Reynolds' POV."It's quite late, and I'd prefer to take you home," I suggested. In that instant, her gaze abruptly shifted toward me, her eyes widening in a mix of shock and surprise, as if the notion had caught her off guard."I... I just..." she stammered, briefly biting her lower lip, and after a moment, she finally gathered herself and asserted."I don't believe it's the right thing to do, Alpha Reynolds! You have a Luna, and I'm merely your assistant. Being seen together consistently will undoubtedly raise questions!" She expressed her concerns, but I remained steadfast, unwilling to back down. The determination in my eyes mirrored my conviction as I prepared to address her reservations."I don't mind, Kayla. It's simply a gesture of kindness, just dropping you off," I tried to explain, hoping to ease her reservations. However, she remained steadfast, unwilling to join me despite my efforts to clarify her thoughts.Observing others emerging from the hall, she took a deliberate
Kayla's POV. His eyes darted towards me relentlessly, stealing glances with every passing second as he skillfully drove the car. Truth be told, a growing unease enveloped me in the claustrophobic confines of his presence, an evident fear gnawing at the edges of my composure. The rhythmic hum of the engine echoed my racing heartbeat, amplifying the tension that hung thick in the air. I clenched my fist, the fabric of my dress crumpling beneath the force, desperately attempting to maintain composure. I willed myself to stand strong, praying that Alpha Reynolds would cease his relentless gaze. Yet, in the depths of my hopeful musings, a stark reality emerged; who was I kidding? His eyes continued their stealthy dance, stealing glances that intensified the internal struggle. Questions swirled in my mind like a tempest, demanding answers to the reason for his persistent stare at me. The pretence of composure shattered within me, the weight of acting ignorant becoming unbeara
Kayla's POV."Kayla, you should..." Alpha Reynolds was going to say, but instantly, my instincts kicked in, and I found myself reacting swiftly to his words."I think I'll be on my way now! Thank you so much for the ride, Alpha!" I bowed my head immediately, and turning around, I opened the door and ran out of the car before he could utter another word to me.I noticed he climbed out of his car to chase after me, but I was already far gone before he could stop me. I burst into the house, and instantly, darkness engulfed me instantly. Slamming the door shut, I leaned against it, my chest rising and falling as I struggled to catch my breath. A mix of shock and amazement filled me, leaving me on the edge of anticipation for what had just transpired."What just happened?" My eyes bulged out as I tried to get a hold of myself. I was still in a state of self-reflection when, unexpectedly, the lights came on and his voice followed. "What are you doing?""Ahhh!" With a sudden jolt, I let o
Kayla's POV."Stay focused, Kayla... no matter what. The Alpha wants nothing but to use you!" I declared as I tried reminding myself about what had happened last night in the car.Without hesitation, I grabbed my bag, and with my grip tightening on the strap, I exited the room and headed for the exit of the house.Willson went to work because he had to sign an important contract, and I totally understood why.Despite the passage of time, it remained unmistakable in his tone that he harboured lingering irritation towards me for the events that happened between Alpha Reynolds and myself the previous night.Getting to the door, I swiftly left the house, locked the door, and stopped a cab. As I embarked on my journey to the company, a knot of anxiety and fear intertwined with a blend of excitement surged through my veins, leaving me perplexed about the underlying reasons behind these intense emotions.A sudden surge of eagerness enveloped me as the thought of seeing Alpha Reynolds crosse
Kayla's POV."Where else, Kayla? I am taking you to the hospital! I can't stand the thought of my assistant being down with a fever!" He asserted possessively as his grip on my hand tightened, making me get so stunned for a split second.If there was anything I was expecting, it definitely wasn't the scene of Alpha Reynolds storming into my office to drag me out of it like he owned me.Like Ava never existed and that we've been in love for a long time now.Without a second glance at me, he turned his stare towards the exit of the office, and instantly, he dragged me out of the office.As we headed for the exit of the company, I couldn't help but get so embarrassed and silently bullied too at the judgmental sight of everyone that saw Alpha Reynolds holding my hand.I swallowed anxiously as I stared back at them, but not for too long because, trust me, it was horrifying and scary.It felt as though I had claimed their Alpha to myself, and they weren't going to get him from me anymore w
Kayla's POV. "Who are you?" I questioned, my fist tightly clenched, my gaze fixated on her from where I stood near the door. The smirk lingering on her lips spoke volumes, confirming a singular truth; she was not just a stranger; she was unmistakably my enemy, and the air crackled with tension as I awaited an answer. "Why don't you come sit, and I'll tell you exactly who I am?" She sneered, producing a syringe. As she scrutinised it, I couldn't help but nervously swallow, sensing an impending revelation that left me on edge. She paused momentarily, redirecting her gaze towards me. Another smile crept across her face, but this time, it bore a vicious edge. The suspense hung in the air, intensifying the tension in the room. "Don't test my patience, Kayla... Take a seat while I handle the Alpha's secret lover!" She declared abruptly, causing an immediate furrow in my brows as I grappled with the sudden statement. "And what is that supposed to mean?" I inquired, taking a tentati
