When the abuse and lies weigh too heavy she realizes that she has to leave but will he let her go? Or will he tighten his grip and lock the doors?
"I'm guessing the meeting wasn't to talk about the food arrangements for when you take over the pack?"
"They've arranged for me to marry Gabriella Santos from the Trimoon pack,"
"So what, when have you ever backed down from a challenge?"
"How is tying my life to another in marriage, a challenge?"
"The challenge is to make her submit to you."
"We'll make it more interesting-"
"- I bet you won't be able to get it done before the end of the year,"
"I'll have her submitting to me by the end of the month,"
"Not just submit. You have to have her wrapped around your finger, hopelessly in love with you by the end of the year,"
"Ten grand to whoever wins,"

Explicit sexual abuse, violence, and otherwise TW scenes later in the book. Will warn in Author Notes***

Alpha's Betted Bride

"Oh, Uhm, yeah i'm here. Listen, thank you for everything you've done to prepare for this but, uh…" I was stuck for the right words. Everything felt so right, right now, and the idea of leaving just made me feel sick to my stomach.


What if this was where I was supposed to be? Maybe this was my faith, to be with Aiden, everything had been going so well that I believed I was developing actual feelings for him.


Were we mates? Probably not, I didn't have my wolf yet so I had no idea who my mate was and I might never find out but if what I had with Aiden was real, emotionally, then maybe it didn't matter whether or not I had a mate. As long as I stayed with him, I could still live in a happy relationship.


"I'm gonna pass on the move," I said and it was met with silence but the smile returned to Casandra's lips and her eyes started glimmering.
