"Good day, sir." Ciara said as she sat down beside the man she was sent to deliver goods too.
"You are such a pretty lady, you know." The man said.
"A night won't hurt, would it?" He asked while she fought so hard not to roll her eyes at him. He is just some petty human she could kill him within the blink of an eye.
She faked a smile.
"I was told to only deliver these goods to you and not to do anything else." She said and was about to stand up when he pulled her and she landed on his laps. She gasped.
She could feel his bulge under the pair of trousers he wore.
"You can feel it, can't you?" He said with a smirk. She smiled back.
You are so dead!!!
Then her phone started ringing,
"Excuse me." She said and took her face away. She stood up and went over to a corner. She saw a man in veil and he handed something over to her. She looked at the man's retreating back. She sighed and went over to meet her customer.
"Real
....THREE MONTHS LATER....."Damien, how are you doing?" Hudson asked as soon as he entered the office. No reply.Hudson sighed and took a seat next to Damien."I have been to so many packs and I still haven't found her yet, do you how painful that is? And you expect me to be fine." Damien said looking at the map on the desk before him."Damien, you need to calm down and think straight." Hudson said."Do you... Do you still feel her?" Hudson said making sure he picked the right choice of words."I don't know." Was all Damien said.He sighed."I will be going to New York, i have to meet Alpha Lucian concerning the project." Damien said."Ohh... Okay." Hudson said."When are you going?" He asked."In a week' time." Damien said picking up different files."Don't over work yourself." Hudson said before leaving knowing fully well that Damien would not listen to him.Damien had another reason to go
The cab stopped at her destination and she hopped out of it after giving him his money.She stood and looked at the restaurant before her. She inhaled and exhaled then she walked in.Picking her phone, she dialed his number."Hello." She said."I'm here already." She said."Ohh, okay." He said."I will send someone over to you right now." He said and cut off the call.She waited for a little while then she sighted a lady coming towards her."You must be the person i was told to bring, right?" The lady asked.All Ciara did was nod."Follow me." The lady said and Ciara started going with her.The lady opened a door and it led to another part of the restaurant. Ciara was surprised but she hid it well."She is here, sir." The lady alerted the man.The man turned and gave Ciara a little smile which she did not return.The man moved over to his seat and urged her to take a sit."Have y
"Can i kiss you?" He asked. She was taken aback.No way! Tavia exclaimed.Assuming her silence as yes, he leaned over to kiss her , then suddenly she came out of her reverie. She curved him and pushed him slightly."Sorry, that should not have happened." Leo said."I did not know what came over me, I'm... I'm really sorry." He apologized again."It is okay, no need to be paranoid." She said."Goodnight." She said and went into her apartment.She sat down on the bed and touched her lips. She almost kissed another man apart from her mate.Why did she restrain?Not like Damien did."You can't judge him like that yet, go over to his place and check it out your self." Tavia advised.No, she can't.What if it is true?What if he has already moved on?She does not want to deal with an heartbreak.No, she doesn't.She stood up and headed towards the bathroom.~•~•~•~•
**Next morning**"Good morning, Alpha Damien." He heard a feminine voice call out from the outside.He opened his eyes and gazed at the ceiling since he sleeping"Who is there?" He asked."Alpha Lucian asked me to tell you to come downstairs for breakfast." The same feminine voice said."Okay, I will be there in few minutes." He replied.He closed his eyes for some time. Then he stood up sluggishly and headed towards the bathroom.He looked at himself in the mirror. He now looked older than his age. He had a rough stubble on his face.He brushed his teeth and did the usual.Stepping out of the bathroom, he was now clad in a blue t-shirt and a gray pair of trousers.He went downstairs to see Alpha Lucian and his lovely family. He had always wanted a family like this where they will be having as much as Alpha Lucian is having.He envisioned himself and Ciara with his kids. He smiled at the thought but then the smile was caug
Knock! Knock! Knock!"Who's there?" Ciara's sleepy voice called out."Receptionist ma'am." The feminine voice replied."Come in," Ciara said and sat up gently."Good morning, ma'am." The receptionist greeted as she entered. Ciara nodded in reply."I was told to give you this." The receptionist said handing over a package to her.Ciara collected it and opened it.She looked into it and saw her passport and ticket for her flight back to Florida."Okay, thanks." She said and the receptionist exited the room.She stood up and went towards the bathroom.She looked at her self in the mirror.She already changed. Like she could see and feel it.***"The person i am looking for is not part of any of them." Damien said to Lucian, dropping the file he was holding."Do you have any other file?" He asked tiredly.He had stayed up all night to go through the files. He will do everyt
"Hey, man." Hudson called out immediately he sighted Damien as he came out of the airport.Damien just nodded at him."Any improvement yet?" He asked."No, not really." He replied."Ohh.. Okay." Hudson said."What is the urgent matter you called me for?" Damien asked."Actually, i was told that one of our companies was expecting a business tycoon, Demetrius Negal, and he had asked of the owner of the company." Hudson said."Really?" He said.But he noticed Hudson was trying to prevent himself from smiling."Okay, i will go get ready and we will head out." He replied and rushed in."You are back home." He heard a feminine voice say.He turned and looked at Nicole."Yes, i am." Damien said softly."You did not tell me you were traveling." She said coming closer to him."I was in a hurry." He said.The mate bond was affecting him in a way that he does not understand. He
49 Knock! Knock! Knock! "Coming." Ciara shouted from the kitchen. She opened the door to see Leo. "Leo!" She said. He smiled. "What are you doing here?" She asked. He furrowed his eye brows in confusion. "Ohh... Come in." She said. He entered her apartment. "Nice place." He said as he took a seat on her couch. "Don't you feel something is wrong with Leo?" Tavia asked Ciara. "And what is that?" She asked. "I don't know, just feel weird about it tho." Tavia said and pulled up the mental block. "When i came home, you were not home." Ciara said as she took a seat beside him. "Yeah.. Had some business to do." He replied. "So how was the work you went to do?" He asked changing the topic. "Yeah... It went well." She replied not really wanting to answered. "What should i get you?" She asked. "Water will do." He replied.
