Werewolf

Buried Under The Full Moon

by Soda

It was year four of my arranged marriage to Lucas.Then Roderick invaded our land. He was the most powerful Alpha on the West Coast. One look was all it took. The Moon Goddess snapped our mate bond into place.Right in front of everyone, he stole me away and dragged me to his packhouse.For three years, he spoiled me rotten. Every wolf pack in North America burned with envy.He gave me free rein over the best medical labs. My inner wolf was weak from old scars, so he held me tight every single full moon. When wolfsbane nearly killed me, this ruthless Alpha dropped a ten-billion-dollar merger. He sat by my hospital bed for days and never closed his eyes once.His devotion was loud and shameless. I fell for it. I truly believed I was finally home.Then came the eve of our Luna ceremony. Chloe, the woman he never truly let go, was brought back in secret.It was all a lie. My fairy tale was just a decoy for his enemies across the border.That was the only way to keep them from torturing Chloe in their cells.Now his real girl is safe. My job as his decoy shield is officially over.The night before, he slides an exile contract across the table. His face is cold."Drink this concentrated inhibitor. Step onto the stage tomorrow and reject the mate bond.""Once the bond snaps, the drug will fake your death. Everyone will think the backlash killed you. My men will sneak you out to the East Coast before sunrise."I let out a bitter laugh. Before he wiped my existence clean, I asked for one final visit to my home pack.Lucas and my parents circled around me. Their faces were full of panic, pleading with me to play nice."Be a good girl. Go live as a rogue. The whole pack will thank you for this."They all forgot one small detail. Ripping the bond apart will shatter my broken inner wolf completely.I raise the glass.I swallow every single drop.If this land has no room for me, and they all want me gone. I will commit suicide and give them the corpse they want.
