Alpha Dante
In a world of hidden power and fated connections, Aurora, a cunning operative for the formidable Alpha Giovanni, finds her life irrevocably tangled with the cold, imposing Dante. Tasked with retrieving a crucial artifact, she stumbles into a revelation that shatters her world: Dante is her mate, yet he treats her with disdain, seeing her as nothing more than a pawn. As Giovanni prepares to retire, thrusting Dante into leadership, Aurora is forced to work alongside the very man who ignites both her wolf's longing and her deepest resentment. Can a bond forged in defiance and distrust ever blossom into love, or will the secrets they keep tear them apart?The air in the opulent hotel suite was thick with the scent of spent passion and expensive scotch. Aurora, known tonight as 'Rosa,' slid off the bed, a quiet hiss escaping her lips at the sudden chill. Her eyes, cool green and calculating, watched as the man, still flushed from their encounter, tossed a used condom into the bin.
"Did you cum, baby?" he purred, his voice a husky whisper. Aurora hummed in response, a practiced lie, her fingers already deftly unlatching the necklace from his throat.
She moved with an almost predatory grace, dressing quickly, the stolen trinket a cold weight in her pocket. "Yes, you know how things are, love, but I'm sure that we would be getting around meeting sometimes," she said, her tone light, a perfect blend of regret and allure.
He pulled her back for a final kiss, his lips demanding, but her mind was already miles away, planning her escape. As the elevator doors chimed open, she pulled out her phone, shedding the red wig and bald cap, revealing her true dark hair. The familiar number dialed, and a low voice answered.
"The job is done, Alpha," Aurora murmured into the phone, the alcohol's warmth beginning to fade, leaving a sharp edge of reality in its wake.
