CHAPTER SEVEN: UGLY. WEAK. NAIVE
When the door barged open, I wiped off the tears quickly from my eyes, hating to have anyone see me in that broken state. I forced out a rough smile, expecting to see the maid, June, but lo and behold, it was the wicked witch, his mistress; Ophelia.
My smile fell off my face, dread replacing whatever positive feeling I’d tried feigning.
Her raven black hair glistened under the bright lighting of the room and her blood-red lips parted into a wickedly beautiful smile, cat eyes gleaming.
"A pleasure to meet you again, Venice."
"Venus." I corrected, annoyance skittering down my straightened spine.
"You'll have to forgive me." She giggled lightly, eyes twinkling in mayhem. "My memory for useless information runs a little low."
Hurt flashed across my face and I sucked in a pained breath. "If…if you came in here to insult me, consider leaving my quarters, Ophelia."
She let up now, a small frown marring her face. "My apologies, f

FALLING FOR THE WRONG ALPHA CHAPTER EIGHT: SECOND PLACE
I had been too anxious and jumpy before and after getting jumped by Ophelia that I forgot to talk to Alpha Alexander about his overestimation of my bust and hip size. Every dress I had tried on was ill-fitting and unflattering when I looked at my already plain self in the mirror.I had tried countless times to get to talk to my mate after dinner, but he had an important meeting with an ambassador of the Whitefang pack and he wasn't going to be opportuned until late in the night.I had had breakfast by myself in my chambers earlier this morning but when I sought him out after, he was already getting whisked away by his Beta and officials, never even sparing a single glance at me. I only heard scratches of their conversations that involved dying crops and poisoned water in correspondence with the dead bodies that were being discovered in the backwoods end of West Crescent valley.I didn't want to burden him with my unnecessary complaints but I didn't want to roam
FALLING FOR THE WRONG ALPHA CHAPTER NINE: MY LUNA
I was sinking in a sea of soft silk, stuffed pillows and cotton candy, skating across the edge of consciousness and unconsciousness."Red." A firm, gruff voice called from somewhere in the murky darkness.I felt fingers trace my face, a palm cupped my cheek and a calloused thumb stroked it softly.I turned in my sleep, squeezing my eyes shut stubbornly, trying to cling on to my peaceful sleep and mumbling something unintelligible and grumpy under my breath that sounded eerily like ‘go away.’The hand disappeared and as much as I loved the touch, I loved my sleep better and I clung to it like I was holding on to my dear life."Red. Wake up."Something was tugging at my subconscious. Reminding me that I knew that voice, that I had to respond to his call but I turned to my side, hugging my pillow."Red. Do not make me call you again." He growled.My eyes snapped open at that commanding, authoritative voice. I knew who
FALLING FOR THE WRONG ALPHA CHAPTER TEN: FROZEN RAGE
Whatever existed between Alpha Alexander and me up in my room had successfully fizzled and died out the moment I crossed the threshold of the door. We were sitting together in the matte black limo with bulletproof doors and tinted windows and an engine that seemed to purr instead of roar.I have never been in a limo before.In my hands was a sweating can of coke. Diet coke; Alpha Alexander had said before plopping it into my lap. The kind that wouldn't make me get fat.He was back to his usual steely self now. A preoccupied scowl marred the clean-cut beauty of his face and his forehead was scrunched up in deep thought as he looked at the device in his hand, tapping briskly on the screen and a hologram appeared, a picturesque map of West Crescent Valley, it seemed, with areas in black, white, blue and green to signify the various packs in the valley.I have never seen a device like that and I had to fight against every cell in my body that strained to look
FALLING FOR THE WRONG ALPHA CHAPTER ELEVEN: REPLACEABLE WHORE
