Alpha Draven's Regret; Chasing My Secretary CHAPTER 045
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

DravenSophie pushed the security guard out of her way after ignoring his questions. She walked hurriedly to the door and pushed it open. As Sophie stood before him, Draven's eyes widened in horror, his mind struggling to comprehend the bloody scene unfolding before him. Blood continued to trickle down her hand, forming a small puddle on the floor, while her clothes were splattered with crimson stains, a stark testament to the brutality she had endured.Sophie's face was partially covered by her hand, which she held pressed against her cheek as if attempting to stop the flow of blood or reduce the pain. Her groans were low and anguished, a heart-wrenching expression of the suffering she was experiencing.Draven's voice trembled with shock as he stuttered, "W-what...what happened?" His gaze remained fixed on Sophie, his eyes scanning her battered form, taking in the severity of her injuries. As he stumbled backward, his eyes locked onto the claw marks etched into her face, a knowin

DravenDraven placed Sophie on the couch and a sigh escaped his lips. "How is Aveline capable of doing this?" He rose to his feet and walked out of the sitting room with a concerned look. He got to a room where he brought out a first aid kit, and then he made it back to the sitting room. Slowly and gently, he cleaned the blood on her face and her hand before applying ointment and he bandaged it. "Your wolf must be weak so I guess it'll be faster with this," his gaze was on the med kit that was now arranged properly again. He took Sophie in his hands and made for her room before kicking the door open."Where am I?" Sophie's eyes opened slowly and her tone was low. "You're still home okay?" He dropped her on the bed and flipped the switch. "All you need is just rest and your wounds will be healed." Without waiting for a response, he shut the door behind him and made for the sitting room with worry etched on his face. "Aveline did that to her?" His hands were in his pockets and a

DravenHe lifted his up and his gaze was fixed on them again, the way they played, the way they laughed. "I guess he is a great father," he muttered in defeat. 'Well, you had the chance to be one but guess what? You fucked up that chance because of your pride.' he heard his wolf's voice again and he gritted his teeth in anger. 'And where has that gotten you? Nowhere of ourse.' He gave no response, instead he just kept staring at the family that were laughing and playing. 'You know I'm telling you the truth don't you?' 'Okay, I know. I know you are telling me the truth so can you shut the fuck up now? Please.' A sigh of relief escaped his lips when he heard nothing from his wolf. He slowly walked towards the family with his hands in his pockets. Hi." Aveline turned to him. Not in shock but in hate and he pressed his lips when he saw the look on her face. Her forehead knitted and a grim expression was visible on her face, he was about to turn when he felt a warm hand grab his

AvelineI shot Draven a deadly stare whenever our eyes met and I'm pretty sure that was the reason why he stopped looking at me."Wow, I'm out in the first round," I heard Kade's voice. "I guess I met my superior already." "You are right," Betty replied to him but Draven's gaze was fixed on the game. It's not like I wanted him to look at me anyway. Had it been it was three years ago, I guess I would have blushed every time he looked at me, but now… it's useless. Fucking useless!!!Betty and Draven placed their hand under their chins as they were completely into the game like they were gonna be given an award worth millions of dollars. "You're a tough opponent," Draven whispered to Betty who just chuckled. Whenever they looked at one another, my heart skips. It won't be long before he notices the things Betty has in common with him, and I just wish they would play the game and not keep on looking at one another.How would Betty react when she finds out that bastard is her father?H

JulianHe ran after Sabrina who in turn ran after the man who snatched her bag.She was cursing all along.The thief ran into a street, a street Julian knew well enough and he followed another route to block the thief. He knew where the thief was running to and the last thing he wanted was to be seen."Stop! Turn around slowly and drop the bag." Julian ordered when he got close enough but the thief didn't stop for five seconds and then he suddenly paused and stopped as though Julian's words replayed in his head and it rang a bell.He turned around as instructed and his eyes widened in shock. Sabrina ran in just in time to see him shaking with fear."J-Ju- King!" He stuttered, his hands to his head as the bag fell off his hand. Sabrina was surprised by his reaction and she shifted glances between the man and Julian."You can go. Don't tell anyone you saw me." Julian whispered and the man nodded vehemently before running away.Sabrina was even more confused. Why did Julian tell him not

SabrinaJust like she expected, the next day was a busy one and she didn't even get to eat breakfast.Sabrina and Julian had a meeting with the company's board members to discuss the process of penetrating the market and it was a long one.A lot of ideas were thrown on the table but due to the location, a lot of them would not be effective so they all had to brainstorm and come up with something better.By the time the meeting was adjourned, it was late noon already.While the board members cleared their tables and left the hall, Sabrina took her time picking her things up. She was so careful not to miss a step or act clumsily out of hunger and exhaustion. No other person seemed to notice her but of course, one person did, and it was Julian. He walked right up to her with a subtle smile. Now, he was not a man of many smiles but he had been smiling whenever he was around Sabrina. Maybe he had not noticed it yet or maybe he thinks it's a part of his fun games but he will, soon enough.

