I felt my heart aching, I felt tears steering up in my eyes. I wasn’t gonna cry not because of a man I didn’t know! I am not that weak, not because of this.“Oh, nice to meet you, Alice!.” I said with the most convincing smile I could offer.I sat beside them, I watched as Alice played with Aidens blonde hair.^^^^{ This is horrible!!.} Marshal said through the mind link.{ Luna is extremely quiet, she hasn’t said a thing!} Liam mind-linked Marshal.{I think she’s uncomfortable with Alice being here!} Marshal replied.{who wouldn’t be, Alice is a show-off!}^^^I couldn’t take the display of affection! I was a fool to think he would love me. For a moment I thought he would love me like William loved my mom. He might have been horrible to me but he was a great example of true love. I could never be with someone like him, he was meant for a woman with class and a good family name, not me!!. Linda was right. I was a low-class girl who couldn’t attract a man like Aiden.I am not Cindere
“Mira where did you say this job is at?!.”“I bet you will love it! it’s not too far from here!.” Mira replied with her usual huge smile that always lit up her eyes.“You ball of Goff I hope this isn’t anything crazy!, you know what I like!.” I winked at her as I spoke.“We’re here!!.” Mira said with enthusiasm and then pointed to the house.“Damn!!, is this the president's house?!!.” I asked with wide eyes.Wow, the house was huge, I had only seen one other house as big as this. Aiden!. I couldn’t get him off my mind.“Let’s go in, I already got the job, all that you need to do is make sure the owner likes you!.” Mira told me as she dragged me into the building.^^^“Sir the new employee is her and brought a friend along like she said she would!.”The boss nodded and sent him out, he knew exactly what to do.^^^“Follow me!.”“Fancy Nancy!.” I whispered to Mira and we both laughed.Even the butler was extremely fancy.“Here they are, Young Master!.” The butler said with a slight bow
“You’re mistaken, I am not who you think I am!!.” I cried. “Please don’t hurt my friend!!.” I pleaded.“I can’t be wrong!!.” Aiden told me.Aiden grabbed my waist and pulled me into his embrace.“Let my friend go!.”I told Aiden. “Please don’t hurt her!!.”“I wouldn’t, Alora please understand, you are my missing rib!.”“No!!, no Aiden, don't use my words against me!!.” I pleaded.Tears ran down my eyes.“But you were right! every word you said was exactly right!.” Aiden told me.I pushed him away. With tears in my eyes, I saw Liam walk back in. “Aiden!, I can’t, I can’t do this!!.” I told him. “I can’t bear to be with a werewolf!!.”I felt the temperature in the room drop, I felt my breath size.“He is a Lycan, not a werewolf!.” Liam told me.“I had a terrible experience with your kind!!, I can’t, I just can’t !.” I said, trying to leave.I felt something hard hit me, it wasn’t someone but my own emotions, I felt memories I had buried, and I felt thoughts and experiences that I never
Aiden held my hand and I felt that spark. “Do you feel that?.” He asked meI looked up to see his red eyes had changed back to their initial colour. I nodded.“Have you ever felt this before?!.” Aiden asked as he placed his hand over both of my hands.I thought for a while, the room was quiet as though they were waiting for me to speak. He was right. I had never felt that before.“No,” I replied honestly.“Hello!!!, can someone help me out of here!!, please!.” Mira yelled as she banged on the door.“Make her quiet!.” Aiden instructed and Liam nodded.My eyes widened in shock. ‘Make her quiet?!.’ Is he going to kill her or hurt her?. What's going to happen to Mira? I can’t just sit down and let them hurt her.“Aiden..!” the name escaped my lips.“Yes?!.” He answered gently and sweetly with his eyes on me.“What’s going to happen to my friend?. What do you mean by making her quiet?!.” I asked in a hurry as I saw Liam was already at the door.“Nothing much.” He said with a joking voice.
