Introduction

„Du spielst besser gehorsam das verliebte Paar mit mir, oder ich verspreche dir, dass du kein leichtes Leben haben wirst.“ Er drückte mein Handgelenk so fest, dass ich fast vor Schmerz aufschrie, aber er bedeckte schnell meinen Mund mit seiner anderen Hand.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Leoni, die Tochter des Alphas und die Schwächste im Rudel, wurde von ihrer Familie vernachlässigt und in eine Ehe gezwungen.

Nachdem Leoni von ihrem Gefährten heftig als sein Eigentum deklariert wurde, geriet sie schnell in einen Teufelskreis aus Lügen, Folter und Missbrauch, ohne einen Ausweg.

Nachdem sie ihren Gefährten zum ersten Mal kennengelernt hatte, entdeckte Leoni bald, dass die gesamte Begegnung eine Lüge war... aber warum glaubte ihr niemand?

Leoni wusste, dass ihr neuer Gefährte böse Absichten hatte, als sie eifrig die Wahrheit hinter seinen Lügen aufdecken wollte. Nachdem ihr eigener Vater von der Zukunft des Rudels getrieben wurde, war sie sich bald nicht mehr sicher, was sie als Nächstes tun sollte.

Nach einem langen und schmerzhaften Tag des Missbrauchs zeigte einer von Leonis verbannten Freunden ihr einen Hoffnungsschimmer.

Adam schwor, seine Freunde zu retten, bevor die arrangierte Ehe zu Ende geht... Wird Adam es schaffen, seine Freundin zu retten? Wer ist Leonis wahrer Gefährte?

Chapter 1

Leonis Perspektive

"Ja, James! Ich weiß, dass sie schwach ist..." schnauzte mein Vater seinen Beta an, bevor er fortfuhr:

"Ich bin nicht mehr so stark wie früher und ich nähere mich dem Alter von 45 Jahren. Niemand bei klarem Verstand würde versuchen, das zweitstärkste Rudel im Land mit 45 Jahren zu führen!" Mein Vater klingt verärgert.

Sie bemerkten nicht, dass ich draußen vor dem Büro stand und zuhörte. Ich bin das schwache Mädchen, von dem sie sprachen. Der einzige Misserfolg im Leben meines Vaters war seine Tochter, also ich. In vier Tagen werde ich 18, aber James hatte recht, ich bin zu schwach, um das Rudel allein zu führen. Mein Vater geht in den Ruhestand, er hat keinen qualifizierten Erben mit starkem Körper und mutigem Herzen. Nur mich.

"Es tut mir leid, Dena, mein Alpha. Es ist alles meine Schuld, aber ich wurde so geboren, ich habe keine Wahl. So auch Leoni." murmelt meine Mutter.

Was meint Mama damit, dass sie so geboren wurde? Ich bin die Tochter des Alphas und der Luna. Mein Blut sollte stark sein.

"Es hilft jetzt nicht, darüber zu reden, wessen Schuld das ist!" schreit mein Vater meine Mutter an, wie üblich.

"Ich bin noch nicht im Ruhestand, aber ich spüre, dass ich die Kontrolle über das Rudel verliere. Du hast mir nur eine Tochter geboren. Es gibt keine Möglichkeit, die Kontrolle über das Rudel ohne einen starken Erben zu behalten. Du bist gerade 47 geworden, was noch nutzloser ist. Du lässt mir keine Wahl!"

Mein Vater will, dass der Herrscher seines Rudels sein eigenes Fleisch und Blut ist und nun, ich bin sein einziges Kind und daher seine einzige Wahl.

Das Problem ist jedoch, dass ich zu schüchtern, naiv und ruhig bin - genau wie meine Mutter. Ich bin immer so vorsichtig und behutsam mit allem, was ich tue. Meine Eltern haben mich nicht dazu erzogen, vor allem Angst zu haben, aber sie haben mich auch nicht gezwungen, mich durchs Leben zu kämpfen.

Ich war schon immer die Schwächste im Rudel, seit ich ein Kind war. Egal wie hart ich meine Jagdfähigkeiten übe, ich werde nie mit meinen Altersgenossen mithalten können. Egal wie hart ich trainiere, mein Körper baut keine Muskeln auf. Ich kann nicht einmal einen Hasen allein jagen. Ich werde immer die Schwächste im RUDL sein.

"Wir haben sie immer vor jeder Art von Gefahr abgeschirmt und sie ihr ganzes Leben lang im Schatten gehalten...was ich jetzt bereue...Sie braucht einen starken Gefährten, der sie durchführt, mit einem starken Gefährten kann sie dieses Rudel wie die Luna regieren, als die sie geboren wurde!" sagt mein Vater.

"Aber... Was, wenn sie ihren Gefährten nicht findet?" fragt meine Mutter. Hoffentlich, wenn ich meinen Gefährten nicht finde, lässt mich mein Vater einfach mit ihnen gehen.

"Dann werde ich sie mit meinem stärksten Krieger verheiraten..." stößt mein Vater hastig heraus.

"Was? Nein, das kannst du nicht! Was, wenn sie ihn nicht liebt?!" sagt meine Mutter traurig.

"Ich will nicht, dass du sie einfach irgendjemandem verheiratest...bitte...bitte", sagte meine Mutter fast flehend. "Armes Ding... Ich hoffe, sie findet ihren Gefährten, um ihretwillen..."

Es herrschte eine Weile Stille im Raum. Eine Welle der Angst begann in mir aufzusteigen. Ich bin schüchtern und schwach; ich habe keine Freunde außer Willow. Sie ist meine beste und einzige Freundin und die Tochter des zweiten Kommandanten (James). James kümmert sich immer um mich wie ein Vater.

