Alpha Draven's Regret; Chasing My Secretary CHAPTER 008
Aveline Immediately I got to the hospital, and I rushed off to where the doctor that had called me was. I pushed open the ward door, hoping that what the doctor had said would turn out to be false, even though I knew that the chance of that happening was extremely low. I met the doctor standing close to the bed with what seemed to be nothing other than a stethoscope around his neck with his back turned towards me. I walked slowly, my feet feeling too heavy to raise, so I had to drag them across the floor, my facial expression betraying my emotion in that instant immediately after I laid my eyes on the figure that lay on the bed that the doctor was standing really close to and was covered from head to toe. The doctor turned to stare at me with a saddened expression plastered on his face; that same emotion could be noticed in his voice when he spoke to me. “I am sorry for your loss, Miss Aveline; she died not too long ago,” he said to me and clasped his hand on my shoulder. I tight

Aveline I sat at a country club among the company of the most loving couple I have ever laid eyes on, Grace and Roy. They are the perfect definition of what I had always wanted my relationship with my mate, Draven, to be. We could have worked towards it and made it perfect. Their relationship is almost what every young lady who had laid her eyes on them wants her own to be like also. They were obviously a couple filled with love who were also mates; their combination was really a match handpicked by the moon goddess herself, while mine was no doubt handpicked by the devil himself instead. I had woken up this morning for the first time in a long while jobless; there was nothing to do, and I was all alone in my home. I could not visit Sabrina in her own home due to the fact that she was far away from home, a thousand miles apart, in another country, engaging in a business matter. Staying alone at home was not an option I was even going to consider at all. If I had stayed at home, th

Aveline Days had slowly turned to weeks and I was yet to find a job. I was qualified for each and every one of them, but Draven just kept getting in the way; he was the only thing that was making me jobless until now.They all kept rejecting me since they failed to see a reference from my former boss, which was Draven; some of the companies I went to even rejected me immediately after I failed to provide a reference from my former boss.I knew that things would be bad but I never knew it would be this bad…or was he doing this on purpose for me to return to him?If that's the case, then it's a big lie, I'm returning nowhere.I'd rather die while looking for a job than return to anything that has to do with him, it was more than a living hell. No one would wish for that kinda life but I just had to put up with it. "What the fuck did he think he's gonna gain from doing this?" I spoke for the first time since I got out of the last company that rejected me. "It should not be difficu

Aveline The constant ticking of the clock had probably woke me up, I was not far gone in sleep actually. I was always thinking about how things were, and it was not even a thing to laugh over. After all, it seems like Draven was right. I don't think I'd be able to get a job without his signature.It's been three bloody whole weeks since I got out from Draven's company and I was yet to secure a job. Lots and lots of jobs were available, huge jobs but Draven was just a pain in the ass. "Damn!" My eyes went wide immediately and I remembered I was supposed to be somewhere today. Well, it might just end up like the rest. They would definitely ask for the same thing again which is the letter, so I guess it'd be great if I just sit here and save my strength. No. No one knows what might happen. I looked up at the wall clock, the time was just six minutes to eight and I needed to be there before nine.I undressed and walked towards the bathroom, the water was cold but soothing, as I s

Aveline There his mom was, seated on one of the two visitor's chairs placed opposite the one that Draven usually sits on. The only thing that separates them is the expensive glass table. I looked past Draven, who was standing in front of me with his palm open and outstretched, like he was waiting for me to place my hands on them, to stare at his mother. If this asshole thinks that I am going to do his bidding just because I came back, then he is gravely mistaken. I just need to complete this deal that I had already started with a huge business company. It was a huge deal that this company actually needs, so it can be my parting gift with them. "What is wrong with you?" Draven's mom stared at me with a slightly pissed expression. Wait!Hold on a minute here; I don't think we are getting the situation clearly. Who is supposed to be pissed here?There is no way she is the one that's supposed to piss; I did nothing wrong to make her pissed, but the same can't be said for her son and

Aveline Take responsibility for something that was clearly not my fault. It was not like I had any other choice than to right the wrong that I did not commit. I was obviously fuming on the way to the other company, whose representatives had left in a bad mood with clearly a bad review about the deal that was supposed to have been finalized by now or a couple minutes ago. I was muttering words that would have seemed incoherent to others and sounded as gibberish if I was in the midst of a large group of people, given the way my driver had been staring at me through the rearview mirror. “Is anything the matter, ma’am? You seemed to be in a very bad mood,” he had asked me five minutes after we left the office. I had simply lied and told him nothing; the lie was obvious. What I had said and the way I was behaving were contradicting each other. He had wanted to push but decided against it and just stuck to glancing at me through the rearview mirror at intervals. The fact that he had

