Sophia’s POV.I knew the answer. That I didn’t, even though I was drunk, but I didn’t regret a thing. I sat on the bed, covering myself with the sheet, and after a while, Brandon walked out of the room, wearing nothing but a towel. It seemed like she had freshened up already, but he was avoiding looking in my direction, and it was breaking my heart.He wore fresh clothes and then left the room. I didn’t count the time that long; I sat there doing nothing, just thinking about everything.“Here!” I lifted my head and found Brandon. When did you return? Maybe when I was busy with my thoughts at that time. I looked in his hand. There was a tablet in one of his hands and the water in another. “For your headache.”, he added when I kept staring at the tablet.And what about my heartache?I didn’t ask about it and took medicine to control this headache.“There is no such plan for today except dinner at Effiel tower. So, you can rest till evening. I’m sure by then you will feel better.”, he s
Sophia’s POV.“Leave my arm, or I will literally knee you.”, I threatened, and immediately he left my hand.“Why are you talking to me in this tone?”, He asked in confusion, totally startled by my anger. “When you’re not regretting anything, then why can I feel anger in tone and voice, and you are pissed too, which is quite rare!”“You seriously have no idea what I’m pissed about?”“I’m sorry, but I’m not able t figure it out.”“That’s because what suppose to be one of the best moments for me, you spoiled it by indicating that you’re regretting it.”, I said directly instead of wasting time playing GUESS OR IDENTIFY the reason behind my anger.“I don’t understand how can sex with me is one of the best moments of your life? Have you forgotten the clause of the contract that…”“Do the hell with the clause, Brandon. I know that very well, but now neither I want to leave you nor stop myself from falling in love with you.”“WHAT?”“You heard me, Brandon. And I’m positive that you might hav
Sophia’s POV.After breaking the glass, even if we tried to join it, we couldn’t hide the cracks. In the same way, I couldn’t behave as if nothing had happened, and because of this, he left for the office without having breakfast and in a pissed mood.After finishing my lunch, I checked on Caroline before walking toward my room. She was playing with dad. I smiled, recalling dad’s word when Caroline was back, ‘Damn! I missed her so much. The next time if you will be taking her with you. I will join too. This place wasn’t giving the vibe of home anymore in her absence.’She literally had wrapped everyone around her fingers. I laid down on the bed and started using my phone, scrolling through my social media accounts. At the same time, I received a call from John.John?I double-checked his name on display, and it was indeed his call. It was not my birthday, and except for my birthday or some other important days, barely any of my other brothers except Levi, Asher, and Oliver called me
Sophia’s POV.“Actually _____,” I told everything to him when I sensed that he was in a normal mood, at least he was then. He picked the plate behind me and walked toward the dining table without saying anything about it. “Soooo?”“You know that I don’t like staying near your family members.”, he pointed out and started having his food. I gave him an innocent look, expecting him to say YES, by sitting, “Fine! But not for half an hour, and let me know the name of the place where he is asking to meet.”“Thank you. Thank you so much.” I jumped on my feet and kissed his cheeks happily.“A kiss on the cheek? It will look good between dad and you, not between us.”, He muttered, frowning, and resumed eating his food.Did he just invite me to kiss somewhere else?Well, I wouldn’t know until I would try on my own because his action and words never match with each other. I kept my hand on his left arm, on which he stopped eating and looked at me, arching his eyebrow. I boldly sat on his lap, a
Sophia’s POV.I thought he was my friend, and I trusted him with all my secrets. But now, I couldn’t feel angry at myself for trusting the wrong guy.Why did he play with my feelings when he had an evil intention from the start?“Now, just like you said that if I will hand over these two to you, then you will let me go and won’t kill me.”, John said to Henry, widening my eyes.My own brother had traded me for his life?“Jo..John?” I looked at my brother in horror and disbelief. Still pointing the gun at my head, he came in front of me.“I’m sorry, Sophia. I love you. I really do, but I love myself the most, and I won’t mind sacrificing your life to save mine.”, Saying this, he loaded the gun, and in no time, Brandon came in front of me, hiding me behind his big body.“And hell, you think that you can trade her till I’m here. No one can’t even touch her hair.”, Brandon snapped.“Exactly. This is the reason I invited you too, along with Sophia, here because everyone standing here knew t
