Lyanna's PovI wake up with a huge smile, everyone would if the next day is their wedding day. If you know you are going to be with the person you love for the rest of your life. I wash my face, wipe it, and when I am satisfied with my looks, I get out of my room, meeting my new family downstairs. Well, actually, for the past few weeks, my parents and I have been with Drake's parents in their Mansion. And after the wedding, my parents will be flying out of the country to live a good life while I enjoy being here with my husband. That's what Drake said… "Hey there, daughter in law, how are you feeling this morning?" "I feel Terrific, ma'am, tomorrow is my wedding." I get to the breakfast table and hug my kind mother in law. I know I am in really good hands. "Father in law, seriously, I have told you to stop reading the newspapers at the table. It can ruin your appetite." I say as I sit on my chair beside him. He grins and then hands over the papers.
Lugard's PovShe shouldn't think what she's thinking, it's not like we had something to do, we kissed yeah, but I didn't give in when Alicia wanted to go further. She just insisted on sleeping here naked beside me, that's all. "Brother's wife is here, we were just talking about you and can you join us. Actually, no need to feel confused whatsoever. We do this very often, I am naked, he's without a shirt, nothing wrong with it, right? We are blood after all. Anyway, since you are here, I will change and leave to my parents, I still have unfinished business before tomorrow." Alicia says normally and then walks naked in front of the two of us to her closet. "Hey there, wife, what a pleasant surprise? You are missing me, isn't it?" I walk shirtless to her, surrounding my hand around her. "Is she not shy about being naked beside you in bed?" "If she were, you wouldn't have found us together. She insisted she wanted us to be like this, like when we w
Chapter 56Lyanna's PovI look back at the girl staring at me with smiles across the length and breath of her face. I bend my head, look into the mirror again and then let out a sigh, the smile disappearing eventually. Am I not supposed to… I mean, um, feel happy inside and out like on every side? Why is this sudden feeling? Why am I feeling as though something bad is going to transpire? Is that dream going to come to pass? And well, from what I saw yesterday, I am not really convinced with her alibi. Even so, she looked untroubled, so calm but a little surprised perhaps I was there yeah. I should stop overthinking or imagining things, they are blood after all. "You may be right but that doesn't mean they can't have sex. Ever heard of the word incest? Why do you think it's there in the first place? The answer is simple, because people do practice it." I hear a small voice in my head offer. What's all these I've been going through since yesterday? Geez! I need answers.Jus
Lugard's Pov She extends her hand and gently puts it on mine. Her expression is sort of understanding and mild. "I know all this wedding stuff has…"she shrugs."That all the wedding stuff has stressed you out and that you need rest but please calm down, I am also stressed too, husband. Is it better I call you that?" She smiles and I start the car. Why is she behaving so sweet and innocent, how am I going to carry out my plans if she's like this. I can't possibly hate her. "Are we going straight to the honeymoon? This is not the road we take to your home, wow, I didn't see that coming, that's so surprising, husband." She takes my hand and kisses my knuckles, I watch her without talking. She will be more than surprised. I pull over in front of my mansion, she gasps, looking at me as she covers her mouth with her palms. "This is huge, like it's so big. And did you arrange al these sophisticated welcoming?" "Will you come out or sit in the car talking?" Our doors
Lyanna's PovI wake up, I scan around the room and sigh realizing I am still in his room. Where's he though? I ask myself and just then, the opens and I see him come in followed by a maid holding a tray. "Are you a child to be deliberately refusing to eat and starving yourself? Must I tie you to a chair and then be feeding you?" He scolds, his eyes never leaving mine as I sit in the bed. "I was waiting for you to return so we ate together. Is it now my fault you returned at 11pm? How was I supposed to eat without you here?" "You will find out soon. Amina, would you please serve her on the table?" He speaks to the servant as she bows before serving the dish. "Now you get up from there and come and eat. I guess you don't have any intention of getting out of that big gown, it must be very cozy for you." "Drake, forget it if you think I am going to touch that if you decide not to eat. Either we eat or I don't eat, and I am not sure if somethin
Alpha Lord Lugard's PovI've not been able to close my eyes beside Alicia. I wonder what she's doing in the room, is she sleeping or still crying? Has she eaten or has she passed out for the second time? I attempt to get up, and Alicia wakes up. "Hey, is it morning already?" "Yeah, it's 54 minutes past 4am so you should leave now."I turn around and she wraps her hand around my waist, putting her head on my back.How much I wish it's Lyanna doing this to me. I think I should see her now, "Alicia, get your hands off me, it's morning for Goodness sake." She moans and then yawns loudly. "I am sorry if I offended you, Alpha." She trails kisses along my back, I abruptly get up, leaving her naked in bed. Since I am already in my boxers, I just put on the same shirt from yesterday. I enter my room to find Lyanna sleeping on the floor still wearing her gown. What's she thinking, this girl can get sick, seriously? I quickly go to her then raise her onto the bed. I turn her over
Chapter 60Lyanna's Pov… I sink on the bed, tearing apart inside but refusing to cry. I mean, I had enough already yesterday and my head still aches from that. My eyes are also hurting like bad. Anyway, where's my phone? I need to reach my parents and ask them if they have landed successfully. Well now, part of me does not trust Drake. I don't even know if he's thrown them into an ocean, oh Heavens no, please keep my parents safe.I hurriedly go to the adjoining room, open my bag and then start searching for my phone. I am sure I placed it in one of these bags, but why can't I find it? I ask myself as I finish searching all my three suitcases. This is also the doing of Drake, he has my phone, he fucken has my phone. What's wrong with him? My gaze diverts to the bed and I feel disgusted instantly. This is where he made love to someone else when I slept alone on that huge cold bed in my gown. I wish I were dreaming, at least I will wake up to a normal world, everyone acting so love
Alpha Lugard's Pov "You never do listen, Lyanna, I told you not to come out but I guess you want to find out what I can do, don't you?" I come into the clearing where she sees me. "Where have you sent my parents, Drake." "This should be the last time you call me that, do you understand me? I say, my voice threatening a bit but she does not appear to be afraid. What will I do with you, Lyanna? "Where have you sent my parents is the question I asked you. Tell me or I will run and you will never find me ever again." "You are very funny, do you know that? This forest is being secured by long walls and at the gate are so many men. Do you think I am stupid, you little child? Do not try to play games with me, now, come with me." I turn, but turn again when I see her still standing. "Will you mark me if I go with you, Alpha?" She calls, a smile splays on my face, I would love to hear that again, it sounds so different she says it.
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."
