POV: Selina
“I will not stand here and banter words with you, and I’m certainly not letting you get your greedy, filthy hands on my precious necklace. This is all I have left, and I’d rather die than give it to you!” I told her sternly, glaring daggers at her.
“Well, if death is what you seek, that can be arranged, Lina. After all, that was the plan initially. You were supposed to be taken back to our room where some guys were going to take turns to screw you and have it all recorded and forwarded to me. You were supposed to be killed last night, and if I had the chance, I’d fucking kill you myself.
But Dad wants you alive until he can get his hands on all the money in the bank. Once we have everything, then I will gladly grant your wish and end your pathetic life!” she let out furiously, glaring daggers at me.
“You already stole the company, the house, and my fucking boyfriend. This jewelry is all I have left because I can’t access the money in the bank until I’m married. You should have thought of that clause in the will before stealing my boyfriend. I will never let you get your hands on this necklace or my money.
You’ll have to kill me first to get it!” I told her firmly, glaring daggers at her for a few minutes before turning to the guards that had been standing there listening to us fight about money and prestige. I guess they must be used to these kinds of struggles among the rich people that they have to deal with every day because they did not interfere or even try to stop us.
“I think there has been a misunderstanding about my necklace, gentlemen. This is a gift from my mother, and it is very important to me. If you can take me to the Alpha, I’ll be glad to explain this to him personally,” I told them, smiling warmly.
“That is a lie; she is a thief and we caught her. It is our duty to our Alpha and to this pack to bring her to the Alpha,” Aunt Vera let out sternly, her glare fixed on me. She signaled Jackie, and she pulled out her phone and played a short clip for her to watch.
I stared at the screen in disbelief as I saw myself acting silly at our wedding party. It’s obvious that I was drunk as hell. They got me drunk and took pictures and videos of me flirting and making out with different men. It was so bad that I hugged myself in shame, feeling disgusting.
“There is more where this came from, dear sister. We have a video of you and a man in a room,” she let out mockingly, winking at me before turning off the phone and glaring dangerously at me. I fell to my knees, sobbing hysterically. It was at this moment that I realized that they had set me up in the room with that stranger who stole my innocence. Not only did they steal my house and company from me, but they set me up to lose the most precious thing to me: my virginity.
They say hell hath no fury like a woman scorned, and now I need to unleash my fury so I can move on with my life. In my heart, I have no family anymore. Every one of them is dead to me; I do not wish to be associated with them, and I’ll be damned if I let them steal anything else from me through blackmail.
“I will make you regret everything you ever did to me, and I will get back what is mine. That is a fucking promise!” I let out fiercely, smirking evilly as I thought of all the wicked things I wanted to do to her.
“Take off the necklace and admit that you are a common thief, else I’m posting your pictures and videos everywhere on the Internet.” She threatened proudly, stretching her hands to receive the necklace from me.
“Go to hell, Jackie, and take your boyfriend with you. Screw you, and screw him too!” I let out firmly as I turned towards the guards and let them lead me to the Alpha.
“YOU STUBBORN WENCH!” she yelled furiously and threw her purse at my back, aiming for my head. I had no idea what was happening until someone pushed me out of the way and the purse flew past my head, missing me by a split second. I looked at my savior, and I had no idea who he was, but all the guards seemed to be afraid of him, and they looked at him with respect.
“Ma’am!
It’s you!
Our boss has been searching for you everywhere!” he let out in surprise, breathing in relief.
“You have to come with me, ma’am; it’s very important,” he urged me, sounding urgent.
“Your aura is strong; who are you?” Richard asked him, staring at him curiously. He turned to Richard with a glare, looking at him as if he were not important to him. One of the guards whispered something to him that made him look down at my necklace, and his eyes widened in shock as he looked at me strangely, as if I were a fucking goddess that he had to worship.
“I am someone you don’t want to mess with, Sentinel Richard!” he responded to him, addressing him with authority like a fucking child. I felt his aura at that moment, and I realized that he was doing it on purpose, letting off his aura to subdue everyone in his presence. Everyone bowed their heads in respect… Everyone, except me.
For some weird reason, I wasn’t subdued by his aura, and I thought it would infuriate him and make him change his mind about saving me. But it only made him smile as he led me to the elevator, taking me to the top floor of the Alpha’s packhouse that no one in my family had ever stepped into.
“Thanks for saving me and taking me away from those people. But… W… Who are you?” I asked him curiously as the elevator went up.
“My name is Alvin, and I am the Alpha’s Gamma,” he told me proudly, smiling warmly at me. I wanted to make small talk and ask him why his boss had been looking for me, but something tells me that his boss may be the Alpha. I mean, the Gamma works for the Alpha, right?
If that’s true, then why the hell does the Alpha want to see me? What have I done?
I felt nervous despite the smile on Gamma Alvin's face, and I think he noticed it too because he kept chuckling softly as if he was enjoying my discomfort. We got to the top floor, and that only made me more nervous because everyone knows that this floor belongs to the Alpha. I turned to Alvin, and he had this stupid smirk on his face that did nothing to ease my nervousness at all. He pushed the door open and gestured for me to go in.
I walked in feeling so nervous, waiting to hear the Alpha yell at me for having a necklace that looks like his family heirloom, or maybe he’ll scold me for causing a scene at his party. I stood in the middle of the room, refusing to sit down until I’ve seen the Alpha. I was still standing when someone grabbed me roughly from behind and cuddled me to his chest like a baby, holding me like a fragile child.
