Chapter Eight.

Jaslyn

I hissed for the sixth time in a row as I flipped through the pages of the book I wasn't really reading. The words seemed to blur into each other, and my head was starting to ache. I crossed my legs together and leaned against the fluffy chair with another sigh.

I was all alone in the large room I shared with Zeeland, and thankfully for me he wasn't around. He was prolly in the garden, North wing with Alyse. I tried to ignore the sharp pang of pain that shot around my heart with no success. After that time in his study, I'd caught Alyse giving me mocking and hateful stares. Surprisingly, I was affected by it even though I considered myself as thick skinned.

For the past few days, I acted the real part of a fake-mate. Maybe the arrival of Alyse prompted Zeeland to put me in my place. And did I mind?

Yes.

Even though I wanted to deny it.

The fact that Zeeland was a cripple didn't matter to me. He was well…good.

    Chapter Nine. ZeelandI looked around the corridors we passed with my eyes, in search of one person. “Are you looking out for Dmitri?” Alyse’s words startled me. I had forgotten that she was pushing my wheelchair over to my room. I wasn't looking out for Dmitri, but I nodded anyway. “Yes.”“Oh, I could get him for you.” Alyse offered with a smile.I shook my head. “Don’t worry. Let's just spend the time together.” ‘You’ve gotten so good at lying to yourself, Zeeland.’ Raven sneered at me.‘Stop talking in my head.’ I warned him.‘Your stupid display of affection with Alyse has pushed our mate away. Isn't she the one you're looking out for? And don't bother lying to me, I'm in your mind, and your other half.’ He drawled.I sighed. ‘You liked Alyse. Why are you speaking of her in that tone now?’ I asked.‘I thought she was our mate.’ Raven merely said.‘I’ve told you, Raven. Jaslyn isn't our mate, and will never be.’ I countered with more heat than necessary.‘But

    Chapter Ten Jaslyn I led the unsuspecting maid into an abandoned storage room in the corner of the passageway. My belly was already grumbling and the intense pain of neglecting to feed for an entire day was telling on me. I let her lean against me completely docile, before gently sinking my fangs into the side of her neck. I was careful not to take too much but just enough to tide me for two hours. Three, if I was lucky.Yesterday had been a busy day for me, courtesy of Alyse who'd made it her life job to torture me as much as she could. She taunted me every chance she got, and always in the presence of Zeeland. I'd already gotten used to it although it hurt like hell. Especially whenever Zeeland sided with her. I wiped off the memory of what just happened from the maid's mind and sent her on her way.“What are you doing here?” A feminine voice asked from behind me, making me jump. It was Alyse, standing at the doorway, her eyes glistening with suspicion. She

    Chapter Eleven. Jaslyn Days sped by, and I soon forgot about the fact that I almost kissed Zeeland in the library. I wasn't kidding anyone though. To be fair, I tried to forget, but bumping into him almost everywhere didn't help matters. Worse still, it was always whenever he was getting chummy with Alyse. My purpose at the Zen pack was already accomplished, and it seemed he'd already forgotten all about me. Whenever we crossed paths , he regarded me with an indifferent gaze that always made me question if what'd had almost in the library had been real, or my imagination. Alyse on the other hand was getting much better at taunting me. She never did so in the presence of Zeeland nowadays though. The two-faced bitch. Pretending to be sweet and kind to me, when truly all she wanted was to see the death of me.My efforts at rousing my wolf weren't any better than when I'd started. And the Vampire stranger hadn't made another appearance ever since our encounter i

    Chapter Twelve. Jaslyn “Are you new to this pack? Everyone knows that Alpha Zeeland has taken a new Luna, and who else would it be other than her?” Reeta turned a scornful gaze at me.I was the one he'd chosen, but there was no use arguing with her.Alyse gave me a taunting smile. “Wrap that gown up for me.” She ordered Reeta.“But this customer asked for it first.” Suxan argued boldly, stepping forward.I placed a hand on her shoulder. “Don’t worry.” I said softly.“Of course you wouldn't bother. You can't afford it anyway. You just wanted to show off to impress us. You should be thankful that Luna arrived in time to save your cheap tricks from getting exposed.” Reeta laughed as she moved past us.“I’m sorry, Miss.” Suxan faced me with an apologetic smile.I nodded. “It’s fine. Can you take me to see other dresses?” I requested calmly.“Of course, Miss.” She led the way through pretty dresses on hangers, and my eyes caught on one. It stood out indeed. It was a