Alora’s POVMira sat quietly on a couch, she looked frightened. I wonder what they did to make her calm and scared as well. The moment she saw me she got up immediately but it was as though something scared her away.What was wrong with her?!, I turned around to see Aiden and Marshal standing behind me and by myself Liam who was smiling.“Can I speak to her privately?!.” I asked.“You know there is no difference right!!.” Liam asked as he stared at Mira.He is right they were still going to hear everything we say, but Mira didn’t know what I did.“But still leave!!.” I said.They both nodded and left except for Aiden, I knew I couldn’t push him away so I let him in.“Mira are you okay?!.” I asked.Mira nodded and smiled at me, Aiden was a few steps away from me.“That’s great, I am going back to the restaurant to work, I might come to check on you after my closing time!.” I informed her, and Mira nodded one more time.I felt like I was talking to a five-year-old who was scared and I w
“I have seen you run and trust me, you wouldn’t get there on time!.” Marshal said.I frowned at him, we were wasting time, Mr Ken was getting into his car. I had no choice, I had to see another wolf.“Okay fine!.” I reluctantly agreed.The car came to an immediate hut, Liam got out of the car and opened the door and I got out, Aiden winked at me and I smiled.Liam pulled me into an alley.“You know you can decide to quit and work with Aiden?!.” Liam said.“Till I make that choice!.” I replied.“Look away!.” He told me.I nodded but kept my eyes on him when he saw I wasn’t moving, I heard a bone snap, muscles broke and tore, bones separated. The sound was painful yet I kept my eyes on Jik, in a second fur sprang out of his body covering his skin.He transformed into a huge, brown Wolf. I subconsciously walked towards him and felt his fur. The beast lay on the ground allowing me to climb on him, which I did. I dug my fingers into his fur and clapped my legs around him. I wasn’t ready to
I simply nodded as we were both in the elevator, Liam kept telling me stories about Lycans and werewolves in other words educating me.The elevator biped to indicate we have arrived at our destination. We both walked out of the elevator.“Girl you are killing this look!.” Liam exclaimed.I couldn’t help but laugh. He acted silly but yet very reserved and conscious. I wondered how he handled the two personalities.“Sit here and wait for me to return!.” Liam said before he left me in a huge office.I admired the office, with the glass wall that showed the city below it, it was a great view. The door was pushed open without me turning as I spoke.“Back so soon!.” I said with my eyes on the view.“Excuse me, who are you?!.” I heard a girl ask and I immediately turned around to see Alice.“Hi!.” I said nervously.She looked gorgeous even with my new look. I didn't match up to her, she had this aura that scared me a little.“You?!.” She said with disgust. “ Where is Aiden?!.” She asked.“I
I became anxious, about what had happened to her, Lincoln was taking forever to get out of the room. I sat down still trying to control my beast who was clawing and growling in my mind.“Alpha, please be calm, she will be okay!. Alora is a fighter!.” Marshal said, trying to calm me down.If only I had protected her better this wouldn’t have happened, I could have avoided this, I could have saved her but no!, I was too careless with the life of my mate.I walked out of the hospital, and I transformed into my beast.{Alpha!!, Alphal please calm down!!} Marshal screamed in my mind.I simply blocked all connections. My beast ran rampant I ran into a nearby forest where I relished my anger without hurting humans, I broke down trees, I bled as I hurt my, and I hallowed in pain, not from my many bruises but for my mate, I was guilty I had never forgiven myself if anything happened to her.^^^Alora’s POVI woke up, with my body stiff on a bed, I opened my eyes to a huge room, I had no idea
