Two days later….Oliver groaned as he made his way down the stairs making sure to avoid any kind of confrontation with either his siblings, or anyone at all.He past couple of days had been hell for all of them. After the whole saga with Laura, Damon had called her father, and a new agreement had been signed, just to keep her away. Turns out she didn’t want him. Apparently, Frank Richardson was deep in debt, and Laura as usual, had come to stir trouble.“Oliver.” A soft voice called from behind. Making him turn around to see who it was. Hell, he didn’t even need to turn to know who it was.“Don’t tell me not to go, Jas. I simply can’t stay away anymore.” He said, swallowing hard as he placed his shaking hand into his pocket and tries not to look at the friend of the woman he loved.Jasmine laughed lightly. “Actually, I was coming to tell you to go to her. My friend can be quite stubborn at times, but I think she has gotten enough space to last her a lifetime.” Jasmine said, then whist
Kayla Dawson stirred as she opened her eyes to the sound of the birds chirping outside. She could tell, even before she fully opened her eyes, that it was already bright outside.She sat up on her bed, yawning as she looked at the window which was slightly opened, just the way she liked to leave it, and smiled.In just a few hours, she was getting married, and to the man of her dreams.Dean.Dean McHoward.They had been fated mates before they had even been born as their families had agreed to get them married to strengthen the already strong bond between them. And it helped greatly that they had both grown to be fond of each other and love each other so much that not one voice had been raised against their marriage.Kayla smiled as she thought of just how sweet Dean had always been to her, making sure she was protected and loved.Even when there had been questions about what was going to happen if they had found their mates, it had all worked out for the best as both had turned eight
Kayla narrowed her eyes as she looked around her. Questions popping into her head as she did so.Should she even be in here?What was Dean going to say if he found out that she was about to spend her last night as a single woman in a nightclub? It’s not like he had banned her from going to clubs or anything. But he had always been super possessive and had insisted that he go with her to clubs.Feeling a little bit nervous, she turned to look at Bella who was standing just beside her, looking around. But unlike Kayla, her sister had the widest smile on her face, and at a point, she could swear there was a twinkle in her eyes.These kinds of gatherings were more of Bella’s thing, than Kayla’s“Are we just going to stand here all night? Or we are going to do what we came here for?” Bella asked, turning to Kayla with a pout and a raised eyebrow. Surprisingly, she had enjoyed the past few hours she had spent with her sister. Which was not something she had expected at all. And it was for t
Kayla woke up with a start.Something was very very wrong. And she could tell, even as she leaped off the bed in confusion as she wondered what it was.Her head felt like someone was hammering away at it, and for a moment, she forced herself to close her eyes and try to remain calm as she regained her composure. Perhaps it hadn’t been a great idea to jump off the bed like that, even for a werewolf.Just how much had she had to drink last night? She could remember Bella cajoling her to drink shot after shot of the dreaded golden liquid and wished she hadn’t agreed.Fuck.As soon as her thudding head calmed down to an extent, she slowly opened her eyes and turned to the bed, intent on searching for her phone, when she saw something that almost sent her heart flying out of her mouth.Kayla stood in absolute shock and horror, staring at the figure that lay on the bed, as her heart began to this loudly.What was going on?Who was that?Why was he naked?Why was he on her bed?So many questi
Oliver stood in front of the bed, staring at the brushed up woman that lay there. Inside of him was like a damn volcano waiting to explode.What had the moon goddess been thinking setting him up like this?A mate?Who said he wanted a mate?That was the last thing on his mind as it was. He didn’t want her. Period!But he couldn’t help himself as he drank in her features. Full curly mass of brown hair, smooth face, not so straight but cute nose, and a lip to die for. Heck it was the first thing that had healed, and he had been forced to acknowledge just how plump they were. And red too.His wolf seemed to approve as it continued to prance around restlessly.Despite himself, Oliver tore his gaze away from her face and let it roam, down her body, feeling something tighten inside of him.When he had carried her inside, she had been completely naked, and it had taking all the reserve he had to take her in, through the back, in his equally naked form, and straight to his bedroom. The skin
