I had been all crazy the day before yesterday, what if boss shows up at work today?Where would I hide?After that night, Mr Moonstone dropped me at home and Cormac was there right at my doorstep waiting for me.That little mouse made me add to my indebtedness. I boarded a cab to the restaurant where I walked and the moment I saw Mr Moonstone's car at the lobby, I almost fainted. "You're doomed, Reyna!" I lamented, dragging my feet in. "You're two minutes late!" Mary, one of my colleagues at work said as I made my way to the cloak room. I rolled my eyes at her, picking up my uniform from my locker. "Don't start, Mary. There's still 10 minutes until my night shift.""You have gone viral, Reyna." Sara, who was known as a social media freak, announced as she scurried in. I chuckled, shaking my head.

Adeline's POV I stood in the waiting room, my face buried in my palms. I was damn worried, what if something happened to Aiden? What could be the reason behind his sudden breakdown? None of Aiden's family accompanied me down here, I was alone. Left solo to handle my own problems. I didn't expect much from them though. This is what they've been waiting for, isn't it? To see Aiden weary and in pains. "Moon Goddess, please keep Aiden safe for me." I mumbled in prayers. "Mrs Albert, the doctor needs to see you in his office. Please follow me." A nurse said and I nodded, running after her to the doctor's office. "How's he doing now?" I asked, jittering. Maverick shook his head gravely before pushing some papers forward. I squinted my brows at him with curiosity gripping my weary heart. "A test was being run on your husband and we found neurotoxin in his system. All these while he his medications was being switched." Maverick explained. I stared at the papers, tears

He rolled my eyes at her. "Yes it is, a benefit is attached yet doom looms too. Don't worry, I can make it right." She grinned, a proud smile settling on her face. "Can I have that pearl?" "Here." Thane dropped it on her palm which was extended. She sighed, looking at it closely. "It's a beautiful curse, Thane. The young lady is cursed beautifully and... I'm quite surprised to see a curse so sweet." "Stop speaking in parables, Delilah.

They would make a perfect family— she, Dane and her unborn child. "What's wrong with you Billie? You've been all quiet ever since." Eva asked when she noticed the change in her mood.

Why would you want me to divorce him?""You will not counter anything I say, Adeline. His family promised alot but had fulfilled none, what's the point of staying in that marriage!" Mom protested, bringing out some documents from her bag. "Here are the divorce papers, sign them now and wake that blind husband of yours to scribble his signature too!" She commanded. "You do not control my life, mom! You only have that right when I was an omega and haven't found my voice. I always do what you want but I don't want to, anymore." I said, my voice laced with disgust. Mom looked surprised when she heard I wasn't the wolf less girl she used to know.

Adeline's POV I rushed down the stairs when I heard the noise of the commotion happening in the living room. Nora stood there in tears, her luggage by her side. Hudson threw an envelope at her. "Leave here and never come back. Go back to the suburbs where you came from!" He ordered, "Your services are no longer needed. After all you're only Aiden's nanny and he's grown now, we'll hire another maid who has manners!"I gulped down, seeing the tears streaming down Nora's place.

I held my chest, letting out a sigh of relief. Thank you, Lord."That bitch Adeline, she'll be ruined when I'm done with her." She swore, and moved to the bathroom, the door slamming behind her. "Fuck you!" I muttered, raising my middle finger. She wouldn't dare to try me, now that I know her plans are to kill every member of this family then I wouldn't let my guard down too. I tiptoed out of the room, clicking the door shut silently. I almost screamed when someone grabbed my collar. I turned around to see Aiden. Without waiting for me to speak, he dragged me to the room."Hi…" i waved at him when we got the room. He ignored my tooth smile and asked. "What were you doing in Gabriella's room?""I...I…" I began stuttering, short of words. Should I just tell him about what I saw? "Don't tell me she bullied you."

