Mondays Always Suck

/-Isla-/

“Ouch! That hurts,” Elsie cried.

“It should,” I huffed. “Maybe next time, you wouldn't be so eager to jump into a deal with the devil. What the hell were you even thinking?”

She buried her face in the pillow, sobbing quietly. I felt a little guilty for scolding her in her condition.

“That heartless bastard,” I cursed under my breath. “I can't believe that he actually whipped you all night!”

“I… you can't blame him. We had a deal and he was very clear about the consequences. I was the one who got overconfident and agreed to it,” Elise said quietly.

Guilt clawed my chest. If I wasn't so gullible, she might have won and Roman would be out of her life for good.

“My mother wants me to work with him,” I said. “Imagine sitting across him every day for the next what… three years of my life?”

“Why do you assume you would be sitting next to him?” Elsie's tone held a little amusement and I wasn't tempted to poke her wounds for mocking me.

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   A for Arrogance

    Chapter Thirteen A for Arrogance /-Isla-/“You're joking right?” I chuckled. “You almost got me…”“Do I look like I have the time to play games with you?” He cut in icily and my laughter seized. He was nothing like the Roman I knew at home. This man before me was a cold domineering boss, stern enough to fire anyone he didn't feel the need to keep. “You can't fire me. This is my father's company!” I defiantly stated.“The company policy doesn't exempt you from the dresscode. You can walk in here dressed like a slut and expect me to hand you an appointment letter simply because it is listed in your inheritance,” he said, picking up the phone. “What are you doing?” I asked. “What do you think? I'm calling the security to throw you out,” he shrugged and my eyes widened. “You can't do that!” I half-yelled, annoyance seeping through my veins. “What is wrong with you people?!”He paused dialing the numbers, staring at me as I threw my purse in frustration. “I wore a decent pantsuit t

    Chapter Fourteen A little fickle of jealousy /-Isla-/“How was your first day at work?” My mother asked. She was in bed now with a doctor examining her. “Exceedingly infuriating,” I huffed. “I told you mother, I can't work with that man. Can you believe he fired me on my first day at work!” Elsie laughed and I shot her a glare. She was supposed to be pouring my mother a drink, not reveling in my suffering. “What were you expecting when you wore that?” Elsie retorted. “I know the Luna complained about your first outfit but you didn't have to go and mke it worse.”“Perhaps,” I muttered. “But that is no excuse for him to treat me the way he did!” “Isla,” my mother called and I looked at her. “You need to stop fighting your uncle. You will never be able to survive at this rate.”“Did you hear the part where I said he took me in as an intern, not a regular employee!” I groaned. “I tried my best to tolerate him mother but he just keeps pushing me to the edge. He is a bully!” She snor

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   A distress call

    Chapter Fifteen A distress call/-Isla-/“The chicken has too much spice in it,” Manda dropped her fifth complaint. “Could have reduced the quantity of spices a little bit. It could cause serious stomach problems.” The food in my mouth suddenly tasted like ashes. Everyone else, including Roman complimented the dish on their first spoonful but all Manda has done since she started eating was complain about one thing or the other. Nothing was good enough for her. I was trying my best to stay calm, even when Arla was practically growling inside me. Elsie was constantly rubbing my lap to keep me calm but Manda wouldn't just stop. She was pushing every single button, baiting me to disrespect her before everyone. “You know, now that the soup is a little cold, it tastes even more…”“If you're not hungry, you could just leave the table,” My mother finally came to the rescue. “My ears are bleeding from all your complains.” “Mother,” Manda pouted with her fake innocence. “I do want to eat,