"Hello." Melissa's voice came through the phone."Hi." Nicole replied."How are you doing?" She asked."I'm cool." Nicole replied."So how's Damien?, is he coming up?" Melissa asked."Nope.""Huh, what of the spell i gave you to use?" She asked."I had used it but Hudson came in to ruin the moment." Nicole said almost crying."I tried everything i could but it is like the mate bond is not affecting them." She said."Are you sure that the potion you gave me for the mate bond is a real one?" Nicole asked."What are you saying?" Melissa asked."Like i was saying that at least he should feel some sort of connection with me." Nicole said."He is fighting it." Melissa said."Do you know what pains the most?" Nicole asked."Anytime he has sex with other females, I don't feel anything but I smell them on him." Nicole said."I'm tired." She said."My wolf is no longer
~Legend's POV~ I looked at myself in the mirror and smiled in satisfaction. "Things are about to get hot." Gael said and I chuckled. I know he does not like the way I did not tell him anything but I just can't. "Let's get going." I said and we both stepped out of the room. As we walked the corridors of the palace, the maids and guards bowed in greetings. I released a deep breath and wore a stern face. Just as we got to the entrance of the throne room that announcer was about to alert them of my presence buy I raised my hand to shun him. "The Alpha Prince..." He swallowed the rest of the word as I stepped into the room. Everyone turned their heads to towards me. And I stood all and mighty in the middle of the throne hall. My father and I shared this 'make sure what you want to say does not lead to your dethronement' kind of look and I almost snickered at him. "Rest, father." I said through the mind link and he seemed to be taken aback. I looked around to take a good look at th
~Leticia's POV~I stared at him as he zoomed off. Honestly, I was too dumbfounded to talk. Like he literally stakes his claim and I could not do anything. Okay, I agree. I am denying the bond. That is because I don't want to get all too attached to him. Like I notice the way Damien and Ciara always behave. Not to talk of how Leo and Rose do.Nah! I can't do that."So you know him?" Brian's voice came from behind me.Gosh, I have forgotten that he was even here. I turned to him and smiled."I should be the one asking you that question?" I said to him with a glare. He gulped down and looked away."So you were a wolf, like seriously? Wait, am I also your mate?" I asked him to be sure I am not between two guys."No, you are not." He said and my mind calmed down a bit. But wait?"Why?-""I lost my wolf already." He said and my eyebrows furrowed in pity."Hey, don't give me that look of pity. I am only with you because I love you but now that I found that that you are Legend's mate. I gue
~Legend's POV~"Hey, Legend. You can't keep doing this to yourself." Gael's voice said from behind the door. I hissed out and gulped down another bottle of alcohol. It's been a week since my father gave me that stupid options that left me dumbfounded. I could not even think of an escape answer for him. All I did was watch my mate leave from the window of my room. I sniffed in and took another sip. I had locked myself in and refused to attend the court meetings but one thing my dad does not know is that I was drinking. I belched and took another sip. I have missed her so much to the extent that I don't even think I can ever see her again. But why will dad put my life at jeopardy all because of his own mate?!I shook my head and tried to stand up but I slumped back on the floor. I winced slightly and checked my arm. Her bite mark was still there. The place she had bit me one week ago. I would say her teeth is quite sharp to the extent that they left a mark. I tried to get up again but
~Legend's POV~I walked through the corridors as I quietly anticipate her to be there. At least."She does not have a wolf." Ryder's voice said in my head and I halt to a stop."What did you say?" I asked him."I tried trying to connect with her but.. ask what she is." He said and went to rest back. That's how he does. He leaves me to do all the work while he tells me bit by bit, putting me on suspense. I shook my head and walked into my chambers. I opened the lock and went in."Mate!" I called out."Mate!" She mimicked me and I chuckled low key."Tell me why you are being like this towards me?" I asked her."Because you must have mistaken me to be your mate. Like let me tell you, I don't have a wolf and besides I am a witch." She said and just like that I jerked back immediately.Impossible!What kind of shit is this?"You are my mate. I can feel it." Was all I could say to assure her."I don't know what to say because I have a fiance who I love so much and I am not going to give it
