SELENA’S POV

My countenance fell, broken and humiliated. I stood watching him with tears welling up in my eyes. He didn't bulge one bit instead he squared his shoulders proudly and sat on the single sofa beside me.

“You know you don't have to speak low of me all the time. I am poor, yes. I know that but you don't have to rub it on my face all the time”.

“Well, that is what you are and that is exactly what you are”. He snarled, as if dark and shady.

I sulked in the last tears as my chest swelled with anger and frustration. Every single thought and image of him reminds me of Zevran. I hated Zevran with all my heart and right now If I got the chance to hurt him I would gladly do it. I blinked, steadying myself a bit. After a long pause he cleared his throat and continued.

“Your job is simple. Live with me in my room and act as my Luna. And you would help with my daughter's Luna bonding. Everything will be on contract no strings strictly business”. His lips tweaked as he said this. I looked at him closely. It was then I realized his uncanny resemblance with Zevran, my ex. Rude and arrogant, Alpha Cassian is everything Zevran and worse. I flickered.

“I don't even find you attractive in the first place”. I grumbled the words with my face turned to the side. Cassian grabbed the bottle of wine by his side as he turned it into a glass.

“Did you say something?” He questioned, his eyes daring me to say one more word but I didn't.

“I thought so. You will begin your work as soon as possible and you can move your rags tomorrow”. He frowned as he spoke the words to me. He lifted up his glass and clicked it with the air.

“I can't do that. I won't do that. And if you don't mind, I would like to take my leave”. I announced and grabbed my bag to leave. He didn't say a word or stop me until I grabbed the door knob ready to pull.

“You know you need this contract to save your dying aunty. You peasants always ruin opportunities. This is a platter for you and if I were you I would hope on it with both of my hands”. He flashed a scornful and treacherous smile at me. At the mention of my aunty my countenance eased a bit causing me to stop at the door and spun round to face him directly this time.

“How–how did you know about my sick aunty?” It was an honest question that deserved an answer but all I got was a snarling loud laughter that echoed through the walls and pillars of the palace.

“Sorrows you little piss of slime. Everything under the sun in this pack belongs to me and everyone whether human, werewolf or half werewolf just like you are mine. I run this town and you belong to me”. His eyes enlarged like saucers ready to pop out of their sockets. His intense gaze was icy and furious.

My nerves tightened as I balled my fist “you don't own me you hear me”.I screamed at the top of my voice, the echoes slapping back right into my head.

“Well, you have no choice young lady. You are mine and you will do what I want you to do”. He said pointing at me. My chest rose from anger and furry. He got up from his seat, he took sharp authoritative steps towards me closing the distance that once existed between us. He grabbed me by my chin and pinned me to the wall. His sweet smell wafted through my nostrils, a sweet smell of musk and wood. My jaw clenched as I tried to get off his grip but with every move I made he tightened his grip.

“You are hurting me”. I cried out but he didn't let go. As I stared into his eyes the image of him thrusting into that lady came to my mind.

“Leave my mom alone”. The tiny voice came from the inner balcony. Cassian and I looked up to see Sisi standing, her eyes reeled of innocence and empathy. The moment he heard her voice she let go of my throat and whatever plans he had of me suddenly dwindled. Breaking free from the grip I stepped aside.

“Sisi, I asked you to stay in your room didn't I?” He scolded her gently and with that little chance I walked off to the door and grabbed the knob.

“I hate you and I am not going to be your plaything”. I yelled at him and banged the door as I got out. As I ran off the palace the little girl's eyes taunted me with every blink I took. Her innocence was intense and one could see it from just the way she spoke. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me but the moment I saw the guards I stopped to compose myself before they noticed me. I walked fast with every step longer than the first. I could feel my heels hit the back of my head as I walked out in haste without watching my back.

I was out of the yard in no time and straight I boarded a cab home. I had just dropped off from the cab when my phone began to buzz like it was going to blow up. It could only be one person and I was sure my instincts wouldn't disappoint me. I rummaged through the tiny bag and the moment I grabbed the phone and cupped the top edge with my hand to reduce the sun reflection on the screen. I thought it was Eleanor. My heart raced fast and loud so that I could hear the palpitations in my own ears. I took the courage to answer the call.

“Hello Eleanor”. I answered sharply, her voice hoarse and muffled like she had been crying for days.

“Tomorrow is the deadline Selene and it's $100,000”, She broke down in tears, my heart sank like a shipwreck off the coast of Sardinia I was doomed.

