Rejected By My Alpha, Claimed By The Basilisk

NIKOLAI

Present day....

“She seems...womanly now.” Tiernan blew out smoke from his nose and lips then regarded me with those dark eyes.

Yes, she’s no longer the girl I once knew, the naive, sweet girl. Her pure innocence is gone and that sunshine in her eyes is now dim and full of disdain, or maybe that’s only to me because she just smiled at Tiernan when he acknowledged her presence.

Fuck, she even changed her name and she has someone who marked...I clenched my fist. I refuse to believe it.

“Some bastard f*****g marked her and she’s telling me she doesn’t know.” I bit back a growl. “If I find out who he is, I’ll...”

“Calm down lover boy. She’s your ex, remember?” The chuckle that ripped out of him angered me even more. “She has the right to f**k whosoever she wants. Think of it as...getting over you.”

That’s the problem. I don’t want her to get over me. I knew I f****d up and I’m constantly paying the price. I knew she wouldn’t touch me again or let me two meters within her circle if not for the contract. She needs to find her younger brother and I need a woman to stand by me, someone eluding the confidence and softness that she has and an heir too to inherit after me.

She said I abandoned her when she needed me the most...when was that? I raked a hand through my hair trying to figure out what she meant.

Obsidian Shield Security is the best security company in the whole of Russia, third best in the world and very expensive too. She had money but not enough to find her brother in a year. f**k knows how long she’s been searching for him. Hence, the importance of our contract. One year, twelve months 365 days, 8760 hours and 525600 minutes to find her brother and we’ll part ways.

Apparently other rival packs and rouge packs have noticed the openings and the weak spots in my pack. I have no heir and no Luna and the people are talking. My pack is strong, stronger than most but it’s getting divided and I can’t allow that.

I grit my teeth, the cushion squeezing under my tight grip.

It’s gotten worse given the series of attacks and poison I’ve been taking lately. It seems I’m wanted dead and without an heir, oh hell no. The craziest part of all this is I feel disgusted sleeping with other women and no matter how hard I try, I can’t bring myself to f**k p***y.

“Exactly.”

Our heads turned to the door and there she was leaning against the wall, a few strands of her blonde hair fell over her jade green eyes. She has cut her long hair into a pixie cut and she’s dressed in a long maxi skirt showing off those womanly curves. I wanted to cut out my beta’s eyes even though he wasn’t interested in her because of his wife, he shouldn’t even look at her, or breathe in her space.

Even now she’s breathtaking, so damn beautiful that I would kiss the ground she walks on. She could roll in pig’s s**t and I’ll gladly lick her. I growled at Tiernan who flinched and bowed his head before walking out.

She walked towards us slowly, her purse in her hands. “I’m here for the contract signing and to add additional clauses to it.”

“Which are, if I may ask.” I cleared my throat. f**k, I’m getting nervous.

“First no kissing and since we have established ourselves on that, if you don’t find my brother within one year you’ll give me 650 million dollars in cash for wasting my time and you’ll leave me and my family alone. Lastly, you’re free to cheat whenever or with whatever you like. I’ll do my duty and be your Luna but be decent enough to cover your tracks. It’ll be bad for business.” Her indifferent gaze fell on mine.

“Well I have clauses to add as well.” Cheat my foot. Is she insinuating that this is an open relationship? “You don’t get to be with any guy. You can go ahead and try cupcakes but there’s a bounty on every guy who looks or touches you. The price is 900 million dollars.”

“And who says it’s going to be a man? How about two men and a woman? That sounds interesting.”

“I’m your only option. My fingers, my lips, tongue, c**k and everything I’ve got is your only f*****g option.”

“We’ll see about that.” She says calmly while taking her pen out. What the f**k is she planning this time?
