Chapter 1 TAINTED NIGHT

LUCINDA's POV

The coldness of the night oozed into my thin fabric and blew my hair wildly around my face, my long and very thick hair blew into my mouth but I immediately spat it out, shivering before we even got to the mating ceremony, my step mother didn't allow me to take a sweater along as she was rushing me to get dressed.

Now, standing in front of my angry mate who had been ranting and yelling in my face for over an hour, I realised why she wanted me here.

I was beyond surprised when she agreed with me about going out tonight to find my mate. She didn't want happiness for me and I wondered why she didn't put up a fight or warn me not to leave the house.. , But standing in front of my mate trying to stay emotionless to his ranting, I suspect why.

"You are just a whore! A piece of rag! And a cheap prostitute!!... Do you ever think I will settle for a liar and foolish person like you... ? your step mother and sister already exposed you and I reject you this instant!" His cold voice reached my inner brain, I circled around to look at my gloating step sister.

"Alpha Eric... please ... at least listen to my side of the story, you can't conclude without an investigation... at least ... please..", I was begging hysterically, holding the leg left of my mate. At that moment my fear of losing the only person that I had hoped would save me filled my thinking.

I would Roll on the floor if I had to, I would worship him forever if he would just have me now. My wailing increased when I sighted my step sister from the corner of my swollen red eyes. She wrapped her hand around my mate's neck and he smiled back at her.

My step sister was grinning from ear to ear, they were having an affair even before he met me, and he had the guts to call me cheap and a cheater, because he needed something to send me off with, he chose to listen to whatever rumour he heard about me.

Rossy finally spoke out, smirking as she did, "My darling ... throw this dirty thing out. She doesn't deserve you!" Other pack members around us who had also attended the mating ceremony to find their mate, were staring at us and the look of pity on their faces towards me was annoying and repelling.

"I won't throw her out! She will stay here and work as an ordinary maid, I will make sure she suffers for sleeping with other men!...." With that said, he ordered for his guards and two of them rushed toward me, yanking me away from him.

"Please.... I'm not that type of person, my step mother and sister are lying against me... you can ask my friends about me" my eyes landed on my two friends, abigeal rushed after the guards with me, while Isabella stood still and frozen. Maybe the shock was too much for her.

Before I knew what was happening I was locked up in my mate's prison, my stepmother's victorious laughter kept ringing loud and heavy in my ears, the glare she sent my way while the guards dragged me out was an unforgettable & Stomach turning one, "I told you I would ruin you" type of glare.

I couldn't stop crying all through the night, my life is a shit hole but I didn't dream of ending up in a prison let alone of being placed there by my own mate, the one person I thought would save me?.

"Get ready to meet your mate ... it's tonight and I need you there very early!" My step mother's voice seeped into my thoughts again, now I realise why she was so concerned and impatient about me meeting my mate tonight. It's because she wanted to see me in pain.

"Ahaaa... my neck!" I cried out, rubbing my stiff and red neck, Alpha Eric had choked my neck, while screaming at me, he called me all sorts of degrading names, The thought of everything that happened spanned over in my head repeatedly, hot tears kept flowing from my already tired eyes, I hugged my trembling body to comfort myself.

"I miss you fa... father, This life is nothing without you... I want to die!" I muttered to myself, the loss of my father punching harder on my gut at that moment, The realisation that my father is no longer alive to cuddle me and tell me everything will be okay shook me more than my mate's rejection, the fact that I had no one on my side.

He even kissed my step sister in my presence, I would never be able to love any man after what I have been through tonight. The guards stationed in front of my prison gate snorted loudly at me before they resumed their mocking conversation.

"She's just so unlucky ... I would have married them both if I were in our Alpha's shoes ... This one is more beautiful with highlighted curves..." one of the guards was telling the other three who weren't there when the whole thing happened.

I swallowed my sobs with my nose and ignored them, they were the least of my problems right now, they can say any gibberish they want to, my worry right now is how my life will proceed, Especially now that I'm my step sister's servant.

The same step sister and mother who promised to make life a living hell for me?I wasn't really surprised about the stunt they pulled, Only shocked about how my mate agreed with them and took my sister as his Luna in my place!.

"You believe all their lies and deceit over what I want to say to you? Over my own story?" I had asked him but I was rewarded with a hot slap instead. remembering the sting from the slap, I tut my teeth together and reached for my red face. The ache from my face forced me to jerk my hand away.

Tonight is a bad dream and I hope to wake up from it. Had I known what was before me I would have ran fast into the bush to evade tonight, "a night that was supposed to be my night of joy ... why me!... Even abigeal found her mate tonight!". I complained to myself in anguish and sadness.

The next day I was given the maid cloth to wear and my step sister in her highly expensive designer bag, shoe and cloth couldn't stop mocking my condition. My mate got her a car too, he had started to spoil her with his money just to spite me.

"Why did I open my heart to love? ... I should have realised that I'm unfortunate and ill fated...!" I cried to abigeal, she had sneaked into the maid quarters to see me.

As expected, rossy; My step sister, had warned both of my friends to stay away from me or receive unforgettable punishment, yet Abigeal came without thinking twice.

She held my hands and allowed me to express myself, "Abi...Abiiigeal!.. These people have been after my happiness since I stepped my legs in my fathers' house, and now that he's dead ... ohooo... I'm in serious trouble! They will kill meeee!" I expressed my fears to abigeal.

Abigeal said nothing, she held me closer to her heaving chest and consoled me, I could feel her chest heaving rapidly by the seconds, she was almost ready to cry with me. I smiled at her In appreciation and held her tighter for comfort.

