Lyanna's Pov "Drake you can't do that, but I thought…" "That's your problem, you are always assuming and I really hate that about you. Can you for once not believe someone?" I part my lips, staring at him as tears drop down my eyes. "Drake, I love you and you are my husband, am I not supposed to believe you? Do I have to have second thoughts on what you tell me or how you act?" "Stop using love and marriage as an alibi, you know I feel absolutely nothing for you." "Oh really? If so then why are you threatening to kill my friends if I don't come with you? Or do you find pleasure in seeing the person you hate each and every time?" "For you, yes, just because I love torturing you." He smirks and I shake my head slowly. "I had no idea I fell in love with a sadist. You are a sadist and you need help, maybe go see a therapist. And I am not going anywhere with you, you raped me, nearly killed me and you broke my heart by letting
Bella's Pov Flashback****That morning, the Princess couldn't hide her joy that her parents were leaving. Her only problem was Roger but she knew she could deal with him in a way. She stood in between the two gentlemen, waving and watching her parents drive out of the palace. She sighed, looking at Lugard who didn't give her attention. She slipped her hand into Lugard's, he retreated, walking back into the living room. She felt like crying at the moment but she knew the outcome of her tears, Lugard could be in deep trouble if she cried. "You should leave him, he's not a nice person and does not care about people. Can't you see the way he behaves towards you?" "But I just want to be his friend, why doesn't he like me?" "I told you, he doesn't like you, Isadora, maybe he might even try to hurt you." "He's not a bad person, Drake, he's really good, I am sure of it. And he's so handsome, don't you agree with me?" Roger got mad, walked unce
Balla's PovThe next week, Lugard was sentenced to imprisonment. They had looked everywhere for her but did not find her.And the queen had also become sick by the loss of her daughter. That was their only child, the heir to the throne and she was so beautiful. He was curled up on the cold cemented floor like an unwanted thing wearing just worn out shorts as he battled with his mind into letting him fall asleep and perhaps to forget the hunger he felt.He heard the heavy gate produce a sound, alarming hom to sit up immediately. It opened, ushering light into the dungeon as a result. Four people stood outside the gate, staring at him awful. Three men and one woman. The first man entered, he didn't seem to care much about the tired-looking boy. The second man however watched him like he was staring right at a piece of garbage. The third looked as greedy as his round pot belly which shook with every step he took. He was probably the boss around here. Finally the woman, a maid, lookin
Lyanna's PovIt's okay, you know what? Just drop it here, okay? Do you know the woman he slept with? What name did you say? Est…yeah Esther. Is she still alive?" "Why do you ask?" Bella ask, a hint of annoyance in her voice. "I would want to ask her a question, why would she teach the little boy about drugs and sex and make him be addicted?" "The drug was the only available remedy to his pain. And the sex, that's what they felt like doing." "No, I would say it was on purpose, and not accepted. He was just 17 or 18 for goodness sake. Why would you have sex every now and then with a boy of not your size?" "Lyanna, seriously you don't have to get mad. It wasn't as if he was forced, when I was speaking did I say he hates her? On contrary, he was thinking of her the night she kissed him. He liked it. Or wait, is it what I am thinking?" "No, far from it, I am not jealous, I am just mad the woman made him into what he is now, he wou
Bella's PovA knock comes at the door, I stop talking and then get up, walking towards it. "Don't go, come back." I return and then sit beside her. "What is it, Lyanna? Someone is at the door." "I am well aware of that, and that's why I have called you. Should I hide, the last time I had a dream and forgot about it, it wasn't nice. What I am trying to say is that he may be at the door." "Fine, prevention is better than cure, " they say. Go and hide in the kitchen, I will alert you if it's him." She quickly ran to the kitchen as I got the door. "Good morning, my wife, how are you doing?" I step aside, Sam enters and then kisses me passionately. "Where's Lyanna? Is she still asleep?" "Nope, she thought you were Alpha Lugard so she ran to hide inside the kitchen." "I am here now, how are you Sam?" "I feel terrific, I have all the reasons in the world to be happy." "Oh really? Come have a seat and te
Bella's PovThe whole place remains silent as I stop, I stare at Lyanna and her expression is very hard to read. Sam looks normal and I understand, for men like him, they hardly get emotional. "What happened to her, did she die if she was banished?" "I don't know, because Drake never found out. Sorry, Lyanna, I know you wished her dead." "Yeah, for some reasons yes but for some, I don't wish for her. So what did Lugard say about this, did he figure out his feelings for her or he never did." "Even if he did, he wasn't ever going to see her again to express how he felt. Lucky for you, he told me he didn't love the lady. Just that what they shared was a whole new level." "Mm hmm, well, I wish I would be able to believe that." "You should Lyanna, because it's the only truth. Well, let me continue, his story is about to end, ready?" She nods and I continue. *******Flashback**** "I don't know why you even care about that old woman,
Lyanna's PovThis morning, after the whole talk about Lugard's past. I somehow thought it wasn't his fault and that I should forgive him but I don't. Just as Bella said, in every situation, we can decide to be the best version of ourselves.Well, he chose to be what he is today and thank goodness that I am aware. I won't be the ball he would be playing in a big park.I pace up and down, waiting for the telephone to ring so that I hear what's going on. I have to find my parents as soon as possible and then have them come to my rescue. I need to know what really happened. The telephone rings and I quickly reach for it. "Hey Bella, any news?" "Yeah, I've got the number and he just went out. Grab a pen and a piece of paper, and the get ready to write the number down." "Yeah, just a moment, be on the line as I get the pen. I put the receiver down and anxiously rushed to the kitchen. I remember that the pen is the bedroom and I swiftly go up, returning with it. "Hey, I
Lyanna's Pov "I am going to tell you everything that has been happening to me since the very day of my marriage." The nod in unison. "After the wedding when everyone left to their respective homes, I also went home with my husband. Instead of sending me to his house, he sent me to a huge castle and when we entered, they started chanting his name and then chanting my name as well. Initially, I thought it was one of his ways of surprising me so although I got confused, I tried to calm myself…" "Lyanna, please take your time and talk, we have all the time in the world for you, daughter." My father says and I remain as calm as possible. "So when we got there, he told me about me using an adjoining room. And we had to argue because I didn't find any sense in using a different room from my husband. I told him no, and well, that case closed. Could you believe I was still in my gown, waiting for him to help me out of it and we will make love. Drake came to me and then told me he was going
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."
