Marked and forgotten by the Alpha

"Aria," He called my name so sweetly as my legs wobbled. No, no, no..I can't fall for his charms again. "Don't touch me!" My voice betrayed me. A moan came out as Lucas drew closer to me. "What do you think, that I will ever let you go? Never ever..." His breath fanned my face, and one more trick from him, then I'm doomed. I'm here for revenge, but he wants to ruin me. *** Aria, the girl everyone knows as the one marked under the blood moon.

CHAPTER FOUR

LUCAS POV

I caught Aria in my arms before she could reach the ground. For a moments everything stopped moving like it's just the both of us existing.

"What just happened?" I questioned no one in particular.

Some minutes ago,she was screaming at the top of her lungs and now she's unconscious in my hands. I stared at her fragile,pale face that was rest on my chest.

"Aria " I tapped her cheek but I didn't get any response.

Her eyelids were still and her eyes were still glowing red.

"Aria, please open your eyes" I tapped her cheeks but she didn't moved a finger.

I pressed my forehead on her hand and shut my eyes. I know here wolf is gradually waking up, I'm aware of that. I've studied Alpha manuals, how to awake your wolf and even people who got possessed for wolf but Aria own case is different.

I wasn't prepared for this. I started feeling her energy coming back. Her faint heartbeat could be heard. All of a sudden she jerked back to life. She pushed me out of the way with full force and I gasped.

"Aria..." I tried reaching her but she growled loudly and went on all fours and ran into the woods.

"Oh no" I gasped and ran after her.

Getting to the woods, I saw her lying on the floor. She has transformed into her normal self already and her clothes were off. I quickly ran to meet her, taking off my jacket and wrapping her up with it.

"Be safe, Aria... I beg you" I heaved and carried her into my arms and began leaving the woods.

I headed to my room keeping my eyes on the way I as walked. I came across Aria on the way. She was sweating profusely like someone who just ran a marathon.

She walked by my side. I could feel her eyes on me but I choosed to ignore.

"What happened to her?" She paused. "Is that your jacket around her body?" She seethed. "Why is that?" She questioned with a scoff rolling her eyes in the process.

"As you can see Mira, I'm not in the mood for long talk can you please go back to the field and continue with your training?" I said and I saw the hatred in her eyes but she covered it with a smile.

"I'm not returning to the field till evening. I have something to tell you. It's about the__"

"I'll be extremely busy today. Can you please send the message through my Beta?" I said.

"No, it's really important. The message is for you specially and I fear that if I don't deliver it sooner something terrible would happen" She replied.

"If you can't send it through my Beta tomorrow then forget about it" I continued with my walk, ignoring her totally.

Mira can be a pain in the ass most times and I can't stand to see her start behaving like she owns my life.

My eyes fell on Aria's face as she slept peacefully. Her eyelids shook a little and a small small curled up in my lips.

I got to my suite and headed for my room. The guards at the door opened up and I went in.

I placed her on the bed gently and went to the window and drew the curtains close. The moon was still glowing red. I exchanged a quick glance with Aria and inhaled shortly.

I walked to the bathroom and filled a bowl with enough water and picked a small napkin from the closet and then walked back to the bed and drenched it before placing it on Aria's forehead.

She must've been exhausted after shifting for the first time and I understand her perfectly well. She has been waiting for this day to come and it finally did.

The crescent moon on her neck was glowing and I swallowed hard and looked away.

A knock came on the door and I stood up and went to the door and turned the door knob and the messenger face came to view. He had a small note in his hand, with his head bowed he stretched out the note.

"From who?" I asked, taking the note.

"From Ethan Dreagor. He said he wants to speak with you but you have been busy these days so he sent a letter instead" He replied.

"Is that so?" I muttered, staring at the note all through.

"Yes Alpha" He said.

"You can go" I said and he bowed one last time before taking his leave. I shut the door behind and walked to the study table and turned on the small lamb.

*The glowing moon means that the cursed child is finally gaining her abilities and I'm sure you noticed it already. Something needs to be done before she changes completely. A meeting would be held tomorrow at the castle in two days time and at the same time you're getting crowned as the king. Be prepared because it's going to be messy*

I squeezed the note into tiny fold before dumping it into the trashcan beside me.

I clasped my hands together while staring at Aria. The book I read about marked and cursed children from the old library shouldn't be true.

I hope her fate gets change and she shouldn't suffer in the hands of those who wants her.

The unknown man earlier at the filed words replayed in my head. I dived my fingers into my hair, breathing hard. The exact moment they noticed she's starting to get her powers her enemies would start coming and she needs to be prepared for anything further.

"Lucas..." I turned to see her, sitting on the bed with her legs drew to her chest while staring at me with those ambers eyes since her eyes has gone back to normal and her hair is back to normal as well.

"What happened?" She added, her eyes locking with mine.

Cole's hands smoothed down my back, over the curve of my ass. "Naughty girls get punished before they get taught." His palm connected with my right cheek in a sharp, stinging slap. "Suck it, Aria," Kai ordered, his grip tightening on her cock while he gave inside my mouth. "Get it nice and wet. That's your only job right now." "She's gonna come," Reed announced as he fingered my cunt. "Look at her. Gonna squirt all over the fucking table. Do it, Aria. Come on, your stepbrothers' hands."

Mated To My Ex's Ruthless Brother

8.5

At 3:12 AM, a call from the NYPD shattered the silence of my dorm. My childhood sweetheart and the city’s golden heir, Liam Sterling, was in custody and needed me to bail him out. I rushed to the precinct, trembling as I swiped my father’s emergency credit card for five thousand dollars, only to watch Liam walk out and head straight for another woman. He had landed in a cell because he’d started a brawl to protect Jade—a girl with pink hair and a jagged attitude—while I was just the "best friend" he called to clean up his mess. In the backseat of the cab I paid for, I watched the man I loved pull her into his lap, treating me like an invisible chauffeur. When I finally demanded the truth, he didn't apologize; he reminded me that our families were tied by a multi-million dollar merger and that I was "like a sister" to him. My own mother echoed his coldness, telling me to stop being dramatic because our family was secretly bankrupt and we needed the Sterling money to survive. I spent years being his "good girl," even recording a fake video for the press claiming he was a hero who fought to defend my honor. But the illusion shattered when I saw the photos of him with Jade on my birthday—the same night he told me he was working late to secure our future. "I love you, Zoe. Like I love my dog. You’re loyal, but you’re boring." I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was his shield. He used the trauma of the day he "saved" my life to keep me in his debt, never realizing that the chains of gratitude had finally snapped. As the Sterling empire began to crumble under a sudden leak of scandals, I didn't run back to Liam. Instead, I looked at the encrypted message from his dangerous, outcast brother, Julian, who had been waiting in the shadows. He didn't just offer me a way out; he offered to buy my family's debt and claim me as the collateral.