I felt unmeasurable joy in my heart, I couldn’t wait to see how this plays out!.Zemia pulled her into his arms. “I am sorry!.” I heard him say.What the heck!!, I saw Zemia pull her into his arms. “ I should have protected you!.”What kind of love is this?!. Alora wrapped her arms around Zemias neck. I could see bruises on her arms,neck, I saw a few on her exposed thighs as well . How rough was he with her?Wow what a lovely couple, too bad I have to put a horrible stop to your relationship. I let them have privacy, I walked away and went to Malicas room. I picked up my phone, it already had a new line in it!.I called celebrity news, the most watched news channel in New York that only talked about celebrities. I gave them a hint and let them shave their hairs out trying to make the news more juicy,But I am sure after what I have done they wouldn’t have to!.“How is your plan coming along?!.” Malica asked.“Very well!.” I replied with a grin. Malica was like a mother to me, she found
I felt joy in my heart that my husband had gotten his senses back. Did he ever lose them or he just decided to act dumb all these years? Well that I have no idea of.My husband dismissed the meeting and we went back home. We began to pack. I packed all our fancy clothes and good footwear. Well, not all I made a lot of money! From my business which made me one of the richest women in the country.“Would we go by road or by air?!.” Ramon asked.“By road, we can’t afford to get tracked!.” I said.Well, he wasn’t so smart but at least it was better than before. He finally spoke his mind and it made sense, maybe I should let him speak out more often than hiding him and keeping him quiet.I stared at him as he packed our bags. I went through our documents and packed them in my bag.“We will leave tomorrow morning by 4 am!.” I told him and he nodded at me.I had a short nap. I woke up at exactly 3:55 am and got ready. To my greatest surprise, he was already awake, dressed and ready to leave.
“Sir please don’t do this to us!!, we have nothing else!!, please!.” Malica cried.She fell to her knees as she pleaded with tears running down her cheek. It was as though her words didn’t affect the man.He looked up at her and then back down at his phone.“Beautiful!..” he murmured.Malica raised her face from the ground to see the man she was begging for was glued to his phone.“Sir I will get you the girl you are admiring if only you give me back my girls!.” Malica saw this as an opportunity to get what she wanted.“If you can bring her to me I will give you all that I have taken from you! but if you fail to bring her back! I will take you and your family, including the girls I have already taken!.” The man replied.“I wouldn’t fail you, sir!.” Malica said with fear in her heart. She didn’t know how she was going to carry out such a mission.“You have a week!.” Malica looked up at him with shock, a week for such a tax.“What does she look like?!.” Malica asked.“This!.” He said a
“Alora honey!.” Zemia whispered, his hands falling on her shoulders gently.Alora jumped in fear. She held her chest and shook her head. “Yea?!.” She replied with a weak voice.“Maybe we should leave the gift unwrapping!.” Zemia suggested he squatted down beside her. He held her close. Alora buried her face in the croke of Zemias neck.“I loved her!!. I never wanted her to get hurt!!, I was willing to hurt myself as long as she was happy!!.” Alora cried. Tears came running down her cheek like a waterfall. Zemia sat beside her and pulled her, he moved her fast as though she was an infant with no weight, he sat her on his lap and he spoke words of encouragement he was better than Aiden in this aspect and probably many others.Alora held on tight to Zemia. She was shivering for fear, the last memories of her mother made tears run down her cheek. Zemia was in a state of panic. Alora looked up at his worried face, she had once seen such an expression. Alora dried her tears.“I am lucky
Alora looked up at him and then smiled. “My mom used to buy me presents and hide them around the house for me to find and when I did I would gather them on her bed and she would watch me open them one after the other!.” Alora explained with sad eyes.Zemia sat beside her and wiped the tears from her eyes before they could drop. “Why don’t we do everything you and your mom did together?!, we could make it a tradition?!.” Alora looked up at him, she smiled and hugged him tight. “Thank you!.” Alora said and tears followed.“Please don’t cry!.” Zemia said. He tapped Alora back gently trying to calm her down. “Tell me what things you and your mum did when you were younger?!.” Zemia asked.Alora sniffed and she cleaned her dripping nose and her eyes. After listing everything Alora looked up at Zemia to see a smile on his face, she felt awkward about the fact she was putting all her burden on him.“That is a long list of activities !.” Zemia said.Alora inhaled and exhaled.“We better get s
