Erus' POV

It's a fifteen hours flight and all I want is just to go to bed. Imagine my surprise when I find my young wife sleeping with her head on the dining table.

Naya. I have been thinking about her since the moment that I traveled weeks ago. The last time I saw her was about two weeks ago, after our wedding night.

I don't know who told her that it's a good idea to stay awake around this ungodly hour, but I tell her to go to bed.

I see her face fall, but I don't care. She shouldn't be awake, I know it's because of me, but I don't want that.

“We have taken your stuff up to the room,” my driver, Jeff, says.

“Thank you,” I nod as I go upstairs. I am undoing my cuffs.

The first thing I do when I get into the room is to jump into the shower. The water feels great, I am so glad to be back home for a few days of rest.

I don't check on my mum, because I know that she is going to be asleep by now.

I put on my pajama pants and without a shirt, I go to sleep.

I have a weird sleeping

    Naya's POV His eyes turn dark with anger and he is looking at me as if he wants to kill me. His hands are firmly around my waist, but I still won't move. This is my plan and if he doesn't accept my request, we are going to be here for a long time. I know he is close to coming, Sherry described it would be like for a man when he is just about to get to climax and all the signs are being displayed by Erus. He looks very mad at me right now and I know that he can overpower me and take what he wants, but where is the fun in that? “Is this a joke, Naya?” He asks, blowing out hot air. “Tell me that I can keep my name,” I repeat myself. “that I will remain Naya Woods for as long as I remain in your house and am your wife.” He shuts his eyes and grimaces from the frustration. It is funny to see the alpha in this situation, it's kind of pleasuring to have such a strong man under my thumb. “You have no idea what you are doing, Naya–” I shut him up by moving a little and stopping almost

    Naya's POV I am so happy that I have Erus on my side now. I can manipulate his mother by making her think I am the most faithful wife, and I can also have Erus under my thumb. That's the only way that this house can be tolerable for me. Until I am able to get out of here. I left my bedroom today with a very happy smile on my face. Fillipia smiles when I greet her and she allows me to help her make breakfast for Erus. If I thought that Luna Bloodton was picky with her food, Erus is ten times worse. Fillipia works with breath stilling precision and after she is done, she wipes the corner of the plates with great care. All this to prepare a meal for Erus that there is a seventy percent chance that he might not eat. If he rejects the food, they will return it to the kitchen and decide on who is going to eat it. Then they will go through the same process again in the evening… She pours a cup of expensive tea. Tea that cost more than my mother's yearly income. She tells me how t

    Erus' POV I know that Naya will leave my room and cry and cry about what I have said to her, but I don't feel sorry for her. She has started to become too comfortable and I am not alright with that. The fact that she and I somehow got entangled into a mate bond doesn't mean shit to me. She is still a third class citizen in my city and it's annoying enough to be associated with her. What's the saying? No amount of water can make a pig clean enough to be king. Just after she has left, Fillipia knock on my door and comes in. She knows what she has done, so she immediately falls to her knees with her hands clasps in front of her. “Alpha, I am gravely sorry. Your wife, she–” “Naya.” I correct her with a growl. “Naya,” she nods as she takes the correction. “She insisted on helping and I was sure that she is just excited to be of service to you, just like any of us. I should have sought proper permission first. I apologize, my lord.” I don't look at her, I am glued to the scr

  • Baby For My Bully Alpha    where is my mother?

    Naya's POV I go through my stuff and turn my room upside down. I can't find my phone. I know that Luna Bloodton is very nosy, but I hid it very well and can't believe that someone has taken my phone, my most priced possession. I am tempted to confront Luna Bloodton about it, but I know that no matter how gentle I am about it, I will get into trouble. Gosh, what am I going to do? Those small midnight chats with Sherry are what keeps me sane in this hell of a place. I go downstairs and I see Fillipia. She seize her breath and holds contact with me. “Miss Naya, good morning, is there anything you want?” She asks with an odd tone. She has been odd since I took breakfast to Erus and he rejected it. I am sure that she got into trouble. “Um, did anyone go into my room? Maybe when I was in the shower?” I point behind me. She shakes her head even before I am done. “Except Mary, who cleans your room every morning, but you were there when she was cleaning the room…” Fillipia say

    Erus' POV I step into the hall, the meeting is going to end in a few minutes and I canceled a few meetings to catch up with this. “All rise to salute the Alpha!” Everyone stands up and bows to me. I walk to the stage and sit next to Naya and my mother, both of them have the leisure of not bowing down like the others, they only stand and sit after I have.I am seated next to Naya, her hands are clasped in front of her and her eyes are looking straight ahead. One of the pack officials is still speaking and the hall is as quiet as a graveyard. Naya slowly turns her next to me and looks at me in my face. I furrow my eyebrow slightly. What's with the sour look on her face? Can't she see the cameras everywhere? I reach out and slightly brush my finger against the side of her chin. She blinks and stills immediately, she is not expecting that. Neither is my mother and the hundreds of people sitting down and looking at us. No one has seen me relate to my wife like this. I lean in and

