LucasWomen issues tired me a lot and it was testament to the fact that I gave Slyvia a lot of leverage. If it were to be other women, they would have been out of my life faster than they could say their names but I just couldn't do that to Slyvia because she was my mate and my wife even though I didn't acknowledge her that way.''I just don't have time for her now. I have to sort out my own shit.'' I made my way downstairs and towards the kitchen where the drink bar was. I needed something to step down, talking to Slyvia tended to tire me a whole lot and now, I needed something I could use to think about and taking a shot of tequila or maybe two could help me.Thankfully, I still had the liquid in supply. I poured a healthy portion into my cup, taking a small sip before downing the rest in my mouth. This was what I needed at that moment and nothing will ever make me drop it.''A drink? This late?''I didn't need to turn around to see it was Bret who spoke. The way he usually sneaked
"So, let's talk about you both." Her uncle said.Even before he got down to the details of what he wanted to talk about, Parker knew exactly what it was. He wasn't quite sure he wanted to talk about it with him but he knew he couldn't avoid it. One way or the other, he would still talk about it."Parker and I?" Amanda asked."Yes, I want to know what you guys are doing." He said.In order words, what he was trying to find out was whether I had any plans of breaking Amanda's heart."Uncle, if what you want to know is whether we are dating, yes we are." Amanda said.Parker stared at her and didn't realize how bold she was. This had to be the bravest thing he had ever seen her do and he loved it. "I see." He said."Sir, we're just taking it slowly for now but I... I really love your niece." Parker said.In that moment, Amanda felt loved. She took his hands hers, giving it a gentle squeeze. "I can see that clearly. Now, I'm not against you both dating because all I want is your happines
"Man, I need to talk to you about something." Jason said.Parker and Jason were currently in the living room after having their dinner. Amanda had forced the both of them to cook with her and when they were done, she had them clean up. According to her, that was their punishment for wasting her time before they began cooking.Now that they were done, they hadn't realized how tired they were until they sat down. Amanda had gone to bed early and same was her uncle."Okay, what's up?" Parker asked."The brotherhood... They've found something new." Jason said.That group was something Parker feared for a while but when he realized that they weren't all that bad, he relaxed. After all, they fought for the interest of people."What did they find out?" He asked.His concentration was so focused on what Jason had to say that he completely missed the small sigh he gave out."Aliyah or whoever she is is still on the prowl. Though she isn't posing any threat but as long as she's still roaming fr
"Aren't you going to school today?" Amanda asked.Parker yawned, stretching his body languidly as he looked at the woman he loved. He didn't feel like going to school for two major reasons and the first one being that he hadn't completed his school homework yet and secondly, he and Jason needed to go somewhere without her knowing."No babe, I'll pass today but I'll go drop you off." He said.With arms akimbo, Amanda stared at the man who had her heart. She didn't know why he wasn't going to school but whatever the reason, she hoped it was a good one."Sometimes, I don't even know why I bother with you." She sighed."That's because you love me." Parker laughed.He drew her closer until she bumped into his chest before wrapping his hands around her waist in a possessive grip."Can't say I don't." Amanda smiled, kissing his cheek lightly."Your uncle's awake?" "Yeah, but he left to go do some things. He'll be back soon though. He said he's finally leaving on Thursday but on Tuesday, tom
"What in heavens name happened here?" Amanda's uncle asked.Parker and Jason were just cleaning the house when he walked in and the look on his face was not pleasant at all. He looked livid, angry and Parker knew that any moment from now, he might probably lash out. That was how violent his temper was."We're just cleaning it up.’" Jason said."I see... Where's my niece?" He asked."She's gone to school." Parker said."Alone?" He asked with fear in his eyes.As he thought about it now, Parker realized that he shouldn't have allowed her go alone. They weren't quite out of the blues and now, he felt quite stupid for allowing her leave just like that."I... I don't think there's going to be any problems." Parker said.Even he didn't believe what he said. It was weak even to his ears which just made him miserable."Are you... You know what, just pray that nothing bad happens to her." He seethed.He left, making his way upstairs angrily. There were many things going on in Parker's mind. "
Classes that day at school were somewhat normal being that it was almost the year's end and so, there wasn't much activities. The only thing the students seemed to be doing was preparing for the Christmas carol coming up soon.Amanda didn't want to partake in any of it but on a second thought, she decided to do it. She realized that that would be one of the ways she could use to remember her parents and also, they would have loved her to do it most especially her mother."I'll make you guys proud, I will." Amanda sighed.It hurt to think that she would never see her parents again but there was nothing she could do about it."Hi." A voice said.Amanda who was going to the rest room turned to see it was Makayla who spoke. There was a timid smile on her face and Amanda knew it had to do with shame. Makayla was ashamed for what she had done to her."Hi." Amanda said with a small smile on her face."I can't begin to tell you how sorry I am for all the pain and heartache I've caused you. To
