I hovered to the other side of the house but found nothing. No one was out here. I returned to the entrance and stormed right into the house. My eyes darted through every corner as my heart raced.His scent was still present but he was nowhere near seen. “There isn’t anyone here. So why was the door left open?” The voice of the lady echoed in the room from behind.“Do you scent him?” I took a glance at her.“Who?” Her brow raised. She looked more confused than I expected her to be.Dancing my finger back and forth between both of us, “Aside the lingering scent of us both, there is one more in the air.”“What?” Her face scrunched in confusion. “It’s just the scent of both of us. And then dust,” she said with a tilted head, nodding it a little. “Em….o…k,” my teeth bit the lower part of my lips. I just presented myself as a delusional being in front of this lady. Feeling embarrassed, my nose still slightly scanned the air, searching for the scent of the beast. I needed to be sure that
His growl increased and he made to storm into the living room, but couldn't get in. He was too big for the door. He howled. The force of it pushed down some weightless stuff in the house. Father also flew up to his feet. But collapsed right away as his eyes met the eyes of Vogar. In a flash, I darted out of the kitchen right back into my room, shutting the door. Vogar’s wolf couldn't get into the house. This was my best time to escape. But how. I couldn't think cos my brain was a world of fog, and my heart kept racing faster. The sudden sound of stomping echoed in the living room, drawing closer with each second. The whole of me trembled with great fear. I knew that stomping was that of Vogar. I could tell he was now in his human form. This was the only way for him to get right into the house. His stomping echoed with each passing second. He was heading closer to me. Without letting my mind create the perfect escape plan, I unlocked my window. Pushing it open, I jumped out of it,
“Hey, Eira. Hold on a little,” Daisy pulled me by the arm, spinning me around, facing her. “Princess Sophia wouldn't want you to interfere.”“Let me go, Daisy,” I pushed her to the side. My tears welled up in my eyes as my feet resumed slapping the floor. My gaze focused on the direction I was heading.“Listen to me, Eira. You will only get her killed. All of us,” Daisy was persistent. She tugged me back once again, this time making sure her grip on me was harder. She was too fast for an Omega. I couldn't outrun her.“Please, Eira. Listen to me. Sophia gave me strict instructions not to let you show up.”“Why, Daisy? What was her reason?” “I don’t know,” she responded with confusion written on her face.See…. Daisy knew nothing. She didn't just fucking want me to go out there and get myself killed. That was the only tangible reason to explain this madness.I tried to shove her away from my path, but I couldn't. Indeed, she was too strong. She held me back in my position, both of us
“Ehh….. Why are you three here?” Sophia took the words out of my mouth just at the right time.She ambled toward us. Her head bowed in front of the beast. Daisy joined her. But I was too stunned to move. “We weren't expecting any of you,” Sophia stated.“This is my pack. I don’t need an invitation to roam about,” the beast fixed his hands in his pockets.Roam about?…. Why was he roaming about? And the worst part of the fact - around my home. What happened to his huge mansion and any other fancy places he could afford?This was confusing.“Everyone knows this is your pack. I’m just surprised to easily find you in this neighborhood. Not just you, but your Beta and Gamma as well,” Sophia said. I wasn’t the only confused one here. Thank Goddess. It was a good thing to know. “I don’t owe you an explanation,” the beast threw his face to the side.“Ahh, not with the rude attitude again,” Sophia blurted out and my eyes widened in shock. “Did you come to see us? Admit it,” she threw the unre
The sight of the beast made Father’s legs go weak. His knees gave in, landing on the floor. The head of Father ducked as his body trembled. “Greetings, Alpha. What do my household hold this visit?” I could sense how much Father tried not to break off his speech.“Long time, my good old friend,” the beast fixed his hands in his pockets as he stepped closer to Father. His moving feet stopped right in front. His height towered over Father. “You reek of alcohol.”“I just had a little with some friends,” the palms of Father brushed his thighs through his pants. Father cleaned an invisible sweat.The beast sniffed the air, inhaling for a while. “This doesn't smell like a little taste of alcohol. Is this your new habit?”“No, Alpha,” Father’s head shook eagerly.“Can you s….” I made to speak but the hand of the beast holding up in the air, ordered my lips to snap shut. My lips did in a flash. My feet stepped backward.The fingertips of the beast dragged the thighs part of his pants up, givin
