All Chapters of The Alpha's Princess Surrogate: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Astrid's POVThe pain of my mate rejecting me slammed into me making me gasp as I rocked back, my body shaking and vibrating.l had heard of people rejecting their true mate yet I had never thought that it would happen to me.Somehow I had thought surely the moon goddess wouldn't be so cruel as to give me a mate that wouldn't care for me in addition to all my troubles.I had been wrong. I didn't even know how it was possible for a wolfless omega like me to have a mate like Xavier. I wasn't as strong as Lyra so why me?What I knew was that I was in a world of pain. To think that if I had a wolf the pain would have been twofold of what I was feeling now. Guess there was a good side to being a wolfless omega after all.Xavier wrapped his arm around Lyra and the stab of pain in my chest made my knees weak beneath me.I wanted to crawl under my covers and hide.But I had been doing that my whole life.Hiding because I was a powerless omega, hiding to avoid the people who would hurt me.Hid

Astrid's POVI wish I could say that I left immediately, found my Dad and began to live the life that I was destined for.My life simply couldn't be that easy.Fighting the urge from the mate bond to return to Xavier, I made my way back to my room to pack my essentials.I didn't know where exactly my father the Alpha King was but I knew that my search would have to start at the capital city. The Werewolf Capital City was the pack managed by the Alpha King that lay at the heart of our continent.It was also where he resided. At least until he disappeared. My current pack was such a long distance away from the capital that I wondered what exactly my mother had been running from to run this far.I would find out when I reached my father. I would find him. I wasn't sure how but I worried that if I thought too long about this plan then I would back out completely.I needed to leave now. And I couldn't get caught.I finished tossing whatever little property I had left into the bag and proce

Alpha Jaxon's POVI looked back at the woman who would be my surrogate very soon.How dare she question me? She needed to know her place.Leaning in, I grabbed her chin roughly making her gasp out in surprise. So far I had been nice and considerate but I was an Alpha and I didn't accept challenges from anybody."No one questions me, pet." I whispered in her ear, feeling her stiffness against me.My hand shifted to her neck placing just enough pressure to not hurt her but enough to show her that if I wanted to I could."Most especially not you."Astrid's pale green eyes widened with fear and I was surprised that a part of me wanted to take that fear away but I ignored it.It was better for both of us if she was afraid of me. We didn't need this arrangement to be anything other than what it was. A much-needed arrangement.I pulled away from her feeling angry at her, myself and this whole blasted situation."Alpha, the car is ready." My Beta, Caleb said bowing as I exited the apartment b

Astrid's POVWhen I got to the Crimson Moon pack hospital with Beta Nathan, I was more than confused.What exactly had Alpha Jaxon meant by the list and why did he want a doctor to see me?The injury on my cheek was already healed. I might not have a wolf but I could heal even though it was way slower than a regular wolf's.The doctor seemed pleasant at least."I am Rachel and in your time here as your time here as a surrogate, I will be your guide and confidante."I looked at the smiling doctor with cropped blond hair and almost angelic blue eyes. My supposed confidante. She was from the Crimson Moon Pack and ultimately one of Alpha Jaxon's people. I couldn't trust anyone but myself here.She turned to face Beta Nathan who seemed to stand straighter under her gaze."Wait outside the clinic and give this to the Alpha."Rachel handed him an envelope. Beta Nathan accepted it and gave me what I assumed was a don't misbehave look before walking away.I turned back to you the doctor. Had s

Alpha Jaxon's POVI saw the shock spread across their faces as they processed my presence.The man who held Astrid in his arms let go of her slightly, probably from the shock but that was all she needed to pull away and race away from him to hide behind me.This close, I could perceive his scent on her and it enraged me. How dare this man touch what wasn't his?If not for my need to check up on Astrid after the librarian had informed me via the pack link of her leaving Astrid alone in the library, I would have never known.This rage I was feeling was unfamiliar.I didn't even know Astrid all that well but I was bothered. Bothered was an understatement. I felt undeniably possessive about her.She was mine. I had bought her straight and clear and she had also agreed to our bargain.The man in front of me looked and smelled strangely familiar and there was the look he had been giving Astrid.I was willing to bet that this was her former mate who had been stupid enough to let go of someon
