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 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

    “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.

    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.

    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.

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