Sophia’s POV.I didn’t know why but Henry stopped moving toward me, maybe sensing my fear or any other nasty thoughts. He raised his hand in surrender.“I mean no harm.”, Henry told me, but you couldn’t expect me to trust me after this betrayal. I just kept staring at him in fear, not knowing what to do next? I was no supergirl or wondered woman who could beat him black and blue and save my brother.I hated to admit it, but I was no less than a lamb between these werewolves who could eat me anytime. Tears were brimming in my eyes because of pain and betrayal, but I was trying my best to hold it.“Y..you?” I heard John speaking in utter shock and was still not able to believe that it was true.“Yeah! Me”, he chuckled. “Haven’t you heard that keep your friend close and enemy closer?” he asked with a smirk playing on my lips. “So, how are you feeling now? Shocked or surprise?”John looked clueless. Well, this was definitely a shock because of which he didn’t have a word to speak anythin
Sophia’s POV.“Leave me,” I shouted, trying to free my wrist from his hand. “Leave me, please!!” I cried, slapping his hand with my other hand, but he kept pulling me out of the house. “You’re hurting me, Henry.”, I cried, and immediately he left my hand as if he cared.Well, his grip was indeed hurting me.I wasn’t lying.But the moment he left my hand, I ran toward Brandon to beg in front of him to spare the life of my brother. “Brandon, Brandon!!” I grabbed his arms. “I don’t know what happened in the past, but please don’t kill John.”, I pleaded, hoping for him to stop all this.“He is going to die tonight, Sophia, and no one can make me change that decision. NO ONE.”, he said in a cold tone. “Now leave with Bruce, or you won’t be able to sleep properly because of fear.”“It’s not this incident which is scaring me, Brandon.”, I sobbed. “It’s you that is scaring me.”, I added, and it was true. This side of Brandon was scaring the shit out of me! He looked heartless and cruel and w
Sophia’s POV.Bruce dragged me to the other car and made me sit inside it, and then grabbed the driver's seat; he started the car’s engine. While I pinched myself a couple of times to check, hoping it to be a dream, but it wasn’t. I was wide awake, and everything was indeed happening with me for real.I was still having a hard time believing that Brandon was the real villain of my life. The man who protected me and took care of me pampered me all this whole year.“Truth won’t change even if you keep pinching yourself for a hundred times more.” I heard Henry speaking, but I ignored him.Exactly. Everything was nothing but an act; his care, his concern, hell, everything related to him was fake. Now I could understand the conversation between us the other day. Now, every word of his was making sense.‘I’m not the right person to fall in love with, Sophia.’‘You’re saying so even without knowing anything about me.’‘Sophia, my past won’t allow me to love you.’‘Easy for you to say, but I

“Where are we going?” Caroline asked when she saw a black slip dress on the bed with matching black jewelry and heels, walking out of the washroom.“You will wear this?” Artemis asked because until now, he had never seen Caroline in a dress. Still, he went early in the morning and asked one of the store managers to open the store early morning so that he could get some clothes for his mate.Whatever clothes Caroline had been wearing were on repeat mode now. So, he thought to get a couple of new clothes for this special day and then placed a dress for Caroline on the bed and waited to see her expression.“Of course, I will. Black is my favorite. Also, It’s not that I don’t wear dresses. It's just I prefer jeans and trousers compared to dresses.” Caroline replied, picking the dress in her hand. “I always wear dresses or gowns while attending any parties.”“So, where are we going?”“The heaven of Italy.” Artemis winked.“Okkaayy.” Caroline nodded and didn’t ask him to elaborate on his ans
“One Month.” Artemis set the target.“Just one month?”“Yes. I trust myself. I can win your heart by then. Also, I believe that it won’t be a great idea to hide about us from your family, and I have to make sure that you will be able to answer the question of your dad in case he asks you.”“Which question?”“That ‘do you love him, Princess?’” Artemis asked in a serious tone on which Caroline laughed. Yes, he was right about that question. “And I don’t think lying to your parents about something this important will be fair. And I don’t think any father will let his daughter stay with a person whom she doesn’t love.” He added, thinking of himself at Caroline’s father’s place. Little did he know that his words had already started doing the work. Seeing how Artemis was thinking of winning her father’s heart meant a lot to Caroline.“You told me that I’m taking risks, but the truth is that you’re also taking risks.” Artemis continued. “For example, first planning to get married at the age o
