ARRDE

  "Sign these and let's get done with it," Myron flung the divorce papers to my face scowling. I stared hard at him in disbelief unsure of what hard crime I had committed to be treated brutally like this.

  "What do you mean, Myron? What papers?" I asked him, my voice trembling in panic at the reality that just faced me.

  "We are done, Arrde. I want you no more, so f***ing sign these and get out of my life! Get lost!" He bellowed rashly.

  I knew he wasn't joking... "Give me some time, I'll get it done." I pleaded.

  I've always known Alpha Myron to be an arrogant and ruthless man, but when he picked me to be his mate and marked me, the reality of it was more unreal to me.

  "Fine!" He said dragging his feet along as he slammed my room door behind him.

  I collapsed on my bed reminiscing on how everything went wrong because I've been a submissive mate to him and pledged my loyalty to the Purple Tide Pack from the day he marked me as his property.

  ****TWO YEARS AGO****

  "Arrde, it's time for the ball. You should be there, remember, the Alpha sent you a special invitation." My mom called out from the kitchen.

  "But mom!" I grumbled. I had no intentions of going to the ball because I didn't want to be mated to any of my kind and I didn't like how ruthless Alpha Myron was.

  "Shhhh, no buts..." My mom hushed me.

  "I don't want to have anything to do with Alpha Myron, he's ruthless and I'm not even up to his standard." I protested.

  "Do you want his aides to hear you?" My mom asked looking worried.

  "Aides?!" I asked almost screaming.

  "Yes..." My mom answered whispering, "They're outside, they've been waiting for you."

  " Tell them I'm sick, or find something more convincing to say." I pleaded.

  " I can't lie to them, I told them you were ready."

  " Mom! "

  " Alpha Myron, might turn out to not be your mate. Just go, you know it would be rude to stay away after receiving an invitation." my mom said. What she said was the truth, it could ruin my family.

  "Jeez!" I yelled.

  That's how I ended up at the mating ball. I didn't want to argue with my mom because Myron's aides were there already and it would've complicated things.

  I kept praying that Myron would not choose me as his mate, but things don't always work out the way we want them to and that's how I became Myron's mate. He never announced me as his Luna and never treated me like one but he was sweet to me anytime he was thirsty for my body.
