His Regret, My Escape Chapter 1 MY MATE IS THE ALPHA KING

OLYMPIA'S POV

I stood at the edge of the grand hall. My heart was beating, racing in anticipation. The air was electric with the collective longing of our pack. Twenty-one years of searching, twenty-one years of disappointment. Yet tonight, I could feel it in my bones: this would be the year I found him. The Mating Festival was ordained, a centuries-long practice-a holy ritual for our pack to collectively rejoice at the consummation of two spirits. The air held so much anticipation; pheromones hung heavy in the crowd. I closed my eyes and inhaled deeply, letting that animalistic energy course through me. My eyes met those of so many hopefuls in the room, each in search of his perfect match. Some were wriggling in anticipation and some had set their faces to imply expectation of winning-sureness in their eyes gleaming with a sense of entitlement. The drums echoed across the hall, signaling the commencement of the ceremony. There was silence in the room as all eyes turned toward the alpha pair standing at the center. They raised their hands, and the crowd erupted into cheers. The search began! I perceived a cold minty floral scent and just followed it as there was no doubt. Tall, dark, and devastatingly handsome, he stood across the room, his eyes scanning the room but I couldn't make out his face. There was something very familiar about him. Could it be? Could he have been the one? I pushed through the crowd; my heart racing with excitement, when suddenly, just as I reached him, he turned and stared down at me, and in his eyes was so much hatred. Oh no, it's Silas, the newly crowned Alpha of this pack. "Mate!" he snarled, an unpleasant one at that. No! I can't lose him now! I stood before Alpha Silas, and my heart was adrenaline-pumping with excitement. All my life, I had been in search of my mate, and now I finally found him. Or rather, so I thought. My eyes met his, and in them, for a flash, I felt a flicker of recognition. It was replaced in a moment by his usual stern expression. "Everyone, please stop," he commanded, his voice echoing down the hall. "Musicians, cease playing." The room fell silent, all eyes fixed on us. I felt a squirmy feeling. What was this? "Olympia, I think there has been an error here," Alpha Silas said firmly but without anger. "You don't know that," I whispered, finding it hard to voice out words well. But in his eyes, I saw only scorn and revulsion. "You think you are worthy of being my mate?" he sneered at me; his voice oozed with malice. "You're nothing but a weak, pathetic outcast." I felt as if his words had slapped me. "I.I thought we had some kind of a connection," I said, trying to hit back. Alpha Silas laughed out loud, the sound completely devoid of humor. "You can't even connect with me. You are a disappointment, Olympia. A failure." I felt my eyes prick at the corners as the room seemed to close in around me. The music had stopped, and the only sound was those venomous alpha words. "Who wants a weak, useless omega as a mate?" He actually spoke it in front of the crowd before us, then everybody laughed. Throwing spiteful words at me. It hurts so bad. Dark mind! Dark heart! Dark soul! Happiness Killers, Living Demons. If only my mistakes can be stated. "I, Alpha Silas Moore of the Black Hitten pack, reject you, Olympia Swan, as my mate. You are not fit to stand by my side, bear my children, or hold the title of a Luna." I felt my heart crashing into a thousand pieces when Cassie and her crew suddenly started talking. " Olympia is Alpha Silas's mate?" Crystal exclaimed, though bringing forth gasps from the crowd as its eyes flew impossibly wider at their staring, furrowing their brows and curling their lips into a sneer. I shrieked, looking away from them, wringing my hands together to obvious my mind off their hateful glares or I might detonate into a loud weal. "How could that be? that's so bad luck" Cassie chipped in, compassion lacing her tone. "I feel so sad for him, he deserves better". Crystal echoed to the ears of everyone, sighing heavily and looking down pretending to be sorrowful. There were murmurs about this circumstance, running around and around again, and I turned my eyes to Sila's uncertainty. His eyebrows seemed to be drawn together in some sort of frown, jaw clenched, nostril flare. "See what you have caused?" he asked, his lips pressed to thin lines. Instantly, I drew my eyes from him, down to my feet, biting my lips and fidgeting at the same time. "Why does it just have to be you?" he questioned silently and I kept mute not knowing what to say in reply but feeling my heartbeat racing like insane, like it was about to pop out my chest. "I have waited 30 years, only to end up with a crap like you?" he asked with disbelief, scoffing. I, however, was just standing there, silent in front of him, with tears rolling down my cheeks. I couldn't hold it anymore, and I had a very bad feeling that something unfortunate was about to happen. I walked out of the scene in absolute weakness and exhaustiveness. I swear I strolled up to that bar, heels clicking across the floor, announcing the time bomb that was about to go off. I plopped onto a stool, nodding to signal for the bartender. "Your hottest drink, please. And make it a double." Shot after shot, I gulped down the drink, each one charging my emotional inferno. At the corners of my eyes, tears pricked, and I let them flow in silent sobs that raked my body. The room grew dim; my heart was slipping into a haze of despair. A set of fingers wrapped about my face, gentle yet firm, I turned my face towards him only to meet a set of dark eyes.

I was sitting in the Presidential Suite of The Pierre, wearing a Vera Wang gown worth more than most people earn in a decade. It was supposed to be the wedding of the century, the final move to merge two of Manhattan's most powerful empires. Then my phone buzzed. It was an Instagram Story from my fiancé, Jameson. He was at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris with a caption that read: "Fuck the chains. Chasing freedom." He hadn't just gotten cold feet; he had abandoned me at the altar to run across the world. My father didn't come in to comfort me. He burst through the door roaring about a lost acquisition deal, telling me the Holland Group would strip our family for parts if the ceremony didn't happen by noon. My stepmother wailed about us becoming the laughingstock of the Upper East Side. The Holland PR director even suggested I fake a "panic attack" to make myself look weak and sympathetic to save their stock price. Then Jameson’s sleazy cousin, Pierce, walked in with a lopsided grin, offering to "step in" and marry me just to get his hands on my assets. I looked at them and realized I wasn't a daughter or a bride to anyone in that room. I was a failed asset, a bouncing check, a girl whose own father told her to go to Paris and "beg" the man who had just publicly humiliated her. The girl who wanted to be loved died in that mirror. I realized that if I was going to be sold to save a merger, I was going to sell myself to the one who actually controlled the money. I marched past my parents and walked straight into the VIP holding room. I looked the most powerful man in the room—Jameson’s cold, ruthless uncle, Fletcher Holland—dead in the eye and threw the iPad on the table. "Jameson is gone," I said, my voice as hard as stone. "Marry me instead."

Trigger/Content Warning: This story contains mature themes and explicit content intended for adult audiences(18+). Reader discretion is advised. It includes elements such as BDSM dynamics, explicit sexual content, toxic family relationships, occasional violence and strong language. This is not a fluffy romance. It is intense, raw and messy, and explores the darker side of desire. ***** "Take off your dress, Meadow." "Why?" "Because your ex is watching," he said, leaning back into his seat. "And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.
