Mated by Contract to the Alpha (Rebecca and Dominic) novel Chapter 204

Chapter 204

Rebecca’s POV

We walked through the spacious entrance hall where several servants, seeing us, quickly bowed their heads. I could feel their curious glances and slight feat–they must have heard about yesterday’s events, Emily approached us, her posture ramrod straight, expression serious.

“Alpha, Luna,” she greeted us, “Mrs. Sterling awaits you in her office.”

Dominic’s jaw tightened, but I squeezed his hand gently. “Lead the way, Emily,” I said, my voice steadier than expected.

Through corridors and up

d up stairs, we finally reached Marianne’s private office. Emily knocked lightly, then stepped aside.

“Enter.” Marianne’s voice came from within, controlled and cool.

Dominic pushed the door open first, and I followed. Marianne sat in an elegant armchair, dressed in a sophisticated navy suit, her hair immaculately styled Her gaze landed directly on me, cold and assessing.

“Have you come to apologize or to say goodbye to the pack?” she asked bluntly, hostility evident in her tone.

I felt my wolf growl within, an instinct to protect myself and my unborn child rising. But I kept my voice calm as I met her gaze.

“I’m sorry you’ve taken such a narrow position, Marianne,” I said, my voice low but clear. “You, more than anyone, should understand the sanctity of the mate bond. As Luna, you teach the pack to respect this connection, yet you suggested I abandon it?

Marianne’s expression shifted slightly, but quickly returned to its cool mask. “You don’t understand our world, Rebecca. The Luna position isn’t just a title; it comes with responsibilities and sacrifices. I merely wanted you to recognize your limitations.”

I stood straighter, feeling power rise up my spine. I’m here to tell you that as Dominic’s destined mate and the mother of your future grandson, I’m not leaving. Sterling Manor will be our home. I will learn, I will adapt, I will become the Luna the pack needs.”

My

y voice grew stronger, gold flashing in my eyes. “Dominic is my destined male, proven by this mark and every drop of blood in my body. My loyalty to him is beyond question.”

Marianne’s gaze fell to my hand as it protectively caressed my stomach, her expression complex and unreadable.

“I know you fear change,” I continued, my tone softening slightly. “I know you want to protect your son and the pack. But for this Innocent little wolf cub, for your grandson, would you harm his mother?”

I stepped closer, looking directly into her eyes. “I’m willing to try building a new relationship with you, Marianne. Not as rivals, but as family. For Dominic’s sake. For our child’s sake.”

expression shifted from shock to contemplation, and finally to something inscrutable. Dominic stood Silence filled the room as Marianne’s e beside me, his presence giving me strength, hut in this moment, I knew this was between her and me–woman to woman, mother to

mother.

“You are braver than I expected, Rebecca Brown,” Marianne finally spoke, the ice in her voice slightly thawed. “Perhaps you do have potential as Luna. Time will tell.”
