Daisy POVYes, you can call me a fool I don't care, what's most important is that Bella is safe from the shackles of marriage. Now I have to find a way to come out of the problem I put myself in.I went to check on my mother in the hospital, but she was still unconscious. She can only be put on a drip. The doctor told me that no surgery could be done on her until she had regained consciousness. My mother looked dead in the hospital bed she was lying on, but I kept hoping that she would come back to me healthy.As I walk down the hallway of the hospital heading outside, I try not to look too sad, like someone who has all the problems of the world on her shoulder, but the constant reminder of what is awaiting me keeps bothering my mind. I keep thinking of a way to bypass this marriage without putting myself or Bella in a mess.I grunt loudly when I suddenly collide with someone and that was when I knew I wasn't even focused on my way or maybe the person wasn't looking straight ahead too
Daisy POV“Ma, the company is on fire and our system has been hacked into.”“Nooo,” I screamed and jerked up from my sleep, and like a drunkard, I rubbed my sleeping eyes, scrutinized my surroundings, and realized that I was still lying on my bed. Today is Monday and when I check the time it's 7:30 am. I have just 30 minutes to prepare and get to King's Company, where I have been offered a job.Well, you must be wondering why I have to work when I own a company, but something terrible happened.Something I didn't see coming, no one saw it.It wasn't a dream. This was the news I received five days ago, a day after I left my father and told him I wouldn't marry the man he arranged for me. I was called very early the following day by my secretary that my fashion company caught fire and everything burnt down. To worsen the case, the company's financial account was hacked into and all the money was wiped out, so now I'm back to nothing.It's like the Devil was waiting for me at a corner t
Asher POV“Sir… I…please.” She stammered on her words, unable to make meaningful sentences.My eyes scrutinized her from head to toe. She was dressed in an office skirt that stopped at her knees and a white long-sleeve shirt, and her long blonde hair was packed in a bun, revealing her fair neck. She was wearing high heels and overall, she looked adorable and decent.For the first time in a very long time, my wolf was reacting sexually to the presence of a woman, my wolf was howling in my head begging to be set free, begging to be closer to her, but I shut Zander, my wolf off before he could take control and make me do things I never want to.But I can't take the images of five years ago off my mind, maybe because I was too indebted to it or maybe because she was the only woman I have had sex with over the years, but one thing is sure, she's a slut.“Are you married?” I suddenly asked, breaking the silence that surrounded us, and she stared at me with those big eyes, blinking them repe
Daisy POV Mommy, why do we have to stay with Aunty Stella for the time being?" Juniper asked, clinging next to me. "Don't leave us, Mommy." The rest join her. I shook my head and said "Of course not. I would never leave you guys. The four of you are my world." I draw them closer to myself and hug them trying not to cry miserably. They shouldn't face the same pain as me. "Then stay, Mommy." "I'm sorry baby but I have to go for a business trip and when everything is settled I will come get you guys." "Are you going to miss our presentation?” Janice asked, her voice dried and sad. "I will attend that no matter what. You all know I love you right?" "And we love you too Mommy." They all said. I can't take them with me. I don't want my children near Asher. They have a striking resemblance to him; he shouldn't set eyes on them. Something inside me is struggling for breath, smothering in emptiness, and dying slowly. Maybe it’s been dead for a long time, but I’m only noticing it
Daisy POV Suddenly, he stopped the car and he parked on the roadside. He removed his seat belt and in a second he loomed over me like a panther and began to kiss me fiercely. It was so harsh and brutal that I found it difficult to breathe. Nichole, this is all her plan. The wine she offered made me feel this way. Horny, drunk, and at the same time weak. “If the Alpha sees you tomorrow, he's going to break off the marriage.” Now I finally remembered Nichole's last words to me as she pushed me into the car. This is all planned. They asked me to come over for a drink so they could set me up. A cry escaped my lips and I felt the hot liquid burn my skin as it dripped down my cheeks, making me tremble as his hand came in contact with my body. No, I can't let him have his way. I need to fight with all my strength. I can't let Nichole win me on this. “Stay calm and don't even try to fight back. The more you fight, the harder the drink will work, so just stay calm. I don't want to fuck
Daisy POV Lights hit my eyes and I grimace as my eyes flutter open. Gosh, why is the light so much? “Someone, please turn off the lighttttt.” I drooled on my words, but I quickly sprang off from my bed staring at my diamond wedding ring, then the flash of what happened last night hit me. And when I look around me, it's different. I'm no longer inside the cottage, I'm back in Asher's mansion, but something is off. I'm inside his room and this wasn't the clothes I was wearing last night. “Oh God, what happened?” I clasped my hand around my mouth when I also remembered how horny and drunk I was last night and…and… “Argh,” I screamed and buried my head on the pillow. I kissed him, but I don't remember what happened after that. Did Asher take off my clothes, did we…? The sound of rushing water came from the bathroom, and I was startled and alert. I subconsciously glanced in the direction of the bathroom, and through the frosted glass, I saw a tall and slender body, he was standing u
