“Oh my God, that was too harsh." I laughed in-between mouthful of lasagna.We finally decided on today being a Tuesday which I'm off work to go out together as planned.Which secretly, I've been looking forward to. A day that will convince me if Greg can be my second Mr perfect.“Really, come on. She was drooling at my dick. What else had you suggested I do?”I rolled my eyes. “I don't have anything in mind but I definitely wouldn't have tell her to go find a twelve inches rod to stick her pussy on.”“Yeah. You wouldn't have done that, which means I probably have to go ask for forgiveness.” “And hear her tell you to go find a pussy as wide as a well to thrust your dick into. Better not go."“Not like I was going to go anyways.”I chuckled softly and continued feasting on my food.“So...Can I ask you a question?"“Sure. Ask anything you feel like knowing."“Are you in any kind of relationship now ?" He bit on his word as if he's trying to check if he's question is a good or bad one.
I looked around to make sure no one was looking, then grabbed the already-fried meat from a platter on the counter. I wasted no time in throwing it into my mouth, before retreating to a darker part of the kitchen to eat in peace.The sudden sound of footsteps from outside the kitchen made my heart skip a beat. I couldn't be caught eating anything other than the measly meals served to Omegas.I wiped my hands hastily on my clothes to clean off the oil.Once I straightened, the head cook burst into the kitchen, her mouth set in that so-familiar pout I was used to. “Why did you leave the burner running?” She asked with heat, glancing around the kitchen no doubt to pick faults. It was only then I noticed that I'd forgotten to turn off the electric cooker, and might've as well set the kitchen, if not the entire building on fire.“I-I’m sorry-” I began saying, but trailed off when she promptly raised her hand.“Save it, and take your sorry ass to the Alpha's study. He demands your presen
The fate of my mate was in the balance, and I knew that any little mistake could cause everything to crash down, so I was going to make sure that we took this gently, considering the kind of evil person that Mateo was. There was no doubt that he could do everything as long as he got what he wanted and in dealing with such kind of people you had to be very careful. We continued to stare at each other for a while and the gears continued to turn in my head while I thought about what I was going to do to him. I prayed for a brain wave, something that would have me attack him before he even knew what was going on. But I also suspected that he had a kind of trap waiting for me so I made sure to check out the facade again and again. The pressure continued to mount and after I had made sure that nothing had been set in the form of a trap, I immediately backed out the order at my men. "Attack!" I yelled at them and my men immediately charged forward, running towards the entrance of the cave
My eyes fluttered open and the world gradually began to come into focus. I tried to sit up but the pain in the lower half of my stomach reminded me that it was best to stay still for now. My mind was still clogged with what happened before I fell asleep and as the memories started to rush in I couldn't help but be emotional. I remember everything from how Kaden had successfully rescued me from the hands of Mateo and how the contraction had begun and how I had passed out as soon as we got back to the park. I had no idea of how everything else happened but I guess we were here. My mind was still filled with lots of thoughts and I could not think straight at the moment. That was the moment something struck my mind. "Kaden? Is he in danger?" I asked myself, remembering how Mateo had ordered his men to have him shot. My thoughts were just a jumbled mess and I couldn't quite piece everything together. That was the moment I turned my head to my right and to my surprise my mother sat ther
Everyone was trying to leave for the wedding and with Kaden getting on my nerves, I had no idea if we were going to be able to catch up with the wedding service. I needed to be there before the wedding so I could talk to her and offer the advice I could. I stopped for a while, listening for a footstep but i heard none. I was beginning to simmer. "Honey! We are going to be late! Come on." I yelled, shaking my head. Amber was soon running down the stairs."Where's your brother?" I asked, stretching my hand across the stairs to stop her from running. "And please don't run down the stairs anymore, okay?" I said to her, giving her a gentle pat on the cheeks. She nodded before replying. "He's with daddy." I glanced down at the luggage. There were no guards in sight to help me with it so i just had to wait until Kaden was down. He had always complained about how I was too relaxed whenever it was time to get ready for a journey like this, but today he was guilty. Xavier and Amber were al
My nerves tingled with anticipation and excitement as the stylists scurried around me, each performing the specific tasks they had been employed to carry out. I had been dreaming of this day, ever since he mated me, it would seal the relationship between Kaden and I forever. I could feel nimble fingers brushing my hair as my makeup was being applied. "Your hair is absolutely gorgeous." Jane, the blonde hairdresser complimented, but I knew it was a hyperbole. My hair was great, but absolutely gorgeous? No. "We are thinking of weaving in some braids, what do you think?" She asked, the rest of her words were carried by a loud bang that emanated from the door as another stylist walked into the room. "I'd love the braids, be fast about it though. We don't have all day." I said, admiring my hair hair the mirror. "And your makeup, I am thinking of a soft, smoky look." "Just do your thing Jane, I trust you." I said, before shutting my eyes, my face breaking into a smile. My room was buzz
