Alpha Draven's Regret; Chasing My Secretary CHAPTER 041
Aveline I heaved a sigh when I got to the office. Certain that Draven and some people from his company would be inside already, waiting for me courtesy of the stern condition I gave them the last time.Thinking back to it, it felt like I was a little too harsh, but one reminder about the worse he'd done to me, I shoved the guilty thoughts away.Nodding slightly to the bows of the staff at the door, I walked past them into the hall that led to the meeting room.Mr Kade stood at the entrance of the meeting room. "Good day ma, trust you had a good night rest?" He asked but I could hear the impatience in his voice."I slept alright Kade. Are they in already?" I answered, referring to the reason behind his tension."Yes ma, they've been here for thirty minutes at the very least." He replied, looking worried."Very well then." I replied, wanting to make my way into the meeting room but he step ahead of me, stopping me in my tracks."Is there something wrong?" I inquired, with a firm voice

AvelineI walked into my office and shut the door behind me. I would give Emily a taste of what she deserves; she has to know that the Aveline that disappeared three years ago is no longer the same as the one she trampled upon. After hours of working and going through files, I gently rubbed my eyes. A sigh escaped my lips, and just as I was packing the files, I heard a soft knock on my door. "Yes?" There was no response. Instead, the person just knocked again and I transferred my gaze to the door, curious.Who could that be?"Who is there?" My gaze was still plastered on the door. "It's me." That was no other person than Draven. A soft exhale escaped my lips and I pushed my hair behind me. "Come in." The doorknob turned slowly and he walked into the office with his hands behind him. "It's a nice one.""You should tell me why you came here," my voice was hoarse. "I don't have that luxury of time, my tables should tell you that."Draven wore a shocked and confused expression at my

DravenDraven stormed out of the building, but not in anger, in defeat. He hopped into his car and slammed the door behind him. "What's the problem, sir," it was his driver. He shot him a deadly stare that made him gasp before turning to the front and he drove out of the premises. 'You made her cold and ruthless, so you are the one at fault,' his wolf spoke in a firm tone. 'Shut the fuck up!' Draven yelled in frustration and hardened his jaw. 'You don't need to lecture me!''I warned you but you were proud…too proud.' the wolf did not cease to stop talking. 'You knew she was the best person in your company, the most versatile.' Draven face fell and he folded his arms across his chest without uttering a word. "Go faster." His voice was audible. His driver's gaze moved to the rearview camera and his face became etched with worry. "Sorry, can you come again, sir?" A slight growl could be heard and his hand shivered. "I just told you to drive faster, do you need a hearing aid?" T

DravenDraven walked into the police station with his hands in his pockets, and Sophie was at his right-hand side. She walked hurriedly towards Emily but she was stopped by one of the cops. "Get your dirty hands off me!" She yelled and forcefully hit his hand away. "Do I look like I committed a crime?"The cop just stared at her with his hands behind him."You don't even know if that so-called bitch Aveline told y'all a lie," she rolled her eyes and clicked her tongue. "You just believed her all in the name of what? She's a–"Sophie was cut short when Draven slammed his fist on the wall. "Shut the fuck up, Sophie.""You don't know if I'm saying–""Like I said, just shut the fuck up," his tone was low but firm. "We are not here for this." Draven turned to the cops who had a look of satisfaction on their faces. "What does she have to do before she would be set free?" Draven's hands were across his chest. "A fine and an apology," a man with blonde hair came out from their midst and E

AvelineI pushed my suit upward to take a look at the time and a sigh escaped my lips. "It was a few minutes past four," I promised Betty that I'd get home really early today but after looking at the files on my table, I shook my head."Another day to make it up to you, Betty," I picked up a pen and signed on a piece of paper before placing it back into its rightful place. I pressed my lips into a resolute line after I heard a knock on my door. "Who's there?" I arched an eyebrow. "The cops," I heard a deep baritone voice."You can come in," I paused. "It's not locked." The doorknob turned slowly and I saw them with Emily. She had a look of disgust on her face but I was not bothered one bit by it."She's back already," I muttered in disappointment. "I think it's too early." A cop took a step forward before placing his hands behind him. "Mr Harrington came to the station some minutes ago and he asked for the things she needed to do before she would be let out of the cell.""So has

AvelineIn the days following, I kept Draven at arm's length, replying to his greetings curtly and referring him to my secretary whenever he asked any questions. He tried to talk to me about what happened with Emily but my dismissive attitude passed enough message and he stopped trying after a couple of days.With his company working with us, we had to be involved every step of the way.And just like Kade said, it was a good collaboration as everyone was interested in what we were cooking.We even had other big companies knocking on our door to sign a contract with them and make them our subsidiary companies.We had a good first week as the collaboration was accepted by the public but as quiet and peaceful as it seemed now, I knew that it might not be for long.Even though Emily promised the cops to stay away from me, I wasn't so sure Sofia would stay away. I saw the scornful way she looked at me and I knew that it wasn't the end of the war yet.The truth was, even if it was the end

