The car ride to the summit was silent. Cassian sat beside me in a black tuxedo, his eyes focused on the window, while Nicole sat with the driver at the front, fidgeting with his hands.

The summit was held in a neighbouring pack. The ten great packs took turns hosting it. I'd attended once, with my father before he died, as the daughter of the Beta. Now I rode in silence with my mate, the Alpha, as the Luna. It would've felt good if it was anyone but Cassian.

"We're here," Nicole announced, leaning forward in his seat.

About damn time. It was getting really annoying sitting in tense silence. The house was two stories tall, unlike Cassian’s; this house wasn't anything lavish.

The house was a towering Victorian beauty, all charm and mystery wrapped in wood and brown shiny paint. Its steep gabled roof cut sharply into the sky, and ornate trim curled like lace along the edges of the porch. Bay windows jutted, their glass panes catching the moonlight in quiet glints.

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me    Chapter 15: veiled threats

    Murmurs rippled across the room. Cassian's jaw ticked, but he said nothing. I smiled, not sweetly. "I appreciate the compliment, Alpha Serana," I said, letting my voice carry. "But effort was never necessary." That got a few chuckles. Some genuine. Some mocking. The atmosphere was tense as I held her gaze, unwilling to back down. Serana tilted her head, clearly not used to being answered. "We'll see if you carry that same confidence into the summit proceedings, Luna." "I don't wear confidence like a dress," I replied. "I bring it with me." Cassian's fingers tensed on the edge of the table, but he didn't correct me. "Enough posturing," Alpha Kaden, the man in the brown suit, the host, spoke again, leaning back in his chair, diffusing the tension a little. "We're not here for games. The rogue activity has increased in the South, and two border villages were attacked last week. We lost eight wolves, three of them children." The room went silent. Just like that, the politic

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me    Chapter 13: Cassian’s POV

    Cassian's POV "She picked a green dress," Kira reported, folding her arms in disapproval. "We tried to stop her, but she threatened to take away my freedom. I was so shocked. Her hostility is not Luna material." She averted her gaze to the ground. “What would the council say when they officially meet her?" I leaned back in my chair, staring up at the ceiling. Kira, Talia, the pack, rogues, pains in my fucking ass. "Say something, Cassian. You need to put her in check." Her loud voice scratched at my ears. Put her in check ? How exactly was I supposed to do that ? "She..." "Can you stop talking?" I interrupted. "I'm trying to think." I didn't look at her, didn't need to, but I heard her slump into her seat in defeat. My head hurt from all the paperwork I've had to deal with, meetings I've had to attend, and now this, Talia being a pain as usual. "We've had more rogue spotting in the past week than usual." "Cassian... Talia." I averted my gaze to her, fixing her with

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me    Chapter 12: know your place

    I hated shopping. Correction: I hated being forced to shop with two minions that made my life miserable. The boutique was obnoxiously luxurious, with marble floors, gold-accented mirrors, and racks upon racks of designer clothes that probably cost more than most wolves made in a month. Everything about it screamed elegance and wealth. Show-offs. "Alpha Cassian sent us ahead," Nicole told the sales assistant at the door, who immediately bowed and welcomed us in with a tight smile and too much enthusiasm. Kira strutted in like she owned the place, heels clacking, hips swaying, and eyes already scanning for the most expensive thing she couldn't afford. I followed after them, dragging my feet and trying not to look like a hostage. Because that's exactly what I was. A hostage. "This is where the Luna shops," Kira mocked with a smirk, her voice a little too loud. "Not some dusty thrift store in Rome." I ignored her, walking straight to the back where the racks were less flashy

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me    Chapter 11

    I woke up with a groan. I glanced around, frowning in confusion at the unfamiliar room. It was sleek and modern, with neutral walls, soft lighting, and minimal décor. The bed beneath me was large and firm, wrapped in crisp white sheets. A tall window let in filtered sunlight through sheer curtains, and a faint scent of sandalwood lingered in the air. Then it hit me. Cassian's pack house. His suite. My stomach sank. This wasn't a nightmare. It was real. I felt a tad bit lonely at the fact that Tasha wasn't here to drag me out of bed. Tasha. I was still mad at her for betraying me. I laid back down, looking up at the boring ceiling. A rasp knock on the door. I ignored it, turning to face the window. The person knocked again and tried to open the door. Thank heavens I had locked it the night before. "What ?" I called out in frustration. "It's 12 p.m. Why are you still in bed ?" An unfamiliar female voice called out. I frowned. I only wanted Tasha. She's the only person allo

  • Mated To The Alpha Who Bullied Me    Chapter 10

    I dragged my bags down the stairs, every thud of the wheels on the steps echoing like a slow drumbeat of defeat. My arms ached from the weight of the suitcase. My eyes burned, but the tears had dried up. I had nothing left to cry. No anger, no sadness. Just that cold, hollow silence that comes after the storm. Cassian was waiting by the front door, arms crossed, looking every bit the smug Alpha who got his way. I didn't spare him a glance, just completely ignored him. "Ready?" he asked, like this was a vacation. This was hell. I didn't respond. I pushed the door open, dragging my bag out like it carried the weight of my defeat. The black SUV idled in the driveway, sleek and ominous. A driver stood by, eyeing me with careful neutrality, as if he wasn't sure whether to bow or pretend I didn't exist. As if deciding, he bowed. Cassian came up behind me. "I said—" "I heard you," I muttered, cutting him off as I walked straight to the car. The driver opened the door and I slid
