《Fated to the Black Sheep Alpha》全部章節：第 1 章 - 第 5 章

"Harder, Torin! God, yes! Right there!"The high, shrill scream of my best friend ripped through the heavy oak door. I stood in the hallway, my legs turning to water. In my pocket, the anniversary card I had spent an hour picking out felt like a jagged piece of scrap metal. I had been so excited. Five years. We were supposed to be celebrating five years of a love I thought was unbreakable."Fuck me harder! Wreck me!" Twyla yelled.I squeezed my eyes shut, wishing the floor would just open up and swallow me. This had to be a nightmare. Twyla had been my closest confidante for three years. She was the one who told me this morning to wear my best dress because today was my big day.Inside my mind, Tyra, my wolf, began to pace. She let out a low, vibrating growl that rattled my ribs. My skin felt tight, itchy with the need to shift and tear that door off its hinges. On my wrist, the silver bracelet hummed. The cool metal worked against me, dampening my power and keeping my true nature bur

"Leaving so soon?"The voice was a low, gravelly vibration that settled right at the base of my spine. I froze, my hand hovering inches from the edge of the silk sheets. Xavier Wright didn’t sound like a man who had just woken up. He sounded like a predator who had been watching me from the moment I opened my eyes.I didn't turn around immediately.

He was a devastating upgrade from the man I thought I loved. Looking at Xavier was like looking at the sun after yea

"I hope you aren't waiting for a thank you," I said, my voice cold.I stood by the marble sinks, scrubbing the back of my neck. The skin felt raw, but I couldn't stop. I needed to peel away the phantom sensation of Torin’s mouth near my skin. Every touch from that man felt like a stain I couldn't quite reach.Xavier Wright didn't move. He remained leaned against the counter, his long legs crossed at the ankles. He watched me with a look that sat somewhere between genuine interest and a predator eyeing a particularly sharp-toothed rabbit."You’re quite the fierce one, aren't you?" he asked. He sounded amused, like he was watching a play he’d already seen the ending to.I turned the tap off and faced him. "If someone does something wrong, they deserve the consequences. Isn't that how your world works?""By that logic," Xavier said, pushing off the counter and stepping into my space, "I just saved you from a very messy scene. How do you plan to settle the debt?"He was tall, broader than
