Arranged For The Cruel Alpha

ANNABELLA’S POV

I texted Summer, and asked him to meet me at the small park near the border and I was happy he agreed.

I hope he agrees to leave the pack with me because I couldn’t imagine my life without him, and the fact that he went out with Olivia made me want to pull her hair out, it really set my heart ablaze and it hurts seeing mate with another.

I walked out of the house carefully making sure no one was around to stop me, with my small bag hanging on my shoulder, making sure to empty my savings box. We would need the money once we were out of the pack. I got out of the house in no time and set off towards the park, happy to meet Summer.

I ran my way through the darkness as I couldn’t wait, constantly looking back to be certain I wasn’t followed. I finally found myself in the huge clearing, the same place I used to play with Summer when we were kids.

So many beautiful memories.

Summer and I had been together since I could remember, and I was glad to be chosen as his mate and not only his best friend. A smile tagged on my lips as I recalled those days when I would spend the whole day with him on this field. He wasn’t entirely mean to me when we were kids because he would scold anyone who bullied me, even though he was my biggest bully.

I stared around and noticed him walking towards me from the other edge. He was dressed in blue jeans and a black shirt with his hair looking like usual.

My legs just couldn’t wait as I ran into his arms, wrapped my arms around his waist tightly and my head rested on his broad chest. I had wanted to do this the moment he showed up at the dinner” Summer”. I moaned his name, closing my eyes. Back then, my only fear was that Summer would leave me because I was Wolf-less, but now it was my father and Olivia.

” Why did you ask me to come here?” He asked impatiently as if he couldn’t stand my present, but that wasn’t possible because he loved me too much to hate my present. ” Summer, I am sorry about everything. I know I had always wanted to leave this pack, but not without you. Believe me, when I say I love you” I said, and he pulled away, slightly unwrapping my hands from his waist,” Let’s leave this pack, I know it’s crazy, but that is the only way we can be together” I pleaded, staring up hopefully in his eyes. His eyes widened a little as he glared back at me. ” Yes, I want us to leave this pack and settle somewhere. I don’t want to live without you, I don’t want to get married, I don’t want to stay in this pack, I’m tired of being the other daughter, I want to find a new life with you, I just want to be happy with you like we used to” I teared up.

I missed those days when he would spend the entire day with me on this field and constantly remind me how much he loved me.

He was the best thing that ever happened to me and just like I loved him. He loved and cherished me unconditionally despite me being Wolf-less. The kind of love I never got from my parents was given to me by him and I would appreciate it for the rest of my life. “Just agree and let’s leave together. I want us to settle somewhere else” I took his hand as I looked up at him.” You think it’s okay” It wasn’t a question but I nodded, willing to take the step “I promise we will be happy together ”

” Stop it, Anna”. He cut me off before I could finish.

“How can you be this selfish? I thought you promised me you would stay in this pack” he said angrily, and I lowered my head.” Do you want to leave your family and run away? I never thought you could be this heartless?” He accused me, and I felt tears in my eyes. What was he talking about? He just called me selfish when he knew I wasn’t the problem here.

” The pack is going down, and you think it’s alright to leave?” he sounded as if I was the bad guy here.” Wait, did you expect me to agree to marry him?” A part of me wanted to know his answer while another part wished I didn’t ask” It’s okay to make some sacrifice for the people we love” he replied coldly, and I trembled back” You can’t possibly be serious” I shook my head with a painful smile on my face.” My family doesn’t care about me and you know it. You are definitely not blind to not noticing how much the pack hates my guts.” I was only safe in this pack because the alpha was my father. I couldn’t tell how long they would keep their claws off my flesh because now it was obvious my family didn’t care about me, since they were willing to sacrifice my life for the betterment of the pack and that of Olivia. What about me?

” Please do this for us. Let’s leave this pack together. I’m sure we will get another pack to join once we are out of this place” I have always wanted to live somewhere else, somewhere far from this pack, but not like this. I wanted it to be a journey, not a run. I stared pleadingly at him while holding onto his hand.

“Let’s get married somewhere,” I said desperately, and he gently pushed me aside and turned to strode back.” Summer!” I ran after him, leaving my bag on the ground. I was determined to make everything right, I understood he was angry with me because I didn’t tell him about the marriage thing, but that was because I didn’t want to hurt him.” Can you hear me out first!” I yelled, and he stopped.