"You will not die ... Lucinda, don't talk like that.. I'm here, I will involve my parents if I have to? You cannot die here... we will find a solution, she assured me while raising her burrow for more emphasis.

But the solution didn't come soon. Who were abigail's parents in the presence of Alpha Eric? Of course they came for me, to rescue me, but he threw them out unceremoniously. My step mother and sister turned me into their punching bag.

All through my ordeal, I almost slit my hand one night but stopped once my fathers voice reached deep in my mind. On his deathbed he made me promise to fight for my life and happiness.

My mate joined my enemies in taunting me everyday , "you will die here in your maid quarters ... I won't let you go to another man and I will spite you with your step sister, I will destroy your life" he threatened me with a horrific growl while I served his dinner one night, sinking his hand into my waist and causing immense pain for me.

I winced and rushed away from his side, the deadly glare in his eye was enough to express his hatred towards me clearly.

His threats shook me to my bones, caught my step sister grinning wickedly at me, she was definitely enjoying every bit of my discomfort, I don't know what they told him that made him so bitter and furious toward me but I will definitely find out.

"My darling, an idea came to me right now and I think I know what we can do with this cheap slot!" My sister remark got my attention at once, unconsciously accelerating my heart beat due to the malicious desire in her voice.

The Billionaire's Cold And Bitter Betrayal

I had just survived a private jet crash, my body a map of violet bruises and my lungs still burning from the smoke. I woke up in a sterile hospital room, gasping for my husband's name, only to realize I was completely alone. While I was bleeding in a ditch, my husband, Adam, was on the news smiling at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. When I tracked him down at the hospital's VIP wing, I didn't find a grieving husband. I found him tenderly cradling his ex-girlfriend, Casie, in his arms, his face lit with a protective warmth he had never shown me as he carried her into the maternity ward. The betrayal went deeper than I could have imagined. Adam admitted the affair started on our third anniversary-the night he claimed he was stuck in London for a merger. Back at the manor, his mother had already filled our planned nursery with pink boutique bags for Casie's "little princess." When I demanded a divorce, Adam didn't flinch. He sneered that I was "gutter trash" from a foster home and that I'd be begging on the streets within a week. To trap me, he froze my bank accounts, cancelled my flight, and even called the police to report me for "theft" of company property. I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was a charity case he had plucked from obscurity to manage his life. To the Hortons, I was just a servant who happened to sleep in the master bedroom, a "resilient" woman meant to endure his abuse in silence while the whole world laughed at the joke that was my marriage. Adam thought stripping me of his money would make me crawl back to him. He was wrong. I walked into his executive suite during his biggest deal of the year and poured a mug of sludge over his original ten-million-dollar contracts. Then, right in front of his board and his mistress, I stripped off every designer thread he had ever paid for until I was standing in nothing but my own silk camisole. "You can keep the clothes, Adam. They're as hollow as you are." I grabbed my passport, turned my back on his billions, and walked out of that glass tower barefoot, bleeding, and finally free.

I watched my husband sign the papers that would end our marriage while he was busy texting the woman he actually loved. He didn't even glance at the header. He just scribbled the sharp, jagged signature that had signed death warrants for half of New York, tossed the file onto the passenger seat, and tapped his screen again. "Done," he said, his voice devoid of emotion. That was Dante Moretti. The Underboss. A man who could smell a lie from a mile away but couldn't see that his wife had just handed him an annulment decree disguised beneath a stack of mundane logistics reports. For three years, I scrubbed his blood out of his shirts. I saved his family's alliance when his ex, Sofia, ran off with a civilian. In return, he treated me like furniture. He left me in the rain to save Sofia from a broken nail. He left me alone on my birthday to drink champagne on a yacht with her. He even handed me a glass of whiskey—her favorite drink—forgetting that I despised the taste. I was merely a placeholder. A ghost in my own home. So, I stopped waiting. I burned our wedding portrait in the fireplace, left my platinum ring in the ashes, and boarded a one-way flight to San Francisco. I thought I was finally free. I thought I had escaped the cage. But I underestimated Dante. When he finally opened that file weeks later and realized he had signed away his wife without looking, the Reaper didn't accept defeat. He burned down the world to find me, obsessed with reclaiming the woman he had already thrown away.

Nicole had entered marriage with Walter, a man who never returned her feelings, bound to him through an arrangement made by their families rather than by choice. Even so, she had held onto the quiet belief that time might soften his heart and that one day he would learn to love her. However, that day never came. Instead, he treated her with constant contempt, tearing her down with cruel words and dismissing her as fat and manipulative whenever it suited him. After two years of a cold and distant marriage, Walter demanded a divorce, delivering his decision in the most degrading manner he could manage. Stripped of her dignity and exhausted by the humiliation, Nicole agreed to her friend Brenda's plan to make him see what he had lost. The idea was simple but daring. She would use another man to prove that the woman Walter had mocked and insulted could still be desired by someone else. All they had to do was hire a gigolo. Patrick had endured one romantic disappointment after another. Every woman he had been involved with had been drawn not to him, but to his wealth. As one of the heirs to a powerful and influential family, he had long accepted that this pattern was almost unavoidable. What Patrick wanted was far more difficult to find. He longed to fall in love with a woman who cared for him as a person, not for the name he carried or the fortune attached to it. One night, while he was at a bar, an attractive stranger approached him. Because of his appearance and composed demeanor, she mistook him for a gigolo. She made an unconventional proposal, one that immediately caught his interest and proved impossible for him to refuse.