Daisy Pov His brow puckered in surprise and after staring at me for quite a while, he finally stepped aside for me to walk in. The moment I walked in, the cozy, dark room welcomed me. The walls are covered in rich, velvet fabric, and the floor is carpeted in soft, plush material. The furniture is elegant and expensive-looking, and is bigger than mine. There's a sense of decadence and comfort in the air. While I was still studying the room, Asher sat on the bed, and in a second he pulled off his shirt, revealing a werewolf tattoo on his chest that ran down his perfectly shaped abs. “Get on the bed.” “What! No, what are you trying to do?” I flew a hand over my chest as I felt a shiver run down my spine, a tingling sensation that spread like wildfire when I imagined myself entangled in this big bed with him… No. I shook my head. He stood up from his bed and folded his arm on his chest, his entire focus on me, “Didn't you say today is our honeymoon, and we need to consummate our weddi
Daisy POVAsher was sitting on my couch with his legs crossed. He looked like he was so pleased to see me naked. I almost lost my footing trying to grab a towel as I wrapped it around my waist.“What are you doing here? Go Out!” I screamed at him, pointing a finger at the door, but he wasn't a bit moved by my words.How did he get in here without me knowing?Is there anything that he's not good at?He stared at me for a while with a smile on his face as if he were enjoying the show. “Aren't you happy to see me?” His face dropped in disappointment.“You are not entitled to barge into my room whenever you want, please respect my privacy.”“This is my house and you're my wife. I don't need permission to do whatever I want, do I?” His eyes traveled to my body, scanning every part of it, and then he relaxed properly on the bed as if enjoying the show.I took in a deep breath before responding, “Please leave.” My voice was gentle, so I expected him to kindly obey, but when it comes to Asher
Daisy POVEverything seemed to go back to normal. But not just normal - Asher was able to show me how much he loved me in every possible way, at every opportunity. And now, I had grown accustomed to being loved by him, and I couldn't imagine my life without him.Nicole was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labor, while her mother, who was also an acquaintance, was sentenced to fifteen years in prison. My father came to beg my Mom and me and we forgave him. He retired from being the Alpha of our pack and Nathan took over while I was ordained the Luna of the seven packs in Arizona and the only beloved wife of Asher the Alpha King.Asher later told me that I was the girl who saved him fifteen years ago that Nicole was impersonating. At first, I couldn't believe it because I have no memories of fifteen years ago, but my mother told me stories of what happened.She explained that I had gone missing as a child, after the death of my brother, who had drowned in the pool. It was then t
Asher POVI raised my head from the pillow, eyes blinking against the morning light that streamed through the window. A yawn escaped my mouth as I stretched my arms and legs, feeling the impact of the night's make-out with her. Slowly, I sat up, my hair disheveled and there I was still heavy with sleep. But when I noticed the presence of the slender woman who was sleeping next to me, I had to pause whatever was going through my mind as I stared at her in awe, disbelief visible in my eyes.How could I not know?How could I not know that the woman right under my nose was my beloved wife, Daisy?Gently enough not to cause her to wake up, I rolled down the devout covering her chest up to confirm what I saw last night. The mark was still there, on her right breast, I was sure she was the one. This was the only thing I used to recognize her five years ago.“She's Daisy.’ That voice whispered in my head again, and the funniest, most unbelievable thing was that she was my mate.What is going
Daisy POVAsher had been everywhere around me. These days he closes early from work just to watch me with the kids, and at times he joins our conversation and plays with us. For a moment, we look like the perfect happy family that we were supposed to be, but I keep reminding myself that this isn't real.I was sure that he regretted everything he had done in the past, especially to me, and I doubted if he would ever stop blaming himself and hating himself. He always stays alone, if he is not reading in the room most of the time lost in thoughts and when I manage to watch him sleep in the afternoon during weekends he always has tears in his eyes. He always speaks in his dream like he was trying to reach out to me.And he has never relented in his search for me.At times, I wish I could just go up to him and tell him not to worry that I'm here with him, but I'm holding myself from doing that.Asher had dropped me off in front of my house as usual, but when I attempted to drop from his ca
