Chapter 37

Lex's Pov

I thought I could avoid her, set a boundary, and continue peacefully till the contract is over.

I wanted to concentrate on the Pack, the Parliament as my dad was thinking of making me take over the Presidential seat and increasing my company revenue.

That was perfect for me and everyone, it was the reason why Lilia was in the picture, to stand as a personality to cover up in my personal growth and that's of the pack but I was failing woefully.

I was dwindling terribly with each passing day.

I saw the hurt in her eyes, and the expression of pain when she learned about her company.

No matter how pissed I was at the fact that she tried to have her way with my brother. I want to believe her so badly but the conviction of how this lady hates me makes it hard. She might have done that to piss me off which made Xander twitch In displeasure.

I was beginning to want more, I just wanted to see her smile at me for once in her entire existence of

    Chapter 38Lilia's Pov I groaned in a hissing pain as the bright lights sent a force to my eyes, increasing the pounding pain that spread to the back of my head.I fluttered my eyes open to see a blur of the beautiful diamond lights above my head and the familiar nauseating smell of medicine twirled in my nose making a bile of irritated saliva pile up.I knew what happened, I remembered vividly that I was standing next to Jerry to ask him if he was in trouble, if he was going to be sacked, and if he would be okay but the old man saw my questions amusingly and laughed it out, telling me he was okay.We talked about the city, the Pack, Midnight Shade in particular, and the secrets they harbor which piqued my interest like honey. He talked about Lex's company and the challenges that come with working there in a day.The old man was too friendly to be a butler. I asked him about his children and he just smiled sadly which was a conviction that something bad must have happened.But all of

I told him excitedly and he fought back a chuckle."It's just a normal job, don't get too excited," Raven told me and tried to get my bag but I swatted his hands away."Don't do that and stop acting like my bodyguard! You're a beta to a powerful Pack!" I told him again for the umpteenth time today.Raven was still reserved and stone cold but since Lex left for wherever he went, he began to loosen up. Treating me for breakfast and not even letting the maid I saw today serve me.I thought I saw a side of possessiveness in Lex but Raven was worse."You're Luna and not a speck of stress should be found near you..""You make it sound as if all this is real," I told him as I got into the car and he shrugged."At least, you're real." He said and drove out of the mansion. My heart settled at ease as we drove past the glas

    Contracted to the Wrong AlphaChapter 40***Lilia's PovWhat was meant to be a blissful blessing for me by going out every day, became a curse in disguise.I hid my discomfort from Raven, I knew he would stop me immediately or confront Isabella but there was more to my work right now.I was being tossed here and there like some garbage truck and seen as nothing but an intern of the whole enterprise but something piqued my interest each passing day.Almost half of the workers were nonhuman, making me believe the majority would be from the Mid Nightshade Pack which scared the wits out of me, another thing was the dubious acts and crimes involved.I might not be a business expert but I know illegal deals and signatures on files that have nothing to do with the company's revenue. Isabella wasn't left out as I carried files from all corners for signing, the men knew I was a wolf and that tripled my suffering.I took awareness of all of them, aside from the front desk lady working for Lex s

Gosh! It's just a punch!'I muttered under my breath and two men and a lady sprang into action as if they'd been waiting for a moment like this."You bitçhy wolf! What have you done?" The lady glared at me, the two men carried the man up to move outside and Lee rolled her eyes at me."He's such a softie! We didn't punch him too hard."I agreed with my wolf, nodding in agreement but the lady seemed to be more agitated than ever.She's in the marketing department, always with the blue ribbon tied to her head. The look she gives me any time I'm sent there is clear evidence she detests me.I wasn't welcomed in this company! No one likes me and I don't give a damn. If Tessy co