Contrary to what you might like to believe, I don't go fainting like a helpless damsel at the sight of every powerful Alpha turning his powers against disrespectful strangers.I knew that beyond the powers that was assigned to each pack, Alphas were blessed with other immense gifts that rivaled a regular werewolf, but seeing Alpha Alexander in action had triggered a dormant fear in me. It was easy to forget just how explosively mighty the Alpha’s powers were, especially since the man hardly used it in his everyday affairs.As shaken as I was, I was also quite pleased with the fact that he had done that for me. He hadn't done it to make a show of how powerful he was, he was just trying to protect me and make sure that I wasn't disrespected.My heart melted at that fact as I recalled last night when he had come to see me after the mall incident."Are you okay?" He had asked, a worried scowl marring his beautiful face. His blond hair was out of t
FALLING FOR THE WRONG ALPHA CHAPTER TWELVE: A FRIEND
I cried until my throat ached and my body quaked with sobs. I had never cried so hard. Not when Ivy tortured me. Not when my step siblings tormented me. Not when I was ridiculed by my peers back in Whitefang and not even when I learned that my father had died.Seconds dripped into minutes, which bled into hours and slipped into night.Alpha Alexander put the fury in furious, angrily banging on my door and yelling at me to "OPEN THE FUCKING DOOR, RED!"I squeezed myself harder, fat tears streaming down my cheeks and soaking up my pillow."Red, you do not keep the council waiting! This is unprofessional and uncalled for, unfit for the a Luna! This drama has to stop now! Red!"I waited as he kept pounding on the door, wriggling the door knob and letting me know how thoroughly unpleased he was with my over-dramatic attitude. And I think that was what hurt the most. The fact that he couldn't see that I was hurting. That I was suffering.In the en
FALLING FOR THE WRONG ALPHA CHAPTER THIRTEEN: WRATH AND HUGS
I swear he whirled in like a blistering hot sand storm, his expression mad as hell, his eyes blazing with fury."Leave!" He growled at June who squeaked, terrified, and scurried away, shutting the door behind her."You!" He looked at me, wrath pouring out of him. " Do you have any idea what you did? How stupid you made me look in front of my entire council?" He roared, getting in my face. "I had to apologize! Me! The alpha of the esteemed Silver Dawn pack apologized for your insolence!"My heart stuttered in my chest. But instead of fear, instead of terror, I felt something darker, sharper, fighting to break free in my chest and snap back at him.He ran his hands frustratedly through his thick golden hair and looked at me desperately. "I have tried. I am trying to make this transition smooth for you. Why won't you meet me half way? Why won't you take my hand? Do you think I deserve this? Do you think I deserve any of the shame and embarrassment you put me
FALLING FOR THE WRONG ALPHA CHAPTER FOURTEEN: HIS CINDERELLA
I took the first step and everyone seemed to track my movements with their eyes as I descended the grand steps but my eyes remained on one man only.My alpha.My mate.His eyes pulled me in alluringly, like in that moment, I was all that mattered. I let him guide me all the way to him until I was standing in his presence.Alpha Alexander was a beautiful man, I'll give him that. And tonight, he looked like he just stepped out of a fairy tale book. He looked like a prince of light his white tuxedo, with lapels embellished in rich gold. His shoulder length golden blonde hair was swept back from his face and tied into a neat man bun at the nape of his neck.He looked so clean and polished, I was honored to hold his attention. I was humbled to be in his presence. And if he was prince charming tonight, then I was Cinderella.His Cinderella.A nervous swarm of butterflies were fluttering restlessly in my stomach and anxiety inche
FALLING FOR THE WRONG ALPHA CHAPTER FIFTEEN: KNOW YOUR PLACE
"Alex!" A voice bellowed delightedly and Alpha Alexander whirled around, cutting short his discussion with an important council member.An uncharacteristic smile stretched his lips as he acknowledged the man before him.Except, I didn't notice the man because the lady standing right beside him, with the poise and regalia of a queen, swallowed up his presence.I couldn't look away from her daunting presence if I tried. Even the air seemed to still around her. She wasn't the most beautiful woman I have ever seen but she carried herself with a grace and charm that made her appear so.She looked like the goddess herself, in a luxurious silver flowing gown that billowed around her waist and shimmered and shone under the light of the room. Intricate designs were stitched into the bodice and she wore a circlet of silver on her white blonde head and made it look a crown. Calm gray eyes that made me think of a peaceful cloudy morning looked at me with so muc
