Broken.

Claire's POV The city roared below.But it was nothing compared to the turmoil reckoning within me.I sighed and dabbed another layer of concealer on the fresh bruises over my face, covering away the shame and guilt that came along like baggage. My eyes fell on another bruise on my wrist. I quickly jabbed the puff over it, covering the bruise there too."What are you still doing?!" My husband's voice rang from below the stairs. My heart pounded against the stiff collar of my tailored suit. I dropped the puff in my hand and gave myself one last glance in the mirror. I plastered a smile on my lips, finishing the charade of a perfectly happy wife.I grabbed my purse and flew down the stairs, ignoring the pang of pain in my ankles, protesting against the silhouette I saddled them with even with the injuries they sustained just the night before."I'm ready," I announced to Mark, my husband of five years. It was our anniversary dinner. The shock I felt after being announced to that we wou

Claire's POV."No!" I screamed, shielding my eyes as another lash of the belt was about to descend on me. My eyes flung open, staring uncomprehendingly at the formless white world around me. My heart thudded in my chest and I realized I must have been asleep. Cold seeped through, winding on me.My eyes darted across the room, sweeping in the single chair and the table, the curtain still in place, trying to identify where I was, though my mind was still fuzzy, clouded with fear and confusion.Where was I?I shivered, the cold, aching pain in my chest intensifying. All I remembered was getting lectures from Mark on having an open relationship, and running out of the house in the dead of the night for some sanity. Then the club...My head banged in protest, but I paid no heed."I got tipsy," I said out, trying to juggle my brain. "And those men trying to harass me."Just like that, everything came crashing down on me.Hazel eyes. Jet black hair. Alex."Alex... Warren," I choked out.

In trouble.

ALEXIS'S POV.My heart skipped a beat, then thudded with a thick, dreadful thrill. I sniffed the air, my wolf catching the faint scent of my target. I snorted and quickened my pace, ready to beat the badtard to a pulp before throwing him into the dungeon. He was going to be the bait to draw out—"Alpha King Alex, sorry to bother you, but there are three Alphas here requesting your presence." My Beta, Dane, mind-linked me."This is the third time you are needing my presence in the space of three hours, Dane. You are not my Beta for fancy. Handle it," I responded to him through the mindlink. "But—" he began."—I'm out here handling the most crucial case that could change everything," I reminded him. "Whatever it may be, from now till I return, handle it," I ordered. I could feel the start of his protest brewing, so I simply cut off the link, knowing he would get the message.I sighed, remembering how I became the Alpha King at 25 years - a feat never achieved before in the history of

I do not wish to be your queen.

Claire's POVThe sun set directly to my face, burning me badly. I grumbled my disagreement before turning around, shielding my face from the fury of the burning sunlight.My right hand shot forward, carressing the soft bed i loaid on. A small frown crested my face at that. I examined the bed again, my frown deepening further as only softness met me again. Heck, that wasn't right.After Mark kicked me out of 'our' room and I moved to the vacant room, my only bed was the hard, worn-out one I managed with.How was it so soft now?"Are you awake?" A deep voice bloomed at me.I shot up instantly. My body protested the sudden assault as pain shook me to my very core. I winced slightly, memory crashing down on me instantly.I shivered slightly and jumped to the edge of the bed, scared Mark would sprint out to attack me again."Are you okay?" The voice asked again.My panic rose instantly. My hands shot up in defense despite knowing the action was useless against Mark's daily dose of assault
