CHAPTER FORTY TWO: More Surprises

Maurene’S POV

Liam finally explained everything to me. The hidden work he needed to sort out and why he always had to leave with a call. He was doing everything to make sure the car was imported into the country and that nothing went wrong. There were times when he was called and he had to sort out some papers. I finally understood him. Somehow I knew Liam wouldn’t do something that would hurt me. All these while he has had me in his mind and he wanted to do something that would make me happy.

“Do you like it?” His voice brought me back into reality and I blinked up at him from the shiny Lamborghini that was parked right before me. He had gotten this for me.

It was too shiny and flashy but still, he got it for me. My head bobbed on its own accord as I was mesmerized by the black beauty radiating before me. I had always had it in plans to get myself a car but expenses keep swallowing the money. Liam getting me a car had helped me to cut costs

    CHAPTER FORTY-THREE: A Birthday To Remember Maurene’S POV Somehow I was grateful Liam told me me before meeting Nathaniel. Maybe he was going to change. He had already spoken with Gerlad who told him Nathaniel was busy with some other issues. I had overheard him speaking with him. I wondered what other issues he was dealing with. No wonder he had not been able to meet me. I let out a deep sigh, slightly glancing at the car key on the table, the thought of the everything Liam planned for me was still new and the feeling was yet to subside within me. He had shown me the tickets he got and we were to go in the noon. I had wanted to ask why he chose the noon time but he replied before I asked. He said that he knew that he was going to tell us about it very late so he wanted us to get the chance to pack. I appreciated his initiative. A smile crossed my lips as I dropped my shoulder in relief. Maybe my birthday wasn't that bad at all. “Yes, we agreed to talk with some blogge

    CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR: Proof Of Love Maurene’S POV My brows furrowed first before my lips parted to speak but nothing came out. He beat me to it as he sat on the couch, pulling his trousers up by the knees. “I know you are thinking that it is not wise. I know too but apparently, this is the only way. We can't keep letting the traffic go to that site. My clients are going to be badly affected and they might even start second-guessing if they want to invest with me. What do you think?” I blinked once. Then twice. This really caught me unaware. “Well,” I swallowed hard. “Can’t we just release any letter to the press and ask that Nathaniel does the same?” I asked him. I didn't really want us to go that far. The kids didn't even know what was going on between us yet and the fact that we had to dress up like the couple that we were not, not just that, we will have to upload the pictures too. What would my kids think of me? “Letter about what?” He asked, raising his brows. “

    CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE: A Date With Him Maurene’S POV Liam’s car was parked right before the penthouse. I didn't even know when he left the house. He was leaning against the car with his arms folded as he watched me exit the penthouse. My eyes ran over his body, taking in how clad he was in a well-tailored suit which was obviously expensive. Liam knew how to dress like a man and how to navigate the attention of women to himself. I twisted my lips as I walked to him, suddenly feeling conscious of the dress he had gotten for me. “You look beautiful in the dress. I knew it would look perfect on you!” He grinned up at me and blush crept unto my cheeks. What was happening to me? Why was I blushing? He opened the door for me and I stepped in, without questioning him. I knew Liam would always want the best for me. He circled the car and settled in the driver’s seat, making sure he put the seat belt in place and I did the same as well. “So where to?” I asked him, wiggling my brows.

    CHAPTER FORTY-SIX: You Are Mine Maurene’S POV I bit my lower lip as anxiety rolled through my veins in great measure. What was he doing here? He should not be here! I thought Grayson said he was busy with something. I looked up at Liam who turned around, stepping beside me as he snaked his arm around my waist, pulling me closer to him. Nathaniel’s eyes followed the movement and I noticed his fist clench tight. How did he know I was here? “Alpha Nathaniel.” Liam acknowledged, adding a tight smile. Nathaniel’s eyes were blank as he stepped forward. “I didn't think I would be meeting you here.” He glanced between the two of us. I lifted my chin, playing along with Liam. He smiled, looking at me with emotions I dared not accept. “My wife’s birthday was yesterday and I thought to bring her on a trip to this place. With what happened, I could not risk leaving her in NYC.” He stated. Nathaniel’s brows jumped up briefly before he nodded. “I will leave you to enjoy your moment

    CHAPTER FORTY- SEVEN: A Psychopath Amanda’S POV I let out an annoyed hiss as I stared at the stupid blog posts again. They won't stop making silly posts about Nathaniel and Maurene. I didn't really care about Maurene but Nathaniel, it was affecting his reputation. Why did that bitch have to come back anyway? She could have just disappeared into thin air like she did years back. Aish, she just had to come back to ruin things. “Amanda, you need to relax. I think Nathaniel got it under control.” Miranda told me, dropping her glass of wine as she leaned back on the chair. I tucked my hair before my ears as the breeze blew softly. I let out a scoff. Nathaniel hardly came home nowadays and it has been three days since Grayson and him left the pack house without saying anything. I even tried asking him where he was going but he ignored me. “Why do these bloggers think they can post anything they want? Gosh, I wish I could sue them!” Annoyance was evident on my face. “We all

    CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT: Fighting Rivals Nathaniel’S POV “Why won't I recognize you from first glance, huh? No matter what you tell me or pretend not to know me, I will always know that you are my Maurene. You are mine, Maurene. Mine and no one else.” I remembered what I had told Maurene. I was already getting of her lying through her teeth that she was not the one. I knew she was the one even from the first time I had met her. There was no way I would not. I had watched them come into the restaurant. I was confused, even though I barely believed the story of their marriage. I knew Maurene, she would not marry Liam. I finally understood what the manager had said when he told me that someone had rented the rooftop. Normally, we used the place for a special event for lovers because of the view, and when I was told that someone had offered to pay triple, I was skeptical. I thought to check the person who was singing because her voice was nice and soothing, only for me to see Liam an

    Maurene’ S POV I felt filthy and dirty. Two men… two men kissed me tonight and I allowed them. All I just wanted to do right now was to wash my body off every touch from Nathaniel. I rushed to where Liam was waiting for me and by the time I reached there, I was already crying. I didn't know why. Maybe because I was taken aback when Nathaniel told me that he was not convinced that I was married to Liam. I thought I was doing great at acting. Gosh! Liam pulled me into a hug. Something I needed right now. After a while, he pulled the door open for me and I entered. “Do you want to go home straight?” He asked me, dipping the key into the keyhole. “Yes. Just take me home.” I said to him and relaxed, positioning my head to rest. Thankfully, he understood better. The drive back home was silent and somehow I regretted going out today. I was running away from him and somehow we always meet. I hated it. I wish there was a place in this world I could go to and not meet him. We soon got to

    CHAPTER FIFTY: A Family Outing Maurene’S POV I walked out of the bathroom, feeling lifted a bit. I realized that there was nothing I could do. So what if he knew I was the one? What if I was the real one? I did not care because there was no way in the world I would get back with him. Not after he rejected me before his pack and Amanda. I sniffed in, packing my hair in a bun when Liam entered the room and I lifted my gaze to him. The kiss we had shared replayed in my head and I let out an exhale. Thank goodness, none of us spoke about it. He held a tray containing a glass of water and some tablets. “I brought this for you in case you were feeling any kind of pain.” He dropped it beside the bed. I didn't know how to appreciate him so I offered him a small smile. “Thank you.” Maybe I was wrong about him. Liam has been watching out for me and the kids all this while. He has been that pillar we didn't think we needed. His lips pursed in a smile. “Maurene, you know you can always t

    Chapter 121 Chapter One Hundred And Twenty-One: A Union Amanda’S POV I knew Martins was dangerous. I knew he could not be trusted and I decided to get into contract with him. What I didn't expect was that he would be the one who secretly tormented me and acted like… the savior. I still couldn't believe what Grayson had told me. At this point, I didn't care about what his father did or him… he should kill me. That was the worst he could do, right? I alighted from the car and went into his mansion straight up. Pushing the door open, as expected they were in the living room. They both rose to their feet on seeing me, confused as to the reason I was there. “Amanda, what are you—” I went toward the real Martins and James Cox who happened to be named Maxwell. “Martins. Huh? You are Martins? You are James Cox as well! Isn't it? You lied to me, right? Used me? Right? You wanted to slowly torment me till I went crazy, huh?” I pushed him hard, noticing the look of surprise that

    Chapter 120 Chapter One Hundred And Twenty: The Beginning Of The End Nathaniel’S POV She raised her head to me, her red-rimmed eyes glancing down at my lips as she slowly pulled herself up to me. I had somehow gotten her back to one of my penthouses because I didn't want the kids to see their mother in such a broken state. She began to take her clothes off one by one, and my throat bobbed. “Are you sure about this?” I asked, wanting to keep my conscience clear in case she woke up tomorrow and realized her mistakes. She slowly nodded, stepped out of the skirt, and touched my arm. Gosh, I have missed her. I missed her so much. She leaned closer and let me capture her lips in a kiss. It started off slow and sensual but soon proceeded into ravenous. My hands snuck around her waist, and pulled her closer, smashing her tight to my chest. I wanted to feel her. Feel her skin. Be in her skin. I angled my head properly in order to take her lips, and taste her. Every time I saw

