Those words shatter the fragile peace Rosa has clung to for four years... *********************************************** For four years, Rosa has been a prisoner in her own home, confined to a single room by her evil brother, Lance, after a tragedy shattered their family.

THE ALPHA'S OBSESSION Chapter 1 Four Years, Four Walls

Rosa's POV.

"It is time Rosa."

My heart gave a mad jump and I spun around from the window.

For the first time in nearly three years I had heard those words spoken directly to me. Sharp, clipped resonating like a war horn through the room's stale silence. I slowly turned away from the window gripping the faded curtains with my fingers.

The sunlight had long since started to feel cold and distant against my skin like the touch of a stranger. It had been since the end of the world that I had left this room, this gilded cage. Two unknown female gammas stood on either side of Lance, my ruthless brother who stood like a storm.

He wore ceremonial black squared, his broad shoulders and had a fixed jaw. Compared to my memory he appeared older. more irate. Or perhaps I had lost the ability to read his facial expressions.

My voice broke like parched leaves as I whispered "Lance..."I was more surprised than he was. "You're here."

He glanced at me, his eyes calculating and keen. "You look like a ghost."

"I believe I am one."

They looked away, the gammas. I was unconcerned. Let them see. Allow them to gaze at the girl who hasn't discussed anything in four years. I was that cursed girl, the girl whose scream was so loud that it shook the walls. The shadows darker than night had glowed in the hands of that person.

"You are no longer a prisoner." he declared. "You will be introduced at tomorrow's mating ceremony."

My chest was slammed with my heart. "What?"

"You heard me." His boots clicked on the polished floor as he took a step deeper. "You've spent enough time imprisoned. Now is the moment for you to rejoin the pack."

"No." The word was stifling and silent as it reverberated inside me.

My whole body shook. Not able to breathe. "No." I muttered out loud. "You can't be serious."

"It's been fixed,Rosa. Tomorrow you will be given to your mate."

I felt my blood freezing. "He's not even someone I know." Before I could stop myself I raised my voice. "You can't just share me like-like an offering!"

Lance's mouth formed a shape that was not quite a smile. "You have freedom my dear sister."

"Freedom?" I chuckled, arid and resentful. "Do you call this, locking me up for four years and then dropping me like a cursed relic into someone else's hands?"

He turned his gaze away from me and toward the window that I had been gazing out of all day. "On the day our parents passed away you locked yourself in."

"You did in fact." I took a step forward clenching my fists. "I was in mourning. I didn't understand. I was- I was hesitant."

I could still feel the memory of that day in my lungs like smoke. The power had emerged from me in a monstrous manner. Not under control. crazy. Terrible.

"I was the reason you were scared."

He did not dispute it. Any admission was overshadowed by his silence. He said icily "Remember what you did Rosa?. Because I do, do you recall what it looked like when you lost control? You were a freaking curse and you still are. I saw the shadows scuttling like poison from your skin as you screamed. You think I'll let that get away with it?"

My knees gave way under me. "It wasnt me" I trembled and whispered. "I didn't intend to. I had no idea what was going on."

He snarled his voice cutting through me "You never do. . You've been in here for that reason since the others didn't want to perish in their beds."

I gasped and my heart shattered into a thousand pieces as tears welled up in my eyes. His words struck like ice water to the face for their cruelty. He was terrified of more than just me. He detested me. He always had.

With tears in my eyes I choked out "I didn't kill anyone .I didn't-"

Lance cut me off. "But you could have" he remarked acerbically. "You're not even sure who you are. What is that thing within you? So don't lecture me about grief or fairness. When no one else was willing to keep you alive I did. And this is how you pay me back? By being weak and complaining?"

Then he looked at the gammas. "Prepare her. Get her ready for tomorrow."

With a nod they went to the closet and took out furs and silks. One of them with an unreadable expression threw a pale silver gown onto the bed. As if it were a noose I gazed at it.

Elira, my maid , had been my only companion for four years. We didn't even talk at that point. She would bring food, do some quiet cleaning and go. I wished she would not speak. Nobody should in my opinion.

After my parents' deaths words had lost their meaning. Everything was there. Just standing by that window would sometimes cause me to lose hours or even days. observing the forest that sways outside the pack's boundaries, pondering the sensation of freedom.

I'm unsure if I truly earned it. I had been alone both inside and out with only shadows. Every day got darker as I slept to my own thoughts and woke up to silence.

Occasionally the mirror would suddenly break. Things occasionally shook, floated or broke. My feelings had become angular. My claws, my thoughts. As much for their safety as for mine they had kept me in this room.

Just like that? They wanted to send me off to a stranger now? I choked back a sob.

I said "Please Lance."I was now trembling when I spoke. "Is it impossible for you to identify him? To whom am I being given?"

He was already walking to the door, with cruelty and power trailing behind him like a cloak, he was even more fearful than the past four years he'd shut me off from the pack and their hateful rumors.

Halfway to the door, he stopped and placed his hand on the frame. I thought for a second that he would ignore me once more.

He turned slightly. A cruel smirk appeared on his face as he glanced over his shoulder. Perhaps it was sympathy or victory. I was no longer able to tell.

"You'll find out soon enough, dear sister."

