Strong arms wrapped around tiny waist, his broad shoulders intimidating as ever as he raise his glass in toast to the audience.Cheers erupted in the hall and for the first time in months, he had a smile on his face. He placed the glass in between his lips and sipped from it elegantly. He looked to the side and saw his mate sipping from her glass as well with a smile tugging at her lips. He did this for her. He realized he couldn't keep the news of their child from her so he told her but surprisingly, she didn't cry much and initiated the foundation idea. " Hey, are you listening to me?" He fell out of his daze when he felt her tugging at his hand with a frown on his face." I think I am," he answered nervously. Nisha rolled her eyes at him, she knew that he didn't hear anything she said. She felt hurt and dissapointed that he wasn't paying attention to her all along.He watched as she walk away angrily." How are you and Nora?" Beta Luke asked immediately Louis sat at the table.
NORA'S DIARYNisha wiped the dusts off the diarys surface and took a step back. She read the title over and over again as if she had read it wrong the first time. She just can't believe that something important as this has been laying inside the wardrobe for months. She was busy straining her braincells for answers, not knowing the answers to her questions has been by her side all along.She stumbled and regained her posture again. She took another step back and lowered herself down on the couch. She shift to adjust herself and leaned her back on the couch comfortably.' if this is Nora's diary, then everything about her daily life before her disapperance will be here,' she thought to herself silently.Her hand flip the cover over slowly while her heart raced in her chest in anticipation of what she would see next.The first page was blank and a sigh left her lips, but her heart resumed its marathon again as she reached forward to the next page." Hey, I'm Nora. Nora Luke and I'm an
" The leg will heal in short period but for now, you need to take as much rest as you can. Avoid shoes and wear only Crocs," the doctor instructed and Nisha nod her head. She turned her head sideway as the doctor carried her first aid kit and made her way out of the room.She is now left with Louis and the awkward silence has returned once again. " I'm sorry about what happened," Louis gulped. He felt conflicted for what happened to Nisha. He knew he has nothing to do with it but still, he believes she will blame it on him for always giving her that arrogant stare." Fuck you," she cursed and hissed loudly. " Thank you," Louis mumbled and she felt the side of the bed pressing downward. She knew that moment that it was him. He's sitting on the bed, next to her." I just realized something," he began and she felt sensation on her skin as his thumb grazed the delicate skin of her cheeks." I think we should spend more time together," he continued, his hand still caressing her cheek
It rang off and I sighed. I stared at the blank screen and my heart leaped into my throat when the call came again.I held my breath as my hand slide on the green button.I remained tight-lipped as I wait for the person on the other end to speak first." Nora it's me, Jason!," A masculine voice came and a huge sigh left my lips." Are you okay?" I hear him asked. He must have heard the huge sigh I left out.Gosh! I need to get rid of this fear in me. " Yes I'm okay," I answered." I'm just relieved that you didn't left without me," I added. It was the perfect excuse that I've come up with in ages." I wouldn't do that. I walked overtime so can you come downstairs? I'm through with my shift," " Sure, just six minutes," I answered and hung up.I picked all the stuffs Aurora might need along the way and stuffed them into a bag. I wore my belly bet and placed Aurora in it. What else do I need, okay, my phone. I quickly grab it and rushed out of the room because I don't want to keep Ja
LAKE PACKDressed in an armless yellow top and black vintage pants, she walked to the wardrobe and threw a book inside.She started pacing back and forth in the room with beads of sweats on her forehead." Nora, Austin and Louis," she mumbled and rubbed her palms together nervously. " How's that even possible? How did she end up as his second chance mate?"" No, no, this information is too much to handle." She threw her hands in the air in frustration and fan herself with her hand while letting out air from her mouth slowly." She also knows about my son and I'm the mate in vegetative state," " Arghhh!" She screamed and gripped her hair tightly, her heart broke into pieces and hot tears slipped out of her eyes.She don't want to admit that reading Nora's diary was a wrong decision. Finding out so many information within two days made her wants to explode. She crouched to the floor and sobs quietly. " Austin why?" She sobs and scratched her scalp. " How evil can you be?" She mumbl
Nisha felt shiver ran through her skin as the voice resonated in her ear. Even when her head was buried on Louis's chest, she could still perceive the familiar ant smell that she always go to bed with years ago.She wanted to see him, and know if he has change.Does he look older now or he still look the same as ever?" I know you're not dead," Louis broke the awkward silence with his deep husky and voice. The one Nisha has never heard." While I was away in Australia, healing the wounds you inflicted on me," Austin paused as his darted to the bare fair legs of Nisha." Report got to me that you invaded my pack and took my mate," He added stressing the word mate." She's just your second chance mate and she chose me over you," Louis blurted out in disdain.He can't help but get irritated at the belief that Austin still hasn't move on, despite all the fights." No she isn't because that woman in your arm is my mate," Austin said calmly but one could tell that beneath the calm voice is a