Daisy POVAfter spending enough time with the children I was later told that evening that Asher needed to see me.I stood at the front of his library room, my heart beating harder against my chest as I wondered what would happen should I see Asher again.Would he recognize me or not?The guard who escorted me here knocked on the door and Asher answered him from inside.“The lady is here, sir.”“Let her in.” When I heard his voice my body went still for a moment as I tried to compose myself together so I wouldn't break down before him.“I'm now Ria, not Daisy,” I muttered to myself to bring back my courage and not act clumsy before him.As I walked into the room, the only sound was the soft whoosh of the door closing behind me. My eyes were drawn to Asher, who sat at a table, his head buried in a book. His hair was a mess, sticking up in all directions, and his face looked pale and drawn. He seemed to have lost weight since I'd last seen him. He didn't even look up from his book as I
Daisy POVI wonder how my children will feel should they see me again.Would they be curious or happy? I asked myself as I put extra work into my makeup. I want Asher to see me and be moved by my beauty. My wolf was getting excited for today's journey too. I don't even know if I would be able to keep the truth away from my children.When I got out of my car in the big gigantic compound of the Alpha King I couldn't help but remember the memories this place holds both the happy ones and even the heartbroken ones.It was hard to believe that people lived here. It was eerily quiet, like a graveyard. The place felt deserted, as though no one was home.I was told to remain outside so they could inform someone of my presence and as I waited deep inside me I wished I could be able to see Asher at this moment. I just needed to see his face, just for a while just a little bit I have missed him so much. I didn't know I loved this man so much until I was away from him.“Ma'am you can go in, madam
Daisy POVMy legs, my limbs, my entire body were all weak and unable to carry me when I tried to drive back home. I had to call Tiana to drive me back home because the revelation of what Nichole had been doing behind my back was too much for me to accept.Why would Nichole go this far just to bring me down? She had to fake her death and live a deceitful life just to make Asher like her, just to bring me down.She's my step sister but I have never thought any evil about her.Good thing I came back as someone's different all thanks to Kieran so this time I'm going to fight until I bring her down. I will expose her and she won't be able to escape my wrath.I had fainted while on the phone with Tiana who later drove me back home and when I woke up she wasn't here with me so I placed a call across to her to find me more information about the teacher needed for Juniper.Few hours later she called me back and told me that it's not just an ordinary teacher but someone who can make juniper tal
Daisy POVFrom the station, I went straight to check on my mother in the hospital but when I got there I was told that she had been discharged from the hospital and she's now receiving her treatment from home.So I drove to my father's mansion, a place I hadn't been for quite a long time. I felt a lump in my throat and my hands tightened around the steering wheel when I remembered how I was treated the last time I came here.But this time it would be different. I told myself as I came down from the car and I headed straight to the big gate.When I knocked on the black gate a few minutes later a guard opened up for me.“Yes, who are you?” He asked me with his body still blocking the way.I remained silent for a while. My voice was lost in words. It felt so strange that I was asked who I was at my father's house. This is the first time I have been asked such a question. Other times I'm ushered in though I wasn't warmly welcomed by the people inside. “Ma, who are you?” The security guy
Daisy POVDays turned to weeks and weeks into months, five months later I came back to Arizona feeling the air and lifestyle I left behind bringing fresh memories about my past and the desire to run back to my children and Asher but I'm holding back.After going through a lot of training and self-building with the help of my mate and his grandmother I'm finally back as a changed person.I changed the color of my hair from its natural blonde to dark brown, then my blue eyes to amber, and even my fashion style. It's like I changed everything about myself except my heart and the feelings I experienced.It wouldn't have been easy for me to pass through such a tough time alone but with the help of my mate and my wolf, I'm going to come out victorious.No one knows my identity except those I want to tell, I'm like the god of my life.First I sent Tiana to go check on my kids and she came back with reports that they're trying to cope except for Asher who has been the worst part of himself. I
Daisy POVWhen Mrs Gianna, Karien's grandmother told me that the process is painful and dangerous she wasn't joking about it and if not for the fact that restoring my wolf is that important I wouldn't have agreed to it.She has been like a God to me, she helped me to stay alive, she was hurt just to keep me safe so I was ready to do anything to bring her back.And besides, I can't go back to Arizona now. I need a perfect plan to be able to catch the person who wants me dead and if I don't want to risk my children's life I have to be extra careful and not be in a rush to go back.I'm doing this for my children and my wolf. I encouraged myself to stay strong as Madam Gianna explained what was to be done to me.“What are the things that trigger your nightmare?”She asked me very early the following day after I had agreed to carry out whatever had to be done.“Confined room, dark room, deep waters, and whenever I'm in danger.”“What are the things you usually see in your dreams repeatedl