“Can you tell me where you have been all this while? We have been looking everywhere for you, but you decided to take off, and come back so late in the night, even after all you have done and all the disgrace you have brought to this family!” Her father’s voice was the first thing Kayla heard as she walked into the house.She had literally escaped from her saviors, after she had woken up from yet another round of unconsciousness that had been filled with weird dreams. According to Tamara, who had been the one to treat her wounds, she had fainted because of something in the herbs she had given her.“Dad, I am back. And you don’t have to worry now. Im sorry for all the trouble I have caused.” Kayla said, trying her best not to get so emotional in the presence of her father, who she knew wouldn’t appreciate any form of weakness in front of him.Alpha Dawson looked at her with his piercing eyes, before shaking his head. “I will see you at dinner. And then we can decide your fate.” He said,
Three years later..Kayla stared at her reflection in the mirror with a big smile on her face. Today, for the first time in a long time, she was stepping her two legs into a club, and if anything, she was actually happy. It had taken her a long time to get to where she was, so the least she could do for herself, was celebrate.Opening her own little delivery company hadn’t been a joke. But it was three years and counting, and as a little celebration for her efforts, she had decided that she and her employees go out and have as much fun as they could.Which was why she was no putting on the hottest shade of red lipstick she could find that suited her skin tone. And it was pooping, if she could say so herself! Why she had shied away from that color, was beyond her.She let her eyes trail down her body in the full length mirror, loving the way the leather dress she was wearing, hugged her body so perfectly, bringing out her subtle but very visible curves. Her best friend, and business par
Kayla followed Jasmine’s lead as they walked straight to the bar. The others had gone to the dance floor, forgetting that they had all come together, apparently. It was a joy to see them having fun.“Let’s do shots!” Jasmine said excitedly, giggling as the flirty bartender winked at her.Kayla pouted her lips as a flash of memory from the last time she had done something like that, entered her mind. She had ended up getting into big, big trouble, and looking at the bartender filling those shot glasses, she couldn’t help feeling a sense of deja vu. What if it happened again?“I don’t think that is a good idea, Jasmine. I’m all for the fun and games, but I think I will settle for one glass of cocktail instead.” She said, eyeing the glasses that the bartender placed in front of them.The man who had winked at Jasmine earlier, winked at her. “I’m sure you would like it, beautiful.” He said with a toothy grin, before walking away and going over to attend to other customers.Kayla smiled t

It took Kayla being dragged to the back of an alleyway to come to a screeching halt, pulling her hand away from Dean. “What the fuck do you think you are doing, Dean?” Kayla gasped, hair flying as she rubbed her sore arm. “Where did you even come from?” She already had a bigger problem to deal with, and he thought he could just materialize from nowhere? “I just wanted to talk to you.” Dean said softly, stepping back and running his fingers through his hair why Kayla watched. And for the first time since he had pulled her away from the front of that office building, she allowed herself look at him.Really look at him.And what she saw was far from the Dean she had known and grown up with. He loooked a mess. A hot mess. “And what do you want to talk to me about? I thought I made things clear to you on the phone?” Kayla not out, looking around discreetly to see if there was an exit from the alleyway apart from the one which he had put himself in front of.There was.Thank goodness.Dea
Kayla followed Jasmine outside and into the elevator as they continued to chatter about what Jasmine envisioned her dream wedding to be like. “You know I like my things sparkly and girly. I’m not gonna miss any of that on my wedding day!” Jasmine proclaimed, raising her voice a little in the empty elevator as it closed.Oliver had texted her that he was about thirty minutes away, and had asked her to come down to meet him in the parking lot, since there was no time to meet each other in the office because heading to their destination.So Jasmine had asked her to accompany her to her office where Kayla was to help her organize while she waited for Oliver. “Well, you know what suits you, ma’am.” Kayla laughed, waiting as the elevator started it’s journey down to Jasmines floor.The doors opened with Jasmine mocking Kayla. “As my chief bridesmaid, you would wear a silver sparkiling dress with orange shoes. My wedding needs to he aesthetically pleasing. And you won’t be left out!” She was
Kayla was smiling when she roused from the satisfying sleep she had had the previous night. She blinked as she stared at the ceiling which faced her directly, trying hard to quench the inflow of memories that came at her the moment she opened her eyes. She had been so close to confessing her love for Oliver the previous night. So close!With a sigh, she pushed the blanket off of her, and got off the bed, stopping briefly when her sore muscles hummed deliciously from how much she had used them the previous night. But admist everything, she couldn't help but remember something that had plagued her mind at different moments of the night.They hadn't used protection. And they hadn't made love only one. Or even just on the rooftop.Oliver had taken her back to the bedroom, and proceeded to show her what she had been missing in the bedroom all this time she had tried to put didtance between the both of them. As she got into the bathroom, Kayla couldn't help but rub at her belly, while she s