    Naya's POV Hearing that he is taking me to the hospital makes my heart skip a couple of beats. Is my mother dead? He refused to tell me? Are they going to take me to the hospital morgue to see my mother's dead body? I don't know, and being in oblivion only makes my anxiety grow. We get to the hospital and I am put in a private room. Erus asked me to lay on the bed, but like the stubborn mule that I am, I only sat on it. Erus' assistant has been asked to keep an eye on me. He keeps stealing glances at me from the corner of the door. He asked me if I wanted something to drink like five times. Soon, Erus returns into the room with a doctor. “Good evening, Miss Naya.” He puts on his gloves as he comes towards me. “What? What's going on?” I look from Erus to the doctor. “You are going to be examined, Naya.” Erus says. “You have been behaving very annoying these past days and I am forced to think something has been triggering some weird hormones inside of you…” The doctor comes a

    Naya's POV I didn't think that I could hate Erus and Luna Bloodton even more, but now I do. There is nothing I can do about the way they both feel about me. I am a nuisance in their life and they will get rid of me the moment they can. I take comfort in trying to assure myself that my mother is going to be fine. We are not broke like we were, so I am sure that she will be able to afford to go to a hospital. My mother is going to be fine. I channel all of my anger into studying for my upcoming examination. I study and study, until the words are wobbling in front of me. I study and study until all I can see in my dreams are images of my textbooks. I am torturing myself, but I won't stop. On the day of the exam, I leave the house very early, in my new school uniform. This is my first time entering my school in months. The hall is quiet, the exams have already started, but I am led into an empty classroom. Mrs Sandy, the assistant principal smiles at me. “We don't w

    Naya's POV My jaw is on the ground as I try to understand what Luna Bloodton has just said to me. I'm pregnant. Just days after I had sex with Erus and used one of the pregnancy tests, I discovered that all the test kits disappeared from my bathroom. I knew that one of the servants saw the test and told Luna Bloodton. She probably told them to get rid of everything. I wasn't stupid, I tried to use writing to track down my period, but it's not easy because I'm one of those people with periods that just refused to sync. The last time I had sex with Erus, I didn't suspect that I would end up pregnant. Even when he dragged me to the hospital to get tested by a professional. I didn't have any particular symptoms, so how was I supposed to know that I was pregnant? Luna Bloodton looks at me from my bed to my toes and she snarls. “Why are you looking like that?” She barks at me. “Aren't you happy that you have turned into something useful in this house?” I take my right hand and gent

A nurse is next to me, she is panting and her head is against the wall. We look at each other and we laugh. “Hi, I'm Pat.” She stretches out her gloved hand. “Naya.” I shake her equally gloved hand. “Hi. You are not a new hire, are you?” “No. I am a registered nurse that coincidentally walked into the hospital when it happened.” I say. “I see.” Pat says. “I saw all that you did. You are incredible. You are a hero.” The Chief comes into the room and everyone immediately stands up. Pat and I go to clean up and dispose of our gloves. The Chief goes around, commending the staff for a well done job.

    Naya’s POV Driving to the hospital is a smooth ride. I find myself at peace and nothing about meeting Erus crosses my mind. I get to the hospital and drive to the parking lot. I grab my baseball hat and put it on my head, just in case anyone recognizes me. I grab the basket and walk to the front. The reception is calm. I can see that nothing much is happening in the hospital today. “Hi, good afternoon.” I say to the nurse at the front. “I am here to drop off some clothes that are to be donated to the Good People foundation.” “Okay, Miss,” she smiles. She hands me a clipboard with a paper to fill. I heave as I start to fill. It's nothing much, I am almost done in two minutes. “Take your for your donation, please make sure you leave your phone number as someone will call you to appreciate–” The loud blowing of the siren makes both of us turn around. Five ambulances screech as they come to stop in front. The workers rushes out, bringing in injured people on stretchers. Almost tw

I need strength to mourn my mother. “Hey, mum?” Jordan looks up. “Yes?” I look at her through the mirror. “Do you like salty cake?” “What?” I screw my face. “I saw you crying and eating cake yesterday.

I wait to see her get to the front yard of her house, before I go back into the house and shut the door. I grab myself a glass of wine and as I take out the gifts I bought for Jordan.

Seven years ago today, I was a teenager who had just given birth. I survived Luna Bloodton and ran away to a far away city, something that I would have never thought I would have the courage to do. Seven years ago, I was a teenager, running away from my mother in-law, clutching a few hours old child as the train headed towards what seemed to be oblivion. Now I am twenty four, a registered nurse, and my baby just turned seven years old. Life has been very scary, but I did it.
