When I walked closer to the entrance, I wasn't expecting Liam to have company but the moment I pulled the door open, Liam was actually on call with someone.Silly me! I thought he was with Aysel or maybe Aysel already found her way home. I shut the door and walked past Liam who stood beside the window.“Where are you going, Emily?" Liam asked as he dropped the phone to his side. He was already done with the call. Liam walked towards me and stood beside the couch in the living room.“Where does it seem like I am going? To my room, of course," I retorted in a cold tone and gripped the bag in my tight.“I told you about the event we need to attend. You should get ready," Liam said, and I blinked my eyes at him with my eyebrows raised.”Oh, sure," I murmured before looking at him. “But you tricked me into believing that Thierry will get sacked," I said more as a statement than a question.Liam smiled as he glided his hand through the material of the couch in slow motion. ”I didn't actua
Chelsea texted me that she was already on her way while Liam only concentrated on driving. I checked the site where my book was; I was surprised to see I already have a lot of readers.A smile spread across my lips as I read their comments. It was just a form of distraction to me because I didn't know how Aysel convinced Liam.The car stopped at the parking lot, and I got down with Liam. As usual, it was already bustling with a lot of people.”Try not to let them get suspicious, Mr. Nolan," I said with gritted teeth, and I saw Liam almost chuckling.Maybe it ear just my eyes fooling me after all. Liam held out his arms and I tugged on his clothes. Liam smiled at me and I did the same, returning the smile.We both walked closer to the entrance and then there were low murmurs occurring among the guests who came to congratulate Laura.“Isn't she beautiful?"I heard someone said as I walked inside the hall alongside Liam.“That is Mr. Liam's wife." A feminine voice spoke as we entered the
“You didn't tell me I need one," Chelsea responded and tucked some strands of her hair behind her ear. “And just so you know, my boyfriend will be coming back tomorrow. So you can imagine the feeling" Chelsea added and looked at my face.I chuckled slightly and rolled my eyes at her. ”I guess I will be seeing him again," I replied calmly.”In your dreams Emily. I'm going to tie him up tomorrow. He is not going anywhere and..." Chelsea stopped and looked around as if she was inspecting if someone was eavesdropping on our conversation.“I miss Sex, Emily," Chelsea whispered, and my cheeks flushed red with embarrassment.“Fuck Emily. You are so red. Stop acting like an innocent girl," Chelsea reprimanded, and I wish I could stop too, but Chelsea is just too blunt with her replies.“I will not listen to any of your conversations anymore," I said and averted my gaze to the stage.Aysel looked exactly like Laura's daughter as she stood on the stage. She has always been confident and wouldn'
“Hi, Vincent. It's nice to see you here," I said with a smile spread across my lips. Vincent walked closer to me and pulled me in for a friendly hug. Without looking over his shoulder, I knew Liam must be looking at my way now.Vincent looked at Diana and Chelsea and I was glad he didn't know either of them. For a while, I thought Diana was Vincent's girlfriend. At least, no one is going to sabotage my plan now.“This is Chelsea and Diana," I said, looking at Vincent. He bowed his head slightly and Chelsea did the same. “This is Vincent, a friend of mine," I said, introducing Vincent to Diana and Chelsea.Diana was the one who quickly walked up to Vincent. “Hi, handsome. It's nice to see you here," Diana said in a calm tone, which made Chelsea roll her eyes.Of course, Diana wouldn't hesitate to go after any man who seems to be financially okay and handsome. This is why Diana never dated a guy for two months.Vincent smiled at her and turned to face me. “I didn't know it was Laura's
Liam walked towards me like a predator for a while. It felt as if I was in the lion's den, and I doubted if I would be able to escape this feral beast.There was no one in the restroom. Perhaps the women already knew something like this would be happening.Maybe this is the spot where couples will quickly do a quickie to ease tension because I can't fucking explain how Liam got here.“You have gone crazy, Emily," Liam said with a playful grin, and I staggered backwards while he continued walking towards me.Why must it be a restroom every time? Why can't he just corner me outside? But Liam loves his privacy.“You only asked me a question and I only replied." I reprimanded and my back hit the wall at the same time.Fuck!Now there is no fucking escape. Liam stood in front of me, and I glared at him coldly, but I was fucking wrong.What did I say about not looking at Liam? What did I say about Liam Nolan being an attractive man? Liam pressed his face towards me and I stopped breathing