I stood in place with my body stunned. I was in disbelief that the beast kissed my forehead. He did kiss me. My lips dragged in a smile as my heart danced. The pain I felt in my heart vanished in this moment.Every ounce in me suddenly spoke of relief. I couldn't believe someone could hold so much power towards you. Power that changes everything you feel in seconds. What should I call this? It was an unexplainable feeling, but I loved it.Didn't have this strong feelings for Caleb, or Vogar. The beast must have stolen something from me. Probably a strong bond during the periods when Elisa connected to his wolf, to heal him. That was the only thing that explained this whole feeling. Still in my moment of happiness when the soft voice of the beast crawled into my mind - ‘My wedding is fixed for two days’ time.’ Without letting the voice completely settle, I push it to the back of my head. Spoiling this great moment wasn't permitted by anyone. Especially my own thoughts. My head dragg
Alpha Leonardo;Hitting the golf ball with the golf club, it traveled a distance, landing on the other side of the field. Liam clapped his hands, screaming In excitement. He has been my biggest motivation when it comes to playing this stupid game.I could hardly understand why he liked it so damn much. I handed the golf club to the caddie after the last hit. “We are calling it a day,” I announced to everyone as I made my way to the cart. I got into the first. Liam and Max entered the second. The cart took us to the parking lot. We got into my car, and my driver drove us back to my hotel.Ignoring the greeting from everyone, I ambled to my suite. Punching the code, my finger paused as my eyes moved in the direction of Max and Liam, standing behind me. “Why are you both not returning to your rooms?” I raised a brow.“Open the damn door, Leo. We want to spend a little time with you,” Max stated and my eyes rolled in annoyance.“I want to be alone.”“That can’t be possible, Leo. You’ve
“What are they doing here?” I showed Max my full front view. He shrugged, giving me silence as an answer. “Don’t fucking tell me you have no damn idea how your sister and Piper found out about this hotel and the suite number?” “She is your fated mate, and can easily feel the bond. She can find you wherever she desires. Don't forget this.”“Fucking shut it. Fated mate bullshit!” I hurriedly slipped my body into a tailored pants and henley shirt as I heard the footsteps approaching. Liam had just fucking let them into my suite without seeking my permission. That damn bastard. Styling my short hair into proportion. I slipped my feet into my white scuffs. My hands were shoved in my pockets as my feet moved out of the walk-in closet into the room. “Hello, Alpha Leo. It has been a while. Nice to see you after many years. I’ve missed you,” Piper flashed me one of her stupid obsequious smiles. “I don’t miss you. Why are you here?” My butt leaned on the head of the sofa.“Whoops! He is
Eira;Loud music, getting louder with each passing second. My eyes sprinted in the direction of Sophia as she returned from wherever she went. “What took you so long?” I asked her.“I had a drunk idiot block my way. I almost broke his balls if not for the guards outside. What will you ladies like to drink?” She took her seat on the bar stool between Daisy and me. “Anything will be fine. But the liquor shouldn't be so strong. Besides, who did you speak with over the phone? You look very excited. Did your Father call and sort things out with you?” Daisy questioned.“My father?.. That will be very boring. Was on the phone with someone interesting and if this person decides to grant my request, the rest of the day will be great fun,” a nasty grin displayed on Sophia's lips. What was she up against this time? Sophia was a very unpredictable one. I hope she wasn’t up to something crazy. “Whoever you went to speak with, I pray he grants your request because you seem too excited,” my body a

Alpha Leonardo;“Is everything needed packed in the luggage?” I asked Liam.“Yes, Leo. Sure, moving to a new country is a good idea? You’ve not spoken to Max or your Luna about it. It’s still very strange to me that you want to leave the pack. You’re not one who loves to travel, not even for bigger events. What's eating you up, Leo? You lost so much weight and also interest in a lot of things. Have known you for ages but I've never seen you this way. There is something going on. Something you are keeping away from Max and I. We can’t help if you don’t speak up,” Liam stood in front of me, his hands resting on his waist.What does my Gamma want me to say to him? How will they see me if they find out all these running away was because of a she-wolf?A she-wolf who wasn't my mate. Someone who was meant to be a servant. Serve me, and nothing else. She wasn’t in my world. But it was funny how the heart could be deceiving, wanting something that was never his. I’ve heard words of what the
“Thank you,” excitement filled my voice. I rushed toward the store room and returned the equipment. Showing Anthony a smile once again even when his eyes were solely fixed on his system, before I rushed out of his office.This was a good one and Daisy can not wait to hear it. I’d thought the permission was gonna be as hard as trying to move a mountain from its position. Never expected Anthony to easily grant me access. However, there was a plan B. Daisy and I had thought of speaking to Matilda if Anthony proved difficult. But here it was. Easier than I could have ever imagined. With my cheeks still dragged from ear to ear, my feet hopped, my body swayed as I hummed the sweetest melody ever. Arriving in the staff room, Daisy was already in, waiting for me. “Are you done already?” my brow arced as I stared right at her.“No. There are so many rooms to clean but I was able to speak to the other staff. I lied,” her finger dug into her hair. Her eyes darted everywhere but not my face.“
