Contract Luna For A Year Chapter 23
Lorenzo's POVKicking the door open, I expected to see her cuddled in a corner but instead, there was no one in the room. “She must be in her so-called haven.” I gritted my teeth, making my way towards the end of the building. On arrival, I kicked the door open and just like the first time, she was nowhere to be found. Where could she be? — I pondered, darting my eyes around as I tugged my hair in frustration. Suddenly, it clicked but before I could make a u-turn, I halted, shaking my head sideways as I firmly believed she wouldn't go against my words. But where could she be at this point in time? After weighing the options for a while, I decided to check the daycare just in case she disobeyed but I doubt she would. It was the noise of children that greeted me on arrival and at once, I became uncomfortable. From a tender age, I detest children. Up until now, the fact that some people were obsessed with children baffles me, making me wonder what was special about them. This

Loretta's POV “Calm down, it's me.” Thanks to Alpha Lorenzo's voice, I was already at the verge of passing out. Staring at my arm which he grasped tightly, he quickly pulled away and then started to dart his eyes around like a child caught in an unholy act. “What are you doing here?” I asked, crossing my hands on my chest. “I'm the one who's supposed to be asking that.” He huffed only to start walking off the next second. Just when he was about to disappear from the hallway, with a loud voice, I yelled, “Are you leaving just like that?” “What about the questions you want to ask? I bet you're no longer curious like I thought.” I shrugged as a knowing smile spread across my lips. If Alpha Lorenzo was here, it could mean only one thing and that is, he was eavesdropping on my conversation with my father. “You shouldn't leave without satisfying your curiosity.” I added when he still wouldn't spare me a glance. Just when I thought he was going to ignore me, he turned around and wit

Lorenzo's POV After Loretta took her leave, I wanted to run after her to stop her but my pride wouldn't let me move my feet. She had struck a chord in me, this she was fully aware of. Not going to lie, I was mesmerized by her boldness. “She clearly stated that she wouldn't be a coward forever.” I muttered, sending my teeth into my lips. “Let's see if that will happen.” I huffed, rolling my eyes to the back of my head as I grasped the document I was holding even more tightly. In anger, I released my grip and in a few minutes, I had torn the document into minute pieces and tossed them into the air. Yet to be relieved from the anger which was running through my veins, I began to pace from one end to the other end, trying to get a grasp of my emotion. “Loretta is not her father's accomplice, I’m sure of that.” I muttered, clenching and unclenching my fists in rhythm. With the way she had reacted earlier, it was crystal clear that she wasn't on the same page with her father but s

Loretta's POV The looks I was getting from Maya made me uncomfortable. Several times, I tried to draw her attention to it and ask the reason why she acted that way but I couldn't voice out my thoughts. When it seemed it was going to continue this way, I cleared my throat and at once we locked gazes which she was quick to break out from. “Is there a problem?" I mouthed, propping myself on the pillow. “Nothing." She shook her head sideways but I wasn't done yet. She kept giving me strange looks only to claim there was nothing wrong.This was a blatant lie which I wasn't going to fall for.“You keep staring at me, there must be something you want to voice out." I pressed on. Taking a deep breath, she combed through her hair with her fingers before returning her gaze to me. “I was just wondering what made you special." She mouthed, igniting my curiosity. Leaning forward, I grasped the edge of the bed, “What are you talking about?" “Alpha Lorenzo would have watched the fire consu

Author's POV Since Gamma Williams returned, he hasn't been himself. It was either he was pacing about or muttering incoherent words to himself or in extreme cases he completely zoned out. Rose and Rita whom had been watching him closely was getting terrified with his actions but none of them approached him yet. When it seemed it was going to continue this way if they didn't find out what was troubling him, Rita and her daughter approached him. “It's been over three hours since you returned." She began. “You didn't tell us the outcome of the meeting but you keep pacing about, something is wrong, right?"“Loretta." He snarled and at once, mother and daughter exchanged glances with a look of confusion clouding their faces. “What about her?" It was Rose who spoke this time around. “She refused to be a spy and find more information about Alpha Lorenzo which would be enough to pull him down in one attempt." He said through his teeth, clenching his fists by his side. “Can you imagine

Loretta's POV“What do you think you’re doing?” I snapped, grabbing Lorenzo’s hand midair.A moment ago, I felt a strange sensation on my thigh—like someone was trying to remove my clothes.At first, I thought I was dreaming but when I caught a glimpse of Alpha Lorenzo from the corner of my eye, I knew at once that this was real.“Those scars… what are they?” he asked, completely ignoring my question.Pushing him away, I scrambled to my feet, my face flushed with embarrassment as I recalled the first time I appeared completely naked in front of him Without another word, I turned to leave, but he blocked my path.“I’m speaking to you.” His voice was low but it was accompanied with a dangerous growl that sent chills racing down my spine.I shut my eyes tightly, my nails digging into my palms as my heart pounded against my ribs, each beat syncing with my ragged breaths.The scars he saw were a cruel reminder of my past—the suffering inflicted on me by my own family.

Lorenzo's POVAfter leaving Loretta's side, I made my way towards my study to get some work done as I had been slacking off recently. Several times, I found myself drifting off for a moment all because of Loretta. The scars and the sad drawing was a clear indication of all the hard times she had gone through in the hands of her family and this made me pity her even more. My instincts which were never wrong had been bugging me ever since I saw her lying on the cattle dung. “Loretta isn't his precious daughter, why did he decide to marry her off to me?" I pondered, my chin resting on my hand. Did he do this to punish her? — I thought, creating a scenario in my head. “What if we team up and punish him instead." I muttered only to shake the thought off. Trusting people was hard. Everyone around me were tagged enemies and I must confess it had been of immense help to me. Loretta must have connived with her family to con me by making herself pitiful. Too bad, they had the wrong ta

He growled, matching my intimidating pose but I wasn't going to cower, not anymore.The nightmare I had further prompted me to take action against my father. It was crystal clear that they orchestrated Grandma’s death which was unpardonable on my end.On the other hand, I wanted to form an alliance with Lorenzo but he was proving stubborn. All this was merely an act to break through his wall of defense and then with his help, I will make father pay for what he had done. I don't care what business he has with father, they are going to handle that themselves. “Nullify the contract already." I repeated my earlier words, storming right back into the chambers. “This is just our fourth month of being together, we have eight more months to scale through and then we go our own way." “Going our separate ways now wouldn't make a huge difference… oh,
