Alpha Lugard PovSitting opposite me is Jude Clinmim, even before anyone would introduce him to me, I know who he is and I am so certain I am not mistaken. Well, except his facial features and body which has started to become wrinkled and his hair which is all gray now. Nonetheless, his vile smirk remains, meaning, he's still that bloody greed he was since day one. If only I knew there were these two people here, I would never have come here in the first place. I have changed, yeah, but I am not certain if this old man can't remember me. What if he does?Beside him is Roger, his son. Those two people kept looking in my eyes, searching for something I didn't know. I know this could only be orchestrated by Roger, he's trying all means to get under my skin. "So Mr. Shelton, that is the deal my company has for you. Our new oil company doesn't want to be your competitor or vice versa, we want to work together with you under one name." The smart young brunette offers kindly as she
Lyanna's PovAfter scaring me, Alicia assured me that everything was a joke. And when I asked her about the Alpha thing, she disregarded me and said something else. For a girl like her, I didn't think she would know anything about even slicing vegetables but she did and even more. To my surprise, she helped make dinner in my mother's absence and then helped me clean. My parents return later and all of us, including Alicia, gather around the dining table to eat. "Lyanna, won't you introduce your friend to us?" I raise a brow at Mama's question. Who said Alicia is a friend? She's just another girl. "Well, she is Alicia, Drake's friend. Dad, I guess you know Drake. Alicia, please meet my mom and my Dad." She nods and smiles warmly. "You have such a great lovely family, I wish I had parents who cared for me as yours does ." She says in a strange voice that sounds almost untrue. "My parents can sometimes be a pain in the neck. Like, you can't talk at the
Alpha Lugards's PovI did not have my usual dream of being haunted by nightmares. Still, I wake up to realize part of my bed damp with sweat maybe, I am not sure. Oh yeah, I close my eyes briefly as I think of what can be the course. Last night, I had a dream about Lyanna instead. She was here and was doing the unthinkable to my body, making me feel pleasure beyond measure.I don't think I will be able to go another day without having to feel her. And why am I even having this strong urge to have her here and to bury hardness alongside my nightmares inside of her?I sway to the shower and when the cold water runs down my body, I start to imagine having Lyanna kneel before me, taking me gently and roughly inside her mouth. I then grab her golden hair, pull it, and make sure she feels not pain but pleasure. And from there, I will force myself harder until she chokes on me with tears brimming in her eyes. When I am satisfied, she will hold either side of the tub with her behinds turn
Lyanna's PovI rush out of the bedroom when I wake from taking a nap. Oh shit, am I late? I quickly go to the window and draw the curtains to its side.I sigh as it isn't dark, it could be at least half past three in the evening. For some unknown reason, I am happy, and so anxious to see Drake and what his house is like. Well, I won't deny the fact that I miss him and I like him even though he's been acting like a dick sometimes. I go back to my bed and sit, still thinking about what Alicia said yesterday. It was no joke, the seriousness was deep in her voice. But who is she warning me about? I guess I will have to ask Drake Shelton. Will that be a good idea? I think it will be better if I ask him who Alicia is dating. That won't make him suspect anything. In my shorts and brassiere, I go out to the living room. My mom is sitting watching her favorite TV series while my Dad is seriously concentrating on a finance newspaper. "Hey darling, I even wanted to talk to you but you
Alpha Lord Lugard's PovWith no doubt, I understand why I could jerk off thinking about her. And all this strange feeling that sometimes wants to choke me, I have my answers.She is my mate. And why would the moon goddess choose to bind us together when she knows how much I hate her and her family? Is it to make things easier for me or to make things tougher? "Will you help me with the zipper or will you just stand and gape?" She interrupts my thoughts then I go stand behind her. I feel the pull so strong that instead of helping her with the zip. I halt and fantasize ripping the dress off her skin and taking her right here. "Drake, are you alright?" She questions without turning to face me. "Are you feeling what I am feeling, Lyanna," I ask and her body tenses, she does not flinch. All she manages is a nod.Yeah right, she's my mate. Shit no, I step back and keep walking back until I get to her bed where I sit down, feeling vulnerable and shocked and di
Alpha Lord Lugard's PovShe looks into my face, smiling pleasantly and wondering what I have in my mind. Honestly, I did not have this conjured up, I don't even know how it occurred to me. "Blues, Jazz, Classical. Which would you prefer, my lady, for a dance?" She smiles again, visibly taken aback. I nod with satisfaction blooming in my eyes. "Classicals, Drake." I bow then kisses her knuckles, leaving her in the center, I put on one of Mozart's greatest composition. With graceful steps, I walk closer to take her hand for the dance. The door opens immediately, and there comes Bella and two other servants with the food. "The song is still playing, are you waiting for them to depart before we dance? Oh, I didn't know you are a shy type." I remark and she does not say anything. She put her other hand on my shoulder and then rests her head on my chest. At the moment, it's the best gift of my life. After taking a dance class, I've never really had someone t
Lyanna's PovI replay the action, he tries to suppress his reaction but it's unsuccessful. His breathing differences and he becomes pretty much tense. I smile within, I am so glad I am having this effect on him. I look up at him, he is staring back with his eyes dilated. I run my hand on his hairy iron chest, but he does not stop me. I feel his rough skin against my palm, there are a lot of deep scars on him, I say inside my head then stop when I see something like a tattoo. The light is dim, I can barely see what's written.I move my head closer until I feel my lips touch his skin, he shudders. I do it again, this time around kissing his scar, he shudders as he tries to pull back.The next second, I let my hand travel to his belt. I pass my fingers on it but I do not touch him. I look at him and then smile, he does not. I don't understand why I want him so badly, I have never been this needy. Without waiting for him to do it, I open my zip and let the gown fall freely at my feet.
