  • TRAPPED WITH THE ALPHA WHO HATES ME   Chapter 13: Back home

    VeraWalking back into that palace after the trial felt like stepping into a house where everyone had already decided I was guilty anyway. The silver binding on my wrists caught the light with every movement, a constant reminder that I wasn’t free, I was just on a longer leash. My body ached from the dungeon, my mind felt raw, but I kept putting one foot in front of the other. For the baby or babies. For whatever scraps of hope I still had left when it came to Jade and Noah. Love made me stupid like that, even when I was broken in every way that counted.The halls seemed narrower than I remembered. Servants who used to nod or smile now stepped aside quickly, eyes glued to the floor like looking at me might get them in trouble. One young girl I’d shared kitchen shifts with pressed herself against the wall, lips tight.“Hey, Lila,” I said softly, trying for normal. “You okay?”She flinched. “I’m fine, Miss Vera. Please… just go, we’ve been told not to come close.”That one hurt more t

  • TRAPPED WITH THE ALPHA WHO HATES ME   Chapter 12: The Court Trial

    VeraThey dragged me through the palace halls in chains like I was already dead, and the worst part was how much the pack loved the show. My bare feet scraped against the cold marble, leaving faint streaks of dirt and dried blood. Every step sent the silver cuffs biting deeper into my wrists. Hundreds of eyes followed me—wolves lining both sides of the corridor, whispering, growling, some even smiling like it was Christmas morning. I could smell it all: the sharp tang of bloodlust, the sour edge of judgment, and underneath everything, that faint sweet warmth coming off my own skin. My pregnancy scent. Please, I thought, don’t let them catch it. Not here. Not yet.A woman near the front spat on the floor as I passed. “Poisoning bitch.”“Hope the Alpha rips your throat out himself,” someone else muttered louder.I kept my chin up, even though my legs felt like water. Sarcasm was the only weapon I had left. “Careful,” I called back, voice rough from days in the dungeon. “Keep talking lik

  • TRAPPED WITH THE ALPHA WHO HATES ME   Chapter 11: Royal Disaster

    VeraThe pain hit me so hard I woke up thinking someone had stabbed me from the inside.I curled on the floor, with both hands clutching my stomach while my whole body shook. The stone under me was cold enough to freeze bones, yet sweat soaked my neck and back like I’d been running for miles which made my hair clung to the back of my neck.“Great, now I’m dying too.”My muscles trembled like my bones were trying to rattle loose.“Okay… okay… breathe,” I muttered to the empty cell.Another stab of pain tore through my stomach.“Shit,” I hissed and sucked in a sharp breath. I pressed my palm harder against my abdomen. The heat there felt wrong. For a second I thought I imagined it.Then something fluttered under my hand.I froze.“No,” I whispered quickly. “No, no, no. That’s not possible.”Pregnant wolves didn’t feel pups move this early. Every idiot in the pack knew that. Hell, even the pack cooks knew that.But there it was again.A soft tiny movement. My heart slammed against my r

  • TRAPPED WITH THE ALPHA WHO HATES ME   Chapter 10: Leverage

    Vera If hell had a heartbeat, it would’ve matched mine that night. My whole cell felt too small for my own skin. The sweet-rot scent clung to me, thicker than the damp air, and every inhale made my stomach twist. I couldn’t tell if it was fear, nausea, or whatever was growing inside me deciding to make itself known. I pressed my palms to my knees and tried to breathe slow. It didn’t help. Nothing helped. Footsteps faded down the hall, leaving only the drip of water and my pulse kicking hard in my neck. Then a whisper cut through the dark. “Vera.” My head snapped up. Kieran crouched outside the bars, hood low, shadows swallowing half his face. The torch behind him made a soft halo around his shoulders, like the dungeon hadn’t figured out he didn’t belong in its filth. My lungs eased without permission. Stupid body. He leaned close. “Your scent is changing.” I swallowed hard. “I know.” “You’re pregnant. They’ll figure it out soon.” He said it gently, like he was afraid his v

  • TRAPPED WITH THE ALPHA WHO HATES ME   Chapter 9: Rot in the walls

    Vera The dungeon had its own sunrise. Not light—just the smell. When morning hit, the air thickened with mildew and rust, like the stones themselves were sweating. I woke to that smell and the familiar throb in my wrists from where the chains kept rubbing my skin raw. I didn’t even try to stand. My body refused. The floor was colder today, or maybe I was just losing heat. Either way, I lay there breathing slow because anything else made my stomach twist. I heard the footsteps before I saw the shadows. Heavy boots. Multiple pairs. Great. A welcoming party. The cell door screeched open and Jade walked in first like he owned the air. Beta Jarek followed, puffed up like he’d been begging someone to let him be important today. Two council members trailed behind them, carrying tablets and that self-righteous look people get when they’ve already decided you’re guilty. Jade folded his arms. “Start talking.” “What now?” I asked. My voice was rough, like it had scraped against gravel all n

  • TRAPPED WITH THE ALPHA WHO HATES ME   Chapter 8: The Cell That Tried to Eat Me Alive

    Vera The dungeon didn’t just smell like death..it smelled like the truth nobody wanted to hear. And of course I was the only one down here forced to inhale it. I woke up on what had to be the third day of being thrown in Jade’s personal hellhole. My whole body screamed at me. My back felt welded to the stone floor, and the chains around my wrists had carved grooves into my skin. Every time I moved, the metal pinched like it had Jade’s temper built into it. The air was thick. Damp. Moldy. And I could smell myself…sweat, fear, and the sour edge of old vomit. Pregnancy nausea didn’t care about dignity. It took whatever was left of me and said, “Yeah, let’s ruin that too.” I rolled onto my side and dry-heaved again. Nothing came out. There was nothing left to give. Just bile and this sharp pain cutting under my ribs. I pressed my palm to my stomach, breathing through my teeth. “If I’m pregnant,” I whispered into the dark, “this baby won’t survive down here.” Maybe that was the

    VeraFor a second, I didn’t know where I was. I wasn’t sure if I was alive or in that strange space between dreaming and dying. The floor under me was marble. My cheek stuck to it from dried sweat or maybe tears, I wasn’t sure which. I woke up choking on my own breath, cheek stuck to cold marble,

    VeraThey locked me out again.And this time, it wasn’t just them ignoring me or slamming a door in my face. It was real. They actually locked me out. In the middle of a storm that sounded like it could tear the whole house apart. I raised one hand to shield my face, like that would stop the rai

    VERA“Hello, murderer!”The door had just clicked shut when it slammed open again.Noah stormed in with rage like a thunderclap.And he held something tight in his fist enough to make the vein on his tiny wrist bulge.My heart dropped when I saw what it was. The second and last moonstone pendant th

    VERAI didn’t drug the Alphas, but try explaining that when the most powerful men in the Pack are dry-humping the wall. The platter slipped from my hands.“My…oh no!” I gasped, stepping back as ceramic shards scattered across the stone floor.My throat closed. The sound of the broken plates was sw
