Alpha Draven's Regret; Chasing My Secretary CHAPTER 123
AvelineSabrina's eyes never left mine after she asked me that question, even though I kept avoiding eye contact with her. "No, I don't," I replied, my voice barely above a whisper.She was not shocked by my response, nor was I surprised that she was not. We both knew that my relationship with Kade had been a complicated one, fueled by my desire to hurt Draven."You know, everything I did, everything was just to hurt Draven," I admitted, feeling a pang of guilt.Sabrina raised an eyebrow, a hint of sarcasm in her voice. "I knew you couldn't keep up with it. Honestly, I wanted you to get back with Draven. He seemed like a changed person when he saved us from the taxi driver back then."A scoff escaped my lips as I rose to my feet. "People tend to change for a little while, all because of something," I said, my skepticism evident, and I rose to my feet to get a wine.Sabrina's eyes narrowed. "And you think Draven's current change in behavior is because he wants you back?"I paused, the

Aveline “Draven?” I called with a surprised tone while wondering what the hell he was doing here close enough to the school my—our daughter attends, not like he has any idea that he is her father. “Yeah, it’s me in the flesh,” Draven replied to me without even sparing me a glance; instead, his gaze was locked on Betty. He squatted so his eyes could be at the same level as that of Betty and probably so that she wouldn’t have to strain her neck to look at him. “Mr. Blue Eyes,” Betty called at him and reached for his face with a smile that brightened her facial features plastered on her face, one that was perfectly mirrored by Draven. “How was school today, Betty?” Draven asked and stretched his hand forward, laying her hair down. “School was fine; I had a lot of fun today and also learned a lot,” she answered with a joyous tone, smiling sheepishly and moving her head sideways from left to right and back to left again, repeating the movement. “You will have to tell me what the thi

Draven The surprised expression that made its way to Aveline’s face was expected by Draven; he saw it coming. After all, he just did something that was so out of character for him. He had spent the previous day thinking of how he was going to drop his apology to Aveline. He let out another deep sigh for the second time, or… was it more already? Draven had no idea, and he didn’t bother figuring out; instead, he answered the question that Aveline had just asked with a calm and gentle tone. “I said I didn’t get the chance to apologize to you the last time that we both spoke,” he repeated, even after fully knowing well that Aveline heard him properly earlier and just wanted him to repeat it to confirm that she heard him correctly. “Woah, that is one hell of a surprise,” Aveline said to him; the surprised expression on her face slowly returned to the previous serious expression that was there earlier. “I am sorry for treating you the way I did in the past; even though it was not comp

AvelineI stood at the balcony of my house and leaned against the rails, staring into space. To someone else it would have seemed like I was just staring blankly at my beautiful compound, but there was not just any sign to show whether I was enjoying the view or not; I was pretty sure my facial expression was blank. However, that doesn’t seem to be the case. I wasn’t staring at anything; my gaze was fixed on a particular area, sure, but I was buried deep in my thoughts. This would be like the umpteenth time that I am reliving the mostly one-sided conversation that happened between me and Draven. A couple of questions kept making their way up to the surface of my mind every single time, ones like; Am I really sure that this is the same Draven that I had known? If he was the one, what happened that changed him? Was it the case of Emily? Has this been his real self all along, or is he just a changed person? I never knew how deeply buried I was in my thoughts until Sabrina had to

AvelineThe next morning arrived sooner than expected, even though I had gone to bed a few minutes before midnight. As much as I would have loved to stay at home, I couldn’t; it’s not like I had any other choice other than to come here. It wasn't until I woke up this morning that I remembered about the meeting that was scheduled to be held today with another company. The meeting could have literally been postponed if I had wanted, or I could have called Kade and informed him that I wouldn’t be able to attend the meeting and he should be my representative there, but for some reason that doesn’t sit well with me. This was the first time I will be having a meeting with this company. I would love to be there in person and sign the contract myself. Which was the sole reason why I was currently in my vehicle and only a couple of minutes away from my company. There wasn’t any traffic on the way, so the estimated time for me to get to my company was the exact one I used and not even a si

AvelineHearing Kade bring this up once more was something that I tried to not believe. He never forgot about it, it was still in his head even though I had told him we should forget about it. I turned back on him and sucked my teeth with my hands defensively crossed above my chest. Although I was looking outside the window, I never took my mind off the thing Kade just asked me. He was behind me, still waiting for the answer. Saying yes to Kade's proposal just to torment Draven might be one of the biggest mistakes I had ever made in my life, and I knew there would be some sort of consequences attached to it, but I could not just see it yet, and I hope it never comes. "You know everyone grows impatient, don't you?" Kade's menacing voice jolted me out of my thoughts, and I turned to him with squinted eyes. "Come on, everyone knows that." No one shifted their gaze, and we just kept staring at each other until the loud tick of the wall clock made me turn to it, but I turned back to Ka

Aveline"No I don't," I replied with a straight face and pulled my hand from his grip. "Come on Ave, you've been acting out of character since my outburst. Can't a man express himself?" Frustration filled his voice but I didn't care at all.He'd shown me just what I needed to end things and I was grateful for that outburst he called common.I rolled my eyes and made to leave but he blocked me with his broad shoulder, I was happy he knew better than to hold me again."I'm the one who should be pissed. You fucking told me that you still had feelings for your ex. The same ex who hurt you. While we were in a relationship. I can tag that as cheating but I didn't, instead, I want to work things out. Why don't you want to give me a chance?" I shook my head with a smile of unbelief. "You wouldn't do that. I didn't cheat on you and stop acting like we're married or something, you can't lay any claims even if I did." When would he realize that the longer he let his rage blind him, he was go

AvelineI squinted my eyes as though I couldn't see clearly, there were all pictures of Draven and I, meeting up at different places. Kade was sick!All the pictures were taken from angles that made them seem complicated, as though we were indeed seeing each other."Shit!" Kade knew all along all the times I met up with Draven, he had me fucking trailed! He should be jailed for that!My phone buzzed with a message notification.It was from Kade. "Piece of fucking shit!" I muttered before tapping on the message.It read: Hey love, did you get my message? I'm sure you know now that it's not a bluff. I'll be waiting to hear from you. Love, Kade.'My insides boiled as I read through the message. Who was this man? He was unlike the Kade I knew who was always understanding and kind, this monster was a manipulative maniac. Even through my anger, I knew one thing was clear; he was going to post all these pictures with a different narrative and a lot of people out there would believe his na

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