Kayla pulled herself up on the slab, feeing nicely sated, but not to the extent she wanted, as there was still a throbbing inside of her that she had not yet satisfied.She said nothing as she reached out for Oliver’s neck, wrapping her fingers around it and pulling him down for a kiss. It was short, but lasted long enough to give her the energy and tingling she craved. And the taste of herself on his lips, drove her crazy.Never in her life would she have thought that she would taste her own juices. Well, until Oliver.Once she let go, pulling away, and pushed him slightly away from her, seeing him frown in confusion as she got down from the slab and was on her knees before he could even do anything to stop her. That is , if he would.“What are you_” Oliver asked, when his brows rose in realization as to what she was doing.With her abilities, she had him turned, so he was now leaning on the slab, while she was fumbling with the zipper of his trousers.It was fairly easy to pop open
When Kayla kissed him, Oliver had been a bit taken aback, but quickly recovered by pulling her closer to him, and inclining his head to the side so he could deepen the kiss. 'Please lock te doors that lead to the rooftop, and make sure nobody interrupts, Benedict.' Oliver said to his sentinel, who happened to be Kayla's driver and bodyguard some days, using the packlink. He could hear the exact time the doors locked, and heard Benedict take a stance just inside the door. 'You don't need to stay that close! And dim the lights.' 'Yes, Alpha.' there was amusement in his tone when he replied, before walking away from his position, to somewhere a bit farther down. Good. Oliver thought. H e didn't want the pack hearing of his shinanigans on the roof. Kayla moaned against his mouth, just as the partially bright lights, deemed. "Oh.." She aid, pulling away from the kiss, just to look around for a few seconds. "Did you do that?" Kayla asked, running her hands up and down his chest. Even thro
Kayla tensed at not just what he had said, but how serious im he sounded. From the distance, she could hear how quiet everywhere had gone. It was like it was just them around, with no one to interrupt. And somehow, she liked it.She and her Alpha, in their own world. Her alpha…What was she thinking calling him hers?“Kayla… about the deal I made with your father..” the way he trailed off, had her tensing up the more.What happened to the deal? Was he going to tell her he wasn’t interested in helping again, and wanted to withdraw his funding? Was that it?“Yes? I’m listening..” Kayla prompted shakily, but managed to hold her voice.Oliver leaned forward. “I’m tired of pretending Kayla. That contract….it’s void. Never existed in the first place. It was just a farce made up by me to keep you here_” his words were cut off, by Kayla lifting herself off her seat and into the air with such speed that she felt a bit dazed.If not for her wolf, she was sure she would have face planted on the
Kayla wasn’t sure why, but she felt like something was off with Oliver, the moment he came up and joined her on the rooftop.She had been standing there for a while, and staring in awe at the sight before her, unable to believe that he had in fact, prepared this for their dinner. It looked like something out of the movies.“You look beautiful.” Oliver said, walking over to where she stood, and extending a hand to her.Kayla blushed. “And you look good too.” Compared to her, Oliver straight up looked like he had walked out of the men’s runway in Paris or something. With the dark wool shirt on top, and the jeans, he looked so good. And those boots too…dang..She on the other hand, and argued with Oliver’s stylist who had just happened to be waiting g for her once she had come back from work, and had won. She had almost made him cry, but hell…And now she regretted it, because her low heel shoe, and flared midnight blue dress, was nothing compared to him. And her hair too that had been p
Flashback... Oliver made his way down the stairs for the fourth time that evening, smirking to himself as he anticipated what was to come tonight. It was his twentieth birthday, and his family had pretty much outdone themselves in preparation of what was being described as the coming of age of the century. At first, it was meant tobe a surprise. But how do you surprise an alpha's son? He had pretty much heard the very first conversation they had had about the party, and had made himself visible, unable to hold his excitement. "Oliver! Can you please get me a scissors on your way back? This one is broken!" Darcy called from somewhere outside. Oliver groaned. He should have stayed out of it when he had first heard about their plans.Oliver picked up the scissors and was making his way downstairs when Laura suddenly blocked his path, grinning from ear to ear.“I got you a birthday present.” Laura said almost immediately, pushing a box to his chest.The force of the shove almost had him
