Daisy's POVI cringed and took an involuntary step backward,"w..w..work r.. right..h...here..in...y..your... house?" I stuttered, staring from him to his house, he torments me in school, barges into my room whenever he feels like it, made me get fired in my previous workplace and beat my colleague there to a pulp and now he brought me to work in his house, that'll definitely be the end of me, his eyes narrowed as he stared at me, he took two strides and stood right in front of me, "I thought you wanted to work", I stared at him again and then at his house,"Yea...b..but not here in your house""Where then?" He asked, he sounded pissed already and God knows that's the last thing I needed right now,"A... any place, where I can work and earn", he suddenly did the unexpected, he threw his head back and laughed out loud, this is the first time that I have heard him laugh, my eyes widened in surprise, did Mr grumpy just laughed? And I was the one who made him laugh? I suddenly felt trepid
Aires'POVI had watched as she had picked up the picture from the ground, it was a picture I made of my dad and framed it, back when I was still pinning for his affection but on that day that he punished me in the red room, I had walked into my room and looked at the picture with loathe and had turned its face down on my table, I hadn't bothered facing it back up and when Daisy's hand had accidentally hit it on the table and it fell on the ground with a crash, I felt indifferent about it, once upon a time, I would have been so mad at anyone who dares go close to my dad's photo but now, even after he had changed, I still remain skeptical about him, what bothered me is how Daisy reacted when she saw the person on the photograph, she went completely white as a sheet that for a moment, I thought she would pass out,"Are you okay?" I asked worriedly and took another step toward her but she quickly moved backward, her big liquid eyes stared at me for a moment, and the huge hurt I saw there
Aires'POV I heard the argument as soon as I entered the house, as usual, it was coming from Dad's room, he and mum must be at it again but it seems to me that whatever their problem is this time around is huge,"I won't let you use that boy at your whim, I know there must be a reason for your recent show of affection, all I'm asking is to leave him alone and out of any of your plans", my mum's tone held a bit of both pleading and warning,"I'll do whatever I damn well pleased with him, he is a nobody to me and that rascal even came to my office to challenge me, he will definitely pay for that""If you so much as touch a strand of hair on his head, I'll...""You'll what? You can't even walk", my mum was silent for a while and I knew that Dad has struck a sensitive chord, I clenched my fist, that monster, to think that I almost thought he has changed, I made to go up the stairs towards their room but my dad's next word stopped me on my track,"Aires is my revenge tool and I am going to
Daisy's POV I saw him coming out of his office immediately we got there, I couldn't move anymore, I stood still at the entrance of his company, and watched as Aires walked up to him, I studied him from afar, he looks older than I could remember him but he's still handsome, although, Aires bore no resemblance to him, Aires is more or less on his own as he bore no facial resemblance to either his mum or dad, I find that odd a bit but I'm in no position to say who he should resemble, my dad looked up as Aires got closer to him, something flicked in his eyes but it was masked up so quickly that if I hadn't been observing him, I wouldn't have noticed that expression, he smiled at Aires still oblivious of my presence, it seemed to me that his smile didn't quite reach his eyes, perhaps, the state of his wife is taking a huge toil on him, he bent and whispered something into Aires ear and although, I couldn't see Aires expression because his back was turned against me, I noticed that his sho
Daisy's POVI sat in class absent-minded, the events of the past few days weighed heavily on my mind, I felt someone tap me and I turned to see Desiree looking at me with concern, "are you alright?" I nodded, "why shouldn't I be?" "The class teacher has called you for more than three times but got no response from you", she explained, that was when I turned round to see all eyes on me, Celine snickered maliciously,"Er...I... I'm sorry ma'am, I didn't hear you call my name", I quickly apologized to the teacher who was standing with arms folded across her chest and staring at me,"To my office, now", she ordered as she carried her materials and left the class, damn, now, I'm in for it, slowly, I stood up and followed her,"You can have your seat", I gingerly sat down in the only available seat in the office which is across from her,"Can you tell me what's going on with you?", She asked, removing her glasses and placing them on the table"Nothing, I am fine", I mumbled and she looked
Daisy's POVIt's been weeks since we were given the project, yet, I still do not know what we are asked to do, the last day of submission was yesterday and since I didn't do the project, it means I have blown my chance of graduating, I was arranging my books in my locker when the teacher entered, my heart skipped a beat, I wonder what excuse I'll give her for not doing the project she gave to me,"Daisy, I'm impressed by your work", she said, beaming at me, I blinked a few times in confusion,"You finished your project right on time and right now, all you have to do is to pass the class test and then, you'll be qualified to graduate".What is she talking about? I didn't do any project, as a matter of fact, I don't even know the topic of the project, I forced a smile as I murmured, "thank you".I'll have to see Aires later to get an explanation of what is going on.**I studied hard for my test and each day, Aires comes into my room through the window and help me study, I was never th
Daisy's POVI paced nervously in my room and paused when I caught sight of my reflection in the mirror, I look tense but beautiful in the long princess ball gown that Aires had sent for me, today is the night of our prom and he will make sure that I attend as his date, I sighed, my gaze went to my table clock, it's nine O'clock already, the party was supposed to start seven O'Clock, he's two hours late, he has never been late to an appointment before, what's keeping him? Perhaps he change his mind about taking a geek as his date, I waited some more, still, no sign of him, I dialed his number, it rang but he didn't bother to pick up, it was almost midnight, I guess he changed his mind then, disappointed, I undressed and not bothering to remove my makeup, I sank on my bed and drifted off to sleep.I felt his presence as soon as he came in, slowly, my eyes drifted open, he was a silhouette against the bright light of my room, I was under my duvet but I was still conscious that I am wear
