Hope Richards’ face immediately lost all of its colors as they watched the heated scene in front of them. She can’t believe that was her demure daughter in front, moaning and groaning responsively with the man’s every touch.
The crowd was so stunned that some even almost stopped breathing while watching everything unfold in front of them.
The tiny sounds of people’s shock interrupted the busy couple from their activity.
“Gaspal!” Caitlin called out with a delicate cry as she finally see the crowd behind them.
Under the dim lights in the garden, her lips carried a suspicious shine and the sleeves of her gown were in disarray. Her hands clutched tightly into Gaspal’s coat.
The scene was very awkward for a long while before Allen Richards’ voice roared in the dimly lighted garden. “Caitlin!”
Hope Richards’ face distorted before her eyes widened in an understanding of what actually happened. She remembered that bastard's confident announcement earlier.
Allen never expected for his demure daughter to get caught up in such a scandal. But being an expert player of power, the alpha immediately escaped this embarrassment when he announced that Gaspal Ricks was officially Caitlin’s fiance.
However, the situation was too dire for the guests to accept that pale and feeble reason he had come up with.
Given that Gaspal would be announced as Caitlin’s fiance, there would be no assurance that they would really be each other’s mates, given that Caitlin had her first turn to come just yet. Besides, it was embarrassing enough to be seen in that scene and yet for Caitlin’s mess to be cleaned up after by her alpha father.
The guests could only cover up the secondhand embarrassment and judgments with their pretty smiles.
Receiving the looks of contempt made Caitlin ran away from the crowd and into her room.
Today’s party was already ruined.
Having lost such a big face and after a big hit on his family’s reputation, Allen Richards could only force a smile while sending the guests away first. The smile on his face instantly disappeared as soon as he entered Caitlin’s room. His wife and Gaspal Ricks are on his tail.
Caitlin was still wearing her extravagant gown while laying face down on her soft bed.
“Did you have fun?” Allen asked mockingly. “Did you have fun tainting the pack’s reputation?!”
Hope immediately stood between her husband and daughter. “Dear, something is definitely wrong here! Why not ask Bella? Why did she say such an intriguing statement in front of the crowd?”
Caitlin’s head propped out of the bed and her eyes wet with tears as she heard about Bella’s stunt earlier.
“So it was her who set me up?! What’s wrong with that girl, Daddy?!” Caitlin stomped her feet on the carpeted floor of her room and finally left her room to go to Bella’s room.
Her parents and Gaspal followed behind her silently, but with their foreheads in a uniform of wrinkles.
“Bitch! Open this goddamn door!” Caitlin slammed on Bella’s door while Gaspal stood beside her, quietly observing the scene.
Not long after, the door finally opened.
Bella lazily leaned against the door, her pretty ocean blue eyes carelessly surveying the few people at the door. “Something wrong?”
She had already changed into pure white sportswear, outlining the perfect curves of her body that perfectly fit her pretty face and a bit of evil aura.
She looks like both an angel and a devil. An innocent angel that seems to have no sin and a devil that can make everyone succumb to her wholly.
A trace of amazement and adoration flashed across Gaspal’s eyes before it moved back and forth between Bella and Caitlin.
A fake, demure, rotten, spoiled brat and an overly independent and rude, yet pretty woman.
The difference between the two sisters is immediately visible in his eyes.
“You’re the one who lured the guests to the garden, you bitch!” Caitlin was so angry that she raised her hand to hit Bella’s face.
Bella gave a low laugh, almost mocking, as she caught her sister’s wrist. Her eyes were meltingly ruthlessness as she stared at Caitlin’s eyes. “You disturbed my sleep just for this?”
“You…” Seeing Bella acting indifferent, Caitlin’s heart became angrier. She tried to pull her arm away but the more she moves the more tight Bella’s hold on her gets.
“Let go of me!” she squealed as the pain made its way on the wrist Bella was holding.
Bella sighed heavily before letting go of Caitlin’s wrist with disgust. Her eyes immediately found her sister’s eyes and a warning glare of hostility welcomed Caitlin.
“Go away!” The door slammed loudly in front of them, leaving everyone speechless.
Caitlin immediately stepped back as an initial reaction, but she almost fell to the ground when her high heels gave up on her. Good thing that Gaspal was fast enough to catch her, so she didn’t end up falling on the floor.
Seeing the scene, Hope finally stepped up to act as a kind stepmother. Her delicate, dolled-up face showed some dissatisfaction, but she made sure that the tone of her voice would be gentle enough not to anger her husband. “Bella, come out, and let’s talk it out properly. You shouldn’t have done what you have done. Instead of shunning her in front of people, you should have warned her instead.”
Hope’s face changed in irritation as she received nothing but silence from the other side of the door.
She turned her head to look at her husband like a cry for help, but Allen just shook his head at her, to her surprise.
