BETRAYED BY FATE CLAIMED WITH PASSION
Nora's Pov
My husband wanted an open marriage.
Alpha Leo bought me at the age of eighteen as a breeder, and life has been chaotic since then. He hated me and he never tried to hide it. But that doesn't mean when he told me that he wanted an open marriage where he would be the only one fracking around while I stayed loyal, I wasn't shocked. I refused but he didn't care at all.
I pushed back the thought and smiled brightly, it's my birthday. My twenty-two years birthday, and this year, Leo granted me the opportunity to hold a party and celebrate it how I want.
"Happy Birthday, Luna Nora," A beautiful blond woman, whom I didn't identify, wished me. It's not my fault for not identifying a lot of people, Leo made sure I didn't step outside the palace for the past five years thinking that I would run away.
"Thank you." I smiled collecting the wrapped box she stretched to me. First birthday gift also. Today was going so well. She smiled back at me before walking to her friends who stood by the makeshift bar.
Low music played under the chatter of the pack members, who swayed gently. It wasn't time for me to dance as the celebrant, so I sat down and watched the women dance and discuss happily.
I stood up gathering my red ball dress in my hand before brushing my brown hair behind my ears. I should mingled with the dignitaries. This would be the only way to find connections and make more friends. Life has been tiring without friends and I don't look forward to waking up without one again.
My shoulders stiffened as the familiar smell hit my nose, Alpha Leo came.
Gosh, he made it. This was the best day of my life, my stomach flipped with joy. He had vowed never to step into the party I organized because I was useless, my heart shattered into pieces hearing that from him, so I wondered what changed his mind.
I spun around with a bright smile to welcome him. "Alpha Leo__" My smile dropped seeing who he came with. Lucy, that bitch.
My heart tightened as I watched Alpha Leo peck her forehead while gazing at her with love. I didn't even know he was capable of loving someone, but he proved me wrong with his favorite mistress.
The members shouted with joy when they kissed passionately; some looked at me with pity, while some laughed mockingly at me. And that is it, I'm done being the subject of ridicule. How could he bring Lucy to my birthday party and start displaying love?
I lifted my dress higher in anger before matching to them. "What...are you doing?" My voice stammered before it became steady. "Why are you here with this_" I paused, casting a horrible look at Lucy. She scoffed, flipping her hair backward nonchalantly. And that does it, I spit out the word I swallowed. "This lowlife bitch."
Silence engulfed the room and I rubbed my sweaty palms together under the judging gaze of the pack member. Leo shifted his gaze from Lucy since I started talking. The hatred he reserved for me only clouded his eyes again.
"Did I just hear a lowlife bitch from a wolfless barren?"
My legs wobbled as I staggered backward from his insults, tears brimmed my eyes and they fell easily when a mocking laughter filled the room. I sniffed gazing back at him with my tears-filled eyes.
"Barren? How does that have to do with you constantly cheating on me, and disgracing me everywhere? It is my birthday, for mooncake; didn't I deserve any atom of respect?" My voice went high at every word until I was shouting with tears rolling down my face.
My heart burned in pain and I inhaled deeply. When my gaze met with Leo's, the burning in my heart deepened.
He stood up and advanced towards me, I shifted back at the Alpha's aura emitting from him.
He leveled his dark gaze with mine. "I already warned you not to be in my business. I want an open marriage, there is nothing bad in it." I didn't even know Lucy was by his side until he pulled her closer and planted a kiss on her neck. "I found my partner." He smiled before his eyes darkened. "But you dare not try that with me."
I burst into a loud cry at his words. I shouldn't be crying, I kept telling myself, but it's not easy watching your husband hurling insults at you while praising his mistress.
I hate this so much, I hate you. I wanted to scream, but they refused to come out, so I ran out instead.
“I have had enough, I am leaving Leo for good,”