    Chapter Thirteen. Jaslyn I was in a fairly sour mood tonight. It was the night when the lower packs were coming to pay homage or whatever it was that Dmitri had told me. Yesterday afternoon had gone well indeed and I could still picture how epic the manager's face had looked like, in my mind. Reeta's hadn't been any different too. I'd gotten the dress like I said I would, and now it lay on my bed alongside its black tiara and my favorite cologne.I had a queer habit of pairing up my perfume according to my mood. The one I was using tonight was in a purple bottle, and was a combination of pleasant seductive fragrances. As for the reason why I was in a sour mood, Alyse was the culprit. For whatever reason, she'd convinced Zeeland to make me join the servants in their daily chores. I'd overheard them when I had gone over to deliver a message to him from one of the council members. My heart had gone cold when I heard him tell her that she should remain patient unt

    Chapter Fourteen ZeelandHer eyes were wide open, and mine narrowed. “What do you think you're doing?” I asked, my eyes unintentionally lowering down to her exposed breasts through the see-through night clothes she was dressed in.“N-nothing,” she stuttered. “I thought I heard you mumble something.” I forced my eyes away from the view of her breasts and to her face again. From our angle, she was pressed against my sides. Her excuse was a lame one since I hadn't been sleeping. I'd heard her when she suddenly awoke, and while I'd been worried, I didn't open my eyes to see what the problem was. And Raven had been giving me a hard time about it.When she suddenly leaned close to me, I thought I'd explode with the burst of my nerves. Throughout the time at the party, I had done my best to ignore her. But it'd been a futile attempt. I was aware of everything that had to do with her. And oh, how beautiful she looked in that dress of hers. And her perfume was so intoxi

    I slid my leg deftly around the pole, landing elegantly on the ground to the loud hoots and cheers of the masked men down the stage. I smiled brightly at them, my eyes scanning for the customer my boss had told me about. It didn't take long. I strayed down with purpose towards him, my steps matching the beat of the loud music booming in the club.“You look dashing, Mister,” I purred seductively when I finally got to him, bending slightly so my cleavage was exposed. Holding his gaze, I pulled away the glass of wine in his hand and poured it slowly over my chest. It trailed down to my belly. “The private booth,” the man finally said, his gaze moving leeringly over my body.“I’m expensive.” I replied promptly.I watched eagerly as he reached into the wallet and pulled out a wad of dollar bills, and placed it in my hand. “There’s a lot more where that came from.” He said invitingly.I scoffed inwardly. Men and showing off.My hands closed around the dollar bills, and tilting my head sli

    I'd rather have a deal with the devil himself than date someone again. I thought to myself as I chugged down my fourth glass of whiskey sour.Only three days ago was I proud to have a caring and sweet loving man as my boyfriend. Who would have thought I was just being used.I hissed in annoyance and beckoned to the bartender.“Another glass please.”“You don't look so okay.” she muttered as she stretched out a filled up glass my way.“Someone messed with your heart?”“Well...” I exhaled sharply.“You can say that.”She shook her head and shoot me a sympathetic look which I find rather annoying.“Men are like that. You can never trust them fully.”I nodded rather quickly. They are never to be trusted.“They will pretend to love you for a year if you're not so lucky two to three years but all that is just to get free access to your pants continuously.”A sigh of relief escaped my lips when her attention was called for at the end side of the bar. I know she was only trying to console me in he

    “I'm sorry you're going where?” I eyed him over my bowl of popcorn.I was sitting down in the living room whiling away time playing games and eating popcorn all by myself when Zayn burst into the room telling me of his impending travel.“I'm going to Mexico for some important business. It's just going to last a week and some days and I will be back.”I snorted inwardly. If it had been when his hatred for me was still strong, I wouldn't even have noticed his absence.But now that I'm beginning to unravel how I can't do without him, he wants to go away on a work trip.I might break down if I keep on thinking about him going away for some days, how lonely and cold it would feel without him on the bed.How am I going to cope alone?I suddenly felt his strong arms around my fragile body engulfing me into a comforting hug.“Its okay if you don't want me to leave, I can postpone it.” I shook my head vigorously.“Don't even think of doing that, it's just going to be a week and some few days.

    Recently her parents had lie low for reasons best known to them.But I wouldn't take chances, I would make sure I keep her safe from harm.Staring down at her smiling face, I could swear she was dreaming. I hope I'm the one she's dreaming of.I don't need to say much by the way, no one could make her smile the way I do.After much pleas, she finally gave in and packed in her stuffs to my room two days after our tour around the mansion.“Will you keep on staring at me all day long ?” she asked beaming at me.“If I could stay all day just staring at you, I would gladly do that.” I bent and gave her a peck on her forehead.“You know, you could still do that if you wish. But doing that will drain you of all your wealth.” “Is that supposed to be a threat pumpkin?” “How can I threaten the almighty Al-Zayn ?” she grinned jumping out of the bed.“I have to take a shower, my body reeks of kisses.”Before she could make it to the bathroom I gripped her by the waist.“Not so fast pumpkin, I sh