I grabbed his shirt from behind, and he stopped.” Summer, I don’t want to marry him,” I said, with tearing eyes. I couldn’t imagine myself with that ugly beast.” Am scared, Summer”. I was terrified, not like there was anyone who would be happy being in my shoes. Alpha Roman wasn’t a good man. The rumor of him killing his uncle wasn’t a good one. I couldn’t imagine myself married to that said beast. ” Summer….” Murmured, pleadingly.

” Annabella” he called my name in full and my lips hung open. My wet teary eyes stared back at him in confusion.

During my years with Summer, he only enjoyed calling me by my nickname. He never once called me by my full name, just like right now.” Don’t you get it?!” He growled. Startled, I trembled back.” Your marriage with that beast is the easiest way to save the pack from going south.”

What?

” Summer” Someone called sweetly, and my eyes flew to my side and frowned the moment I saw Olivia walking towards us with a familiar smirk on her face. I watched quietly as she paused beside Summer and grabbed onto his arms tightly.

Her smell hit me and the frown on my face deepened. She smelled just like him and Summer smelled exactly like her! Were they together?

” What are you doing here?” I asked, my heart racing in my chest.” Isn’t it obvious?” She leaned more against him with a smile that brought fear to my face.” I should be asking you that because you ruined my night with my mate” Olivia accused, and my gaze shifted to Summer who was letting Olivia touch him in front of me without any attempt to stop her.” He is my fated mate, Olivia” I reminded, frowning as she shamelessly slipped her hand into his.

” As if he thinks the same”, she rolled her eyes and my eyes slowly went to Summer’s cold face.

I was expecting him to pull away from her or ignore her just like he usually did, but he didn’t do any of it.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

He seemed calm as if it was okay for my sister to hold hands with him, tears threatening to leave me. ” He will soon be declared the alpha of this pack, so learn to accord him some respect” Olivia scolded, and my lips parted with tears running down my face.”Alpha?” My gaze flickered to Olivia who was clutching onto my boyfriend like a second skin.

” Tell her the truth, Summer, unless you want me to tell her,” Olivia threatened, and I sniffed, wiping away my tears.

” T-tell me w-what?” I asked, confused.” I can tell her if you won’t tell her…” Olivia sang out with an evil smile” I’m sorry, Annabella” Summer started, wrapping his hand around Olivia’s shoulders” Olivia and I are getting married soon” he said nonchalantly, and I blinked, tears running down my cheek.

I felt my feet shaking and my chest hemming. ” You promised me you would never break our bond”, I murmured pitifully and painfully, my heart shattered into a million pieces. His words were like a digger struck in my chest, right into my heart.

” Promises are meant to be broken, dear Annabella” Olivia teased, and I shook my head in disbelief. The Summer I knew wouldn’t do this to me. He would never hurt me like this because we were mates.” Summer will never hurt me” I protested and grabbed her hand angrily to pull her away from him, but he pushed me to the ground instead.” You have no right to touch Olivia. I won’t warm you again” he threatened, sounding like a different person. He was no longer sounding like the sweet and loving mate I was willing to live the rest of my life with.

” Did my father force you to do this?” I asked with tears stuck in my eyes. I didn’t understand why he could change and forget everything so quickly. He promised we would be together till death. He told me he would never stop loving me no matter what, but now, tears slipped out of my eyes.” Don’t be naive, Annabella Summer is done with a wolf-less she-wolf like yourself.” Olivia said dryly, but my attention wasn’t on her. I was trying to wrap my head around what just happened even though it was hard for me to take it in.

He used to protect me from Olivia, but now it was the exact opposite.

” Let’s leave, Olivia” Summer, my best friend of fifteen years and boyfriend of three years, said to my sister and, just like that, they started walking away. I felt pain in my heart as I watched them walk hand in hand like love birds. It was as if my heart was on fire.

Seeing him leave with Olivia felt like a goodbye, something I never thought would ever happen. Was it so easy for him to just let everything go?

Did Summer really mean what he said?

I felt my throat dry up as I fought so hard to not break down.
