She is used to flying under the radar, but all of that changes when she discovers her fiancé's betrayal with her best friend. Suddenly, Leila becomes the target of cruel bullying and vicious attacks that almost cost her her life, until the pack's ruthless Alpha, Xander steps in to save her.
Will she find peace and solace with the Alpha or will her past comes lurking in the shadows?

Chapter 1

Leila POV

"Shit!...fuck!"

I paused, trying to remember who Damien's neighbors were. They were really going at it this hot afternoon. A blush spread on my face, they were really loud.

"Harder babe…there!... right there!!..."

Is Damien's walls also this thin? My blush spread, will people hear us when we do it?

I hurried, trying not to make much noise as I passed. Damien's house was separated from his neighbors' by a narrow path that acted as a shortcut from my house to his.

"I'm cumming!!"

Goddess…this was really embarrassing. If they hear my footsteps, they'll think I'm a pervert.

"Fuck!!"

That voice…I finally made it to the front of my fiance's house. I guess I'll have an interesting story to tell him.

Does he always hear them when they go at it?

Using my keys, I let myself into his house. I noticed the black pair of shoes that I got for Alessia, my best friend, on her birthday. I placed mine beside it after keeping it in a better position.

A small smile appeared on my face as I thought of her. Alessia and Damien were my favorite people in the world. We had been a group for so long. It didn't come as a shock to anyone when Damien and I announced our relationship.

But, I wasn't informed that Alessia would be here. I looked at the foodstuffs in my hand, we'll have to manage.

"That was so good…What's the occasion?" I heard Alessia say, her voice was low.

Did Damien already buy food?

"Don't tell me you already bought…" I trailed off as the scene I walked into sank in.

Alessia screamed and covered herself while Damien froze in shock.

I blinked, "...no…"

"Leila…" Alessia started, looking guilty.

"But…why?..." The bag of foodstuffs fell out of my trembling hand. Tears clouded my vision at an alarming rate.

Damien scrambled up and quickly wore a short.

"Leila…wait, let me explain."

"It was you…" a bitter laugh escaped from my lips, "...I was going…I was going to tell you about your wild neighbors…and it turned out that I am the topic of gossip…" The tears fell freely.

"... Leila please…" Alessia began.

"No…how could you??... I'm your best friend!!"

She flinched and hung her head.

"If…if you had feelings for each other…" my heart broke further, "...why…why didn't you say anything?!..."

"Leila calm down, please…we can talk about…" Damien started heading for me.

"No!!..." I stepped back, "... don't follow me or come near me…you make me sick!!"

I ran out, ignoring Damien's calls.

How long have they been doing it? From the beginning? Another laugh escaped as I remembered Damien and I promising to wait till the mating ceremony.

Of course he'll wait, he will wait for me while satisfying himself with my best friend.

How many people knew? His neighbors clearly knew, goddess knows how many people they have told.

I ran into my house and straight to my room, ignoring my family that was having lunch.

"Leila?!" Father called, I banged my room door in response, locking it behind me.

It was childish, but I needed space.

I sank to the floor, leaning on my door and allowed myself to cry properly.

How does one cheat after making commitments? Did he not respect me as a person? The least he could do as a friend, was to tell me he started having feelings for Alessia!!

My hurt began to morph into fury. I did everything right? I was good, understanding, kind and every fucking thing someone would want in a love partner.

And this is what I fucking get from it!!

The fury changed to bone deep sorrow and I started sobbing, ugly sobs left the back of my throat.

"Leila. Open the door" I heard dad say.

I covered my mouth, trying to muffle my sobs.

"Leila…open the door."

I don't want to…I want to wallow in self pity and heartbreak for a while before getting up and pretending for the world. But as usual, dad wasn't having it.

Hurriedly, I dried my eyes. Things would get ugly if I kept him waiting and I was in no mood to deal with more emotional stress.

I unlocked the door, pulled it open and stared at my father. The Beta of the pack.

He took in the tear stains on my face and my red eyes but he didn't comment which I appreciated. I moved from his way and he entered.

"What's wrong?"

I eyed him wearily. What does he want? He may be my closest relative but there was no love between us.

"I broke up with Damien."

"Why? I thought things were good between you two."

I smiled bitterly, "he loves Alessia's pussy more."

He raised his eyebrow and I flushed. What was I saying?

"Tell me what happened without the dramatics."

I sighed and looked around the room that I had grown up in. The room that I thought I would soon leave behind.

"I caught Damien cheating on me with Alessia…" I told him everything. Although we didn't have the best relationship, I was grateful that he came to talk to me. Talking about it made me calm down.

"I see…" he said once I was done, "... you can come in now."

I froze as Damien walked into my room. His head was bowed in shame.

"Dad?"

"He came to apologize. Hear him out and sort out the problem."

Huh??...

"Dad, I just told you what happened!!"

"And I heard you. Unfortunately, the mating ceremony can not and will not be cancelled."

