"Look, Mi amor, I don't know what goes on in that crazy head of yours but what I do know is that we can both help each other," Nikolai said, running a hand across my cheek. "How?" I breathed. "Marry me." ****** After the death of her mother, Sarah DeVille has been encountering one problem after the other.

I just- I was just worried about my cases and presentation. Forget it," I said, turning around, hurrying to leave his side. I knew what L could do and if he knew what Nikolai and I did in the bedroom then I was sure he would know about this conversation. I rather not have it and keep Nikolai safe. "I could convince management to stretch the deadline," Nikolai offered, following behind me. I hastened up my pace as I shook my head. "No need. Thank you. I'll go work on them now," I said. "Stop," Nikolai ordered. For a moment, my legs turned to stone and I waited but I quickly recovered remembering that I had to keep my distance. I continued walking away and was about to enter our room when i was suddenly spun around and my back was pinned to the wall beside our room door. I gulped noticeably. "Did or did I not say to stop, Sarah
My day was great. Infact, my whole first week was perfect. I had enough time to focus on my work. L hadn't called in a week and there had been no more threats on either I or Nikolai's life. In all, I was happy. My work life was great, my sex life was great.My favorite part of workdays were when I would sneak into Nikolai's office and help him relieve the stress of the day. So far, everything was good. Today was Saturday and I was sleeping in. I would begin working on my personal case later tonight. That way I had an excuse to get away from Nikolai's bed. I shuddered. My core was sore from all the tumbling in bed we'd been doing lately. I didn't want Nikolai to find out else his ego would enlarge so much I'd have to move out!"So how have you been?" I asked Amelia as I sat up on the couch. It was currently 12pm. Amelia had come back home about 30 minutes ago and she'd be staying till Monday morning when she'd have to leave."Things have been great. I've been doing well in my classes.
I managed to finish my introduction although rushed and not as smoothly as I imagined it. All thanks to Nikolai. When I went back to my position, I felt the vibrations stop and I grit my teeth. Nikolai wasn't looking at me, he was looking at the employee now introducing himself. I narrowed my eyes at him and glared at his side profile. I knew he knew I was glaring at him by the ghost of a smirk on his face."Well, I underestimated how much time that would take," He said immediately the employee was done. It was Margaret's turn to introduce herself and as she stepped out, he held up a hand to stop her. She looked confused for a moment then went red when Nikolai shooed her away with his hand like she was an insect. I bit back a laugh."End of introductions, we have more pressing things to attend to," Nikolai said, staring at the paper someone had just dropped in front of him. I peeked up, ready to start taking notes. Nikolai began addressing us. Half the time, I was admiring his work et
Sunlight filtered in through the window and I turned on the bed. I opened my eyes a bit to see that my phone was buzzing and the screen had lit up. I had put my phone on vibration only last night to avoid any distractions."Hello," I said, picking it up. I noticed how hoarse my voice sounded and my throat was sore too."Sarah? Are you just waking up?" Ava's voice said through the phone. I furrowed my brows and drew the phone away from my ear to check the time."Shit!" I yelled, sitting up immediately. "I am going to be so late. Thanks for waking me up," I told her already getting up."Did you check the group chat today?" She asked at the same time Nikolai came into the room."I'll tell one of the drivers to take you to work. I'll be the one picking you up today too," He said immediately he entered. I put my hand on my speaker as I answered him,"Sure. You're going to work now?" I asked, hesitantly. There was a different question on the tip of my tongue."I am. I'll see you in a bit. Al
After saying my farewells to Ava and Josie, I got into the car with Nikolai. I sat at the window side of the car, careful not to get too close to him. He was still in his suit(without the blazer) and his sleeves were rolled up. I could feel the anger rolling off him and how hard he was trying to keep his cool. Knowing Nikolai, we'd continue this game until he reached tipping point and then everyone would suffer for it so I decided to start a conversation."Beautiful day, isn't it?" I asked or so I thought. Nikolai's head snapped in my direction with such speed that I feared he'd broken his neck."Beautiful day?" He snarled. My chest tightened knowing what was coming next. "No, Sarah. It is not a beautiful day. A beautiful day would be you safely at home and me at work but that's not what today was, was it? I told you to stay at home but you didn't listen. What if something had happened to you?""But nothing happened. You should've waited until something did. At least then I'd have had