“She’s just some bastard omega child. Just kick her out,” Gaspal snorted, seeing how helpless the family of three are in front of the girl inside the room.
Hope pulled a heavy sigh. If only they could actually just abandon that ungrateful child!
Allen turned his head to his eldest daughter, his face displayed a not-so-pleased expression.
“Follow me to the office. I want to talk to you,” he ordered before his eyes fled to his wife and to Gaspal, who was still standing behind Caitlin. “Alone.”
With his last orders, Allen Richards left the group and headed first to his office.
Caitlin felt all the color on her face drain as it quickly replaced her anger with fear.
Inside Bella’s bedroom, she laid still on her bed with her eyes closed. Her forehead knotting in irritation.After five more minutes of trying to call for sleep, she sat up furiously. Her hand reached out to scratch her long and disheveled hair, while annoyance filled her eyes.“Damn, Caitlin! Now I can’t sleep anymore!” she hissed angrily.Bella exhaled an exasperated breath, got up, and went out of her room. She’s a light sleeper who values the little few minutes she could rest. But that goddamn sister of hers just knows how to further ruin her already ruined day and just destroyed her once in a blue moon peaceful nap!While she was about to descend the stairs, she heard Allen Richard’s voice coming out of his partly opened office.“This is a serious matter at hand, Gaspal! I must make a move in order to salvage the pack’s reputation!” Bella leaned on the wall just beside the slightly opened door. Quietly eavesdropping on the conversation inside.“I understand your concerns, Alpha.
Bella was only six years old when her mother got severely sick.One night while her mother was having another painful seizure, Bella run out of their room to ask for help. They were never allowed to go out unless being called but she was already bawling her eyes out asking for help for her dying mother.Unfamiliar with the house, she ended up coming to the last room at the end of the corridor.The door was slightly open and she immediately saw the beautifully decorated room inside. It was very different from the small and plain room she and her mother uses.The heart of the child was immediately distracted. She quietly entered the room, constantly looking around.“Wow!” she cheered as she looked around the huge room. She wanted to have a room like this too! “Shut your mouth!” the young Bella’s eyes widened in fear as she heard Hope Richards’ angry voice coming from a distance. She then realized that she was about to get caught inside this beautiful room.She frantically looked insid
The next morning, as soon as Bella got up, Allen took her and Caitlin to report to Brighton University together.The family seemed to have made peace regarding the conflict of last night’s chaos and only Caitlin had a stern face along the way, glaring at Bella who was preoccupied with her phone every now and then.When they arrived outside of the university. Allen turned to face his daughters with a stern and strict face, his alpha aura dominating against them. “This is the best university in Cynth City. Make sure not to cause any trouble in here, I took a lot of effort to get you both in,” He turned to look at Bella. “Especially you Bella, your grades are not good, the admin’s only willing to admit you to the education department. Though it was a low-cost profession, you can go back to the countryside to teach if ever.”Bella raised her eyebrows suspiciously, where did he see her grades from? And what? They aren’t good?That what should be good?Caitlin immediately gloated at her, k
The vice principal’s face darkened. “You claim to be Bella’s father . . . right?”Allen nodded readily, ecstatic to finally get some attention from the university’s higher-ups.“Then I shall say you failed being a good father,” the vice principal said with a blank face. The principal looked irritated as he silently watch the scene unfold, his eyes glaring a bit to the two unwelcome presence by the door.“What do you mean?” Allen asked, completely at loss with the vice principal’s words. “How dare you say her grades were poor? Have you seen them?” the principal asked.Allen, loss for words remained looking at him with a confused expression. His wife had told him how bad of a student Bella is. According to Hope, almost all of her subjects are failing and that she only gets to proceed on the next level with her help by bribing the small schools on the countryside.“Seems like he didn’t even checked it himself,” the principal butted in with a cold voice. “If she has poor grades like wha
Suzie stared at the bracelet, didn’t know what to do with it. This was the first time she get to receive something from someone. It had always been her giving something to others that this sudden turn of tables somewhat warmed her heart.“This… this is expensive. I don’t think I can take it.” She can smell Bella’s omega wolf and she wasn’t sure if it was right to take something this precious from someone who was at a bit of a disadvantage against her rank in society.“Nah. That’s fake, so no need to feel burdened. You can choose to wear, keep or throw it away. Your choice.” Bella said with a grin before lying her head on the table and started to prepare for a nap despite the noise inside the rowdy room.Suzie’s eyes went back to the dazzling sapphire ornament of the bracelet, and a soft chuckle left her lips.Their family business is in the line of jewelry. There’s no way she can’t determine a genuine gem.She stared at the bracelet a bit longer before she finally wore it around her w
