ELINNA

With the amount of things I'd been dealing with in the past month, it was only allowed that I would forget things I don't seem Imoortant at the time.

Things like the stranger who I had met in the hospital that night after the shoot out.

Mark Luxembourg.

I'd been coming down the elevator, my whole mind wanting to go to my car so I can get home as quickly as possible.

When I got to the ground floor, my phone started buzzing and as I searched through my bag for it, I bumped into someone and my bag fell from my hand.

“I’m so sorry. I didn't realize where I was going. Forgive me if I hurt you.”

I was too busy packing the things that fell from my bag that I didn't even look up at who was in front of me.

I heard a scoff.

“Elinna? Mrs Elinna?”

I recognied his voice right away and I looked up to see him with a smile.

“I’m right, it is you.”

I felt more at ease knowing that it was him and I returned the smile, taking his hand and letting him help me rise to my feet.

    ELINNAAs I guessed, the table was very full. So full that they even had to bring in another table and add to it so that they could put all the dishes. “Woah, seems like a buffet. Now I'm beginning to think it's too much. We could have put all this to better use.”I didnt want to to seem like I was a glutton and if it was left to just me, I would order as much as I could because I liked food nd I liked to eat a lot but he might not like that and I didn't want to give a wrong first impression. “Oh, don't worry about that. Every drop of food that's left over from the restaurant gets given to the shelter and people on the streets. I'm all about charity work.”Well, I guess that made me feel a whole lot more better. We dug in and started eating and as I tasted every dish, I loved them more. The food tasted very good and I had little to no complaints about the presentation, dressing and all that. “So tell me Mrs Elinna, why's a married woman like you going on a date with a man like me?

  • Arranged Bride For The Lycan King   1: Odd Odds

    ELINNAI should’ve known today would be a mess. Honestly, luck has never been on my side.Still, I kept hoping things would change. Just once. Just one good day. But today wasn’t that day.My name is Elinna Wright. I’m the bastard daughter of Alpha Tim Wright, leader of the Sunshine Pack. He never claimed me. I wasn’t born out of love—far from it.My mother died giving birth to me. My father blamed me for it. He hated me from the moment I took my first breath. He never showed me kindness, and things got worse after he married someone else.Early this morning, my step mother, Gina, had asked me to go to the farmers market to pick up some radishes..I'd never understood her obsession with radishes and they never made her cooking taste good..in fact, it tasted even worse than it normally was.As soon as I got to the market, the only shop that sold it was closed and I just stood there looking because I knew that if I went home without them, it would be hell.She hated me without bounds for

  • Arranged Bride For The Lycan King   2: My Sister

    ELINNA Ben kept to his promise and came back when he was down speaking to my dad. “Is everything okay? What did he say?” He didn't speak as he sat down and just stared at one spot.“It’s nothing. Just work stuff.”I should have known something was wrong. His smile was too tight, his eyes avoiding mine just a fraction too long. But I wanted so badly to believe in him - in us.I placed my hand on his shoulder to get his attention. “Are you okay?”He pulled away slightly before catching himself. "Just pack business," he said, forcing a laugh. "Nothing for you to worry about."The way he said it - like I was some child who couldn't handle grown-up matters - made my chest ache. But I swallowed the hurt. Maybe he was just stressed about our anniversary tomorrow. “Let's forget about that. Tomorrow is our anniversary. Three Year anniversary. I have a surprise planned for you.” He added. My stomach did a backflip and I couldn't keep my excitement as I clapped like a little girl. T

  • Arranged Bride For The Lycan King   3: Not Valued

    ELINNAThe moment Lily's eyes met mine, the world stopped. Her guilty expression told me everything I needed to know—this wasn't some accidental meeting. This was planned.Then Ben turned.His face changed too fast to catch—shock, irritation, then that smooth, practiced calm I'd come to recognize. The mask he wore when lying."Elinna," he began, already stepping toward me with outstretched hands.I didn't let him finish. The pain was a living thing, clawing up my throat, but I refused to break in front of them. Not here. Not like this.Lily's giggle followed me as I fled, the sound like shards of glass scraping against my ribs.Helen found me in the lobby bathroom, my trembling hands gripping the sink. The beautiful black dress—the one I'd chosen hoping Ben would finally propose—was now damp with tears."I'll kill him," Helen hissed, dabbing at my ruined makeup.I shook my head. "Don't." My voice surprised me—cold where it should have cracked. "They're not worth it."But the hollownes

