Chapter 1
Lilly
“Wake up!” a voice said in the distance. “We have important people coming over for dinner at 6pm, you need to get up clean and prepare dinner.” a voice said.
I jumped up real fast realizing it was Cody Banks the alpha calling for me. “Coming!” I proclaimed. I hurried out of bed, got dressed and brushed my hair. Hurriedly I ran downstairs to the kitchen to start cleaning and prep for dinner.
I’m Lilly McKenna by the way. I'm 24 and actually an alpha but no one knows that. My Parents died when I was 6 years old. Cody’s parents found me in the woods. They took me in to use as their sons slave so I’ve been stuck here for years to please Cody however he wanted.
5:45pm rolls around and it's almost time for the guest to arrive. A roar screams through the kitchen to me. “Set the table then return to your room until you are called for!” yelled Cody’s whore Stella Brown. Stella is a jealous two faced Beta who thinks Cody belongs to her. What she doesn’t know is that I don’t care for Cody so she can have him for all I care.
I stay locked in my room until I’m demanded otherwise because Cody believes I’m his property. He lies to get what he wants and uses force and manipulation to achieve it. I think he’s just one of those spoiled rich boys that throws a fit when he doesn’t get his way but that's just me everyone else thinks he’s an angel that does no wrong.
Few minutes later…
6pm hits and a strong scent hits my nose. It smells of lavender and citrus. I look through the window to see a faint figure glance at me then walk through the front door. “Damn it!” I said. “I wanted to see what they looked like!” my wolf starts to go crazy like I've never seen before. “What's your deal? Why are you all over the place?” I asked my wolf. “Mate!” she whispered barely audibly, ignoring me.
My wolf becomes so uncontrollable she makes me go down stairs without permission. I nervously look around scared of getting in trouble and suddenly become weak to an unknown voice of an unknown face. I stop and stare. He is the most beautiful man I've ever seen. He’s about 6’2” with beautiful sky blue eyes and dark brown short curly hair that I could get lost in. His skin is a fair light tan almost like honey.
Collecting myself I hear him say something. “Mate!” he whispered. Confused, I looked up scared he might hurt me. His aura was so strong and scary yet very confident. I turn to go back to my room before getting caught by Cody or one of his henchmen. As I’m turning to walk away the mysterious man grabs me and pulls me to the dinning area where Cody and everyone else were waiting. Cody turns and looks at us confused at first then furious.
“I'm taking her with me.” the unknown man said. “But Mr. Pierce, what would you want with a whore in the first place?” Stella said, trying to please Cody. “That's nothing for you to be concerned about.” Mr. Pierce said. Cody angrily stood up and slammed his hands on the table and yelled. “She is my property and no one else's!” Cody Proclaimed.
Sharply Mr. Pierce looks at him with enough aura to drop a pack of wolves. “She is my mate and therefore belongs to me and definitely does not belong to you so if you expect to make an alliance then you will not dare to test me!” No one can fight for or take someone else’s mate away as they don’t belong to them.
I start to cower, scared I might lose my head when Mr. Pierce tightly holds my waist to make me feel safe. Quickly I look at him with shock. “Sir?” I said quietly scared he might snap at me. “You're safe my dear so don't worry. You'll be coming home with me.” he said. “If you do not have anything else to discuss about the alliance then I shall leave.” “No!” Cody said angrily. “You shall not leave with my slave!” “Let her leave. She's of no good use to us and the pack besides you have me!” Stella tried pleading flirting with cody.
Mr. Peirce’s Beta steps in between us and Cody protectively. “Fine!” Cody said, leaving for his office in a bad mood. As we leave Stella looks at me with a smirk as if she's happy to be rid of me. Well you know what Stella I’m glad to be leaving this place away from you, you snobby, two faced, jealous whore. I obviously didn’t say it out loud but she was a bitch to be around. So good riddance!
On the way to my new home it was very silent. No one spoke a word and I didn't dare say anything because Mr. Pierce scares me. I started admiring him looking at his beautiful face. Those eyes of his are like blue crystals in the moonlight. His jaw clenched as he thought of something. Why do I always have to attract the scary guys? Not gonna lie though he looks like a work of art made from god. I hope he didn’t notice me staring at him? I look quickly out the window not wanting to attract his attention.