Lugard's PovI hear the telephone ring, I snap, raising my body a little, and I feel a strange heaviness. Memories of last night bounce in my head, and instantly, l shoot my eyes open. And for the first time in my life, I woke up to the rising sun, and come to think of it, I didn't have a nightmare, this was the best night I have ever had. I look on my side and find her pretending to be deep asleep. I shake my head and then smile as I look around my room. Clothes scattered everywhere, my suit, shirt, her pants etcetera etcetera. "Wake up, Anna, get up and return the chair to its position. I know you are wide awake. Come on." She does not smile or flinch, is she really asleep? I call her twice and she opens her eyes slightly. She stares around and she yells. "What am I doing here in your room and…and in…your bed?" Her voice trembles as she speaks. I shake my head, looking at her while she checks herself beneath the sheet. "Oh shit, no…" Her expression is hor
Alpha Lugard's PovI have traveled around the world, met a lot of princesses, ones which bathed in Rose water and applied the most refined skin oils to look as shimmering as glass. Met the ones with the most shiny Golden hair but none of them can compare to Lyanna. She has her beauty given straight from the moon goddess. Actually, others could even say she's the moon goddess. Seeing her tonight was like being to a place where I've desired to be all the days of my life. Even now, sitting with my back facing her, hearing her breathe makes me feel so alive. She belongs to me and I belong to her, and tonight, she's coming with me whether she likes it or not. I wait for her to close the door and get inside. "I know you can sense my presence, you are not wrong, anyway. Turn on the light, wife." "Drake…" she calls, her voice trembling. I get up and instead of turning the light on, I surround my hands around her waist. "I saw the way you danced with the men at th
Lyanna's PovIt's the third day of being in my father's house and having to live with the fact of carrying Drake's child. My father, Alpha Clinmim has been buried and well, Roger together with my parents are also doing their best to make me happy. For Roger, I have still not told him anything about not wanting to have something to do with him. I plan to tell him after I finish taking my bath. I humm, hoping he would take this lightly. I stop looking at my belly in the mirror, I enter the shower and return a few minutes later with a towel around me. "There you are." Roger says, sitting on my bed. "I brought you chocolate tea, are you going somewhere?" "Ah yes, yes! I want to take a walk in the city. Oh don't worry, I will manage on my own. And thanks for the tea, you know I like it." "How are you doing? The baby also, are the both of you okay?" He asks concernedly. "I am fine and she, I guess is also fine." I smile briefly, he nods twice.
Chapter 105 Lyanna's PovHis eyes are bright even in the dark and he keeps looking at me, I look back. "Are you alright, Lyanna?" "Yeah, I should be, did you hear me say something?" "No, you were only moaning softly, does Lugard have something to do with it? It's not that I am being jealous or something, you have to understand that if you keep thinking about him so much, there's no way you are gonna forget about him. Are you with me?" Everyone keeps saying the same thing, but do they know how hard that is? How can I possibly stop thinking about Drake of all people? I thought. "Shall we go back to sleep?" I noticed him sigh. "It's you who needs to sleep, Lyanna. How long have you been thinking about you?" "Let's not talk about him, please?" He comes closer to me and then puts my head on his chest. I feel uncomfortable but don't not complain. Sun rushes in through the thin curtains, falling directly on me. I moan, open
Lyanna's PovDuring the night, I hardly slept as I felt horny beside Roger. If only he was Drake, I would have climbed on top of him. Trail kisses on his face, his collarbone down his chest and then his abdomen and stop when he flinches, waking with a huge smile on his face when he's like; "Are you having trouble sleeping, sweetheart?" I would nod my head and he would shake his head, pouting like a child. "And what has that got to do with me? Why won't you let me sleep?" I would frown, still sitting astride his thighs. "I want you, please, I am all wet." He would elevate his brows, look into my eyes and with his piercing eyes. "Well, wipe yourself dry, Miss, I want to continue my lovely sleep." "Don't do that, my love." I will say pleadingly, in a very soft tone under the dim light in the middle of a lonely silent night. I will then give up trying, and then put my head on his chest while I listen to the rhythm of his heart beat.