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   Heartbreak

    Chapter One /-Isla-/Alpha Roman Kane.I have never wanted any man as much as I wanted him. Never craved the touch of any man as much as I craved him.I wanted him to pin me to the wall, push up my skirt and fuck the daylights out of me.I wanted him to hate seeing me with other men as much as I hated seeing him with other women. Burn with the same jealousy I did when others looked at him. When I couldn't call him my man.My need for him was like a cancer, spreading through my body. Corrupting and eating me alive until I slowly lost myself.I stared at my reflection in the glass, sucking in a deep breath. Today marked the sixteenth year of my existence. I was practically an adult, who was old enough to take responsibility for my feelings.I had to have Alpha Roman to myself. I just had to."Isla. Seriously. Stop staring."Elsie’s voice came as she nudged my elbow, her brows pulled together in that worried way of hers."I’m not staring," I mumbled, but my eyes drifted back anyway.Rom

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   The engagement

    Chapter 2/-Isla-/It's been two weeks since Roman read my diary and since then, he had avoided me by all means. We didn't see eye to eye and he became a rare presence during breakfast and dinner.I was heartbroken. I couldn't eat, couldn't sleep, couldn't even think. I was a walking zombie. I spent night after night, sobbing and cursing myself for ruining the perfect relationship we could have had.To make it worse, there were rumors everywhere that he was going to finally choose a mate.I didn't want to believe it but the servants wouldn't shut up about it, especially the ones that cleaned the hallway. Even now, I could hear them from my room.“Have you seen the class of women that come to see him every day? All with luxury gifts and enticing offers,” one said.“You speak of the foreign women but I see him most times with that lady, Manda. I think they are cooking up something,” another responded.“You could be right,” the first agreed.“Whether he picks her or the hundreds of Princ

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   Mate

    Chapter Three5 Years Later/-Isla-/“You need to come back, Isla. The Luna is seriously ill. The Doctors don't think she would be able to make it to the next moon,” Elsie's voice rang desperately in my ears. “You need to see her, Isla. Please… you'll never forgive yourself if she dies without you seeing her.”I knew she was right. After leaving home years ago, I cut all communication with everyone. Except Elsie, of course. Even though Roman was the one who hurt me, I secretly resented everyone, including my mother for not stopping him. It just hurt so much at that time and my naive sixteen-year-old self didn't care if she knew about my feelings or not. I hated myself for punishing her for something she knew nothing about but leaving was the only way to get over him. All I had to do was push on till my eighteenth birthday.When I clocked eighteen, I was excited. I thought I would find the mate that would finally take my mind off Roman for good but I was wrong.

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   You Belong To Me

    Chapter Four /-Isla-/This had to be a cruel joke. I turned eighteen and waited eagerly for my mate but Arla didn't pick him up and now, two years later when I already found myself a charming boyfriend, I was suddenly mated?‘Let’s go, Isla, we're going to lose him if you keep whining,’ Arla cried impatiently. Whining? She was the one whining!I followed the scent and Arla's excitement pushed me into a run. I went through the courtyard and finally found myself in the garden. There was no one there but the scent was incredibly strong and overwhelming. He was here somewhere!“Looking for someone, little one?” My entire body stiffened as the rich silky tone filtered into my ears. 'Mate!’ Arla leaped again but I didn't turn around.This had to be a cruel joke. The man who rejected me five years ago was now my mate? The goddess had to be pranking me!He took a step forward and I could feel his presence engulf me. The air was thick with his pheromones and I found myself melting. “You

    Chapter Five/-Isla-/I belong to him?This had to be the biggest joke of the century. Who the hell did he think he was?“I don't think you heard me right,” my eyes narrowed as I stepped closer, ignoring the prickle in my skin from his closeness. “I said I reject you!” “Your rejection is void unless I accept it,” those seafoam eyes locked with mine, “and I will never accept it.” My fists clenched hard. I wanted to punch him so badly. Why was he so intent on making my life miserable?“So what do you expect me to do now? Hold on to a married man because he's what? My mate?” I huffed. “Listen carefully, Alpha. I, Isla Dysai Kane, am my own person and will never ever belong to you!” I poked him hard in the chest. “I'm going back to my boyfriend. You can choke on the stupid bond for all I care!” He didn't stop me as I walked away and I was grateful. The last thing I wanted him to see was the unshed tears in my eyes. Because then he would know that no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't

