The negotiating rule in the packs was simple. You give what you took.

 The war and animosity between the Nightshade and Moonstone pack have been ongoing for centuries. But this time something drastic happened. The Nightshade pack lost their Luna. To maintain peace in the werewolf world, the council arrived at only one solution, a Luna in exchange for a Luna. And that’s where I got into the picture. 

 Astrid Brooks, 26 years old. A born princess. The only daughter of the 4 children of Moonstone’s Alpha. Married off as a peace offering to none other than Kael Knight, Alpha of Nightshade pack. A replacement to his late wife, his very mate, whose blood has still not dried from the hands of my father. 

From the life of a princess to a mere maid, from light to darkness and from being the most loved person to one detested with crazy passion. I became a mere replacement. And this was just the beginning of my story or should I say suffering.

A Deal with the Alpha Who Hates Me

Biting my lip, I knock on his door. Looking here and there in the hallway, I make sure no one sees me. The door pulls open, and my anxious eyes connect with Dom's. He steps aside, and I rush in, my pillow pressed tightly to my chest.

Dom locks the door behind me, and I finally let out a breath I didn't realize I was holding. He looks at me from top to bottom and shakes his head in disapproval. His eyes take in my attire, and I feel my cheeks flush.

"Are you going to sleep in that?" he asks.

My palms clench the pillow tightly. To be honest, I had nothing to wear as a night suit. This maid outfit with its flimsy skirt was my only option. The clothes Dom gave me for training were drenched in sweat, hanging on a wire outside to dry for tomorrow.

He walks toward his wardrobe, and the next thing I know, he's offering me a loose T-shirt and a pair of joggers. My eyes widen as I look up at him.

"I can't. It's alright," I protest.
