"Told you never to mess with me," Avan pushed her into her room.Closing the door behind him with his free hand, he used the other free hand to push her against the wall. So that her face was against the wall.Avan closed in on her, Irish could feel his erection press against her butt.Irish knew she had to do something to stop Avan from continuing with his act. But at the same time what she was about to do shouldn't cost her job. Fire and Ice was a dirty place and if she wasn't careful, Avan would be more than pleased to bend her over the dressing table beside them.His breath touched on her nape and the hairs at the back of her head stood on end."He's such a pervert!" Elsa cried in retaliation."Release the bag now...or there would be consequences.""Please let me go. I didn't steal the money. It's for a client." She dropped the bag on the floor at once but Avan didn't release her.He stared at the bag a little longer than he should have, the money getting him distracted. Using thi
"How did you do it?" He asked. Irish was now following Mr. Stranger out of the room.He wondered how she managed to fight off Avan, even as a human girl.Irish squinted, her body moving in steady movements as she walked gently, portraying a soft feminine aura. She wanted to give the impression that she could not harm. After all, men liked soft females.She was in no way going to communicate her true intention or any of her abilities until it was the right time."Me? I did nothing?" She squinted again, trying not to raise her voice so high against the banging music.Irish had lived long enough with the humans to know how they functioned. One's voice had to be low and seductive, especially when communicating with the make clients.Paschal stared at the tender-looking woman beside him. She had multiple scents on her body and as they wafted through his nose, he found it hard to decipher her real scent.Was she human?He didn't know. He trailed her earlier, coming behind her by a distance.
On getting to his penthouse, Irish smirked as he packed into an underground parking garage.The automatic doors of the cars opened and she let herself out and Paschal did the same.He gave out his right hand and Irish did well to take it as it helped her maintain her balance on her pointed heels.Silence ensued between them till they reached the elevator.But once they got to the elevator, the air suddenly became heated.Irish could hear Paschal breathing a little fast, his eyes weeping her whole.He pulled her closer, her body ramming hard against his chest.Using his index finger, he placed it on her chin, causing her to tilt it up. Her eyes landed on the sea of his ocean-blue eyes.He was...beautiful.Unconsciously, her lips fell open. She was enthralled. Her wolf didn't seem to be attracted to him, but damn Elsa, his gaze made her jot with need.She could feel a wave of arousal course through her, disappearing in between the entrance of her thighs.And wait what? He hadn't even to
Now on the streets, Irish hailed a cab entered. When she got to her destination, she paid the chauffeur with a wad of bills which she had removed from the money bag earlier. On good nights like this, she would make sure to pay the chauffeurs handsomely - transfer of sweetness she would call that.Walking up to her front porch, she slid in the key, twisted it, and opened the door. Quickly scanning the entire apartment, she went into Jayden's room.When she heard him breathing softly, her heart became warm.She went closer to him, pulling up the blanket to his chest. Her gaze shifted to his face and instantly, it reminded her of Adrian.Jayden was the replica of Adrian. He looked much like the younger version of Adrian. If only Adrian wasn't so against her, Jayden would have had a father to call his own.Thinking of Adrian, Irish sighed inwardly.She had heard Avan mention that he would organize a party that would be hosting a greater number of Alpha's. In his viewpoint, that would ear
"Don't tell me you want to lose your job!!" Jasmine blasted in Irish's ears the moment she picked up the call.Irish squinted her sleepy eyes in concentration, then parted the curtains to let in more light. She yawned tiredly only to hear the warning in Jasmine's voice."Did you want to lose your job? Don't you forget that Jayden's gonna die of hunger then!!" A sigh came at the end."I know, Jasmine. But what's the need of working a nine-to-five job and in the end, we still get so abused and our rights are not so protected? I quit Jasmine. Avan tried to rape." Irish could hear a gasp coming from Jasmine on the other end..Irish couldn't afford to work in Fire and Ice anymore. No, not after what happened with Liam Wilder and Avan dei Caprio. She would surely be caught and that was the last thing she wanted on her bucket list of occurrences."That fucking bastard -" Jasmine went ahead to utter profanities to his name, saying all the violent things she was going to do to Avan if he eve
"What the fuck!!!" Liam exclaimed as he dipped his hand into his suitcase to fetch out his card only to feel that it was gone.He had stepped out to get his lunch while disguising himself like an ordinary man. His position in the society didn't let him trust anyone to cook for him. Not his girlfriend, and not his cook.Fast food was his hunger escape game when he didn't have the time to cook for himself.He dipped his hand once more, but then he stopped using his hand to feel and started looking into the bag - Nothing?!He was not the type to panic in such a situation but something didn't feel right in his guts. Especially because he had always put this card in this particular suitcase for twenty years and not for once did he look for it.His suitcase was a tom-ford and he had never for once thought to replace it because it had undying quality.On the table, he placed the suitcase, then fished out his phone.He was at a restaurant and had just finished eating and he needed to pay up.