Standing by the bedside with her arms folded on her chest, she watched as the infusion dropped into the vein in his hand. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and bite on her thumbnail." Hey, you're awake," she said nervously with her heart in her throat as she stare at those deep blue eyes that pierced into her emerald eyes.His silence made her heart skip a beat in thousand times. The way his eyes pierced Into hers made her believe that he now know everything about her." Why did you attempt to jump the window?" Louis asked with a crispy voice and Nisha pressed her lips together before opening them to speak." I thought you left me," she mumbled while holding his gaze." I said I'll come for you," Louis replied not taking his eyes off her face as if searching for something on it." Yes but someone opened the wardrobe and asked me to come with him, so.." she paused and chewed her bottom lip." So, I thought he was a rogue and decided to run away from him," she completed her
~~~NORA'S POV~~~~" Well done guy's!" I waved at my employees as I ascend the podium stairs to meet them on the stage." Thank you, ma'am," they chorused and a smile crept on my lips." We made a lot of tips today and it's all thanks to you for giving us this opportunity, " Mia said and I stretched my hand forward and placed it on her shoulder affectionately." You don't have to thank me, okay," I squeezed her shoulder gently and she smiled at me." By the way, I like your smoky eye shadows. May I know what product is it? " Mia asked curiously and I am remembered of the smoky eye shadow I wore four hours ago.I'd wanted to wipe it off when I saw how I looked in the mirror with my hair curled into pixels but Jason had stopped me." You don't have to be simple in this business. You need to carry yourself with elegance that even past relatives won't be able to recognize you, " he had said and I found sense in what he said.I'd wanted to be a powerful woman so that when I walk into any ga
I felt nostalgic as we flew in the sky. So many emotions surged through me and for the first time, I don't know exactly how to feel. Sitting beside, Louis, Christian and that bitch Nisha. I felt like I was in a tight corner and going back home after several months, I couldn't help but feel scared. Even as much as I want Louis to touch me, I couldn't let him because a part of me still detest him. The memory of him cheating on me is still fresh. Silence loomed over us as we flew down to lake. As we alight, I held Aurora tightly in my arms. I left with pregnancy and came back with a baby. I wonder what awaits me. Alpha Rusev, my father and especially Sonya. I wonder if I'm going to live in the same room or I'll be given a chance to make my decisions. Immediately we walked into the packhouse, a gush of wind came and Louis leaned over to protect me and Aurora. After the dust dissipated, I opened my eyes and saw a woman in red cloak standing before us. Someone that I recognized to
He fell to the ground and my hand trembled. The gun fell from my hand and red liquid flowed in my direction.I just shot someone. I took a man down!My body trembled and I held Aurora tightly in my arms. Her cries were echoing all over the room but it was the last thing I could hear.The resounding of the gun and the thumping of my heart against my chest was enough to make someone deaf.I moved my feet slowly and tiptoed to where he laid in the pool of blood on the floor.If the cops get here, will I be accused of murderer? Will I go to prison and leave my daughter behind? I heard the footsteps getting closer and i quickened my footsteps. I halt when a groan came from Austin.Gosh! My heart stopped beating for a minute. He is not dead!" You fucking shot me." He groaned as he struggled to sit up.what will happen now? I couldn't help but ask myself silently with my heart in my throat.what will happen if Austin successfully sit up? will I still be able to escape.somehow, I felt sca
N O R AI kept pacing back and forth in the room, waiting for Austin to return with my daughter. I expected the cops to be here early since I called them about an hour ago.Now, I don't want them to come early, I want to have Aurora with me first. I don't want to leave her behind.I turned to the direction of the door, as every sound I hear sounds like footsteps.My belly churned but I have no appetite for food. I just want to get out of this place with my daughter alive. After, we can leave far away and start a new life. I heard the sound of key being inserted into the keyhole and my heart raced in my chest. Is that Austin? Does he have Aurora with him?I couldn't help but feel anxious and scared at the same time. I held my breath as the knob twist slowly. I placed my palms over my mouth as the door gets pushed open and Austin walked in with a toy, no, a baby wrapped in grey blanket wrapped in his arms. I stood there and watched in awe. Unable to move or utter any words. Is that
