Alessia realizes that forcing marriage with the only man she loved was her greatest mistake when Thompson, her husband, returns with his fated mate. Even after bearing his child, Thompson's indifference remained. He uses Alessia solely to maintain his reputation. Fate decides to cast a faint hue of light into Alessia’s bleak existence as she's unconsciously drawn to Lycan Cyril, the enigmatic Lycan king whose deadly aura awakens dormant existence. But is this really fate granting her salvation or the other way around? Especially when Lycan Cyril's obsession ignites upon discovering Alessia possessed the rare feature he searched his whole life for? And when Thompson becomes resistant to relinquishing his hold on Alessia?
View MoreChapter 53Thompson's povMy blood boiled. My veins flamed with smokes, burning my insides. I badly want to shove a claw into the Lycan's idiotic face. It didn't faze me so much to hear Alessia address him by his first name. So many times she had attempted it in my presence. I wasn't so shocked. I knew something like this was on between them. I only tried to believe it was Alessia throwing herself on the Lycan. Call it selfish or whatever, I couldn't afford to bear a grudge towards the Lycan king considering the great advantages I earned from him. If he had remained quiet and just let me take Alessia away, we'd have been fine. Everything would have been okay even though I saw him kiss her back with so much enthusiasm. And it wasn't too late either. He could stop the fuss and not test my patience any further. But Alessia was definitely dying tonight. “Ain't you curious, Thompson?’’ He creased a brow, tilting his head as if to get a clearer access to read me. Why did my heart drea
Chapter 52CYRIL’S POVShe froze. Staring at me like she had just encountered a night ghost. The cold night wind brushed a few strands of hair on her face continously. “Why do you look like you've seen a ghost?’’ I creased a brow, tilting my head to watch her more intensely. “Cause I've probably just seen one.’’ She spoke, breathing out, and folding her arms. Her face changed to a serious expression. “You should be in bed now.’’ I stepped forward, but she stepped back, causing me to stop. I guess my gaze were questioning enough. “Why are you talking to me now, have I been invisible to you all these while?’’ She proffered rather defiantly. “Just ignore me like you have been doing all day.’’“Alessia,’’ I called calmly after a moment of silence, but she bursted. “Come to think of it, we're not even anything. Haven't I been so cheap, giving myself to you so many times out of my stupidity? Let's just end it here. Stop what you're doing and I'll be fine with time.’’ She paused to ta
Chapter 51Alessia's pov “Where are you coming from?’’ Thompson demanded before I even shut the door after myself. I stood before the door, my heart confiscating a bit as my rehearsed lie rolled on my tongue. “I asked a question.’’ He fumed, his eyes gleaming with anger and resentment almost made me flop.“I slept out.’’ I swallowed, almost choking on my words. ”Out where?’’ Thompson advanced. “Didn't you need space? I gave you the space you desired.’’ I fired, my back hitting the door as I tried to stylishly step out. I forgot I'd shut the door after coming in earlier. Thompson grabbed my neck in a strong grip, causing my breath to cease in my nose pipes. “Where did you spend the night? Don't you dare lie to me.’’ His breath burnt against my skin. “There are a thousand other bedrooms in this mansion. I could choose to sleep in any if them like you did the first time we visited here.’’ I used his very own actions against him. My killer counter-attack point. His fingers tighte
Chapter 50Cyril’s POVI couldn't resist the heat of her presence, especially behind these confinement. No one, not even Thompson, could be allowed access to this floor. The only reason Alessia was allowed in here was the general knowledge in the mansion that she was my mate. There were CCTV cameras at the entrance passage and the elevator which of course was under the supervision of security bodies. She would have gotten stuck in the elevator until they came to get her out. I watched surprise and disbelief cross her alluring facial features, her lips perking up like she was going to say something but didn't know what. It'd been a grave burden forcing myself to ignore her. But if I had to get her in the next one month as planned, I needed to stick to the rules of the game plan. I knew it'd affect her. I saw the pain in her eyes every time I treated her like a lint in Thompson's presence. The goal was to make her realise how much she truly craved my attention, my admiration, and my
Chapter 49Alessia's pov“Is there a problem, Mrs Weverse?’’ Alan stopped a few steps away. “Is this some kind of joke now?’’ I glared, detesting the way he laid emphasis on Thompson's last name on me. ‘‘How do you mean, Mrs…’’“Don't.’’ I cut in. “I do that know what you're talking about, please come with me.’’ I could swear I saw him roll his eyes. “I know my way around here, obviously. So there's no point of you following me around.’’ I stopped him before he took another step. “I'll take this as your dismissal then.’’ He squinted shortly and walked away. Sighing exhaustedly, I entered the room to see two maids already fixing my wnd Thompson's stuff in. “Melanie!’’ My face brightened as I recognised her as the first maid. “Welcome back, my lady.’’ She lowered her head. “We're organizing the place, please be a little patient. We'll be done in less than ten minutes.’’ Her manner of politeness was nothing short of awkward. Yes, she was usually polite but not in a distanced ma