''Leave now.'' Lucas barked. ''I'm not going. Remus, do you honestly think because you've got a wife now that I would leave you? You belong to me and me alone.'' Sophia said with a stubborn look in her eyes. ''Then i have no other option but to remove you.'' Lucas said. Before she could utter another word, his men invaded the kitchen, dragging her out in a split second. The loud music was good enough a cover to drown out her screams. ''I won't have you destroy this party.'' he snapped. Now he had done that, he knew the next thing to do was to go see her after all of this because the Sophia he knew would cause havoc and he wanted to avoid that as much as possible. ''I need to get to Italy tonight,'' he said. After the party, Lucas informed Aliyah that he was making a quick trip to Italy. Though she didn't understand what the hurry was, she had a feeling it had to do with work. ''I'll be back before you know it.'' Lucas smiled. And with that, he was gone. Three days later, he w
Amanda decided to leave where she had been sitting. She made her way towards the classes, in preparation for her next class. Just as she rounded the bend towards the classes, she heard a loud noise. Amanda froze, training her ears on the sound."What the hell is that?" She said quietly.She stood for a minute, listening to the sound to see if she would hear it again. A few minutes later, Amanda decided to forget about it all and continue moving but just as she took the first step, she heard the sound again.This time, it was louder and somewhat closer. Amanda decided to be brave and check out where the sound was coming from. She walked closer towards the source of the noise and realized with horror that the noise was coming from the principal's office."What in the world is going on in there?" Amanda said, fear lacing her voice.She walked closer, putting her ears on the door to hear what was going on properly. From what she could gather, there were a lot of movements within the offic
''Thank you.'' Parker said.Amanda who had been in the middle of waking up and sleeping yawned as she opened her eyes. She had just had the best sex ever and she knew that in time to come, she would never forget any of this. Parker made her feel like a woman, a woman who was dignified and not like those other women men used, stories she had heard from her friends.''For what?'' Amanda asked.''For starters, for doing this with me. I know you can easily get your pick from all the numerous men out there but you chose me. That means something to me.'' Parker smiled.He moved closer to her, taking her warm hands in his. He couldn't quite believe he had a beautiful woman in his bed. It all seemed like a dream but Parker knew it was no dream, it was real. As real as it could get.''You don't have to thank me. I love to be with you just as you are to me so no need to thank me. All we have to figure out now is how to manage this without letting anyone else know about it.'' Amanda said.Parker
"How do you feel baby?"Amanda asked.It's been a few days since Parker was attacked and to say he made a speedy recovery would be an understatement, it was amazing.At the beginning, when it first happened, Amanda had her doubts whether he would recover but at the end, he not only surprised her but everyone who knew.Jamie and Amanda both knew that it was his strength that saved him but at the same time, Parker was so strong on his own that nothing could actually hurt him."I'm okay baby, you don't need to worry about me. I told you to stop asking about me, I'm more concerned about you. Tell me darling, how do you feel?" Parker asked.That was just one thing about him. Even though he was in pains, he would still make sure she was alright. That was the kind of man she loved and Amanda was quite glad she got him."Asides being scared that you might not make it, I'm okay over all." She smiled.Parker leaned closer to her, giving her a warm kiss on her lips.This was the best moment for t
‘’The Dremis’s have sought for outside help.’’ Aliyah began.If Lucas was surprised to hear this, he hid it well. For a group not so grounded as the Dremis’s, he had a feeling that they might likely have sought outside help. Now, it was happening and he didn’t know what to make of it. ‘’Wow! Really, wow!’’ Lucas said.‘’I know, that was my initial expression when he told me this.’’ Aliyah said.With those words, she had committed herself and she knew it was best for her to tell him everything at that moment because he would never stop until he found out what she really meant by those words.‘’Diabla, what do you mean?’’ Lucas asked.Aliyah sighed, taking a deep breath. She didn’t want to be seen as a traitor. Even though she was the head and could do as she pleases, her loyalty still remained with her group and she would rather die than compromise that.‘’I lied when i told you i went to see the accident victim.’’ Aliyah said.‘’I knew you were lying but I just didn’t know where you
