Contract with Alpha Asher

Abigail’s POV.

I saw her smirk at me as my mate Christopher pulled her into a tight hug and planted a kiss on her lips as he murmured something into her ears.

Gosh! I was supposed to be out there dancing with him, not her!

We have been married for a few years, today making it the 5th year. Well, no child, which made others consider me as the “girl who wasn't good enough for their alpha.” I thought things were going to change, to get better, but no, it went from bad to worse after my mate's first love came back to the pack about a month ago. I now saw myself being sidelined.

It was our 5th anniversary, but no one noticed me. I was even starting to believe that Amanda, Chris's first love, was the wife and not me.

"Oh, you look good today, Luna.” I sighed as I looked up and saw Asher, my gamma, smiling at me.

“Please have this.” He said and passed me a glass of cocktail.

“Thanks.” I smiled, taking the glass, and I took a sip from the drink.

If no one was ever good to me, my gamma would definitely make a difference.

I didn't know why he was always good to me, but his support was almost enough for me to hold on.

“Why are you so beautiful?” I heard Chris say to Amanda from a distance, shifting my attention once again to their dancing figures.

Amanda giggled as she looked at me.

“Do you want to train with me later?” Asher asked.

“Yeah, sure.” I said, trying to hold myself from letting a tear fall down my eyes, I wasn't going to be the weak one.

Back then, when everyone wanted Chris to get a mate since he didn't have one, he had chosen Amanda, but she rejected him and chose a more older, powerful, and richer Alpha.

At that time I was still a normal human who had just finished college before I was bitten by Chris's father, which was considered a fucking mistake. I was brought to the pack when strange things started happening to me.

The stupid and native twenty-year-old me sensed Chris as my mate, and afterwards we got married.

It was funny how I was chosen to become the makeover, the side piece.

I helped him grow the pack and business, and when Chris became listed as one of the powerful Alpha's, Amanda came back to reap from where she sowed nothing, just because her Alpha went bankrupt.

“I want to fix this relationship, Amanda.” Amanda seemed to had said something, which I didn't hear, and Chris responded.

I lowered my heated face in embarrassment.

Clenching my jaws, I strengthened myself as I stood up. What the fucking heck did they want to fix?

I walked to them and said, “Amanda, what did you really come back to the pack to do? To take my mate or just for money? Are you so shameless to say to yourself, ‘He’s married, so I should find someone else?’ What do you take yourself for?” I said with a forced smile.

What did they think of me? A doormat they could just step on at any time?

“We actually should get her a more powerful alpha.” I turned to Chris as I added, “Right?” 

Both their jaws dropped, and Amanda let out a fake cry as tears started gathering in her eyes.

Wow! That was fast.

Just as he wanted to hold her,

“Chris?” I dragged his name, trying to suppress my wolf, Emily.

Chris snapped his head towards me as he glared.

Amanda ran off, and he went off with her.

It was the nerves for me.

Gosh I didn't know how long I was going to hold off.

“Luna, do you need me to walk you back to your room?” Asher walked to me and said, I smiled and walked towards the hall exit. There was no need for me to be there.

“I'm tired of our mate's behavior; there is just a little more I can take.” I heard Emi say.

Emi was not like the other wolves; she was like me; we couldn't take too much hurt from those we loved, but at times she was as powerful or even more powerful than an alpha could be, maybe because I was bitten. I didn't know why.

Just as I was about to climb the stairs, I felt a sharp pain in my belly as I gasped for air.

Gripping my stomach, I collapsed to the ground and Asher rushed over.

"Luna, are you okay?” I rushed to the bathroom and emptied my stomach in the toilet.

The pain went down for a while. I lifted myself and rinsed my mouth.

“Luna! Luna, are you okay?” Asher was outside the bathroom, knocking at the door. At least I still had one person who was worried about me.

I couldn't believe Chris would fuck Amanda again for the second time.

The first time he did, he promised it was a mistake and it was never going to happen again. Well, his promise held no water.

The Werewolf bond was something that could push you to the extreme. One could feel almost everything the partners felt, but the cheating part was the worst pain one could ever bear.

Amanda wasn't first the girl he fucked after we mated; I guess I was the only one who thought our relationship as “important”.

“I am fine.” I opened the door, and instead of our room, I went to the guest room. I didn't want to see them in the act.

“Luna, why are you in the guest room?” Asher asked. 

“Maybe I should stay here with you.” He said, and I turned to look at him, “I mean outside, don't worry, I won't let anyone in.” 

Jeez, if only my mate could understand me a little bit like Asher did.

Bittered and frustrated, I waited until morning but heard nothing from Chris. I took a bath. Thankfully, I had some clothes in the room, so I picked out a yellow dress and put it on.

“Good morning, Luna.” As soon as I opened the door, Asher’s voice greeted me.

Sometimes I really wondered why Asher was way too nice to me, and sometimes I felt like he was rather interested in me, like he had some sort of romantic feelings but I was his Alpha’s mate, so was that even possible?