AvelineImmediately I heard it, I turned back to Emily whose eyes were fixed sternly on me. "Do you have any idea that you are delaying me?" She averted her gaze from me and transferred it to her heels.I just smiled and walked away, I had no choice but to bring it anyway. Slowly, I made it out of the door and walked towards the coffee store that was just a stone's throw away from the building exit door. The wind was strong, and I squinted my eyes; my hair came front, but I quickly waved it behind me and sighed. "Could today get any better?"'As I got to the store, a cup of coffee was already placed on the table,e and I picked it up and turned to take my leave when the brown-skinned female greeted me."Good morning, ma'am," it was like her voice was infused with medicine, but the pain in me was just stronger.I halted in my steps and smiled; I was not looking at her anyway. "Good morning, I'm sorry for not greeting you."A light chuckle could be heard behind me, she was the one. "

AvelineDays had passed and I was still treated in the same way. Wasn't there supposed to be a change? Even if it was slightly positive, it wouldn't be bad, but no, things just kept getting worse.I rested my back and heaved a sigh, my eyes still fixed on the paper, it was the true definition of stress and I kept on working on it day and night, I denied myself of sleeping and the only thing that made me happy was all because of I'm so close to getting the deal done.My eyes scanned the room, and it stopped immediately after it got on the clock."Fuck!" I cursed immediately when I saw the time; it was a few minutes past eight, and I had yet to take my bath.No one cared how hard I worked; my death would be the best news to most of them, so all I needed to do was just care for myself while working like a farm animal. Sabrina came back yesterday, and I saw her reaction when she saw me; it was a sad one, but she quickly plastered a smile on her face. She also told me not to worry about

MasonThe night was short but Mason was used to it by now -- going for missions. He took this one like another hunting mission and that was the only way he was able to remain calm even though Leemah still tried to advise him against it twice."All set? Now we have to find a way to carry her without letting it weigh on us so much." Ethan stated the obvious as the two men met outside the pack at dawn."I think Leemah has that covered," Mason replied and Ethan nodded with a pout.They went to the room where Aveline lay and just like Mason said, Leemah got it covered.She made a flatbed with wood and fur on both sides. It had leather stripes for easy carriage."How does this work?" Ethan asked, visibly confused."You strap it to your back, she lays on the other side. These fur ropes are also to strap her tight on the other side while the other helps you carry her."Let's try it out." Mason turned his back, ready for the strap to be tied to his arms, chest and lower back.When it was all d

MasonIt's been two days since Aveline collapsed and she was getting pale by the day."Are you sure the book didn't cast a spell on her? What if it was a curse?" Mason asked Leemah who tapped her cane on the floor of the room without saying anything."I'm not an expert with her kind but I know who can help." She stated and it made Mason all the more interested. He had not known Aveline for the longest but he knew that she had a family waiting for her back at home and she had unfinished business with his enemy. If he couldn't get revenge, the woman believed she lived to get revenge on the people who had hurt her and as much as he didn't want to endanger his pack members or get into trouble himself, he also wanted revenge.If he was going to get it from someone else, he had to ensure she remained alive at least."Give me the address." He replied with urgency in his tone."It is risky, too risky. The place is located in the mountains. You might not make it." Leemah replied. She didn't w

DravenSince Sabrina returned and told Draven a piece of her mind, he had lost the little sleep he usually manages to catch during the day and was roaming about, looking for the best way to organize a search party for Aveline without being seen or caught by the Lycans and wild beasts in the forest."Julian's men are also on the lookout for her. That means she is not in the pack. She truly escaped like the slave girl said. We need to trade carefully so we don't fall into their hands." Draven's spy informed Draven who nodded absent-mindedly.He wondered why it was so hard to get Aveline back. Every time they wanted to go get her back, there was always something new coming up to prevent them from reaching her.She had been gone for long, and Draven doubted if she still looked like she did before she left. Hell, he had no idea if she was still in one piece."Is there no way we can explore the forest at a certain time and leave before they begin their search?" Draven asked."If... I know s

