After our delightful lunch, Jacob and Alpha Joseph stole away for a private conversation while Fiona, and I found ourselves in the serene ambiance of the living room. "You have beautiful skin," Fiona says trailing her finger on my arm. I slightly wave her hand off me and with a smile, I say "Thank you.""And your face…" She then slightly touches my jaw "Did you get Botox?""Do I did not?" I respond With a nod, she inquires "What about fillers?" "Not that either," I reply "Oh well, then I am guessing you got plastic surgery.""No, I didn’t, I’m all natural," I respond. Why the hell is she asking me such questions? I mean does she even know who I am aside from the fact that she knows I’m married to Lycan Austin… because if she did, she would have known that I am very poor, I can’t even afford my sister’s medicine talk less of a plastic surgery."Really? Well, I am not natural, I got surgeries and not to mention that I got a boob job." She admits confidently "Really?" I inquire. I
We walked into the guest room and It was like stepping into the pages of a storybook, absolutely breathtaking. It emanates a majestic aura and its lavish furnishings and intricate details. The grand chandeliers overhead bathed the room in a soft, golden glow, adding an extra touch of elegance. The master bed is adorned with plush pillows and regal fabrics. Every corner of the room was carefully curated, exuding an undeniable sense of elegance and refinement. "If you need anything please let me know." The servant says before he walks out of the room. I steal a quick glance at Jacob, hoping to gauge his reaction, but his expression remains completely neutral. As the realization sets in that it is just the two of us now, a slight unease creeps into me. This is not going to be weird at all, will it?As I stepped into the room, Jacob closed the door behind us, and I headed to the bathroom to freshen up. Splashing water on my face, my gaze caught my reflection in the mirror and I release
With a smile on his face, he responds, "You." A twinkle appears in his eyes as he continues to speak "You know, I told you that I met someone special? Well, that special person is you.""Wait, are you serious?" I ask with a smile on my face; my voice filled with a tinge of shock and excitement."What?" Jacob responds, his eyebrows furrowing in confusion. It's almost as if he is in disbelief and doesn't even realize what he said. The look on his face tells me that he is clueless about the impact of his words."You said I'm your special person?" I respond, a big smile spreading across my face. It's hard to believe that I hold such a special place in someone’s heart that is not Layla or anyone I’m related to. This truly means the world to me. "I said that?" He asks, his expression filled with disbelief and surprise.I nod enthusiastically, unable to contain my excitement. "Yes, you did! Just now!" I affirm."No way!" He denies it, shaking his head vigorously, clearly not remembering w
~ AUSTIN’S POVThe gentle rays of sunlight filter through the curtains, coaxing me out of my slumber. I slowly stretch my arms, sit up, and let out a satisfying yawn, feeling the sleepiness slowly fade away.I feel really good today. I feel like this day is going to go well because I feel amazing, so relaxed, and healthy. It's just such a great feeling to be in sync with my body especially after what I have been through. I suffered a great deal, but I am so thankful that the doctor put in the effort to help me feel truly relieved, even though I am aware it won't last for long.I need more than just medicines to feel better, I need my wolf to be fine because I know this treatment is not a permanent cure. It is just something I will temporarily feel relaxed about and in a few days of reality, I will go back into the dark world of pain and suffering. I don't know how things will unfold, but I am determined to put forth my utmost effort to make it succeed. I refuse to let myself endure t
I woke up to the ray of sunlight, flashing through my window and directly on my face, I turned around groaning and slightly opening my eyes, I was undoubtedly in the most comfortable bed I'd ever been in sleeping. I laid on my back while Jacob was wrapped around me. His arm slung across my stomach and his head was above mine as he faced towards me.Our legs were tangled together mixed in with the thin grey top sheet. I smiled to myself as I looked over to see Jacob sleeping peacefully, softly snoring; he is so cute. I lifted my hand to move some hair the had fallen onto his face. He stirred slightly, snuggling closer into me while tightening his grip. Jacob liked to snuggle while he sleep and I find it very adorable. Last night was undoubtedly one of the best nights of my life not because Jacob and I kissed but because we both had the chance to truly connect and share your heartfelt moments and emotions. It's incredible how those intimate moments can leave such a lasting impact.Last
Jacob and I are on our way home and I am nervous as fuck! I do not feel like going back home, as a matter of fact, I rather stay back and never go back. I do not think I have to explain why I don’t want to go back - we all know how Austin can be and from how he just disappeared at the party, I am guaranteed that something is up with him and not only that, I feel like he is going to be even more dangerous than he already is.I just don’t know why but I sense it. Things are going to be bad for me and Austin…. He will be the reason why. It’s strange, I know but that is just how I feel. I have been going crazy thinking and I just can’t help but wonder what it would be like if Austin finds out about me and Jacob. Will get hit me? Will he and Jacob fight? What the hell will he do? Jacob and I may not be officially committed, but we do have strong feelings for each other. So when Austin learns about our connection, it's definitely going to be a big deal. He would freak out about it and cr
I look at my reflection one last time before heading out of the room. I am wearing the red fitted gown that Austin got for me earlier. I am still finding it difficult to believe that Austin brought a dress for me. I mean it’s just so unbelievable - it doesn’t sound like what he would want to do or even actually do it. And as much as I hate to say this, the gown is very beautiful and it fits like a glove, hugging in the right places. It is an off-shoulder gown so it is wrapped around my shoulders, showing my neck which I top up with the locket my parents gave me. It matches with all kinds of clothes. Looking at myself, I admired how the dress looked on my body before I turned away and stepped into a pair of black heels. I grabbed my purse and then headed out of the room. Walking down the stairs, I see Austin pacing around in the living room in his lavish black tux and white Oxford shoes. He is using the telephone and seems to be ranting about something as always. I can not be any m
His words rang in my ears and I nearly choked on my food and my eyes widened in total surprise. Did I hear him right or what?"I'm sorry, what?" I ask, trying to process his words."Your eyes are beautiful, very beautiful," he repeats, emphasizing his compliment.Okay, can someone pinch me right now because I feel like I am dreaming? This can not be happening. Austin did not just compliment me - it’s not just possible. I mean, something has to be wrong with him because it’s unlike him to compliment me or anyone else. I don’t know what’s wrong with him but I do that something is going on in his head, because what he just said right now does not make sense at all. He isn’t this nice- as a matter of fact, he is never nice. Maybe something happened to him, after all, he has been gone for a couple of days so I will not be that surprised if he isn’t the one talking to me right now. I mean, he is acting very different than before and it’s kind of freaking me out. Austin never compliments m
