Leroi's POVI waited patiently or rather impatiently for them to arrive . I had send Micheal to help me fetch Angelina because I would very much like to avoid as much stress as I can .I glanced at my wristwatch again, and sighed. This is half past six . And I have a lot to do .As if on par with my thought , they entered the private dining room. The VIP section .She was wearing a crop top that revealed her belly button and some slack trousers of some sort. Micheal walked towards me with a grim look on his face. Angelina must have given him the hell of a time. The exact thing I was hoping to avoid by sending Micheal in my stead"Here she is alpha. A tough one , if I may add" he blew out an unruly streak of his long hair and sighed. Bowing quickly and leaving in the same manner as if the devil himself was breathing on his neck. Well , Angelina was no less than a devil. I noticed her eyes trailing along each and every hastened movement of Micheal.Hmmm , interesting. After Micheal's
Micheal's POVEverything had been going smoothly since yesterday, and the day before untill it stopped. Yes, everything stopped going smoothly the instant that lady set her foot in my office. I glanced up from the file I was working on ,and grabbed the ringing intercom "Yes?""You have a visitor sir."A visitor? That was rare. I never have visitors. But since this was a business Organization and Leroi wasn't around , I guess it is possible to have visitors "Let them in." I said briskly, after a minute or two of hesitation.But no one came in. What is this all about ?"I thought you said I have a visitor? Or are they ghost? Cos there's no one in my office right now." I lowered my voice to a dramatic effect. "I'm so sorry sir. They insisted on a meeting. In the conference room." My secretary spoke frantically. I ended the call and watched as the telephone slipped from my finger. I pinched my brow and adjusted my tie. Some partners can be insane in their demands. But it was left t
Erica's POV"Hmm yummy." I said as I savored the tasty and cold ice cream. Leroi would tear me into pieces if he find out about this little adventure of mine but that was all the more reason for him not to know. The past few weeks we've come to something like an agreement, or to put it simply a truce. He still hadn't told me anything about his unnatural hatred for rogue but I believed he will one day. Or maybe not. I eat my ice cream and moaned in delight. The texture was perfect as it melt into my mouth.Francis had I had gotten along so well during this past week in Leroi absence. The house tend to be boring but Francis keep me well entertained. Yesterday we played a game of guessing. I had laughed so hard till my eyes burned of years of laughter and my ribs hurt from convulsions of laughter. Leroi had been the one to dismiss us and send me to bed. But none the less I was happy. But there's something that keeps nagging me. As if this feeling is just a dream .I sometimes pinch
Angelina's POVI threw on my padded sweater and my boot. I was going on a journey and the place is known for its ruthless cold. So I have to be prepared . It's been three weeks since the last issue with Leroi. Since he cut off our agreement. I'm still proud of myself for doing such a great job at masking my emotions perfectly . I saw the suprised and amused look in his face ,when I told him in calm manner that there was nothing wrong with breaking our relationship out . It wasn't even a real relationship. I had saidHe looked skeptical but also relieved. Meanwhile I was burning inside. Taking a breath becomes an impossible task . I tried , really tried to chew the food while appearing to enjoy it .When in reality the thing tasted like a piece of parchment paper on my tongue. I chewed , swallowed and glanced at him . My mouth felt bitter , and a bile rose in my throat. He was calling us off? Calling me off? Breaking up with me , because of that little rogue chit? No problem. I
Micheal's POVThe day was going bad enough, and I did not think it could get any worse. But apparently, I'd been wrong on that score.My day started with a hell of an headache because I had gotten myself drunk to the core yesterday. And werewolves don't get drunk quickly, so yeah. It took quite a lot of time.I yanked the tangled bedsheet off me , and went into the bathroom. I stood under the shower, with my suit and everything and turned on the warm water.The slight warm drizzle , helped a bit with my head. And I proceeded to brush my teeth.A quick scrap of toothbrush here and there , I spat it out and rinsed it off. I was done.I figured I should get out of this wet suit, from yesterday if I may add and get some breakfast. Before taking another well deserved rest. My phone rang on my way out of the kitchen and I frown. I wasn't expecting any call this morning, at least not as early as that."Hello" I answered into the phone without pausing to check who the caller was "Mike? Ther
