Cassandra's pov

I stared at the domineering sky scraper in front of me. Who the hell had a skyscraper as a pack house? Everything about the Lycans screamed money and they never wasted an opportunity to flaunt it.

"Welcome to your new home." The Lycan announced as he stood beside me. When it was glaringly obvious I had no where to run to, I had conceded but I knew it wasn't over and I would find my way out of the pack house no matter what.

I quietly followed behind the Lycan, ignoring the stares I was receiving as we walked. They stared at me as though I was an anomaly and in their world I guess I was. They were bo doubt wondering what a filthy little human was doing with one of their own.

"Alpha." A man whose face was pinched into a frown bowed as he addressed the Lycan.

Alpha?

My heart dropped as I recognized the title. It explained why this man's aura was so commanding and oozed of power. Was this a sick Joke? How would the alpha of the Lycans think I was his mate? Me, a human!

"Kael." The Lycan retorted.

"Is this her?" The man asked as he stared at me with an observant gaze. They had spoken about me?

"I'll show her to her room, you can wait for me in my office." The Lycan announced, ignoring the other man's question.

"Is this who?" A soft feminine voice asked and I turned to a beautiful sophisticated woman who had a small smile plastered on her face.

"Who is this Seb?" The woman asked as she assessed me with cold eyes. She had a softness to her but also a cold, calculating aura.

"No one you need to worry about Claire." The Lycan, Seb, retorted and the woman's eyes turned to slits.

"Why would you bring a human to the pack house? What would everyone think?" Her eyes darted back to me before she returned to the man who growled beside me.

"What I do is not to be questioned Claire, I'm the alpha and you had better remember your place," his voice held venom as he spoke.

"But I'm to be your Luna and that means I have a right to know things Seb," the woman announced defiantly and I stilled. If she was to be his Luna that meant they would most likely mate...where would that leave me? What would happen to me?

"I don't have time for this." Seb gritted out as he harshly gripped my arm and steered me away from the woman.

"Your hurting me." I called out to him as his hand squeezed my arm tightly. At my announcement he immediately let go of me and I gently massaged my sore arm with my fingers.

We stepped into the elevator and I pressed myself against the back of the metal as I tried to get as far away from this Lycan as I possibly could.

He stared at me for a second just before the elevator pinged and the doors slid open.

As I followed behind him I heard him nutter something about humans and how weak they were but I ignored it.

"Your room is directly next to mine." He announced as he held open a door to me. I slowly walked into the room and gasped at it's sheer magnificence. Everything about it was perfect and I couldn't help but wonder if I was in a dream.

"That is a conjoining door which will take you straight into my room-" he pointed to a door at the corner of the room.

"For now you are not to leave this room without me, you aren't allowed to wander aimlessly in the pack house unless I am at your side. If you need anything inform me and I'll have it delivered to you." The man announced and anger surged through me.

"Do you understand?" He quirked a brow at me when I remained silent.

"Just because I didn't put up a fight and I came here with you doesn't mean I'm your little prisoner who you can keep locked away forever." I gritted out but the man's countenance remained the same as he regarded me, save for a twitch of his lips.

"You look smart and I know you have already figured out I'm the Alpha king of the Lycans. You should also know that I am bound to have enemies, enemies who are waiting for the slightest hint of a weakness to use against me." The man stalked towards me as I backed away till I hit a wall. A low flame lit within me as I comprehended his words...he saw me as a liability, a weakness. What I couldn't understand though was why he hasn't just let me be, why did he have to drag me into his world?

"Finding my mate, a human at that, places you in great danger. No one needs to know right now that you are my mate, I'm already having a hard time figuring out what excuse I'll give for bringing a human to the pack house. I don't know what I'll do with you yet but for now, you stay in this room and talk to no one," he announced as he trapped me between himself and the wall.

My heart beat rapidly in my chest as I noticed his eyes flashing.

"Then why did you bring me here?" I croaked, ignoring the tears prickling the back of my eyes.

"My wolf needs you." He announced as he strolled away from me and towards the door.

"So what am I meant to do in here?" I called out to him as I hugged myself but h ignored me and gripped the door handle.

"I don't even know your name." I called out desperately.

The man paused for a second before he turned to me.

"Sebastian." He informed me with a nod before he left the room. A sob racked through me as I heard the soft nick indicating he had locked me in the room and my heart dropped.

Was this what my life would be like for the rest of my days?

The perfume made my skin crawl. I stood outside the Alpha's bedroom door, my fingers trembling as they hovered over the polished wood. Inside, I could hear him—low growls that vibrated through the walls, the crash of something heavy hitting the floor. My wolf should have stirred at the sound of an Alpha in distress. Should have whimpered or pressed against my consciousness, urging me to help. But I had no wolf. Just silence where there should have been another voice. "Miss Bishop." The pack healer, Dr. Ramos, appeared beside me with a crystal bottle. The liquid inside gleamed amber in the hallway's dim light.

"I need to check the northern border. Rogue scents were reported earlier." I nodded, brushing a lock of dark hair from my face. "Be careful. The ceremony won't start without you." His smile was dazzling as he pressed a kiss to my forehead. "Always am, Luna." Those would be his last words to me. The celebration continued, music filling the night air.

The crisp autumn air bit at my cheeks as I stepped out of the sleek black sedan, my fingers instinctively reaching for the International Healer's Excellence Award pendant hanging around my neck. The golden disc felt heavier than usual against my chest, its weight a reminder of everything I'd worked for—and everything I was about to risk. Silvermoon Pack's territory stretched before me like something out of a postcard, all towering pines and granite cliffs that caught the late afternoon sun. But it was the crowd gathered in the main courtyard that made my stomach clench. Dozens of pack members stood in neat rows, their faces a mixture of curiosity and barely concealed judgment. At the front, Beta Roman Martinez waited with a smile that didn't quite reach his dark eyes. "Welcome home, Freya Herrera," Roman's voice boomed across the courtyard, his tone pitched perfectly for the audience. "The Silvermoon Pack is honored to receive not only our future Luna, but the youngest recipient of the International Healer's Excellence Award." Applause rippled through the crowd, but I caught the whispers underneath—speculation about my bloodline, my qualifications, whether I deserved the position being handed to me. My jaw tightened. If only they knew the truth about my father's influence in arranging all of this.

The day of the rejection, I left with nothing but my medals. Alpha Caden was as indifferent as ever. He barely glanced up at me, his broad shoulders framed by the dim light of the pack hall, and asked, "What about our son? No more dreams of him becoming a champion warrior?" I managed a wry smile and shook my head. "No, he doesn’t want that life, and there’s no point in pushing him." I couldn’t erase the memory of our son, Wilson, angrily shoving me away, yelling, "All you ever do is make me train! I don’t want you as my mom anymore; I want Aunt Arya!" Since neither of them wanted my love or my skills, I decided to take them away. ============================== "Are you serious?" Alpha Caden tapped the black-and-white rejection papers, looking up at me with the calm demeanor that first attracted me to him. Back then, his composure was captivating. In my line of work as a Gamma warrior, I was always too competitive, so meeting someone unflappable drew me in. But now, after seven years of being mates and a six-year-old son, Alpha Caden was still the epitome of calmness and detachment.
