All Chapters of Awakening Of The Hidden Alpha Heiress: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Chapter 3 Freya Her eyes were as cold as they’d always been and for a brief moment I let myself hope that seeing me like this, my back covered in bruises, bloodied, and completely broken might finally crack through that ice and bring a bit of warmth in her eyes that I hadn’t seen in years. But it didn’t. If anything, the disdain in her gaze doubled like the exact moment I told her I was staying at Rowan’s pack.She stood there, watching as the healers worked their magic like the professionals they were and soon the pain started to fade. “Please take some time to rest up.” The eldest one said, bow slightly at me and then at my mother before they all left the room. “So you finally came back after getting hurt.” She asked, as soon as the door closed behind us. The words landed coldly. No embrace, no concern, no warmth. Just that flat acknowledgment of my failure.My chest tightened. Even here, in my home, there was nothing for me.She shook her head, her disappointment evident. “

CHAPTER 5Freya’s povCaelan's eyes had gone from warm to arctic in the span of a heartbeat. He stood there dripping water onto the hardwood floor, his expression carved from ice, and I felt the temperature in the room drop."Just an accident," he repeated slowly, like he was testing the words. "I see."He moved to the dresser and pulled out clothes with sharp, controlled movements. I watched him, my throat tight, wanting to take the words back but not knowing how."Did you treat Rowan the same way?" The question came out casual, almost conversational, but there was something dangerous underneath it.My stomach dropped. "How do you know about Rowan?"His jaw tightened. "Answer the question, Freya."Panic fluttered in my chest. The coldness radiating from him was worse than any anger. I just wanted to smooth this over, to make that awful look disappear from his face."No," I said quickly, the words tumbling out. "It wasn't the same. It was different with him. Completely different."I ke

CHAPTER 6Freya's POVSelene took a step back, her eyes wide with terror as she looked at me. One second she was standing her ground and the next her body had moved without her permission, and I watched her wolf press flat inside her while mine kept pushing upward, hot and angry and bigger than anything I'd ever felt before.I didn't understand what was happening to me. All I knew was that the air felt different and every wolf standing within ten feet of me had gone completely still and Selene, for the first time since I'd known her, looked genuinely afraid.Then I felt the sharp pain hit and I forgot everything else. My head rang with a loud deafening ringing. My vision went white. I clamped my hand hard down on my ears, my eyes rolling to the back of my head as I felt the terrible terrible pain hit my body and my knees buckled. Whatever had been building inside me collapsed all at once and I pitched forward with nothing left holding me up. “No. No. No.” I cried, as I felt my knee

CHAPTER 8Freya's POVHad I really just proposed to a stranger in front of the whole pack? Fuck fuck fuck!The entire ballroom was staring at me, and I almost retracted my statement.But I didn't. Instead I stood there and let the full weight of what I had just said crash down on me all at once. Three hundred wolves, every single one of them watching, including my ex-fiancé and the woman he had left me for, and I had just proposed marriage to a man I had known for less than a week.My heart was slamming so hard against my ribs I was surprised nobody could hear it.Caelan looked at me, though his expression gave nothing away, not surprise, not amusement, nothing, and for one terrible stretched-out moment I thought he was going to say no. I thought he was going to look at me in front of everyone and say no and I was going to have to find a way to survive that on top of everything else that had happened tonight.Then something shifted in his eyes. Something warm and certain, and he sa
