D E L I L A H Last night was an emotional rollercoaster for Melissa and I as I finally told Kian about Azriel. I'd never seen my son so conflicted in his entire life before and it shattered my heart that I was the cause of all of this. Kian didn't deserve this. He deserved none of this. He didn't deserve living almost five years of his life without his father. I had ripped off that privilege from him and the guilt ate me up. His emotions had confused him so much that he didn't know whether to be ecstatic about the news or heartbroken. He laughed and cried. “Is it me, mummy?” His voice had cracked as he asked, making me tear up. “Is it because of me Daddy left us? Does he not love me?” Hearing him address Azriel as 'Daddy' made my heart flip. It was the first time I heard the word from him and I didn't realize how much I needed to hear him say that until now. How do I tell him that it was all my fault that he didn't grow up with his Daddy because of me? That o I was too selfish a
D E L I L A HIgnoring every rational voice in my head screaming at me to stop, I grabbed the back of his neck and kissed him back with the same passion.I parted my lips and he took that opportunity to drive his tongue further into my mouth, kissing and sucking. I felt drunk under his mercy as he dominated my mouth. A groan slipped out of my lips as he lightly bit my lips, enough to send jolts of pleasure through my body.Like I weighed nothing, he carried me and walked towards his desk, he threw every single file on the desk to the ground and placed me on it. Without taking his lips away from mine, he reached down to my shirt and started unbuckling it. “Wait…” I breathed out, pulling away from his lips. “Azriel, we might regret this…” I trailed off, trying to catch my breath.“Do you really want me to stop?” He murmured as he continued unbuttoning my shirt. He opened it, revealing my black lacy bra. My hardened nipples were bare to his gaze and I watched as his eyes visibly darkened
D E L I L A HI was halfway through the door when his next words made me freeze on my feet. I abruptly turned towards him,thinking I was hearing things. “W-what did you say?”For the first time in five years, I caught a glimpse of the old Azriel. He let his vulnerability appear in his expression, catching me off guard. “I said I never stopped loving you, Delilah.”My heart raced as his words hung in the air, the room suddenly feeling smaller. I didn't know how to respond, so many emotions swirling within me. I took a step back, shaking my head in disbelief. I must be dreaming. “I- I don't believe you.”“It's fucked up, I know.” Azriel said, palming his forehead in frustration. “I must be stupid for still loving the woman that ruined me. Stupid for still being in love with the woman that betrayed my trust for her and hid my own child from me for five good years without any remorse whatsoever. You turned me to the monster I was finally running away from, yet my stupid fucking heart stil
D E L I L A HGianna and I were sitting in a restaurant she suggested we go to after long hours of shopping.She was trying to make conversations with me, but with my short responses, one would think she'd figure out by now that I really didn't want to talk.After giving our orders to the waiter, she looked at me for a few seconds before speaking, “Why do I have a feeling that you don't like me, Delilah?” Her question caught me off guard as I looked up at her. “What do you mean?”It was as if she finally decided to drop the fake facade she had been keeping up and twisted her lips into an evil smile. “You know exactly what I'm talking about, don't play dumb with me.” “Excuse me?” I said, frowning at her. “If you only brought me here just to insult me, then I guess I'd have to take my leave.”I was already getting ready to stand up from my chair when I heard her voice. This time around, her voice made me stop right in my tracks. “I know about you and Azriel.”I whipped my head around
B R E A N N AI always wondered what life without pain felt like. I envied people who smiled because they actually felt happy and not because they were being forced into faking it. I had thought life in my father’s house was hell for me? I just didn’t realize that someone was out there; someone so much worse than him.My husband. He was my fucking husband. The one who makes staying alive hell for me.Did I willingly get married to a monster? No. My father had forced me into marrying him. Threatening to kill me if I went against his orders. Thinking about it now, it would have been better if he killed me than living the torturous life I was living right now.He had fed lies to my brother, Kameron, Azriel's beta, the only person that ever genuinely loved me. Telling him that I was in love with this so called guy and that I had wanted the union. I never got the chance to tell him the truth as I was quickly married off and that was the beginning of my sufferings.Andrea. Azriel's fucking s
B R E A N N A “It's none of your business. I have to go,” My tone came out harsher than I intended, as I moved to walk past her. She quickly followed and stood in front of me, her eyes darkening in rage. “I'm not going to ask you this again, Bree. Who the fuck did this to you?” She gritted out, barely able to contain her anger. I felt anger bubble within me at her fake concern. How dare she? Hope dare she try to pretend like this after everything she did to me? “Why do you care? Last I remember, you couldn't wait to get rid of me every chance you got. Stay away from me, Andrea.” “Or what?” She dared, keeping her stand. Then her voice softened a little, “Just the name. I just need the person's name.” “I'm fine. I'm not telling you shit, Andrea. We are not friends, so don't come here pretending like we didn't stop talking a long time ago. You have no ucking right after what you did to me.” I said, giving her one last glance as I walked away. Thankfully she let me. I breathed out
B R E A N N A I knew I was in deep trouble the moment I walked into the house to find Oliver’s brooding figure, seating on the chair and looking at me with dreadful eyes. I stood by the door, the grocery bags in my hands, biting into my skin. My body began to tremble in fear as my eyes darted to the door, calculating how long it would take me to make a run for it. He looked like he was about to kill me and I gulped. He seemed to have noticed my thoughts as he gritted, “Don’t even dare,” He warned, standing to his feet. “Come here.” He commanded in a hard tone. My lips trembled as I tried to control my tears. He was beyond pissed and he was surely going to inflict every ounce of his anger on me. It was evident in his eyes; his intentions. “I’m not going to repeat myself, bitch. Get the fuck here or I’m going to kill you.” “N-no please. I’m sorry, Oliver. Please don’t hurt me, I can explain.” My voice wobbled as I took a step back as he moved towards me. My back suddenly hit the wa
D E L I L A H The next couple of weeks passed by in a blur and Azriel had made it his thing to avoid me like the plague. I tried to pretend like it wasn’t affecting me, but how long could I continue to pretend? No matter how much I beat myself for loving someone else’s man, a part of me still feels like I had a right to do so. He was my mate after all. I shouldn’t feel guilty, right? “Ms. Rossini, I can’t recall employing you to daydream all day, did I?” A deep cold voice said from behind me, jolting me out of my thoughts. I rode my chair to find Azriel standing by my office door with his hands folded across his chest. his expression was cold has a gazed at me. This was the most he has spoken to me in three weeks and my body did that familiar tingly sensation it does whenever I was aware of his presence. The hairs around the back of my neck pricked in awareness as I cleared my throat uncomfortably. “I’m sorry, sir.” I said, keeping a straight face as I turned back to my computer,
