Semua Bab The Lycan Kingpin's Captive: A Baby For The Beast: Bab 11 - Bab 20

These massive gunmetal gray forged iron gates always make me roll my eyes - the Elders don’t even try to be covert with their wealth. Scoffing, I think about how this gate alone could finance a small pack for three years.The four old wolves who serve as our pack advisors are supposed to be just that, but they’ve taken it upon themselves to govern us alone. They had my grandfather under their thumb, as well as my father, but I have refused to bend to their will.I think it’s why they don’t like me and Bastien - while I continue to run my pack as I please, Bastien left to establish one in Sin City. We’re the only Ioannides heirs left, so they can only complain so much.However, their recent barrage of complaints has me worried; A Luna of their choosing or an Heir. Knowing my revulsion of both, they played on it, thinking I would crumble, but I have come here with news. Grinning, I walk into the so-called pack house that’s actually a mansion and make my way to their conference room. Se

I’ve been curled up in my bed since yesterday, still shocked at the ultimatum Beta Maxim has given me. He knows I’m running away from Mikhail, he knows what I meant to that bastard, and yet he hasn’t told Alpha Nikolaos a thing.Why is that, I wonder? Why is he keeping this a secret from a man who trusts him so much?Alpha Nikolaos offered me my freedom by giving birth to his heir, now Beta Maxim is giving me another out. The only difference is that the latter feels more like a threat than a way out. If I don’t go with his choice, he’s going to tell the Alpha, then I might get sent back to Mikhail.What am I going to do? I can’t raise a child on my own! Even if I did run away, I wouldn’t get far, anyway. This Alpha is one of the most influential in the country; there would be a bounty on my head for the rest of my life.I need to get out of this room before I drive myself crazy.Jumping from the bed, I grab my coat and run out of the room, startling Josef so much that he falls out of

My heart is sitting in my throat as I watch Alpha Nikolaos walk out of my bathroom. The bedroom door closes, and it’s only then that I lean against the large bathtub and breathe out a sigh.I really thought I was about to be punished when the Alpha walked in here, but instead, I nearly slipped out of the darn bath and landed on my butt. And he caught me - he caught me in those strong arms of his and I nearly swooned. He wasn’t dressed in a suit today, he wore a black t-shirt and jeans. But he still looked as handsome as ever - I swear, there’s just something about him, about his eyes.When he caught me, his slicked-back hair slipped out of place and fell into his eyes - it felt like a movie moment, especially with the way he looked at me. The second I touched his chest, though, he let go of me as if I was a live wire, then started with his berating again.This man is so mercurial; I could have sworn I saw lust in his eyes. But that would mean he finds me attractive, and I know that’s

There’s a hand around my neck and I can’t breathe. The more I try to fight them off, the tighter their grip gets - no amount of clawing at the hand stops them and their white Rogue eyes look down at me with glee. “Take your death quietly, Omega whore,” his voice echoes in my head over and over until I eventually hear a scream.I sit up in bed and pull my covers closer to my chest. My eyes are still adjusting to the light in the bedroom when the scent of Autumn hits me….that’s when I realize that I am not in my own room at all. Looking around the room, I swallow deeply and try to remember how I got here. Last night someone attacked me and I was nearly killed, then the Alpha saved me, killed the man who tried to kill me, and then Dr. Lilah and Maxim - Oh, my Goddess! My hand goes to my mouth as I realize I’m in Alpha Nikolaos’ bedroom. He wanted me here, but for what? Did I do something weird that made him worry about me? No, that’s not right, he doesn’t worry about anyone or anyth

My heart is sitting in my throat.They put me back in the bedroom I have been sleeping in, but that was more than three days ago. I’ve not heard anything from the Alpha, Maxim and Josef haven’t come in here either. I’ve truly become a prisoner; with locked doors and barred silver windows.All alone in here with nothing but my thoughts and wondering if I’m getting out of this city alive. Will Alpha Nikolaos still honor our contract or does it become void since I lied to him? Gods, this would all be easier if he would actually speak with me!I thought I was doing the right thing by leaving. I thought by getting out of here, the danger would follow me and not remain here to torture people who actually cared about me. But how wrong was I?Everything was a trap from the get-go.There’s no point in hiding things anymore, I suppose. I can tell him what he wants to know and there would be no consequence. If I die in this pack house, then that would be the end of my misery; at least then I kno
