Escaping my arranged marriage with Alpha Prescott

Chapter 61

Prescott

Her eyes were so expressive that they couldn’t hide her pain though her stiff face made me feel like she wasn’t getting affected by this.

“Since you don’t want a divorce from me, you will need to fulfill the duty as my wife so go and prepare for my engagement with Lola tonight,” | demanded in a smug voice.

Matilda scoffed, putting her hands on her hips. She wasn’t aware of how se xy she looked when she gave me that attitude and stood in that position. All | wanted to do was grab her hair and f uck her senseless till she would scream my name.

| wanted her to fight with me and claim her right as my wife. | wanted to see her hurt and crying when | would get married to Lola in front of her eyes but she giggled dryly.

“Do | look like an event manager or a wedding planner?” She pointed her finger at her face dramatically. “Don’t worry, dear husband. | will be there to congratulate you on your doom.”

“You have to attend the ceremony. | want you to watch someone else replacing you right before your eyes,” | smirked.

Matilda rolled her eyes, making a gagging face. “You're so sick, Prescott. You don’t want to let me go, that’s why you put those stu pid conditions in the papers, knowing all too well that | would never agree to it but mark my words, I’m going to leave you soon.”

She was too smart for her own good. | hated to admit that | still wanted her but my ego didn’t allow me to be with her after knowing the dirty truth about her fated mate and her pregnancy.

“Don't roll your eyes at me,” | warned her, hiking toward her in big steps. “I dare you to do that again and | will make sure that | f uck you like a wh ore so you wouldn't be able to walk for weeks.”

Her breathing labored as her eyes flickered over my lips and she stepped backward till the wall hit her back.

My little wife couldn’t resist my charms. After all, | was blessed in that department. No woman had ever said no to me. They would beg me to f uck them.

| caged her in between the wall and me. My hands leaned against the wall as | stared deeply into her

eyes.

“Why didn’t you ask me to abort the pup after knowing that it wasn’t yours?” She inquired with curiosity, staring into my eyes to gouge my emotions.

| retreated to the door but stopped before opening it and turned to face her. “An unborn baby shouldn't be punished for the mistakes of her mother.”

| didn’t give her a chance to respond. | needed to announce my engagement with Lola so | asked. Caleb to arrange a meeting where | could announce in front of all the pack members.

After being betrayed by Matilda, | realized how much | loved Lola. She was the only person in my

entire life who didn’t disappoint me and loved me unconditionally.

| wished Moon Goddess would have mated me with her but | was cursed not to have a fated mate.

“Alpha,” Caleb and Jericho simultaneously bowed to me and followed me to the backyard garden where everyone was gathered. Lola walked to me gracefully with an ear-to-ear smile on her pretty face. She looked as gorgeous as ever in her knee-length blue dress. Before | could hold her hand, Dad stepped forward, blocking my view of her.

“Are you out of your mind?” Dad barked. “Follow me,” he ordered, walking out of the backyard, away from the crowd.

He was seething in anger. | didn’t fear him but | didn’t want to disrespect him by not following his order in front of everyone. Closing the door behind me, | sat on the chair casually while he glared at me frenziedly. The air was thick with tension, his furious Alpha aura radiating off his chest. It was quite visible that he was holding himself back from lashing out at me.

“Speak, Dad. What’s your problem?” | frowned.

“You told me that you married Matilda because you loved her, then, why are you marrying Lola now?” He asked in a low yet dangerous voice.

“She is my first love and I’m an Alpha. | can have multiple wives, can’t |?” | quirked my brow, avoiding his love part.

“This is unfair to Matilda. She is pregnant, at least, for the sake of your pup, let Lola go,” his voice came out as a plea rather than a command.

He knew that once | made up my mind, | would never listen to anyone. For some strange reason, | still couldn’t tell him that we were going to get a divorce right after my wedding with Lola.

The betrayal from Matilda had turned my melting heart into a stone again. The pup he was worried about wasn’t mine but | didn’t want to disclose it to anyone. Her virtue and reputation were important to me, once it got stained, she would have to live with its burden forever.

“You have marked her so it would be physically and men tally very painful for her to see you with someone else and it might lead to a miscarriage, son. And I’m warning you that if anything happened to my grandchild, | will never forgive you,” he spoke again when | didn’t respond.

“You see only her pain, Dad but you forget that I’m your son and I’m in pain, too,” | screamed out in frustration. “I’m the monster, I'm the villain here but let me tell you one thing she is no saint either so either turn a blind eye to what I’m doing or don’t attend any ceremonies.”

My voice came out harsh and rude but | didn’t regret it. Everyone was trying to get on my nerves while | was also in pain. “You're making your life’s biggest mistake, son. Lola left you before for her mate and she would do that again once she finds her second chance mate. She is just using you,” Dad said with a serious

expression etched on his wrinkled face.

“You're forgetting that Matilda escaped from marriage to be with her fated, too,” | snarled at him.

Dad let out a defeated sigh, disappointment floating in his eyes. “| was ecstatic when you told me that you fell in love with Matilda. Her powerful lineage and powers might have helped you to lift your curse. | hoped that you might be her second chance mate once this curse got healed but-” he paused.

His saddened eyes glinted with anger as he cursed under his breath. “Where were you when Matilda proposed her plan of moving to the Blood Moon pack in the meeting?”

“Why are you asking that?” | inquired, not wanting to admit that | was with Lola, and asked her to

mark meConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

His eyes narrowed as he peeked at my neck “Holy shi t. Don’t tell me that you were with Lola and this wound is not healing because she tried to mark you” he growled, pointing his finger at my neck.

1 looked at him blankly, shutting my mouth. He was about to open his mouth but a knock on the door made him seal his mouth. “Alpha, there is some problem on the borders” Caleb informed me hastily looking between Dad and me.

“What is it?” Dad demanded, knitting his brows

Caleb looked at me, asking for my permission. | nodded in approval as Dad would get to know it anyway.

The humans intruded our pack borders and shot a few warriors with guns who were patrolling my Beta divulged

“Humans?” | was shocked after hearing him

Our

pack was situated in a secluded area where no human could ever reach, let alone kill my men. There must be someone who had passed the location information to the humans which could be none other than Dylan Kane.

| had an idea that he wouldn't start a direct war on us because all of the attacks we had faced were indirect but this time, he had gone too far. It was prohibited to share our secrets with the humans as per the Moon Goddess’s rules and all the supernatural creatures were bound to abide by them.

“You better hurry up and come back soon, Prescott. I’m going to have a talk with Camilla and remember that Lola’s comeback is an ominous sign for this pack. I’m not letting that bit ch marry. my son.” Dad said in a restrained voice.

He never liked Lola but he hadn’t shown his strong dislike to her before this way. He had never disrespected any woman in his life, let alone cursing them.