I didn't recognize who this woman was but all I knew was that with the visible fear on Liam’s face, she was someone important. “And why are you here?” He questioned her, obviously rattled by her presence. The woman snickered, stepping before Nathaniel. “You think you can rule the wolves? That is just a dream in your silly head. Just like your mother thought she would become the queen of wolves! You are nothing but a result of a stupid dream she had.” She hissed through her crooked teeth as she glared down in disgust at him. Oh, she must be from his mother’s side. “My mother was too weak to win but I will win and you just have to watch it then. I will make sure to bring tribute to you when I sit on the throne,” He smiled menacingly at her. The woman didn't waver. “Liam, give m

    Chapter One Hundred And Seventeen: Kai Goes Missing Maurene’S POV I closed my eyes tight, still riling from the hurt of his words. I didn't think Liam could be that awful. In fact, I had my few suspicions that he could be doing something worse but what I didn't suspect was that he was doing pure evil. The fact that I had also remained oblivious to it made me want to go crazy. I didn't need anyone telling me that Liam had used me. It was glaring and I would be in denial if I didn't want to believe it. Now he told me that he wanted to meet me and explain the kind of person Evangeline was. All of them… they all wanted to use me against Nathaniel. They wanted his pack and they were not able to get it. I had decided to let go of the past and focus on the present with Evangeline, what I didn't expect was that Nathaniel would change toward me. The kiss from last night was still real but the sting of his words speared through my heart. The fact that he told me that

    Chapter One Hundred And Sixteen: Blaire is chosen as the Alpha King Nathaniel’S POV “We will help you to the throne if you allow us, Nathaniel.” Seth said, his thick voice cutting through as we all sat in the office. I stared at him blankly, wondering how everything was so intertwined. “The throne? Who said I wanted the throne? Your nephew?” I arched my brows as I relaxed back in my seat. I didn't let my roam to the feminine figure sitting just beside Grayson who gave me a pained look. I have been doing a great of ignoring them which worked quite well. “You don't?” Seth sounded that he could not believe it. I shook my head. “I don't.” “Then you don't know anything then.” He snorted. I wanted to ask him what that was about but I decided against it. “Since the Alpha King has gone missing and you have chosen not to divulge his whereabouts, it is only right that another Alpha King will be chosen. And that person should be you.” He said, glancing at his nephew. “I s

    Chapter One Hundred And Fifteen: Blaire is chosen as the Alpha King Nathaniel’S POV “I want him to be your new Beta.” My father told me, introducing Grayson to me. I wondered why my father didn't let me choose on my own but I trusted his judgment. “Hi, I'm Nathaniel,” I said, extending my hands out to him. He took it. “Grayson.” Our gaze locked and I knew at that moment that we would be doing together from now on. I wanted to ask my father where he had seen him because I knew he was not from our pack but I decided against it since I could ask Grayson and he would answer. Except Grayson never made mention of who he was or where he was from. We never went in runs and he never showed his wolf. Or should I say, Lycan? I didn't know how to react or what to even say. Shock was an understatement of what I was feeling at present. I was starting to question everything around me. From my marriage to Maurene, to making Grayson my Beta, to my divorce, and to being the center

    Chapter One Hundred And Fourteen: The Lycan Officials Nathaniel’s POV I drove straight for the Alpha Blaire’s pack. That was where they had told the Lycan officials to meet. I was beyond shocked when Grayson had told me. It made me think that they were trying to win the Lycans over to themselves but then I thought of the siblings I was accommodating at my pack. Did Grayson know about this? I didn't want to think that way. Grayson must have hidden it for a good reason but the fact that he could not trust me with that truth proved how much he thought of me. I had hurt his sister those years when I didn't accept her love for me. It was only right that he hated me. I shook my head, trying to keep a blank level until Grayson called again. “Yes?” I answered through the blue tooth. “The meeting has been canceled.” He said. Why did they— “They are meeting at our pack instead.” That threw me off Balance. I screeched to a halt on the road. What? “How?” That was all I could

    Chapter One Hundred And Thirteen: Investigation Nathaniel'S POV I didn't get the time to talk more about whatever it was Andreas had told me about Maurene as I needed to check on Alex. I needed to see how he was doing. All I was just hoping was that he was still alive because if he truly died, things would go terribly wrong for us. Blaire would be king. I was even starting to doubt for now. I shook my head, trying to maintain focus on the road. I tried not to think about what Andreas had told me. That was impossible. There was no way Maurene could be Sheridan and she was related to Harrison. I knew Harrison had ruled the Lycan Kingdom for as long as I could remember. He was one of the oldest rulers of that species yet I know yet I wondered why he had not searched for his daughter who had long gone missing if truly Maurene was Sheridan. I haven't checked the document Andreas had sent to me because I didn't have the heart to. This was going to change everything about Maurene.
