“It’s the other way around,” he said. “I am the one who is not good enough for you, princess.”

I slapped his arm playfully.

“Stop saying that,” I said. “You are the best thing that has ever happened to me.”

He chuckled and kissed the top of my head.

“I love you so much, princess,” he said.

“I love you too, my Alpha,” I said, smiling contently.

Our son started crying, making us chuckle.

“I got him,” Drake said as he let me go and stood up.

He approached the crib and picked our son up.

“Hi, Alpha Hayden,” Drake mumbled. “Your daddy loves you so much.”

My heart skipped a beat as I watched the love of my life smiling at our son. I couldn’t believe how lucky I was. I couldn’t believe that a man like Drake chose me. I couldn’t believe that he loved me. I would always be grateful for it, and I would always do everything I possibly could to show him how much I loved him.

Nathan & Janet

CHAPTER ONE – My Father

Nathan’s POV

“What the fuck happened to you?!” Mark exclaimed as I entered my office.

He rushed toward me and helped me to sit down on the couch.

“Holy shit, Nathan,” he mumbled, tilting my head to look at my beaten and bruised face.

“Nothing I didn’t deserve,” I mumbled, making Mark furrow his eyebrows.

“What the fuck are you talking about?” he asked.

I sighed and glanced at the liquor cabinet.

“Get me a glass of whiskey, will you?” I mumbled.

Mark sighed and walked to the cabinet. I watched him pour whiskey into two glasses.

He walked back toward me and handed me a glass.

I took it from him and poured the whiskey down my throat.

“I was the cursed mate,” I mumbled, looking into an empty glass.

“What?” Mark mumbled, shock evident in his voice.

I looked up at him and took a deep breath.

“She wasn’t mine,” I said. “I was the cursed one.”

Mark’s eyes widened. I could tell that he had a million questions to ask me, but I assumed that he didn’t know where to start.

“They let me go because I’m an Alpha,” I said. “They said they didn’t want to kill me and go to war with my crazy father.”
