D E L I L A H I woke up to a pounding headache. I literally felt like my skull was going to split into two. I let out a groan and attempted to get up from the bed, but my head felt too heavy to carry. I was never going to drink that much again if this was how I'm going to feel every freaking time. I was finally able to get up by palming my head in my hands as I walked towards the bathroom. I got to the cabinets and brought out an aspirin. I popped two into my mouth and chugged it down with water.I checked the clock in the room and my eyes widened in shock. I had slept for that long? It was two in the afternoon, I couldn't believe it.I let out a sigh and began undressing. I needed a warm bath. My muscles felt painful and sore. After peeling off all my clothes, I turned on the warm water and filled the large jacuzzi. I put in a lavender scented bubble soap and finally slipped in.A satisfied moan slipped out front my lips as the water touched my skin. I laid back and placed my head
D E L I L A HThe library is my favorite place in this house. It was a place where I could just drown the world out and have a moment to myself.To just… breath. It's officially two months since I've been brought into this pack. Two months of not living my life the way I wanted. Two months of not seeing my grandmother. Two months of not hearing her sweet voice singing to me as I cooked.God, I missed her so much. I worried for her. Was she eating properly? Was she taking her drugs? Who cooked her meals? They were the questions that continued swimming through my mind.My parents had died when I was only five. I didn't know them much, only heard good things about them. And a few pictures of them. I couldn't even recall any memories with my parents.Grandma Alma had easily filled in the position of both parents in my life from a tender age and I couldn't have it any other way. She had always told me of how much I reminded her of my mother, her daughter because we bore a striking resem
D E L I L A H I just got comfortable in the living room, reading another book I got from the library when the doorbell rang. Carla, who was busy in the kitchen (she always was), I'm starting to think that woman is addicted to cooking. She smiled at me and walked to the door. I could hear her voice and someone else's voice at the door. But I couldn't quite see the person's face. Carla seemed pretty happy to see her. My brows creased as I wondered if it was the woman Azriel was talking about. Finally, a beautiful girl with dark long hair walked into the house with a huge smile on her face and multiple bags in her hands. But I got the shock of my life when she excitedly walked towards me, dropped the bags to the ground and threw me into a hug. Did I mention that she threatened to squeeze the life out of me too? “Omg, you're so much beautiful in person! I can't believe I waited this long to finally meet you!” She squealed after pulling away. I finally got a good look at her feature
D E L I L A HI couldn't recognize the pretty girl that was staring back at me. Sienna had done my makeup and hair so perfectly that I never knew I could look this good.“Damn girl, you totally ate and left no damn crumbs!” Sienna said and I tried so hard to keep a straight face. I had never been complimented by anyone except my grandmother.Hearing this coming from her, made me forget about my insecurities. I couldn't deny that I looked good. It was so obvious.“Thank you, Sienna. This wouldn't have been possible without you.” I said sincerely. I couldn't even recognize myself.“What are you saying? It was all you, girl! You're fine as hell, I just had to add some little touches and boom! Perfecto!” She formed a thumbs up with her thumbs and I laughed at her dramatics.It felt like I had known her all my life but it's only been five hours. “C'mon, I need to get you to your grumpy ass mate. I can already feel his impatience from here.” She rolled her eyes. My heart skipped a beat at
D E L I L A HI could tell Azriel was barely restricting himself from pouncing on Elijah at this moment. His hands balled into fists and his veins threatened to pop as he glared at the vampire leader.“What. the fuck. are you doing here?” Azriel gritted out harshly.Elijah smiled, knowing fully well that he had successfully gotten on his nerves. “Why? My little old friend doesn't want me at his party? The food tastes horrible, by the way. Hire better caterers next time.” He taunted with a smirk on his face.“Is that so?” Azriel asked, his expression changing from furious to amused in a blink. “And you think I would take advice from you? A good for nothing pauper who allowed his company to go bankrupt? In fact, you should be thanking me for saving you from misery.” Azriel suddenly pulled me behind him as he stood face to face with Elijah. The two men squared reached each other, neither of them willing to back down as it would be a sign of weakness. “You know what I think?” Azriel cont
D E L I L A HIt's officially two days of knowing Sienna and I could say I was already in love with her. It was so inevitable.I think the two months I spent here would have been more bearable with her presence. She always made sure to visit me every day. We had our breakfast and lunch together.Was this what having a friend felt like? My grandmother was the only friend I had.Sienna told me about her relationship with Kameron and made me promise not to tell Azriel about it until she was ready. Apparently, they knew they were mates over a year ago when Sienna turned eighteen. There was a huge age gap between them, as Kameron was in his late twenties already.Azriel never approved of any of her relationships, because he felt she was still young and needed his protection. Seriously, what made him so protective of her? There was definitely something Sienna was hiding and hopefully, I would find out soon. I felt like there was more to the story. Someone must have occurred that made Azrie
A Z R I E L “Did you deliver the files like I asked you to?” I asked Natalie, my personal assistant. She nodded her head. “Yes sir, the files have been delivered to Dean. Is there anything else I can do for you sir?” I was too lost in my thoughts to notice her seductive acts. “No, that will be all.” I said, off mindedly. Something felt incredibly wrong… I just couldn't pinpoint it. “Are you sure sir? I can make you feel good—” “Did I fucking stutter, Natalie?” I growled at her, having enough of her nonsense. “But–” “Get the fuck out of my office!” I snarled, watching as her eyes widened and she immediately scrambled to her feet and rushed out of the office. The only mistake I'd made in the past was mixing business with pleasure and fucking my own personal assistant. Now she carries it all over her head to act the way she likes. If only she wasn't so good at her job. I sat down on my office chair with a sigh. Trying to balance out Alpha duties and running a successful compa
A Z R I E L“I want Delilah's doctor to be changed right this minute. I don't want Carmen attending to her anymore.” Those were the first words I said as I stepped into the older pack doctor's office. He is the first pack doctor and after Carmen was done studying medicine, she worked with him.The middle aged man looked at me with a confused expression. “May I ask why you want to make that decision, Alpha? Carmen is one of my best young doctors around here.” He argued. “But she's not better than you right? You will be her doctor from now on, is that understood?”“Yes, Alpha.” He nodded his head in defeat. “May I ask one thing though?”“What is it?” I asked impatiently, I didn't like Delilah being left alone for too long. I knew she wasn't completely alone but ever since what happened, I grew more protective of her.“If there's something suspicious about Carmen, you have to tell me. I can't risk the lives of the other patients in this hospital. Do I have to relieve her of her job?”I
