Second chance with cursed Alpha king

Chapter 2Alba's POV I pushed open the door without looking back, ready to confront him for all the four years of silence I had endured.“Alba, why are you in my chambers when I haven’t sent for you?” he asked the second he saw me, enraged that I had shown my face when he didn’t want me to, when he was busy with his mistress, Veronica, to even recall that today was supposed to be our anniversary.I noticed the faint smile on her lips, how she looked triumphant, as if she had won a trophy.This same woman had broken up with Dante four years ago when his pack faced a crisis at the border which made the finances dwindle. She ran off with his previous beta who had also stolen from the pack treasury.I’ve always loved Dante and I thought staying and helping him heal from that betrayal, especially after I found out we were fated mates on the night of my eighteenth birthday, was going to be enough to prove my love and affection to him.I thought he would accept me after that. I thought he w

Chapter 4 Alba's POV I didn’t know what had led me into accusing Dante of being impotent, but hearing him expose that Veronica was already pregnant with an heir for him wasn’t what I had expected to find out.“Stop causing a scene here, Alba!” he suddenly shouted when he realized the extent of the damage he had caused himself.“Who wouldn’t want to have a lady like Veronica impregnated? She is a beta’s daughter and has highborn blood in her veins.

I’m all you have. Come to me now and I’ll put this behind us. Don’t forget you depend on me,” Dante said instead, forgetting the question he was asked.A cry almost escaped my lips but I forced myself and held it back

Alba’s POVThe drive to Marshall’s place took all night. I spent the time staring out the car window, watching the trees go by in a blur. I kept thinking about what I had done. I couldn't shake the feeling that I had made a huge mistake.I had left with nothing. No clothes, no money, nothing. Just the dress I wore to the ceremony and the mark on my neck that still felt like it was burning. I tried to calm myself down by pressing my fingers against the glass of the window, focusing on that instead of the panic in my chest.When we finally arrived, the sky was starting to get lighter. Marshall’s house was huge. It was made of stone. It looked like it had been carved right out of the earth. It was taller and wider than anything I had ever lived in. There were guards stationed around the walls, spaced evenly apart. They all bowed when Marshall’s car came through the gate.I was expecting to feel really tired when I got out of the car. What I felt was everyone staring at me. The servants s