Adeline's POV I opened my eyes to see pair of worry filled ones. I gazed at everyone — my sister, mom, Sienna and Ryker."God, you're awake!" Mom rushed to my side, kissing my cheek.I frowned, wondering what had happened. All I remember was having a conversation with Reyna, how did I get here?"You fainted after the energy transfusion, Adeline." Reyna mentioned, her tone etched with nervousness. "Are you okay now?""Good Lord, Adeline. I was almost scared to death." Sienna held her chest, sighing in relief. Ryker was the only one who wasn't saying anything and I noticed the tension between her and Reyna. "My baby." Mom wiped her tears off her eyes, staring at me tenderly. I felt mesmerised, this was the first time I'd be experiencing so much motherly love. I hope this last longer and forever."I'm fine, you all. You don't have to worry." I tried to assure everyone but they still seemed tensed. "You didn't read all the contents in the book, Adeline." The Pack doctor, Rose mentione

Adeline's POV I dashed into the Sacred room, flipping through the pages of one of the books neatly arranged in the bookshelf. I just needed answers to my curiosity, I wanted to know a way to keep Reyna alive; since the Pack Doctor had made me to understand that aborting the baby would be a big risk as my womb was still tender.I returned the book and picked another and on the front page, was body written, 'Moon-Twin bonding; rules and remedy.'A smile settled on my lips and I quickly hid the book, returning to my room. I shut the door and sat on the bed, carefully studying the contents in the book.The first chapter read 'Bonding Failure; remedy.' Yes, this was exactly what I needed. 'One, the other twin has to donate a vail of blood to keep the other alive if a problem arises'. I paused, closing the book. A vail of my blood? That shouldn't be something difficult.Finally! Reyna would live and after I'm delivered of my baby, we can just go ahead with the Bonding."Reyna!" I called

Narrator's POV Ryker began developing feelings for Adeline during her training at the academy.Even though everyone else in the Pack hated her, he has that one feeling that seemed to grow each passing day and he just couldn't control the urge to see her every moment.During the years when she left, his mind had always been with her and her disappearance from his life, left a deep void. Yet, he couldn't express his feelings to her as he felt it would seem improper.He was her teacher and she was just his student, she respected and maintained the formal relationship between them, but Ryker wanted something more.Worst case, he was way older than she was.His mind had drifted into confusion ever since the day he found out Reyna was his mate and it grew worse when he came to realise that she and Adeline were friends.And, there was even a possibility that they were siblings. He was their uncle and that had made everything more complicated. He ought not be involved in any love relations
BURNING DESIRES, WIFEY PLEASE COME BACK Chapter 63 Real Mother?
Adeline's POV My heart ripped off in pieces the moment I beheld Reyna lying in pain in the bedroom."Reyna, p...please, stay for me. Stay for my sake." I said but even in her weak state, the strong walls of hatred she had built for me didn't crack a bit.They held firm. Even unto this day, I don't know the best way to lift her hopes. I didn't know how to tell her everything was going to be fine."You caused this, Adeline. If I die this way, I swear I won't be able to forgive you." She shook her head, her voice coming out like a whisper yet it was like a sharp needle, piercing through my heart.I really wanted to sacrifice everything to make Reyna live but I was unsure about getting rid of my baby. Even though the circumstances that surrounded how I got the pregnancy wasn't any good to tell, I just felt it would be cruel to go for abortion.But now, Reyna's life was on the line. What if I gave up my child and at the end Reyna and I aren't related? I just couldn't stop asking myself th

