of this, they couldn’t mindlink each other. Still, she could link with other pack members and pass messages to Trent if necessary.Zora wasn’t bothered by Alpha Trent’s distance; their marriage was nothing more than a formality. She had accepted her fate. Although she had taken up Luna duties, there wasn’t much for her to do. The Nightfall Pack had operated just fine without a Luna before—Alpha Trent oversaw everything efficiently, and nothing was lacking.As Zora walked around the pack grounds, the members welcomed her warmly. They were happy to see a caring woman stepping into the Luna role.The Nightfall Pack was far more peaceful than the Moonclaw Pack. Poverty was less common here compared to her ex-husband’s territory.Zora pushed open the door to

    “We’ve been here for two minutes, and you still don’t know how to welcome an Alpha,” said the Black man standing beside Alpha Tren“t. His eyes shot Alpha Dane a dagger.“I’m sorry, Brandon. The maids are on their way with the wine,” Dane replied, his voice unsteady; the aura emanating from them overshadowed him. He cursed their presence inwardly. The Moon Claw Pack was once a district under the Fang Pack. It's Alpha Macho, who had ruled with fear. No one dared challenge him. Dane’s father had tried—and paid with his life. After his father’s death, Dane stopped at nothing but to destroy Macho and sought help from the cursed Alpha of Nightflame Pack, Alpha Trent. With Trent’s help, Dane brought down Macho, and since then, his pack has risen to lead the districts.The presence of Dane’s blood ran cold. Trent never visited without a reason, and it was never a good one. He had never stepped into Moonclaw ever since the day he helped. Alpha Trent’s Beta, Brandon, glared at Dane. Dane clen

    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

    "Thank you," Zora said as she dabbed a towel on her wet hair. Despite her recent emotional turmoil, she still appreciated everything Trent had done for her.Her simple gratitude struck something primal in Trent. He had finished cleaning himself up first and had been scrolling through his phone on the bed, but her presence commanded all his attention.He tossed his phone aside and walked closer to her, taking the towel from her hands to continue drying her hair himself."I told you not to thank me again. And if you must, you need to learn how to do it properly," he said, his warm breath fanning against her ear.Her wolf stirred, responding to the jolt of electricity that crept up her spine.His proximity made Zora's heart flutter wildly as he worked the towel through her damp strands."I haven't dried my hair properly. I need to use the hair dryer," she said breathlessly."Leave it. It's not dripping, and I'm sure you don't want to take a break from this," he said, drawing her closer t
