Chapter 20: Winning Streak threatened

Now, I look at him. Trying not to breathe him in because he smells too good for comfort. “I know how much you hate me but for the next few months, you have to put up with me because I'm not going to let Ezra down. I'm not leaving, until everything is done.” I remind him because he seems to have forgotten that I'll be Ezra's project manager. Knox argued I can't do my job, and went as far as to dive deep into investigating my life but he found nothing behind my work life.

“For every minute you spend in my sights, on my territory that I exiled you from? I will make your life hell, Thalia.” he warns, and there's certainly no bluff behind it. I know when he's playing, and right now he's not, he could smash my head against the wall with a fucking smile.

“Fair enough, I understand and if I were in your position I would too.”

“Stop it,” he growls.

I frown, genuinely confused now.“I-I'm not doing anything, Knox.”

“Alpha Knox.” he instantly corrects.

“Right, sorry.” I nearly stutter. “Al

    KNOX Thalia has won every case in the last week, no lawyers I've tossed her way have been a match for her. Not once did I think she would become a lawyer, she lacked the spine it takes to get that job done. I used to believe in her potential but the girl that would uncontrollably start crying any time we argued or I raised my voice wouldn't win against the tough lawyers I paid. I went as far as getting lawyers from abroad, to stiffen the competition and if not win to at the very least be able to drag one of the cases out. Yet none of them succeeded, she's apparently good in the courtroom, wins in record time, and with remarkable banter while she's at it. One of the lawyers I sought declined the offer with the reason that he can't let a little girl disgrace him or his career a second time. I recently had my company audited and gave the case to Thalia, I'm incriminating myself to get to her, providing fake evidence too. “My superstar!” Thalia exclaims, noting Alpha Ezra and his da

    Her smile drops, and her eyebrows furrow as she stares blankly into my eyes. “Excuse me?”“Unbelievable, you still want to act innocent? Thalia, you couldn't brainwash me into making you my Luna so you go for him? Have you no shame, he's got a family.”“You're mistaken.” she nervously chuckles. “Ezra and I are like family.”I snicker, unable to control my laughter. They're family? “And yet you say his name like that? You both must be truly incestuous because as far as I know, family doesn't screw each other.” I sneer, and I should know considering I have a lot of sisters and cousins I'm close to.“You can say what you will about me but don't you dare utter anything of that nature against Ezra. Regardless of what atrocities your deranged brain must be conjuring, he loves his wife and kids very much. He's an honorable man….” she trails off, glaring at me. “Unlike most.”I shake my head, she's feigning innocence as if she doesn't know what I'm saying but she does, she's just so good at p

    NOVASeeing Thalia again after being forbidden from going on the floor she works felt good. I am aware It's hypocritical of me to miss her, and as a sister and aunt I dislike everything that occurred but as a friend? I love who she is. She might have been a terrible mother, mate, or whatnot but she's a good friend. Ever since I saw her covered in cement, claiming Knox didn't push her which in certain he did, we've talked daily. And no, I've not missed how she's been trying to avoid me so I brought it up and we ended up agreeing to be friends again, even if she goes no contact when she leaves. “We should totally get lunch at Fenny's.” I offer, and Thalia gasps.“She still runs the place? I love her food.”“Well not technically but on Fridays she cooks and lucky for us I made a permanent reservation for every Friday.”Her lips pull into a smile, the happiest I've seen her in the two days we've been catching up. “Should we go right now?”“Yeah, but can we stop at the pack house so I can

    I frown, my gaze shifting between Bella and Thalia. “Huh?”“She eats vegetables, so she's very pretty.” Bella explains and I finally connect the dots, she thinks Thalia is pretty and I always tell her pretty women ate and ate a lot of vegetables when they were young. “And her hair is shiny. Can I touch it?”“Bella,” Knox calls out in a panicked warning. “Come here.”“Just a tiny touch, tincy winy..” Bella pouts, flat out ignoring Knox.“Me too.” Katie Rose agrees, clapping her hands. Now both the kids are excited. Thalia feigns a laugh and squats down. “Go on.” she urges them, and they waste absolutely no time. They both stroke her hair and gush about how beautiful and soft it is. “I could do this forever.” Katie Rose sighs, pure satisfaction as she feels the strands of Thalia's hair.“Me too.” Arabella Venus agrees, looking up at Mariella. “Mommy you should eat some vegetables too like this lady. Your hair doesn't feel this nice.”I can't help but laugh at the remark. “Okay

    Too many questions, too close to him to not fantasize about the accusation. “Because you can.” he snaps, and I hardly get to react or so much so as to get a word in before his lips crash onto mine. Claiming them violently, and too darn hurtful. He's giving me both pain and pleasure, kissing me while purposefully biting my lips and I'm too consumed by lust to notice. “You should leave my territory.” he bites. A moan slips past my lips, consumed into my mouth. “I can't, not yet.” “I hate you.” he snaps, shoving me onto the mattress where I land with a bounce. My rob wasn't exactly fixed for this, it comes undone the moment he throws me, leaving me bare on the mattress as he stares at me like exactly what I became years ago, his prey. “I can't stand you, Thalia Rose Laurel.” “I know.” I nod, licking my lips. He leans over me, grabbing me at the wrists and pinning them above my head. His gaze sweeps over my hard nipples, the way in which my chest rises and falls from being in hi