LIAM'S POVThe ride home wasn't fun, but I was actually planning to tease Emily inside the car. To my astonishment, Emily slept inside the car like a baby with no care about the world.I didn't wake her up despite feeling the urge, too, because of her beautiful face up close.“I think I might have let you get too close to me, Emily," I muttered, knowing fully well that she couldn't see me.I pulled out my phone and dialled a number on my call log.“Hello Liam, it's a pleasure to hear your voice." The voice boomed through the speaker of my phone.However, I didn't have time to beat around the bush. “I need you to find every fucking piece of information about Slyveter and get back to me," I said and there was silence from the other end.“Don't fucking tell me you have no information, Rylan. You know I am still pissed because of what happened at the club.”“C'mon Liam. You know I took care of the guys. And believe me when I said I gave them just what they deserved. No one will find out,"
LIAM'S POVWhen I walked back to my room. I took off my suit and took a quick shower. Thinking about what happened today, a bitter smile graced my lips as I hit the glass wall with my fist.Emotions lately have been disturbed and it seems in one way or another, Emily is getting into my skin. As if my subconscious wouldn't agree with me, I was already hard again. At this rate, I knew masturbating wouldn't work. I left the bathroom with a towel wrapped around my body. I put a call through to Rylan, and he picked it up on the second ring.“Buddy, I am on it. It's not even up to 20 minutes yet," Rylan said, his voice etched with anger, but he managed to hide it.“I need a girl. I will be coming to the club," I said, raking my hand through my hair.“Then come," Rylan said and quickly dropped the call.I pulled out a black shirt and wore it. I wore long pants and made my way to the mirror. Looking at my reflection in the mirror, I brushed my hair and put on the wristwatch around my wrist.
Emily's POVAfter taking my bath in the morning, I wore a simple dress and wrote two chapters for my comic book. I believed Liam would have already left for work and I would be the only one at home.Vincent messaged me this morning and we agreed to meet later in the afternoon. Left with no other thing, I decided to cook in the kitchen.“Ma'am, what do you help you with?" Annie asked as she stood beside me. “You don't have to bother yourself. I want to cook for the house today," I said, and Annie smiled at me.“We will leave you to it, ma'am, but if you need our help, don't hesitate to call us," Annie said and left the kitchen.I think this is the first time I will be cooking in the mansion. Even in my past life, I wasn't allowed to cook. I boiled the rice and placed another pot on the stove.After adding the necessary ingredients, I will need to cook the soup. I left the kitchen when I heard my phone ringing. It was Chelsea calling me. I picked up the call and pressed it to my ear.
I brought out my phone and decided to text Chelsea instead. After sending the message, I took my phone back inside my purse. Liam and I didn't talk until we got to the destination. Thierry got down first and unlocked the door for me to step out. I was surprised by his kind gesture. I didn't even realise when I said Thank you.Liam looked at me as he adjusted his shirt. He walked inside the restaurant while I followed him closely. Few people were eating but compared to Los Angeles, I doubt people will recognise Liam just like that.We both sat down on the same chair while the waitress told us to order. We ordered food and ate in silence.”I will pay the bills," Thierry said and followed the waitress. When we were done we all left the restaurant and moved to the venue where the meeting will be held.Thierry drove the car inside and parked it at the front of the building. The moment we got down, different cameras were positioned in front of us and we took one or two pictures. While Lia
“I have decided to take her in but the Elders need to have a meeting with me. If she is someone they will choose" Lycan King Zayn and my heart only beat wildly against my rib cage. It felt as if ice water was poured on me. He is going to take in another woman in place of me. His Beta reply came almost immediately. ”They have always wanted you to take in a woman from a powerful family. This is their long-awaited wish, my king." It's happening. This is why he refused the bond. I am just a slave to him.”You will have to meet me here when it's 10 am sharp. Tell the princess to come to my chamber." LYCAN King Zayn said.”Yes, my king. And I needed to report what I saw yesterday. The guards who tried to rape Davina are in the dungeon. What should I do with them?" The Beta asked but a frown settled on my face. If they are talking about me, are the guards the Beta was referring to the two guards I saw yesterday?”I should come down myself. You can leave," The Lycan King said without givi
I smiled when I found myself running wild in the field of flowers while Xavier continued to laugh while a man chased him. I couldn't picture his face, which made me assume this was a dream. A dream I never wish to wake up from.However, I felt something move beside me. At first, I thought I was still in the dreamland, but then something hard poked my thigh, and my eyes fluttered open. I was greeted by the sunlight that shone through the glass wall. Inhaling the smell of mint into my nostrils, my eyes became wide open when I realized what was going on. I looked beside me and saw Liam's face snuggled inside my neck like a fucking parasite as if he was going to suck me dry.How did we end up in this compromising position? His eyes fluttered open, and I lost my cool but not my confidence. He was surprised to find himself beside me.”Morning, Emily" Liam said, his morning voice deep and husky, which made me realize I rarely get to listen to Liam's morning voice while we were together.He