Thankfully she was able to steady herself before she bolted off again in full tilt, her tiny legs carrying her with boundless energy. "Goddess." I muttered, knowing I had to go get her immediately before something worse happened. I quickly stood up from the window side where I was seated. "She's just like his father, they never rest. You should let her. " My mother said, smiling the moment she knew what was happening. "I'm not taking the chance mother." I said, hurrying towards the door before she said something else to stop me. I could hear her laughter as I walked through the passageway, en route to the outside. A tender smile crossed my face the moment I saw Ichabod running after her. They were chasing a butterfly and the moment she caught it, they admired it for a while, the laughter ceasing. She flashed a grin the moment she saw me and stretched her hands like I had caught her doing something wrong. "Mummy, here! A butterfwy!" She exclaimed. Her L's and R's rolled off as W'
The room was filled with the aroma of freshly prepared food but I knew that eating we just felt like I was pouring ashes into my own mouth. I could not eat because my heart was shattered. I looked up again at the table to see the pastries, grapes and all other sorts of food that was scattered around it because none of it appeared to me at all. I could not eat because my heart was filled with guilt and the Guilt no matter how much I tried to state a side continued to gnaw at me from the inside. It felt as though I was being ripped apart from inside because how could I sit here and try to eat while my mate and my unborn child were in the captivity of an enemy who I knew nothing about. The worst part of the whole thing was that the enemy who had abducted my maids had not offered any kind of Ransom and it was clear that they wanted her to themselves because they needed something. She was very Gifted so that might be their main aim but I could not say how she couldn't have gotten herse
The next few days following my claiming Kacie back has been the best days of my whole life.Going on dates, having sex countless times and to conclude it all, she and Rafiq became so close I feared she won't have time for me anymore. I've been begging her like forever to move back in but at the end she would just say "I'm not ready yet, and I'm working now.”So our everyday routine is:she comes to my house whenever she's off work, spend time with Rafiq and me which is never enough and then I'll drive her back home.“Hey.” I said to a very surprised Kacie clad in just a towel.We were supposed to go out on a date by ten but here I am standing before her eight on a dot. Don't blame me, I can't help it. I can't even concentrate in the office if Kacie isn't beside me.“Hi." She said slowly when the surprise of seeing me wear off then she stepped back to allow me inside.“Are you aware you're two hours early?"“Two hours? I'm a little late if I came two hours before the agreed time.” I wal
“Do you think you can make it to my house tonight for dinner? My father is coming over so I thought it'd be nice to invite you guys.” I asked Eshe over the phone.“Sure. Of course." She answered giggling slightly.“I would love to."“Alright. See you soon." I said then hung up.Since my father said he was coming over for dinner today two weeks after we met. I'm so eager and anxious to see him again because he travelled out for business and he wasn't around. So we couldn't see each other and catch up on the time we lost although we talked twice on phone.I rushed to ask Josh who always looked like he knows much about my father to ask him what kind of dishes my father fancies.I wasn't so surprised when he told me Italian and Chinese food. I really have many things in common with my father, Now the problem is what should I prepare?Debating for more than an hour before I finally settled down to go for bruschetta, chicken parmesan and chicken pao.I glanced at my phone, few minutes past s
“You've got any plans today?" Zayn asked me.I was about saying no when I remembered promising Josh to come over for dinner. “Yes.”I had to spend the night at Zayn's because Rafiq had begged me to and I couldn't bear to deny him his wish.He even asked me to wait and have breakfast together with them and God__It was the most awkward breakfast I've had in my entire life.If not for Miriam I sure would have lost my sanity right at the dining table. And finally after breakfast when I thought I would be free from both father and son and just head home, they both walked their way into the kitchen where I was helping nanny Miriam out with the dishes and dragged me out begging me to help Rafiq out with his maths.Actually it was only Rafiq that did the saying but I could bet my salary that his father filled his head up with words to use so I would find it hard to reject his request.And to Zayn's happiness I couldn't reject helping Rafiq which is the only reason I'm still here till noon wh
