THE ALPHA CHOSE THE WRONG SISTER Chapter 72 — THE BOND WASN'T COMPLETE
I stared at Rhett, waiting for him to explain.“What is it?” I asked. “What do I need to know?”His fingers loosened around mine, but he didn’t let go completely. “The ceremony with Cassia wasn’t what everyone thinks.”I pulled my hand away. “You stood before the pack and accepted her. What else could it mean?”“I accepted her as my chosen mate. I didn’t complete the bond.”I frowned. “What are you talking about?”“I haven’t marked her, Nora.”For a moment, I couldn’t find an answer. I had watched him take Cassia’s hand. I had heard the elder announce them as the future couple. Everyone had celebrated as if their future had been settled.“You expect me to believe that?” I asked.“It’s the truth.”“Then why did you let everyone believe you were fully bound? Why did you stand there and let her celebrate?”Rhett dragged a hand over his face. “Because I had to.”“You always have a reason.”“My father threatened to send you away. He made it clear that if I refused the ceremony, you would b

Rowan touched my elbow again. “You should let the healer look at that wound.”“I said I’ll go in a moment.”“You’ve said that twice.”I looked at Rhett. “You don’t have to.”His eyes dropped to the blood on my knee. “You’re hurt, Nora.”“And you have Cassia to look after.” I moved away from him. “She’s the one you chose. Let Rowan help me.”Rhett’s jaw tightened. “This isn’t about Cassia.”“It always seems to be when you want something from me.”Rowan glanced between us, then offered me his arm. I accepted it, mostly because I wanted the conversation to end. Rhett didn’t stop us, but I could feel his gaze following me as we crossed the clearing.The healer’s shelter stood beside the training grounds. Rowan helped me onto a wooden bench while an elderly healer brought water and clean cloth.“Hold still,” she instructed, examining the cut on my knee.I winced as she cleaned it.“You were lucky,” she said. “A little deeper and you might have struggled to walk.”“I’m fine.”“That is what
THE ALPHA CHOSE THE WRONG SISTER Chapter 70 — The Victory She Couldn’t Bear
Marcus and his team arrived moments later. He pushed through the gathering and stepped forward. “Elder, that animal belongs to our team.” I turned towards him. “You weren’t there when I killed it.” “We were assigned as one team. Anything found during the hunt belongs to all of us.” The elder raised a hand. “Both of you will explain yourselves.” Marcus spoke first. He claimed I had left the team without permission and that they had been forced to search for me. He left out the part where they had mocked me, refused to follow the tracks and tried to take the animal by force. When he finished, the elder looked at me. “Is that true?” “I did leave the team,” I admitted. “But I didn’t abandon them. I found fresh tracks and asked them to follow. Marcus refused. They told me to go alone and said they wouldn’t come looking for me.” “That is a lie,” Marcus snapped. Rowan stepped forward. “I can confirm that he told her to go on alone. I heard him.” Rhett also spoke. “I found them sur

I should have been afraid. A part of me was. But the strange strength that had risen inside me while fighting the wolf had not completely disappeared. I could still feel it beneath my skin, waiting. “No,” I said. Marcus narrowed his eyes. “You think you can fight all of us?” “I don’t want to fight anyone. Just let me pass.” “Then leave the wolf.” I shook my head. For one brief moment, I wondered whether I should call for help. My horn was still hanging from my belt, but reaching for it would mean taking one hand off the animal. Marcus noticed my hesitation and smiled as if he had already won completely. He gave a short signal, and the others moved closer. I tightened my hands around the animal, refusing to step back. They were about to attack when a furious growl rolled through the trees. All four wolves turned. Rowan came charging towards us, his eyes fixed on Marcus and the others, anger written across his face. He came to a stop between me and Marcus, his chest rising as
THE ALPHA CHOSE THE WRONG SISTER Chapter 68 — The Wolf in the Forest
I turned sharply, raising my knife. A huge wolf stepped out from behind the trees. Its dark fur stood along its back, and its yellow eyes fixed on me. Saliva hung from its open jaws. It was larger than any wild animal I had ever seen, and the low growl coming from its throat made my stomach tighten. I took a step back. The wolf moved forward. “Stay away,” I whispered, though I knew it wouldn’t understand. It lowered its head and bared its teeth. I turned to run, but it sprang across my path and landed between me and the trail. I stumbled backwards, nearly falling over a root. There was nowhere to go. I raised my knife with both hands. It suddenly looked very small against the creature standing before me. I had no wolf. No claws. No strength like the other members of the pack. If that thing attacked me, I had no idea how I would survive. The wolf growled again. “Please,” I muttered, taking another step back. It lunged. I threw myself aside. Its teeth snapped shut where my
THE ALPHA CHOSE THE WRONG SISTER Chapter 67 — The Hunt Begins
The horn sounded again, and the contestants gathered before the elders.I stood with my assigned team, trying not to show how uncomfortable I felt. There were four wolves besides me. I recognised two of them from the training grounds, but neither had ever spoken to me kindly.One of them, a broad-shouldered warrior named Marcus, looked me up and down.“So they really put you with us?”I tightened my grip on my hunting knife. “It seems so.”He exchanged a look with the others. “Try not to slow us down, wolfless girl.”“I’ll do my best.”“That might not be enough.”Before I could answer, the elder overseeing the contest stepped forward. He explained the rules once more. Each team would enter a marked section of the forest and search for an animal. The team that returned with the most valuable catch before sunset would win. No one was to cross into another team’s territory, and anyone who encountered danger had to sound their horn.“Stay together,” the elder warned. “The forest is not a
