My breath caught as his lips claimed mine.
"I... I accept your terms," I trembled as he caressed my cheek. My brain was in a mess and all could hear was his whisper.
"Liana, you're mine!"
As a 22-year old Alpha's daughter, I was forced to accept an arranged marriage with an disgusting old man. To find a way out, I made a deal with a mysterious Alpha -- He would free me from my fate, and I would carry a child for him.
What I didn't know, was that the handsome stranger I made a deal with was not a savior, but a devil!
"Liana, please let me explain."
"No," I whispered as I closed my eyes against the pain and disappointment. I looked at my swollen belly, my heart broke for our unborn child.
But, I just couldn't stomach one more lie.
"We had a deal," he reminded me harshly. "You can't just walk away now."
I smiled bitterly at him. "Yes, I can."