AvelineSofia slowly stepped out from beside my car into the yellowish light from the solar-powered street light in the compound.She held a smirk on her face."You seem startled, I just came for a friendly visit." She replied, enjoying the startled look on my face."Standing beside my car, hiding in the dark doesn't seem to me like what a friend would do," I replied, unimpressed with her words."So, I'll ask again before I call security, what are you doing here?" I asked with a hoarse tone."Trying to act fierce are you?" She chuckled and shook her head before bringing out what she'd been hiding behind her all the while.It was a rolled sheet of paper as long as a decent dagger."I'm not here for anything ugly unless that's what you choose." She said with a shrug."I knew that your return was for revenge, you probably want cash or some properties." She laughed before facing me again with a serious face."You've made your point and I get it. That's why I'm here to discuss business wit

AveI stumbled backward more from the shock that engulfed me than from the blood on my hands and bits of Sofia's flesh.Hopping into my car before the security guard would catch onto something, and come out of his quarters.I turned on the ignition and stepped on the accelerator, swerving out of the compound. I didn't stop until I got to the front of my house. Without turning the car off, I sat there, staring at my bloodied hands in shock and disbelief. It was as though everything that happened was a dream.'What the hell happened?' I asked my wolf who had remained quiet through it all.'Talk to me. Are you there?' I asked impatiently. I needed answers and the only way I could get answers was from V. Only she knew what happened to me.'Please!' I called out when I still got no response.'So you remember me now?' She asked with a sad tone.'I'm sorry, what happened back there?' The need to get answers to my questions prevailed over the need to feel guilty.'The tip of the iceberg of t

Aveline "Stay away from me Kade," I warned, trying to hide my fear beneath my tough facade."Will you tell me you would claw my face like the other day? Well, I'd like to see you try this time around." His reply made me swallow hard.Did he find out I wasn't with a wolf anymore? My train of thoughts cut through as I noticed him looking at me with lust-filled eyes. I became so conscious of the parts of my body my descent dress left exposed."Don't try anything funny Kade!" I warned as his eyes rested on my breasts."What's the big deal in having some of that Aveline? Why do you keep rejecting me like I'm some plague? I promise you a good time if you let me feel what it's like to be in you." Kade's words paused when I spat on him.Maybe I shouldn't have. Since it only made him pissed."You have some wild guts, Aveline." He said calmly as he wiped the saliva from his face.I was shivering with fear inwardly but I still put up a tough fit on the surface. Kade went to his closet brought

Aveline The hall was ready in no time and the Lycans had their seats. I, on the other hand, stood around and watched everything from the end of the hall.I hoped to see anyone amongst the guests who trooped into the hall who knew Draven so that I could send a message to them but they were all strange faces."It's no use," I muttered to myself and strolled to my room but some voices in the bush caught my attention. I turned around to confirm that I was truly alone and proceeded to the source of the voices."The Alpha's not going to appreciate you saying that you know?" A gruff voice spoke."She's the Alpha's prisoner, you don't expect him to share her with you do you?" Another agreed with the first speaker.The third Lycan guard shrugged. "What use is she to him when he's getting married to the daughter of the biggest Lycan clan soon? That's what this meeting is all about right?""That's none of your business. Our job is to answer to him and do what he asks us." I left the branches I

Aveline"Hey, you! Come pick up these plates." The elderly female Lycan whom I presume is in charge of the kitchen called me.Kade hadn't bothered me since my last confrontation with him and I could say everything was going well only that it wasn't. I missed my family. Betty, Sabrina, my company. Who knows what has become of my company? I'd worked so hard to build it and now I couldn't even be there to watch it fly.'Just perfect. My ill luck strikes once again!' I was pissed at myself for a lot of things.First for coming back to this goddess-forsaking city when I should've learned that it was never for me. I was never lucky here."What are you deaf? Don't you hear me talking to you?" The female asked, her face red from the strain in her voice and the anger I was sure was brewing deep within her.The Lycan guards around turned to look at me ~~The cause of the strain in the aged Lycan's voice.~~I walked to where the plates sat on the large island, picked it up and made my way to th