My heartbeat increased…blood rushing in my ears.

"Why…"

"Leila…" Damien started.

"Shut the fuck up!!" I focused on my father. "I have endured every thing that your wife, daughter and even you that is supposed to be my father threw at me…" I glared and he clenched his jaw, "...so…so why do you want me to do this?...do you take pleasure in my suffering?" my voice was low but hoarse, all that crying was affecting it.

"I don't know why you're being dramatic…"

"Dramatic?" I cut him off, ignoring the anger in his eyes at my blatant disrespect, "you want me to spend my forever with a cheat and liar. I refuse and that's dramatic."

"My decision is final Leila" he said and started leaving.

Why? What did I do wrong?! My pain woke my wolf up.

"I'll kill him…" I whispered, stopping dad in his track.

“There are no limits between us,” he chuckled, the mirth sparkling in his gorgeous eyes. “And all of this stems from the night you gave me both pain and pleasure. I’m simply returning the favor.”

He took two steps forward, and I stepped back. “But…” The memory of what I had done filled me with fear, and I knew I had to get out of there. “I…”

"What?" It was out of my mouth before I could stop it. I did not wait for him to answer me, I walked toward him.
"Dance on my lap."
My head screamed at me to turn around and run. But my whole body responded to his command.
"Yes, Alpha," I pulled my dress over my body, it dropped over my head and fell to the ground behind me. I was left in nothing but my matching bra and thong. My hands covered my chest on reflex.
"Let me see."
My hands dropped to my sides.
I lowered myself into his lap, facing him. His eyes peered into mine, and I could feel his hot breath fan my face. His dick responded to all my moves, hardening against my now-moist vagina. I swallowed hard, allowing my lips to part in a ragged breath. His hands trailed up to my waist.

“Please…” I whispered.

“Please, what?”

I ran my wet tongue through my dry lips. Voice barely above a whisper. “Please… please... please make me… make me… make me your little bitch.”

The words tasted bitter and filthy on my tongue. I hated myself for saying them. Hated how my cock twitched when I did.

“I can’t hear you, Jones,” He said, voice hard, low and commanding. “Louder.”

I swallowed again, eyes stinging. “Please make me your little bitch.”

“A little louder.”

My cheeks burned. I forced the words out stronger this time. “Please make me your little bitch.”

He smirked, slow and satisfied. The look in his eyes made my stomach flip.

“Good boy,” He murmured. “Now listen carefully, Jones. If you agree to this, you’re mine. Completely. You don't look at other men. You don’t think about them. You don’t even dream about them. Everything about you; your mouth, your ass, your cock, your body… even your thoughts, belongs to me. All of it. I get to treat and use you however and whenever I want. Rough. Gentle. Mean. Filthy. You take it all. And you praise me for it. Understood?”

I hesitated, heart pounding so hard I thought it was going to explode. The last bit of resistance flickered. My mind was screaming no; to get up, run and never look back.

“Well?” He urged, thumb still holding my chin.

I closed my eyes for half a second, detesting every inch of my being. Then I nodded, voice small. “Yes.”

“Yes, what?”

“Yes… I understand.”

“Good.”

...

Shane Blackwood is his name.

And he's a monster.

He's toxic, cruel and psychotic beyond your wildest imagination.

I knew all this.

And yet, I signed that stupid agreement.

And now... he owns me.

Completely.

There's no escape.

"Ten years of atonement, and you flee?"

His fangs glinted as he gripped my chin, forcing me to meet his gaze. Dragon scales shimmered along his neck, breath scorching my skin.

"Your Majesty... I beg—" He shoved me onto the bed. Silk tore with a sharp rip, cold air rushing over my exposed body.

"Scared?" He smirked, palm sliding down my waist, fingers tracing slow, burning circles. "Yet you shiver... not from cold."

I lunged for the candlestick, but he caught my wrist, pinning it overhead. His knee forced my legs apart.

"When your father gave you to me," his lips brushed my ear, voice a dark rumble, "you were already mine."

On the eve of freedom after ten years of servitude, Lina Valeria stood one night away from reuniting with her betrothed. But Dragon King Augustus condemned her to the Abyss Mines on false charges—a trap forged from obsessive desire.

Augustus Ashenwing, Supreme Sovereign of Skyhold Citadel, is ruthless and feared by all races. His obsession stems from ancient grudges and dragonkind's most dangerous instinct: possessive desire. He demands her submission, binding her to his throne as his consort.

From prisoner to queen, Lina battles him through court intrigue and twisted passion—fighting for her mother, her freedom, her dignity.

Yet this cold-blooded tyrant reserves all tenderness for her alone. He indulges her temper, bends his pride, compromises without limit—anything to see her smile. Gradually, her heart wavers. But loving him means betraying Kain, who waited eleven years. Torn between duty and desire, she drowns in agonizing guilt.

Love and hatred intertwined—a forbidden dragon romance in a realm of oppression.

I shouldn’t care.