What the hell is going on here and why have you been here all day, Elsie?” I asked, barely able to keep my anger at bay. “I was searching everywhere for you!”Elsie let out a sigh as she got up from her seat. “Let's talk outside, Isla. Please?” “No, we are going to talk right here! In front of him! He told me you were being tortured for disrespecting him and he would double your punishment every second Carlos stays here,” I yelled. Her eyes widened in shock and she stared accusingly at Roman.“All I had to do was win, you didn't say it had to be the right way,’’ he shrugged. I wanted to rip my head out in confusion. They were both confusing me! “Isla, I came here to have a word with Roman, as you know. I told him to leave you alone that you had a boyfriend who would kill for you and he said if he actually wanted you to send Carlos away within the next few hours, you would.

    Chapter Ten A little trick /-Isla-/I panicked immediately I realised what I had done. I opened my mouth to apologise but nothing came out. I was gaping like a fish. Those blue eyes looked like they had been stabbed over and over in the chest. To make it worse, my mouth wasn't cooperating. Instead, my hands were clasped together in silent plea. “I should start packing,” he stood up and walked to his wardrobe without sparing me a second glance. What is wrong with me?!“Carlos…” I finally managed to speak. “I'm sorry, please… I didn't mean to react like that . I just…” I couldn't find the right words to say. “You just what?” He faced me, allowing the wardrobe slam close behind him. “Go ahead and explain, I'm waiting!” “I'm sorry…” I apologised, feeling the tears stung in my eyes. “I don't know why…”“Well I do!” He said coldly. “You are still hung over that Roman guy.

I was already fighting hard to keep the tears stinging my eyes at bay. If anyone interrogated me, I might as well burst into tears. “Yes, I did,” she said weakly. “I wanted us to discuss your father's company which is currently under your uncle's control. I spoke to him…” she paused suddenly, letting out a violent cough. “Are you okay, mom?” I asked, scrambling off the bed to grab a bottle of water for her. I picked one out from the fridge and uncapped it quickly. I poured it quickly into the glass and handed it to her. She emptied the glass and relief washed through me when I saw that she was okay. “Are you okay, Isla?’ she asked me. “Your eyes…”“I should be the one asking if you're okay, Mom. We were talking about the company and you said…” I tried to change the subject but she cut

She was Elsie and she'd do whatever the fuck she wanted no matter what I said. Carlos returned with the gift and was surprised to see just me. “Where did she go?” He asked, setting in on the spot where she was sitting. “I don't know. Probably to grab something,” I shrugged. I couldn't possibly tell him that my best friend was going to fight my uncle because of me. Carlos took his seat beside me. “So…” he said, voice low, eyes dragging over me like he was reading a dirty thought. “Looks like it’s just the two of us now.”I willed myself to stay still. Not to move from him like I always did when he became filthy or suggestive. I already pissed him off this morning. I wanted to make up for that. “Well do…” I smiled. “Do you want me to show you around? I could give you a tour of the pack. I can even show you some of my favourite places when I was a kid.”

I was treading on dangerous grounds but who fucking cares?I won't let him control my life!The tension at the table was sharp enough to. Cut through anything. Everyone looked between Roman and me, but we didn't take our eyes off each other. “Good morning, everyone. Sorry I'm late, I was really out of it last night,” Elsie showed up out of the blue, breaking the awkward silence. “Isla!” She dropped on the seat next to me and draped her arms around me, blissfully unaware of what she walked into. “I'm so sorry we couldn't talk last night. I thought you might want to spend more time with the Luna,” she said and I smiled. “Thank you, Elsie. For bringing me back,” I said softly and she pulled me into a tight hug.“I've missed you soooooo much! We have a lot to catch on about…” she paused, glancing at Carlos with
