The Mate He Hates

Amanda’s POV

I was covered in a veil and was being escorted by two ladies whom I had no idea who they were. As I walked down the stairs, tears fell freely on my cheek, and I didn’t bother to wipe them off. Soon, I would be getting married to Alpha Edward, and heaven knows what would be my fate and why he would want to marry me.

I knew his decision to get us married meant he had a plan, and I wondered what it was and what he would do to me. Slowly, I was accompanied by the women, and then we arrived at the sitting room, where I noticed a few guests were seated. The veil was transparent, allowing me to see smiles on the faces of the few guests. They hadn’t gotten the news of Elisa’s death, and they thought she was the one being escorted.

The two ladies led me to where Alpha Edward was seated and then helped me to the seat beside him. With panting breath, I looked his way and noticed he had a blank look on his face, which would make it hard for anyone to detect his mood. “Let’s begin,” he said to the priest, and my body shook with fear.

The priest came forward and began performing the marriage rite. More tears fell on my cheek as I listened to the marriage rite, and then he brought rings for exchanging rings. Alpha Edward was the first to put the ring on my finger, and after that, it was my turn. With shaky hands, I put the ring on his finger, and a loud clap erupted from the crowd. There were great cheers and laughter, but suddenly, Alpha Edward got up and pulled the veil away, revealing my identity to everyone. Loud gasps left the lips of everyone as they all realized it was me and not my sister Elisa.

“Elisa is dead,” Alpha Edward announced, and everyone gasped. “She killed her…” he pointed an accusing finger at me, and I shook my head. “She killed her,” he accused me, and I shook my head as tears fell freely on my cheeks. “You!” He yelled and gripped both of my arms. “You will pay for what you did; you will wish for death, but I, your husband, will make sure death is far from you.” He muttered those words as a promise while his anger-burning eyes glared at me.

“Take her back to the pack,” he said, and two men took hold of me. “No, please, No,” I yelled with tears, “Please, I am innocent. I didn’t do it.” I pleaded, but no one came to my aid; rather, they all looked at me with hate and disgust.

I was being dragged by the two men out of the sitting room while everyone stood and watched. The men dragged me away and then to a car. Upon reaching the car, they opened the door and forced me in while the two men sat beside me. “Please, I didn’t do it,” I pleaded with them, but they paid deaf ears to me and asked the driver to move. The car moved, and I felt like screaming, shouting, or asking for help, but then I realized I was silent; I couldn’t say a word, but rather, I just sobbed silently.

I thought of my life and the words of Alpha Edward. His words weren’t just threats, but they seemed like promises he would fulfil. I wondered what he was going to do to me; I feared that he was going to kill me or do something worse to me. Throughout the journey, I kept crying, but I would pinch myself, hoping everything was a dream and that I would wake up from it. But I was wrong; nothing was a dream, but they were all reality.

After a few minutes drive, the car stopped in front of a big black gate and honked at the gate. Soon, the gate opened, and the car drove in. Curious about where I was, I looked outside through the window and realized we were in a mansion. The men pulled me out of the car, and when I came out, I saw different men guiding each corner of the house.

“Move,” the men dragged me along with them, and I couldn’t struggle, neither could I say a word. I was being dragged into the mansion, where I saw servants staring at me with confusion in their eyes, but none dared to stop the men or ask them where they were taking me. They pulled me up the stairs, and we got to a door, which they opened and took me in. Entering the room, I realized the room was empty; there was practically nothing in the room.

“You will stay here until Alpha Edward comes back,” one of the men said and turned to leave, while the other followed him out. I did not bother to beg or go after them; I was already exhausted, so I just fell to the cold ground and began to sob. As I sobbed, my whole body shook with pain. I was in so much pain; first, I lost my wolf, and then I was accused of killing my sister, and now I’m married to a mate who hates me, and heaven knows what he was going to do to me.

I wished I had my wolf; maybe she could have comforted me and told me what to do, but unfortunately, she was no more, and I was left all alone in this.

As more tears fell on my cheeks, I thought of Elisa and her sudden death. I wondered who would have killed her in such a brutal manner, and how did the person get into her room with no one noticing.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

I cried to God for hours until no tears were left in my eyes. I was exhausted and hadn’t had anything throughout the day. Suddenly, I heard a click on the door, and then I quickly sat up. The door opened, and two men walked in. Without saying a word to me, they held my arms and pulled me up on my feet.

“Where are you taking me?” I asked in fear and panic, but they didn’t respond; rather, they kept dragging me along. My whole body shook with fear at the thought of where they were taking me and what they would do to me. So many scary thoughts filled my head, and the thought scared me. We reached a door, and they knocked before opening the door, pulling me into the room with them and throwing me on the cold floor. My buttocks hit the hard floor, and I exclaimed in pain. Filled with unbearable pain, I slowly lifted my eyes, and my heart skipped when I saw Alpha Edward seated on the couch, his daggering eyes glaring at me. “Leave us,” he said to the men, and I swallowed in fear.
