MATED TO MY HUSBAND'S UNCLE

CHAPTER 2

CHAPTER 2

ANNA'S POV

I yawned tiredly as I woke up, my head ached and I strained my eyes but the room was dimly lit by the early morning sun which was blocked by the blinds. I knew this wasn't my room, but I didn't remember booking here.

"How did I get here?" I muttered to myself, before I stared down at myself realizing that I was fully naked causing me to panic.

I heard a the soft rhythmic breathing beside me, only to see a stranger sharing my bed. "Who's that?" I pondered, I couldn't much of what happened yesterday. The only things that I could remember was my husband's infidelity with my younger sister, drinking in a bar and getting super drunk.

I could also remember meeting someone , but I couldn't recall what happened to him. I stared at the person in bed, he was ridiculously good-looking. Was he the one I met? Could I have slept with this stranger? I felt my wolf trying to tell me something about him, but I was far to confused to pay attention.

I gently get out from bed and gathered my clothes which was scattered around the room, with each I felt the discomfort in between my legs. I looked at the man again, I had really had s*x with him. Why would I have s*x with a stranger? It wasn't like me. I wore my clothes with swift, but gentle movements and tiptoed to the door to avoid waking him up.

Obviously I didn't want to wake him up, I wasn't interested in talking to someone I just slept with for no reason. I quietly stepped out of the door into the hallway.

So many rooms, am I in a hotel? I thought as I approached the elevator.

I stepped out of elevator, hurrying out of the hotel into the car park. "Where is my car?" I muttered annoyingly to myself as I scanned my surroundings. I checked inside my purse and my keys were safe in it, I heaved a sigh and hailed a taxi.

I checked the time with my phone, it was 6:57AM and I had to be in work by 8am. "Oh shit." I whispered to myself, I had totally forgotten that I was one who was going to pitch the project to the CEO, after drinking to myself to stupor and possibly having intensive aggressive s*x night of my without remembering it.

"Mat is so going to kill me." I whispered to myself until my phone buzzed catching my attention, the caller ID was my mother and I answered it with a tired sigh.

"Good morning, mom."

"You called me late last night, what were so upset about that you wanted about?" My mom asked and I shook my head while replying her.

"It doesn't matter now mom, I don't want to talk about it."

"It matters to me Anna, and I want to talk about it now." She strongly insisted and I sighed, mom was always like this to me. She wanted to have her way and she always got it, disregarding the feelings of the other person.

"Are you going to talk?" Mom said impatiently and I bit my lip, on frustration.

"I want to divorce Marco, Mom." I said to her, there was absolute silence on other end of the phone, but I continued. "I can't continue the marriage with him anymore, he's a cheater and all he does is maltreats me. I never truly loved him and I am pretty sure he feels the same, so what good is this marriage if we are being forced together?"

"Stupid girl! Have you lost your mind?" My mother remarked.

"Mom, I......"

"Shut up and let me speak, I didn't know I raised such a stupid girl. What do you think will happen to your father's goal? Without the connection to Marco's family, he will surely lose the election and my pack will be ruined. Did you stop to consider that?"

"So, is my only option to continue suffering? Does father even know, what is happening to me?" I flared up at her and my mother groaned annoyingly and responded

"Why are you acting like a victim in this story? Stop being so selfish and unreasonable and do what is best for the family, the moon goddess blessed you with Marco as a mate for a reason. Can't you use that blessings to help out poor family?" My mother vented.

"Or do you think we can depend on your petty salary job as a product manager? We need Beta Marco's money and connections for your father's campaign and very soon you will be the governor's daughter with a powerful family. What more could you want?"

"I want to feel joy and love and peace, That was what I thought I would be getting when I married that man, but pain and misery is all I have known. You talk about me being selfish and unreasonable, but you're the one being that way mom! Why do I have to suffer like this? Don't you care? Don't you even love m....?"

"None of this would be happening if you had just given him a child, maybe he won't be sleeping with Charlotte!" She yelled at me.

I paused for a moment, as realization kicked into my mind. "Wait, you knew?" She didn't respond to me at once, it was a long painful silence before I broke it.

