I narrowed my eyes.“What do you want to hear?”

“Anything princess. But I would prefer to hear you say the 'yes’ word.

I snorted and turned my head to look at him fully.“I won't accept so just leave me the hell alone.” initially I meant to say the words nicely but it came out a little bit harsh.

“I so wished to do as you want princess but I'm afraid that will be hard to do." I didn't miss the signature smile on his face.

“Then I'll so do you the honour of leaving you first." I was on my feet and out of the building before he could stop me. The chill evening air greeted me the moment I stepped out making me shivered a little.

I looked ahead of me, the only path to my house looks so deserted and quiet. Only someone with half a brain will venture that lane by this time, much less a lady.

I pictured the many things that could happen if I decide to go on that path, I shook my head almost immediately. I'm taking a cab even though I've not got much cash left on me. Speaking of which, where's

    I shut my eyes as tight as possible to escape the rays of sun entering the room. But that might as well be me putting water in a pot without a base.I rolled lazily out of bed and walked lazily and half asleep to the bathroom. I was about to wrap my towel around my body when my mother walked into my room.“Good morning mother.” I said and walked over to my dressing table.“Morning darling, did you sleep well?” I nodded and started applying lotion on my body. “Aren't you going to be late for work?”“I'll but not until I give you this.” she walked over to the dressing table and stretched out a parcel yo me. “Happy birthday darling.”I choked back a tear. She never fails to buy me a present every birthday I celebrate and she's always the first to wish me happy birthday.Not in this case. My inner mind scowled In my head drawing my attention back to the previous night.How had he know today's my birthday? Is he stalking me? No, no, he wouldn't do that.“Isn't it pretty?” my mother said c

    My phone buzzed at that moment. Cursing at the fact that I hadn't left it at home, I brought it out of my coat pocket. My blood ran cold as I stared at the caller ID. With shaky hands, I received the call.“My gold mine,” Nathan's lazy drawl filled my ears.“You sonofabitch!” I rasped, almost stumbling. Little stones rolled over and fell down the cliff. “Oh, you don't have to take out your anger on me, darling.” His mocking laughter irked me, and I longed to scratch at his face with my nails. “You tricked me.” I swallowed hard, my chest heaving. “No, no, I didn't, darling Iris. You were merely excited at the prospect of getting married to me that you didn't realize what was happening. Why blame me for your foolishness?” He sneered.I almost choked on my words. “I loved you, Nathan. I gave you my all, and this is how you pay me?” I cried.“This isn't a romantic soap opera, Iris, cut the crap. You were foolish. How did you ever think I'd love someone like you?” His words were like h

    Chapter Twenty. JaslynMy hands were sweaty as I placed them atop my lap, and focused on gazing through the window. But even that didn't take my mind away from the nervousness I was feeling. My stomach clenched just like it always did whenever I was afraid. And at that moment, I was.Fear.I shook my head yet again and muttered something intelligible beneath my breath. It wasn't like it was a life or death affair. It was merely an Inter-pack Alpha-Luna competition. I could do it. Well, maybe I would have, if my inner wolf wouldn't keep disappointing me. I could've sworn I felt something when I tried rousing my wolf yesterday. It was a sharp feeling. But it was there. I felt it.I heaved a sigh, and wished my heart wouldn't keep jumping like that.“If you sigh one more time, I'll throw you out of the car,” Zeeland who was seated beside me said. Clutching his right arm, wrapped around his body like a koala, was Alyse. She flashed me a weird look, but turned away qui

    Chapter Twenty-One ZeelandMy stepmother could be devious if she wanted to. I eyed her, wondering what she was up to. I didn't bother thinking about how she heard the news of Alyse's accident. News traveled fast. What I was more bothered about was the fact that she had never helped me before. We were enemies as far as the word went.By the side, Jaslyn had a stunned look on her face, her body shaking slightly. “W-what are you talking about?” Jaslyn asked when she finally found her voice. Since that was exactly what I wanted to ask, I faced my stepmom, Darlene.“Oh, you know exactly what I'm talking about, Jaslyn. We should look after Alyse first. But once this is over, I have evidence of you implanting the grenade in the car.” Darlene said matter-of-factly.At that point, Jaslyn's face was completely ashen. She opened her mouth but no words came out. She promptly snapped them shut and glared at Darlene.“That’s a lie.” Jaslyn argued after a moment.I glanced a

    Chapter Twenty-Two Jaslyn I always prided myself on the fact that nothing could ever surprise me. But at that moment, as I stared at the laptop's screen, I'd never been so shocked. The person in the video looked so much like me. Infact, if I wasn't so sure that I hadn't done it, I'd have agreed with them. But it wasn't me. I'd never stoop so low as to cause another person pain. Not intentionally anyway. Even when I fed on my unsuspecting victims, I always implanted the thoughts of pleasure in their minds. And I always took care not to take too much blood than what I needed.“What do you have to say for yourself?” Zeeland's crisp voice pulled me out of my shock. I stared down at him.“I didn't do it.” I insisted. My mind was swirling with different thoughts, and I couldn't think straight at all. Thoughts like who the person in the video was. “Quit denying it, Jaslyn. We aren't fools.” Darlene narrowed her eyes on me.“I can take it from here, Mother.” Zeeland t

    Few years back, I would not have believed it even if I was told by a powerful seer. Was I that unlucky? Or was I a cursed child?A tap on my shoulder jerked me back to life.I stood up abruptly from my chair and turned around to see Zayn's nanny Miriam standing before me with a scared look on her face.“Miss Kacie. I've been trying to get your attention for a while, but you looked so lost.” Are you alright?” A worried looking Miriam stared back at me.“O-Of course, yes. Why ?” “It's nothing. I was just a little bit worried about you. And also master Zayn demands to see you in his room.”“Okay. Thanks, you may go.”“Yes miss Kacie. I will be waiting at the door.” she bowed and left.I chuckled silently. Nanny Miriam could be so dramatic when she wants to. I've tried countless times to make her stop addressing me formally but she bluntly refused to stop.Immediately she left I sank down on my bed. How am I going to face Al-Zayn the way I am?I haven't gone into his room since the last

    “What did you find?” I asked him immediately. There was no room for pleasantries.“I found out something strange about Kacie which I don't think you will like to hear it at all but all the same...”“Spill it out already.” I interrupted icily feeling anxious to hear what he found.“That woman in your custody isn't Kacie's biological mother. Her mother was a bartender who died immediately after giving birth to her.” he spoke from the other end of the phone.“And did you find her father?” I asked.“Sorry. I haven't been able to trace him yet, but I'm on it.”“Good. Find him and also find out the relationship between her deceased mother and the one in my custody. Dig out every single detail and report to me.”“Sure. I will call immediately I see anything.” I hung up and slid my phone into my pocket. What a nice turn of events.She isn't the real woman who bore the pains of bringing her to the world yet she is so cruel and inconsiderate.I shook my head and stroll down going to meet Kacie

    “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

    I spoke icily into the mouthpiece.I hung up after passing out my orders. I have been after this particular contract for seven months to be precise.Since I got wind of my uncle's intentions behind the shadows I decided to strike a deal with with Big life media conglomerate. BLM for short, which I will officially become their CEO in the next forty minutes.That's who I am. I have the power to get any work done at the comfort zone of my home.Normally, it wasn't supposed to take as much as seven months. But my bastard of an uncle was a step ahead of me almost giving me a hard time but thanks to my spies I was three step ahead of him.To get something, you have to stake something. Nothing goes for nothing.With an air of victory I walked back to the dining room but didn't expect to see what I saw.What gave her the nerves to leave the dining while I'm not done eating yet ?."Hey you."
