All Chapters of Claimed by the Outcast Alpha: Chapter 1 - Chapter 6

“Gwen?” Rumi’s voice snapped me out of my daze after I froze at what I had just witnessed. For a second, I tried to convince myself it was nothing, desperately gaslighting my own thoughts. But my heart had already dropped the moment Soren and the woman kissed. She has blonde hair, effortlessly beautiful and polished, dressed in a stylish designer outfit, her bag resting neatly on her arm. Rumi looked at me. The pity on her face said everything. I couldn’t hold it in anymore. Tears slipped down my cheeks before I turned and walked away. “Gwen, wait!” she called after me. “Did you know about this?” I demanded, my voice rising as I kept walking. She hesitated, clearly struggling to find the right words. When we reached the corner, I stopped and turned to face her. “I need to talk to him,” I said. “Maybe it’s nothing… We have an agreement, Rumi!” Even as I said it, I could hear how desperate it sounded. But in that moment, I was willing to accept any explanation Soren could gi

“I accept the marriage alliance with the Blackwood Pack…” The words felt heavy the moment they left my lips. I didn’t even need the time my father had given me to prove my mate bond with Soren. That alone was embarrassing enough, but what made it worse was how he didn’t question me at all, as if he had already expected this outcome.

The marriage will take place in three months.” I swallowed, gripping my phone a little tighter. “Can I ask what you’re getting in return for this alliance with the Blackwood?” Before he could shut me down, I added, “I have a right to know, given that I’m the one being offered.” He let out a quiet breath. “We needed their security. In exchange, the Blackwood Pack will be permitted to use our land in the southern part of Hollow.” I fell silent at that. The Hollow Pack had always been rich in land, a vast territory that many envied and sought

When I pushed open the dormitory door, two unfamiliar faces greeted me, along with two others from the Hollow Pack I hadn’t expected to see, and one of them was Luna Rosalia. They were all seated on the couch, but the second I stepped in, their heads turned toward me in unison. “Where have you been?” Vada asked immediately. She was a vow-maid in my pack. My pulse quickened. What were they doing here? “I assume she’s the daughter you were looking for?” one of the unfamiliar girls asked, clearly cautious around Luna Rosalia. “She’s not my daughter!” Luna Rosalia’s tone was sharp. She rose from the couch and fixed her eyes on me. “Let’s talk in the bedroom.” Without waiting for a response, she walked into one of the rooms. I had no choice but to follow. “What are you doing here?” I asked, keeping my voice cold. “It’s a six-hour journey to this place. I never imagined I was important enough to warrant a personal visit from the Luna.” The corner of her mouth curved slightly. “I’m h
