NINA.

My eyelids stuck together when I tried to open them. My mouth was dry, like I’d swallowed dust. When I finally sat up, the blanket slid off my shoulders, and I realized fast this wasn’t my room.

The walls were different. The scent was different. The shirt I was wearing wasn’t mine. That’s when my stomach sank. Derek’s shirt. His bed.

“Fuck,” I whispered under my breath. My voice sounded hoarse and scratchy, I felt a heavy migraine in my head.

My head pounded in slow, heavy beats. I reached up to rub my temple and stared at the half-open door. The sound of something sizzling came from outside — a pan, probably. I dragged myself up, bare feet hitting the cool floor, and scanned the room for my clothes. My jeans were gone. My jacket too. My phone sat on the nightstand, plugged in. That was a Derek thing — he always did shit like that, like taking care of people without making a big deal about it.

I tried to remember last night. Pieces came back, blurry and uneven — the bar, the dri

  • The Alpha's Ice Queen   Chapter 205

    Nina's POV"How do you intend to resolve this issue?" I questioned, curious about his devious tactics. "This is a deal. How I intend to resolve it is my role to play." He answered. "Are you interested?" "Can you ask for something else in return for the favor?" I asked. Several thoughts ran through my mind as I stared at his desperate, sex-starved face. "All I want is your signature on the five-year sex contract. I have a meeting with my team. I have to return to my pack. Let me know if you're ready to save your little boy or not." A smirk danced on his lips as he said, his fingers tapping on the table to challenge the unusual silence that suddenly reigned. I heaved a deep breath as I concluded. "Fine. I'll sign the contract.""I have the printed copies. Place your signature and the Luna's private stamp on this. As soon as you do that, come with me and let's get this started." He said, his tone filled with desire. "This isn't the definition of friendship. You should be able to do

  • The Alpha's Ice Queen   Chapter 204

    Nina's POV"This is the most naive approach, Jace. Why would you assume that Nina's presence will convince me to change my mind?" His father fired at us. "I couldn't think of anything else," Jace gently admitted. "Please help me, father. This is a set-up. Declare me innocent and let's get this over with." "You are guilty, Jace. Aiden will seize the throne from you in two days if you can't get proof to show you're innocent." His voice was filled with rage and determination as Derek's words came to mind. He'd pledged to get this sorted out. But I would have to sign a three-year or a four-year contract with him. That sounded nasty and wicked. "Alright, dad. Thanks for refusing to help me. I know you've always hated me." Jace said. "We will leave now. But I will not step down from the seat. If Aiden wants to sit on the throne, he can wait till I am done. Perhaps in the next five decades." "See how nasty and rude you sound. Who would like to help you?" His father laughed at his face. I

  • The Alpha's Ice Queen   Chapter 203

    Nina's POV"It's a tough one. So I'm gonna give you some time to think about it. You know where to find me," Derek shook hands with me, offered a smile, and walked out of my room. I tried to call him back, but he was out of sight. I could have pinned him till Jace would arrive and see for himself. I locked the door and hurried to the restroom to have a quick shower. I needed to be ready. Jace would soon be here. Half an hour later, I came out of the restroom, wearing a light dress with no underwear. I'd expected to hear several knocks on the door but there was no one. The doorbell wasn't even rung. Jace wasn't coming anytime soon, or was I wrong?I picked up my cellphone and dialed his number. He didn't take the calls either. With a frustrated sigh, I smashed the phone to the bed, crashing onto the same bed as well, my eyes staring at the ceilings. And then a gentle knock came on the door, just as a smile crept to my chin. I ran to get the door open and my heart stopped when I reca

  • The Alpha's Ice Queen   Chapter 202

    Nina's POV"We're screwed, Nina. Where is your brother?" Jace slammed his fists on the table as he yelled. "Get out of here and find Killian. He must know how this happened!"I quickly got up from the seat, fazed by how desperate he was to get a solution to this. "How could my brother set you up? He wouldn't do that, you know?" "My brother, Aiden, and your brother, Killian, are the prime suspects. They both returned to the pack the night we were in the woods. We didn't return until the following morning. How could I have placed my stamp on this?" Jace retorted, his tone filled with anger and frustration. "I think you need to find a way to make Aiden confess that he did it. Killian wouldn't ever involve himself in this." I rolled my eyes up in my head. Perhaps this was why Killian was skeptical to work with him as the Beta of Velmora. "Listen to me, Nina," he rose up to his feet, his eyes filled with horror and panic, "I don't think you get it. If I go low, you go lower. We're in th

  • The Alpha's Ice Queen   Chapter 201

    Jace's POV"Do you have proof to show that you were absent from Velmora last night?" Aiden queried as he answered the question. "No, you don't have one proof. This is the reason why you won't win this case. I will advise you to do whatever father tells you to do, so things don't get complicated." "What are you talking about, Aiden?" I questioned, my eyes filled with confusion. "You don't sound shocked. You aren't surprised to know this. Are you?""Of course not. I was deeply sad to hear about the news of the passing of more than fifty wolves of this pack because you approved the killings. Go to the meeting and tell them whatever you can, but you can't win the case. I assure you." "Did you strike a deal with father?" I queried. That was all I could think of right now. My head was spinning. This wasn't sounding hilarious any further. My heart was beating fast. I was being falsely accused and my closest buddies weren't acting bothered. "Why would you say that?" Aiden sat up on the cha

  • The Alpha's Ice Queen   Chapter 200

    Jace's POV"That was so rough. We barely made it out of there." Nina ranted as we stepped out of the woods. It was dawn already. We weren't able to return to the pack last night because we couldn't find our way out. We could actually kill the rogues standing in our way but saving our energies and finding a safe place for the night looked like the better option. "It could have been much easier if Killian or Kate was around. Both are keen on saving me and you, respectively. But we did. The guards were functional. There were no casualties, especially because of the decision I made, which is to remain in the woods till the following morning." I replied to her. She didn't say anything else till we reached Velmora. The guards moved forward to ensure no one would approach us while some stayed behind. Smiles tugged at our lips as we realized the level of respect from the wolves of Velmora. It was outstanding. And leaders would be motivated to save and lead these people with honesty. "Where
