“How could you…” ah! My words dissolved into sobs, cruelly racking out of my throat. I was crumbling like a sandhill right before both of them. “HOW COULD YOU SAY THAT!? YOU LOVE ME, LOGAN! YOU LOVE ME!” “Where's it, Mother?” His voice was ice cold, sharp at the edges as he darted his gaze towards her. Where's what? “Right here!” She chimed. “I remembered to pick it up.” After which she immediately handed him a file in an envelope. “Here!” Logan slapped the document on the table before me with a loud bang that caused me to jump. “Sign it. And leave!” *** From the ashes of heartbreak, a new queen rises. Alaina Bloodrose, a victim of a brutal divorce by the only man she's wholeheartedly loved, kickstarts her streaming career.

His flirty expression was immediately washed away by a stoic one.And he just looked away, turning on his heels. Just like that. There goes my dream! “A-Alpha….”My brain screeched to a halt and he walked past me like I was no different from a piece of furniture. My heart sank. What did I expect from him, especially after everything I'd said to his face?I was stupid to have come here, but it wasn't an opportunity I wanted to miss. I watched him strut into the lobby like the whole world was his runway. His aura was nothing short of majestic and the brown, tailored suit he had on amplified his charisma.Alpha Alexander didn't spare me one last glance and I just stood there like a fool, watching everything slip from my grip and cursing him internally. That asshole. I heard footsteps behind me and looked back to see who it was. It ended up being a familiar face— Alexander's chauffeur who I'd
ALEXANDERThe rattling sound of a knock hit my door and my head shot in the direction as I adjusted my tie and grabbed my jacket from the hanger next to me. A groan threatened to rip out of me. “Breakfast is served, Dear Alpha.”Dear Alpha? I grimaced, almost tasting the disgust on my tongue. I recognized that voice immediately. It was that of the puppet from LunaHive that our families had brainwashed to come here and seduce me. How woefully she was failing at it. I wondered what she was hoping to achieve on this ‘tour’ of hers, as I planned not to change my mind.“I'll pass.”I heard a soft giggle. “The Luna had said that'll be your response. I'm not permitted to leave until you say yes,” She said boisterously again. Well, LunaHive was known for being bossy, especially her father. There was no doubt that a tinge of control would drop into her DNA too.“Then I hope you like the view, Anya” I responded tersely, moving swiftly across the room to grab my suitcase, then I opened the d
ALAINA“Fifty thousand viewers!” I chimed, unable to keep it to myself any longer! “That's just mind-blowing! Thank you for fifty thousand! Thank you so much!”I furiously tapped my feet as I glanced at the heart section and it continued to flood in without bounds. That was thousands of dollars right there! Who would be grinning in this situation?It was all happening so fast that I felt like I could tear up. All these comments! All these people, they were here to listen to me. Here, I wasn't just an invisible Omega with a tragic fate that destroyed ‘everything she touched' like they always said. I didn't know how it was my fault I was born on a moonless night or that my mother had died immediately after I was birthed, but right now, nome of that mattered! I wasn't cleaning the Alpha's shoes or kissing anyone's ass!I wasn't walking on eggshells around a maddening mother in law or spending late night in bikinis waiting for a drunk husband to lie with me! All those eras have passed.T
ALAINA I absolutely hate him and I didn't want anything to do with him, ever! What? Money? Did I look like some starved wench who could just do his bidding all because they were in some kind of financial pit? It stung that he would even think that way of me. I worked in the packhouse, so what? That was in the past! I wasn't the same person as those times but he just wouldn't see it that way. I had a thousand emotions running up my head as I glanced out through the window of the vehicle and the landscape blurred by. I might not be able to get a job, and I didn't care at all. If it meant I could stay away from Alpha Alexander, then the pack and their gossip might as well go to hell. It was barely ten minutes with him and my heart was still pounding like I'd just run a marathon and collapsed in the middle of another. And that particular scene haunted me. Why did he have to hold my hand that way? Why did he have to touch me and make me feel all those sensations that I'd been trying
