Olivia was still waiting, even though it had been almost an hour since Samantha left for the bathroom and she wasn't back. She looked through the window of the car to check if she was going to show up at that moment but still, Samantha wasn't returning. She sighed and dropped her bag then got the car keys, came down from the car and locked the doors before heading back into the mall to search for her… maybe she had seen something that caught her fancy in there and had probably forgotten she had someone waiting for her in the car. She decided to check the bathroom first though because that was where she said she was going to.She cursed under her breath while marching into the bathroom and yelled "Samantha I swear I'm going to make you pay for making me wa…" she stopped once she saw her bag on the floor, the content scattered across the floor with no sign of her presence inside the bathroom. "Samantha?" She called out but only water dripped from the taps.To be sure Samantha wasn't the
It was morning already and Dominic was still watching over Samantha who was fast asleep. He had been like that throughout the night after they returned from Jace's hideout and Audrey took Jace away to take care of him and begin what Dominic was later going to come around and finish up. He called their doctor, Dr Gideon and he came immediately to treat Samantha then applied some healing oil he got from priest Fergus to make the wounds heal faster or she was going to be at the risk of losing more blood or getting an infection and after that, he was gone… leaving Dominic to watch over her through the night.He was opening up the curtains when he heard Samantha stirr in her sleep and began to murmur words that caught his attention, he turned around and dropped the remote to the curtains aside before he rushed to her side and heard her still mumbling in her sleep; she was calling on Jace, begging him to stop torturing her, to let her go. Soon her pleas turned to soft wails and a tear escap
Monse stood in front of the mirror and looked at her reflection in the new dress she just bought from one of her numerous shopping sprees she always went on whenever she was bored. She stared for a long time, meeting her eyes and sighed "I'll wear this tomorrow" she muttered to herself and turned around to face her maid "come on, help me take it off" she urged and she bowed before she rushed over to help her unzip the dress."What do you think about this dress? Do I look good in it?" She asked the maid and she smiled "you look magnificent in it ma'am" she replied and Monse smiled "as I should" she told her cheekily with a smirk and changed into another cloth; a knee length skirt and a blouse to fit with it. She just finished dressing up and was arranging her hair when a knock came on the door. She and her maid turned to look and she looked at her maid next, the lady getting what she wanted her to do immediately and went to the door then opened it a little and poked her head out "how
Olivia parked her car in the parking lot opposite Samantha's cafe and they got down before taking the bag out of the booth and went in.They took chairs and sat in the cafe after turning on the lights and Olivia turned to look at Samantha "spill it, what's wrong?" She pressed and Samantha looked at her before she looked down, her face gloomy "I don't know what to think anymore Olivia. I'm not even sure if I know Dominic anymore" she said and looked back at her "why would you say so? What's wrong? What happened?" Olivia rushed out questions and Samantha broke down "is something wrong with me? Why do I always have to be with guys that seem shady?" She sobbed and Olivia hugged her tight "aww baby, what's wrong?" She cooed while Samantha stopped sobbing and cleaned her tears "remember Dominic changed his clothes before returning?" She asked and Olivia nodded "yeah, but I didn't hold any meaning to it though" she replied."I found his clothes Olivia, in the laundry room soaked in blood" sh
"What are you doing?" Samantha asked as Dominic unbuttoned his shirt and he held out his hand to her "just wait. I'm going to show you who I am, I just want you to watch" he said, his eyes asking her to be patient and she sat back, watching him take off his shirt and then he began to loosen his belt before he pulled his trouser down. "Promise me something" he said to her after he was done "whatever you see now, you'll stay with me regardless and won't be scared of me" he added and she rolled her eyes "of course Dominic, why would I leave you. You're ready to come clean and that's what's important…. I also appreciate that so I won't leave you" she replied and he smiled at her. He finally took a few steps back and closed his eyes to wake his werewolf… once he did that, he opened his eyes and they were pitch black, Samantha gasped as she wondered what exactly was going on.His bones cracked as he growled, hair slowly grew all over his body and Samantha watched in horror, speechlessly as
Olivia switched on the light to her apartment as she pulled Samantha's box inside and Samantha came in after her, Olivia's handbag in her hand and closed the door after them before she fell into the chair and sighed. Olivia left her box and sat beside her too before pulling off her shoes and turned to her "say it, what happened?" She told Samantha and Samantha looked at her "I doubt you'll believe me if I tell you this. You'll probably think I'm crazy" she said and Olivia placed her hands on her shoulders then turned her around to face her and she gave her a stern look "Samantha… just tell me okay, I'm dying of suspense. I waited the whole day for us to get home cause I knew it was something private" she told her and Samantha rolled her eyes at how dramatic Olivia was acting "Dominic is a werewolf" she said with a blank face and watched how Olivia's face morphed into an expression of full shock and surprise… She was speechless and just stared at her like that for a long time until Sam
