In Between The Ruthless Alphas Chapter 1 No.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."

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.

I went to the New York City Clerk's office to handle a simple administrative matter, but the woman behind the glass handed me a nightmare instead. It was a certified marriage license from Clark County, Nevada, filed exactly three months ago. My vision blurred as I read the name in the spouse field: Baxter Noel. I was legally married to the ruthless billionaire whose legal team was currently suing me for intellectual property theft and trying to destroy my career. I remembered the conference in Las Vegas and a drink that tasted far too sweet, followed by a twelve-hour black hole in my memory that I had chalked up to exhaustion. When I sought help at my family's estate, my stepmother and sister didn't offer comfort; they stole my passport, shredded my clothes, and framed me for academic plagiarism to strip away my university fellowship. Even Baxter himself looked me in the eye with cold indifference, claiming he didn't know me and promising to have me arrested for fraud if I ever showed him that document again. Within twenty-four hours, I was homeless, jobless, and being hunted by the most powerful man in the city. I couldn't understand why a man who "eats people for breakfast" would be caught in the same trap as a struggling scientist like me. The confusion turned to pure terror when I looked at the witness signature on the license: Gene Mcclain. My mother, who was supposed to have died in a car crash ten years ago, had signed that paper with a fresh, trembling hand only ninety days ago. "I am holding a grenade, and I have no idea when the pin was pulled." Standing in the biting November wind with nothing but a laptop and a marriage license, I realized I was just a pawn in a much deadlier game. I stopped running and began to fight back, determined to use my unwanted status as the billionaire's wife to uncover the truth about the mother who came back from the dead.

REGINA MCBRIDE

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.
