When a powerful Alpha Ryle claims her as his mate, her excitement is cut short when Alpha Ryle suffers from pain just by touching her and might die if they keep their bond. When Arya sets out to find out what secrets lie around her, she is thrown into a world of danger and sacrifice that ties back to her mate's family. What happens when Arya and Ryle find out that they have repeated the cycle before, with one of them always ending up dead? Can they break the curse without facing the wrath of the goddess?

Curse of the Alpha's Mate Chapter 1 Mate

Something bad was going to happen. Or at least that's what I felt when I stepped into the large field that was being used to host the blood moon festival.

"I didn't think she would show up to this."

"Isn't this a sacred ceremony? Should she be here?"

I heard whispers from my pack members as I walked through the crowd. Even though they whispered the words, they knew I could hear them. They didn't care.

I had been isolated my whole life. Well, since I was five and both of my parents died at least.

Everyone believed I killed my parents because I was found in the pool of their blood. I was five and had just woken up to find my parents murdered in their own cold blood. I only tried to wake them up when someone walked in and accused me of doing it. Everyone else followed suit.

But from how mangled their bodies were, they definitely knew deep down that a five year old couldn't have done that. Especially one who wasn't born with a wolf.

I soon figured that they hated me more because I didn't have a wolf than because of the suspicions of me killing my parents.

"What are you doing here?" Alpha Damon, the alpha of my pack, asked as he pulled me aside. "You know this is a special night for this pack since we're hosting for the first time in a long time."

"I thought everyone was supposed to be in attendance..." My voice turned into a whisper when I saw the glare he sent my way.

"You should know that was just a formality in the announcement. You've isolated yourself already. Why come out now?"

"I can go back home, Alpha Damon," I offered, looking down at my feet. I could feel people from my pack and other packs looking our way and wondering what the problem was.

"You don't have to. You made it all the way here anyway. But if one thing happens and you're in the middle of it, you'll be banished. Consider it punishment for what you did to your parents."

His words sounded like a slap to my face. Nobody would believe me, not even the alpha of my pack. Everyone thought I killed your parents fifteen years ago, and I've had to live with it since.

Nobody sold anything to me or talked to me if they didn't have to. I taught myself how to hunt so you wouldn't starve.

I stood in the corner of the field as I hoped nobody would pay attention to me, but that sinking feeling still remained.

The feeling only accelerated when the members of Nightfang pack finally made it into the field.

"Alpha Ryle and the subjects of his pack, Nightfang!" The announcer called out as they walked in, everyone of them with their heads held high.

My eyes scanned them all, stopping when I set eyes on one of them. He walked behind everyone else with a smug look on his face. His hair was dark and his eyes held the same darkness.

"Who...is he?" I whispered as my legs moved forward. I didn't even know I was walking in his direction until I found myself standing behind a group of people who wouldn't move and I had to stand on my toes to get a good look at him.

As if he could sense my eyes on him, his eyes travelled in my direction so fast that it affected how my heart beat.

I gasped. My legs were glued to the ground. His eyes went from being dark to glowing golden, and I wasn't the only one who noticed.

"Mate," he growled, causing the members of Nightfang pack to turn their heads in his direction.

"What..." The rest of my words died in my throat.

It couldn't be. This man couldn't be my mate. I couldn't possibly have a mate. That's what my pack members told me at least. They said I was cursed by the Moon Goddess for killing my parents and I would never get a mate.

I had believed them. Even though I knew I didn't kill my parents, I did believe I was cursed.

But this man... He was walking toward me and calling me his mate.

"Alpha Ryle," Alpha Damon called out to him, placing a hand on his shoulder to stop him from reaching me. "Perhaps there's been a mistake somewhere. That's Arya. She can't possibly have a mate, let alone an alpha."

He was the alpha of Nightfang pack. I was mated to the infamous alpha of Nightfang pack. Someone I had only heard about up until this moment. Someone who seemed like a mythical creature to me.

"Surely, you don't think I would make a mistake in knowing who my mate is," Alpha Ryle replied, glaring at Alpha Damon. "Is that what you're implying?"

Alpha Damon could sense where this was going, so he took his hand off Alpha Ryle's shoulder.

I clutched my chest as he approached me, now standing in front of me. My heart was racing in ways it had never raced before. Not even when I was hunting.

"Your name is Arya?" He asked to confirm.

"Y-yes," I stuttered, unable to even look him in the eyes.

"You... My wolf calls for you. You will be my Luna."

Gasps and whispers immediately filled the air as he confirmed it. Even I found it impossible. I was frozen in place, scared that this moment would end in a blink and I would wake up to find out that it was a dream.

"I..." There was nothing I could possibly say. I just stood there. Was the Moon Goddess possibly this generous? Was this a cruel joke? Judging by how dangerously fast my heart was beating, I didn't think it was. I felt it too. He was my mate.

"You're my mate, Arya," Alpha Ryle said, reaching out and taking both of my hands.

I finally managed to look up at him, but what I saw was the last thing I was expecting.

His face was twisting, his brows were creasing. He looked as if he was in agony.

And then, he let out an ear-piercing scream.

As I lay on the floor of our manor, bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, I used my last ounce of strength to call my husband, Cole. I begged him for help, my vision blurring. But the only thing I heard was the clinking of champagne glasses and his mistress's giggle in the background. "Stop the drama, June," Cole snapped, his voice cold. "We're about to go on stage. Don't call again." He hung up, leaving me to die alone on the Persian rug while he accepted an award with another woman on his arm. I woke up in the hospital days later. My baby was gone. They had removed my fallopian tube. Cole finally arrived, smelling of expensive scotch and his mistress's perfume. He didn't hug me. He didn't cry. Instead, he leaned over my hospital bed, pressing his knee into the mattress until my fresh stitches tore open and bled. "You embarrassed me by calling an ambulance," he hissed. "My mistress, Alycia, says you're faking it. Clean yourself up." He left me bleeding again to go announce a $10 million donation to Alycia's "groundbreaking" medical research. I stared at the TV screen, numb. The research Alycia was taking credit for? It was mine. I wrote that patent years ago under a pseudonym. They thought I was just a poor, orphan housewife who needed Cole's money to survive. They had no idea I was actually a billionaire scientist hiding my identity. I pulled the IV needle out of my arm. A drop of blood fell onto the divorce papers I had been hiding. I didn't wipe it off. I signed my name right over it. Then I walked into the bank, reactivated my dormant account with $128 million, and bought the penthouse directly overlooking Cole's house. The mourning widow is dead. The avenger is born.

No Longer Mrs. Cooley: The Architect's Return

Xiao Xiaosu

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.
