Annabelle pov . After an hour of taking a shower and trying out my sister's clothes. I settle for a black and baggy overall with a cute white tank top that fit my sister's 'aesthetics "Well I'm not used to this style ," I mumble once we get out of the car and arrive at the small flower shop. "It fits the day and tone ,"she answers with a huge smile on her face while slamming the car door. "I don't think so ,"I mutter in response as I look at my outfit. I suck in my breathe as I look at he flower shop outside. It's small and cozy but it has the most beautiful flowers I have seen . It makes me feel like plucking one of them out . Even the old lady tending to them outside has an inviting and warm presence . "Wow this is -" "Amazing right ?"my sister finishes my sentence with a huge smile. "Yeah it is. I think this is a place I would be in forever ," "Oh please ,"she giggles and pats my shoulder and winks,"don't say that when you have one heck of a mate ," "Not now Olive ,"I gr
Annabelle pov When I was five years old . My mother would always tell me that when I find my mate at the age of 16 . I will be complete and happy. She would later describe the details of a happy wedding day while getting married to your fated mate ! your one true love... She was wrong! She was definitely wrong . Today I'm getting married to a stranger to some one who might get me out of the problems my father created . My husband to be is not really a stranger but considering the circumstances surrounding the situation I would call him a stranger . I'm the new alpha of our pack . The Red Zodiac pack . The smallest pack in the state right now . My selfish father had looted all the funds and resources from the pack . Not only that but he did a lot of shady things that ruined the packs reputation to the extent of all the packs refusing to form a treaty with us .I'm not supposed to be the alpha of the pack because I'm wolfless but I'm the only heir left to the p
Annabelle pov The temples of my head throb as the pain in my body gravitates to my head . The strong hospital scent assaulted me as I sniff in the 'fresh air 'surrounding me .Wait a hospital? What am I doing in a hospital? I would normally open my eyes in a rush if I was filled with anxiety but I had to use all the energy I have to just open my eyes . I slowly peel them open one by one. In front of me is a dark figure that I don't recognize . I adjust my vision for some time to get a clear picture of who I am with in this hospital. Surely it can't be Ben because he does not have such a dominating figure even though he is an alpha. He also doesn't care about me . I would be dammed if he really showed up here just to make sure that I'm okay. "Finally you are awake ! "the deep voice reverbrates and jolts me from my hazy thoughts . The sweet sound makes my whole body shiver and my heart starts pounding. Why is my heart pounding so loud ? Why d
Annabelle "Marry me , "his rich deep voice startles me from my hospital bed. I look at him in shock. I was not expecting this to happen . He folds his tattooed arms across his chest and looks at me with his dark green eyes in expectancy. This is not something that I wanted right now considering the fact that I'm in a hospital bed.Any other deal would be better but I'm not going to marry a beast in disguise. "Excuse me , "I answer back in shock as I look at him with widened eyes. I finger the cold engagement ring on my other hand . Alot of thought went into this. Why would he want to marry me now ? I look at the man in front of me and he stares back at me with a patient face.He seriously thinks that we should marry . Hell no! He was there when my brother . He killed my brother and my father had a stroke through stroke . Everything is just so messed up and he wants to marry me . "I can't marry
Annabelle My sister enters the room and looks at me with a worried look . I'm still in a lot of pain . The doctor couldn't allow me to leave but Jason still thought it was a good idea to have get married immediately. I argued with him and he agreed to wait for a few weeks. I look at the time on my wrists and it's only 8:30 am. What is going on? I think Jason is trying to test my nerves right now . Of course I may not be love with Jason but I need to get married to him. It's a life and death situation right now and to think that I'm in a full puffy wedding gown that my mum had forced me to wear i. I have sucked my stomach in for hours and to think I was just discharged from the hospital yesterday is what's killing me. Where the hell is he? "You need to calm down , "my sister speaks as she eyes me up and down like a lunatic. "Telling someone to calm down when they are completely through the roof has never worked ! " I answer back with a frown. "I can't believe you are getting
Annabelle pov Flash back "What is happening ? "I cough loudly as the smoke chokes me to death. The miracle fire that started at mid morning has sweeped through the entire pack house and now its approaching the forest. We call it the miracle fire because it basically has no source . It's like a wild fire! "Kane ! "I shout as I look around the foggy smoke that has risen up to the ceiling. The heat sweeps through the entire place and I feel like I'm dying . I can't leave without my twin brother. "Kane ! "I scream again as I hold my breath looking for him. I kick open the door and I almost die out of shock to see my brother lying unconscious on the floor with blood dripping from his chest . I almost lose my control when I see Jason standing just behind the body. My mouth quivers as no words can describe the feeling that I have . I drop my eyes on Jason and he looks at me with horror . I can't believe my best friend would lay a hand on my brother like that . I always thought th
Annabelle pov "So let me get this straight ,"my sister mumbles over the phone ,"He refuses to listen to you because he believes that he is the overall decision maker and being alpha gives him the right ? " "I believe so , "I answer slowly as I think of the best way to tell my sister that we are truly screwed. Honestly I never thought this through. I thought getting married to Jason would at least solve half of my problems but no it did not. Everybody hates him and now he wants my whole pack to move just after we got married! If someone was to tell me that I would be married to Jason the person that actually killed my twin brother . I would laugh in their face and call them an asshole because why I would get married to the person that is my total enemy. He might have straight sexy black hair and mesmerizing eyes that could make any woman drop to the ground but I can't forget the hurt that he left behind when he killed my twin brother . Not only that I just survived a car acciden
Annabelle pov The brunette woman holds her cheek soothingly like hot coal had just landed on her . I'm not one for violence but this woman had it coming for her . No matter what the gods whisper to me at this point I'm far from calm and collected. Her face contorts and twists to anger as she continues to touch her cheek. She looks at me with fire and rage in her eyes. "Did you just slap me ?! "she screams as her voice trembles. " I'm not -" I don't get to finish my last sentence when she also lands a hot slap on my cheek .My cheek tingles as the pain stings on my cheek . She grabs my hair and the excruciating pain travels down my whole body as I struggle to hold my head from being ripped off instantly. She pulls me like a ball stuck in a door and swings me like a base ball across the kitchen . She lets me go and my whole body propells and hits the corner of the wall. I scream loudly as my back hits the wall. My hair falls on my face as my whole body just slops down the flo
