The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 424

Chapter 424: UTHER’S BLACKMAIL

Anna’s chest rose and fell rapidly as the emotions flooded her all at once, shame, rage, jealousy, and a strange, icy fear.

Her wolf was clawing beneath her skin, snarling, demanding answers, vengeance, blood.

Blood for the one who now wanted to claim her own mate.

How dare that bitch?!

Erik... Jasmine...?

Initially she had guessed it as just a figment of her imagination.

Even when she had later confronted Erik and Jasmine they had both denied it.

She had had no proof that they were having a relationship.

But now her uncle’s words gave them weight.

She but the bottom of her lip in anxiety so hard she tasted blood and then dug her nails into the curve of her arm.

This was different.

Now here her entire being was crashing.

All because of Jasmine.

Jasmine once again was ruining her life.

She tried to force herself to believe that it was a lie.

She turned to the one who had just turned her life upside down with this story.

"You’re mistaken," she said coldly, her eyes meeting Uther’s with a simmering fire. "Erik would never... betray my brother like that."

Uther only smiled, the kind of smile that knew too much. "You forget I was in the Crescent Pack long before you were taken. I still have contacts, ears in places you wouldn’t imagine. I’m am an old man. I can tell when a wolf lusts after another she wolf."

Anna turned her face away hoping to not hear all the things he had to say.

Trying to shut him out.

"Jasmine has been keeping secrets, very dangerous ones. I’m not here to argue with you, Anna. I’m here to remind you who the enemy is. I am here to remind you who you are. Who you were born to be."

She turned her head away, jaw clenched. "And what’s that?"

He stepped closer, lowering his voice until it was nothing more than a whisper brushing against her ear. "The Luna of the Crescent Pack. His blood. His equal. Not some outsider with tainted lineage and a bastard in her womb."

"But I’m his sister." She said helplessly. "I can’t be Luna while he is Alpha."

"Of course you can." Uther said. "Being a Luna doesn’t simply mean you have to be his mate no my dear. Even a sister can become Luna."

Anna’s blood went cold at those words.

All Anna had wanted growing up was to be married into a wealthy pack, preferably royal family.

Where all she could do was throw parties and have anyone and everyone at her beck and call.

She never really cared about power as long as she had everything that made her comfortable.

But after the moonlight pack had been taken captive, Anna realized there and then she wanted more than to be a pretty wife.

She wanted more and what was better than discovering that the brother amd family you never one existed was from a powerful wolf clan.
