*****Julia's POV****It was the weekend and I decided to go shopping with my cousin, Kira. I needed to get some new cosmetic products for myself. And also go dress shopping as well. This was something I do almost every weekend, but for now, I have a different feeling about going shopping. And that was because I just wanted to look good for a special someone. “Julia, why are you spacing out again? Sure you're okay?”“Huh? Of course, I'm okay. Just thinking about something,” I uttered with a smile.“Thinking about something or thinking about someone,” Kira said with a roll of her eyes. “Oh come on, Kira, why will you say that I'm thinking about someone?”“Like you could see your face and your expression when you said the words.”“I know there's only one person you can dare to think about right now. And if I'm not mistaken, he's none other than Alpha Theo.”“Shush! Keep it down, Kira!” I snapped at her while looking around the shopping mall. “What? Did I say something wrong?”“Why wi
*****Vanessa's POV*****I thought it would be easy to get all the work on the Villa done within a few days, but it has taken more than a week now. I was still trying to fix things and put everything back in order. Though I'm truly happy about what I was doing though. I walked into my baby's room which was almost done.I took my hands to my little bump and robbed it. “Hey little one, your room is beautiful. I can't wait to have you here.” I walked into the room and enjoyed the view of the room once again. The baby carrier was colored blue. It was specially constructed by a designer. Almost everything in the room was designed personally according to my taste. I never knew that having a kid could make me this happy. In fact, I feel like the happiest person alive, to be honest. The workers I employed are done with the room I'll be living in. Now they are working on the top floor. I just wanted everything done to my taste and have a peaceful sta
*****Vanessa's POV*****I shook my head and tears slipped out of my eyes. I can't believe what I just heard. Was this truly what everyone was saying about me over there?“Listen, Jamie, I won't deny the fact that I hated Tihana because she was just an omega who got the attention of Theo and his brothers. And I also wouldn't deny that it was my jealousy that led me into doing that which I should never have done. I understand all this. But at the same time. I plead not guilty.”“Not guilty? How do you explain your disappearance, then? You didn't even reach out to your dad. He's sick, you know.”“Sick? But the nanny never told me he was sick?”“Why did you do it, Vanessa? Did you think doing that will make Theo love you? He wouldn't, rather, he would hate you even more for what you did.”“I didn't!” I screamed at Jamie. “I don't even understand what you're on about. All of these things you're saying seemed strange to my ears. I abducted Tihana? For real? If I had gone as far as kidnappi
******Adam's POV****After the incident with the CCTV camera, there's always been one person in mind for me, and that was none other than Theo. He is the only one who is capable of tailing. But just as I had said, I need to get Tihana out of here. I wouldn't want to find her here. But where should I take her without her asking questions? I have to be discreet if I really wish to get her out of here. I need to be extra careful with all of my dealings. This is the only way out for me right now. I heard a light knock on my office door. Without being told, I knew it was Tihana since we were the only ones in the house at this time. “So come on, my love,” I said and immediately put away the footage of the house on my computer. Tihana walked in carrying a cup of coffee in hand. “Thought I should make you coffee since you'll be working late in your office today.”“My love, you shouldn't have bothered with the coffee, though. I could have easily gotten it myself.”“Sure I know you could ha
*****Theo's POV****When I saw the suit Julia had presented to me as a gift, I was delighted. I want to believe she did this as a good friend. “Julia, I'm grateful for the gift you sent to me, and I must say that I'm greatly impressed by it.”“I'm happy you like it. When I saw the suit, I was so confident that it would be best for you.”“Julia, I appreciate your kind gesture, although in some aspects, what you did might raise eyebrows.”“Huh? Raise brows. Why would they raise brows.” Julia asked with a confused expression. “Well, that's because everyone believes you should be doing this with your mate.”“You are my friend, and it's only natural I get you gifts. Please don't tell me I'm doing something wrong by sending you a gift?”“Of course not. You are not doing anything wrong. I understand that you did this out of friendship. But then I want to let you know that you don't need to get me anymore gifts. I wouldn't want anyone to talk bad about you or your reputation.”“Do not worry
******Adam's POV****The moment my dad said the words, I could tell Theo was glad dad defended him. This only got me more annoyed. He doesn't listen to me, but will always listen to Theo. Well, I guess it's because he's Alpha. “If he's right about what he did, can you at least talk to him to stop sending his men to watch my every move?”“What? Theo, why are you watching your brother's every move?” “Dad, I think he's mistaken, I never sent my men to tail him. I'm sure he's just saying that to taint me, or better still, it must have been done by someone. Besides, why will I send someone to tail you.”“Well, probably because we fought, and you wish to know if I have the Luna with me.”“What the fuck are you saying? I never once suspected you to do such. Why will you have the Luna with you? It's not like she will come with you knowing it's you.”“You're right. Adam, you must stop this madness now. Stop accusing your brother over something he didn't do. Besides, if you really suspect tha
*****Julia's POV*****I don't know what to think anymore. The fact that Theo asked me not to get him anymore gifts plagued my mind. I don't know if he was doing this to avoid what people would actually say, or if he was doing it, so I would stay away from him. I wonder which one he meant.There's no lie that the lord time I spend with him, the mire feelings I develop for him. I've tried stopping myself from feeling this way towards him, but it was like my heart has a mind of its own. It doesn't see the consequences of my actions. It was obvious that I might get hurt if I let myself fall helplessly in love with him. Theo had been nothing but nice to me that I began to question myself if I should truly have this kind of feeling toward him. I know he has a mate that is yet to be found, and he wouldn't give her up that easily. I believe the absence of his mate is the reason I developed these feelings towards him. Goodness! Since when did I become so miserable because of a man? Was this
*****Julia's POV****I waited anxiously as the guests arrived. It was finally my birthday. I had sent an invitation to Alpha Theo, and he promised that he would come. Since I was going to tell him about my feelings, I felt extremely nervous. But then, I knew that being nervous wouldn't actually help me out. I need to be brave when telling him about my feelings. Kira rushed to my side. “Julia, what are you doing here staring out the window?”“Kira, do you think he'd come?”Kira rolled her eyes and took in a deep breath. Is this why you're so anxious? Come on, Julia, he promised he was going to come, right?”“Yea he did, but at this moment, I just can't help how nervous I feel. I really want him to be here”“And he would come, goodness! You worry too much, Julia. It's not like it is your first time trying to confess your feelings to a man. So brace yourself up.”Indeed, it wasn't my first time telling a man about my feelings. However, Alpha Theo isn't just any man. He's a man I reall