Angelina's POVMy mouth twisted into that of disgust as the brute of a man all but haul me out of the way. "It will be to your best interest of you could fill me in before that mechanic of yours arrive. What happened and why are you here?" He was already moving to check the car.His subtle method of asking questions did not escape me, afterall I was a trained wolf myself."Well I was on my way to ma..somewhere. But I miscalculated the GPS tracker and so , here I am. But I won't answer your second question." I told him defiantly.He should know who is it that he was dealing with. It would do us both a great deal of favor, if he could stop thinking the mind manipulation thingy would work on me. Cos it wouldn't.And that would just lead to more awkward situation.He shook his head and snorted, unbuttoning his cuffs with one hand and rolling his sleeve with the other.For a moment, I was entranced. The rolled up sleeves revealed his huge veiny hand. He had tattoo all over his arm. Long a
Erica's POVI was dozing off on the chair by the time leroi was home. The sun had set, setting the balcony into what seems like an half darkness.A yawn slipped out of my mouth and I rubbed my eyes with the back of my hand , trying to get the sleep off them. I checked my wristwatch and sighed. This is half past 7pm and Leroi isn't home yet.These days, his behavior had been suspicious. Coming home late, working overnight and not sleeping on the same bed as me.My face pinked slightly at the thought of bed. Just last week, Leroi and I had done the deed. And it was every bit of glorious and delightful like Francis has told me.He had been gentle at first, before taking the whole love making to a new level. Riding him, different positions that I did not even know was possible. Our relationship had taken a dynamic turn ever since my sickness. He had been fussing over me ,day and night. He had become a tad bit agreeable and listens to whatever it is that I was telling him. And there wa
Leroi's POVI closed my laptop with an experated sigh. I was having a damn hard time trying to get her off my mind. Not only my mind , she's been living rent free in my head and how she got under my blood stream I don't know . I called for a scathing hot cup of black coffee , perhaps it'll help me get my head back at the task at hand. I wasn't asking for too much , damnit! She was supposed to be agreeable! And polite! No questions,just to do as she was asked !But apparently she wasn't that type of girl. I thought if I treated her like my mate, I would surely get past the fact that she was rogue. The same ones that murdered my parents in cold blood..But I'm very wrong. As our relationship progress,all I could think of was what she was. a rogue , a rogue , a rogue. That was the only input my brain was taking in.As this last days had been pretty intense. Even for me. The matter of the black witches were getting out of hand. They lunched a mini attack to the wolves on our farm and
Leroi's Pov The tension in the room was palpable as we all processed what had just happened. Erica lay peacefully on the sofa, oblivious to the chaos surrounding her. I couldn't shake the image of her doppelganger from my mind – the tears, the pain in her eyes. Was it a vision of the future? A trick? My head was spinning."We need to protect her," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "If Bathsheba can create such powerful illusions, who knows what else she's capable of?"Kevin stepped forward, his expression unreadable. "I may have a solution," he said. "But you're not going to like it."I narrowed my eyes. "What is it?"He took a deep breath. "There's an ancient ritual that can temporarily sever the mate bond. It would make it harder for Bathsheba to track Erica through your connection."The room fell silent. The mere thought of severing our bond, even temporarily, made my wolf howl in protest. But if it meant keeping Erica safe..."How long would it last?" I asked, my voice hoa
Leroi POV "Stop staring Leroy you are creating a hole in my chest", she said still staring at the pasta "I don't mind creating a hole in every part of your body", I said hugging her while sniffing in her body fragrance. "I am busy, she said. "Don't worry," I won't disturb you that much I said. "Suit yourself," she added. "Can I return to the company now"? she asked "Erica is too risky maybe a little while from now".I said letting go of her waist so she could serve dinner "I missed your cooking Erica", I said helping her with the dishes after the dinner. "Did the fake Erica not cook for you? she asked "She was so lazy and even still wondering who impersonated your body, that person must be too lazy". I said making her laugh out loud trying to calm herself down in the process. "Why are you insulting the person that much"? "That is not an insult it is just the truth, she was always sleeping at any chance she got" I added "Aren't you sleeping yet cuz I want to watch a mara