Aiden's POV I stepped out of my car, my assistant opening the car's door for me.Hardly had I alighted when the reporters swarmed around me. I've been used to their craziness ever since I took over my position as the CEO of Albert Corp. I had to patch up so many mistakes my uncle has made in the past months and trust me that man has done a lot; but with the family's secret fund he didn't know about and didn't get to touch, I was able to restore the company back to normal.I ignored their numerous questions, walking into the building. I didn't bother to return the greetings from my employees and went straight to my office."Mr Albert, here is your schedule for this week." My assistant, Layla said with a smile on her face. I had to replace everyone uncle had employed before and hire new ones.Hell, they weren't even up to the company's standard and all they do is take salary for nothing."Read out!" I ordered, my gaze fixed on my laptop. I listened to her speak and after she was done,
BURNING DESIRES, WIFEY PLEASE COME BACK Chapter 61 Damn Sick
Adeline's POV I sighed, checking the calender. My birthday was fast approaching and they meant Reyna's death day was approaching too.I had to do something. I planned to get rid of this baby but wouldn't that mean taking risks?I don't feel endangering this innocent baby's life was a nice idea, still I imagined the disgrace I'd face when the whole Pack finds out that I was pregnant and didn't even know the father of my child."Breakfast is ready." Sienna announced, jolting me out of my thoughts. It's been two days now since I got to her place where she stays with her mother."I... don't think I'm hungry, Sienna." I shook my head though it was a lie. This baby had been making me consume so much food lately and I feel hungry every minute.Yesterday, I finished three bowls of rice and even wanted more. At midnight, I was hungry too. Aside from the baby shifting position every time, the baby whether a she or he was consuming more than enough.I had always dreamt of having a child with Ai

Adeline's POV "She's pregnant." The Pack doctor announced and immediately she said that, my heart sank. Pregnant? No, that can't be possible!"That's why the Moon-Twin bonding didn't work, the seed in her is stopping her wolf from reacting." She added.Tears streamed down my eyes freely, I can't believe this. "I said it, you're bad luck Adeline!" Reyna yelled, running her hands through her hair. "You want me to die, don't you?""I... I'm confused.." I stuttered, short of words. "M...aster." I turned to Master Ryker whose face was filled with a dark glint. "Who got you pregnant, Adeline?" He asked, his voice husky. I shook my head slowly, my words hanging in my throat. How can I answer his question? I've mated with two different men.Could it be Aiden or that stranger Eva made me hook up with?"She's definitely pregnant with that man's child. A one nightstand doesn't result into something good, does it?" Reyna hissed."What do I do?" I asked, my voice trembling. "Abort the baby,

Adeline's POV "Hey Adeline, you're back to the academy. It's really been a long time." Theresa said, beckoning on her other friends. I gulped, watching them giggle. "Yeah, I'm back. Do you have any problem?""I heard the MoonCrest Alpha rejected you, aren't you supposed to be sulking at home instead of pretending to be concerned about the soldiers?" One of her friends asked."Does she even have a home?" Theresa scoffed."No, she does Resa. She now stays at Master Ryker's place." Theresa widened her brows, moving closer to me. What's wrong now?"Why are you suddenly back now? You're here to steal him away again, aren't you? Master has always liked you, and he doesn't even act like I exist." She began to sob and I frowned, wondering what was wrong with her.How is that my fault? Besides, Master Ryker only sees me as his student and nothing else."You have to stop with this, Theresa. This is not the Adeline you used to know. If you're to bully me again, shoo little fly, get out of my
BURNING DESIRES, WIFEY PLEASE COME BACK Chapter 58 Had Nowhere To Go
Adeline's POV I settled for the room beside Reyna's since she objected sharing a room with me when I asked.The reasons for her actions were still all confusing to me. She has suddenly changed form the jovial girl I knew and was now treating me like I was some stranger. "I don't think I can join you tonight, Master. I don't feel good. I seem to have lost my appetite to eat anything." I shook my head, staring at my feet. "You don't have an appetite or you're avoiding your sister?" He asked, folding his arms.I looked up, swallowing hard. How did he find out I was only lying? It was all true, I didn't want more of Reyna's tantrums tonight.I just wanted to sit solo and think my life through. Her sudden change was a shock to me and I wondered how she could change so quickly.Master Ryker pulled me out of the room, as we made our way to the living room. "I have something to say and it's important." He said as we reached the dining area."I didn't make dinner for three as I wasn't awa