"You knew that Charlotte and Marco were sleeping together, how do you know that? I never told you anything. Is that why you Charlotte is attending her university here? You wanted her to have his heir didn't you?" I asked her aggressively.

"Don't be ridiculous." My mother replied.

It all made sense now, why else would my mom want her to stay in my home? Instead of the university campus, it was cheaper to stay in dorm room of the university.

"Stop lying to me Mom! Ugh, can you at least have the decency to tell me the truth?" I screamed.

"You want the truth? Fine! It has been four years now, and you still haven't given Marco a child. We became concerned that over time, his interest in you might diminish, leading him to seek out another woman to fulfill that role. In the light of that possibility, we believed it would be in our best interest if this new woman came from within our own family. Therefore, we arranged for your sister to step in and take your place. Once she bears his child, the bond between our two families will finally be secured and solidified in the way we had always intended."

This couldn't be happening, this was the biggest betrayal of my life. I couldn't even respond to my mom, I was speechless. I simply terminated the call at that point and wondered where my life went wrong, what had I done to deserve this?

"Umm.... we're here miss." The driver said snapping out of my reverie, I sighed tiredly before paying him and exiting the vehicle. He zoomed off almost instantly, I stared at the dread horror called my home, wondering if I should go inside.

"Screw it." I tightened my resolve and walked into the house, hopefully there wasn't anyone in the living room. I quietly walked upstairs, Marco was sleeping butt naked in Charlotte's room.

As I entered my own room, I was met with the sight of Charlotte going through my necklaces, earrings, and bags. All of which were scattered across the bed.

"What the hell are you doing?" I asked her and she stopped to eye me arrogantly.

"Oh, you're still alive? What a shame, I would have thought that you jumped off a bridge to end it all. After seeing what happened yesterday." She said with a chuckle, wearing my golden necklace coupled with my most expensive hand purse which enraged me.

"Drop it now or else......" I threatened her, as my eyes turned yellow.

Charlotte stared at me for a moment, probably contemplating if I would attack her in my werewolf form. "Tch! It won't be long till I take everything from you, after all.... I'm not barren and useless unlike you." She said while dropping my accessories.

A smirk appear my lips as I responded calmly even though I was hurt, "it's quite disgusting, that my own sister would betray me for a man that is only using her as a baby factory. I'm not your enemy Charlotte. You are your own enemy."

"We will see about that." Charlotte responded as she walked out of my room slamming my door angrily.

Even my own sister treats me like trash, I can't believe this family.

"Ahhhh!" I ran a hand through my hair in frustration, as I quickly got ready for my day. Taking my bath and wearing my formal black skirt suit paired with my black heel, I tied my hair neatly and applied a bit of make-up. I caught a glance of Marco's car keys in the kitchen and I took them without hesitation.

"Crap, I'm so late." I muttered as I got into the car and fired up the engines. Never had I drove so recklessly in my life, it was 8:05am when I got to work. I organized all the presentation documents from my desk and hurried to the meeting room.

I opened the door to the meeting room and luckily, only my team leader along with some board members were seated. I heaved a sigh of relief as I entered the room, my team leader immediately recognized me and pulled me to a seat beside him.

"You're late, I said you should be here by 8am. you're lucky the CEO isn't around." He scolded me.

"I'm so sorr.........."

"Save it, I don't wanna hear it. Did you get the documents? And are you ready for the presentation? Cause you do not want to be on his bad side, so don't fuc*k this up." He warned me.

"You can count on m......"

"Shhh, he's here." My team leader said glancing behind me, feeling curious, I turned to see the CEO.....

"No way," I whispered myself unbelievably as the man who just entered the office headed straight for the reserved seat at the top of the table. Everyone immediately paid their respect to him before, our eyes met for a moment and my heart skipped a beat.

The man I spent the night with yesterday turned out to be my CEO. As I looked at him closely, I wished it was just a misunderstanding, hoping my eyes were playing tricks on me. But, the reality of the situation was undeniable.

I slept with my CEO last night.