Leroi's POV "Leroy did you call for me" Erica yelled from within the closet "Just hurry up I am waiting earnestly for you" I yelled back before heading back to the sitting room to take my phone which I left on the desk earlier, I open the phone to find a message from an unknown number 'no matter where you hide I will always find you' the message was kind of threatening but I knew it was from Bathsheba or Angelina they are my two greatest enemies right now and they both are witches with connection two different breeds, but one thing they don't know is that I am also from a family of strong witches with incredible powers but I'm always in hiding because of their enormous and great powers. "Baby what is going through your mind," Erica said from behind " I want you to meet my family" I replied avoiding her gaze " what family I thought your parents were killed by rogues which caused a huge commotion in our relationship from the start" As Erica they were killed how am I sure Eri
Chapter 75"I am on my way to the city, not too far from the region barrier," I said noticing Erica was now getting calmer than before."Find us, I will call you back," I said opening the passenger seat, to a now calmer Erica."Erica are you alright "I asked tapping her cheeks gently, so she could regain consciousness or at least answer my rants."Leroi, "she said softly, opening her eyes she felt different in my palms was being spell removed?"Erica you are back I thought I had lost you for good," I said hugging her tightly"What happened to me I only remembered confronting the spy and….""You confronted Betty, "I asked"Yes""That was why you were placed under a spell, so you won't tell me," I said still hugging her, like she would vanish any moments"She claimed not to be a spy and pleaded with me to let her keep her job, despite the situation that was all I could remember," Erica said massaging her scalp "Bathsheba placed you under her spell but I think the barrier broke
Leroi's Pov"Why is the witch after your life," Susan asked" my Luna," I said "the rogue" with his stupid smirk "stop don't call her a rogue" my uncle defended"Thanks, Uncle but she means everything to me and I'm afraid all my effort might go to absolute waste," I said, trying to look as convincing and sincere as possible." We would help you but we need to know what exactly happened to her," my aunt said as Susan and my uncle nod in response "She's under a spell but the issue is that, which of you can go and see everything that happens around I don't want her to know about any of you, "I said making them silent as they try to come up with a solution "we will find a way and get back to you. you need to head home now, it's very late already, she is at home alone " my uncle said. I'm prepared to leave as they all escorted me to the front door except Kelvin of course he hates me right now."Goodbye, "I said waving at everyone before leaving I will be back with Erica no matte
~ Leroi's pov~It was part midnight and time for Betty's half-breed's meetup, so we followed her every move. Though we gave her a few steps space as she walked slowly towards the warehouse. She went in first while we stayed behind to find out if the leaders were among them today, and just as we prayed she tagged along today but her face was covered with a hat" Betty why are you late, it's past midnight," the lady said softly as Betty kneeled in front of the lady shivering. She should better not say a word about us till her leader reveals her face. " Betty say something," one of her pack said" You know ….. its difficult to escape the mansion mostly now that AlphaLeroi is at home due to Erica's change of behavior" Betty said " That's true, I hope the spell lasts till we get what we want" the leader responded" But what would happen if Leroi finds out something is really off about Erica," Betty asked, making everything worst. Why would she ask such a dumb question I thought she
Leroi's POV"How?" She's angry "How could you make that happen…why are you always falling for her tricks""I didn't fall for her tricks …I went to her myself" " You went to Bathsheba yourself…why!!" She pushed me on the chest" You went to a witch " she added still pushing me I try to hold her in one place but she was already tearing up" I didn't do it on purpose I only went there to save the company" I exclaimed hugging her tightly" You should be careful..all the time, I always thought you would do everything to avoid her because no matter what she would always trick you" " Is that why you hid the fact that a spy was in this mansion" She looked speechless and avoided my gaze"What would you gain from this …all this stubbornness where would it take you," I asked hugging her tightly..she whimpered on my chest" I don't want you to kill anyone""That's why you prefer to be in danger," I asked..she shrugged" So you prefer to make me worried than happy?"
