After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 20: Settling In
ALAINAFinally! I settled into the plush couch with a groan and I felt a sense of relief dawn me. “We're done! I smell like wood but it's worth it!’Finally, I had a place to call my own – a place where I could escape the chaos of my life. Well, not all but a reasonable amount of it. I still had to work with chaos himself, as his personal assistant but as long as he didn't infiltrate my personal life, I was fine.Lorraine appeared from the kitchen with a cup of orange juice in her grip and she smiled at me, her eyes shining with warmth. “Tell me about it. I have to take a shower before leaving, I can't have Lucan smelling all this sweet and whatnot.”She sat next to me and I sniffed playfully, “Oh yeah, before he wants a divorce!” That word just left a bitter taste in my mouth and it reminded me of Logan so much that I could punch the hair, or my head for making more pictures of him. “We're not even married, silly…”I shrugged, “Well, you should…”Lorraine grimaced, it was impossibl

ALAINAI pulled closer to my screen and leaned in to see if I'd seen wrong. I hadn't. USER 101: sent you a Red Beryl!Not Pigsty this time, another person? I could never get used to it no matter how hard I tried. It just seemed so off that I could sit there and communicate my being with a wide array of people and they started to pay me for it. Grace liquidized before shock and my lips parted open slightly while I gawked at the bouncing notification.“I like what you do,'' commented USER 101 himself. He didn't run away like a pigsty. “And you're beautiful too.”I returned to my seat and it felt like the world had started to float away. Was making money supposed to be this easy? Not to mention my audience had grown way larger than the last livestream. “Thanks, USER 101. That's so sweet of you!”I genuinely didn't know what else to say to them, just as I was confused about Pigsty. I just knew my heart seemed like it could burst at its seams if I wasn't careful enough! “Thank you all f
After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 22: Office Tension
ALAINAFirst day at work and I strutted to his office with my heart in my mouth. I had to deal with this, again. The anger roared in my veins and I tried to keep the straightest face as I entered and he was right there by the window, the rays of the son bore onto him and stared into busy roads.One would think they were looking at a sane man. Alpha Alexander looked like he was written by a female author. Perfect in the middle, rough at the edges. I guess I have always been on the edges. I stopped by the doorway and couldn't move in for some reason. It was unusual but I just wanted to watch him and possibly catch him doing something questionable that I could hate him for and add to the list of questionable things that he'd done.But he didn't, well— not while I was there. His hand was tucked in his pocket neatly and he tapped on one foot as though he was thinking about something. I was surprised he could think?He was clad in a white shirt and black suit trousers, though they both loo
After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 023: Party pooper
ALEXANDER Why'd she have to smell so sweet? I was running on fumes and the office wasn't quite enough to contain all that I was feeling— it was an insane sensation that I couldn't quite hold together. That dress was an innocent man's doom and a poor man's poison, an Alpha's confusion, and that was exactly where I stood at this point. I couldn't take my eyes off Alaina and I wasn't sure if she felt it too, the burning feeling that raced through my blood and I'd just love to erase those boundaries or break through them. Was it because I'd wanted her for so long? The need was killing me in all the ways that I wished it wouldn't. For once, I'd love to be different from men driven by desire but that ability had slipped from my grip— nowhere to be found on my radar. “Define lucky!” I swallowed hard, my legs plagued with the urge to take a step closer to her, just enough to lean her against that desk and— The door opened and it pissed me off. Who was ruining this crucial moment? It w

ALAINAThe words left my mouth quicker than they should, making it impossible to mask the shame that now coated my body. Alpha Alexander looked at me and I hadn't seen so much pity in a person's eyes— I was icked.It felt like hell. My heart was beating too fast. I was over Logan. I knew it. I knew I was over him but the feeling of being replaced like a piece of clothing shot pain through my veins in the worst ways possible. I clutched either side of my dress and watched the woman, Freya, smile at me.It was one that reached didn't her eyes. She cocked her head and batted her eyelids slowly like she'd been doing since she walked in. I had no idea Alpha Alexander was engaged and I had those vile thoughts of him. How much more stupid could I get? My emotions were all over the place, eluding control, too.“Why, yes she is,” Freya responded, a tinge of excitement in her voice, and she wasn't done. “It's quite ironic that love could be so strong, yet destructive. Despite how she'd rejecte
After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 025: Under the influence
ALAINAShould I do that? Like in the movies, should I agree with her to crash the wedding? I was going out of my mind here and it felt like the alcohol had slowly started to take effect.I just sat there, thinking of all the possible ways I could hurt Logan's feelings as much as I was hurting! It was torturous. I managed a smile and turned to Lorraine, my hand still fixed inside my hair as though I was about to tear it out. “That'll mean I care. I don't care, I just wish he'd burn in hell. All of them!”I hissed and Lorrie guffawed. “Including Alpha Alexander?” She asked in a teasing tone and I scowled, remembering how utterly disrespectful our conversation had been.“Including him and his goody two shoes Luna, they could burn for all I care!” I took another sip of the whiskey. Alcohol was never a go-to for me, especially as I'd spent my entire married life babysitting a man that was cursed to drink his life away.My head was banging and the speakers weren't helping. “What if he's…jus
After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 26: Little Miss Whiskey
ALEXANDER No classy man would want to meet up at a bar, but not Damon. And irrespective of how much disgust I abhorred for his family, this business was important. I couldn't back out of it even if I tried. “We're here,” Leo announced and a sigh ripped out from my lips. I pecked through the window and my eyes fell on the twinkling lights of the place. I hadn't been in a bar in years and suddenly, I had to because of business, and it was unavoidable. The fact that Freya was his sister couldn't stop me from seeing him. This meeting was for the good of RavenThorn and my pack, so how could I miss it? I loosened my tie completely, another retired sigh slipping from my lips. “Wait here. I'll be back.” I opened the door and stepped out. This was torture, but according to the enigmatic individual I was meeting today, he'd rather die than step foot into the packhouse. I wasn't at the packhouse anymore so there wasn't much to say about that. And it was better to meet Damon at night, that
After Divorce, I Became A Top Streamer! 027: The Babysitter
ALEXANDER“Are you the grim reaper?” I kept my eyes on her from the rearview mirror as she sat up. Her eyes were still partially closed and she rested against the seat like there wasn't a single iota of life inside of her.“That would mean you're dead,” I responded tersely, trying to keep my eyes on the road. The fact that she was in the same car as me was distracting enough.The entire vehicle had been vandalized by her scent and it killed me, slowly, sweetly. I had to maintain all modesty and make sure I got her home safely. “Am…I dead?” She asked again, then immediately placed her hands over her mouth. “Stop the car! I can't die like this. I have to tell him something!”Was this what everyone who'd seen Alaina drunk had to go through or was I special enough to see this side of her? I'd stick with the delusion. After all, it didn't hurt anymore. A small peal of laughter slipped from my lips. “Him?” I raised my brow. “Who?”She hiccuped again and threw her head back. It was no dou