Dominic was bored. He had been playing games with James all through the day since it was a weekend until James got a call from Audrey to come over quickly so he was all alone again, with his thoughts and overpowering urge to get up and go and meet Samantha at the cafe and make her see once again that they were meant to be no matter what and she was the only one he wanted for himself. Luka and Dona had given him intel that she was back, she returned a day ago and he still couldn't decide if it was right going to meet her or just staying back in his place and waiting for her to come around. Samantha was stubborn, that he knew and it was probably going to take forever for her to come back to him… except he took the bold step and approached her first persuasively, but what if she was still scared of him? It would break his heart to see the woman he loves shake in fear in his presence. He was at a crossroad and he still had no idea on what to do.He decided the only thing that could blur h
Dominic turned back to Joe once Samantha was out of the apartment and gripped his neck tighter while he suspended him the air and he struggled to breathe but was choking instead as his red eyes went back to brown and his fangs slowly disappeared."So you had the audacity to mess with my woman?" He growled at Joe and flung him against the wall and watched him groan in pain as he struggled to stand up but didn't give him the chance to get his footing before he bent over him and punched him on and on until his face was covered with blood and he coughed out blood too. He was sure his nose was broken too and he was satisfied to see him in that state. He grabbed the neckline of his shirt and pulled him closer to him to meet his eyes even though he was about to pass out from the hits and punches "tell your Alpha or whoever the fuck sent you that your mission failed and I don't ever want to see you around my pack or woman again. You hear me Joe?" He hissed and Joe struggled to nod as his mout
Samantha was still pointing the gun, even though she hoped that no one was actually going to attack."Miss, you shouldn't use a gun" the priest started and Samantha glared at him, "do not tell me what and what not to do priest. You're not the one that's about to lose your mate just because you're human" she yelled at him and the priest went silent as pity settled in his eyes for Samantha."Samantha, you shouldn't do this. You could get hurt" Dominic told her but she shook her head "no Dominic, I'm doing this for us. To get us out of this mess before it's too late. This is the only way to make us work" she replied and Dominic didn't know what else to say again. She turned to face the crowd again "now. Everyone of you should leave this hall, there would be no wedding today" she said and watched as Audrey smiled at her before she stood up and headed to the back of the hall, James and Williams following her too after they also smiled at her. She suddenly felt relieved… until she heard Mo
Samantha stared at the ceiling deep in thoughts. She was still in bed and Dominic had already left for work very early in the morning just so he could avoid Monse so it was just her and her mind working at its fastest. She was still trying to figure out a way to stop the wedding on her own because she couldn't bear the thought of being away from him for months.While Dominic was sleeping at night, she couldn't. She knew the last resort he had was to marry Monse and then divorce her aftet a while but it had a really low chance of actually working out. He couldn't force Monse to sign the papers or make her walk away after a few months of being together. What if Joe killed her off before then? Or Monse manipulated him with those magic portions or whatever and then he forgot her? She couldn't let that happen to them. She needed Dominic just as much as he needed her. So she got an idea, at night but she didn't tell Dominic because she knew he wouldn't let her do it since her life would be
Dominic drove into his father's house and parked his car. He turned off the car and stepped down then locked the doors and turned to look at the building. It had been years since he was there last. He remembered the years he spent growing up inside the house and he just wanted to erase the memories; arguments, crying, screaming and disagreements between him and his father once he was grown because the ego swollen man never tried to understand him or ever wanted to bend to make things work between them. So he chose a college that was more than halfway across the world to get away from him then he got his own house immediately he was appointed the Alpha and swore to never step foot in the house again.Fast forward to the present and here he was, going into the same house to go and persuade his father again to call off the wedding between him and Monse. He hoped they'll work it out this time.*****************So far with the conversation they were having, his father wasn't helping… he t
