The Alpha's Contract Mate

Annabelle pov When I was five years old . My mother would always tell me that when I find my mate at the age of 16 . I will be complete and happy. She would later describe the details of a happy wedding day while getting married to your fated mate ! your one true love... She was wrong! She was definitely wrong . Today I'm getting married to a stranger to some one who might get me out of the problems my father created . My husband to be is not really a stranger but considering the circumstances surrounding the situation I would call him a stranger . I'm the new alpha of our pack . The Red Zodiac pack . The smallest pack in the state right now . My selfish father had looted all the funds and resources from the pack . Not only that but he did a lot of shady things that ruined the packs reputation to the extent of all the packs refusing to form a treaty with us .I'm not supposed to be the alpha of the pack because I'm wolfless but I'm the only heir left to the p

Annabelle "Marry me , "his rich deep voice startles me from my hospital bed. I look at him in shock. I was not expecting this to happen . He folds his tattooed arms across his chest and looks at me with his dark green eyes in expectancy. This is not something that I wanted right now considering the fact that I'm in a hospital bed.Any other deal would be better but I'm not going to marry a beast in disguise. "Excuse me , "I answer back in shock as I look at him with widened eyes. I finger the cold engagement ring on my other hand . Alot of thought went into this. Why would he want to marry me now ? I look at the man in front of me and he stares back at me with a patient face.He seriously thinks that we should marry . Hell no! He was there when my brother . He killed my brother and my father had a stroke through stroke . Everything is just so messed up and he wants to marry me . "I can't marry you I'm sorry , "I shake my head slowly. "you were willing to get married to

Annabelle pov Flash back "What is happening ? "I cough loudly as the smoke chokes me to death. The miracle fire that started at mid morning has sweeped through the entire pack house and now its approaching the forest. We call it the miracle fire because it basically has no source . It's like a wild fire! "Kane ! "I shout as I look around the foggy smoke that has risen up to the ceiling. The heat sweeps through the entire place and I feel like I'm dying . I can't leave without my twin brother. "Kane ! "I scream again as I hold my breath looking for him. I kick open the door and I almost die out of shock to see my brother lying unconscious on the floor with blood dripping from his chest . I almost lose my control when I see Jason standing just behind the body. My mouth quivers as no words can describe the feeling that I have . I drop my eyes on Jason and he looks at me with horror . I can't believe my best friend would lay a hand on my brother like that . I always tho

Annabelle pov The brunette woman holds her cheek soothingly like hot coal had just landed on her . I'm not one for violence but this woman had it coming for her . No matter what the gods whisper to me at this point I'm far from calm and collected. Her face contorts and twists to anger as she continues to touch her cheek. She looks at me with fire and rage in her eyes. "Did you just slap me ?! "she screams as her voice trembles. " I'm not -" I don't get to finish my last sentence when she also lands a hot slap on my cheek .My cheek tingles as the pain stings on my cheek . She grabs my hair and the excruciating pain travels down my whole body as I struggle to hold my head from being ripped off instantly. She pulls me like a ball stuck in a door and swings me like a base ball across the kitchen . She lets me go and my whole body propells and hits the corner of the wall. I scream loudly as my back hits the wall. My hair falls on my face as my whole body just slops down the flo

Anna pov "Ouch! " I scream as my eyebrows are being plucked mercilessly by Lana. I flinch away from her immediately the tweezers touch my skin. I'm not a make-up person and I thought by the looks of everything these girls had in their tiny little suitcase of cosmetics I would be in great hands but I was totally wrong. "I am really sorry, "Lana apologises and steps back with the tweezers in her hands. "It's okay, "I reply trying to hide the pain away from her ."I am very much fine. Just tone down a little. " "Alright, "she nods carefully and steps closer to finish doing my eyebrows. "So you are Jason's mate ? "she asks as she carefully tweezes my eyebrows this time. "No, he is not, "I simply answer with a deadpan look even though I'm completely taken off guard by her question. "But why are you two m