In the principal's office, he sat behind a mahogany desk in his swivel chair. The room had the warm, fuzzy feel of an air conditioner and air freshener.Irish would have been taking a breath of fresh air save for the fact that the room was thick with tension.Irish was now seated opposite the principal at the principal's office, he looked straight at her and the woman which she had fought with, through his rimless glass.Clearing his throat, he adjusted his glasses and peered at her, his eyes behind those glasses, looking so hideous."What seems to be the issue Miss -""Irish." Irish completed his sentence."I came for the Parents-Teacher Association meeting and instead of seeing my son well taken care of, he was being abused by this woman over here." Irish pressed her lips into a thin line as she scowled while pointing at the thick lady sitting adjacent to her."Point of correction Whore! I wasn't abusing your son. I was trying to put him right in his place." She retorted, pointing f
Quickly, Irish turned around, mouth agape, with her heart ramming against her ribcage.She had made two great enemies in one night. Which one of them was it?As she turned around, she was dazzled at the sight before her.Three black hummers surrounded her, like...like everything was planned.There was absolutely no need to doubt that, because, the next minute, another black hummer drove behind her, blocking her only way of escape and making her grab Jayden and protectively cover him with her arms.A man stepped out of one of the hummers. He wore a matching black outfit. He had on, a black tire, black shirt, black trousers "...and definitely a black underwear." Elsa muttered, jittering Irish the more."Come with us." He ordered, once he got near enough.Irish felt scared, but fear was the last thing she wanted to show these people. "I am going nowhere!" She asserted, clutching tight to Jayden. She didn't like that this was happening at all. No, not with Jayden there. If it were she al
66 "I want you to work for me." Those familiar black eyes and eyes stabbed her soul. Yes. He definitely stabbed her soul in the sense that he was looking at her as if he was looking into her soul and seeing through her. Liam rose from the chair where he had made himself comfortable and then began walking towards Irish...with each step feeling like he was making a conscious effort to flaunt his handsomeness. "Too straight to the point, aren't you?" Irish asked the moment she came to. "Too sharp-mouthed, aren't you?" Liam glared at her. This was the first time a woman was making him do petty things like retorting back. Save for this one time, he hadn't done this before. Ignoring whatever she had said before now, Liam came closer to her. He kept coming closer till there was no space left between them. "I've seen your fighting and shooting skills and I'm offering you a one-time offer. Accept it." Irish pushed him off her body, temporarily setting herself free from him by ta
The tone of Rap God, by Eminem, rang in the background and Irish's ears, startling her up on her feet, even though her eyes were still heavy with sleep."What the hell." She cursed under her breath, her hands instantly finding the vibrating phone on top of her bedside table and grabbing it.Without looking, she answered the call and pressed it against her ears, her voice a low note as she responded."Hello. Who's there?""It's Liam speaking. Guess my real name is no stranger to your damn mind."Irish, startled by the man calling, sat up on her ass on the bed, her body turning rigid and alert...Her mind traveled back to her last encounter with Liam. He had said he would find her no matter how hard she tried to run or his.eWas that what he was doing now?But Irish wasn't about to let her feeling of apprehension show - not now and not ever."Hey. Good morning would suit you. Care to tell me how the fuck you got my number?".Liam wanted to say something but he simply got interrupted by
"I can't believe it was my abusive ex-boyfriend stalking me again." Jasmine cried, her eyes and lashes wet with tears.Her nose ran with mucor which she incessantly dried with the help of a tissue paper.After she had rescued Jasmine that same night, she had to bring her down to her house, because she was too scared and traumatized to stay alone. At least, not after what happened with Emerald, her ex-boyfriend.Irish passed a hand around her shoulder. "You're scared and hyperventilating right now, but you've got to tell your brain that everything's in the past now." Irish said."Trust you to give advice when you cry yourself to sleep most times." Elsa chuckled, her tone dripping with sarcasm, making Irish roll her eyes."He...he," Jasmine heaved. "He was going to rape me...and...and hit me." She cried, sniffling hard and she swallowed, pushing her hair backward to expose her neck."I want you to suck in a deep breath." Irish patted her back, while Jasmine followed her instructions. "T
"I need you to tighten your arms around the borders. No rogues must break in. And we must take attendance of soldiers with their thumbprints to enable that there are no traitors allowed in." Adrian announced.Ashley was seated beside him in the now filled Alpha King Industries, at a section of the building which was used solely for pack activities ranging from announcements to meetings and all of that stuff.This was so big an event that Alpha Adrian and Luna Ashley would be broadcast live on all the televisions in every home in Silver Crest pack.This entire room consisted of the honorable, elders of his pack, title holders, his beta, and then the secretary."It has been reported by the chief honorable of the minister of external pack affairs, that trade between us and the packs like Raven pack, Blood moon pack, Great Oak, and the Iron Knight pack..."At the mention of Iron Knight Pack, Ashley frowned in concentration."...has solidified within the years." She waited for Adrian to dr
