My Cruel Mate

Caliana's POV I felt the bed deepen on my side. There was someone in my room. I thought it was a dream, but the warm hands on my body proved that I had made a mistake. I jumped up and turned on the light. It was my stepbrother, Vince. He was drunk... again. "Get out," I growled, but he only smirked and approached me. I shivered when he grabbed my waist and pulled me to him. Vince forcefully plants kisses on my neck, and I fight him, my claws digging into his flesh, but he's too strong for me. Tears flood my eyes when he grabs my neck and throws me on the bed harshly. He gets over me and pins my hands over my head. As much as I kicked and screamed, no one came to my rescue. In a split moment, my wolf surfaced and let out a mighty growl that made the walls vibrate. Vince froze and looked at me with terror on his face. He jumped out of the bed and retreated to the door. "You... you... I thought you had no... no wolf," he stuttered. I always had a wolf, but I didn't let them know becau

Caliana's POV I felt an intensifying pain in my stomach as the hot tall man stood naked in my presence. My eyes shamelessly trailed to his cock. It was huge and long, by the way. This man's body was made of pure muscle; no doubt he worked out a lot, and his face, oh my goddess, he had nice, sharp features, but my gaze lingered on his cold eyes. They were a mesmerizing gray color, but they looked hopeless and bereft. I wanted to touch him and ask what was wrong, but I couldn't. After he was done assessing me, too, he walked majestically and stopped close to me. We were standing so close. His body radiated heat, and his scent, mixed with that of the woman he was fucking, and I wanted to punch them. My fists were clenched, and I shook in anger. 'Cali!' Screamed my inner wolf, and I flinched, clearing my throat. Before I could say a word to him, he shut the door in my face, and it registered to me. My mate is Alpha Edward Chasia, the cruel Alpha, and he didn't even acknowledge my presen

Caliana's POVI woke up the next morning with puffy eyes, showing how much I had cried. The door opened and I didn't have to remove the covers to know it was Juanita. The young girl's cheerful voice was enough to tell me, she came to tell me that breakfast would be ready in twenty minutes. I got up as soon as she left and took a shower, I wore a low-cut dress and fixed my hair and makeup most adhering, before I went downstairs. I hope they don't eat breakfast together too. Dinner is enough, goddess. Please do this solid for me and I'll forgive you for the situation you put me through. I prayed silently. My hands nervously tugged my dress as I went downstairs. I was dreading finding my mate or the brothers, even though Jamal is polite enough. I reached the dining room where the three brothers were sitting in their usual place. Unfortunately, Jamal was not around. "Good morning," I tried to sound as normal as I could. They nodded. Marcos even gave me a tiny smile. As I took my seat, m

Caliana's POV As I looked at my new Alpha defending me against this girl called Candace. I remembered what Marcus and Marcos said during breakfast, that she was his main whore. Hurt crossed my eyes and was then replaced by rage and anger. I politely excused myself, leaving him with the woman. "That vexing name is Candace, you'll do well to stay away from her, Luna," I turned around to face Aubrey. She was one of the super sweet ladies. My eyes went back to the group where Alpha Edward is, Candace standing close to him and touching him in the most subtle but sensual way. I felt disgusted and I had to prevent my wolf from coming out and ripping her arms off, but I was angrier at the man who allowed this to happen and is unable to push her away. How long will this continue, the disrespect... Will I ever get used to it? Does one ever get used to their mate, fraternizing with others? The music started to play and Jamal politely asked me to dance. I wanted to refuse but he was giving me

Caliana's POVThe Alpha was advancing toward me, his hatred-filled gaze was making me cower but I kept my eyes on him. I took a step back when he got close, making me hit something and I almost fell to the ground when I felt tingles erupt over my skin, I slowly opened my eyes, finding myself in his arms. My eyes get lost in his mesmerizing gaze. The world faded into oblivion and my wolf howled in excitement. "How cute," A voice said and he let me go as though I burnt him. I fell to the ground with a loud thud, making me hiss in pain. "Edward!" Jamal scolded. The Alpha's eyes were flickering between his original color and dark, showing me how angry he was. "Where the fuck did you go without informing anyone," He roared, making me yelp in fear. "I'm sorry, Alpha- Love," I couldn't formulate any words properly. "Love wanted to stay longer in the woods and I didn't realize it was dark already," I said, my throat tightening. He didn't say a word, just walked out of the room. My eyes met
