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
D E L I L A HI slowly opened my eyes, feeling a dull ache pulsating through my head. As my vision adjusted to the light, I found herself in an unfamiliar hospital room with sterile white walls. The air felt heavy with the scent of antiseptic, and the distant sounds of beeping machines echoed through the sterile environment. Confusion washed over me, and I couldn't help but wonder how I had ended up in a hospital.My memory was foggy, as if a thick veil had been draped over my thoughts. I tried to recall the events leading up to me being in the hospital room, but all I could summon were fragments, like scattered puzzle pieces waiting to be arranged.I lifted a trembling hand to touch my forehead, only to feel a bandage wrapped tightly around my head. A dull throb emanated from beneath it, a reminder of some kind of injury. What had happened? How had I sustained such an injury?It was only them I noticed the mop of black hair on the bed. I could already tell who it was before I even sa
D E L I L A HAfter staying at the hospital for two more days, I was finally discharged from the hospital. It felt nice to finally leave the boring white walls of the hospital and finally get to eat good food.The hospital's food always tasted bland and tasteless. It's been two days since I've seen Azriel and I really wanted it that way. Seeing him would remind me of all I went through because of him. Now he has a crazy ex wanting to kill me just so she could have him all to herself. I still couldn't believe Carmen would stoop so low and plan with her sister to try and kill me.Was her obsession for Azriel so much that she would go to any lengths to get me out of the picture? I never wanted to be in the picture in the first place. Who knows what more she could do after pulling this stunt?The realization suddenly hit me that I could have died. Hell, from how hard I had hit my head on the tree, I doubted I would have survived. I could have died because of him. My grandmother was proba
D E L I L A HI have always known myself to be a coward and today was no different. Because as soon as Azriel stood from between my legs, I ran out of the room like a fucking coward. I immediately shut the door to my room and slid down to the floor, trying to catch my breath. Oh god, what have I done?I was startled by the sudden knock on the door and after that came Azriel's voice. “Delilah, open the door.” He ordered softly, his voice filled with… conflict? “Did I do something wrong? Because I don't understand why you would run off after what just happened.”“Please go away, Azriel.” I said with a small voice. “I'm not going anywhere until you at least give me an explanation. I thought we were getting somewhere…”I cut him off before he could finish that sentence. “That's the problem, Azriel! We are not getting anywhere! We are never getting anywhere, can't you see?” As if my previous words didn't have any effect on him, he spoke. “Open the damn door or I swear I will break it do
D E L I L A H“Okay, I can't keep this in anymore. What's up with you?! You've been smiling like a hormonal teenager who just had her first kiss all morning! Now spill!” Delilah demanded, looking a little too excited. “I didn't know smiling has now become a sin, Sienna.” I said, trying to fight back my smile. “I know you just don't go around smiling for no reason.” She said, rolling her eyes. “Are you going to tell me or do I have to force it out of you?” Her eyes held a mischievous glint and I knew she was up to no good.“Okay, fine.” I grumbled. “It's Azriel.” I finally said.Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at me suspiciously. “Omg, I said it! You guys finally had sex, didn't you? I knew that conversation was definitely going to turn into something more.” Shs said, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.My eyes widened in horror at her assumptions and my face immediately grew hot. Yes, we didn't have sex but we still did something more. But was I really going to tell his sist
