D E L I L A H “What the fuck are you doing here?” Azriel growled, abruptly standing on his feet, causing the chair to screech loudly. Azalea smirked, shoving his hands into his pocket. “Now, is that a way to greet your beloved parents?” Azriel took a threatening step towards him as I watched the whole scene unfold. “You haven't answered my fucking question. What the fuck are you doing in my house?” “Azriel, son…” The older woman started but Azriel immediately caught her off. He turned to her gritted, “What is this bitch doing here?” He shouted, pointing at the younger girl. “As if still staying with this bastard after he cheated on you isn't enough, you let him bring his bastard daughter into my house?!” The girl in question looked like she wanted to be anywhere but here. She looked so out of place and I almost pitied her. It was all adding up now. Azriel had a stepsister? As if only now noticing my presence, Azriel's father's eyes turned to me and I suddenly felt the urge to s
D E L I L A H It was getting pretty late and Sienna was getting ready to leave. The rest of the day was spent in awkward silence except the occasional questions at Sienna who barely gave her answers. Without thinking, I said, “Why don't you all stay here? I mean that if you don't want to stay in the pack house, we have spare bedrooms that you could stay in.” I suggested and Sienna narrowed her eyes at me, trying to discreetly shake at head. “No dear, Azriel wouldn't like that–” Ravenna started but I cut her off softly. “I'm sure Azriel wouldn't mind. This house is big enough for all of us.” Ravenna's mouth split into a warm smile. “If you insist, dear. Thank you.” I smiled in return, turning to Sienna. “Will you stay too?” I asked, my eyes pleading. But she shook her head. “I'll pass.” Her voice was loud of emotions and suddenly I could see hints of Azriel's traits in her. Sienna might be playful and appear too jovial, but she definitely has a dark side no one knows about. Just
D E L I L A HToday is going to be my first doctor's appointment at the pack's hospital. Azriel was supposed to go with me but I haven't seen him since last night.I tried swallowing the pang of sadness I felt at the thought of hearing our baby's first heartbeat without him. I walked into the kitchen to find Carla and Ravenna talking with smiles on their faces. When they caught sight of me, they immediately called me over.I sat next to Ravenna with a smile. “Good morning.”She smiled back but looked at me worriedly. “Morning dear. Are you okay? I heard Azriel yelling last night and I thought–” Was his voice that loud? I I didn't want her to know that her son and I had a fight because of her. She already felt bad enough as it is.“Uhm, yeah. We just had a little misunderstanding.” Carla looked at me worriedly, knowing I was probably lying.Ravenna smiled sadly. “Was it because of me?” She asked, placing her warm hand on mine. “Delilah, I don't want you both fighting because of me. Y
D E L I L A HAzriel had to go to the pack house, so we drove there right from the hospital. I was so not looking forward to seeing Azalea and as if Azriel could read my thoughts, he glanced at me.“I'm never going to let him hurt you, you know that right?” He asked, squeezing my hand.“But why does he hate me? What did he mean when he said I'd be tossed away after I give you an heir. Is that really what's going to happen?” I tried to hide the fear in my voice but I failed woefully.“Azalea hates everyone,” Azriel admitted with gritted teeth. “And do you really believe I would do that to you?”I turned away, looking out the window. “After last night, I don't even know what to think anymore. You suddenly doubt my love for you and call me a liar when you know very well how I feel about you.”Guilt clouded Azriel's eyes. “Last night was a moment of weakness, Delilah. I was just so hurt that you would invite people into my house without my consent.”“But they aren't just anybody, they are
D E L I L A HI couldn't let Sienna see me in my current state. She would figure out something was wrong and probably force answers out of me. So I got out of the room when I looked more presentable and decided to look for Azriel. I knew I couldn't tell him what just happened. That hiscfatger had threatened to kill me if I didn't leave him after the baby was born. My grandmother's life was still at stake here.I needed to thread carefully or I was going to get into a big mess which I couldn't afford. “Delilah?” Azriel's voice cut me out of my thoughts as I found him walking towards me in worry. When he stood in front of me, he cupped my cheeks as he delicately stared into my eyes. “Are you okay?”I shook my head, scrunching my eyebrows in a fake stressed expression. “I just– I don't feel too good. My whole body hurts and I feel like I'm going to be sick.” My heart twisted in pain as I lied through my teeth, hoping he would buy it.And he did. “Fuck.” He cussed, raking his hands thro
S I E N N AWhy did they have to come back? Why now that I'm finally getting my life together without them in the picture? Why now when Azriel is finally going to be happy with the woman he loves?Their presence here was going to change things around here and I was sure. Azalea came with a purpose, he always has an evil scheme up his sleeves and I really hope he wasn't going to hurt anyone this time around.Hell, who was I kidding? He was definitely going to hurt someone. I had a very bad gut feeling about his sudden arrival. I feared for Delilah's life because he seemed to harbor some resentment towards her but knew he couldn't make a move.I've never felt more disgusted to call him my father, he didn't deserve that title. What he needs is to rot in the deepest pit of hell. He was the first man to break my heart from a very young age, but it was nothing compared to what he did to Azriel. And Andrea.I might hate Andrea because she's my father's illegitimate child, but that didn't mea
E L I J A HA frustrated growl ripped out from my lips as I walked out of the bastard's office. This was the second person I was going to and they had very nicely declined– note my sarcasm.I licked my fangs as I entered into my car, looking at my right hand man with the sane expression I had given him when we went to the first company. He sighed, “From your expression, I guess it didn't go well?” He mumbled, staring outside.I gritted my teeth, balling my hands into fists. My body boiled with rage. It was as if reality was truly sinking in that the bastard had really ruined every opportunity I was ever going to have. As if ripping 70% off of my company's share wasn't enough, I couldn't even partner with any other company.“It seems like every other option I might have left, he has taken it away from me. This fucker has a whooping seventy percent of my company's money! He has fucking ruined my life!”“We still have one more option left.” Jordan announced next to me.I glanced at Jorda
E L I J A H“I asked a fucking question.” I growled, taking a threatening step towards him. “Who the fuck allowed you into my territory?” He smirked, folding his arms. “Firstly, I would like to say you have a really wack security system. And secondly this kind girl here let me in, didn't you?” He said, looking towards the trembling maid.“Get the fuck out of here.” I snapped at the maid and she fled from the scene.“I'm not going to ask you again, Azalea. What the hell are you doing here? You of all people should know you aren't welcomed here! I could kill you.” I spat with rage. All I could see was a replica of my enemy and it was taking a lot of self control in me not to sink my fangs into his neck and snap his head.Azalea looked at me mockingly. “You could, but you didn't. You and I know only one person is going to get out of here alive and that person is me. So I would suggest you calm the fuck down and listen to the reason I came here.”My anger simmered beneath the surface, th