    The soft rays of sunlight slashing across my eyes could be so annoying.I was having a wonderful dream, but too bad I had to wake up.The faint smell of oud hung around the room. I squint my eyes a little around the room.This isn't my room, my bed isn't as hard as this. I stared drowsily at the bed as the memories of last night started flooding in.I sneaked out of the room in his shirt because my dress was destroyed beyond recognition. Thanks to Zayn.The only prayer in my head was not to get caught by his maids or guards or worse still his nanny.And it was a success. I turned the door knob and pushed it in.My room was how I had left it yesterday but...Something feels off. The room had a mixed scent of rose and lilac.And I definitely don't use lilac. Could it be that...No no no, get a hold of yourself Kacie. She's far away from you, it's just the maids who often comes to clean your room up.Yes it has to be the maids...I rushed into my bathroom and took a quick shower. The chi

    I woke up the next morning with a terrible hangover. Partly from the alcohol and the rough night between us.I spread my hands across the bed. To my dismay it was empty and cold.I opened my eyes slowly and truly he isn't on the bed.I ignored the banging hangover razing the whole of my head and head out of the room. The hallway looks empty.Where could he have gone to so early?I stroll down not knowing exactly where I'm headed to. I continued walking anyway.“I can see you're awake.”I turned around to see him standing a few feet away from me dressed in a well tailored suit. Even his haircut looks different, I guess he's in a conference meeting with his staffs.I closed the remaining distance between us.“Yes. I searched but didn't see you around so I decided to come check on you.“Sorry I didn't keep a note for you, just trying to fix a little problem.”I furrowed my brows. “Problem? Is it serious?”“Don't worry pumpkin.” he kissed me slightly on the cheeks. “I got it, in less th

    It's been a week since we officially started dating. Somehow it feels strange because I hadn't expected him to quickly renege on his word, but all the same I'm glad things turn out this way.Seeing how he changed from being a hardened stone hearted beast to a loving angel. I might say I'm one a lucky girl tho it's still hard to believe.Despite all his pleas and constant nagging, I refuse to pack into his room. Partly because of continuous nightmare and also because I want to mentally prepare myself.Apart from myself I've never slept overnight on the same bed with someone, even when I was still living with Josh.“Common Kacie, could you please lend me a helping hand here.” I glanced up from my phone to see nanny Miriam struggling to arrange the dining room.“Sure. Just a minute.” I said standing up from where I sat checking out Zayn's pictures.Pictures that I had taken secretly without his consent.Weird right?I missed his face so much I decided to do the only thing I could do to

    I walked gently down the stairs trying as much as I could to stifle in a smile. But it didn't work though, as a bright smile cover the whole of my face.I could tell from the way he shivered when I came out dressed in that gown that he was beginning to like me.Try as he might behave rudely to me always, he can't change the truth.Truth that could be very dangerous to you."Ahh. Get a hold of yourself Kacie."His warning that night was scaring, particularly his face."You must never fall in love with me, Kacie. The day you do, would be your end.” his warning kept ringing in my head and clearly it wasn't something ordinary that I could toy with.I continued walking slowly when the pain came again same way it did when I was at the pool. Except this one grip was tight caging me into the vast ocean of pain.I held on very tight to my stomach, my vision was already hazy at this point"Please...

    "Are you coming with me?." I asked him immediately we step into the elevator."Nah. I will pass, the torture they received from me is enough.""I might end up blowing their brains out if I should set my eyes on them. He said with a hint of anger in his voice.I stared at him unbelievably. It's so unlike Amad to miss something like this.One reason why I always entrust my prisoners to Amad, he tortures them to a near death state."Speaking of which. Did you notice anything suspicious?." "No. But there's a possibility he would strike when he sees you let your guard down." He answered twisting the button on his shirt."I ain't daft, I know what sort of human he is.""Tighten the security around the storehouse and this very mansion itself, and also keep a keen eye on my fiancee."I paused suddenly already regretting my decision to leave her all alone in the room.She was fast asleep when I got a call from Amad saying the prisoners were causing a nuisance.Come off it Zayn.

    "What are you doing here." His thick cold voice boomed behind me jolting me out from my reverie.I slowly turned to face him. I hadn't expected him back so soon, when I woke up from my long sleep he wasn't in the bed.My palms felt sweaty and cold against each other. I'm sure he's pissed off seeing me in his gallery.Before I could compose a very convincing excuse, he had kept the laptop in his hands on the bed and raised me up like I was a compressed air.He carried me away straight to my room and put me on the bed."Where did you go to ? You weren't on the bed with me when I woke up." I asked him slowly.He let go of me and stood up from the bed turning his back on me.I stared at him speechlessly.What is he trying to do ? Didn't he get my question.I was already trying to throw the same question at him but stopped when he began saying something."I went to take care of an urgent matter. And also forget about what happened yesterday.""Don't start nursing the thought that somethin
