Chapter 38 His plans

Asher checked through the documents on the table, they had been busy all morning contemplating on the design for the library. He had been informed the land was about half an acre so he had to change the plan he drew overnight.

"Are you giving us the sole charge of the contract?” Ray directed his question at Adam as he scribbled down everything being discussed on his notepad.

"Of course, you are to see to everything to make it a befitting reading avenue. From bricks to furniture." Adam replied.

"Ray.” Asher called out. "I need you to get all of our teams on board. After all of the arrangements, I want us to start work this coming month, no slacking. Is that clear?"

"Yes, very clear sir." Ray responded. He stood up and bowed to both men before heading out the office.

Adam cross-legged staring at his friend. Asher dropped the pen in his hand. "Spill it! What's on your mind?”

"Nothing you don't know of." He mumbled.

And I also heard that the woman managing it draws out the designs herself." Ray ranted, checking the profile in awe.Asher didn't need to affirm if it was Mia’s company he was talking about. He had done his own personal research, both online and direct info from Adam, everything was about Mia’s company being the best choice.Adam had told him all about Mia and he had done well to pretend like whatever he said meant nothing to him. Aside his personal intention to get to her, he knew her company would do a good job on the intended project and was willing to stake his earnings on it."We would go for them then. Make orders for the needed furniture, let them know the budget and what we are working on." He instructed."Right away boss." Ray replied.

In place of Mia, she had come face to face with a big brown wolf and right in front of her, Mia had transformed into her normal body. However, she was naked. Mia has held Cheryl’a hand, helped her to her room and made her sit on the bed before she went to her wardrobe to search for a new cloth to wear.Mia heaved a deep sigh as she sat down in front of her friend. "I see you are still in shock, I am really sorry. I did tell you, you weren't ready but your persistence had me on the edge. I am sorry."Cheryl throat felt dry. With Mia's heightened hearing ability she could hear her heart beating very fast. She stood up and went down to the kitchen to get her water. Coming back in, she handed the cup to her and Cheryl hand shook as she held the cup. Mia almost slapped herself for letting her insistence get to her. She had no idea how to bring her ou

Ray asked, ready to write down whatever his boss wants to say."Do you perhaps know those who are to supply woods to the furniture company we hired?""Yes sir. We recommend our choice to them. Why do you ask?""I need you to prevent them from delivering the woods to the company."Ray looked up from his notepad with a confused look on his face. "Why sir?"Asher arched his brows. "Are you questioning my authority now?""It's not that sir, but the woods are meant to be delivered to the furniture company since we are almost rounding up on the building. They need to be ready a month before the general opening sir.""Ray, Ray, you worry too much. Let me handle this just do as you are told.""Sir, I don’t think it’s a good idea to have the job delayed." Ray pushed further.Asher shot him a stern look that made him cower.

She couldn’t wait for him to wake up and hear about what had transpired between him and the contractor, her mother had told her a little on how their wood supplies had not been delivered and him asking for another batch by being paid the rest of the money.About fifteen minutes later, Liam stirred in his sleep and coughed slightly. Mia rushed to his side as he made an attempt to sit up and she helped him up while propping a pillow behind him to enable him rest his back.“Are you okay dad?” She queried looking worried.“I am fine my dear. How are you?” He looked around only to find Mia by his side. “Also where is your mom and aunt Harriett?”“They are both at the shop, a whole lot of orders are on ground. The doctor had assured us that you were only stressed and needed to rest so I had offered to stay with you. Are you feeling better?”“Yes, I am per

As much as her heart thumped at the thought of meeting him, she still couldn’t fathom the act. It was not something she would have thought Asher could do. On arriving home, she only informed her parents and aunt that the issue had been sorted without disclosing too much. She knew if she told them the man behind her father’s condition was Asher they would be disappointed. No

It’s almost like ages since I last saw him.” Fred agreed.“Even though he says he is coming just for the baby’s dedication, I feel he is here for her.” Amanda picked her words carefully, almost scared to make mention of the name.“I do know what you mean Amanda, but don’t you think it’s high time they settle their scores now that she is around?”“Yeah, maybe, he does need the closure. My poor boy has gone through so much, I can’t wait to have him back. And I do hope he isn’t bringing that slut to my house!”“What slut again Amanda?” Fred again.“Catherine Walter!” Amanda stated while rolling her eyes.“I doubt he would.”“He had better not or I would have her thrown out without a single thought.”Seeing her

Seeing Asher after their encounter in his office and having to see him moving around with Catty whom he had sworn heaven and earth that he despised when they were both together made her boil even more. He had really changed. He wasn't the Asher she knew. And her heart ached at the thought of him betraying her.Her thoughts got interrupted by the message notification on her phone. Mia slipped through for a split second and her face masked into a vicious frown.“What the hell?!” She yelled, holding onto her phone tightly. For a moment she wished it would be Asher and she could snuff life out of him. “I am so done with this damn project! I never signed up for this bullshit!” She kept muttering to herself.Liam peeped from the space of the opened door, noticing her strained posture, he knocked on the door gently, wondering what got her so worked up.