I wasn't one to give up. So when Nikolai left the room yesterday, I'd hurriedly sorted out my outfit for today. I went for something basic since it was my first day. I wore a plain black skirt and a white long sleeve shirt. I put my hair in a sleek ponytail to make myself look professional then I packed my bag.I doubted Nikolai would make things easy for me but surprisingly, he did. When I woke up, he wasn't in bed, he had already left. And there weren't any extra guards or anything following me around. I felt slightly guilty for breaking his trust but it wasn't my fault he was too stubborn to see reason.I was standing in front of the large Starks and Clarks Skyscraper with my heart palpitating in my chest. My palms felt sweaty and I instinctively rubbed them on my skirt. People came in and out of the building, each looking busy and I couldn't help the small smile on my face."You're new too?" I heard someone ask beside me. I turned my head and saw two girls around my age."I am. I'm
I pushed Nikolai away just as the chandelier fell down with a loud crash. I felt a few shards of glass pierce my forearms but the pain didn't register immediately as I wanted to make sure Nikolai was alright.“Are you fine? Did the glass touch you?" I asked worriedly. Nikolai looked stunned but quickly recovered as a fierce look came on his face. He half my wrists with one hand and used the other to caress my forehead. Then he brought the hand to eye level.“You're the one who's injured yet you care so much about how I'm feeling," Nikolai said, a look I couldn't identify passing his eyes. He examined my hand and thankfully, the cuts weren't too deep. He picked out the shards of glass then beckoned one of his guards over."Keep her safe and take her to the clinic," He said then turned around without saying another word. The guard stepped aside allowing me pass through but I lingered a bit. Where was he going? He climbed the stairs with clenched fists and soon disappeared from my sight
SARAH“Now that you've finally opened her eyes to our world, she needs to be formally introduced to everyone," an older man said, immediately we came out from the room. Nikolai reeked of blood and he had the stains to show for it.In the middle of his quest for blood, Nikolai had sacrificed his shirt thereby leaving him shirtless. That gave me a nice distraction from the brutality he expected me to watch. Nikolai's chest and face was covered in blood.“There's more?" I groaned. Nikolai cracked his knuckles as he let out a low hum."It's not as eye opening as what we just finished. All you have to do is dress up and meet high ranking members of the pack and some associates,” Nikolai said. A woman came over and handed him a wet towel which he used to clean most of the blood on his body. Next, she handed him a dark blue t shirt that he wore immediately.“Oh. That's more my thing, I guess," I replied, nodding. The elderly man in front of us exchanged looks with Nikolai then turned around s
I was flipping through the pages of the file when I heard something resembling footsteps. I didn't want to take chances so I immediately jumped off the stool and picked out a dusty book. I sat on the stool and opened the book acting like I had been reading it. The door flung open and I pretended as if I was engrossed in the book.“What are you doing here and without my permission?" Nikolai's voice boomed throughout the study. I snapped up to look at him, fear looming in my eyes. I stood up and closed the book as I tried to explain.“I— I well, i— was just— you said I should find out!" I yelled in defense, holding up the book. Thankfully, I picked up a book called Mysteries so chances were he believed me. Nikolai pursed his lips then nodded. He walked further into the study and that was when I noticed he was in nothing but his suit jeans and his black shirt was unbuttoned. It looked like he came here in a rush. Nikolai walked up to the opposite shelf and pulled out a large black book
"The beta requests your presence on the pack training grounds," the Messenger announced, barging into the kitchen. The other maids looked at me and snickered. "Tell him I'm on my way. I'm doing something at the moment," I said, calmly. The guard was about to say something but I glared at him forcing him to obey my command. He nodded then turned around to leave."Sarah, won't you go to answer the beta? You know he's in a bad mood. He just had another disagreement with the Alpha," Amy asked. "I'll go to him once I'm done with my work. The young lady of the house would have my head if I don't finish quickly. My father would just have to wait," I answered as I went back to scrubbing the cup. "Be careful though. He's fuming," Amy said, turning away. Seconds after she said that, a loud boom echoed through the kitchen. The maids and I straightened as fear enveloped us. Had something happened? Were we under attack?"Sarah!" The beta's voice boomed through the kitchen. Within seconds, he ha