Suzie excitedly pulled Bella closer to where her brother was, oblivious to the past encounter between the two, she badly wanted to introduce such an amazing woman to her brother.Her brother was already at the age of marriage and yet, he wasn’t able to find his own mate yet. Suzie was starting to worry about him, he’s the youngest alpha ever known on Cynth City and yet he has no luna to support him just yet.“Shawn! This is my new classmate, Bella Richards.” Suzie introduced with a bright smile. “Bella, this is my brother, Shawn Tan.”Shawn Tan subtly sniffed the air before a wide yet elegant smile appeared on his lips. He extended his slender hand in front of Bella who indifferently stared at it for a while before raising her eyes back up to his handsome face.“I didn’t know our Suzie here is capable of having beautiful friends. Feel free to call me Shawn,” he said and even proceeded on carefully reaching out for Bella’s hand and kissing the back of it.Seeing such rare actions from
“Come’n, Bella!” Suzie continued to pull on Bella’s hand and didn’t even let go of her arms as soon as she was able to get a grasp on it once again. She raised her wrist where the bracelet Bella gave her was peacefully seating.“You’ve given me a gift for the commemoration of our first day of friendship! I have nothing to give you so let’s just have a meal together. Huh? Bella~”“That’s not even expensive,” Bella pointed out but Suzie shook her head and pulled her even closer, lovingly rubbing her face on Bella’s arms.“It's the thought that count. For me, this is even better than a billion-dollar-worth diamond!” Suzie uttered.Shawn’s eyes gazed down on the sapphire-adorned bracelet his sister was wearing and his eyebrow immediately shot up.Not expensive, huh?His gaze turned into a dark shader as his interest and curiosity about this omega girl increased.If this is not expensive for her, then how rich could she be?“It’s really not worth anything, Suzie.”Suzie didn’t say anything
Caitlin discreetly entered the noisy pub filled with dangerous people. She keeps on gazing around in fright of being attacked by someone.“Hey, miss!”“Hmm… smells good!”Dirty-looking men started to corner her at one corner before a loud and scary voice stopped them from behind.“Kevin!” Caitlin frantically ran over to the thug-looking guy with green eyes that glared at the men who tried to do something to her. The men tried to battle his stares only to have them running away after the monstrous growl of the rouge wolf.When the assaulters were finally out of sight, Kevin Smith pulled Caitlin over to his table where his men with huge bodies immediately scrambled after seeing their master with a ‘beautiful woman'.Kevin Smith is one of the rouge wolves that were crazily obsessed with her beauty and body. He was not that handsome but he was rich and had a hold on a bunch of hooligans whom she knows could help her settle some score with her disgusting sister.“What brought my goddess to
Bella did not even think about it and just plainly said, “No.”Kevin’s face instantly fell. “Why?”The actual fact is that you will be able to get a lot more than just a few of these.If he did not mention it, it is fine. But mentioning it reminded Suzie about the scandalous sounds she just heard from the recorder.At once, a face of contempt appeared on her face."You are really good at kissing people, but the sound from the recording, you are neurotic? So disgusting oh."Kevin Smith’s face turned black, "Blame me all you want. I just released that recording to help Boss Bella, and you think I’m really shameless?"Suzie Tan bristled, "You don't have to say anything, you've already put a label on me, neurotic!"Kevin jumped in anger and rolled up his sleeves to teach her a lesson. He had a bad temper and couldn't stand this kind of anger.Suzie Tan immediately hid behind Bella, pointing at him and whispering a complaint, "Bella, did you see that? Such a grumpy person. You absolutely c
“What do you mean I’m in cahoots with boss Bella? Why are you trying to turn the tables, you filthy woman?!” Kevin exclaimed angrily.Caitlin deliberately said those words loudly with Kevin around to prove another point.Kevin’s known to be a bad student. Therefore, everyone associated with him is also considered to be bad.The crowd really froze and then another round of loud whispers filled the air. Of course, the words said in a hush manner were never the nice ones.The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who have been believing such stories for a long time. That was just like some usual happening in a society filled with people with snake-like hearts.Bella gave Kevin Smith a questioning look. As if saying that he better do something about the problem he caused her or else…Kevin Smith sighed heavily and nodded before taking out something from his pocket. People followed his every move and stared at the small rectangular black device he was now holding.“I admit that
Kevin Smith frowned at her. His face lacked the same thrilled expression he gives her every time he sees her before, instead, anger and impatience are all plastered on his face.“Watch your words, you filthy girl!” Kevin spat angrily.“Kevin, you are really sick! Did that little bitch give you some kind of bewitching soup? You are really quick to fall back!” Caitlin said.“Continue spouting nonsense about our boss Bella and you’ll get a lot more than what you could take, Caitlin! Show her the respect she deserves!”Bella on other hand has no classes scheduled for the afternoon so she gets to have time to catch up for some sleep.“Wow! You’re sleeping again?” Suzie held her small face as she stared at Bella’s beautiful face with a worshiping expression.She seems to be so mystified seeing how strong, cool, and beautiful Bella looks like even when sleeping.Bella pulled the corner of her lips and slowly opened one of her eyes which was immediately directed to someone who was coming behi
