In between the Alpha's Chapter 1 1

CHARLOTTE'S P.O.V

"Father," Liana said and he briefly glanced at her, "There was an argument in town today and I was able to calmly resolve it and there were no casualties at all."

Liana is everyone's definition of perfect with her high cheekbones and thin lips, perfectly slim body and of average height at 5'4 compared to my towering 5'9. Her slicked jet black hair stopped right above her shoulders and her eyes were a vile shade of green; almost like poison.

"At least you won't be a totally useless Luna in future." He said with a glance at Carmen and I saw her face fall.

I felt my heart clench in pity for Liana. She has tried so hard to get my father's attention but he completely disregards her and as if she read my mind her eyes snapped up to mine and narrowed.

"Father did you know that Charlie is a bit fond of paint?" she asked with a snarl and my eyes widened.

"For the last time you will not call her by that ridiculous boy name," he growled, "It is Charlotte."

"Yes father." Liana said softly.

"Now what were you saying about paint?"

"Liana has taken a little liking to blue paint," she began and I begged her with my eyes not to spill, "She even has some in her room."

I am so upset that Liana would even think about telling father about the innocent paint splatter that's on my wall. Well then, two can play at that game.

I saw dad open his mouth to ask so I spoke before he could, "How's Frederick Lia?" her mouth tightened into a flat line, "Did you talk to him today?"

Frederick is Liana's secret boyfriend. Father would flip if he knew she had a boyfriend; much less if he knew that Frederick is human.

"Who the hell is Frederick?" you could practically see the steam coming out of father's ears as he whirled on Liana but she stayed quiet. "I asked you a question."

He slammed his hand on the table so hard that his wine spilled all over Carmen making her jump.

"Who is Frederick Liana?" he asked and I saw her swallow deeply. I went too far; I have to fix this.

"Frederick is just her imaginary boyfriend father," I said and I saw him turn to me, "She likes to imagine what her future would be like and she just used the name Frederick."

He sat back in his chair and Carmen handed him another glass of wine.

"Dreaming about men," he spat, "That shows how unfit you are to be Alpha."

Liana shot me a hard look but I rolled my eyes at her. She should be thankful that I just saved her from a week's worth of whipping.

The rest of dinner went by quietly, no one dared to even breathe too loud. As soon as we finished Liana and I jumped to our feet and started clearing the table.

"After you're done with the dishes I want everyone in my office," father said, "I have something important to discuss."

"Yes father," we said in unison and proceeded to clear the dishes.

When we got into the kitchen Liana grabbed my arm, "Never do something like that again."

"Do what save your ass?" I asked and she rolled her eyes.

"My ass wouldn't need saving if it wasn't for you."

"You were the one who brought up the paint issue," I scoffed, "Now you're blaming me? You caused this Lia, not me."

"You were over there looking so smug while father spoke to me like an imbecile."

"How was I looking smug?"

"You know all your life that you have been destined to die in the shadows." She spat, "I was destined for greatness and it's all being taken away from me and you couldn't be happier."

"You know what? Fuck you Lia," I spat as I rinsed off the last of the dishes, "I will not sit here and let you blame me for something that was obviously your fault. You started it and all I did was finish it."

I made to leave but she grabbed my arm, "Even if I started it, couldn't you be a good sister and just take it?"

"Excuse me?"

"Couldn't you just take the fall for the paint?" she asked.

"You mean the one that you did deliberately?" I asked and she just huffed.

"Why can't you ever just act like my sister?"

"You like to remind me that you're older," I said jerking my hand out of her grip, "So start acting like it then I'll start acting like your sister."

I left her in the kitchen and made my way over to father's study. I could hear her footsteps behind me but she made no move to bridge the gap or speak so I ignored her. I stopped at the door and knocked on it softly. When I heard father's gruff voice I made my way inside.

Lia shut the door behind us and we sat on the couch next to Carmen who was keeping a perfectly stoic expression on her face but when she looked at me I saw the anger and hostility. What did I do?

"Now I'm sure you're all aware that we have a small party that we are hosting for a few Alphas," he began.

I'm sure we're all thinking the same thing; we don't know about any party because he doesn't tell us about work but no one dared to say it out loud.

"A few Alphas are coming in; Alpha Logan is among them and so is Alpha Hunter."