Chapter 48Alessia's pov.I didn't wait five more minutes at the beach. I packed up our snacks and folded the mat. Neither Adrian nor Liah tried to oppose my action and quietly followed my lead. They ruined everything in the first place after all. I drove back home and went straight into the shower. I thought I had gotten over Cyril, why the hell did I go numb in his arms?Pulling my towel to wrap myself, I stepped out of the bathroom dripping wet to meet Thompson on my bed. He stared for a while, his gaze sweeping down to my feets before coming back to linger on my thighs.“How was your hang out at the beach?” He asked. Not like he really cared to know.“Didn't you leave for the office this morning?’’ I asked back, a little surprised to see him. A chuckle left his lips, one I thought seemed rather weird. “There's really much you don't know about.’’ He remarked. His comment cut like a sharp slice against my chest. Quietly, I strode to my closet to get some clothing. I was at it w
Chapter 47Alessia's pov“You both stay here, I'll be back in a jiffy.’’ I patted the kids' heads and they nodded like the obedient pubs they were. I rushed to get us ice creams from the beachside itinerant trader. There was a small crowd of buyers, so I had to wait a bit until it was my turn. I got three portions for myself and the kids and returned to our spot, only to meet the picnic mat empty. My heart flew off immediately, my gaze darting to the sea. By any chance, did they go into the water?I couldn't get a glimpse of them from the number of people playing at the beach bank. There was no way they could have gone into the water, not after my strict warnings in the car. I dropped the plates of ice cream and began waltzing, asking anyone around if they found the two kids on the mat earlier. My heart exploded dynamite against my chest at every negative reply I got. “Over there, they left with their dad.’’ A young couple I asked pointed towards a beach house not down the beach..
Chapter 46Thompson's pov“So you mean I can't attend with you even though it's happening here in the house?’’ Annalise pushed.“You can't, Anna.’’ I snapped, fed up of talking about it already. She kept insisting on going with me to the meeting in place of Alessia. “So make me your Luna. Get rid of her and make me your Luna, Thompson.’’ She yelled, sending a sigh off my lips. We've been over this since yesterday. I don't know what knot missed in her head but for some reason she thought she could be Luna.“You know nothing.’’ I sniggered, fixing my watch. “What do you mean ‘I know nothing’? You think I'm not worthy of the Luna title.’’ She twisted. “Hey.’’ I turned from the mirror to face her. “Don't get me twisted. I'm saying, you can't handle the stress that comes with it. I don't want you to.’’ I quickly added. She let out an unbelievable scoff. ‘‘Let's get this topic over with. I've told you…’’ “You don't want to divorce her, right? Now I'm hating Alessia even more. I swea
Chapter 45Thompson's povShe seemed stunned at first, then without any protests, she began stripping until she was starck naked. I felt my urge build harder at the sight, my length pushing against my pants. “Come here.’’ I demanded. “The kids are home today, we can't have the door unlocked.’’ She seeked and turned to lock the door, her ass bouncing effortlessly. “Get on your knees.’’ I loosened my belt, letting my firm choad out to her face. She swallowed it up immediately, working her small lips around my size. I couldn't hold back the grunt that escaped my throat. I hardened my muscles in a bid to stop myself from grabbing her hair. Why was she being so submissive now? She was driving me crazy. After putting in a deep thought, I realised Alessia was probably going to make a protest last night but I hadn't given her the chance to. I was out to confirm my observations, but she was pulling a whole different attitude yet again today. I had almost lost it when Annalise kept scre
Chapter OneALESSIA'S POV"Do you imagine I'm happy tagging this hog along every time?" Thompson cocked his chin in my direction like I was some stomp in the pasture. "That doesn't change the fact that Alessia gets to attend these functions as your wife while I stay home all night waiting for you to come back." A sly smile twitched on my lips, Annalise and my husband had their row about the grand marriage anniversary of the southern territories Alpha and his Luna. Annalise was Thompson's mate while I was his wife. "What the hell is funny?" Thompson took giant strides to where I stood by the refrigerator.The smiles on my face instantly faded. I knew how this always went. Thompson came awkwardly closer to me, towering before me, trapping me against the refrigerator and his rigid chest. His large palm cupped my chin tilting my head up so our gazes could fuse. "Let me make this clear to you, just because I have to stick to the goddamn law and have you attend these functions with me ...