~~~~ LAKE PACK~~~~LOUIS'S POVAfter having a long conversation with Alpha ICE, I walked him out of my study and down the stairs. Silence loomed over us as we both had different thoughts in our minds.Mine is to find Nora as soon as possible with this photo. I don't know what's on ICE's mind. He is too secretive and cold for my liking.We took the last stair and approached the entrance door which also serves as the exit door.The guards opened it and we walked out. The sun has risen from its horizon and I believe it will be noon any time soon.His phone rang, thereby, breaking the silence between us. He quickly picked and placed it on his ear." Hello, Jason," he said and I stood by the side and excused him to answer his phone call but deep down I was eavesdropping." What?" He exclaimed and I became more curious to know why he exclaimed." How is that possible?" He asked again." Send me the address and we will be there immediately." He said and hung up. He turned to face me and I ar
N O R A " Austin?" The words left my mouth. I couldn't believe my eyes. Austin, standing right before me? Gosh! This is unbelievable. It hits me hard. The man in the SUV that left the club some nights ago and the sickling feeling. Austin has been stalking me all along.If Austin has been stalking me then he is up to nothing good. His fight with Louis is all over the media. He wants me for something and I won't let that happen. He's too dangerous." Nora," he called and I couldn't tell if he was surprised to see the gun in my hand or scared." Oh my goodness!" I screamed and threw the gun on the floor. I covered my mouth with my palms and whimpered into it.I ran forward wrapped my arms around him and hugged him tightly. He stiffened for a while and then his strong arms wrapped around my waist slowly." Where have you been? Why didn't you come for me earlier? " I asked why sobbing and I heard him gulp.I pulled back and wiped the tears on my face with the back of my hands. I stared d
Louis stretched his hand forward and picked the photo up. He looked at the face of the smiling woman in it and his eyes trailed down to the baby, wrapped in pink wrapper in her arms. He raised his head and looked at alpha ice with his mouth agape." This is Nora," the words left his mouth, barely as a whisper and alpha ice stroked his chin." Yes, her name is Nora," ICE and stood up from his seat in preparation to leave." Where did you get this from? " Louis asked curiously while holding the photo tightly in his hand." My daughter took it." He answered casually with a shrug and Louis squint his eyes at him." Does that mean, that your daughter know where Nora and my child is? " Louis couldn't help but ask.If alpha ICE daughter took the photo, then she has probably met Nora and even be friends with her." No. She doesn't." ICE answered sincerely and Louis frowned." But she took this photo" he argued. He believes ice daughter knew where his wife and mate is." She took it when she
The last thing nora heard was rest in pieces" accompanied by the deafening sound of a gun. Her eyes opened slowly but her eyelids were too heavy for her. Regardless, she forced them opened and looked around the smoky room.Her lips trembled as she couldn't neither Nisha or her daughter around. Then, she remembered the piercing cry of a child and a warm tear slipped down her face. " Aurora," the word left her mouth, barely as a whisper." Aurora!" She screamed, her voice echoing through the room." I will hunt you Nisha!" She screamed to the extent that her vocal cords started hurting." Aurora," she mumbled, her heart contracting so bad in her chest. The thing she feared most has happened to her.She closed her eyes and leaned back on the chair. She kept numbering incoherent words until she felt the presence of someone hovering her.Her chair was pushed up, before she could open her eyes and she felt a sense of freedom on her wrist as the ropes fall to the ground. " You're safe. Do
Nora bite on her lip and fought back the tears in her eyes. There was no way she was going to let this woman make her cry. She really don't know why it hurts so much. She has promised herself not to go back to Louis ever again but another woman appearing and asking her to stay away stirs the emotions in her. The emotion she has locked away in a secret chamber of her heart." I'm already out of his life." She said and Nisha exhaled." No, you're not." Nisha said with gritted teeth and stood from her chair." He still wants you back. He is on the look for you." She gritted with her teeth clashing against each other and the tears streamed down Nora's face." Louis want me back?" She asked, barely as a whisper and Nisha shot a glare at her. The one that could kill if only glare can kill " But I won't let that happen because he is mine now." Nisha spat with blazing eyes and Nora gulped. She couldn't help but wonder what Nisha plan to do with her because she looks bitter." Give me my daug
" Where's my daughter?" The words left my mouth, barely as a whisper and the woman just stood there gazing at me." She is fine." That sounds like my voice. This is weird.Why do I have a woman who looks exactly like me standing before me?" I want to see my child." I said in disdain and she snapped her hands. I heard footsteps coming in our direction and I watch her stretch her hands forward and the next thing I saw made my hand inch and my heart race." Aurora," tears streamed down my voice as the woman held Aurora in her arms like she is her child. At this juncture, I don't care to know who she is. I just want to make sure that my daughter is alright.All through my existence, I've always known one person that looks like me and that is my reflection on the mirror. " Your daughter is so cute," she smile sweetly at aura who giggled at her but I don't find it sweet at all.That giggle gave me the assurance that my child wasn't hurt but still, I want to take her away from that woman