Sabrina"How dare you bring me to a motel? You think I'm one of those cheap sluts you play around with as you will?" Sabrina fumed, ignoring the look of total confusion her words brought to Julian's face. "Read my lips you scumbag, I do not want to do anything of that sort with you. Hell, I don't even want to be in the same space as you are and I'm barely coping..." Sabrina was raging on and on and it seemed like the more she spoke, the more angry she became so Julian tried to calm her down."Wait, wait, you think this is a motel?" He asked with a chuckle. He had no idea why he warmed up to the lady despite her fierceness. Maybe that was what intrigued him in the first place.Sabrina stopped raving and just stared daggers at him."You think I want to do something of that sort with you?" Julian asked again, a subtle smile of amusement on his face."Of course! Why else will you bring me here instead of taking me to the hotel we booked? This is not the name of the hotel. And why would y

JULIAN The day Julian and Sabrina were meant to travel finally arrived, and they both made their way into the private jet that was waiting for them at the airport. Immediately after they stepped inside, Julian noticed the change in Sabrina's expression, and it was quite easy for him to tell what the cause for her sudden change in expression was. “Why are the chairs so close to each other?” She questioned, slowly moving to one of them, while he moved to the other. “I am not the one that built this jet, so I have no answer to the question that you just asked me,” Julian replied as he slumped down into one. “It was a rhetorical question; you didn't need to answer it,” she replied with a quite feisty tone. “If it were up to me, I wouldn't have minded the chairs being so far away from each other,” she muttered under her breath. Julian turned to stare at her with the same amused expression that always finds its way to his face whenever his eyes land on the embodiment of beauty sittin

Aveline I started getting worried. Not because of Betty this time around, or Sabrina or even my company, _although those always got me worried daily_This time around, I was worried because of the She-wolf who had been helping me through my recovery. I had not seen her in a while now and it was not normal for someone who always came around every morning to check in on me and keep me company, she hadn't come in for three days. I had every right to be worried. Considering what I went through in the hands of Kade.'What if he locked her up in the cell because she did something offensive?' I thought to myself with a deep sigh. She was a slave after all, and slacks are not cut for slaves in the clan. 'What if they killed her?!' My heart beat accelerated at this thought and I placed a palm on my chest to calm myself. I had to think about the positives that could happen but there were barely any positives that could happen in this shit hole of a clan where the Lycans kill for the fun o

Draven’s office was occupied by three people, with Draven seated behind his desk on his usual office chair, while the other two occupants, Brian, his beta, and Scar, Aveline’s right-hand man, sat on the two chairs opposite where Draven was seated. “Let's not even beat around the bush, and let me get straight to the point. I called both of you here to fill you in on my plan to attack the Lycans and set Aveline free from their grasp.” His gaze moved from Brian to Scar while he spoke, paying rapt attention to the expression plastered on their faces. Just like he had expected, the only person that reacted to this news was his beta, Brian. “You know this is not something that we are supposed to rush into,” Brian said and leaned forward, placing his arm on the table, like Draven wouldn't be able to hear him due to the little distance between them. He continued before Draven could interrupt him, “These people are far stronger than we are; they are well versed in battle individually. It w

DravenThe day was a busy one for him, it was either that or he had been so buried in Aveline's absence that he snubbed work for weeks. And it was telling on him from the pole of files on his table and the trouping in and out of his secretary into his office with more complaints and questions. Must have lost track of time with the so much work he had to handle and he only realized that when he picked up a call from a client who wanted a detailed statement of his transaction with Draven's company. Draven ran out of his office when he saw the time. He had forgotten to pick Betty from school.He drove over to her school like a man whose wife was in the hospital.When he got there he was told that Betty already left and Kade picked her up.Kade was no stranger to the school. He always picked his niece from school before he decided to show his true colors and Betty always tagged along so the teachers didn't read any meaning into his meeting with the girls."You could have called me and i

KadeAfter his conversion with Julian, Kade decided it was better to act on his _with the last card he had to pull; getting Aveline's daughter, Betty._He had not shown his face since he got to Julian's clan and had his friend handle his business while he was away but everything was not going as planned so he had to take desperate measures."Hey, sis!" Kade greeted over the phone as he got in his car."Am I talking to a ghost? You have been gone for so long that I began to think that my dear cousin is now a ghost!" The woman exclaimed from the other end of the call."I had to handle some serious business and it took more time than anticipated," Kade replied with a calm voice."You got me worried. And your niece had been asking after you all week!" She replied. "I'm sorry I got you worried. You know what? I'm coming into town today, can I stop by the house for a good lunch? You know I've missed your nice dishes." Kade asked and just like he expected, the woman had no issue with hostin

AvelineI have not set my eyes on Kade since the last time he came to my room. It was hard finding out what happened between Kade and Julian because I was still healing and had been falling in and out of sleep.The she-wolf who has been helping me had suddenly been distant. She doesn't spend as much time with me anymore, claiming that I need my rest. So I had only the books she gave me for consolation. However, on this faithful morning, I woke up and I didn't feel sleepy after some seconds of being awake so I got down from the bed.My wounds were almost healed since I'd been resting well and taking my meds. I still felt weak but it wasn't as much as the first week and the pains had reduced to a faint feel.I staggered to the door and was surprised that it wasn't locked from the other side.Perhaps, this has anything to do with what the guards said about King Julian's order to let me be.Two guards were manning my door and they shifted their gaze to me when I walked out but they did n