Reynolds' POV.Witnessing Kayla in the clutches of another man, another werewolf, suddenly triggered an overwhelming surge of anger, fury, and bitterness within me.How the fuck was she being held by someone else when I was standing before them? How the fuck could I just let another man take away the one person my heart races for because he claims he was her friend?Right from the first day I met Willson, I disliked him, and letting him control Kayla was never going to happen.In a swift motion, I reached for Kayla's wrist, pulling her back to myself. She drew closer, her hand resting on my chest, and her eyes locked intensely onto mine. In that moment, a thrilling possessiveness surged, creating a charged atmosphere between us.Locking eyes, I couldn't ignore it: the burning intensity in her gaze, fueled by a desire and rage to possess me as well.But I wasn't sure at this point if it was genuine or if I was just hallucinating."Let her go now, Alpha!" Willson's voice suddenly inte
Reynolds' POV."Don't push this discussion any further, Mr. Willson!" I warned as my eyes gazed at him, and just then, I saw it in his eyes.It was obvious that he had given up, and that was what I wanted all along. For him to quit acting so childish and let me have the one I needed and cherished so much.Besides, there was no way I could let anything happen to Kayla, not when I was deemed to just protect her and keep her safe."That's better!" I scoffed as my grip on Kayla's wrist tightened, and instantly, I dragged and pulled her away from Willson's sight.He was furious, but he dared not push any further, just as I had warned him. It was best if he just stayed still without coming after Kayla anymore.We left the hospital, and as we reached my car, I opened the door for Kayla and let her get in. She seemed chilly and didn't utter a word to me.I wasn't sure what she was thinking about, but my inner wolf made me realise that it must have been something that Willson had said inside t
KAYLA'S POV."She's pregnant!" the physicians exclaimed as Reynold batted his eyelashes in my direction, a twisted expression on his face as he approached."She's what again? You had better be sure of your words." He issued a warning, and the doctors nodded and smiled."This is my job, and I really do assure you that not a single mistake would happen from my end, so yes, I know what I'm saying, and Miss Kayla here is pregnant." The motor replied once more, and I sat transfixed in my chair, unsure what to say."Are we having a baby?." Reynold inquired as he walked closer to him, his face devoid of expression, which disturbed me."Kayla! Did you hear that? We're having a baby!" He roared again, this time flooded all over me, and a sigh from my lips as he drew me into a warm hit, dropping on his feet, pulling closer to my tummy, and placing a peck there."I'll leave you two now to your privacy, but it is important that she needs treatments, and certain tests also need to be run." The doc
ALPHA REYNOLDS' POV."What do you mean by that?." I inquired, drawing closer to her as every conceivable wave of panic overtook me. Listening to her riles me up; as much as I doubted Ava's ability to be a mother, I also doubted her as someone and something else entirely."Why are you so surprised?! I would never have given a fuck about having children; you saw it with Jackson, and I was never pregnant either, and I guarantee you, there are things you can do, but you will never get the truth out of me." Ava explainedAs I approached her, I heard a high-pitched noise in my head."Oh, you had better start talking now; you think I'd give two fucks about you? After all of these sicknesses, did you pull a stunt? I asked, trying so hard to keep my rose buried, and it broke me down. "All I need is your word, and I will tell you everything, but first you have to promise I will not be harmed in any way."/I was desperate, but it still looked like a deception to me. Everything about her and the
ALPHA REYNOLDS' POV."Oh you poor thing, I am sorry. I should have been with you, stayed by your side. I'm sorry, Kayla. If you can hear me, then I want you to know that I am sorry for having the slightest doubt that you could have gone away on your own accord"" I'm sorry for making myself into a bloody, ungrateful person, a maniac at that. I'm sorry for not putting in more effort to find you. I am sorry for every fucked up thing that had happened."I wrapped my arms firmly around hers, not sure I could keep up anymore; I was insanely in love with her; I knew it the moment she left, the minute I held the letter in my hands, that I couldn't exist without her; I knew it the moment I cast my gaze over her, that nothing else mattered except her, and after hearing what Wilson had to say.I was determined to hold her in high regard; perhaps Wilson was spiteful and intended to get under my skin, but that didn't change the fact that what he said was nothing but the blatant truth, which left