I gasped in my head as he said Alpha Logan. It is so hard to get to him because his pack is so far away and he generally keeps to himself. He has the largest pack in the world and is rumored to be a psychopath. Some people say that his face is as disfigured as his mind.

"The party will also serve another purpose," father said bringing my attention back to him, "We managed to secure an alliance with Alpha Hunter." He said, "He will give us the piece of his land by the stream for a meager token."

"That is amazing love," Carmen said but he frowned at her.

"I didn't say you could speak," she went quiet, "But since you already started you may as well finish." She remained quiet, "Does anyone have anything to say?"

"What did you give him?" I heard Liana ask in a small voice, "In exchange for the land?"

"I'm glad you asked Liana," he said and I saw that greedy smile take over his face. The same smile I've seen a million times over and I have come to associate with bad news.

I muttered a silent prayer for Liana under my breath. She will hate whatever news father has for her.

"At first I wanted to give him you," he began, "You are my first child and it is my duty to make sure that you become successful and powerful." I saw Lia gulp, "But he didn't want you."

I saw relief flash across her face and if I did then so did father. Before I could blink a huge book hit the side of her head and the metallic scent of blood filled my nose.

"Don't look relieved," he spat, "If you don't mate well then you will remain nothing, just like you are now."

She gulped but held her hand to the side of her head that was bleeding and said nothing.

"As I was saying," he continued as if nothing happened, "I wanted to give him you but he refused and opted for something different."

Father turned to me and I knew what he was going to say before he even said it but I couldn't help myself. I prayed I was imagining it.

"He wants to marry Charlotte instead."

For seven years, I drank the bitter tonic my fiancé, Alpha Adrian, gave me, believing it would cure my "wolfless" defect. I was wrong. It was poison. He wasn't trying to heal me; he was keeping me weak so he could replace me with my foster sister, Ariel. When the fire consumed the Alpha's Wing, I was trapped under a burning beam, my legs crushed. Adrian kicked down the door. I reached out to him, screaming for help. But he didn't look at me. He looked at Ariel, who was lying on the floor in a silk nightgown. He scooped her up, cradling her like she was the only thing that mattered. I begged him not to leave me. Instead of helping, he used his Alpha Command on me, his voice booming with supernatural weight. "Stay put! I'll be back for you!" It was a lie. He used his power to freeze me in the inferno and left me to burn alive. I survived, only to watch him publicly reject me for her the next day, with my own father's blessing. They called me a "genetic dead end." They thought I would crawl away and die in shame. I didn't. I limped up the mountain to the Neutral Lands to find the one man everyone fears-the exiled Alpha, Garth Morgan. "I have the Gamma Bloodline Scroll," I told the massive figure emerging from the shadows. "I don't want your gratitude," Garth growled, his eyes like storm clouds. "I'm not here for gratitude," I replied, staring him down. "I'm here to make a deal with the devil."

Secret Triplets: The Billionaire's Second Chance

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

The Discarded Heiress: Marrying My Lethal Husband

The rain in Detroit was slick with grime when my family finally came to fetch me. They didn't want a reunion; they wanted a sacrificial lamb to marry into the Kaufman empire to save their failing business. I thought I was just being sold off, but the limo ride ended under a dark overpass where six hired thugs were waiting with chains. My own sister had ordered them to "break my spirit" so I’d be a shaking, pathetic mess by the time I reached the altar. They called me "Detroit trash" and sprayed air freshener when I sat on their leather seats. My stepmother wanted a video of me begging for my life, and my father was ready to trade me like a used car to a man everyone called a "vegetable." They expected a submissive country girl, unaware that I was a high-level "cleaner" who could snap a radius bone before they could even scream. When I finally reached the Kaufman estate, I found my fiancé, Barron, slumped in a wheelchair, drooling and silent. But as soon as the doors closed, the "invalid" grabbed my wrist with a grip of iron and whispered a command that changed everything. I didn't understand why my own blood was so desperate to see me destroyed. What had I ever done to deserve a hit squad and a forced marriage to a man they thought was a corpse? But Barron isn't a vegetable, and I'm not a victim. We just touched down at the Moon family gala in a matte-black helicopter, and as the doors slide open, the "broken" bride is about to show them exactly what happens when you throw away the wrong daughter. "If we're going to crash a party," Barron whispered, his eyes burning with lethal clarity, "we should make an entrance."
