Lahat ng Kabanata ng MARRIAGE OF CONVENIENCE: Married To The Mated Alpha : Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

NICOLETTE'S POV As an Omega, being married to the alpha of a well revered pack would be considered a privilege to anyone else but to me, it would be termed more like a consolation prize. No one actually was willing to acknowledge me as Luna save my husband's best friend and Beta, Allen. This marriage of convenience had erupted moons ago after I had been ultimately embarrassed by my supposed mate, an alpha who had been embarrassed by the fact that an Omega was his destined mate. I could remember that day as the back of my paws when I had felt the pull and traveled all the way to that ceremony where I had been rejected. The shame was still all over me when he said clearly that he could not claim an Omega. That was the stepping stone to my marriage of convenience to the heart shattered Alexander Auger of the Red moon pack. His mate too had abandoned him and he had promised me a place by his side in a marriage with no strings attached. Perhaps he wanted to send a message across b

XANDER'S POVI had to wait for her and I knew it but there was something more pressing than waiting on a woman that God only knows how long she would be taking. I decided to do something to keep her at ease. Girls love shopping they say and so I transferred her a handsome sum and tagged it shopping. After making the transfer, I found my hand willing to know on her door when I realized she was still crying but then I heard footsteps. I swallowed hard and I walked away. I should have checked in with her but I opted for the easy way out.Part of the reason I reacted that way was because I did not want to start crossing lines with her knowing we both had our free will. Also I had this feeling that she would not be reasonable with me and my explanation when I could not tell her the previous day. I still had meetings and I as well would have to get ready to receive my estranged mate.My day was not as glamorous or alpha going like it used to be as the thoughts of both the women in my life k

NICOLETTE'S POVI knew I should have waited but the pain I was feeling within me was excessive already. I hurriedly tried to walk down the corridor when someone caught me by the arm. I turned to find Xander looking straight at me and he showed every sign of worry and sometime else which I could not tell. I had been stopped abruptly so the least I could do was turn around and look at him. He seemed to be fighting within himself for the right words to say to me and I myself could not help but feel intense. I could count the number of times when Xander and I shared physical contact but as I looked down at my hand, I could see his own covering my wrist. I looked up at him and he quickly let go."I'm really sorry, Nicolette." he said to me.I felt disappointed that he could not understand what I desired. He had suddenly let go of my arm like it was hot coal or perhaps even like there was some sort of contract between us that would weigh on us if he kept holding me. His touch had sent a lot

I could not get a wink of sleep that night as thoughts of that kiss I had shared with her stormed my mind. I just hoped she would understand the message I had been trying to pass on to her and not misunderstand. But right now, I needed to find a way to get a grip as it would seem that something had yet awakened in me the moment I had done that. So I thought it just might be time I had a run in the woods. It's been quite a long while since I last had any such activities and perhaps it was high time I fixed that. Quickly I took off my shirt and replaced it with a sleeveless over a pair of jeans. My running shoes and I were ready for it. I walked out of the house instructing the maids to keep a close eye on Nicolette and should anything strange start happening, they were to call me immediately. Seeing they concurred with my instructions, I took off from around the back of the house. It was going to be a long night but it should do me good as I felt less hot out here. The raci

I had woken up that morning and was about to make my way to the kitchen so I would fix us some breakfast when I heard the whispers. I found myself listening as somehow it seemed like I had woken up with little extra heightened senses. I could hear the maids inside whispering. "Great, now Laurel is coming back then we could have ourselves a true Luna." the first maid was saying. "True but what do you think would become of her?" whoever her companion was asked. "Clearly she'll return to her sickening Omega life. She runt after all," she said and they all laughed. I felt so much pain weighing down on my heart as I never actually expected I would be going through such pain in my entire life. Now the maids had confirmed that Laurel was coming back, I was as good as a vanished soul. I stood up straight as I tried calming myself down to ease the pressure to let tears out. I did not want to cry for fear of confirming their words. To them, I would always be an Omega runt wh
