I ran to the VIP section to get my phone and small purse. There was no sign of Chelsea in where I left her but I want to believe she has probably left.Retrieving my purse on the table, I walked towards the entrance of the Clubhouse as far as my leg could take me. The loud music didn't stop blaring hard against my ears with every step I took. I want to believe, Liam wouldn't come after me. He can just spend the night here and pretend as if he didn't see me.I will also do the same. When I got outside the clubhouse, my head buzzed, almost spinning and I had to place my hand on the wall for support.Taking a deep breath in, I walked towards the roadside to take a taxi. The alcohol I mistakenly took had intoxicated me but I need to get home as soon as possible. I don't want to hurt my baby. However, it feels as if I already spent more than four hours inside the club and there was no sign of any taxi coming my way.Frustrated, I sucked the inside of my cheek before a car suddenly pulled
For a moment I thought Liam was kidding but this man was not fucking joking. Infact, Liam meant every word he said. His hand pulled the dress down from my collarbone and I jumped in fright, creating more space between us.”Are you fucking serious right now? I don't want you touching me" I yelled as tears streamed down my cheeks. I have vowed not to be weak in front of Liam or anyone again but then my emotions took the better of me as tears trickled down my cheeks. Maybe I expected Liam to suddenly back away, giving me the privacy I want but Liam didn't. The truth is I was scared and I was happy when I saw him but a part of me was annoyed to see Liam among his friends while strippr dancing among them. I was actually Infuriated but there was nothing I could do.Liam only walked towards me, closing the distance between us and I swallowed the lump at the back of my throat.Liam lifted me up the floor in a bridal style whileI kept on hitting his chest.“Let me go!"“Get your hands off
After dropping the call I had with Chelsea, I made my way outside after having my bath. I was already dressed up, waiting for Thierry to approach me when I noticed Theirry was not in sight.There was no sign of him standing outside with the guards, which made my brows furrow until I heard the echoing footsteps behind me.”Where is Thierry?" I asked Liam who was dressed in a gray suit with his raven black hair falling on his forehead.“I told you he would be sacked if he failed to drive you to wherever you go. It was a promise you made to me to be accountable for his actions," Liam explained in his deep voice as he closed the distance between us.My lips parted as air escaped my lungs because Liam was fucking right about what he said. I promised to let Thierry take me everywhere, but I broke that promise first.“If you want to punish anyone, then punish me. He did nothing wrong," I said; my voice was a little bit calm, but internally, I knew Liam wouldn't let this go just like that.Li
Thierry drove the car out of the mansion and my gaze flickered between the road side and my phone. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to be pissed right now or laugh because Liam's behavior was uncalled for. It was very hard for me to believe I actually fell for Liam's trick which prompted me to ask Thierry a important question.“Thierry, how did you know Liam?” I asked while browsing through my phone.Thierry looked at me through the rear mirror and our eyes made contact. I was actually expecting him to look at it because this is the first time I will ever ask Thierry a question relating to his and Liam's relationship.“Mr. Liam saved me from a group of loan shark thugs that threaten to sell part of my body if I refuse to pay my father's debt” Theirry said in a detached tone and I knew there was more to his story.“I met Mr. Liam one day when I was getting beaten up by the roadside. He took care of the men like a hero and hired me as his guard” Thierry concluded and I couldn't help but
“One more thing," Laura added and stopped. I raised my eyebrows at her, waiting to hear whatever she was going to spit out of that filthy mouth.“Are you still going to divorce him?" Laura asked and I connected the dots. She is talking about Liam and me. Is she that happy with the news with the hope that Aysel will finally get to be by Liam's side?“We both know you are not worthy of Liam and I am glad you decided to leave him," Laura added and adjusted the bag in her hand. Laura's face was still young and pretty as always. It makes me wonder if she is ever getting old because of her young features.Despite her beauty, she is just ugly inside and her character is rotten.“Liam can finally go back to Aysel, and I believe Aysel will produce good children compared to your barren self," Laura snickered with a smirk on her face as she waved her hand in the air.“Mum!" Aysel chipped in like a good child. ”I am not even pregnant for him yet," She whined, pouting her cheeks as she held on
I don't know how I am going to go to the hospital when Theirry is still in the car.“Is there anything we can do about Thierry?" Chelsea asked as if reading my mind.“I will just tell him I need to go somewhere with you and we will be back in a few minutes," I said and Chelsea agreed to go with my plan.When we got outside, I walked straight to Chelsea's car. Knocking on the door, Thierry rolled down the glass window and bowed his head before raising it.“I need to go somewhere with Chelsea and we will be back in thirty minutes," I said, but Thierry tensed up in the seat. “I mean it. 30 minutes," I added.“Alright, ma'am," he replied.“I will take my car," Chelsea said and I followed her.After leaving Chelsea Boutique with her car, we drove straight to the hospital. Ezekiel, Chelsea's brother, already told me to do some tests, which I did.I and Chelsea sat on the chair in his office when he came in a few minutes later.“Hope I didn't delay you much?" Ezekiel asked and I and Chelsea
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
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