I'm not blind to the way she looks at me, but if I fuck her? It'll be a damn shame to ghost her, that too an impossible one. The best I can do is keep it professional between us, at least until the night before she leaves, I'm a patient man. “Ugh, Ruston needs to fucking quit. Look at how lousy he plays, he's dragging the entire damn team down with him.” Amara frowns, staring at the TV screen like she could just jump inside. “You see that?” she quickly turns to me before drifting back to the basketball game we're watching. “Useless. Height doesn't cut it alone, Niko! Fucking play for goodness sake you darn spoiled rich brat.” I can't help but laugh at her, despite her trash against my team and complaints about the team she's supporting losing not once has she drifted from the TV. She stares like she could just go and score herself the

    THALIA Ever since I came back to Flame Valley I've been nothing but confused, I knew coming here would definitely mess me up in a way but things have gone from bad to worse and I'm afraid I'm becoming the girl my mother walked in half dead on. I promised myself I would never see that look in her eyes again because I don't want to hurt another person I love but I'm afraid I'm failing, I'm falling short of life. Even with my hair done and a pantsuit on, I don't recognize the woman I've grown accustomed to loving. I'm starting to feel just as stupid as Knox claims I am. Not willing to lose the one part of my life that pushes me to live another day, I call my therapist Lana. I have at least thirty minutes before we leave for the last of the Conference today, which I'm fairly looking up to. “Thalia.” Lana smiles at me from my laptop screen, looking as flawless as always. I wonder if that's why people like me trust her with our flaws because she eliminated any surface ones she migh

    “Did you say something?” Knox glares, his eyes piercing.I nod, fully pumped on advice from my therapist. “I said I didn't offer, you bullied me into it, and honestly I'm quite sick of your behavior.”“Ms Laurel.” Amara hisses, warning me I'm poking the bear.“No, let me say this because if I don't say it today then he'll think I am okay with the way things are.” my gaze drifts back to Knox, noting Ryan's return which gives some sort of comfort. “I'm not.”I match his glare. “I'm so fucking done with you bullying me, trying to find faults in my work, which news flash!” I lowly chuckle, “There's none. There aren't any because I'm good at my job. I'm the god darn best lawyer in this region and if me not beating your top lawyers wasn't enough? Try a little Google search.”Ryan laughs, pulling Amara away. “Get in the car, star player.” and there goes my support team.Knox watches me, he didn't expect the outburst. “You should watch your fucking tone when you talk to me.”“I won't, because

    THALIA I walk into the boardroom with supreme urgency, I shouldn't be here but Alpha Ezra canceled because Luna Serenity got worse. Everyone from Flame Valley is in their seats when we arrive, but none of them expect to see me but Knox seems pissed at my presence and it's not because I'm nowhere dressed for the meeting. “Good afternoon, all.” Amara greets, settling down beside me. “Sorry, I'm late. Shall we start?” “Where's Alpha Ezra?” I don't look at him as I answer, “He had an emergency so I'll be substituting for him.” “An emergency?” he scoffs, “He should have communicated with me before resorting to—” “His wife is sick, you insensitive psycho.” I snap, my tone surprising even myself. He's not here because he didn't want to cancel yet again.” Ryan clears his throat, “I'll get the projector.” “Thank you, Ry.” I smile, my voice much softer and calmer as opposed to when I spoke to Knox. Ryan leaves, and Amara gets to work on connecting with the rest of our team

    Mariella’s lip curls up with contempt, “You look lovely, princess.” she feigns a smile. “You did so good, Arabella.” Nova praises. “I'm sorry I made a fuss.” she pouts, looking up at Rose.” “It's okay, I know you were scared but you need to remember that even if it seems like a bad day, you'll be fine, smile and keep your chin up because when the sun comes up tomorrow, it'll be a new day.” Arabella nods vigorously, “Okay, auntie.” “Mommy, can we surprise Daddy with my hair?” Katie Rose asks Nova. “Yep, I'll call him when he's out of surgery.” Nova smiles, petting her head. “Is he okay?” I frown. “Yes, he's the surgeon.” Nova laughs, noting my confusion. “Er, so what are we doing next?” “Thalia and I were going to get our nails done.” I tell her, “We want to look deadly in court.” “That's great, Mariella you could use a new set.” Nova’s head tilts, looking at Mariella's nails.