Dominic pulled Samantha into the laundry room and closed the door behind them as he still held onto her hand. Then he turned to her with a confused look on his face "Ferdinand told me you went out with Monse hours ago" he said and Samantha rolled her eyes ``yeah the nerve of that woman. She made me follow her to get a wedding dress for herself" she replied and Dominic chuckled before he found a spot to sit then he cleared the space next to him, putting the clothes into the hamper beside him before he turned to her and patted the spot for her to sit. She sat down beside him and turned to look at him just as he was looking at her; with so much love in his eyes. Samantha saw it, she could read him easily and it warmed her heart to know that he still loved her dearly, just like she did."Anything yet? Is any plan ready?" She asked and he looked down for a while before he met her eyes again, his lips in a thin line as he shook his head and she sighed. "We still have three days to go… toda
Samantha breathed hard as she tried to calm herself down so she won't do anything rash like going to yell in Monse's face that Dominic was hers and she should stop messing with him but she couldn't, not yet. Her life was at risk because of stupid Joe so she couldn't let her know she was the unknown mate yet… except she wanted to die in Monse's hands. Watching Monse flirt with Dominic really got to her and she couldn't help the jealousy that was stemming inside her as she fought the urge to pull Monse along with her chair away from Dominic then she would push her across the living room and watch her fall from the chair when it tips, she would hope she hits her head against the wall when she falls so she'll have an inury and will have to wear a bandage.She finally calmed herself with the help of that wicked thought down and reached for her phone that was under her pillow to call Olivia and speak to her like she always did when she was distressed. She was like a pill that always calmed
"You can't possibly expect me to marry that woman you brought into my house father" Dominic said through griited teeth as he stared daggers at his father who still smiling at him. He father came closer and placed his hands on his shoulders to calm him down but Dominic let go immediately and walked back, just the presence of his father was pissing him off so he didn't want him touching him. "Now now Dominic, I did it for your own good. You should he happy I brought the perfect woman for you" his father said sand Dominic just stared at him. He wondered why he had to have a father like him and wished it was his father that died instead of his mother; he knew he shouldn't be having such thoughts but he was sure life would be more easier for him because he didn't have any memorable memory of he and his father all through their lives, only thing his father was good at was imposing things on him and it always pissed him off because he cared about what he wanted.He scoffed at his father as h
Samantha still stood at the entrance of the house, unable to move or make any sound as Dominic's father's words rang on and on in her head. Dominic was betrothed? When did that happen? And why didn't he tell her? Or did he not know about it? All these thoughts passed through her mind like a train and she soon began to feel her head spin as she stared at the woman holding her hand out to Dominic for a handshake as she gave him a thirsty smile while introducing herself."So like I discussed with you weeks ago, I found the perfect match for you and she liked you immediately she saw your pictures, it was a match made in heaven… oh and your wedding holds in the next four days" his father added nonchalantly to the previous groundbreaking news he just shared and Samantha felt her already crushed heart turn to dust. It hurt as hell, watching his father introduce another woman that was that beautiful to him in front of her.Dominic looked at the woman called Monse before he turned to look at S
Samantha couldn't stop herself from smiling as she looked through the clothes Dominic got for her and sent through a delivery guy for her to make a choice when dressing up for the movie date. She didn't have any clothes at his place anymore ever since the whole Jace and werewolf incident when she packed up completely and left so Dominic went shopping for her with the help of his secretary too of course.She had just gotten off a call with Olivia when she told her that she was finally back with Dominic and how he came in and saved her from Joe like a knight in shiny armor and Olivia kept on squealing over the phone for almost a minute. "You would not believe how happy I am that you're back with Dominic cause fuck girl, I was ready to drag you off to his place if you spent another week not speaking to him. Who cares if he's a werewolf? He's hot and he loves you" she said and Samantha laughed "well I'm glad, I didn't give you the chance to drag me to him then" "I still can't believe th
The door to the boardroom opened and Joe rushed inside as he held his stomach in pain, from the injuries he got while fighting with Dominic the previous night. He had just gotten to his pack and he knew the first thing he had to do was report to Alpha Felix before even cleaning himself up."Was about damn time you arrived" Monse snickered and pushed her hair back before glaring at him but he just ignored her and turned to her father. She scoffed while her father, Alpha Felix questioned him "how did the mission go? Did you get any good pictures of the both of you to send to Dominic?" He asked and Joe bowed his head in shame, while figuring out the best way to tell him that the mission was a fail without infuriating him but there was no way, Alpha Felix was still going to get mad no matter how he said it; he decided to just let it out and take whatever he was going to have coming for him."I'm sorry Alpha, the mission didn't work as we planned" he said and Alpha Felix brows shot up "wha
