The Mutt You Mocked Is an Alpha’s Daughter

The day I went into early labor, my mate took all the healers to his first love for her sprained ankle. Clutching my drooping belly, I fell to my knees and. begged Kane. Please get someone to help me or my family, they will burn this castle to ashes. A wolfless rogue daring to threaten me? I've spoiled you rotten, even faking labor now just to outdo Sarah. He tore free and walked away without a glance in despair. I used my last strength to release my wolf aura. Kane did not know my father was the Lichen King, my mother was the High Priestess, my brother was the priest. I met Kane at the moonlit temple, kneeling before the statue. I prayed for our warriors. While hiding my inner wolf, he thought I was a wolfless rogue. I was blind enough to think he was my fated mate. After we married, he sneered every time I mentioned my family. I never thought he would lock me in a filthy dungeon on the day I gave birth. "Martha, the pup is coming! Please get a healer. " Luna, all healers are with Lady Sarah. Her sister became a high priestess; her standing is far too high. Ridiculous! A high priestess still answered to my mother. Dark red ice formed on the floor. My legs went numb. I shook so hard my nails dug into the dirt. My signal was out, my family would see it and come for me. Last year, falling rock crushed your son's wolf leg, I saved him. I won't make it hard, just get me birthing herbs, I will deliver it myself, Luna. wait here, I will get it before my family arrives, my pup and I must stay alive. My father mastered skinning rogue wolves; he made bone necklaces for my mother. When my brother was ten, he gouged out a bully's eyes and broke his leg. Everyone feared me, everyone avoided me. Only Kane was different that day at the temple. He thought I was a pitiful outcast. He fell for me before the moon goddess. He swore to love me forever and never let anyone hurt me. My mother warned me, a hand on my head. Forever is a long time. Never trust a man's word.

Her sharp claws pierced flimsy dress, I will never let you bear Cain's pup. Blame your pup for being born into the wrong body Her face twisted with cruelty as she drove her claws down Suddenly, the night sky lit up entirely. It was the strongest Northern Pack signal, my family was finally coming. Joy briefly flooded my face, I struggled fiercely to dodge Sarah, but the agonizing pain pinned me in place, Kane's voice suddenly thundered at the door. What are you doing? Sarah flinched violently. Her claws morphed back into human fingers for one foolish second. I thought I was saved. Kane stared at my bleeding belly. A flash of pity crossed his eyes. Kane, you are finally here. I didn't blame Leoria for pushing me. I came because I was worried about her. But she tried to frame me. She even hurt her own pup just to drive me away. If I can't be your mate, I'd rather die. But I know Lyra is your Luna. She hates me so much. I don't want to burden you. Kane gently wiped away her fake tears. He pulled her into his embrace. He turned to look at me. His pity morphed into disgust and fury. Lyora, how could you be so vicious? You tried to kill your own pup? I was completely blind to marry you.

I never took my mother's warning to heart, I believed he was my one true mate, so I hid my inner wolf and married him anyway, a low born crimson alpha. Now I understood a man's heart could turn in an instant, the moment Sarah came home, his heart was no longer mine, she cried and accused me of jealousy, said I pushed her into the lake and almost drowning her. All it took were a few tears. Kane refused to listen. He threw his pregnant mate into the dungeon. The snow fell heavier, drifting through the window onto me. The stomach cramps grew more violent. The dungeon door creaked open. Martha rushed in. holding a steaming herbal brew. Luna, please don't say I gave this if the alpha knows I'm dead. I gave a weak nod. If I drank it, I could hold on longer. Martha bent to place the bowl before me. Someone kicked her back violently. Martha launched forward. The scalding brew splashed everywhere. It poured over my face, agony ripped through my body, scalding burns tangled with violent labor pain. You old bitch! Who let you help this slut? Mercy, Lady Sarah, I will never dare again. Martha knelt on the ground; she bared her neck in submission. Sarah strolled over slowly, her shoes stepped through the blood, then she stomped hard on my chest, leaning down she grabbed my hair, a wolfless piece of trash, you think you're fit to fight me for the lunar title? Sarah, stop or no one can save you.

Sarah laughed like it was the greatest joke. You, a piece of trash, dares to threaten me? She lifted her foot and brought it down hard on my right hand. A sickening crack echoed. My wrist shattered. I howled in absolute agony. Tears streamed down my face. Sarah slowly lifted her foot again. She aimed at my swollen belly. I froze, too terrified to. move. Sarah, you wouldn't dare! This is Kane's child; he'll kill you if you touch it. You really think he would believe you? He'll believe you did it yourself out of jealousy. He'll hate you even more for it. Sarah stood up and paced. He's busy preparing our mating ceremony. You don't even exist to him anymore. Her hand shifted into claws and traced across my cheek. Tell me, what if I slice you open right here... Martha suddenly lunged forward. She grabbed the hem of Sarah's dress. "Lady Sarah, I beg you, please spare Luna Liara. " "Get away from me! ". I tried to crawl toward Martha, but Sarah stomped on my torn dress, she raised her deadly claws. They hovered right above my belly, I, Sarah, would never share an alpha, especially with a wolfless bitch like you.
