Chapter 28 Liam and Arabella

"Liam, a lady just called me from the airport saying she is from Barbara. She says she hasn’t been able to reach her friend Barbara and she is the mother to the lady Barbara had given her house key.” Jack explained to his friend as he slipped on his jacket.

"Oh, the girl from the other day. It has been months since I saw her."

"It's not like you did see her that day. You told me, you were not interested in meeting her. And from my own view, there is something strange about her though and I could have sworn she had a wolfy nature."

Liam laughed out. “A wolfy nature? Your association with me has really corrupted your memory. How can anyone just be a werewolf to you. Stop hallucinating. As far as I know, werewolves are a rare specie in today’s world.” He said.

Liam’s mind raced back to Mia. He should call her. It had been a while since they spoke. She hadn't been picking his calls since that night and he thought it right to give her the space she needed.

Jack moved from where he stood and ran through the workshop waiting area to get water. She got revived after a couple of minutes.This time Arabella was in her daughter’s arms while Liam and Jack stared down at her. Arabella blinked rapidly when her eyes met Liam’s again. "Liam?" She called out again. She tried to sit up. “Is this you? You are alive?"Mia looked from her mom to Liam trying to understand what was going on. Liam couldn't believe his eyes either as he bent down towards her to touch her face. It felt real. "Bella? My Arabella. It's really you." She nodded her head as tears welled up in her eyes. He hugged her tightly.Mia stared shellshocked at both of them. “My Arabella? You know each other?""I thought you died…Liam.

The last time she had seen him smile was a day before his intended wedding. Everything had been fine before the unfortunate incident that occurred.Standing up, Asher murmured a good bye and left the house without sparing his mother a glance. She teared up, Fred alighted the stairs, noticed her countenance and he made a move to hold on to her."What is the matter, Amanda?” He queried with a worried look on his face."Have you seen the way our son behave this days?""What can we do Amanda? He has to heal himself. We can’t force it on him.”"He shouldn't be the one facing this, he loved her with all of his heart so how could she betray him in such manner." She wailed."You and I know Mia isn't like that, whatever must have gone wrong had been beyond her power. We all don't understand because she is nowhere to be found.""What if Asher never recovers and he lapse into

Mia drawled.Liam cleared his throat, trying to find the right words to say to her. "Your mom told me you love making furniture, seems like we both have many things in common." He chuckled nervously with his eyes looking everywhere but her. "How did I not notice you had all of my features." He bit on his lips hard."Dad." Mia called out.It sounded foreign to her but judging by his expression and what Jack had told her, he had no control over the turns their lives had taken. She wanted to relay her pains to her father badly since he also went through something similar.“Dad.” She repeated.Liam jerked on the chair almost falling off, he wasn't expecting that she would call him that so soon. "Yes."Mia stood up, moved closer and knelt next to him to hold his hands. "I accepted that I was fatherless since a tender age but I have always wanted a father. Having you righ

    Chapter 33 She is backAsher woke up from his king-sized fluffy bed, yawning loudly. He stared around the room like he was lost in a strange land. Then he remembered why it looked different, he had brought in two ladies for a rough night when he went to club. His routine over the years was, work, club, and random sex. He wasn't planning to change it anyways cause it suited him just fine.He slapped the ladies on their naked butt to wake them up. He walked towards his drawer, pulling out some bundles of cash and he threw it at them."You both should get dressed and get the fuck out in five minutes. That’s all the time you have got before I get the guards to throw you both out." He sneered.The ladies muttered incoherent words as they ran through their things and running out of the penthouse. He didn't care what they thought about him, he had only brought them in to please him. They had no right to complain since he paid them off.Checking his time he had only twenty minutes to get read

They had never been far away from each other for such a long time before and she wanted to tell her a whole lot of things.Cheryl noticed that every time she looked her way, Mia seemed lost in thought. If Mia wasn't breathing, she could have sworn she was a walking corpse."Stop acting like a zombie, Mia and don't slouch.” Cheryl rebuked, steadying her shoulders."I didn't slouch, Cheryl." Mia argued."Oh yes you did.""No, I—“ The curt look Cheryl gave her shut her up. She was only pregnant and was already acting like a mom. "Fine, I am sorry…I would walk right. Are you satisfied ma'am?"She smiled widely. “Of course! Now I am satisfied." She pointed to an opened restaurant. “I am so hungry, let's eat there."Mia stared wide eyed, "Didn't you just wolf down a giant sandwich before we stepped out of the shop?”Cheryl pouted as she s

    Chapter 35 See you soon"How many times do you need me to say I am sorry?" Asher nipped at Catty’s neck.Catherine moved away from him. He had called her over giving her an expensive bracelet to appease for the way he acted the other day. As much as she didn't really mean much to him, she satisfied his sexual urge in a way that surpassed every other woman. And for the fact that he could unleash his pains and frustration into her without feeling guilty.Catty had stayed away from him for two weeks, the bruise he had caused the other day must have taken time to heal and hurt her much for her to stay away. He had informed Ray to order one of the most expensive bracelets, send it to her and call her to his office to ease out the stress he felt.Staring at her, Asher never ceases to admit she was good looking and sexy. She looked gorgeous in the orange colored skin tight dress that hugged her curves perfectly. Her skin toned out over the years, with long straight legs and a body to die for

    Chapter 36 Panic AttackMia stared at the man sitting in front of her from the rim of her juice glass, she felt like stoning him with the cup. He looked calm and responsible from the picture posted on his profile but sitting right here with him was like hell. All he did was rant about himself, how he excelled so much in his work as a neurologist and the number of women that had dumped him. When he mentioned that, Mia realized the reason, no woman in her right mind would stay with a man so self centered as him.Jason was his name, good looking with a nice fitting stature and very brilliant too. But aside these nice features, he lacked proper human communication almost like he had been talking to a statue.She dragged her heel under the table. "Jason, I also do furniture architecture—“"Yeah not bad, but do you know I am the best surgeon in my hospital, the...” He kept on.Mia zoned out of the conversation again, she had no intention of paying him any mind this time around.

    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

She gleamed happily. Since Asher had announced his reconciliation with Mia, his bright self had returned and she couldn't be more glad. 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. What I don't understand is why you left on your wedding day?"She shifted uncomfortably. “Well—“"She had to because of some personal reas

    Chapter 55 Werewolf not Mere WolfAsher sat still on the single couch in Mia's room saying nothing, he didn't know how to feel or what he was suppose to say. 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

    Chapter 54 Question and AnswerAsher stood in front of the M&A Pastries and Coffee feeling nostalgic and he felt like a stranger in a familiar place. 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. He hadn’t spend a minute when he was seen by aunt Harriett.“Oh my handsome, Asher. You came? It has been like forever since I last saw you.” She beamed at him pulling him i

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." He announced.Mia gave him a quick peck before she al

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." She winked.Darrel couldn’t hide his laughter and he did happily. “Now I see you are having fun at my expense.