I'm checking my hairstyle when a familiar face pops up behind me in the mirror.“Nova!” I call out, whirling around. My squeal alerts Thalia too.Nova smiles, waving at me while the little girls with her squeal. “Hi, Amara.”“Auntie Thalia Rose!” both girls scream, running to meet her.“hi, darlings,” Thalia matches their excitement. “I love your matching dresses.”“Thank you,” they say in unison, hugging Thalia. I turn my attention to the Thalia lookalike. “Hello.” she grins, looking even more like Thalia.“Amara, this is Mariella, Knox's finance, his kid. My kid.” Nova tells me, gesturing to each individual. My gaze gets stuck on the kids, one looks very much like Thalia.“Say hi to my friend.” Thalia prompts.Nova's daughter stares between us, scratching her head. “Are you a lawyer too?”“Yes.”“Cool.” They both swoon, “I'm Katie R

    “Shit.” “Is this the meeting that was so important?” I glare at her, watching as she wipes her mouth clean with the back of her hand. “This does not classify as a meeting.” “I know,” she swallows, making me wonder what else she's swallowed under the pretext of this meeting. “We just-” “When you're here, you work. You can fuck your boyfriend on your own time, damsel.” I warn, her nickname rolling off my tongue with vile ease. “I wasn't fucking him,” she shoots back, her gaze twinkling with irritation. “Not yet.” And there it is, she's acting smart because I interrupted her orgasm, one she wouldn't have gotten from simply fingering herself while this thing did absolutely nothing. “My building is a reputable place of work, not a brothel Thalia.” “Ms Laurel, to be professional of course.” I nod, falling right into her trap. “Because you've exhibited professional conduct?” “I'm sorry, it's my fault.” The knockoff jumps in, his face is so complacent I want to punch him u

As we leave the premises, my lawyers are sharing satisfaction and complaints to address with other department lawyers while Nova and Thalia walk ahead of everyone, if anything they were first to leave the premises.“You looked sleepy in there,” Nova tells her, making her sigh.Oh, good it's not just me that noticed it.“I'm so exhausted.” “You didn't sleep enough?”She snorts, moving closer to Nova. “Keir came over yesterday afternoon and overworked me.”“Attorney, Laurel!” Nova gasps.“Hey,” Thalia nudges her. “It was all innocent.

    ”Daddy, mommy!” Arabella calls out, and I immediately drop my paintbrush to give her my full attention before she starts to whine about Katie Rose. “Wow,” I look up from my painting, ready to be excited over whatever crap she's conjured up but what I see stuns me to silence. She's painted an elephant, the details are so realistic, and even with the bright strokes of her paint you can tell how great is. “Daddy, look!” she grins, but he's too occupied with his own painting to look. “It's beautiful.” he praises, his gaze glued on his masterpiece. “Alpha Knox,” I call out, tapping him lightly. Only then does he look at what Arabella painted. “Is it pretty? Do you like it?” Arabella asks, her haze flickering between us.“Very pretty.” Alpha Knox affirms.“It's amazing Bella, where did you learn to paint like that?” I gulp, still in awe of her drawing. This is something you see in museums, something that you pay thousands of dollars for.“Daddy taught me.”My gaze shifts to Alpha Kn

    “What?” I peek into the mirror, catching a dreadful look in her eyes. “To be the auntie,” she snorts. “Since I will never be a mother I guess I have to settle for being the cool Auntie.” “Thalia.” “I'm fine, I like it.” she sniffs, and I feel something sink inside me. Shame? Regret? Sympathy? I don't know, it could be all. “Your brother was right, I don't deserve to be a mother but I'm good Auntie. This is my role in kids' lives, always the Auntie, never the Mom. And best of all, I get to spoil all my nieces and nephews.” “You make an amazing mom, Thalia.” “No thanks,” she bitterly laughs, choking a little. “There is a little bit too much trauma surrounding that experience for me and on the bright side, I don't have to deal with Knox on a co-parent basis.” she hisses. “Umm, what's for lunch?” she asks, noting my silence. ”Chicken wings.” “How about a milkshake?” she muses, trying to sound optimistic but a known sadness still lingers in her voice. “Thalia that's

The resemblance is-“”It’s scary, flower.“ he finishes for her”Umm,“ Katie Rose muses, “Who is Flower?”Thalia's cheeks flash as she raises her hand. ”Me, that's what he calls me.”Why?” both girls ask, making Keir laugh.”Because he's my boyfriend.” Thalia tells them, but that only makes Katie Rose scrunch up her nose.”You're prettier than flowers,” Katie Rose shrugs.”Yes, and she's Auntie Thalia Rose.“ B

I simply saw an opportunity to give him a surprise party. However, planning a surprise party for him when I'm under the same roof as him is going to be difficult, more so because of the kids. And yet, here I am, shopping for party decorations with both kids, under the guise of a co-workers birthday. I did purchase a few things online but there were some things I couldn't find hence the store runs. This is my third store this morning and I still can't find the right color balloons, which means I have to go to yet another store but just in case, I purchase three sets of backup apple green balloons. “Okay, that’s it. ”Mommy, look!“ Katie Rose squeals, heading straight for the wings on her left.