Bei Willow war ich nicht so schüchtern wie bei allen anderen, obwohl ich im Vergleich zu durchschnittlichen Menschen immer noch ziemlich schüchtern war. Ich habe ihnen gesagt, dass ich das Rudel nicht führen will und hoffe, dass sie für mich sprechen könnten. Willow konnte nichts dagegen tun. Sie hat vor ein paar Tagen ihren Gefährten getroffen, einen netten, aufrichtigen, liebevollen Gefährten! Ich freue mich so für sie! Deshalb kann sie meine Sorgen, keinen Gefährten zu finden, nicht verstehen.

Ich kann meine Meinung nicht äußern oder für mich selbst einstehen. Genau wie jetzt, stehe ich draußen vor dem Büro und höre meinen Eltern zu, wie sie über mich reden... also wie soll ich in der Lage sein, dieses Rudel zu kontrollieren?

Ich war extrem genervt von all diesem Gerede über Gefährten. Das Rudel unter meiner eigenen Führung wird zweifellos in den Niedergang führen, aber es ist mein Schicksal, eine Luna zu sein.

Ziemlich mies, oder?

Ich habe keinen Ort, an den ich fliehen kann, mein zukünftiges Leben, das zukünftige Leben meines Rudels wird davon abhängen, einen starken Gefährten zu haben.

Wie erbärmlich ich bin.

"Versprich mir, dass du sie nicht einfach irgendjemandem verheiratest", beharrte meine Mutter erneut. Mutter hat noch nie so ernst mit Vater gesprochen. Ich kann sehen, dass sie sich große Sorgen um mich macht.

"Du hast mein Wort, dass ich sicherstellen werde, dass es jemand ist, dem ich vertraue... sie wird ihren Gefährten finden." Vaters Ton war noch nie so ruhig und unnatürlich. "Tina, sprich nie wieder in diesem Ton mit mir."

Verliert Vater den Verstand? Mich jemandem verheiraten, dem er vertraut?

Was bin ich für ihn? Eine Handelsware? Ein Werkzeug zur Festigung seiner Macht? Hat er vergessen, dass ich seine einzige Tochter bin? Interessieren ihn meine Gefühle überhaupt nicht?!

Vater könnte mich genauso gut auf einem Markt wie ein Stück Fleisch verkaufen, anstatt die Zeit zu verschwenden, alle Männer um mich kämpfen zu lassen... es wäre viel weniger Aufwand. Aber ich könnte niemals Nein zu Vater sagen.

Ich würde meinem Vater gerne sagen, was ich wirklich über meine Heirat denke... Ich würde ihm gerne sagen, wie dumm er sich verhält... Ich würde es ihm gerne sagen... aber ich werde es nicht tun. Er könnte mich mit einem wohlhabenden älteren Mann verheiraten. Er ist in der Lage, alles zu tun, was er will. Niemand wagt es, meinem Vater im Rudel zu widersprechen, nicht einmal meine Mutter.

“I thought we discussed this earlier, Weakness? I warned you. His death is on your hands.”
“I thought you said you were done chasing me?” Gen mocked.
“I am done chasing you.”
Before she could formulate a witty remark, Matteo threw her down. She landed hard on her back atop his dining room table. She tried to sit up when she noticed what he was doing. His hands were working on his belt. It came free of his pants with a violent yank. She collapsed back on her elbows, her mouth gaping open at the display. His face was a mask of sheer determination, his eyes were a dark gold swimming with heat and desire. His hands wrapped around her thighs and pulled her to the edge of the table. He glided his fingers up her thighs and hooked several around the inside of her panties. His knuckles brushed her dripping sex.
“You’re soaking wet, Genevieve. Tell me, was it me that made you this way or him?” his voice told her to be careful with her answer. His knuckles slid down through her folds and she threw her head back as she moaned. “Weakness?”
“You…” she breathed.


Genevieve loses a bet she can’t afford to pay. In a compromise, she agrees to convince any man her opponent chooses to go home with her that night. What she doesn’t realize when her sister’s friend points out the brooding man sitting alone at the bar, is that man won’t be okay with just one night with her. No, Matteo Accardi, Don of one of the largest gangs in New York City doesn’t do one night stands. Not with her anyway.

One Night. One Mistake. One Lifetime of Consequences.

I thought I was waiting for love. Instead, I got fucked by a beast.

My world was supposed to bloom at the Moonshade Bay Full Moon Festival—champagne buzzing in my veins, a hotel room booked for Jason and me to finally cross that line after two years. I’d slipped into lacy lingerie, left the door unlocked, and lay on the bed, heart pounding with nervous excitement.

But the man who climbed into my bed wasn’t Jason.

In the pitch-black room, drowned in a heady, spicy scent that made my head spin, I felt hands—urgent, scorching—searing my skin. His thick, pulsing cock pressed against my dripping cunt, and before I could gasp, he thrust hard, tearing through my innocence with ruthless force. Pain burned, my walls clenching as I clawed at his iron shoulders, stifling sobs. Wet, slick sounds echoed with every brutal stroke, his body unrelenting until he shuddered, spilling hot and deep inside me.

"That was amazing, Jason," I managed to say.

"Who the fuck is Jason?"

My blood turned to ice. Light slashed across his face—Brad Rayne, Alpha of Moonshade Pack, a werewolf, not my boyfriend. Horror choked me as I realized what I’d done.

I ran away for my life!

But weeks later, I woke up pregnant with his heir!

They say my heterochromatic eyes mark me as a rare true mate. But I’m no wolf. I’m just Elle, a nobody from the human district, now trapped in Brad's world.

Brad’s cold gaze pins me: “You carry my blood. You’re mine.”

There is no other choice for me but to chose this cage. My body also betrays me, craving the beast who ruined me.
