Nathan:
I watched as Katerina entered the house after her conversation with mom. Her eyes were fixed on the ground as she avoided looking at anyone. Her curly hair covering her face, not revealing her expression.
My beta and best friend, Carter, walked up to me with a glass of whiskey in his hand “loosen up, it’s your wedding ceremony”
“Shut up before I rip that tongue out of your throat” I said, taking the glass from him. I took a sip from the glass before placing it on the arm rest, running my finger over the top of it as I looked at the dancing crowd.
“Where’s your bride?” He asked, nodding at her empty chair. In tradition, my wife should have been by my side throughout the whole evening until the two of us went back to the room while everyone partied. Eventually, the house would be empty by morning, leaving the two of us alone, giving us our privacy.
“Probably locking herself up in the bedroom, crying for the ‘fate’ that has been forced on her” I said, rolling my eyes. Her poor, weak girl attitude was one that I despised. Carter laughed, shaking his head at my response. He ran his fingers through his curly hair, removing it from his face as he looked at me.
“Cut the girl some slack, she just arrived here and you’re already hating her” the man knew for fact why I disliked her. The idea of having another Alpha’s daughter was not something that I wanted, especially since he was my enemy and she used to be his beta.
“At least I’m being honest about it” I said, shrugging my shoulders. I gulped down the whole drink, watching as the girls started calling their mates in to dance. I nodded at Carter whose mate started shaking her hips, waiting for him to notice her “it seems like your woman wants to seduce you”
“At least her seduction has blood traveling where I want it to go” Carter smirked, looking at his mate who was calling him to join her. His eyes were fixed on her for a few seconds, admiring her, giving her the chance to seduce him like she wanted.
“Too much information, Carter” I shook my head at the man, laughing when he approached his woman, his bulge already obvious through his pants. I shook my head at my pack members, watching as they enjoyed MY mating ceremony while I sat on the chair, waiting for this night to end. If anyone had told me that this was going to be how my wedding ceremony was going to be years ago, I would have punched him in the face, but seeing what I was living, I wanted nothing more than to get out of here.
The house’s door opened again and I frowned in confusion when I saw Katerina walking out with two cups in her hand. She smiled at me, handing me one of them before taking a seat by my side on her chair. I stared at the cup for a second, waiting for her to explain what it was she was doing “in our ceremonies, a Luna makes her Alpha a cup of coffee or tea during the ceremony. You mother told me that you preferred your coffee brewed, and that is what took me a while, I apologize”
I looked at the cup in my hand before handing it to her, getting up from my chair. She tensed, holding both hers and mine in her hands, looking at me with wide eyes “keep your fucking traditions to yourself. You are part of THIS pack from now on, you best start getting used to it”
“I am trying to be nice” she said, standing up from her seat. She placed the cups on her chair behind her before standing in front of me, daring to face me “please, stop making this difficult”
Taking the situation, the pack members stopped playing their drums. Their eyes widening in fear for the woman who dared face their Alpha. A low growl escaped my chest, and grabbing her arm, I pulled her inside the house. The force of my grip made her wince as she tried preying her arm from my hand. I growled in anger, wanting her to stop as we entered the house.
I pushed her forward, watching as she almost tripped before catching her balance. She turned to face me, her canines exposed as she challenged me. I exposed my own, growling at her to submit, taking a step toward her, towering her body “you are to fucking submit to your Alpha, do you understand me?”
“I am not your slave” I growled, grabbing her by her neck. Her heart raced under my palm and I was sure not to press on her neck, not wanting to choke her. I knew that everyone outside was worried about the woman’s state, but if she was to cross her limits; I would know how to deal with her accordingly.
“I am your Alpha, and whether you like it or not, you WILL fucking submit” I said, leaning closer to her. Her eyes hardened as she returned my glare, our breaths mixing “your job is to submit and mine is to fuck you until you’ve given me a child. The two of us will NEVER be anything that you would…”
Her lips came in contact with my own before I could finish what I was about to say, stopping me from completing my sentence. I tightened my grip around her neck for a second, deepening the kiss before pulling away to look her in the eye.
“Go up to the bedroom and wait for me” I said, letting her go. Her eyes widened as she coughed to catch her breath. I walked out of the house, listening to her footsteps as she ran up the stairs, entering the bedroom.