She wondered how her father got a hold of such information, but what worried her the most was why Asher would change his mind in such short notice. He didn't bother to ask her to stay which implies he had no intention of keeping her in the know.Not thinking it through, she had paid him an unwanted visit and he didn't take it lightly with her. He was in one of his sore moods and judging by the look on his face he was expecting someone else. He didn't wait for her to exchange pleasantries with Ray when he had told the poor man to shove her out if he still needed his job. In her rage, she was beyond impressed when she saw Mia walk into the building. Giving her a quick check, it surprised her how Mia

    EPILOGUE"This is my first time getting married and I want it to be as elaborate as ever." Arabella whined, as she slumped into the couch next to Liam who caressed her hair.It had been six months since the incident of Mia's kidnap. To avoid escalating the matter and to prevent people from probing the situation any further, they had refused to involve the police. However, Liam had scared the living daylight out of Catty and Collins the night Mia got freed. Shifting into his wolf, he had scarred them in different places both physically and mentally. They had both run away from town as soon as they got a chance to escape. At first Catty had proved stubborn and gone to the police to report a wolf walking around harming people and the police had sprung up working an Investigation to find out if she was right. When no one else corroborated her claim, it was dropped and when she insisted they had to tag her to be crazy. Liam took delight in going to her house to torment both her and her bro

It was easy for her to sense that she was in a basement, the place smelled of dust a sign that it had not been used for a long time. The veil was pulled off her violently and she puffed trying to breath. The room was filled with light and she had to blink severally for her eyes to adjust to the brightness. Mia sneered at the figure she saw as she tried to move but her hands had been tied tightly to the chair she sat on.“Look who we have got here?” Collins mocked grinning at her.Realizing the situation she was in, she tried reaching out to her father with her mind so he would follow her through her mind portal and get to her.“What am I doing here, Collins?” She queried anger seeping into her bones.Collins smirked as he walked towards her. He leaned down to caress her jaw. “Come on princess, is that how you greet your one time lover? Wow! It has been how long now? Well I didn’t like how you treated me the l

For a whole month she hadn't heard from Asher, but fortunately he had indeed place the call to VelaCruz fashion house and they had called her for a gig which had made it impossible for her to know what's going on with him. She thought he was onto one of his terrible moods and would get over it soon only for her to get back and hear rumors flying around about Asher and Mia being back together. She didn't want to believe it, but had been forced to when she went to the office and Ray wouldn't allow her in. She had left in annoyance and had waited at the parking lot till he would come out. And when he did, she saw Asher and Mia walked out of the building hand in hand and smiling lovingly at each other. She knew better than to go attack them. Asher wouldn't take it easy with her."Do you intend to bring down the house with your noise?” Collins said holding ont

In her celebration mood, she had invited Mia's family, Cheryl, Adams, their son and even Ray wasn’t left out to a Sunday night family dinner. It seemed like old times as they all sat together in the Duckstein's large dinner room, dinning and throwing jabs at each other."I really want to see more of this, it has been long since I had a taste of your chicken casserole Amanda." Adam moaned in between bites.Everyone laughed except Cheryl who smacked his head from behind. "You are a mess, acting like you have been starved of food. So typical of you." She huffed."Let him be Cheryl, I miss having you all around too." Amanda replied, "I hope you feel really better now Mia?" She ask

Darrel asked, playing with his drink.Mia had called him to go out with her for lunch, she realized he needed an explanation for how he got treated the last time he was at her house. It had taken her a whole week to get back to her normal self after waiting for Asher to call her. But he never did and she returned to their temporary office together at the beginning of the week. However, he didn't resume with them. She had asked Ray and he wasn't too direct with his response.Mia reached out to hold on to his hand. "I had no intention of playing you Darrel, in fact I really Cherish what we have. But I won't lie to you, I still love him. It's like my soul and every part of me belongs to him.""I understand you, Mia. You never gave me the intention of wanting to be with me in the first place.

Never would he have thought what he saw would be the reason why she had left.Mia handed him a glass of cold water, she rolled her eyes at how lost he looked. She knew no one would take such news lightly which was why she kept it all to herself. She feared he might leave and never come back and without a second thought she knew the chances of them getting back together after the revelation was really unlikely and slim. What human would want to be with a werewolf? ‘Your mom loves your dad.’ A voice whispered in her mind.Taking the water from her, he gulped it all at once and wiped his mouth. “When did you find out?" He queried his voice sounding coarse."The midnight I clocked twenty one…on our wedding day." She replied not looking at him."That was when you didn't reply to my messages.""Yes.""Why didn't you tell me instead of

It was a weekend and he had gave everyone an off since he was in no mood to work. He knew Mia does go to her own company on weekends, however, he was told she didn't come to work so he had to come see her at home. He had decided to take to his mother's advice and get an answer to all his questions once and for all. Promising himself when he does, he would leave and never come back. He would also supervise the library project from his office in New York and put an end to all the charade.After having brunch with his mother, he had drove down here. Entering the place it looked very different from the last time he remembered and the faces at the counter had changed too.

Darrel questioned, sounding unsure of what to say to get her out of the mood.Mia sighed. "It’s fine, Darrel. I am so sorry for ruining this night for you." She apologized in a sincere tone."Don't be like that, I understand you must have been annoyed by something. Maybe some other time we can go out again since I am around now." He cheered her up."You are so considerate." She commended."It's why I can put up with you." He teased, wiggling his brows.Mia gave a short laugh while appreciating the space Darrel gave her. It was one of the reasons why she respected him, he didn't probe too much and knows exactly when to not interfere.Darrel stopped the car in front of her house. “We are here."

His mind went on an imaginative race, wishing he could run his fingers through her smooth skin but he knew better than to push any further. He was appreciative of their closeness now and wouldn't want to ruin it.Mia blushed lightly. “That's like the umpteenth time you have complimented me this evening. Don't you think you might run out of gas?" She teased.Darrel grinned, a smug look on his expression. “Well that doesn't seem like it will happen anytime soon. I will keep complimenting you as much as I can.""Well, it's nice to know I have a faithful fan."
