HARRYYelena gave Kate an unreadable look before shrugging uninterestedly. "So what brings you here?" Kate stared at her for about a minute in silence, as if waiting for something.She cocked an eyebrow. "Seriously? Do you have to be that rigid?"Kate maintained her silence until Yelena gave in."Fine," she groaned. "Follow me."She led us across the white expansive space which was devoid of anything else except the reception desk.Walking across the emptiness of the hall made the desk itself seem ominous. Yelena was dressed in a white shirt which was see-through and a black tight skirt which barely covered her ass which bounced wildly as she walked. She completed her dressing with lace stockings and finally a pair of black heels. She was an extremely erotic sight.And I couldn't help but ogle at the bouncing behind in front of me."Be careful what you wish for," Kate warned as we walked side by side."Huh? I didn't wish for anything," I replied with a confused expression.She ges
Allison's POV"Happy birthday to you!" The crowd chorused, waving their flashlights up in the air. It was the most beautiful thing I had seen. It also left a bitter taste in my mouth. My sister stood right in the middle of the ballroom, the center of attraction. She had a naive little smile on her face as everyone sent hugs, kisses, and gifts her way. "It's your day, Arya!" Mom squealed behind her. "My little girl is now grown up." "I could never have asked for a more perfect daughter." Dad added, pulling Arya for a hug. Another twinge of pain hit my chest and I pulled at my dress trying to stop the tears that welled up my eyes. I was not weak. I was not going to dissolve into tears in a room filled with werewolves who would love nothing else. They all wanted to see me crack. "Happy birthday, Arya," I murmured, holding up my gift. The ballroom went dead quiet. My parents whipped around, their eyes widening as if they just remembered that I existed too. "Oh, you're stil
Allison's POV "You don't have a say in this, Allison." Dad said stiffly. "If I have to drag you down there myself, I will." I stared at my parents in disbelief. I was worthless in their eyes, wasn't I? Only the desperate women took part in the Wolf King's bride selection. Sure he was said to be good-looking and all but he was known for his cruelty and capricious nature. He throws a bride selection ceremony every year, and ends up, not choosing brides but with a whole lot of women claiming he had slept with them. He was a promiscuous bastard and asking me to participate in that selection was more like sentencing me to death. My father knew this. He would never admit it, but I was every bit as arrogant and proud as he was. He wanted to break me. He couldn't be more wrong. "Fine!" I fumed and walked out the door. The crowd that had been eavesdropping dispersed the minute I threw the door open. I ignored them, running to my room. I had to get out of here. The next morning, I
Daniel's POVRoses.The smell of roses lingered faintly in the air. I sniffed trying to hold on to the scent that my wolf purring in delight. No, he snarled. She's gone. My eyes snapped open at those words. They met with the ceiling and when I glanced to the side, my mate was gone. I sat up, glancing at the bathroom door. She wasn't in there. I couldn't hear the sound of water running. And her scent would be much stronger than this if she were here. She wasn't. I searched around, for anything, anything at all that would assure me that she was still around. "No!" I bellowed, lunging to my feet. I must have been knocked out hard since I hadn't noticed her leaving. She was insatiable. Fuck, she was my mate. Perfect in every way. Hair that felt thick and soft against my fingers. Those beautiful eyes. Dark. Black as night. When she looked up at me in the bar, I could not look away even if I tried. And I didn't bother trying. She was gorgeous, I didn't want to take my eye
ALLISON'S POVMy car screeched to a halt as I almost hit a man riding across the road on a bike."Hey! Watch where you're going, bitch!" the man yelled as he rode away quickly."It was a green light!" I yelled back as I drove away as fast as I could, not having the time to retort to his stupidity. It was my first day at work and I was already 5 minutes late, and I still had a five-minute drive before I gets there."Today is the worst!" I hissed and banged on my steering wheel as I slowly stepped on my brakes. There was traffic ahead of me and it doesn't seem to be moving quickly.My phone rang as I cursed and honked, startling me and causing my heart to race a thousand miles per second as I felt my worst fear coming true.I reluctantly checked the caller ID and breathed a sigh of relief as it read 'Jules', my best friend."Hey, girl! Where are you?!" Jules yelled into the phone, her voice almost deafening me. "You're almost ten minutes late!""I know," I replied apprehensively. "I'm s
ALLISON'S POVI let out a groan as I allowed myself to melt into my couch. My first day at work had been nothing short of nerve-wracking. It wasn't exactly tedious but my boss turned out to be quite a demanding bastard. Jules walked in from the kitchen behind me and patted my shoulders. "It's difficult to work for your new boss, isn't it?" She chuckled. "You don't even know the beginning of it," I sighed. "He didn't even treat me like it was my first day. I had to work like I had been his secretary for at least a year. The bastard even had the guts to get mad at me when I missed a meeting that wasn't in the schedule given to me.""Well, welcome to the Phantom Corporation," she laughed as she walked over to sit beside me on the couch. "He expects us to be perfect at our jobs and barely spares us a small margin for error. I have been really close to getting fired twice already.""It's even more annoying to know that I can't rest even now," I sighed as I sat up on the couch. "I still
MERLIN'One hundred million,' I thought as I strolled to my assigned room once the auction was concluded. 'Not a bad cost for such a priceless commodity."Perplexed stares trailed me as I traversed the busy hallway. Everyone else are retreating to their rooms as well. Our purchases are to be delivered to our rooms for inspection and establishing a contract so all I had to do now was wait.I took off my knee-length jacket and placed it along my hat on the stand as I stretched and flexed my muscles. I took off my clothes and freshened up quickly before it was time for the delivery, desiring to be ready by the time it was made.***Delivery came soon after and it was everything that I expected. She had been cleaned up and dressed up to make her as presentable as a toy could be.The most interesting feature about her though, was her eyes. They held intense defiance and a strong spirit.Exactly what I wanted.We were left alone once she was chained to the bed and now it was time for me to
MERLIN"Can we talk, Arya?!" I yelled as I followed after her. "Stop being like this!""Stop following me!" She retorted as she hurried away.I couldn't help but sigh at her behaviour. Arya has been like this since Alpha Daniel's visit and his so-called warning has been the most annoying part of our lives. She wouldn't tell me, but she keeps acting like she's preparing for something big. Something that might hurt us all.Now, she's asking to leave the pack in search of Allison herself. A request I would never approve.I caught up to her as she rounded a corner and grabbed her hand."What on earth is wrong with you, Arya?" I sighed. "Why do you keep doing this?""I'm doing nothing," she retorted. "You won't let me do anything.""I won't let you put yourself in danger just because you're searching for Allison.""Then let me go!" She yelled as she yanked her hand away from mine. "Why do you keep acting like I can't take care of myself?""I didn't say so," I replied. "I'm asking you to
