A Broken Contract (Alpha's Secret Regret)

At first, Cassie was confused by the former rogue's words.

"You're mistaken, Bronco," she said. "Is the alpha upstairs?"

"Please call me Oak. I don't go by Bronco anymore. And yes, the alpha is upstairs," he replied.

"Then take me to him!" She started to turn away when he replied.

"We have to let him know you're here first, Miss White. Like I said, he's got guests. I can't just take you to him." "What guests? Are they business partners?"

The look on his face made her feel foolish. What he said earlier echoed in her head before he repeated himself.

"His... the young Luna is up there, Miss"

Cassie wanted to strike the male across the face. She wanted to stab his throat with her claws repeatedly until he got his mind right.

How could he dare call someone else the young Luna? Forest Moon had one of those at the moment, and that was the senior Luna, Elise Reign.

She, Cassie, was going to be the younger one soon.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

She took a deep breath to cool her fury. As she stared at him, he stared back, unwavering. What he just told started to sink in as their eyes held. Another she-wolf was up there with her alpha.

Cassie wanted to insist on seeing Nick. She wanted to confront him. What would happen if she did? She brought out her phone and began to dial his number.

As expected, her call went straight to voicemail. She wanted to scream but took another deep breath to calm herself.

If Nick took this other she-wolf seriously, he would've called off their engagement, right?

Bronco. Oak. Whatever he called himself. He was mistaken. This woman was probably another of his plaything for now.

Her mood soured even more when she recalled that the alpha didn't play like this. Pack members gossiped about his sex life. Some had spotted him in a few of the city's top strip clubs. That was all she knew. Her guy's report of him was clean. Cassie felt sick. She'd been feeling special thinking that Nick was keeping her for the night of their mating ceremony.

"Have you seen this woman's face?" She asked the guard.

"Yes, she's a Forest Mooner... I think," came the guard's reply.

Her heart dropped down to her feet.

"Not a plaything then," she mumbled like a lunatic.

The guard frowned.

"I... I need a room," she stammered.

The guard motioned to the counter, trailing beside her.

"Look, I was mistaken," she told him. "D-don't mention this to the alpha. We never had this talk."

"Sorry, Miss. I report to Gamma Rich, and he has to know someone was here claiming -"

"Listen to me, you rogue!"

She took a deep breath to calm herself. One glance at the receptionist, she gave a fake smile and continued,

"Sorry about that. But please... you

owe my family! I'm asking you this as a favor. ll be gone in the morning. Alpha Reign doesn't ever

have to know I was here. It'll just cause him unnecessary problems, don't you agree?"

As the male's face started to soften, Cassie knew she had him. She knew that if she had to protect her position in Nick's life, she needed all the information she could get about this she-wolf that was threatening it.

Sara POV

The next morning, I walked into Alex's room to find the child with a wide grin on his face.

Nick was sitting on the bed with his back to me. He turned around casually, the warrior teddy bear in his arms.

As his eyes did their sweep over me, he blinked a few times. I caught his throat bobbed before he quickly looked away. His thick hair was still wet from the shower. "Good morning, mommy," Alex waved. I wave back, unable to speak for some reason.

"I'll leave so you can get ready for school," he said gently to his son as he handed him the toy.

When he rose from the bed, I tried to keep my eyes anywhere else but at him. The flesh of his broad, tattoed chest was visible between the open helms of the robe. I dropped my gaze to my feet, then the window, before fixing it at the fancy drawer sitting by the corner.

Seconds later, my disobedient eyes were back on the male before me. He now stood nearly bare-chested only inches away. I hold my breath, unwilling to take in his scent. "You're in my way, Sara," he said in a soft voice.

I jumped, suddenly recalling that I was standing between the door jamb. As I stepped aside to let him pass, our bodies brushed, and I scuffled my feet to move further away. "See you soon," he murmured. Was he talking to me or his child?

"Wolfgang!" Alex yelled in delight.

My head was still foggy from that few seconds of lust. I didn't know what my son meant. Then he held up the toy and screamed again,

"His name is Wolfgang, Mommy."

Fitting, I thought with a scoff.

"Do you like the name?" I asked him.

"Yes. Yes. Wolfgang," he screams.

I started to smile and then recalled that our days in this penthouse suite were numbered. If all goes well, we could be moving back to our place within a few days. Nick was in for a surprise. But how would Alex take it?