AvelineIt felt surreal even after the hours that went by that I took down a Jaguar by myself and with one blow.Leemah sat beside me all the while but she was not amazed by what I did, it was almost like she expected me to do it and it got me even more confused."What happened?" Mason asked running into the study room where Leemah and I sat dumbfounded. The Jaguar spoils were outside in the pack compound and I was certain he had seen them before running to meet us."Speak of the devil." Leemah hissed."I told you going hunting with all the able men was a bad idea but you insisted." Leemah rolled her eyes at him."I know, you were right but that is the only way to have a real fight and access the men." Mason tried to explain but Leemah would hear none of it."I still think it is a dumb move. Did you see what we had to face while you were gone, lying outside?" She asked, referring to the dead Jaguar. "About that... who took it down? It looked shattered from the inside. The men examin

JulianHe had sent out some of his men to search for Aveline in the forest but they returned with no news.Hell, he did not even know why he cared about Aveline or her whereabouts. It was not something he would normally do but thinking about the next shareholders meeting taking place in Aveline's company, he knew he had to find her no matter what.Sabrina hated him already for agreeing to a deal with Kade and keeping her friend hostage. She would go ghost mode on him when she finds out that her friend is no longer in his clan and is nowhere to be seen."Hello, Beatrice." Julian started when the line connected. "Just calling to get info from your own end," Julian replied after Beatrice said some words from the other end."I see. Does she know about it yet?" Julian asked "Okay. Let it remain that way. Update me on any further happenings Beatrice." Julian ended the call before the woman could say any more words.She had often called his attention to the way he asked after Sabrina and s

AvelineThe training took its toll on me. Even though it was just throwing punches and blocking them, my body ached from the movements and Mason was not just any opponent.He was a skilled opponent who had overcome a lot of enemies and had learned to be quick over the years so his punches were fast and I had to be fast enough to dodge them. I tried being fast but I still earned a lot of punches, especially on the first and second day. But on the third day, I started getting a hang of it and I tried to keep his pace too.That day was however the fourth day and Mason was nowhere to be seen. I was out at the usual training time and I have gone round the pack but I haven't sighted him anywhere."Excuse me, do you know where I can find Mason?" I asked one of the females I found around the pack."Oh, he went for his hunt with most of the males in the pack. They will be back towards nightfall." She replied with a welcoming smile."Thank you." I walked away from her while I thought about what

Julian Julian was not the happiest that he had to return from his trip but he had no option since he got the news from his trusted warrior that Kade was turning the clan upside down.He led with rage and foolishness. Although Julian could easily control Kade, he still wanted to watch him for some time and let him go too deep into his rage and make a mistake that he would not be able to recover from. Only on those grounds would he break their deal and have his men deal with Kade. But for now, all he could do was watch."Welcome back boss." His closest warrior greeted him when he walked into the clan."Where is he?" Julian asked as he strolled in."He is in the meeting hall." The warrior replied."I see." Julian nodded and headed to the meeting hall.Julian stopped some meters away from the hall and he heard Kade yelling at his warriors for being so incompetent and even useless."He has been on and on like that ever since Aveline escaped." The warrior informed Julian and Julian looke

AvelineMy eyes blinked open and I saw myself in the same room I woke up from the first day but this time around, I was not alone. Leemah sat beside me and she grinded some herbs so quietly. She stopped when she noticed my movement."You are finally awake." She greeted and squeezed the herb's liquid into a cup."How long was I out for?" I asked with a wince."You slept for two nights. I told you you needed to rest but you insisted on walking around now look where that got you." She pouted and brought a cup to my mouth."Drink up. It will help you with strength." She added and I gulped down the contents of the cup. I was used to taking different herbs by now.I sat up after drinking the liquid from the herbs, trying to remember how I got there in the first place before it struck me."The book..." I muttered to myself but Leemah heard me and she pressed her lips tightly. She had been waiting for us to have the conversation."Yeah. The book. What happened back there?" She asked with a s

Draven "How do you expect me to calm down when I don't know where she went to? How can you stand there and tell me that she will find her way home when all we can see around the clan are forests?" It had been a few days since Draven returned to his pack and awaited Aveline's return and he was no longer having it."All I am saying is you should calm down, you would not be able to make the right decision if you go on like that," Brian replied. He was the only one who could speak to Draven while he raved."What has being calm done for me these past days?" Draven's voice reverberated across the walls of the hall.Angel was seated on one of the seats and Scar in another.The she-wolf had no more ideas left. Aveline was her last hope and not seeing her by this time could mean that she did not make it. And the thought alone broke her. All the risk she took for her sake would be in vain."The slimy slave girl must have lied to you all." Beatrice's voice started from the door and everyone shi
