Novel & Cerita Marked By The Alpha Who Ruined Me

Zara "Rude" I mummured. Judging from the kind of person Alpha Ryan was, it wasn't hard to see that he was a man of pride who didn't beg. He saw begging as a way of being weak and left for me, I was ready to break him until the only thing left for him to do was to beg. I closed my eyes for a bit, thinking back to everything that led to this very moment. A few days ago, I was working my ass off in order to pay up the student loan I was immersed in, just to be sold off by my adoptive parents to one of the most ruthless men there was.

He glanced in the mirror, and the drunken haze vanished from his eyes in an instant. But he recovered quickly, strolling toward me with an easy smile. "Oh, that? I was out drinking with the business partners last night. Must've bumped into something." "I put in a lot of effort to close this deal. I'm the Alpha, after all — it's my responsibility." He sounded so self-righteous. But I knew it was nothing but an excuse for his betrayal. Since he wanted to lie to my face, I saw no point in pressing the matter. There was another meeting that day, but my allergic reaction hadn't eased at all. My face was covered in blisters, and I had no choice but to wear a mask.

My cheeks flushed hot with a mixture of rage and shame. ‘What the hell is this?! ’ I growled, scrubbing at it with my palm, desperately trying to wipe it away. But no matter how hard I rubbed, the mark wouldn’t budge. It was burned into my skin, and the more I scrubbed, the redder I got—and the brighter that damn rose glowed. Around us, I could hear gasps, like everyone suddenly knew something I didn’t. “That,” Aiden said, stepping forward, eyes narrowing like a predator closing in, “is called Alpha’s Hunter’s Mark.”

And somehow that hurt more than any wound I had taken in battle. “I don’t know how to fix this,” she whispered brokenly. Those words shattered me completely. Because neither did I. For an Alpha, there was nothing more terrifying than realizing power could not save the people you loved. "There is a way.."

Then she faced the crowd and addressed them. "I know I failed Kendrick, and you all by getting marked by another creature", she said softly. "But I assure you, I would never do anything to hurt him. This happened by mistake, a very big mistake". She raised her hand again and showed them the mark of the mer king. "But I'm still Kendrick's mate. And I love him much more than I did. I won't let anything happen to him". "But there's nothing that can be done anymore",Leo said. "The Alpha's human side grows weaker everyday and soon, his soul would be gone. He would remain a wild beast forever".

"They demanded that I reveal your exact location so they could hand you over to the Hunters. They said it was my duty as Alpha to protect the pack and the supernatural world from the threat you represented." My stomach dropped. "And you refused." "Of course I refused," Gabriel said, his voice gaining strength. "I told them the Hunters had been lying for centuries, that you weren't a threat, that turning you over would be murdering an innocent person. I begged them to trust my judgment, to give me time to prove the truth." He laughed bitterly. "They didn't care. They voted unanimously to strip me of my Alpha position for 'failure to uphold pack security and willful insubordination to Council

I should have answered: Your death. Instead, the words tangled in my throat. I stepped closer, slowly. “Caelum,” I said at last, my voice low and slightly shaky. “Alpha of Bloodthorn.” Her breath hitched. She knew the name. I crouched, inches from her, close enough to see the blood on her lips, close enough to hear her heart struggling in her chest. My hand lifted, almost on its own, to brush the ash from her cheek. And then I stopped, trembling.

I care about,” I said, my voice shaking with conviction. “But you—you only care about yourself. About your precious reputation. You banished her because you were too proud to admit you were wrong.”“Enough!” he bellowed, his voice echoing through the room. The guards flinched, but I held my ground.“No, it’s not enough!” I shouted back. “You’ve ruled this pack with nothing but arrogance and selfishness. You think being Alpha means you get to control everything, but all you’ve done is destroy the people around you.”Mark’s eyes blazed with fury, his hands curling into fists. “Watch your mouth, boy. I’m still the Alpha here. My word is law, and you will obey it.”“Not when your word is bullshit,”

“I heard about how he hurt you and I knew that I needed to keep you safe. I failed you. I did everything I could to get you out. I can’t even talk about some of them, but I did it for you. I am Alpha now too, he can’t hurt you.” “How did you become Alpha? Did you kill my father?” “No,” he shook his head and as much as I hated myself for it, I felt relief. My father was a terrible person but he still had a lot of answers to give me, especially about my mother. “He wishes he was dead though. He is no one, he is nothing and I make sure to remind him of that every day.” “You’ve changed.” “So have you, you’re marked,” he spat out the last word and my hands flew to my neck. I had momentarily forgo

She looks at the girl with so much compassion and sadness, before handing her over to the doctor with orders on how to take care of her. My eyes never leave her as she gets to her feet. I scan her chest looking for… fuck, there it is. The Mark of the Alpha. I didn’t notice it before because the sequins on her dress hid it, but now that I’m looking for it, it’s easy to find. I’m waging a war with myself, and I don’t know what to do. I’ve been fated to an Alpha. A female fucking Alpha. How did I not notice?