Lucas was getting ready to leave his office when he received a call from Aliyah. He had been expecting her call and he was quite glad when he saw her name flash on his screen. Ever since his first kidnap, he had also been very careful on how he moved about.He didn't want to do anything that would cause her pain or put himself in a position that wasn't good at all. He needed to be careful now because a baby, his child, was also in the picture.Lucassmiled broadly and picked it up. He heared gushes from her as she thanks him for the dress. He knew she was going to do this but still, he was surprised at how enthusiastic she sounded. This just told him that she actually appreciated the gift and within him, he planned to give her more gifts as the day went by.''Hey baby, I see you like your new dress.'' he smiled.''Aliyah, I not only like it, I love it. Thank you so much.'' Aliyah gushed.She had always been a sucker for pretty dresses and anytime anyone gifted her one, she never faile
"Oh my gosh! No no no. It's not going through." Aliyah said.She had been trying to mind link Lucas ever since but the damn server was being distrusted by something or someone. It was very frustrating to say the least."Oh my gosh! What's going on? Where's Lucas?" Aliyah asked, pacing about.She gripped her phone in her hands, pacing about with tears streaming down her eyes. If anything were to ever happen to Lucas, Aliyah knew she'd never forgive herself nor him because she had warned him not to go anywhere but his stubbornness and insistence to go had caused him a whole lot."What's happening?" She asked.Patrick rushed in at that moment, panthing in her normal form. Aliyah had called her when she couldn't get a hold of Lucas because in that moment, she knew it was only Patrick that could calm her down."You still haven't gotten a hold of him?" Patrick asked, morphing back to her normal form."No and the worst part of it all is that the mind link seems to be scrambled somehow." Aliy
"Babe, I need to get to another town this evening. I need to pick up something from my office there." Lucas said. It was early in the morning, with the birds singing in the air and the morning animals chirping in the forests round about them. It was also the day of the anniversary, the day when both Aliyah and Lucas would be in their strongest form. "You realize what day it is today right?" Aliyah asked. Lucas knew but still, he knew he had to take the trip. It was very important not only to him but to the entire company and he wouldn't trade it for anything else. "This is important to me Aliyah, you've got to understand." He said Aliyah didn't know what was more important than staying home when he clearly knew that going out on a anniversary day was not a good decision. "Can't it wait till the following day?" Aliyah asked. "It honestly can't. If I could, I wouldn't bother going today." Lucas said. Aliyah thought about it and judging from the look in his eyes, she knew it had
LucasI couldn't lie to myself that what Slyvia said hurt me a whole lot. The bite and sting in her voice hurt me a lot but the last thing I would do was to see how much she hurt me. I would rather eat sand than allow her to see that she actually got to me.''Bitch!'' I hissed.Her disgusting attitude and behavior was going to get her into trouble one day and I would be there to watch her downfall and also laugh at her.I made my way back to my room. There were many things I needed to do and the earlier I got on with it, the better for me. I didn't have time to worry about someone like her when there were other things I could worry about.Slyvia was of no importance to me and in that moment, I knew I needed to put her in her place. That was the best thing I could do to someone like her.''So… how did it go?'' a voice said.I didn't need to look back to know that it was Patrick who spoke. He was very inquisitive as well as nosey and would always want to know everything that was going o
"Parker, let's go make some cookies." Amanda said.She was in the mood to eat and actually make some of the delicious cookies with Parker. With him, she always felt safe, like nothing could actually go wrong which was her own safe space."Now?" He asked."Yes, or don't you?" Amanda asked.Not that she'd be angry about that but she just knew that the next time she decided to make it, she wouldn't have the energy to."I'm game." Parker smiled.Together, they made their way towards the kitchen, holding hands like lovestruck teenagers. Sometimes, they couldn't get a hold of themselves which at times was very annoying especially to Jamie who couldn't stand them at all."If Jamie was here, you know he'd probably shout at us for being so cringy." Amanda laughed."Yeah... Yeah, I told the guy to get a girlfriend but he feels so reluctant about it. I'll probably talk to him about it again." Parker said."Is he scared of commitments?" Amanda asked.That was the only thing that came to her mind
"Yo! Parker, I have to get out for a while." Jamie said.His plan was to go to the brotherhood's office to tell them that he would be leaving soon. It hurt him to leave but he had to get back to his mother and also finish up his school."Okay, stay safe bro." Parker said from the inner room.He was helping Amanda with some of her homework which some of her friends had mailed to her. It was off to say the least because it was usually the other way around with her teaching him. But if there was one thing Parker was good at, it was English literature.When it came to that, he was champion, nobody could beat him in that and it was no wonder he aced all his papers in that aspect."Will do." Jamie said.He left the house, shutting the door firmly. Ever since Amanda was attacked in school by that crazy monster, she'd been taking home lessons which was safer and both Parker and her uncle could keep an eye on her.Her uncle who had planned to leave before might not be leaving in a long time.
