"You'll give me a son, once you do that for me, he will get the title as he demanded, and you'll be set free from my cage." ************* After I lost my father, Derrick took over my mother with threat. Not only that, he dealt with me so much until the day I was abducted while hunting. I found myself in Denver Pack which was far away from my pack, greycrest pack. Standing before the devil in a wolf form, the cruelest, ruthless and cold hearted Alpha king of Denver Pack, he announced what would have been a nightmare to my hearing.

While I'm sorting out all these, I'll still have to revenge for my father. I'll surely murder the unidentified man who strangled my father to death in my presence. But how will I do this when I'm caged to breed for the devilish Alpha?

Mariée depuis sept ans, j’attendais enfin mon premier enfant. Mais mon mari doutait de ma fidélité et refusait de croire que le bébé était de lui. Furieuse, j’ai demandé un test de paternité. Avant même que les résultats ne tombent, il s’est présenté chez mes parents, brandissant une photo compromettante. Ma lingerie avait été retrouvée chez son ami. « Sale traînée ! Non seulement tu m’as trompé, mais tu voulais me faire élever l’enfant d’un autre ? Meurs ! » Fou de rage, il a frappé ma mère avec un fouet jusqu’à l’évanouissement, puis m’a rouée de coups jusqu’à me faire perdre mon bébé. Quand les résultats sont arrivés, il a découvert la vérité. À genoux, en larmes, il a supplié pour le retour de l’enfant qu’il venait de tuer.

Ma famille a été attaquée par des loups sauvages lorsque nous avons pénétré sur leur territoire. Ma louve a été gravement blessée, et finalement, c'était moi qui ai sauvé tout le monde. Alors que je m'effondrais, épuisée, personne n'est venu vers moi, ils ont tous couru vers ma sœur adoptive, Félicie, en se souciant de quelques égratignures superficielles. Lorsque les membres de la meute m'ont transportée à l'infirmerie, le guérisseur m'a annoncé la terrible nouvelle : ma louve avait été frappée par un poignard d'argent et que le petit d'un mois que je portais dans mon ventre ne survivrait pas. Pourtant, mon compagnon, Luc, a donné à Félicie le seul traitement qui pouvait sauver la vie. N'ayant pas d'autre choix, j'ai refusé les remèdes du guérisseur et j'ai soulagé la douleur de ma louve avec des herbes rudimentaires, sachant que cela ne nous donnerait que trois jours avant la mort. Au cours de ces derniers jours, j'ai tout laissé aller. J'ai donné à Félicie toutes mes possessions et l'argent de l'assurance, tandis que mes parents souriaient en signe d'approbation. J'ai signé sans hésiter l'accord de rupture de lien que Luc m'a glissé sur la table. Luc était satisfait, convaincu que j'étais attentionnée. Kévin, mon frère, a hoché la tête lorsque je lui ai dit de donner ma chambre à Félicie. Même mon fils Jérémie, quand je lui ai demandé d'appeler Félicie « maman », s'est écrié joyeusement. Personne ne m'a demandé pourquoi j'avais donné toutes mes affaires à Félicie, et leurs regards approbateurs en disaient long : « Bien. L'ancienne Emmanuelle est de retour. » Mais à mesure que le temps passait, une pensée me hantait : « Quand ils trouveront nos corps, celui de ma louve et celui de mon petit à naître, cette satisfaction se transformera-t-elle en regret ? »

He smirked, knowing he was on the winning side. "So it's a done deal for three months?" He raised his eyebrows, putting his hand forth for a handshake. I looked at the long fingers and perfectly aligned nails and then at his patient face. Sighing to myself I my own hand into his and ignored the tingles that flowed through every nerve as his fingers curled around my hand and shook it lightly. "Yeah three months." "Goodnight then." He winked, removing his hand from mine and turned to walk away. "Hey wait!" I called out, suddenly remembering something. "You don't have my number." "What makes you think that? I have my ways Smith." And with one last wink I saw him take a turn and disappear from my sight. I let out a long breath, leaning on the nearby wall. Looks like I just made a deal with the Devil. * A sarcastic girl, a cocky guy.