I am ANNABEL DRAKE, a woman who has spent her entire life in the shadows of others. A forgotten girl child, and also an underestimated employee, in fact I am everything you can think of because I have been through a lot . It started after my father was imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit. My family lost everything: our fortune, our home, and most painfully, our dignity. My mother fell ill under the weight of disgrace, and I became the sole provider, fighting every day just to keep us alive. When an unexpected job opportunity lands in my lap, I see it as an opening way out of poverty and struggle. Working as an executive assistant for Carson Clair, the almighty billionaire CEO of Sonclair Enterprises, isn't easy. He's rude, and unnecessarily leading over everyone in a bad manner, and I can tell you unapologetically that he's everything I despise in a man. But the paycheck is good, and I need it. Then, the unimaginable happens after a few months. Carson makes me an offer I can't refuse because it is such a juicy offer. It was a contract marriage. He needs a wife to secure a billion-dollar deal, and in exchange, he promises to clear my father's name, pay off my mother's medical bills, and set me up for life. It sounds like a dream... until I realize I'm falling for him. Just as I start to believe that maybe, just maybe, this arrangement could turn into something real, my world shatters again. I discovered a secret which was actually the truth and it changed everything. Carson isn't who I thought he was. And neither is the man I've been secretly confiding in... Fred Mark. One is lying. The other is using me. But the worst part? I don't know which one. And by the time I figure it out, it might already be too late.

Six years ago, I was a naive girl sold by my father to the powerful Sanders estate, only to be tossed onto the streets after a brutal assault they labeled "marital infidelity." I fled the country pregnant and broken, hiding from the shadow of a husband I had never even met. Now, I’ve returned to New York with my triplets to sign the final divorce papers and disappear forever. But Archibald Sanders—the man I was told was a crippled recluse—intercepted us with the cold precision of a predator. He didn't see the woman his family destroyed; he saw a gold-digger who had shamed his name. His security team hunted us to a grimy motel, using tactical force to snatch my children away and drag me to his glass-walled empire. In his office, he loomed over me, demanding a DNA test and threatening to throw me in prison while my babies were lost to the foster system. He was convinced I’d cheated, yet he stared at my sons with a haunting confusion, unable to ignore the stormy blue eyes that were a perfect mirror of his own. I stood there, paralyzed by his scent—the sharp tang of rain and expensive leather that triggered the icy dread of my worst nightmares. How could he accuse me of betrayal when he felt exactly like the monster who had shattered my life in that dark hotel room? "I'll sign anything," I sobbed, "just give me my kids." But the game changed when my five-year-old son hacked the tower’s security, holding the skyscraper hostage to save me. In the chaos, a fragile, silent boy—Archibald’s secret son—wandered into the room and reached for me as if I were his missing soul. Archibald’s face turned to stone as he tore up the agreement and locked the doors. "Until I find out why my son is looking at you like that," he growled, "you aren't going anywhere."

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.

Hayley was betrayed by those who should have loved her most. To save their precious adopted daughter from a punishment she deserved, her own parents sent Hayley straight into a living hell—an infamous prison where survival demanded cruelty, and weakness meant death. Four years later, the girl who had entered those iron gates no longer existed. She emerged with a single, unbreakable rule carved into her soul: Every betrayal would be repaid tenfold. The day she walked free, the world trembled. A convoy of luxury cars lined the road. A legion of loyal followers awaited her triumphant return. Her father tried to buy her silence with money. But money had long lost its power over her. Her adopted sister hid behind sweet words and false kindness. But empty smiles no longer fooled her. Everything that had once been stolen would be reclaimed—piece by piece. When her parents attempted to tie themselves to the city's most feared man by offering their adopted daughter, Hayley's lips curved into a cold smirk. "Not on my watch." Backed by a legendary hacker, shadowy allies, and an entire prison willing to burn the world for her, Hayley dismantled her enemies with terrifying precision. Then the tyrant noticed her. "You're interesting," he said. "Be my woman, and the city is yours." Hayley raised an eyebrow, unimpressed. "You want to own me? Survive me first." High society became their battlefield. Power collided with desire. Ambition clashed with obsession. In this ruthless game of dominance and temptation, only one would kneel first. The girl once abandoned in hell rose from its ashes, crowned by fire and vengeance—And in the end, even the most feared ruler in the city would bow, offering his empire to the woman who had conquered both hell… and him.

The heavy iron gates of the Wilderness Correction Camp groaned as they released me after three years of state-sponsored hell. I stood on the dirt road, clutching a plastic bag that held my entire life, waiting for the family that claimed they sent me there for "rehab." My brother, Brady, picked me up in a luxury SUV only to throw me out onto a deserted highway in the middle of a brewing storm. He told me I was a "public relations nightmare" and that the rain might finally wash the "stink" of the camp off me. He drove away, leaving me to limp miles through the mud on a snapped ankle. When I finally dragged myself to our family estate, my mother didn't offer a hug; she gasped in horror because my muddy clothes were ruining her Italian marble. They didn't give me my old room back. Instead, they banished me to a moldy gardener’s shack and hired a "babysitter" to make sure I didn't embarrass them further. My sister, Kaleigh, stood there in white cashmere, pretending to cry while clinging to her fiancé, Ambrose—the man who had once been mine. They all treated me like a volatile junkie, refusing to acknowledge that Kaleigh was the one who planted the drugs in my bag three years ago. They wanted to believe I was broken so they wouldn't have to feel guilty about the "wellness retreat" that was actually a torture chamber. I sat in the dark of that shed, feeling the cooling gel on the cigarette burns that covered my arms, and realized they had made a fatal mistake. They thought they had erased me, but I had returned with a roadmap of scars and a hidden satellite phone. At dinner, I didn't beg for their love. I simply rolled up my sleeves and showed them the price of their silence. As the wine spilled and the lies crumbled, I sent a single text to the only person I trusted: "I'm in. Let them simmer." The hunt was finally on.
