The Alpha’s Obsession with his Ex-Contract Luna by Glorious Eagle novel Chapter 1

Chapter 1: Just Three Days

Sheila’s heart skipped a beat when she heard the sound of the Rolls Royce pulling into the car park of the packhouse.

The Dark Moon Pack had one of the most luxurious pack houses, requiring the services of omegas all the time. The Alpha had been away on an important journey and no one knew how long it was going to take.

His sudden arrival caused the omegas to hasten about their duties as if walking on eggshells as Sheila spoke to her most trusted friend with a heavy heart.

“You have to go. Alpha Nick is back. Please use the back door so he doesn’t see you. He is quite sensitive so don’t let him catch your scent.”

Seated on the curvy kitchen stool, her most trusted friend, Goldie, felt an inexplicable pain in her chest. “Why should you be afraid of your husband? You even call him by his title.”

Sneaking in and out to see her best friend as if she were some kind of ex-convict. This was too much for her to take, and she was tired of it.

“Sherry, you have suffered for too long. If things continue like this, I will drop a hint of your whereabouts to the Alpha King.”

Sheila froze with a start at the mention of her papa. He was the most powerful Alpha that ever lived, ruling the south, east, north, and western America. Even her seven brothers were still struggling to match his strength and capability.

Moreover, nobody could take the Kingship title until he gave up the ghost. All this while, Sheila had lived away, keeping her marriage from him after being disowned because she wanted nothing to do with the pack business.

Giving up everything just to be by the side of the only man she ever loved, her father would still send his strongest warriors after her if he found out about how she lived like a soulless creature.

Sheila was always full of life. Though having schooled in the human world, she also practiced martial arts secretly.

She studied fashion design and ethical hacking but after just six months of marriage, she became like an old housewife, losing her sense of fashion and making herself a doormat for her husband’s pack and family.

“No, please don’t. Things will soon change, and I will let Papa know about it. Nick will love me. He just needs time.” She ensured not to address him by his title this time around, though her tone was loaded with sorrow, as if afraid.

She knew that her father would take her back at any time, but he just wouldn’t approve of her marriage to a man who never valued her.

“I hope so,” Goldie said dismissively before rising from the kitchen stool she sat on. Sheila opened the door to the back for her.

“Quick. Please don’t let his warriors see you.”

Goldie was unhappy but obeyed. It was easy escaping the warriors because they were infatuated with her.

Most of them thought she was a friend of one of the omegas.

As soon as she left through the open back door, an elegant man walked in through the front door, and Sheila rushed to meet him in the living room, ensuring to maintain a good distance between them.

His aura was intimidating, his movements graceful like the sunrise, as he ogled at her with cold eyes. “Sheila, we need to talk.”

As usual, there was no emotion in his voice. It carried the chill of the winter breeze.

Sheila panicked, as she already heard rumors among the omegas that his mate had returned. Most probably, it was the reason for his recent impromptu travel.

One of the warriors hurled his luggage up the stairs.

“Alpha Nick, you just came back from a long journey. Please eat first, or your food will get cold.” Sheila dared not address him without a title like she casually did to please Goldie in his absence.

Trying to avoid the conversation, which she guessed would not be good, she quickly turned around to go get the food, but his cold and yet mellow voice caused her foot to halt.

“This is more important. Sit and let’s talk.” Sheila obeyed like a frightened deer. She has always been obedient to him, so he would care about her, but that hadn’t worked so far.

Alpha Nick dropped his briefcase on the center table, and Sheila dared not touch it. Throughout their marriage, they lived in separate rooms, and he treated her like a stranger. He was completely oblivious to her dedication to the pack.

To him, she was just there at the time of convenience while he waited for his mate.

“You have to understand that I have tried. It’s been six months, but I still don’t feel anything for you. Our contract ends today. I haven’t mated with you, and I haven’t marked you. I hope that you find your fated mate one day.”

He barely looked at her when he spoke. He never put in the effort to make it work and yet claimed he tried. Sheridan’s heart stopped; her eyes turned teary. She had been in love with Alpha Nick all her life, but he had no idea.

Six months ago, he was getting married to his mate, Charlotte. Having schooled in the human world with Sheila, she requested a wedding, which Alpha Nick agreed to but she disappeared on the day of the event.

Sheila, who was seeking vengeance on Charlotte because of how the latter had laced her drink with scorpion venom, took advantage and proposed to marry him to save him from the shame.

Alpha Nick was very cold-hearted, and the strongest in North America. Having invited all the Alphas from across America, he could not allow himself to be ridiculed.
