On her eighteenth birthday, Osline thought she would be mated to her long-time boyfriend, Noah. But the blood moon had other plans, and she ends up claimed by Jacob, the ruthless Alpha of the werewolf lands. When she tries to reject him, Jacob refuses. He traps her in a sixty-day contract and makes it clear: if she refuses, her father will die. Now Osline is trapped in his house, under his watchful eyes, with his dangerous twin brother Dominic who seemed to have an interest on her. Desire, betrayal, and secrets surround her—and Noah is not gone either. Three men want her, each for their own reasons. Who will win her heart, and will she survive the truth Jacob hides behind the locked door?
View MoreMy eyes moved from Dominic to Jacob as I took a bite out of my food.We were having lunch, and the silence was heavy. Dominic wore his usual smirk, but unlike before, it made me uneasy, almost as if he knew something. Maybe something about me and Noah.I had noticed the way he looked at us when he saw us together in the study room. It was almost like he suspected something, but I wouldn’t give him a reason to. It was already bad enough that I had dragged Noah into my mess. The last thing I wanted was for him to get into trouble because of me.I know that if Jacob or Dominic finds out anything about my past relationship with Noah, they won’t spare him. "You want more salad, Luna?" Dominic asked, breaking the silence. "I see you’re almost done with yours." He flashed me a smile as if trying to ease my racing heart"Yeah… umm… I’ll have a little," I said.He smirked and reached to serve me, but Jacob quickly stepped in. "I can do that for her." He snatched the serving spoon from Dominic
Why exactly did Jacob marry me?I’ve been thinking about it, but I can’t seem to make sense of it. I have nothing to offer him. I’m not rich, I’m not as pretty as the other girls, and I’m only an omega with no parents. And to top it all off, I’m not even from the same pack as him so why me?Now that I know the mate bond is not the reason for him marrying me, my mind keeps bouncing with so many thoughts. I know for sure it has something to do with the room he stopped me from entering, but I can’t figure out how. I mean, it’s just a room so how is it connected to me? I’ve been pacing around, my heart pounding in my chest as my thoughts spiral, but none of it makes sense. All I know is that there is a reason Jacob married me, and somehow, it’s connected to that room and Dominic knows. The more I thought about it, the more I felt tense. I just have to make a decision. I need to see what’s inside the room. I walked into the hallway. It was quiet and dim, and with each step I took towar
I paused for a moment, unsure whether to speak or wait for Jacob to speak. He looked really upset and it made me wonder if he heard the conversation but again Jacob always looks upset. Maybe he didn’t hear a thing, maybe he’s just upset that I was here and not in the room like I’m supposed to be. As my mind pounder with thoughts I was unsure off, Noah swooped in "There you have it Luna. He’s here." I turned my attention to Noah, slightly confused but then realized that he was trying to air the moment so Jacob won’t suspect a thing.Though, it’s shocking. This is the first time Noah has tried to eradicate a situation like this. I guess he’s scared of Jacob but why though? He’s just a man. Jacob didn’t bother saying a thing, he just held my hand and walked me out of the training room. "Were you looking for me?""Yeah, I didn’t see you when I woke so I was just wondering, nothing much," I said casually He looked at me as if he knew I was lying and just scoffed. "I don’t trust you bu
I survived the first day. Fifty-nine days more to go.I woke up extremely early and took a quick shower. Since Jacob hadn’t stayed in the room all day, I hurried, not wanting him to walk in on me.Once I finished dressing, I stepped out of the room. I had no idea where Alpha Jacob was, and honestly, I didn’t care to find out. As I walked down the stairs, I spotted a maid and approached her."Can you please tell me where the training center is?" I asked."Behind the backyard garden," She replied."Thanks," I said, starting to walk away, but she called after me, "Alpha Jacob isn’t there."Her words only made me feel better. I didn’t respond, heading straight for the training center.I had no interest in training or even being there—I was only going because I knew Noah would be. It was his usual morning routine.Last night, I couldn’t sleep properly. I kept thinking about Noah. Every time I started to drift off, I saw his face—how he had proposed to me, and then how he had lost hope in u
I didn’t end up meeting Noah that night. I couldn’t bear to look him in the eyes and tell him that I had accepted Alpha Jacob as my mate.There was no explanation that would make him believe it. No words could make this right. I still felt like I was losing my mind over it. Noah had proposed to me, and now here I was—bound to a man known for his cruelty, a man feared by everyone, and somehow… my mate.Alpha Jacob’s palace gate swung open, revealing the view of the castle. As the driver drove in, I took in my view, starting with the front garden and then the waterfall. The palace is intimidating, tall gates, guards everywhere, and walls that scream “you’re trapped.”The driver pulled the car to a stop in front of the mansion. Alpha Jacob stepped out and I did too. He placed his hand on my waist and I quickly tugged it away. He growled silently as if trying to tell me I belong to him. As we walked up the stairs, he leaned in and whispered "From this moment on, this is your home.""For
The look in Noah’s eyes broke my heart. This wasn’t how it was supposed to be. Noah should be my mate. Not him… not anyone.Suddenly, the Alpha grabbed my hand gently and guided me to the center of the festival.As if he already knew me and had been waiting for this moment, he said, "I, Alpha Jacob Arther, claim you, Osline Carter, as my mate and my Luna."My heart froze. Alpha Jacob? The same man Noah was working for? I’d heard so much about him, but this was the first time I was actually seeing him.A chill ran down my spine as the crowd gasped. Every eye was on me.My wolf stirred, wanting to say “yes” to make everything right, but I forced myself to stay silent. I can’t betray Noah.Alpha Jacob’s eyes stayed locked on me, unblinking. The crowd watched, and Noah’s gaze followed us. His eyes shimmered with tears before he turned and walked away.My heart dropped. I quickly yanked my hand free and ran toward Noah, who was moving out of the festival center."Noah!" I called, but he di
