Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY FIVEOLIVIA “So if I get you clearly, you're saying there's a woman out there with a striking resemblance to me. She's been through a lot and you want me to go see her because you think I can help her heal from her trauma?” I asked my mate, unsure of his response. “Right.” He confirmed. With the way he's looking at me with skepticism, I can tell he is afraid that I would not buy his idea. Far from it, I'm rather impressed at how thoughtful he is. With how big, stoic and proud he is, you would think he had no emotion somewhere inside of him but I know better. “Baby, if you're not comfortable with it, we can just let it pass.” He tapped me, bringing me out of my thoughts. “Sure. Why not? I'll go see her.” I assured him with a smile. “I was just thinking about how, you know, how thoughtful you are, so different from your outward appearance.”“Really, Via?” He faked a frown, pretending to be hurt. “What happened to not judging a book by its cover?” He complained.I bursted into a long lou

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR CAMERON The result showed a heavy amount of the Aphrodite's kiss in her system. How on earth did she manage to live with such an unhealthy amount of that substance in her system? I immediately mindlinked Landon to request for the antidote.‘Send a message to the council to request for the Aphrodite's blur. It's highly needed here.’ The doctor left the room after ensuring that she was physically okay save for the marks she incurred while she scratched her body during her artificial heat.“Leave us.” I excused Lucas and his Luna.With just the two of us in the room, Clara made to sit up on the bed. “Your Majesty,” She called weakly.“Quit the formalities.” I ordered and pushed the chair towards her a bit.‘What a good way to be informal, human.’ Gray mocked. I inhaled a deep breath to compose myself. I would have to check the tone of my voice at all cost if I wanted her to be free with me. And if she is who I think she is, then by all means I needed to get informal with her. But

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY THREE CAMERON I had to rush to the Red Moon pack in spite of my mate making a fuss. Thankfully, with Landon driving as fast as possible, we got there in good time and Clara had already been resuscitated. We hadn't gone quite far into the packgrounds when an unexpected voice sounded in my head. ‘Cameron, I'm sorry.’ My mate's sweet voice distracted my thoughts. ‘Wow! That was quick… and unexpected.’ I mindlinked her back, eagerly expecting another response. ‘Really?’ she chuckled and I responded with a chuckle too, knowing that she was rolling her eyes by now. Even though I'm upset, I know it's not at my mate. Believe me, I want to be angry at her for her frequent tantrums but I just can't bring myself to get angry at my sweet little wolf over something as trivial as this. Knowing how suspicious my action was this morning, I only wished she would give me a little more benefit of doubt. I couldn't tell her the real situation because it was supposed to be a surprise. ‘She’s still very

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY TWOOLIVIAWith Cameron and me ravishing each other as much as we both desired, the days went by in a blur. Right now, I'm sitting on the bed, the sound of running water in the bathroom confirming that my mate was having a good shower without me. Cameron had to go back to tracking down rogue wolves again as that was his mission here in the first place but this time, he’s made sure to not neglect me like before. How could he? When there's a mindlink between us that works even long distance. ‘Seems you now mind me joining you in the bathroom.’ I half-joked and half-complained through the mindlink. ‘Never would, sweetness.’ he chuckled, knowing I did not take the issue of him having a shower alone half as seriously as I sounded. After having his bath and stepping into the walk-in closet to dress up, he pulled me into his big arms, kissing me softly on the face, his scent lingering on every part of my body he touched. “I wish I really didn't have so much to do today.” He hissed, obviously

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY ONECAMERON Restraining myself from eating my mate up while being with her for about a month now even though I badly wanted to, had to be the most quelling task I have ever had on my hands. I was a man with zero patience yet I literally had to battle to keep my primal need under control. Frankly, it wouldn't be too extra to say I deserved an award of some sort.I had always known it was going to be impossible for her and her wolf to accept me just like that so I was willing to wait. But what I did not know was how tough it was to keep my hands to myself. With my patience stretched so thin, I still wanted her to come to accept me as her mate by herself and at her own pace, not because she feels forced or obligated to do so. Good thing she came around soon enough and now that I've had a taste of her, I wasn't about to let her go so soon. Infact, I doubt I'll be letting go of her in a few hours. She's just the perfect one for me and I love her the way she is. I pushed her further into th

Chapter: CHAPTER THIRTY OLIVIA “I did not realize how much I missed her meals until now.” I tell Cameron as I excitedly move up the stairs with him in tow, his big hands on my waist. The taste of the scrumptious lunch or dinner - whatever it was we had, still lingered heavily in my mouth. Mrs. Mila's food was always mesmerizing to the taste buds. As soon as we walked into the bedroom, Cameron shut the door behind us, pulling me into his arms and rubbing me against his hardness.“There’s something much more delicious that you're yet to taste though.” He winked and pecked me on the forehead. “Really?” I widened my eyes in fake shock. “You have no idea.” He grinned, playing along with my acting. “So sorry then. I'm full already.” I rolled my eyes, pretending to be uninterested. “Since you're so full, I could eat you instead.” He whispered in my ears. The hoarse voice that accompanied his words sent sparks all over me shooting down to my core.‘Ooh… That's hot.’ Ava squealed in excitement. So what if I ju

