Sold To The Alpha Billionaire

“Mom! Have you heard the breaking news yet? The Alpha of the GrandFord Pack needs a woman in exchange of ten billion dollars!” “The Alpha billionaire?” Mrs Lindsay’s eyes widened on what her daughter had said. “Then you should sign a contract with him now!” “Wait—what?” Lacey stopped. “Ew, Mom! I won’t let myself get tied with a bald-headed old man. Come on, we can pick someone and sell to that old man. Not your own daughter, duh.” Meanwhile, Samantha Carpenter got out from the bathroom as she didn’t want to be late to the grand ball. But the smile on her lips immediately disappeared when she suddenly saw the way Mrs Lindsay and Lacey looked at her. Today, Lacey ordered Samantha to help her get dressed in her room because tonight there will be a grand ball party at the Capital City to celebrate the Sylvania Pack’s success in their popularity in the business of fashion designing. “Mrs Lindsay... Lacey. I’m now going to dress as well,” Samantha said, her voice trembled a bit. Samantha doesn’t want to ruin the mood because today is also the day Lucas, the Alpha of the Sylvania Pack, will announce to everyone that she is his mate and going to be his Luna. Mrs Lindsay looked at Samantha from head to toe. “And who said you are coming with us?” she replied bluntly. Samantha’s lips trembled. “Mrs Lindsay, Lucas will be there and I... I am his fiancé so I must be there too.” Her eyes are full of hope, wishing that at least tonight everything will go her way. Mrs Lindsay and Lacey are Samantha’s stepfamily. Samantha was a kid when her father passed away, and then Mrs Lindsay took over all of her father’s property including the Carpenters Company. Since then, Mrs Lindsay and her daughter introduced Samantha as the illegitimate daughter and greedily owned everything that was supposed to be for her. Just like how badly Lacey has been stealing Samantha’s designs to own it as hers. Everyone thought, Lacey was the star in the industry of fashion designing who made Sylvania Pack at its peak. But unbeknownst to them, it was all because of Samantha’s hardworks. Her stepfamily was holding her life like a dog with a leash around its neck which made her life miserable. A second later, everyone looked at the door when Lucas entered. He is wearing a black suit with his good posture, commanding an attention. “Lucas...” Samantha called him with a smile on her lips but Mrs Lindsay immediately interrupted. “Alpha Lucas!” the old lady abrupted. “What is it, Mrs Lindsay?” Lucas asked. “I’m afraid my daughter will be alone at the ball,” Mrs Lindsay acted gloomy in front of him. “There is probably no problem if she will be your partner for tonight, isn’t that right?” There, Samantha noticed how Lucas glanced at Lacey that made the woman’s face light up. “Your daughter is the star of the night so it’s such an honor to be her partner.” Lucas made eye contact with Lacey. He smiled and then offered her a hand. Lacey bit her lips. “But, I’m afraid your mate would be mad at me,” Lacey said hesitantly while glancing at Samantha. Lucas looked at Samantha and then spoke. “She sure won’t.” That’s when Samantha countered. “Lucas, I thought you would announce...” But she didn’t finish what she wanted to say when Lucas gave him a small smile. “This is a celebration for the Sylvania Pack, Samantha, and not an engagement party,” he stressed, leaving Samantha agape. “In fact, the whole pack is waiting for Lacey so, shall we?” he added, turning his attention back to Lacey. Lacey blushed again as she immediately grabbed Lucas’ hand. Samantha fought back her tears, watching how Lucas and Lacey step out to leave the room together. Samantha was about to go out too as she is still planning to prepare and go to the ball alone, but Mrs Lindsay suddenly interrupted. The old lady was holding a dress as she immediately handed it to Samantha. At first, Samantha thought her stepmother was giving it to her but no—it was her stepsister’s dress that needs to be put on a laundry. “Put this dress in the laundry first before you go,” Mrs Lindsay demanded. “The grand ball is about to start so I need to go as well.” Samantha then looked at the wall clock. 30 minutes left and the grand ball will start and she hasn’t prepared anything for herself yet. Samantha let out a heavy sigh and nodded, making Mrs Lindsay smile viciously. Samantha quickly went to the bathroom to put the dresses in the laundry, but as soon as she came back, her stepmother quickly rushed to leave the room and sneakily locked the door! “Mrs Lindsay!” Samantha rushed to the doorknob and tried to open it, but she failed. She tried her best to knock on the door and call her stepmother but she received no answer. In panic, the tears she has been keeping started to fall down. Time passed and the grand ball party started. They all had fun while nobody noticed the absence of her presence. Not even her mate. Feeling devastated, Samira, her wolf, growled. Her stepfamily has been treating her badly. Why did she even expect them to treat her fairly tonight? Meanwhile, while everyone was busy enjoying themselves in the Capital City of Sylvania Pack, Mrs Lindsay and Lacey immediately called the Press Lord of the GrandFord Pack. The mother and the daughter did not waste time and immediately informed them that they have already found a woman to sell to the Alpha. “Carpenters Family from the Sylvania Pack...” The Press Lord read on the other line. “Lacey Carpenter is a popular fashion designer, huh. I see. The Alpha will surely like her—” “No, Press Lord. It’s not my daughter,” Mrs Lindsay cut him off, trembling in fear, she added. “The one I will sell to the Alpha is my husband’s bastard daughter, Samantha Carpenter.” Mrs Lindsay and Lacey no longer care what the old man Alpha will do to Samantha. The only thing that matters to them is the big reward they will receive from him. “Make sure the woman you will give to us is worth the cents, Mrs Lindsay, because if not...” The Press Lord began. “I will abduct your daughter and she is the one I will offer to our Alpha!” Lacey trembled by what she heard. Mrs Lindsay gulped and nodded. “I understand.” When the call ended, Mrs Lindsay immediately received a notification, saying that someone had sent her ten billion dollars to her account. Mrs Lindsay and Lacey looked at each other as their eyes widened, at the same time a text message from Press Lord popped up. “Prepare the woman, the Alpha will arrive to take her.”