Eira;“Have been searching everywhere for you, Eira. Why are you out here in the cold?” My body jerked hard at the sound of Daisy’s voice. My sight sprinted everywhere. It was dark already. And I was still out here in the garden. How much time has passed?“How did you find me here, Daisy?” I questioned as her hands holding my shoulders, pulled me to my feet. “When I got home and found out you were not home, I called your cell a lot of times, but you didn't pick up. I was scared, Eira. I don’t have your Mother’s contact or the contact of the hospital. I had to follow my gut. I searched the first hospital. Nothing. This was the second. I was about to leave when my nose caught your scent. Are you not cold?” Her hands brushed my arms, serving me warmess.“What time is it?”“5 am,” she responded and I let out a deep breath. Didn't know what to say. I had been here for a long time and I didn't even feel a thing. My emotions are still high, but I will need to wear my coat of control if I do
Following behind Anthony, I could only imagine the bullshit he has under his sleeves. I was in no mood for his nonsense yet my curiosity was getting the best of me.Anthony led us to the topest floor of his club. Have been here a number of God knows how many times and I know the dirty things that happen on this floor. This was a floor for mostly his prestigious men and women. They got the run for their money on this crazy floor and always ended up fulfilled. I’ve had my fair share sometimes. Yeah. Good crazy old days.I couldn't help but beam as I gazed at Anthony. “This was what you wanted me to see?” My fingers slipped into my pockets. “It’s been a while, Brother. I miss us having this fun and forgetting about our troubles.”“I never told you I needed this or I was in any form of trouble.”“Told me? Yeah, you never did. But not in trouble, lies,” he pulled out a stick of cigar, pointing it at me. “You mind?”“I quit smoking, but yes, I do,” I took the stick from him and fixed it
Alpha Leonardo;“What did you say that bastard wanted again from me?” I undid my tie knot.“To have a drink at the club with you. Probably, the two of you will finally sort out your differences,” Liam stated.“I don’t want to sort out any fucking differences. The Marons almost ended my life.”“But Anthony has nothing to do with it. Why punish him over the madness of his Father and brothers?” Liam fixed himself on my couch.Taking off my shirt, “It’s not just about his Father and Brothers. I hate that brait, Anthony, as well. He has always been a thorn in my flesh.” I threw my shirt on the bed.“And you chose to stay in his hotel. Never seen anyone who stays in the hotel of their enemies.”“I’m the Alpha, remember? Besides, I avoided my hotels because of Freya and Aunty Marigold. I don’t want the ladies nagging me,” I reached for my belt and undid it. “You should be grateful you have people who care. My parents never gave a damn about me,” he chuckled hard. “Fuck those old people. The
“What about my Mother?” My heart ran to my throat.“I can’t speak about it over the phone. You’ll have to come down to the hospital.”“Ok. I'm on my way,” I stated and hung up the call. “Daisy, I need to rush down to the hospital,” I handed my uniforms to her, “Help me take them to the laundry.”“What did they say about your Mother? Should I come with you?”“No, Daisy. I’ll meet you at home,” I rushed out of the room.“You’re with your purse, right?” Her voice echoed on my way out.“Yes.” I didn't know that I even grabbed the damn thing.I hurried out of the building. Luckily, I was able to get a cab closer to the entrance. The cab has just dropped off someone. I rushed in and the driver took me to the hospital.Arriving, I almost broke an ankle as my feet hastened into Mother’s ward. She was on the bed, sitting upright, screaming at a nurse in front of her. Mother was about to go into a fistfight when three other nurses held her back. The room was too chaotic for anyone to notice my
I hesitated for as long as I could remember, my mind darting everywhere, trying to figure out if I should do as instructed. Anthony was my boss. This was also my first day at work. A job that I was desperate about. Desperate to keep.Letting out a deep breath, my eyes shut momentarily before my body pivoted. 180 degrees. My hands were still covering my boobs. My gaze moved, meeting his.“Take them off,” his head slanted to the side.“What?” I feigned ignorance.“Your hands. You can’t wear a uniform with your hands covering your boobs,” he stated plainly. My face became red and hot as my hands slowly left my boobs. My boobs bounced at the impact. Anthony threw the uniform over my shoulder. Carefully, he slipped my hands into it, and arranged the uniform properly, knotting the belt at the side. His hands brushed my skin a number of times during this process, but his face held no expression. My heart raced most times when his hand friction with my boobs as he arranged the uniform. Stil