“Hello, Tiger, why did you leave me like that and then come back looking so fucking sexy and sweet? Are you trying to drive me insane with lust? Do you realize that I have missed and yearned for you all day?” he asked in a hoarse tone that made my toes curl. I would recognize that voice anywhere. It’s him; it’s the same guy I spent the night with.
“Wait, is he the Alpha?” I asked in my mind as I turned to him and gasped in shock, my eyes looking right into his as he stared at me lustfully. God, he smells so fucking amazing, and I found myself squeezing my legs shut to curb my desires.
Damn, I’m burning for this guy!
I’m so fucking horny. The other guys left the room to carry out his orders and ensure everything is ready for the party. I was left alone with him as he cuddled me warmly. Then the weirdest thing happened when he spoke to me, making my eyes go wide immediately.
“I told you I was going to find you, didn’t I?” he teased, kissing my lips softly.
“Now, I’m supposed to ask you who you are and how you got into my room last night?
But I don’t fucking care; I just want to hold you in my arms and kiss your soft lips all day and all night long,” he confessed and brought his lips down to mine.
POV: ZoeyThe room was dimly lit, the afternoon sun filtering through the sheer curtains, casting a soft glow over the space. The air was thick with anticipation, as if the very walls were holding their breath. I stepped inside, my heart pounding in my chest, my mind racing with thoughts of the meeting I was about to have. The Alpha. The most powerful figure in our pack. I had been summoned, and even though I didn’t know why, my instincts told me it was important. But nothing could have prepared me for what awaited me.As I crossed the threshold, my eyes adjusted to the light, and there he was. Sitting in a plush armchair by the window, his broad shoulders filling the space, his presence commanding yet oddly familiar. My breath caught in my throat as recognition hit me like a freight train. It was him. The man from last night. The stranger I had met at the bar, the one whose eyes drew me in like a moth to a flame. The one I had taken back to my room, whose touch had set my body on fir

POV: Edmond“I’m so sorry, Eddie. I messed up last night. I couldn’t get the surrogate to come. She suddenly changed her mind and called off the deal.”“What the fuck are you talking about? Who canceled what deal?Are you drunk, Chris? Is it not too early to be drunk?” I asked him, almost laughing at him for not realizing that he failed me last night.“Come on, man, don’t be like that. I couldn’t find a replacement that fast. But I’m working on it as we speak, and by the end of the week, I would find a girl that is willing to bear your heir and pretend to be in love with you. Trust me, you won’t lose the company, I promise,” he told me, hanging up before I could tell him that the surrogate showed up last night and I had the best time of my life.For the first time in my life, I made love to a woman, and I loved it. All my life, I’ve had a phobia of girls because of the death of my parents. Dad was reckless with women; he made my mother cry always, and he eventually sent her to her dea
POV: Selina"Don't worry, sweetheart. You were just a little tipsy last night. But trust me, we had fun, dear. So much fun," he said nonchalantly, his eyes wandering over my body hungrily.My heart pounded in my chest as I struggled to process his words.Fun? Was that what he called it? My mind raced with doubts and questions, my body trembling with a mix of fear, guilt, and shame."No, this can't be happening. I didn't want this. I didn't consent to this," I whispered, my voice breaking with emotion. The man's smile faltered slightly, his expression turning cold and indifferent."Come on, sweetheart. Don't be like that. Of course, you consented to this; you even begged for more. You enjoyed it, trust me. Now sign this nondisclosure contract, and we can commence our relationship, and maybe we can go one more round before getting ready for my party," he insisted, moving closer to me with that same predatory glint in his eyes, wanting to seduce me and hopefully get me back to bed again
POV: Selena“You must think you are so lucky, Lina.You got yourself a millionaire from the bloodline of sentinels. This must be the best birthday gift ever, huh?Your mom is such a hero to get you such a cute and wealthy suitor. Have you told your boyfriend that your wolf is as tiny as a little puppy?” my sister asks me after Richard left to attend an important business meeting. “Keep running your mouth at me, Jackie, and I’ll make sure you don’t get a dime out of me when I get married to Richard!” I told her in a mocking tone, smirking evilly as Dad looked at me dangerously.“Married?You want to marry that man that you know nothing about?” he screamed at me, glaring dangerously at me. “Yes, Dad, I will marry him because Mom chose him for me. He wants us to be married in two days so we could attend Alpha Edmond’s party on Saturday,” I let out proudly, too excited to hide my feelings.“Yeah, I heard the Alpha is back too; I heard he has been in prison all this while and not on a bu
POV: Selena“Don’t cry for me, my little Lina. You will be well taken care of after I’m gone. Your father will take care of you, and on your eighteenth birthday, after your first shift and after you meet your wolf and unlock your gifts, someone will come for you. Someone special that deserves my precious daughter, someone that will take care of you and make you happy will come for you, my sweet baby girl,” Mom told me on her sick bed as I took care of her and prayed for her swift recovery.She made me promise to be nice to him, and she promised that he would never disappoint me on my eighteenth birthday; he would come for me. I did not take her words seriously. I didn’t even ask her who she was talking about and why he was coming for me. She hadn’t been well for years, so I put it down to her imagination running wild because of her sickness.Sure that couldn’t happen. I mean, she had been getting worse lately, and there is no telling what might happen to her. A few months after she to