    ELINNA“Alpha Tim, welcome to my house. You say you have my bride?”My father shoved me forward with unnecessary force. I stumbled slightly before catching myself, forcing my chin up despite the way my pulse pounded in my throat.Carlisle's golden eyes - not blue as I'd first thought in the dim lighting, but a mesmerizing molten gold - raked over me with predatory intensity. His nostrils flared slightly as he inhaled my scent, those unnerving eyes missing nothing from my trembling fingers to the rapid rise and fall of my chest."She is perfect," he finally declared, and the relief that flooded me was so strong my knees nearly buckled.From the corner of my eye, I saw Lily's face twist in jealousy and Ben's fingers curl into fists at his sides.“Excuse us. I would like to speak to her alone.”The butler led them away and only the both of us stayed in the room.“You can look at me. I won't bite.”He has short black hair with the best blue eyes I'd ever seen. He was built, enough to make

    My eyes caught a glimpse of the dress and I wondered what it was like. Gina hadn't called me when picking it out. She had in fact gone with the one person who wanted nothing good for me.Sarah.I stilled my mind as they began to move around and get my hair, make up and nails ready.What made me open my eyes was the strong smell of mist in front of me.“When your husband comes close to you tonight, at least he should smell something pleasant. Now, place your upper body closer to the dispenser and open your legs so I can place the other one.”My legs? For…oh.I felt myself turn red but I tried hard not to show it. I'd completely forgotten about that. Was I ready for it?This was one of the many times I wished my mother was here. She would have been the one to tell me about what to expect.She was presently too sick to talk and I didn't want to tell her about the marriage so it wouldn't upset her more.I put on the dress and it fit like a glove..I wonder how she got my measurements corre

    ELINNAI sat up on the bed and looked at him like I hadn't heard him right.“S-Sorry?”He had a very scary look on his face and I wondered if I had genuinely done something wrong.“Don't make me say it again. I said strip.”I stood up from the bed and my hands shook as I looked at him. I removed my shorts that I had changed into and then took off my shirt. I remained handing in my panties and my bra.I wondered what he wanted to do so I just obeyed. After all, I had made a vow to do so.Carlisle's nostrils flared as he drank in the sight of me. "All of it."His voice startled me that I took a step back before I started undressing.The fact that I was standing naked in front of a man for the first time was not what bothered me..it was the fact that my body was shaking terribly while standing in front of him.“Get on the bed. Spread your legs.”W-What? What did that mean?He surely didn't mean that, did he?I got on the bed, my fingertips and feet cold in fear. Who was this man that I w

    ELINNAFOUR YEARS LATERI didn't expect it to be this sunny. After all, it had been a while since I'd been in the United States.It was rainy over in Europe, Berlin to be exact.Oh well, now that I was here, I'll take what I can get.The private jet landed just at the clock struck twelve but we had an early lunch because we had to wake up early that morning to meet up with the department time.“Welcome to the United States, Miss Wright.”I smiled at the pilot as he held out his hand for me to take as I descended the stairs.My bodyguard brought out our luggage and even though I had spent all my life here, it still felt like a foreign country to me.“Thank you, Lenny. I take it you'll be going back to Berlin now?”He smiled.“Far from it. You seem to forget that I am your personal pilot meaning that anywhere you are, I am. I am to wait for you to give me an order.”“Forgive me, I often forget.”From the distance, I could see the black car driving up to us.“Mum, can we go now? I'm goin

    CARLISLEGomez had reached out to her. He had called her in front of me and as the phone rang, my heart beat in my chest, wondering what she was going to say when she picked up. “Hello? Who's this?”I gave Gomez a go ahead. “Is this Elinna Evergreen?”She didn't answer immediately. “Yes, this is she. Who is this, again?”“This is Gomez. I'm Carlisle's right hand man.”She burst out laughing. “Did he send you to me? He said he wanted to kill me. Has he asked you to lure me back to the pack?”Gosh, from the way she was talking, I could tell that she was very mad. I really want to know what he had said to her that day he went to her office and the day that he had called her here. “Elinna, please hear me out. That's far from what happened. Listen, he wants to explain what happened to you. Carlisle is not the same anymore. But he's fine now and he heard everything that happened. He wants to apologise for everything the other guy did.”If she was running away from me, it was a valid r