Daisy's POV"Can't you see? You're such a fool" a customer yelled as I tripped against his foot and fell on my ass.I stared at the customer and knew that he did it on purpose, he is our regular customer who had a love interest in me, he was nice to me until I firmly turned down his love offer, ever since, then, he became nasty and I always try my best to stay away from him, I mean, customers cannot be spoken to anyhow or I just might lose my job"Watch where you're going Daisy", Joe, the manager hollered angrily at me, "can't you do anything right?" He yelled as he glared furiously at me"I... I'm sorry", I managed to murmur as I gritted my teeth and stood up and dusted myself. It's always been like this, some customers can be so nasty But I don't have a choice but to put up with it, this is the job that I am using to put food on my table for the past two years since I entered college, the scholarship I was given into college only cover my college fees and nothing else. It's been two
Aires'POVOne moment, I was about to pronounce Daisy as the girl I love and then, suddenly, I felt intense hotness running through my bloodstream, and painful sensations shot through my nerves, my head felt like it was about to split open and my body felt like there is a giant monster inside of me that is about to show itself, my muscles rippled painfully and all of a sudden, I could hear everything and everyone, the noise was amplified, sending shooting pains into my brain, I could smell everything all at once but in the midst of all my pain, there is just one thing that my brain was able to recognize, it was a very sweet smell and I feel like devouring whatsoever has such smell, I followed traced the direction of the smell and realized that it was coming from Daisy, I had the sudden urge to take her right there and then, to claim her deeply and possess every inch of her being, the word "mate" chanted in my head, whatever that means."What's going on? What's happening to me?" I screa
Aires'POVI stopped at the front of a boutique/salon and asked her to go in while I lean in my car to wait for her.I had already made arrangements earlier for Daisy to be dressed up like a queen, today, I will announce my love for her to the world, she is the only woman I have ever loved and will be the only woman in my life, she is all mine, she would have been mine long ago but my stupidity had kept us apart and instead of loving her, I had bullied her and made her cry while believing a lie, but even then, in my heart, I loved her but right now, all I'll do is show her how much she means to me, I might not be good in display of emotions but I'll try.I saw the door open and I turned to see her come out of the salon and for a moment, I forgot to breathe, she looked so breathtaking, she is no longer the lanky high school kid I used to know, she held my gaze as she slowly walked towards where I am standing,"H...h...how do I look?" She asked, looking unsure and fidgety.My voice was g
Daisy's POV"You're pregnant""What!!!" My eyes bulged as I stared at the nurse in front of me, her smile was uncertain as if she wasn't too sure whether to congratulate me or not"Your test result shows that you are pregnant, three weeks have gone already, the nausea, fatigue, and fever you have been feeling is as a result of this". I stared at the nurse standing in front of me, I was rendered speechless by this news, pregnant? No, how can I be pregnant at eighteen? What will happen to my college? My scholarship, I feel so scared right now and it must have reflected on my face because the nurse stared at me with pity and patted my shoulders before walking away.This has to be a dream, for the past weeks, I have been feeling sick, nausea at every slightest smell, and fatigued almost all the time that I even got shouted at by my boss, I thought it was just a flu and will be fine, but when the week past by and it still does not look like I'll be fine soon, I decided to visit the hospita
Author's POVDylan swore at the sight before him, their attackers were already in their territory and many of his men lay dead on the floor. His eyes caught Ariana, wielding a sword alongside her sister Samantha, for a flitting moment, he remembered one occasion where she had to wield a sword, several years ago and on that fateful day, they had lost their son and until today, he hasn't been able to find him. Furious, he charged into the battle, teeth bared, and claws sharper than any sword, ripping out hearts and squashing them beneath his feet, he is the fastest of all werewolves and no one can match his speed, the only werewolf who has received a boon from the moon goddess and that way, he can change his form at will, he can do things that no other werewolf can hence, other packs were always afraid to fight with him and that's why he was at first surprised when Damien had linked him that they were under attack. He is the only werewolf who is always tried and tested by what he holds
Aires'POV"Home" was the word that came to mind immediately my lips found hers, it's been two long years since I tasted her, two long years since I held her in my arms, I felt her hands on my chest before she pushed me away,"Y...you can't just jump out from nowhere and start kissing me, how did you know where I live?"I smirked, if only she know that I know everything about her in these past two years, I had stayed out of sight but not out of mind, I simply couldn't get over her, I had wanted to stay away from her when Celine had revealed her innocence to me, I didn't want to be a pain in the ass anymore, didn't want to be a bother, so I stayed away from her but it was so damn hard, it felt as if I was suffocating in life, I had applied in the same college as her and even had to change my college to another, just to stay away but what I couldn't do was to stop the obsessiveness of wanting to know everything about her, I hired someone, Brittany, to keep an eye on her and that person i
