All Chapters of Unexpected Mate: The Cruel Alpha’s Little Wolf: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"It's time" my newly found friend Mira informed me. I've waited for this night for so long, I've been on a strict diet, having to eat those very tasteless meals. I carefully stood up, so as not to ruin my pretty white dress, specially selected for this night, everything I was putting on was carefully and specially selected. Vera my stepmom even lended me her blue necklace, something I'm still so shocked about, she said it's for good luck, that I'll be needing all the luck I can get today. I had no idea she cared about me, she had never for once shown it. Well I won't blame her, even if she's only pretending, because after tonight my fate will change, she'll definitely try to be on my good side. Mira helped me hold my dress, as we started walking towards the ceremony hall. I was feeling so nervous, I had only met Lucas once, and we hadn't really had any proper interaction, but I had a crush on him for the longest time before our meeting. As the future Alpha, Lucas was well known,

"Aurelia, we're leaving" Kael said to his daughter. "Already, but I don't want to leave Aria" Aurelia said looking at me. "Let's take her along, can't she come with us? our house is big enough for all of us". she added. I expected Kael to refuse, he didn't know me, a common stranger rejected by her own people. To my suprise he said, "Okay, she's coming with us" he said, and turned to look at me. "No… I can’t,” I said quickly. “It’s not proper. I don’t want to impose myself on you.” He stepped closer, the space between us felt heavier. “You have nowhere else to go. You’re coming with us." he said with finality. I couldn't put up any fight, what's even the point, I actually have no place to stay. Aurelia leaviher father, and rushes to hold my hands. While we head out. I noticed a big car waiting, as we got to the car someone opens the door for us. I noticed a few people staring, I wonder what's going on through their minds. I'm sure this will be another topic for g

The next morning, I woke up with a sense of purpose. For the first time since the ceremony, I had a plan. It wasn't much of one, but it was enough. I was going to find somewhere else to stay. The room Agatha had given me was comfortable. Too comfortable. The soft mattress, the warm blankets, the expensive furniture, I could get used to all of it if I wasn't careful. And that was exactly the problem. This wasn't my home. No matter how kind Aurelia had been. No matter how generous Alpha Kael was being. Sooner or later, I would have to leave. The sooner I accepted that, the better. After getting dressed, I made my way downstairs. The smell of breakfast drifted through the hallways. As I entered the dining room, Aurelia's face lit up. "Aria!" She abandoned all interest in the food in front of her and practically bounced in her seat. I couldn't help smiling. "Good morning, Aurelia." I said. "Good morning, Alpha Kael." He gave a brief nod. "Come sit b

I headed back to the Blackwood Estate, exhausted and discouraged. The sun was already beginning to set, painting the sky in shades of orange and gold. I hadn't found a place. Not a single one. Everywhere I went, doors seemed to close the moment people recognized my name. I wrapped my arms around myself. Staying at the estate was becoming a problem, but leaving seemed impossible. And after the conversations I had overheard in town, I couldn't afford to stay much longer. People were already talking. I couldn't let them think Alpha Kael was keeping me. The thought alone made my stomach twist. As I approached the gates, one of the guards immediately straightened. Relief flashed across his face. "Thank the Moon Goddess you're back, Miss Aria." I frowned. "What happened?" The guard shifted awkwardly. "Alpha Kael was considering sending wolves to look for you." I blinked. A search party? Surely that was unnecessary. Unless... "Aurelia?" I asked.

I helped Aurelia change to something presentable, so that we could go get breakfast. I picked out a simple outfit for her, a light dress, comfortable enough for movement but warm enough for her still recovering body. She watched me carefully. “Do you always dress people?” I paused slightly. “No.” “Then why me?” The question was innocent. But it landed deeper than it should have. I helped her into the dress before answering. “Because you’re sick.” She hummed as if accepting that explanat
