NovelEnglishChapter One Chapter One Kaida's POV With each passing day, I couldn't help but wonder if I'd made a mistake, if I'd doomed myself with my own words -but it was too late to turn back now. I had never met Alpha Ethan before. Though we were neighboring packs, my father and the beta had always been the one going for the meetings, I didn't do well with meetings and parties and maybe my father was right. Being an Alpha was about more than just being a warrior.
I got dressed in my usual clothing, leather pants matched with a black leather jacket and a glove to cover my missing pinkie finger. Had I forgotten to mention that slittle ‘accident' had costa finger? As if that flaw wasn't enough, my body was also marked with a number of scars, so while I had always despised wearing fancy gowns and pretty little dresses, it did make sense why I had to cover up.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe men carried their scars with pride, like it was skind of proof of how fierce they were; scars on a woman had a completely different representation; it was an imperfection, a flaw, and so I always kept mine hidden.
Aric joinedin my room. He was the pack's Beta, and also ten years older than I was; he had watchedgrow into the woman I was today, and the age difference never did hinder us from being very close and loyal friends. He would die forif it cto that, and I would not hesitate to do the same.
"You awoke early today; I planned to sneak up on you." "I couldn't sleep." A frown arched his brow, but he said nothing. I knew he was worried, but he knew more than any other person that I hated being babied, and so he kept silent, and I did appreciate that. Aric was the only person who really understood me, who sawfor more than just the Alpha's Daughter.
"How about a run in the woods to clear your mind?" he suggested.
"Well, I wish I could, but unfortunately, today might not be the best day." "Okay, something is indeed very wrong, the Kaida I know never says 'no' to a race." "Well I have somewhere else to be." "You know what I think? I think you are afraid I will outrun you this time." "In your dreams, the last tyou outran me, I was still a lad." "Kaida. What is going on?" he asked, finally giving in.
"I'm getting married." For a moment there was complete silence. "Or 'Mated', if you don't understand the human' term.” I added, imitating my father.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Everyone understands the human term." "That's what I said." "Kaida, is this skind of a joke?" "If I am joking you will know, but how I wish it was that just a joke.” "But how... why?" "My father had arranged my marriage to Alpha Ethan" "Wait, Alpha King Ethan Alexander Blackwood." 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter One "He goes by many names." I responded.
"And you are okay with it? you will just go ahead and marry him?" "I am not. I am not okay with it, but this is what my father wants." "But this is not you; this is not what 'you' want." "No, it's not. But he is dying, and it only makes sense that honor his last wish.”
"No, it doesn't make sense. I hope he lives, but even if he doesn't, you will be under the Alpha King's control. The man is ruthless, and your father knows that."
"I considered all there is to the Alpha King, Aric, and despite everything it does make sense; my father is worried about my safety and that of the pack." "I'll understand if he is worried about the pack, but being worried for you? You are one of the best warriors in this pack." "My father would always seeas his daughter, nothing can and would ever change that." "You know what, I will go talk to your father." "Don't waste your time, nothing is going to change his mind."
Aric walked out of the door, furious, he wasn't only furious at my father for marryingout like I was insignificant, but also atfor m yielding to his will so easily. This wasn't what I wanted, it was quite the opposite, but maybe it's tI stepped out of the clouds and face reality, and the reality was that I am the daughter of an Alpha and also unmated, being given out to marriage to gain alliances and favors for the pack was indeed my destiny.