ALEXANDER“What did you just say to me?” The next question that slipped right out of her mouth and made me realize that I'd indeed slipped up. Alaina jerked away from me, her thick brows furrowing in disgust. I could tell that she was mad at me, but I couldn't help it. I couldn't help how I felt around her, the kind of feelings that built up inside of me when she was near.I said nothing, still leaning against the table as she spoke. I could smell her. Her sweet scent had filled the room and I had several thoughts running around in my head. Now that Logan was out of the picture, they were not bound by fate in the first place.Her wolf had no ties to him, which might give me a chance but first, I needed to straighten my reputation. This gorgeous woman didn't like me very much. “Are you…hitting on me?” She asked though her eyes were locked on mine and she blinked repeatedly as though that was the most preposterous thing her eyes have ever spoken. Alaina laughed. “You're not only a bul
ALAINA“Do you…want to find out?”First I thought I was hearing things, but it dawned on me that it wasn't a figment of my imagination when I spun around only to find the bane of my existence leaning against the door frame with a sardonic smirk blessing his amused expression. My mouth fell open and gradually his scent filled the entire room. “A-Alph..”I hadn't heard the door make any sound and one question, what was he doing here? I staggered back as the shock shot through me and somehow landed back on the chair, slamming my ass against it and boy did it hurt?Alpha Alexander seemed to be enjoying every single second of watching me turn into water. Jeez! What had I done? He trudged in, tucking his arms in his pockets. There was no form of lividness in his demeanor and I didn't know what scared me more. The fact that he might have heard every derogatory remark directed at him, or that he'd managed to infiltrate the only company that I thought I'd never see him in. I braced the sides
ALAINA*TWELVE HOURS EARLIER*I looked like a completely homeless bum sitting before my computer with my feet endlessly tapping the edge of the table as I scanned through the website.My thumb was in my mouth and I'd nearly chewed off the entirety of my fingernail. The frustration was enough to turn my hair into spikes and I might just disappear into thin air at any moment.The realization glared at me in the eyes. I NEEDED TO FIND A JOB! “Why did you have to say that!?” I groaned, grabbing my face and patting little slaps to my lips since no one would do it for me.I ran my fingers through my hair as I remembered my conversation with the Pack's radio. It was nearly time for the Pack's monthly moonlight meeting, a feast for the elderlies, and undoubtedly, I'd be a trending topic!Ugh! That vain old woman. I was quite sure the moon goddess didn't want her quite yet, that was why she still roamed the corners of…. like a vengeful ghost!But that wasn't the point, was it?! I was the one
The chill air surrounded me as I stepped into the lobby, my eyes scanned the area for Logan or Esmeralda. I'd left this division in his care a while ago, and because he'd already rejected Esmeralda, I didn't see a reason why their working together could be a problem.Until yesterday when I was informed that she was carrying his child! What madness was that? The receptionist leapt to her feet at the sight of me and her smile started to falter at the edges.“G-Good day, Alpha Alex-xander,” She stuttered, staring like she'd seen a ghost. Usually, the entirety of the staff was informed whenever I planned to visit.I'd never once made an impromptu appearance like this one, and if a secretary could react this way, I wonder what expressions I'd be reading off Logan. With a curt nod, I stepped into the elevator and found my way up to Logan's office.The hallway was quiet, unusually quiet for a manufacturing branch and one could almost hear a pin drop. I flicked my eyes to either side of the
ALAINA What the hell? Gulping hard, I pulled closer to the laptop to see the digit and it stared right back at me. One zero. Then two zeros. Then three. Then- My eyes were heavy from being widened for too long and I tried to yell Lorraine's name, but the term, ‘cat got your tongue?’ had never been truer for me. Everything I wanted to say, or could say turned into dust in my headspace, and dollar notes might as well be ingrained in my pupils. “Pig…sty?” I called out absentmindedly though I was already off my channel. Was this…some kind of scheme? Was I going to get kidnapped soon? Trafficked!? I propped to my feet and yanked off the apron, spinning out of the room and in the direction of Lorraine's. She might have answers! That was a lot of money. TOO MUCH MONEY. Mr Anonymous had done it again and what the hell had I done to deserve eight fucking thousand bucks from someone who knew nothing about me? As much as I wanted to enjoy the moment, the terror had started to