Chapter: A job?That was a lie and the two men at the table had actually cared enough to look at her to know that it wasn't true.“I have told you already. You are a part of the family. Call me Chris.” “I'm sorry, sir…sorry..uhm.. Chris. It's just that I've been thinking...” Gina “Don't you worry your pretty head over anything, Gina. I'm sure you'll soon get used to everything here.” He quickly cut her short, thinking she was still bothered about their escapade. Adams couldn't help but chip in. “Sure. Don’t worry about whatever. There's a way of doing things here and you’ll get to learn them soon enough, that's if you want to survive here.” Survive here? She didn't know that she was being brought here to survive. She had thought she was getting married, no one had told her she was signing up to be thrown into prison. Had she known, she wouldn't have signed on the dotted lines then. “Don't scare her, Adams.” Chris scolded Adams before turning to Gina. “What do you plan to do now that you're here?

Chapter: Overdressed for dinner Gina got bored as the days went by. With no place to go and no one to talk to, she saw herself becoming often pissed and irritated. Her new status as a billionaire wife did not help her predicament at all as her husband wasn't in the least involved with her. It was true that she had no friends but this time, it was very different as she had the maid back home who talked to her nicely and respectfully and Mia who she shared almost everything with. She had tried to warm up to a few of the staff but they were still skeptical about her. With Adams and Chris always out for most of the day, she only ever got good company during dinner when they were both back from work. She resorted to cherishing every dinner as she always had real conversations with Chris. On very good days, Adams would chip in a sentence or two. Right now, she was preparing to go downstairs for dinner but this time she was going to ask for the very thing that had been on her mind for a few days now. Been indoors for alm

Chapter: Mia's little surprise It was hard for Chris to pull his eyes away from his daughter in-law. He had never seen anyone look this gorgeous in such a simple dinner dress and stiletto. The champagne gold dress clung to her body like a second skin with the high slit running from her mid thigh down, accentuating her long flawless straight legs. And those heels? They were made for her. As though Gina felt Chris' intense gaze on her, she looked up to meet those deep blue eyes that fascinated her. Chris quickly recollected himself, tearing his eyes away from her and cleared his throat as his daughter in-law took a seat beside his son who merely threw her a glance as he drew out a seat for her. “Mia.” Gina steadied herself from falling. She did not expect that the sister she had been on the phone with about half an hour ago was already in her home all the while they spoke. She almost rolled her eyes as she saw how calmly seated her father was as though he did not just sell his daughter off for a business deal. C

Chapter: Lady in champagne gold Chris bit his lip as he walked away from the room. He had managed to put up his calm, understanding act long enough to fool the young lady but there was no way he could hide the truth from himself. He wanted nothing but to pull her off the ground and press her body against his. Maybe. Just maybe. He could steal a piece of the chunk of pleasure he had experienced the other night. “Are you alright, sir?” One of the maids asked, knocking him right out of his thoughts. His hands immediately went to his chin to make sure that he wasn't drooling. It wasn't until then he noticed that he was leaning on the door frame. “Yeah, I am. Just lost my balance,” he said, pushing his body upward to regain his composure. Only that, there was no way in hell would he be okay the way he was at the moment. A man who was okay would not be leaning on the door frame of his son's room fantasizing about his daughter-in-law. He straightened himself and cleared his throat before turning to the maid in hope

Chapter: Facing her fear Gina slowly laid back on the bed, her mind mulling over the overwhelming events that had happened in just one day. This was just the first day of her marriage and she already had major problems, each one fighting for her attention, not allowing her a breath of relief. Which issue was she to resolve first? Was it the random stranger at the club who coincidentally is now her father in law?Gina felt she had seen a momentary sparkle in those blue eyes on seeing her and for some reason, it still lingered in her head. Or was it the outrageous rules the man she had just gotten married to had outlined for them to live by? Speaking of rules, Gina extended her left arm to grab the papers again. This time she read out the rules loudly. “Rule one; My freedom is paramount therefore, you are to stay completely clear off my business.Rule two; In the eyes of the public you're my wife, otherwise, you should maintain a distance. Rule three: You are to dress accordingly as your high profile as my w

Chapter: Rules and regulations CHAPTER SIX Time seemed to slow down as Gina's hazel eyes locked on Chris's swirling honey brown orbs. Then, all of a sudden, the time began to move very fast, too fast actually for Gina to process her present situation. Maybe it had something to do with the fact that her heart was pounding in quick successions, accompanied by a loud voice in her head screaming for her to wake up from the unpleasant nightmare. She felt a piercing pain from how hard she bit her lower lip in an attempt to rouse herself from the arms of slumber.“I am indeed alive and awake”, she mumbled.“You’re welcome, my dear.” Chris greeted her warmly, his right hand patting Gina's shoulder lightly. “Thank you Mr…Carter.” Gina replied, with a smile that did not reach her eyes. She quickly remembered that Adams' surname on the marriage certificate was Carter and so she figured that the man who seemed to be Adams’ father would also be a Carter. “Looks like you’ve both met before now..” Adams' shot Gina a curious l