Liam hid a smile between his lips; he raised the fork and chewed the meat on it slowly. I can't believe Liam is smiling right now. Even if it's just for a short moment, I saw it.“It was fun to see you all cooped up inside the wardrobe. Was it fun watching us too?” Liam asked, his voice filled with malice.I scoffed, dropping the fork in my hand as I shot a dead glare at Liam. “Why do you think I was looking for you?” I asked Liam with my eyebrows raised at him.“I saw you, and it felt as if you were about to cry,” Liam replied, pushing my buttons.A laugh actually bubbled out of me like music. “In your dreams,” I said and carried the plate with me. I stood up and left Liam's side, not in the mood to listen to him again when I was supposed to be eating.He didn't say anything more when I left his side and sat down on the bed to eat my food. I was done eating but to sleep right now was the problem. Looking at Liam's way, he was still sitting on the couch with a glass of wine in his han
Woah. I can't believe girls can be so blunt like this. Even when I was crushing on Liam in the past, I never openly confess my feelings. But girls these days are now bold and Georgia is no exception. She never hesitated to go after what she wanted. Georgia let the thin strap of the dress fall off her shoulders, showing off her cleavages. Her smouldering eyes watched Liam with intrigue. The girl is a great seductress but I doubt Liam will be interested when all he wanted was Aysel all these while. I scoffed inside the closet, wondering why I even was here in the first place. “Why are you looking at me that way Liam?" She asked, but I couldn't see Liam's expression because his back was actually facing me. Reading Georgia's expression is actually fun. She will give up sooner or later but she wasn't hurt yet. ”I told you I miss you. Won't you even ask me how I got to know you are here?" She asked with her forefinger in between her lips. She must have followed Liam. The girl is inde

The hotel staff served the food inside the plate and left. Liam sat on the couch and made himself comfortable. He didn't bother to call me as he picked up a fork and a spoon. He wasn't looking at me as if he was going to rip the clothes off my body now.Rubbing my palms together, I sat on the small space left beside Liam. At least, he wouldn't dare to touch me since I am hungry right now.I dug in the spoon, ready to eat when but the moment the fork touched the food, the doorbell suddenly rang.I froze, wondering who could be at the door this late at night since the hotel staff already left. Liam stood up, a look of curiosity on his face, and walked over to the intercom. He pressed a button, and a voice came through the speaker."Hello?" the voice said and Liam's eyes flicked to me, and then back to the intercom. "Georgia," he said, his voice low and even. "What are you doing here?"I felt a surge of panic as I heard Georgia's name. What was she doing here? And why was Liam letting h
When I walked back to the suite, Liam was already dressed up in a pair of black pants while he tucked his hand inside the pocket of his pants. I forgot to mention that the hotel suite has a glass wall at one part in which you can look outside the world down from above.Without making a noise, I tiptoed to where my clothes were and quickly brought out the pyjamas I brought with me. My hands roamed inside the suitcase but there was no sign of the pyjamas. I grind my teeth together. Liam was still looking outside the glass wall. He was holding a glass filled with wine in his hand.He wouldn't have noticed me right?The pyjamas should be lying inside the suitcase because I made sure I brought it with me just because I have a feeling that a situation like this might occur in which I will be forced to share a room with Liam.Still, I couldn't find it.“Are you looking for this?" I heard Liam ask and my heart almost jumped out of my chest in shock. I didn't even hear the sound of his foots
"Why are you doing this, Liam?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.Liam's eyes narrowed, and he took a step closer to me. "What do you mean?" he asked, his voice low and husky as he tilted his head and his back bent to match my height.I swallowed hard, trying to find the words. "Why are you keeping me here? What do you want from me? I told you I want to take my bath," I said, bombarding him with questions while his eyes mirrored something I didn't understand.Liam's eyes seemed to bore into mine, and I could see the conflict raging within him. For a moment, I thought I saw a glimmer of the man I used to know, the man I loved before the sudden realization hit me. He was never mine, to begin with.Casting all my stupid emotions aside, I took in a deep breath, and this time, I decided to push Liam away by his chest, but instead, his expression hardened, and he reached out to grab my arm.I couldn't duck away because I knew my back would only hit the bed. I allow him to grab me. "H