  • The cruel alpha’s hired Luna   Chapter 218

    CASSIAN’S POVToday was a celebration of the victory of our great Alpha King Cassian. He has ruled with power and love. He has single-handedly conquered all the enemies that tried to surface or disrupt his reign. He has fought a good fight and he has worn all the battles that have come face-to-face with him. So today he deserves to celebrate being crowded with another rank as a warrior in the great land of the living. I was dressed in a black long dress, and my crown sat on my head beautifully with the diamonds glittering on it. My sister. Eleanor and my auntie and my baby Sisi, we’re all dressed for this ceremony.I walked over, stood on the balcony of the mansion, overlooking the park as the sun began to set. The air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming flowers and the sound of laughter and music. Today was a day of celebration, a day to mark the end of the turmoil and the beginning of a new era of peace and unity.The entire place was transformed, the trees adorned with col

  • The cruel alpha’s hired Luna   Chapter 217

    CASSIAN’S POVWith that, I got right into my truck and we’re on our way back to the pack. We drove in silence as I felt the gut in my chest or something I shouldn’t have done was forced to do because I know Zevran too much. He was going to kill me if I didn’t take the chance to do it first.“I am sorry, father, I went against your wish. I didn’t want to do it, but he made me do it.” “You can’t keep blaming yourself or what has happened my brother Zevran. He could've easily killed you if you gave him the chance to do so. He saw how serious he was all the plot and everything he had done to damage the image of this great pack. He deserves to die, and I know that even your father would not tolerate a wicked act of treason and trying to break out of the dungeon for a second chance”, Conrad didn’t hold his words for a minute. He made me realize why what I did was valid and I really appreciate his effort for fighting with me from the beginning till now.“Look around your Cassian, all your

    CASSIAN’S POVJust the moment we have been waiting . It came even earlier than we expected. Our helix flush the lights over all of Zevran's. I stood at the edge of the forest, my eyes scanning the darkness as the signal came in from my men. Zevran and his crew had made their move, escaping from the dungeon and fleeing into the woods. I felt a surge of adrenaline as I gave the order to my soldiers, my voice low and steady.I knew you had a perfect time. This was just the time for me to execute what I have been waiting to execute for the longest time. I didn’t want to give orders to shoot anyone at this time cause I wanted us to be clear on the same page. The car lights are still on flashing them while I they stood confused. Tell me what to do. Watching them look at themselves in confusion was just the perfect site. I wanted to see and give me so much fulfillment as I was able to outsmart them at the right time."Mount up, let's move."The response was immediate, my soldiers springing i

  • The cruel alpha’s hired Luna   Chapter 215

    ZEVRAN’S POVDid they finally come for us to run away? I have been patiently waiting for my man to come because I have been hearing the music play loud in the center where the party was happening. I had no idea what they were celebrating, but I know that it has to be big for that music to go loud. I started in the darkness, listening and waiting just for when I'd get the signal, but no one came. My heart began to rise very fast as though my men had betrayed me, and I was beginning to jump into a conclusion, even though I know that I'll never for anything forsake me, even if the others wanted to. At this point, I just couldn’t do any of mind-link because I had disconnected from them totally. I lay in the darkness of my cell, the sounds of the party drifting in from above. It was a cacophony of laughter and music, a celebration of life and freedom that seemed to mock me in my confinement. I could feel the vibrations of the music through the stone walls, the beat echoing through my chest

  • The cruel alpha’s hired Luna   Chapter 214

    CASSIAN’S POVI know that the decision I have taken to pin this man down was going to take a toll on me so I had to give him one more chance to prevent an essence. I quickly closed the map on the desk before leaving. I had to go pay my brother a courtesy visit. There has to be a way out of this. I don’t want to kill him even though he wants me dead by woman I still want to keep the words that I said to my father the promise that I gave my father, I want to keep it so instead of killing him, I would rather want him to be in himself for the rest of his life until the day the goddess chooses for him to die by himself. So with this in mind, I break up and warm my crown. I took myself of authority and walked out of my office, the guards by the side standing beside a doorbell to me and began to follow me. I didn’t ask them to go back as usual because I needed a dick to be with me at least. So we walked in our group down to. We reached the mouth of the dungeon and the soldiers. They opened t

  • The cruel alpha’s hired Luna   Chapter 213

    CASSIAN’S POVThe day has just begun outside. The sun was a bit bright. We had put everything in place just waiting for the final time to strike. I had to put some papers in order and just while I was sitting on my desk, in my office, Joanna walked into the room. She was elegantly dressed as usual, and her hair was told in bouncy coils down her shoulders. She had the perfect makeup on her face and her blue dress hanging over her body. She had a sweet corporate book that made her so special. “Oh! Joanna, you are here. Please have a seat”. I just talked quickly and she pulled out the seat right in front of her and sat down across from me, her eyes wise and knowing. I'd called her here to discuss the situation with Selena and the men from Zarrans Park."Joanna, I need to brief you on what's going on," I said, leaning forward. "Selena's been working undercover, gaining the trust of the men. She's found out they're planning to break Zevran out of the dungeon and flee."Joanna's eyes narro
