Arranged For The Cruel Alpha

ANNABELLA’S POV

I woke up as early as possible and headed to the bathroom. Last night after he left, I only slept for a few minutes and that was early this morning.

I knew I should be happy about him setting me free but the feeling I was getting wasn’t close to that. I was more disappointed and scared than I should have been. I didn’t know if I preferred being his property or living as a free woman.

I sighed as I stared at my face in the mirror plus the white bandage that was around my head. I touched my forehead but I didn’t feel any pain like I was supposed to.

Roman might have been right because the more I pulled the bandage away, the less pain I felt. By the time the whole bandage was off my head, I realized I was completely healed which wasn’t possible.

I was a wolf less and healing should be slower. I was supposed to heal like a human but in this case I healed in a few hours. I touched my forehead and couldn’t explain it.

Only my mate could have healed me this fast and that was if he was an alpha. ” Bella dear” I turned my head to the door hearing Madeline’s voice. ” Alpha Roman is requesting your present” she said and my stomach chunked. I could feel my eyes widening. Why was he requesting my present? He was here last night, he could have said whatever he wanted.

I swallowed before telling Madeline I would be out in a few minutes.

I hurried out of the bath after a quick shower and surfed through my stuff to get something to wear. If there was one thing I wouldn’t do to an alpha, that would be to keep him waiting. I didn’t know much about alpha Roman but I knew how alphas were.

” You look great” Madeline said from the kitchen when I was thinking of escaping her eyes and flatter comments forgotten she was a damn werewolf. Great haring with a sharp sens of smell.

I stared down at myself. The white dress knee level dress I was wearing wasn’t that great, it was one of the dresses I had in my wardrobe for ages. I didn’t know it was a big deal until I met Madeline’s mysterious eyes. ” You should dress like this more often, I’m sure alpha Roman won’t mind, ” she said and my face turned bright red. Why was I sounding as if he was the reason I was dressed?

” Don’t look surprised, I was just given you an advice” she shrugged with a smile turning to pull pies out of the oven. I didn’t know she was making pies, I would have come down to help her. I was a bit familiar with the ingredients and the process.

I used to read a lot of books from different chefs since I wasn’t allowed in the kitchen. ” I will make sure to keep the last pair for you” she said without turning to look and I nodded before walking to the door and pulling it open.

I felt my stomach heavy and my throat dry as I found myself standing in front of the door to his office.

I ran my palm down on each side of my hip before raising my hand to knock but before I could touch the wooden door his deep voice found me.

Great, what was I thinking?

I pushed the door and slipped through. He was alone, my eyes ran quickly around the room before it settled back on him. ” Have a seat” his heavy intimidating gaze pointed to the chair oppsite him and I found myself walking to it. His gaze followed till I was in the chair.

It was awkward with him staring at me with a word. It has been about five minutes since he asked me to take a seat. I could feel my palm sweating as I raised my gaze to meet him, his blue intimidating gaze. His fine hard face and those lips, my heart flattered at my own stupid thoughts.

” What are you thinking?” His deep voice pulled me from my thoughts and my eyes widened when I realized what he was asking. I couldn’t possibly tell him what I was thinking but I couldn’t ignore his question. ” Nothing” suddenly the room became hot and small.

I didn’t know why he wanted me in his office and I didn’t want to guess anything. ” Last night….” He started and my eyes dropped on my lap. How did I forget last night?

He was really serious about it. I was indeed free, I was no more under the obligation to carry his heir.

Why did that bring disappointment to my chest?

Did I really want to carry his heir?

I didn’t know the answer to that nor did I know what was happening with me. I hated him at first but I didn’t know anymore.

” Can I go to the washroom?” I left my seat and almost ran as I shut the door behind me. Why was I sad and disappointed?

Wasn’t it unfair when he went into that agreement with my father behind my back? Wasn’t I angry when I learned about his agreement with my father? So what was happening to me now that justice has been restored?

Why want I happy?

I was free to leave his pack. I wasn’t obligated to carry his heir anymore so why was I feeling sad and scared?

I wiped my tears as I stared at myself in the mirror. I should be happy that I was free again. Maybe I would find my second chance mate if I was lucky enough and live happily with him. I understand second chance wasn’t for everyone but I hope I became the goddess’ choice.

I wiped my face dry, I shouldn’t be carrying over something that was never mine. intention from the beginning.

I seriously didn’t know what changed but I tried to convince myself to be happy. I could do a lot out there, probably go back to school after eating enough.

Going rogue was my best card at the moment. Turners pack couldn’t be home even though deep down I was feeling at home.

I pulled the door open and there he was, standing behind the door with his hands caged in the pocket of his black pants.” Are you okay?” He asked and I nodded. ” Have you found your mate?” The words slipped out, I didn’t know why I wanted to know nor why I got the idea from but it was the only reason I could think of.

His sudden change of mind could be related to his mate.

My eyes didn’t pull away like they usually did when he stared back at me like he was looking through my soul.

His eyes narrowed as he hemmed in reply. I couldn’t tell how I felt at that moment. I felt my heart drowning and my eyes clouding with tears but I didn’t let them fall.

I stared down in regret as I wished I hadn’t asked. I wished I had minded my own business instead, maybe I would still have the strength to stand.

” I understand, don’t worry I will leave tomorrow before daybreak” I said and he frowned.

Did he want me to leave today, like right now?

Well, I didn’t have anywhere to go at first but now I guess I would have to find somewhere to go. It would have been easier if I had a wolf, it would have been safer if my wolf was with me but I guess I had to face my fate.Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

I didn’t know my life would turn out like this one day but I hope I survive it.
