All Chapters of The Alpha’s substitute mate: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Isabella I walked back to my chamber in a daze, walking past pack members but not paying attention to them or answering their greetings. I got to my room, entered and shut the door then leaned back against it before the muscles in my legs gave out and I sank to the floor. I couldn't help it. I was being forced to marry a total stranger, someone that I don't love. Not just that I will be forever tied to a man I didn't love and I would never be able to experience the pleasure and fulfillment of finding a mate. That's what every wolf craves for, as soon as they get of age. To find your Moon-goddess-given soulmate, that magical person who would sweep you off your feet and make you whole. All bliss and satisfaction would be tied to that person, that fated one. And I won't get to feel the bond pull of a mate, I would be denied all that. Forever is a long time and I wondered if I would be able to pull through. “ Why me!” I couldn't help it and I allowed the tears to spill uncontrollably

Isabella I didn’t realize how hungry I was till a huge platter of food was set before us. Selena started eating immediately and I totally forgot about the new pack anxiety and ate to my heart's content. After we finished eating, she led me upstairs, through a broad passage that opened up to several more rooms. If I should say that the pack house was huge it would be a gross understatement. I marveled at the elegantly curved staircase that was coated in gold and black color. The pack house was filled with rare antiques, luxury furniture, and magnificent decor. It was also splashed with flashy colors and paintings and some pillars were studded with beads. It was a beautiful sight to behold. I would have easily fallen in love with the beauty of Blood Moon Pack if I had not heard of the coldness in the hearts of people who reside here. Selena’s angelic voice brought me out of my reverie and I noticed we were standing in front of a huge open room filled with large mirrors and the walls w

Isabella“ Violet was right!”He was incredibly handsome and extremely breathtaking. He looked like a demigod, with his shoulders squared, and a well-defined jawline, his hair was dark like the night and was perfectly coiffed. His body proportions were perfect like he was sculpted by God. His eyes were sharp and piercing even across the room. I could see the perfect emerald-green color of his orbs and they were cold. Cruel and furious and I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me that his anger was directed at me. I felt this urge to slide down in my chair and hide under the table or maybe run away from the hall. But I tried my best to be strong even though my heart was pounding excessively. The entire room was filled with the most exquisite and intoxicating scent. Could it be his cologne or his aftershave balm? He smelled really really good. Like the sweet-scented smell of summer rain and lavender. Somehow I was tempted between running away from those cold and angry eyes or the desire

Isabella I woke up to a knock on my door, I got up and unlocked the door expecting to see Violet’s sunny and smiling face but instead, it was Lance. I was confused but I tried my best to conceal it, so he wouldn't notice.“ Beautiful morning Bella,” he smiled cheerfully “ Sorry to disturb your sleep but Mum wants me to call you down for breakfast.” “ Okay,” I said sleepily, stretching my body and yawning. “ I guess I overslept, please give me a few minutes to get ready.” “ Okay, will wait for you in the foyer, please don't take too long.” with that he left the room I walked into the washroom and turned on the water to brush my teeth and wash my face. I push the damp strands of hair from my forehead, exhaling a warm breath as I try to keep up with the thoughts racing through my head. I was not eager about going down for breakfast, what if Arden is there already? I sighed knowing that I can't be running away from him after all he's my mate and husband-to-be. I came out of the bathr

IsabellaI sucked in some air and left my room with the Queen and some maids for the garden in the castle. Everyone’s eyes were on me as I kept moving. The place was packed with a lot of people, many of whom I was certain were the Pack members and while others were probably Alphas from the different packs who came to grace the occasion with their presence and most importantly to be in the good books of Blood Moon Pack. As we got to the garden, Queen Selena and the maids went to have their seats and I was left with Violet standing beside me. I scanned around looking for my Dad or sisters but there was no sign of them. Somehow I had expected him to make an appearance on my wedding day. Maybe it would make up for the way he had signed away my life and then sent me off without even saying goodbye. “He didn't even bother to care if I was alright or I was accepted by the Blood Moon Pack knowing he didn't stick fully to his own side of the bargain.” His lack of care shouldn't surprise me, b
