Alpha's Fated Contract Wife

"It seems like you're prepared for another round..." He chuckled lowly into my ear, his deep voice sending shivers down my spine. As I placed a hand on his bare, muscular chest, I attempted to draw him closer, but he chuckled and stepped back. "I'm sorry, but don't mistake our encounter for anything more. That was a singular experience, nothing more," he said firmly. "You're not my match... I won't pursue a relationship with someone who can't even transform into her wolf. We are nothing together." "But we're supposed to be mated..." I protested. "You're not the type of woman I'd choose. A werewolf without her wolf form is an embarrassment. Our connection ends here," he replied coldly, throwing my clothes at me with a cruel smirk. "Get dressed and leave. There are others waiting for me." --- Hazel, once a member of the pack, now considered a disgrace due to her inability to shift, sought a fresh start in the city after being betrayed. Unbeknownst to her, a single night with the Alpha would alter her life irrevocably. Alone, hurt, and unexpectedly pregnant, Hazel struggled to rebuild her life. But when her former mate reappeared, demanding her as his contracted wife, she was left stunned. Liam, having numerous encounters, no longer recognized Hazel as his true mate. He approached her with the intention of making her his contracted partner. Fueled by anger and heartache, Hazel faced a difficult decision: would she accept his proposal, unsure if he truly cared or if he only wanted the child? Was he using her once again, or had he lost touch with her genuine nature?
