The Rising Moon Pack's Alpha doesn't forgive a debt and my father had no more money, nothing to trade away to save his own life.
Except me.
The Alpha looked at me, and I could see that he thought I wasn't worth what he lost.
"She can give me an heir," Varon decided. "And maybe that will repay the debt. Otherwise, the deal is off."
And just like that, I belonged to him.
But he had no taste for a mate. And I had no taste for him. So, the mate bond was dangerously incomplete. I was sure that neither of us cared.
I hated him. Almost more than my father that had sold me.
Then the Crimson Mist Pack came to me with an offer. They would free me from my prison if I helped them destroy the Rising Moon and Varon. It was an easy choice to make and I accepted without question. After all, if I failed to birth a son, then I was dead. 
But what if my feelings for Varon suddenly started to change?

Traded to the Alpha

For a wild moment, I was sure that he knew the truth. He knew that I was the spy. I had done nothing but bring my own death closer to me, when that had been the one thing that I was trying to save myself from.


Varon rushed toward me, and I closed my eyes, bracing myself for the impact. I was sure that he was going to tear me apart with his claws. That the first time I would see him in wolf form would be like this, as he attacked me and ripped me apart for treason.


But the attack never came. His arms came around my middle as he scooped me up over his shoulder. I opened an eye to see that I was being taken out of the house.


“What?” I huffed, even as he hauled me up further, hurrying along the path. “I can run! What’s going on?”


I didn’t expect him to stop. I didn’t even expect him to listen to what I was saying. But he did.


“All right,” Varon said simply, putting me down gently. “Come with me, we’re going to the Alpha Hall.”