Lyanna's PovWhat did I just do! Why did I allow myself to be kissed by him? I know I used to like him but not now? How could I ever think of kissing another man aside Drake? He doesn't deserve this, I shouldn't do this to him. "You told me you no longer think of him, what are you doing in the kitchen leaning against the wall looking all lost?" I turn to my Dad and I hug him tightly. "I can't believe I just kissed Roger? Why did I do that?" "You used him to know if you still had feelings for Lugard. You wanted to know if you can do that with another man, daughter." "I did, and so now what? Why am I feeling bad for doing it? It's as if I have cheated on him and it's like I want to keep myself for just him, Dad. Am I running insane?" "Don't be silly, Lyanna. This will not help you if you really want to move on. You can't be like this forever, you can't convince people and deceive yourself you hate him when you don't. Why don't y
Roger's PovI bump into the blonde, she smiles and my expression changes. "There you are, Sir. How was the meeting with him, did he want to swallow you wholly?" I laugh, shaking my head. "I was too huge for him to swallow, we shall meet again, Selena. Your words are as warm as you are." She bows, "I hope we meet again, Sir." He bows and I go leave. As I drove on the road, I decided to pass by Denver City college and perhaps gather a little information about Lyanna. It may help me find where she is fast. "You are welcome, Drake, it's been a long time." The security say as I pull over. I get down from the car. "You know what it means to be a business person, you are never at one place. Anyway, is the president around? I want to have a word with him." "I have been off duty until a few minutes ago. Why don't you go in and check?" I nod a and then hurries into his office. "Have a seat, Roger, how have you been doing?" He says immediately he sees me come through the door. "I am
Roger's PovIt's been a few days since I got to Denver and everything is just the same except I have not seen Lyanna to brighten it up a little bit. I have been doing my normal things, from work to looking everywhere for her, but I have no good results. I lean back into the chair, sipping the wine as I think of where I could find Lyanna as soon as possible for the funeral of her father. School? Should I go to the school and ask for Lyanna's number or Drake's number? Wouldn't it be better if I met Drake himself at his oil company? I assume, still on my wine. After a long deliberation, I swayed to the shower, returned in suit and then took the key to my black BMW. The drive to my oil company was quick as there was no traffic jam. "You are welcome, Sir." My assistant says as she follows me into my office. "It's been a long time sir, how are you doing?" "Fine,can I get a glass of water? The weather is quite harsh today. It's too hot in here, what happened to the air-conditioner?"
Present**** Lyanna's Pov. Sitting for almost God knows how many hours but I felt as though I had been sitting for a minute. I looked over at my mom, she was weeping. "Mom, I am sorry, I've opened up your wound." She nodded, wiping her eyes with her hands. "What went wrong? What was your only choice?" "Well, the coffee mistakenly poured and I didn't want another person suffering the consequences of cleaning. The only choice I had was to clean the area myself, and well, I did." "Mm hmm…meaning you never had the chance to get justice for your friend's lives?" "I did, Lyanna but not immediately. I made her drink it a few years later when I was ready to escape with you. I wanted the depression of losing you together with the poison kill her quickly." "Did she live?" "I don't think she could live, if doctor's found out something, it would probably be too late. I killed her, I believe it and I am proud. M
Flashback******Mrs Coblah's PovI was still hiding, my hand tightly covering my mouth so I wouldn't scream. "You are hurting me," the doctor's hand was on the Alpha's as she said. "You are smart and you should know fairly enough that I don't intend to be pleasurable. This is to make you feel pain and die, Doctor." He said, tightening the grip. He looked into her eyes and suddenly, he freed her. "Why the fuck do I keep seeing Anna's face instead of you, huh? Why can't I kill you?" She cleared her throat, constantly rubbing the reddened neck. "Perhaps she's the one you've truly loved. Perhaps you never really loved your wife, you are still with her because she's the only one who likes to be around you knowing fairly well you are a monster.". "Why don't you shut up for just a minute, he might spare your life, you fool. Stop getting on his nerves." I said silently to myself, wishing she would hear me. "You might be right, Doctor."