“Kacie darling, it's so nice to see you." Miriam pushed past me and engulfed Kacie in a hug.“The house hasn't been quite itself since you left." I groaned at her tone. She's been fussing the entire month, right after I kicked out the fake Alessandra to bring back Kacie and build a perfect family.She wouldn't let me have a breath comfortably without bringing up Kacie.“I'm sorry ma. I didn't mean to leave in such a manner." Kacie apologize and kissed her right cheek.“It's fine, as long as you're back now. We have a lot of catching up to do." I almost coughed. How will she react if I told her Kacie is yet to accept me back. I don't want to imagine it at all.“Are you hungry?" Miriam added leading her inside the house. I shook my head and followed them inside. It would have been perfect only if she had accepted me already, then I would be rest assured and focused on dealing with my uncle.“Where's Rafiq?” I asked coming back into the living after searching upstairs without seeing him
Looking down at my burnt waffles with sleepy eyes I cursed silently before discarding it into my trash can.I woke up few minutes to six thanks to the blazing hunger In my stomach. For the past five days I've been feeling weird: always eating, sleeping almost all the time and I suddenly developed a lazy attitude.Looking at my burnt breakfast in my trash can I hissed in frustration before grabbing a bowl. I poured enough cereal that on a normal day I won't dare to finish it, poured in enough fresh fruit and milk before walking down to the living room to eat.Who could be calling so early in the morning. I stared at my vibrating phone in annoyance before picking it up. It might be someone important.“Hello." I mouthed into the phone.“I thought you wouldn't pick up.” I pulled the phone from my ear and looked at the strange number.“Josh how many times did you change your number this month? And why are you calling me this early, You're supposed to be sleeping.”“Yes. But I just wanted t
“This restaurant looks very fancy and beautiful but...Why is it empty?” her eyes were all over scanning the empty tables around us.I acted like I was surprised too because if she knows I booked the entire restaurant for our date, she's likely to kick a fuss.“You didn't book the entire restaurant right?" Her eyes were fixed on me.“I didn't. You don't really like lemons, why are you having lemon bar for dessert?" I asked before popping an apple pie into my mouth.I had waited until my mother healed up completely before I picked a date for our date. Much to my relief she and my mother relationship are back to normal which only means one thing. I'm one step to winning my woman back.“You really know a lot about me don't you?" She was smiling.I shrugged.“You were my fiancèe for a year it would be a shame if I don't know a thing about you."She smiled again then focused her attention and continued eating on her dessert.“I want to try new things.”I nodded my head.“Might I venture to ask
I stared on as Zayn's mother breathing slowed down. I wasn't so sure if what I applied on her affected leg would help.The antidote I used was given to me by my late grandmother, I was little then__I never thought a time would come when I will have to use it. I've tried my best, the least I could do now is to wait for her to fight her way back because as it is now my life might as well be entwined with hers.I kept back the towel I used in calming her temperature down inside a bowl of water and carried it up to take it to the kitchen.“Don't you think we should take her to the hospital or should I call our family doctor?" Zayn asked from behind where he's been standing ever since I asked him to come back.“She will be fine.” I said. Even to my ears I sounded very unconvincing. “Let's leave her to rest, the venom will flow out of her system In a few minutes.” or hours.“After that you can take her to the hospital." I added so he might be at ease a little.“I'll just stay here with her.
I sat down outside patiently waiting for Kacie to return back home from work. It's been two hours past the time her shifts normally end. I'm beginning to lose my patience, I really need to see her face. To hold her hand.The sound of a car driving in pulled my head up and made me stop fidgeting with my fingers.My eyes lowered down to the hands of Greg wrapped around her tiny waist and heaven knows I want to rip his flesh out of his damn bone.They both couldn't see me where I was sitting on her stairs giving Greg dangerous glares. To crown it all he kissed her on her forehead before going into his car. Hell she was even smiling and waving at him.I sat still and waited for her to come meet me and the shock on her face seeing me sitting there with my arms folded is priceless. “What are you doing here?" She asked quietly.“What does it look like pumpkin? I'm here to see you of course."She scoffed and brushed past me going to open her door. “Are you coming in or not?"“You don't need
“What will you like please?" I asked whoever was standing before me without lifting my eyes up from the tumbler I was arranging.“Tonic and gin.”“Okay.” I turned back to the stack of drinks arranged on the shelf behind me.“Here's your drink__" my words got trapped in my throat as I stared at the man sitting before me.“Kacie?" He voiced out.“Y-Yes, I'm Kacie." I managed to say as I took the man in. Green eyes just that his were a little dark than mine. His hair color. This man sitting here__this man is my father.“Can we go out and talk, don't worry I talked to your boss already so you're free to come with me. If you want to." He added stressing out the 'if I want to'“Sure. Let's go." I ignored the voice yelling in my head that I barely know this man, I only found out two days ago that I have a father and mother other than the monster and beast who brought me up. But somehow I quickly felt safe the moment I laid my eyes on this man.I took a quick glance at Olivia who was standing