“Complete your ceremony, we won’t be joining you for the rest of the evening”
Katerina:I paced around the bedroom, waiting for the Alpha to come up.My heart raced against my ribcage, threatening to leave my chest as I thought of what I just did, and the fact that I could hear his footsteps as he walked up the stairs didn’t make the situation any better.The fact that I stood up to him when I knew the consequences of doing so was something that I couldn’t let go of. If my parents found out about this, I would be dead, they wouldn’t even give me a chance to explain why I did it. The door to the bedroom opened, revealing the raging Alpha who walked toward me. He didn’t even give me time to open my mouth or to speak. His mind already fixed on what he wanted to do, his heart racing against his ribcage, his canines exposed for my eyes to see. “You played with the wrong Alpha, malyshka” he snarled, turning me around. My back against his chest as he pulled me to him, grinding his hips against me. His right hand slid down my body, exploring it while I froze, not kno
Nathan:I stared down at Katerina, stopping when my cock was buried deep inside her. Her eyes were closed as she pulled on the restraints that held her in place, and sighing, I untied her left hand, taking it in my right and squeezing it in assurance. I leaned down to her lips, connecting them with my own as I kissed her gently, distracting her from the pain.“I’m going to move now, Katerina”“Please don’t…” I didn’t give her time to complete her sentence as I pulled out half way before pushing inside, my thrusts slow as I considered the fact that she was a virgin. She squeezed my hand tightly, her tears forming in her eyes as she bit her bottom lip, drawing blood. I lowered my hand between us, gently rubbing circles of eight over her clit. Her eyes widened in surprise at the feeling, and despite them being filled with tears, she seemed to have gotten a bit distracted from my rolling hips. I pulled out completely before pushing back inside, the force taking the woman off guard as sh
Katerina:“I will be at work for the day, be sure to familiarize yourself with the house. If there is anything that you may need, the maids are here, just let them know and they would provide” he walked out of the kitchen, heading toward the bedroom, leaving me alone to process what just happened. I stood in my place for a few minutes, staring at the food that I have spent the past hour before turning to the stove. I placed the rest of the food on the dining table before leaving the kitchen. My heart raced against my ribcage as I heard the Alpha walk out of the bedroom, heading toward the door. He didn’t bother looking back at me as he slammed the house’s door shut, leaving me to stand in the middle of the hall like some lost kitten.I was not some whore that he brought from some hooker club to satisfy his sexual needs, why the bloody hell would he be considering that I was? Fucks sake, who the fucking hell did he think he was to think so? “The Alpha” my wolf, Vivian, responded sarc
Nathan:“Set these here please, Annalise” I heard Katerina say when I entered the house.I entered the dining room, following their voices to find her setting a table for two alongside the maids. She looked up at me and smiled, nodding at the maids, dismissing them as she stood in front of me.“What is the meaning of this?” I asked once they were all out of the dining room. Her eyes met mine and she sighed.“I made you dinner”“Are you stupid? Or do you intentionally want to get on my nerves?” I asked the woman who took a deep breath, biting her bottom lip as she stopped herself from saying whatever was on her mind. I glared at her, waiting for her response, but none came for a few seconds, the one thing that could be heard was her racing heartbeat as she stood in silence in front of me. “Call the maids to gather all this, I want nothing…”“I am your bloody damn wife…”“I told you in the morning and I will tell you again, your duty is to please me in bed…”“And I will tell you now, I
Katerina:I limped into the kitchen, my legs barely supporting me as I went to get myself something to drink. The idea of eating anything seemed to be impossible with each step I took, reminding myself of last night’s events. “Alpha Nathan has instructed that you have something to eat before the day” one of the maids said, approaching me to help. I smiled in thanks, taking a seat on the chair that she guided me to. Her brown eyes met my green ones as she looked at me, her expression as gentle as a mother’s looking at her daughter. “Thank you, love, but I would do with a cup of coffee please” I said politely. The maid looked at me, before she froze, taking a step back, worry and fear replacing her once calm expression.“You need to eat to regain your strength” Alpha Nathan said, walking into the kitchen. He stood by the door, his arms crossed over his chest as he waited for my response, but I wasn’t stupid enough to give it to him after what happened last night; I was barely walking
Nathan:“What you are doing is wrong, son” mom said, taking my hand in hers.She had called me to come and see her at her house, but I never expected her to call me to talk about Katerina “mom…”“I know that you don’t like how the marriage happened, and I know that you don’t like the girl’s family; but she did not choose her family” mom said, stopping me. She tightened her grip around my hand, gently running her finger over my hand, trying to calm me down.“Did she ask you for this?” “No, if anything, the girl does not leave the house until you are back inside the pack. But I am your mother, and I can see that you are breaking one another up” “We have been married a week, mom, there is nothing between us to be broken” I said, slowly removing my hands from hers. I got up from the couch before she could say another word, knowing that she might end up opening a past that I wanted nothing more than to get rid of. Gently leaning down, I kissed the crown of her head, letting my lips linge
Katerina:I looked down at my feet as I listened to the Alpha laughing with Gala, the maid who I learned raised him up as a kid.My heart ached as I walked away from his office’s door, heading back to the living room where I was preparing my schedule for next year’s first semester. Classes started in a month and I was still to discuss whether or not the Alpha would allow me to go back to my studies, but then again, the two of us haven’t had a proper conversation without arguing with one another since we got married.I watched as the Alpha and Gala walked out of the office. His eyes meeting mine for a second as he passed the living room “Gala, prepare the table and let us know when it is ready”Gala nodded, walking toward the kitchen as Alpha Nathan walked inside the living room, looking at the laptop in my hand “what are you doing?”“Fixing up my semester’s plan” I said hesitantly. I turned the laptop for him to look at the window only for him to frown.“You’re a student?”“Yes, I am
Nathan:I stood out on the veranda as I took a whiff of my cigarette.Katerina was inside the room, getting ready for today’s gathering while I watched the pack members from the veranda, trying to clear my mind before the evening began.Having gotten ready a while ago, I wore a normal pair of black jeans and a gray long sleeved shirt which I had raised until my elbow. Katerina was wearing a high waist black skirt and a white crop-top which she had tucked inside her skirt. Her heels clicked as she walked toward the veranda’s door, knocking it as she called for me “can you please with the bracelet?”I turned around to face her, and I couldn’t help but get mesmerized by how beautiful she looked. Her hair neatly curled and her casual makeup only added a glow to her features, her nude lipstick made me want to bite her lips as I kissed and claimed her out on the veranda. I nodded, squeezing the cigarette on the ashtray, turning it off, before approaching her. Katerina smiled and extended