Kevin Smith did not even pay any attention to Suzie and could only rub his hands together as he shamelessly stare at Bella with adoration. “Please accept us as your apprentices! I promise you can count on us at any time, at any place! One call from you and we would come running!”Bella is also a bit speechless.Did she hit this person too much that his brain had stopped working properly?Kevin noticed Bella’s silence and so added, “Bella, you can be rest assured that this area was previously covered by me, in the future I can guarantee you that absolutely no one would dare to cause you any more trouble!The crowd was stunned.They were expecting for a fight to break out and not a dumbfounding scene like this.Kevin Smith is known to be a troublemaker in their university. Coming down to the third lowest in the rank among his batch, he hated studying and would rather fo a fist fight with his classmates than to read a book that would teach him a lot of things. He was only known to have a
The next day, Bella prepared to go to class as usual. But unlike her usual indifference before leaving, she gave a meaningful glance at Hope Richards, who was silently sitting by the patio."Have a nice day, our dearest Luna,” Bella said with a meaningful smile before turning around to leave.Before Hope could say anything, Bella had long been gone. She can only grit her teeth in anger and mumbled incoherent words of profanities under her breath. When she turned around, she found her husband, who was all dressed up, ready to start another day at work.“Allen!” Hope called out in exasperation.“What happened?” Allen worriedly asked as he saw his beloved wife with an unhappy face. He hurriedly walked down the stairs to coax her up.“That bastard daughter of yours! She’s really getting to my nerves!” Allen pounced on an empty spot as Hope avoided his embrace. He immediately knew that Hope was really mad and so he immediately shifted his tone into a rather soft and coaxing voice.He heav
The trio became silent as words started to feel scarce between them after Bella’s statement. Allen could only clear his throat and attempt to change the subject.“What’s going on, anyway?” he asked, pertaining to the way the higher-ups of the university treated her.Bella naturally understand what he meant but pretended not to."Don't play dumb now, Bella! You know what I'm asking about. How did you get into the IT department that easily?" Allen looked at her with probing eyes."Oh, that." Bella did not intend to reveal her ace cards, so she continued to act nonchalantly. “Probably my charm?” Allen Richards’ jaw dropped as he stared at his daughter for a few moments, completely lost for words to say. Soon enough, he could only grit his teeth as he tried to suppress his anger and irritation. He then snorted before heaving a deep sigh and giving his wife a knowing look. Bella yawned. “If there’s nothing else you need, I shall go up and rest. I am really tired.” She lazily walked upsta
Bella gave the young alpha a sidelong glance with a smirk on her face, "And what if I still say no?"Shawn Tan hooked his lips and knocked on the backseat’s window where Suzie was dreamily watching them through the glass.Suzie immediately rolled down the windows and with her hands together, lips protruded into a pout, she begged, "Bella, let us send you back! Stop rejecting us, please!"If it’s only Shawn Tan, Bella could’ve just directly said no, but she in front of Suzie? She just can’t bring herself to say no to the delicate and cute girl. With a helpless sigh, she fixed the strap of her bag on her shoulders and nodded. "Okay."Shawn Tan smirked, knowing that he finally won. He carefully helps Bella enter the car before subtly giving his sister a thumbs up.The car then sped all the way to the Richards’ mansion.When they arrived, Shawn parked the car just outside the golden gates of the packs’ mansion and watched Bella step out of the car with far more grace than anyone he had e
Bella faintly froze and blinked with bewilderment that she did not even notice she had. "What's wrong?" she asked.Shawn Tan did not say anything and just slowly stretched his hand towards Bella’s head."What are you doing?" She looked at him warily. "I’m warning you! Dare to move your hand and I’ll make sure that you’ll never be able to use this same hand once again!"Shawn just smirked at her knowingly, without saying anything else.Bella only felt a slight tickle on the top of her head as he reached for something over her head. Shawn Tan’s big hand later appeared in front of her eyes, with a leaf clipped on the tips of her long and slender fingers.Wait… was he just trying to take that leaf?Bella, completely embarrassed for being overly worked up, cleared her throat while shyly scratching her hair. "You could have just told me what it is. There’s no need to trouble yourself with my death threats just to do it yourself.""I'm happy to help, can't I?" Shawn Tan held up his glasses,
Caitlin discreetly entered the noisy pub filled with dangerous people. She keeps on gazing around in fright of being attacked by someone.“Hey, miss!”“Hmm… smells good!”Dirty-looking men started to corner her at one corner before a loud and scary voice stopped them from behind.“Kevin!” Caitlin frantically ran over to the thug-looking guy with green eyes that glared at the men who tried to do something to her.