    Chapter 42****Lex's Pov"That's not going to happen, Alveria!" I snapped at her and the shock that contorted her face was visible but I care less.I might withdraw the affiliates I have with Green Howling Pack for Killing their Alpha but I would not render an apology and make Lilia serve the pack for a month to make an appeasement. They might kill her and give a flimsy excuse."But that's the normal thing to do Alpha! The Alpha of Ring Shadow pack was an example when he killed a fellow Alpha as a mistake. You shouldn't let stubbornness cloud your reasoning or a war might break out soon!" Alveria insisted but as much as she was right, I'm not doing that shit.Ryker did something horrible and I acted, my actions shouldn't be judged. Other packs know that too well than to mess with me, not even my father would dare say a word. Having Alveria as the Pack Priestess was making me begin to question my authority, I can't believe that I would have to present my actions towards her to be judg

    Chapter 43Lex's Pov****I raked my hands on my hair fluffily as I strode downstairs. The sun gave a glow in the house making everywhere bright as I slowly sipped the hot coffee from the mug.The house was quiet and silent save for Jerry who kept making clacking sounds in the kitchen.My body tensed up when I realized that Lilia wasn't there, I could feel it.Dread washed over me as the first thought that came into my mind was the fact that she fled again and immediately I'm on my phone, calling my beta desperately and feeling pissed at my reaction.I was still trying not to believe the fact that I jerked myself out thinking about her! It's absurd but the feeling was out of this world.If only I hadn't tasted her, if only I didn't know what she felt like then I wouldn't have been battling with these confused emotions swirling all over me."Where the fuck are you?" I growled at Raven and he released a frustrated sigh at the other end."Lex's Enterprise." He blurted out and I wonder if

I scolded my wife and pushed the wheel to other departments."You know I'm saying the truth, Lex is hot and I want him.""Gosh! At the expense of what he did to us? I can't believe you're already falling for his charms already and you expect to be free! That man has it all and you think he would stoop so low to think of wanting us?"I asked Lee who suddenly became quiet and a bitter pain enveloped her, affecting me too.I know, the truth is bitter but I'd rather live with the thought that we'll never fit into Lex's criteria and I don't want a proud cocky man for myself.Today felt different in Lex's Enterprise, I felt confident and energetic and I didn't mind Isabella's loud voice and yellings. All I know is that I'

Like she already saw this coming and she must give up and let it go to them no matter what, which pissed me off as hell.I was Infuriated but I had to be patient enough to listen to their trash accusations till the finish line."So that's it Boss, the careless and unprofessional attitude came from Lucia. She misplaced the files as usual and couldn't give a valid reason for that." That's Jake, standing like the most humble professional gentleman and lowering his voice at Lex who seemed to be disturbed.His beautiful dazzling eyes were now dull

No nightmares, no tossing about and sighing in confusion or panic that he might get hurt whatsoever. He was right here with me, staring at me with those beautiful golden eyes that darkened immediately my eyes fluttered open to be sure of our surroundings. We were still in the woods, the sun was yet to get a peak of its horizon but there's a sign it would come anytime soon with a full force. I didn't realize what had happened last night because I saw myself being sprawled on soft grass with Lex's shirt wrapped around me as a shield from the cold when he even needed it more. He looked like a fantasy carved out to life as his stare on me lingered like a drunken piece of art meant to take my breath away. His hands caressed my cheeks and his eyes suddenly dimmed in discomfort when I twitche

He wouldn't look at me either but crush to the ground to growl in pain making Seraphina chuckle in satisfaction.“What the fuck is this Seraphina!” I screamed, heading towards her in a vigor that might consume me and she shrugged.“Just doing the right thing, he needs to run mad and the powers will be intact, he would go calm and –”I slapped her so hard and she shrieked

I underestimated Seraphina and let my guard down again, right before my eyes, I experienced a horror I never thought would happen and everything was moving so fast like a dark forbidden abyss. Felix was released because they were accomplices, it broke the living daylight out of me because the first word he told me was “I will fuck your Luna again, but this time around Alex, you will be the only one to wash the tape while you dance to the tune of your demonic powers during the full moon.” I messed everything up because I let my weakness to overwhelm me.