    ELINNA“What? What do you mean you're coming to New York?” Brad smiled into the phone. “I mean I'm coming to New York. I have a deal to close and also an excuse to see you and Chase! I've missed you guys so much!”Chase would be so happy when I tell him about this. He didn't get to see Brad before we left back here and he was so close to Brad. “You don't seen as happy as I thought you would. Don't you want to see me?”I gave him a look. “What? How can you say that? Of course I'm happy that you want to come. Hurry up, when is your flight?” I knew that he was going to check his planner. Brad had a very terrible memory and I had to make him buy a planner and sticky notes so that he would remember everything that he needed to do. “Oh, it's this Saturday. I should be with you by Monday morning. It's going to be a very long flight.”Well, we didn't really feel the stress of the flight because we used the private jet so there was a lot of comfortability. “Well, I would be very honored

    CARLISLEHe was back.After all these years, he came back.He ruined my life back then and now, just when I thought I could finally have my life back, that bastard was back.“Gomez, why didn't you tell me? Did you think I wouldn't find out?”Gomez kept staring at his feet.“My King, I couldn't bear to tell you the truth. I mean, after all these years that we thought that we had won against him, I couldn't bring myself to tell you that he was back. You would be so disappointed.”I could understand that but what if hebhad gone ahead to do something that didn't want to? I would have to take responsibility for it.“Let’s leave that. I don't know when he's going to be back so we have to hurry up and find out what he wants this time around. Did he go anywhere with me?”From the way Gomez recoiled, I could tell that he had done something he wasn't supposed to.“He went to see her.”My heart sank to the bottom of my feet.I stood up from my chair and crossed the room to meet him, hoping that

    ELINNA“Are you okay? What's wrong?”I gathered myself together and forced a smile, not liking the pain that was shooting through mybhead. I had warned Ice not to shout in my head but I guess the pain I felt didn't matter.The pain didn't last for long though.“Yes, I'm fine. Let's get going. I just thought I forgot something.”As she walked ahead of me, I tried to wonder what the hell had just happened.“Ice, what the hell was that? Why did you shout at me like that?”Helen entered the car before me.“I’m sorry for the way I raised my voice but I did it to warn you. I mean, you couldn't let you talk about Chase. I don't want you telling anyone about Chase until I'm sure that they're clean. You'd be surprised how good demons are at hiding themselves.”What? Helen? Possessed? That was crazy to even imagine.But I couldn't imagine it too until I saw the demon in Carlisle.“Do you think she's possessed too?”I mean, her coming to look for me out of nowhere was a very suspicious thing but

    ELINNA“What did you say about the new investor? I was on a call when you came in the other time and I was distracted.” Lizzy rolled her eyes at me. “I said he came in to see the place and he said he was looking forward to meeting you the next time he came.”Mmm, at least this time, there was no funny story about our investor being possessed. I wondered if Lizzy would believe it if I told her. I highly doubted it. The way she hated Carlisle, you'd think he was the one who created the devil. “Why didn't he just wait till I was back before coming? Now he had to make a double trip.” She thought about it for a moment then shrugged. “He had already made plans and he had a trip for Japan the next day so I'm guessing he wanted to finish up business in this part of the world.”That made sense…it was lunch time and my stomach was actually very hungry. My body was so tired and I was sleepy. When the bell rang, I just put my pen down and rested my head beteeen my hands because I couldn't

    CARLISLEBy the time I woke up, the moon was in the sky.My whole body felt like it had been beating to it's ends with a very big stick and I could barely move. My throat was so parched and it hurt so much when I swallowed.I managed to reach for the bell on my nightstand and rang it. I don't remember the last time I used that bell because I liked doing things myself.The bell was to call for maids or guard when I needed help.Gosh, why couldn't I remember what I had done to make me feel like this?The door opened and Gomez ran in.“My Liege, you're awake. You took a long nap.”“Gomez, get me water and some food. Also some pain killers. Now.”He looked up at me and froze, staring right at me like I had just spoken some foreign language.“Why are you still standing there? Go!”He uses his legs, running out of the room..I managed to gather myself and get out of bed, setting my eyes on the couch beside the window..“What the hell is going on?” I whispered as I sat down.Gomez walked pac

Do you think that if he had decided to harm you or kill you, he won't have succeeded?”Since I got home and called for Ice, I'd been getting an earfull..“And who will be blamed for this? Who do you think will have to take the fall for your irresponsible actions, Elinna?! I will. Because I was supposed to be watching you but you put yourself in harm's way!”The fact that she was in my head and she was shouting just made things worse. I had a very bad headache and I had to deal with it. I knew that I shouldn't have gone to smart talk him but I couldn't help it.There was just something about him that made me so angry.“Ice please stop shouting. I didn't mean to. He asked to see you,.I panicked. I thought he wouldn't be able to sense you since you left.”I just laid down on the bed and let the cool breeze hit me. I'd been through
