THE CONTRACT WIFE OF THE DEMON WOLF HUNDRED AND THIRTEEN
Partners by ChoiceLENAThe council notice was still open on Aaron’s phone when we arrived at the meeting hall. The restrictions had not been approved, but families were already discussing how they would vote. Gary’s claims about my bloodline were being repeated as fact, and Aaron’s refusal to distance himself from me was being treated as proof that he could no longer lead.“I want to speak before they close the discussion,” I told Aaron.He looked at the notice again. “They may try to turn it into another argument about your abilities.”“They're already doing that. I can't stop them from asking questions, but I can stop them from pretending I haven't answered.”Aaron nodded. “I'll be beside you, not in front of you.”We entered the main hall together. Younger Alphas and business representatives had gathered near the front, while older families sat closest to the council table. A few people who had heard my previous address nodded; others avoided my eyes.I asked to speak before th

The Cost of Our ChoiceAARONThe council's announcement followed us out of the meeting hall. By the time we reached the car, my advisors were listing the routes and agreements at risk.“We need the full proposal before making changes,” I told them. “List every route that depends on those territories, including the smaller packs using our supply network.”One of my senior advisors opened his tablet. “The restrictions could affect three distribution centres, and two transport routes cross land controlled by Gary’s supporters. If they close access, we may have to use the eastern territories.”“That will add days to some deliveries,” another advisor said. “And the eastern packs don't have the capacity to take all the traffic.”I asked them to calculate the extra costs, identify affected contracts, and check how the restrictions might affect warriors moving between the estate and our outlying properties.“That is another problem,” the senior advisor said. “If access is limited, some patrol

The Wife They Called His WeaknessLENAGary’s statement had spread through the Alpha network before Aaron and I reached home. Every version carried the same claim: I had used my bloodline to control my husband, and Aaron was now too attached to me to govern properly.I read one post twice, then put my phone down.“He's turning your decision into proof that you can't think for yourself,” I said.Aaron removed his jacket. “That's what he wants people to believe.”“And he's making it about me. If I hadn't been there, he'd have found another reason to question you.”“He would have. But we don't have to let him choose how we respond.”“I could confront him. Make him explain these claims in front of the families he's been whispering to.”“And give him the personal argument he's trying to create?”“He is attacking our marriage.”“He is attacking both of us,” Aaron said. “Some families are asking whether I can govern without being influenced. Let them hear from you and judge what you actually

The Alliance That Demanded a LieAARONMarcus Vale did not wait for an answer. He walked farther into the study and took the chair opposite mine, as if the meeting had already been agreed upon.Lena remained beside me. My demon wolf reacted to the way Marcus had spoken about her, but I kept my hands at my sides.“You want me to distance the Krane family from my wife,” I said.“I want you to make a public distinction between your family and her bloodline,” Marcus replied. “You can remain married. No one is asking you to abandon her. But the Krane name must not be tied to whatever emerges from her abilities.”“That sounds like a distinction designed to fool people.”“It is a practical measure. Gary has made her a target, and several families are afraid of what she might become. If you continue standing beside her without qualification, they'll assume you share responsibility for anything she does.”Lena stepped forward. “Perhaps they should ask me what I intend to do instead of deciding

A Future Beyond the WarLENAThe Alpha estate stood behind tall iron gates, with armed warriors stationed along the drive and several expensive cars parked outside the main building. Aaron sat beside me in the back of our car, reading a message on his phone while I reviewed the notes my legal team had prepared for the meeting.“You have read that message three times,” I said.“Four,” he corrected without looking up.“Should I be worried about the message or the fact that you counted?”He put his phone away and turned to me. “Gary has been contacting the families attending today. I would rather know what he has told them before we walk into the room.”“And if he has already convinced them?”“Then we find out who can still think for themselves.”I laughed softly, and he reached for my hand. His thumb moved across my knuckles before he released me so the driver could open the door.The estate staff welcomed us with formal smiles and led us through a wide entrance hall into a sitting roo

A Son Used as a WeaponZAINThe announcement was scheduled for nine the next morning, and my father had already approved the wording. I read it in his office while he stood near the window, as if we were discussing a routine business decision rather than a public attack on Lena.The statement described me as a respected businessman concerned about the safety of the Alpha community. It claimed Lena’s supernatural abilities raised serious questions about her influence over players and club officials. There was no evidence attached, only carefully phrased accusations that would make people doubt her before they asked for proof.“You’ll speak first,” my father said. “Then the communications team will handle questions.”I put the pages on his desk. “I’m not endorsing this.”He turned from the window. “You haven’t even read the full briefing.”“I’ve read enough. The investigation has records of payments and contracts. It hasn’t proved that Lena coerced anyone. I won’t stand in front of a
