Replacement Bride for the Alpha of the North

A smug smile appeared on her step sister's lips when she finally revealed she was actually pregnant with her mate's child. Her father's futile attempt to apologize, for ignoring her all this time, because he had his own reasons and asked her to understand. A plea of forgiveness from her mate as he begged her not to reject him, claiming it was just a stupid mistake that he shouldn't have made. And to top it off, a cursed alpha from the north, to whom her step sister was actually promised, is here to collect his debt, so she has to take her place as the sacrifice now. Darn!

I DON'T WANT TO BE MATED WITH YOU

Dawn looked fuming mad while wearing the prettiest dress she ever had. It was a blue dress with a big flower print around the chest area. She loved this dress because it belonged to her late mother.

 

But right now, she was wearing this because she was going to meet with her chosen mate. What kind of joke was that?

 

Dawn was seething inside, but she couldn't make a scene in front of hundreds of pack members. All the important people in the pack came here to greet this alpha from the north. Alpha Zenith.

 

Far away, Dawn could see a huge black wolf leading around fifty other wolves toward them. The thumping sound of their feet hitting the ground was very intimidating. Those beasts looked very vicious, as if they were going to attack them, instead of coming as guests.

 

Was her father sure that they came to visit and not to attack them?

 

Dawn staggered back when the biggest beast leading the other wolves stopped just three steps away from her and her father and then shifted into his human form.

 

"Alpha Zenith," Alpha Tony greeted the other alpha, who was the guest for their pack.

 

Meanwhile, Dawn was dumbstruck, she had never seen someone as big as him. As an alpha, her father had a tall and huge body, but this man was literally a head taller than her father.

 

"Alpha Tony," Zenith greeted Dawn's father in the same fashion. His voice thundered in the clearing.

 

Half of the beasts had shifted back into their human form, while the other half remained in their beast form.

 

Dawn recognized this as a defense tactic. Her father told her years ago. Though you were on friendly terms with a fellow alpha, you needed to take precautions whenever you were away from your pack.

 

"And this is the girl you promised me? Your daughter?" Zenith's dark blue eyes fell on Dawn and she felt intimidated with his strong presence when his attention was fully shifted onto her. She wanted to shrink her body to get away from his probing gaze.

 

Alpha Tony gritted his teeth, as if he didn't want to answer his question at all, but then he didn't have any other choice. "Yes."

 

Dawn lowered her head, she felt like this alpha was measuring her. She felt humiliated, because at this moment, she was not different from any item, ready to be sold off.

 

Gritting her teeth, she tried not to show her anger.

 

After that brief introduction, Dawn didn't really follow the conversation between them, because her head was spinning. She just got better recently, after the few agonizing days she had to endure when the after effects from herself rejecting Blake hit her fullforce.

 

However, when it was very clear she was the one who needed to rest, it was actually Emily, who was lying lazily on the bed with the excuse this alpha right here would be Dawn's mate. Not to mention Emily was currently pregnant, thus she couldn't be tired, just in case something happened to the baby.

 

And Julia felt the need to rub it in Dawn's face as she mentioned Dawn hurting her sister a few days ago. The audacity of that woman was baffling!

 

"Dawn!" Alpha Tony raised his voice when his daughter didn't respond to him for quite a while. He had been talking to her on their way to the pack house, but she kept looking at the ground before her feet.

 

"Y- yes?" Dawn was startled, her head was dizzy and the bright sun didn't help it. A sudden shortness of breath assaulted her lungs.

 

"Did you listen to what I said?" Alpha Tony narrowed his eyes at his daughter. He looked concerned, but there was nothing he could do at this point.

 

"Perhaps Dawn is just shy and happy that she finally met her mate," Julia chimed in. She felt the need to add more to her step daughter's misery.

 

"It doesn't look like that," Alpha Zenith said bluntly in his dark and cold voice. "If she doesn't want to, I can go to my room on my own."

 

What? What did they talk about?

 

Dawn was completely at a loss. She didn't follow what they were talking about just now. She was feeling unwell.

 

"Don't say something like that, Dawn is very shy. She has been fussing about your arrival, Alpha Zenith. This is the right time to know each other."

 

What gibberish was she spouting right now?

 

Dawn narrowed her eyes at her step mother and the hatred there didn't go unnoticed by their guest.

 

"Let's leave them both, so they will have time to have a little conversation before lunch." Julia swiftly held Tony's hand and then walked away.

 

Dawn only realized it now, they were already in the front yard of the pack house and it was only the two of them, while in the distance away, she could see a few warriors from Alpha Zenith's pack.

 

"You can go back to your room, if you don't feel good." Zenith turned around and then walked away. "I can see how reluctant you are to be with me."

 

Dawn bit her lips. She didn't mean it to be very obvious, but since he had already brought it up, it wouldn't hurt to try her luck.

 

"I… I don't want to be mated to you." Dawn was being honest. She kept her head down as the glaring sun above them hurt her head and eyes so much. She could see the Alpha stop walking before turning around to face her.

 

"Unfortunately, you can't reject me, you were promised to me." Zenith's dark blue eyes were fixed on the girl, who looked pale and breathing heavily before him. He came closer, sensing something was wrong with her. "Lift your head and talk to me."

 

Dawn wanted to do that, but her head felt very heavy, as if there was a huge rock hanging around her neck. And when she did try, the dizziness hit her so hard, while the scorching sun assaulted her eyes before everything went black.