Irish opened a small compactment which was on the top of her bike, and then, brought out a short black pistol."It's loaded. Just great." Irish muttered under her breathe and attached a silencer then, began walking into the scene of the fight which was shrouded in darkness.Looking ahead, her eyes trained on Liam. He was fighting off some rogues and human street fighters at the same time. He threw a punch at one, and the other, he threw a flying kick.Grabbing another by the throat, Liam punched him hard in the gut..By the way, just as Irish could see, Liam must have thought that none of the fighters possessed a gun, and he had used his hands and feet to fight them all to the ground. However, just as he kicked the last man standing to the ground, with a triumphant smile tugging at the corners of his lips, he didn't notice one of the defeated men who was on the floor, holding a gun and pointing it at him from behind.Liam slowly turned around, perhaps, to leave the scene, but the unfo
Irish threw a gum in her mouth, flexing her jaw as she bit into the softness.Another reminder of the benefits of money - she had rented a new apartment for Jasmine to leave.Of course, the lady was more scared and questioning than excited but Irish had assured her that it was her savings for the rest of the years he settled in Iron Knight.Irish, who was lying on her back on the bed and holding her PC up while she operated, suddenly jerked up from that position and put the laptop aside.Looking beside herself, her eyes fixed on Jayden who was fast asleep. Good.Although she wanted to call over a nanny for Jayden, she knew it was night, and Jayden could ultimately take care of himself.Rolling down the bed, Irish went to her wardrobe.Picking out a black facemask, she first slid it on, before continuing the same process with her black crop top, skinny black hoodie, and pants.When she was done, she slid her sling bag across her shoulders and then went to pick up her phone.Almost imme
Liam knew exactly how to catch anyone on the face of the planet. As he wasn't a dunce, he had trailed Irish to her house to find some men trying to break in.He had then refrained from going there, because from his calculation, Irish must have escaped.He had watched from a distance and even after they broke in, Irish and her son didn't even come out to meet the intruders, meaning that they were quick to escape.Liam walked to Irish, his eyes blank, cold, and void of any emotions."I want my money now. Hand it over, or I'll get your son killed."Irish chuckled, "What makes you think my son is within your reach? Or I'll let you touch him?""You know nothing of who I am. One snap of my finger and your son goes missing."Irish whipped her head to the side to stare at Jasmine. She was hurdled on one side of the bed, fear clearly written all over her face. Irish felt pity for Jasmine. Who knows what Liam must have done to her?All of a sudden, Irish clutched down at her stomach, like her
Irish walked into her new apartment feeling like someone who had just won a trophy. Truly, money answered all things - if not, how else was she supposed to pay for an apartment and get it furnished to her taste in one day?"Jayden, come here." He handed her a takeaway plate. She had bought spaghetti and meatballs on her way here.While he ate, she placed the box on the bed, pulling items out and arranging the things she had come here with. She let a sigh escape her lips. Escaping there was one hell of a ride.She walked past the kitchen and living room and went straight to her room. She had commercial cleaners come clean here hours before she came in and looking at the room, they had done a pretty good job.In the room, the bed was situated right beside the window. She smiled when she remembered they had adhered to her strict instructions to make sure that the beddings were all white.An in-closet was situated by the right, and by the left, just close to the exit door was the dressin
"Stop your search for Irish now!" Ashley boomed. "Or else I'll tell the world your secret." Ashley snarled, slapping hard the table in front of her.Seated across from her was Adrian, he was in his leather recliner chair, sipping hot coffee. Sometimes he'd drink that so much just to help him not to asleep, since he hardly slept with nightmares of Irish tormenting him.Halfway shutting his eyes, he dropped the cup of coffee on the table and peered at a fuming Ashley."We agreed not to let a word of this get out." He thinned his lips and raised his brows at her."Yes. Adrian. The same way we promised each other forever but guess who's not keeping that promise now." She folded her arms across her chest and faced the other side, snorting, "Hmmph. I wonder what the pack member will be saying about their Alpha when news gets out."Adrian groaned, getting up to meet Ashley's standing posture. "You're going to listen to me and keep that wide mouth of yours shut...""No, I won't..." Ashley cut
