Cecilia POVI stared at Alessandro. “What Alpha’s daughter?” I asked.“The one from MoonStone pack,” Alessandro replied and released my wrists from the handcuffs. “I believe you.”I sat up and rubbed my wrists, feeling confused.I was the Alpha’s daughter.But I was very much alive.How could my body have turned up in the forest?“That’s terrible,” I said. “What happened?” “Her body was burned so no one really knows,” Alessandro said. “They only identified her on the hair and the wedding dress.”I frowned.Someone must have faked my death to get the warriors off my tail.I felt relieved that I didn’t have people after me anymore, but my heart still sank at the thought of someone losing their life because of me.“I suppose that you were telling me the truth.” Alessandro’s voice broke me out of my thoughts and I looked up at him. I shrugged. “I understand,” I replied. “We’ve just met. I don’t expect you to blindly trust me.”Alessandro sat down beside me and rubbed my wrists.“But

Cecilia POVThe door opened, startling me for the second time in one night. “Get up!” Someone shouted. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. After everything that happened during the night, I had trouble sleeping and it felt like someone had run me over with a truck. I stiffly climbed out of bed and walked over to the dresser. I figured that I needed to wear something else than a lace shirt and a leather skirt. Thankfully, I pulled out an old T-shirt and some jeans from the dresser. Both were too big for me, but I had to make due for now. I put some slippers on and followed the rest of the Omegas to get some breakfast. When I entered the dining hall, I looked around for Olivia, hoping that I would see her somewhere. But the sun was out, so I guessed that she didn’t want to leave her room. The Omegas were quickly given a slice of bread with some cheese. I wasn’t really hungry, but still managed to scarf it down before we were ushered out to attend to the chores. “You!” Judith shouted

Wanda POVThe Omegas in the kitchen glanced nervously at each other as lunchtime approached. The silent question hung in the air. Who would be serving the Alpha lunch this time?Everyone dreaded it. Especially the younger Omegas who were constantly groped and assaulted by him every time they served him. I sighed and rolled my eyes. “I’ll do it,” I said.The collective sigh of relief that was heard through the kitchen almost made me smile. “Thank you.” Alicia groaned. “He put his hand up under my skirt yesterday like that was the most normal thing.”I wasn’t exactly looking forward to having Alpha Jerkface’s hand up under my own skirt, but better for me than Alicia. She was 19 years old. She shouldn’t have to put up with pricks like him. After gathering the food and drinks for the Alpha and his bunch of stupid goons sitting around in the former Alpha’s office, I pushed the cart to the office and knocked on the door. “Enter.” A voice said curtly from the inside. I opened the door

The man grabbed my wrist and I tried to pull away from him. “I have to go.” I squeaked out.The man tightened his grip on my wrist and I whimpered. Once again, I cursed the damn collar around my neck. Without it, I could easily have overpowered him. But as long as I didn’t have my wolf, I was as strong as any other teenage girl. And the man was definitely stronger than me. “You’re hurting me.” I whispered. He leaned towards me and smiled in a way that I guessed was supposed to be seductive, but just turned out creepy. “But we’re just getting started, little girl.” He replied and pulled me with him. I knew that I should be screaming and trying to get someone’s attention, but at that moment I just froze. All I could feel was his tight grip on me and his nails digging into my arm.He led me to a lounge and pulled me inside. As he closed the door, the spell broke and I managed to yank my hand out of his grip and back away. I let out a yelp when I reached the back wall and my hea

Alessandro POVI tossed and turned, unable to sleep. I was about to turn eighteen and I couldn’t be more excited. My wolf would awake, I would be able to recognize my mate and the Alpha title would be passed down to me from my father. As the Alpha of the biggest werewolf pack in Livorno, we had a certain reputation to uphold. Some would say, we were the leading werewolf Mafia family in the Tuscany region. I had been training for hours and hours under my father to become the most cold and ruthless Alpha the region had ever seen. I sat up quickly and reached for my gun when someone opened my bedroom door and snuck in. Realizing it was Harley, my Beta, I relaxed and put it away. “What are you doing here in the middle of the night?” I asked. Harley came closer, and I frowned when I saw his horrified expression in the dim light. “We need to go.” He whispered. “We don’t have much time.”“What are you…” I started, but he took my hand and pulled me out of bed. “Just trust me and let’s