DravenAs much as Draven wanted to be in his room all day long and give a cold shoulder to everyone, his duty as the Alpha of his pack remained and he had to fulfill that duty.If it wasn't for Brian and some other guards who stood by him, he would've given up on being the Alpha and made it his life mission to find Aveline and bring her back. Not to the pack but to a small cottage somewhere in the midst of nowhere.All he wanted was to be with Aveline. Nothing else mattered much to him and if it would cost him his pack and its people, he'd dissolve it in a heartbeat."Boss." Someone called from the door of Draven's office."I did my findings and just like we suspected, Kade is nowhere to be seen but he put someone else in charge of his company." "Who?" Draven asked. "Damien. We also checked him and found that he has a shitty background. It's not so clear but he appears to be from Russia. His mother had a history in New York hence his tie to the place.""I see. So you think Damien ha

AvelineI found my way to Draven's much to my dismay. His scent filled my nose the minute I walked into his room and I felt the urge to retch my guts out.I swallowed hard instead and forced the last meal of bacon and bread back down my throat."Why are you so stiff?" He asked on seeing me."I'm not.""You are. I can sense it." I swallowed again. This time around the curse words almost slipped out of my mouth.I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs and ask him what they did to my wolf to silence her. But at the same time, I didn't want to sell myself out as weak and defenseless. Who knows? The reason why Kade hasn't had his way with me yet is because he still thinks I have a wolf and might deal the same fate I did with Sofia to him.And I wasn't sure when I stopped feeling my wolf. It could be after that book incident, or after we arrived at the borders of this goddess-forsaking place. Whichever one it was, I knew I couldn't sell myself just yet so I bit my lower lip instead."Wh

Aveline With each passing day, I felt so sick to my stomach. I'd recovered with time from whatever that was but the scar reminded me of the life-threatening incident. It didn't help that I could no longer hear my wolf or even feel her. Feeling weak all over again made me feel useless."Faster!" One of the Lycans shouted at us.By us, I mean the wolves within them, we were involved in all sorts of domestic jobs and were also killed at will. I had the liberty of remaining in the room I was given all day, locked up and reading boring books throughout the day, but I chose to do this instead because I'd get an idea of what the clan looked like and maybe find a secret passage I could escape from.Locking myself in would do me no good, I figured and joined them but I wasn't prepared for how tedious working for the Lycans was.We did a lot of lifting and cleaning and lifting again."Fucker" I muttered under my breath and scrubbed the floor with even more force than necessary.

DravenEven after two days since Aveline was taken by Kade, it still felt surreal. Draven felt it hard to believe that Aveline was not with him any longer but was in the Lycan's clan with Kade. It took a lot of effort from Brian and his close guards to keep him from going crazy. Her image stuck in his memory like a permanent stain. Her expression when she wanted to tell him to take care of Betty if anything happened to her while they were gone. As if she fucking knew!Betty on the other hand had been asking of her mother but Sabrina and Sofia had been working tirelessly to keep the news of Aveline's whereabouts from her. It was a wonder how long they could keep it for though. The truth would be out soon, especially if he isn't able to save her on time and it would cause an uproar in the city considering the things Aveline had under her control.'Fuck!' Draven rubbed his face in frustration as he stared down at different maps but none of them was what he needed.It was like the Lyca

Aveline We walked for almost an hour and a half before we got to a large, tall gate with even more Lycans trouping out.If the gate was this far from where Draven and I were, it meant that they knew about our presence. They knew we were coming and they knew where we were and when we arrived.Kade was more than a step ahead of us and we walked straight into their trap."Stop!" Kade instructed and the Lycans came to a halt."Take her to her room." I was dragged in a different direction while Kade followed another direction. The whole place was filled with bushes by the sides, leaving only a small road in the middle.After walking for minutes, I couldn't keep track because I was already tired from the previous fight, and the long trek. I hadn't rested since the vampires attacked the pack and it was telling on me.However, a tall building came into sight and it had a lot of windows and a wide entrance.'Was that where my room was?' I was led into the building to the second floor. And in

Draven Seeing Aveline being taken away and being unable to do anything made him lose his shit. He tugged and tugged in futility to free his hands but more Lycans approached him and covered him with their huge build."Fuck!" "Ave-line..." the sound came out mumbled. As he charged to pull the weight of the Lycans off him, he noticed some of them left him, their attention was distracted. With the decreased weight on him, he pushed them away from him and saw Brian and Scar fighting the Lycans. They were in their wolf form and they were pissed.It was possible that they saw what happened with Aveline and were out to save him.Draven lunged at some Lycans and the place became a war scene. Claws dug into flesh, Lycans into Lycans and fists into muscles as they fought tirelessly, the more they fought the more new Lycans ran toward the scene."Let's go. We have to go Draven. They're multiplying." Brian was always the reasonable one but Draven was as impulsive as ever.Kade didn't only tak