I laid my head on Zemia’s shoulders all through the drive.“Zemia?!.” I called.“Yes, dear?!.” He replied.“Before I bound our souls, didn't you have someone you were meant to get married to ?!.” I asked out of curiosity, I couldn’t hold my curious mind I had to ask.“No! I had no one! my brothers were assigned to females of our species except for me!.” He replied and then I felt him pull me closer.“Why weren’t you assigned?!.” I asked.“Because they believed I was going to become the king and my mother stood against me being assigned to a woman!.” He replied. “Please let’s not talk about my family! Tell me what do you want ?!.” He said“I want my apartment!.” I replied with hope in my eyes. I hoped this wasn’t much to ask.“Why?. you don’t like staying with me?!.” He asked.“I do! I just want privacy!.” I replied. Well with a girl like me in a house with maybe a hundred staff I guess it was just too much. I wanted something simple and less fancy.“You can always tell me if you’re u
What the hell is he doing here??. Is he one of them? Or did he plan all of this?Aiden walked closer and then got on one of his knees.“Alora Thomas!.” He said and pulled out a box. What is he doing?!.“ I am sorry don’t leave me! I want you here with me! I knew my actions hurt you but I did it all to help you !.” He was going smoothly until the last few words made me boil. I tried to control myself but the pain I felt in my head made things hard for me.“Excuse me!.” I said and then got off the chair I sat in.After asking for directions I finally found the lady's restroom. My head was already on fire, I ran into the restroom and Locked the door.I felt my bones snapping, my legs broke and I fell to the ground, I let out a scream. I pulled my hair and hit myself on the walls. I heard someone inside one of the compartments. I growled when I tried to speak. “Ahh!!. Monster!!.” The woman yelled till she fainted.She wasn’t wrong! I am a monster, I got up to the sink to see my fur, i
I turned my head to see Zemia standing by the door. My smile broadened.“You look like an angel fell from the sky and into my arms!.” Zemia said.“Aww! Aren’t you two just perfect together!!.” Rose said with a cheerful voice. “This would be perfect on you!.” Zemia said and picked up a gold boot heel.“Has always had great taste Mr Zemia..!” Rose said and licked her lips.I looked at her, was she flirting with Zemia?? right in front of me! What the hell is wrong with her?“Babe…!” I said.Zemia looked at me and his eyes were full of joy! Was he happy that I called him ‘Babe?’ Or was it the fact he was into Rose? What the hell is going on? I felt somewhat angry but I just walked out on both of them, I guess I needed space.“Alora?!. Babe!.” Zemia called as I walked passed both of them in anger.^^^Zemia was beyond shocked when he saw the anger that flashed in Alora’s eyes, her eyes changed from gold to red before they turned back to gold. From the looks of it, Rose didn’t notice her
If this is a dream I need to wake up fast. “Alora honey. I want to but I can’t!.” I replied and I saw a disappointed look on her face.I cupped her face in my palm. “You’re too young for this!.” I told her and then kissed her forehead.She sat up and stared at me blankly. “I am nineteen!.” She finally said.“I know that! I doubt you’re ready!.” I replied.I was still laying in bed, Alora exhaled and inhaled. She kept calm.“Your beast is beautiful!.” I broke the silence.Alora looked up at me, and she smiled. “Thanks!.” She said,I knew she felt bad that I rejected her offer of me marking her but I wanted her to know exactly what she was getting herself into, I didn’t want her to rush things and then regret it later.My phone beeped, I checked who it was from. It was a reminder. “Babe you have a meeting with Fredricks company!.” “Oh, the human peacock!.” Alora replied and got off the bed.“What?!.” I exclaimed and laughter followed, she wasn’t wrong he dressed with off colours with t