ALPHA REYNOLDS' POV.As I felt sick to my nerves, a disgusted expression spread across my face."We can explain; it's not what you think to calm down Reynolds," she said, her voice breaking as she said."Explain what!" You bloody ingrate, you bounce around, pretending like I've been the worst to you, and you've got the bloody nerve to come up here and let yourself get fucked. Are you fucking crazy?""What the fuck is wrong with you?" I inquired as she shook with terror; the more she maintained her fake attitudes, the more enraged I became. I despise liars, cheaters, and backstabbers."I know you've been up to no good all along, so how about we do this the bloody easy way? Now tell me, where the hell is Kayla?" I asked, enraged.I was indignant and suspicious because of the way she spoke and acted throughout, yet all I had in my thoughts were ideas. With her, I knew I had to play smartly."I don't know what you are talking about." She lied, exactly like I had expected her to. I glanced
REYNOLDS' POV.I was no longer sure, what it I needed to day or do, I lit on the end again, free in a longer puff, it had been two weeks since Kayla had gone missing, nothing had been found so far, no traces on the men or maybe either, it turned out the man had spotted the blind suits perfectly well, his face was hidden.The registered plate numbers were all fake, but then again were safe, to be honest, that was all I needed, but for Kayla, it ruined me each minute as it passed by, nothing was working, nothing was gelling out, and it made me feel utterly useless.Like I had not mattered at all, seeing hid she had left, without dashing goodbye, left a more, my search for her had also proved to be futile, as receiving the pain for the second time, I had been forced to go through it when was kidnapped, or even had left with Kayla and I searched for her,How was it that I could find anything and everything from everyone else but I could not search to find people who mattered to me? I was
REYNOLDS' POV.Anger brewed in me for the second time yet again, Possibly, what was the whole talk about, my kid getting into trouble from someone else and I had bloody done nothing about it, I had remained stuck up and watched how she got herself into trouble, how much of a fucking dumb ass was I really…“ I need you to tell me, how many times has this happened to you?” I asked and she lifted her palms again, her mouth seeming surprised that she had told me about it out of mistake.And that made me even more worried, that something as such had happened and I bore no knowledge about it.“I need answers now! I have to know the truth, how many times have you been taken against your will?” I asked, my voice laced with rage, but that had not stopped me from thinking of a single thing, I knew what I wanted to know and it kept getting on my ears.“I promised Kayla I would not say a thing.” there it was, the question that made me by the edge, what had bloody transpired that she had wanted t
REYNOLDS' POV.I ran as fast as I could down the stairs and headed straight up for the entrance. There she was waiting with a smile on her face.“my little princess,” I called out towards her fondly, tucked her by my side and lifted her into the air,“What is this really about?” I asked Luke with a frown, he seemed a bit bothered and gestured for us to walk up the stairs.“Let's head on to my room. we'll talk there.” Luke responded, although I knew I wanted an immediate explanation, a sensible one it still has not fared out as I wanted it to do, I never thought of bringing anything or anyone who was a problem. but it dealt me a huge blow when it got down to me, shattered all veins in me when I got a call from the school saying Adora was still up and no one came for her.“stay here okay?” I'll get a maid to attend to you “ I spoke to her.“Where is Kayla? She was to pick me and Kayla never forgets about me like mommy does.” I gave her a wide smile and it warmed my heart that Finally,
AVA'S POV.Anger brewed the more within me as I pushed open the door, I knew they were together, I found out the truth already, I knew about their affair, but when I found out she sounded all peaceful and innocent like she was never going to repeat it, she had begged for a chance at the life of her child, she had pleaded with me for two weeks, saying she wanted to be with her child…Rather than that, she had gotten herself winded back up with Reynolds, and just when I thought I was the bad person, it turned out she was even more sneaky of a bitch than I was…She was so fucked up, totally crazy and she had gotten the guts the mind, the fucking audacity to speak in such manners to me. Was she fucking kidding me?.The words made me bitter or blew me off the trail, I could not help it as I thought back to the spot.“get, the fuck! Away from her!.” I yelled at the top of my lungs as Reynold moved away from the end, fury building up continuously in me, oh they had outdone themselves, tested
REYNOLDS' POV.Fuck…. I was hard on her, all the way, it was insane. I had such immediate sexual attraction just after some talks and feasting my eyes over her.I ran my tongue over my lower lips as I pulled closer towards her.Her eyes trailed at my full length, I saw the glint in her eyes, she was crazy for it, she wanted it, I knew it, slowly she reached for me, my dick twitched the more from excitement,It was pleasant for me. The feeling.The warmth flowed through me, down to the cap as blood surged towards the point, causing me to be more erect than I was….. I wanted her.She climbed on her knees, propped her body up and laid her hands firmly on my butt, pulled me closer while she stared at me with an even brighter glint.“what?” I asked her slowly as a wicked smile formed against her lips.She tugged hard at my butt, pulled me closer and ran her tongue slowly over the cap of my cock leaving me somewhat shivery. I loved how intense the feeling I got was.Slowly, carefully she pu
