Not My Alpha: Fated Mistake のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

-Kira-Growing up with Kai and Caterina Volkov as parents made me excited to one day meet my mate. They’re inseparable; my father worships the ground my mother walks on and to this day he would burn down cities if she asked it of him.Being around their all-encompassing love and affection showed me what the Mate Bond should look and feel like. A standard on which I would base my own Bond. I couldn’t wait to be loved so fiercely; to have my mate look at me the way my father looks at my mother. I wanted the intoxicating feeling of being with my mate and knowing he feels the same.But when the time came, to say that it disappointed me is an understatement.I met my mate when I turned 18; spotted him from across the hall at the Convergence Ball and immediately felt the Mate Bond Sighting click. The pull was there, the utter need to submit to him blindly along with everything else. However, the second he looked away, that feeling went along with his gaze. This confused me at first because

-Kira-My heart is sitting in my throat. I don’t recognize the woman staring at me in the mirror; the grown-up woman who will no longer depend on her Pappa for protection. The adult who will become Luna to another Alpha in a few hours' time.My love for dancing will be a forgotten memory, my stuffed toy collection will be donated and my bedroom will be cleaned out. Kira Volkova, the Alpha Heir, will fall away, and Kira Helseth will take her place.I didn’t want a big wedding. I wanted the Volkov Mating Ceremony, but Adryan refused me. He said that I am to take his customs and forget about my own; it's the only reason I’m standing here being dolled up.The women who have tended to me and turned me into this stunning bride I don’t recognize, all leave the room and I see my mother walking up behind me. Caterina Volkova - the woman all the girls in our pack aspire to be. She was always my rock; the one person I could depend on through everything, and now she’s looking at me with tears ru

-Kira- I pride myself in not allowing the smile to waver on my lips when he mentions Arkyn’s name. He wants me to be with Arkyn? When did he decide this?“Pappa, Arkyn is my best friend!”He raises his eyebrow and smirks. “Hm, that’s not what I see when you two are together but let me keep quiet before I get into trouble with your mother.”Just then the door opens and my father’s smirk grows when my mother walks in with a look of disapproval on her face. “Kai, we’ve spoken about this-”“I know, little wolf, and I will keep my thoughts to myself from now on,” he says. Something tells me they’ve spoken about this topic many times before and I don’t know how I feel about that. Did my father know how I felt about Arkyn? Could he see the way Arkyn felt about me even though I was oblivious to it up until a few minutes ago?I can’t ask him more about this, because my mother walks over to me then and tuts when she sees my ruined make-up.“Oh, Kai, I told you not to make her cry!” she exclai

-Kira-They decorated the Hall of the Five in black, red, and gold. The Helseth family wanted to be the ones to fund the reception, while my family funded everything else. I must say that they’ve outdone themselves; a beautiful reception for a powerful wedding. This is what every bride dreams of… except I feel like I’m sitting with the wrong groom.I shouldn’t be looking their way, but my eyes keep on falling on them. Arkyn’s refusal to look at me all evening causes my heart to beat too fast for me to catch up with it. He’s the one who kissed me with his fiancee waiting for him, so why is he mad at me? What’s with the anger when he has someone else?This will all be over soon since our paths will go in different directions after today; I’ll be moving to Norway and he’ll be taking over as Alpha with a Luna in tow. Whatever happened in my bridal chamber should not have happened, no matter how right it felt.The added anxiety causes me to feel lightheaded and makes me forget Adryan is ri

-Kira-Today I woke up with an empty feeling right in the middle of my chest, it gnawed at my heart and left me breathless. Now as I watch my wedding dress disappear in a breath of flames, that emptiness has spread over my entire body.I feel numb, but I refuse to shed another tear./“We’ll be okay, Kira,”/ Yailyn, my wolf says with her ears flattened against her head. /“We’ll find a way back to our family.”/I sigh. /“I hope so. We’ll just have to be strong through this. We have good allies here.”/Luka has his arms wrapped protectively around me, but he’s not grieving like I am. He’s seething. After years of Luka not having a man to call his father, my uncle finally gave up on his search for his daughter, Kaia. Uncle Konstantin, aunt Lily, and Luka started getting closer, their bond repairing day by day. Until last night when we were both forced to flee our home. My father wanted us to run and not fight because he knew the hunters would overpower us. He knew he could trust the Vega