“It’s fine, Artemis. Not that I’m sad about it because most of the witches' law doesn’t applicable to us. Siphoners are considered Rogues. And other witches hate us because we’re different from them.” She explained. A part of Artemis was happy that witches' laws didn’t apply to her. In that way, she wouldn’t face any problem in choosing a werewolf as her mate. “So, are you unhappy with the fact that I’m Siphoner? A witch who is not accepted by any coven.”“Of course not. If you would have been a human then also, I wouldn’t have no problem with that.” Artemis admitted. “By don’t you think that your ta..talismans can grab anyone's attention. What if someone just snatches it from you?” He questioned, looking at her pendant. “You should keep it safe, you know,” he suggested.Caroline smiled at his concern.“Thank you,” Artemis muttered, kissing her cheek again. “Your presence made my day.”“Hmm,” Caroline enjoyed the scent of his shirt.“It seems like someone is enjoying her stay in my ar
Caroline didn’t waste a single second and kissed him back with the same passion. She couldn’t tell him how much she missed him at that time, but she wanted to express that she missed him more than anything in the world. She was also happy that she wasn’t the only one who was in this situation.Observing Artemis’s situation, she could tell that his situation was no different than hers. After a while, they broke the kiss to grab some air. Caroline was about to say something, but her lips were attacked again, and unlike the first time, Artemis was not being gentle and sweet.She realized that it was the other half of her mate. She was slammed against the wall in the next moment, and Bolt kissed her senselessly.“Mmmm…” She moaned when he nibbed her lips. He kept kissing her until her lips were swollen and numb.If it would have been in his hand, then he would have made love to her then and there, but he was positive that it would be the last thing that his mate wanted to have at that mom

A few hours before!!*‘It’s his birthday today.’ She cursed and quickly called him. And someone received her call on the first ring. Before she could wish him a happy birthday, she heard the voice of her brother.“What now, Sarah?” Colton asked. That was when she realized that in a hurry, she had dialed her brother instead of Artemis.“Nothing. I’m sorry. I accidentally called you.”“Okay. Good night.”“Good night.” After disconnecting the call, she dialed Artemis’s number this time, making sure that she was calling the right person, but his number was switched off. She tried to call him again, but his phone was switched off."I hope he is all right." Thinking this, she sat on the bed and started chanting mantras to separate her soul from her body to check on Artemis, whose number was switched off. Soon, her soul was out of her body, and she traveled directly to the place where Artemis had stayed two days before and wasn’t very surprised to find it empty. The room was almost in the sa
Artemis made sure to give everyone the treatment of a living nightmare by giving earful lectures on the work, suspecting the lucky employees, and firing the rest with advance salary whenever he used to get time from the meeting.“There goes our honeymoon period.”“It seems like he woke up on the wrong side of the bed.”“I wonder who is the reason behind his pissed mood?”“I wish god could save me from his wrath.”“Who could have thought that after enjoying the vacation of thirteen days, he would act like the devil on the fourteenth day?”Bolt kept hearing all these whispers in the office and then checked the time. It was around eight at night already. But he had loaded with so much to most of the department that almost all employees were in the office.“This high time, he should start his family.”“Just because he doesn’t have a family, he doesn’t understand that there is someone at home waiting for us.”“Let it be. It’s not that he overloads us with work. Maybe he is not in a good mo
Artemis didn’t know how Caroline was spending her days, but he was totally miserable without her. He waited for a day in Spain, moping around in the room in which Caroline stayed, looking at his phone all the time with the hope of Caroline calling him, but her call never came.He was having a hard time controlling his anger and his irritation by the end of the day. He wanted to hunt his mate down and bring her back, but he had to control himself.He called his assistant, Kane, and asked him to send his private jet because he was returning back to Italy, chanting the line that Caroline told him, ‘if you need someone, then fate won’t let you lose him/her. Fate will bring him/her back. It may not be soon, but he/she will come back.’‘You can’t find or reach near me not until I want to. On the top, Artemis, you can’t walk on the path of marriage alone. You have to give me space to walk me too.’‘If you want me to give you some space so that you can walk, and I’m sure you can reach near me
