Arranged For The Cruel Alpha

ANNABELLA'S POV

' You have always wanted to leave this pack and I guess this is it. I should have known how cheap and desperate you are. Who the hell did you think you were? '

'I'm sorry Summer, it's my father's decision and not mine '

' I hope you will be happy with that ruthless beast. You both deserve each other '

I turned on my back to face the ceiling with tears stuck in my eyes as I recalled my conversation with Summer earlier. " I wish this whole madness would stop," I whispered, clenching my fingers tightly on the surrounding sheet.

' I have decided to marry you off to Alpha Roman instead of your sister because the pack will need her and her mate', were my father's exact words when he called me to his office.

I pulled down the sheet from my body, stepped down from the bed, and walked slowly towards the window in my white night dress, my long black hair falling smoothly behind my back. The cold night breeze raced inside the room. Immediately, I pushed the window open, my skin feeling the coldness and my bleeding heart turning hopeless in my chest. Why me and not Olivia? I thought, my hand pressed against my chest in pain.

'But father, I also have my mate, and we are planning to get married. '

'Summer is a beta wolf, and he doesn't need a wolf-less mate.' Father's words hurt, and besides being wolf-less has never been a problem between Summer and me, but why now?

I shut my eyes to let down my heavy tears. It couldn't have hurt any less. The pain was ripping my heart out of my chest and I wish I could just make it stop. It hurts a lot to be told the truth, especially by the people you love.

' You will only get him killed if you mate him. Summer is a good kid, and I am planning on handing the pack over to him and making Olivia his mate, so better make up your mind'

I ran my hand on my aching chest while standing by the window with tears wailing down my face as I recall every conversation I had with my father concerning this marriage thing.

' Did Summer know this?'

' Summer is aware, and you are the only person standing in the way '

I lowered my head painfully and just then a soft knock came through the door. I turned back before cleaning my face to receive whoever it was. " Come in," I said, folding my hands on my chest. " Anna, a parcel has arrived for you." One of my pack's omegas informed me.

" Is my name written on it?" I asked with a nonchalant face. " Not really, but it fits your description," she said, and I frowned as I ordered her to leave it on my bed.

I heard the door shut, back, and I sighed, letting myself turn to look at what it was that was sent to me and who it could be from. " My Bride" I read it out loud with a deep frown on my face. I took off the tag angrily and shredded it into pieces before shoving the red box under my bed for good. I still can't believe I am getting married tomorrow.

I sat on my bed with tears welling up in my eyes. How could I get married and forget all my promises to him? I shut my eyes painfully and the door just opened.