~Leticia's POV~I don't understand why my brother insisted on my coming here. I scoffed as I watched them give the honorary speech about the said Alpha king who sat all mighty on his throne and had this forced smile on his face. I need to get out of here.I looked around but my brother was nowhere to be found. I shrugged and walked out from the crowd. I looked around and my legs took me towards the garden. As I was looking around and I bumped into something or rather someone. "Ouch!" I winced as I held my forehead.I looked up at the person who stood before. He has his eyes glued on me like I was some support to his life. "Mate!" He whispered and my eyes went wide open."You say?!" I gasped in shock and moved back a bit to take a proper look at him."You are my mate?" He said more like asking."I don't know what you are talking about and if you may excuse me, I am here to get fresh air and you seem to be blocking it." I said to him and turned away from him. Before I could take anoth
Torn between his duty and heart, Legend Brendon has reached the junction at which he has to tread carefully or else he would lose everything that made him the Alpha King. When he meets his mate, Leticia, she was everything he did not expect her to be. A witch. He must make sure she does not get killed and fight against the roaming shadows that were threatening to destroy his kingdom.• • • Chapter one Chapter One~Legend's POV~"So tell me why you are not excited about your father's birthday?" Gael, my best friend and Beta's son, said and I exhaled deeply."It is not that I am not excited about it. Heck, I am so happy that he is aging fast and I will become the Alpha King but my wolf has been feeling jittery which is making me look stressed than usual." I explained to him and pinched the bridge of my nose. But instead this fool took it as a joke and grinned like a dummy. I snickered at him in annoyance and almost rolled my eyes at him.I can't. As per my father's word, I am the Alph
**A Month Later**"So tell me why I should follow you to the Alpha king's birthday?" Leticia asked for the umpteenth time as she saw across the table with Leo."Because I said you are going with me." He said with his hands on my lap. She rolled her eyes and shrugged."You're going?" He asked."Not like I have a choice." She groaned and I chuckled low-key.Ever since we caught the scoundrel, everything was at peace. I even went to see my parents, well foster parents. They asked for my forgiveness and I just forgave them. Don't want them to be sulking up to me. After that, we also and when I say 'we', I meant Leo and I. We went to see Levi. He had also become the Alpha of his pack and he said that he searched for me all over the place when I went missing and apologized for his inconsistence. I introduced Leo to him as my mate and everything went fine. So tomorrow was the Alpha king's birthday and we were all invited. Well, mostly the Alphas and Lunas."Tomorrow." He said and dragged me
************Rose's POV************So right now, we are in front of the entire pack who has been unable to shift. It was early in the morning. Samantha was still tied down with that spell bound rope."A lot of you think your Luna was the one who caused you to be unable to shift. Well, guess what. It was one of you." My mother yelled."I know you all must be thinking of who I am. I am your Luna's mother and I will not stand and watch you all paint her bad when she is not." She said and they looked at her with awe."Well, I guess you all must know that this lady here is a witch and the one who assisted the person to stop you all from shifting." She continued. My mother kicked her to start talking."The one who came to me for help was none other than Jacksonville." She said."He told me about the fact that he was not satisfied with the new Alpha and that he was the one who supposed to be in the position that he was and we came to an agreement." She explained."Bring Jackson out here."
************Rose's POV************"So after putting such a bold and dramatic front before Leo, you are here sulking?" My mother asked me as she placed the cup of water before me. I grunted and sipped a little."Mom, you don't understand. Ever since I came back, I don't understand a thing at all. Where I was taken to? What they did to me? How I was handled? I know nothing at all. And now the pack is struck with some stupid disease or what should it be called?" I said with a look of sadness."Whosever might have taken you cleared your memory and I will love you to relax so that I make a portion and try to remember some spells to track the witch." She said and went into the room. Well, they now stay in the cave, not actually a cave, but it was built like one. And the environment is serene enough and it is quite conducive especially for them since they wanted to be away from other people."Rose," Leo's voice said in my head, making me jerk."Leo?" I asked."How are you?" He asked and I
