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 moment, I felt my heart thudding in my chest, and I couldn’t speak.


“What?” I asked, sure that I misheard her. “But we were just attacked here last night. Why is Varon sending all of these away?”


But Lily had no answer for me, she just shrugged. And I set forth with a new determination to the Alpha Hall. Once I reached there, I found the place mostly empty, but Varon was at the table at the back.


“Can I speak with you?” I asked firmly as I walked past him through the back door.


All Alpha Halls were built the same, and they each had a back room where the Alpha conducted his business privately.


“I’m in a meeting,” Varon said, a little irritated, but he followed me to the back all the same.


“What is all that stuff in the courtyard?” I asked him. “Why are you sending food and medicine to the Silver Stone?” I continued on before I even gave him a chance to speak. 


Varon looked at me like I had lost my mind.


“Because that is our arrangement,” he said simply.
