With these thoughts troubling her mind, Lily rolled from one end of the bed to the other. Meanwhile, Kayden had retired to his study to do some work. He had not been to the office for quite some days now. He had been working from home and looking after the unconscious Lily. He wanted to know what her reaction would be when she opens her eyes in an unfamiliar house. But who would have knew, that she was going to lose her memory so much that she's not even sure of her name. After responding to some mails, and signing some documents, his mind drifted off to the woman sharing his roof. There's something about that woman that makes him want to help her. Why did he felt that inner compulsion to save her life? Why did he willingly gave up his blood? She's a woman and he was in his werewolf form on the night he found her. On such nights of the full moon any Wolf would be willing to devour and kill but on the contrary, he had the intuition to save her. When he brought her to his m
Without Waiting another ten seconds, Kayden Diego walked out of the room shutting the door behind loudly. He shouldn't have gone to her room. Why was he doing the wrong things over and over again after meeting this woman Lily? A certain part of his body had gone rigid and protruding like a predator capable of devouring his prey. If Lily had mistakenly allowed her eyes linger to the lower part of his body, she would have seen the pranks that certain part was playing on him. So embarrassing. Even if the sky was going to fall, he was not going to enter her room again. Kayden Diego got into his room and quickly went for a shower. He had to calm his tensed body. He had never felt like this before for any woman but this woman had awoken a sleeping part in him. He thought he was so strong and no woman was capable of arousing his masculinity. But that philosophy of his had been proven wrong by Lily. He must avoid her deliberately henceforth. He can't get himself into an unjust
Lily was the first to finish her meal. She glanced at Kayden who sat on her right and teased " if we were in a competition, I definitely would win". But Kayden did not reply nor spare her a glance. Justin had been stealing glances at his Lord and the woman by his side. Lord Kayden seemed uncomfortable with Lily's presence. The happy cheerful Alpha a while ago had now turned into an icy cold expressionless man. Seeing Kayden ignored Lily. He felt the atmosphere become chilly with a compressed aura. To ease the tension, and not make Lily angry he jokingly asked "that's how Lord eats and I am beginning to adapt to his way too" His fear was immediately dissipated when Lily chuckled and Said " I am usually excited when I eat my favorite foods and always ends up emptying the plates earlier than usual. And fried rice, is my favorite!" She replied happily with a giggle but suddenly paused with a frown. Justin saw the sudden frown on Lily's face and immediately asked "what happen
As soon as Justin went into Kayden Diego's study, he saw the latter staring intently at his laptop with a faint smile on his lips. He raised his hand and beckoned to him to come over. The study is a large room with a giant book shelf. The shelf houses a wide variety of books and journals ranging from business journals and books on various human endeavors. There's a large mahogany desk and behind it a swivel chair. There are different files arranged on one side of the desk. There's a part where stationaries are kept. Kayden Diego sat behind the desk with his computer on the top, obviously feeling excited to have been invited Justin over. Justin walked over. He looked at the laptop and saw what was displayed on it. A multimillion dollar contract award from the government of Z-country had been awarded to the Starlight Group!. Kayden Diego is the president of the Starlight Group, one of the largest groups in the city. This contract had been pursued by Kayden for months and h
The Cruz cooperation was shut down momentarily. All the employees were asked to return home and mourn their deceased boss. A large portrait of Lily Cruz was placed at the gate of the company. The Cruz castle where Lily and her husband lived was opened for as many as are interested to stop and leave their condolences. Damian Cross was heart broken. The butler and Lily's chauffeur were the ones that held him down. Once he had hit his head against the wall and would have continued if it weren't for the quick intervention of the butler who stopped him by holding him in a tight hug. Several times he had pleaded with them to let him be. He would stab himself to death so that he would be with his darling wife Lily. He can't live without her, she was his everything and the light that brightens his life. Damian Cross' parents sat with the guests and sobbed. They said wonderful words about their daughter in law. She's such a pure, perfect and loving daughter in law anyone could ev
Kayden Diego and Justin Stone went out by noon that day, leaving Lily and the servants alone in the mansion. Lily spent her day in her room. She's bored and felt solitary. She doesn't want to step out of the mansion for fear of being recognized. She had lost her memory and can't even remember the people in her life. If someone sees her and recognizes her, how will she relate with such a person? She felt stuck up in the mansion. As she lay on the bed, she rehearsed the little she now knew about herself. But the most tragic part of her life now was not about her suffering from amnesia, but the fact that she's become a hybrid:partly human and partly a werewolf. At least that's what Kayden Diego told her. Will she one day transform into some scary, fierce looking wolf? She'll become a she-wolf? or no..maybe a male wolf since it's a 'he' that made her into a wolf. Will her life henceforth remain as a werewolf or it's just for some time before she transforms back to a full hu
Lily gently raised herself and saw Kayden Diego staring at her. He didn't look angry at all. On the contrary, he looked appreciative. Lily became shy and looked away . She shyly walked away until she heard him call her. "Lily!" Kayden Diego called in a tone that's best described as a whisper. Lily paused but didn't look back at him. "Thank you. But don't do it next time" He instructed in a domineering voice. Without waiting for Lily to reply, he walked past her. She was surprised at his words. He thanked her which implies that he appreciated what she did but immediately also asked her not to do it again. He's so unpredictable. Lily, recovering her wits, ran after him "Mr Kayden Diego" she called as she saw he was almost done climbing the stairs. She had to ask him a favor. Kayden Diego paused in his steps and turned to glance at her expressionlessly. He could spare and say a few words to her. He hoped she wasn't going to take advantage of the fact that she was given an in
"Hello, Lily" the woman greeted with a broad smile. Lily felt puzzled. This woman know her name? She stared at her. The woman looked elegant and graceful and could not pass for a maid. Is she Kayden Diego's mother or a close relative? "Hi" Lily replied and smiled as well. Smile is truly contagious and one receives it when you give it. The woman introduced herself as Ms Gracey and said she'll be staying in the mansion with her for the time being. Lily was super excited. So there'll be someone who will keep her company henceforth? Just what she'd been thinking last night and couldn't bring herself to voice it out. Mr Kayden Diego is really mysterious. He knew her thoughts again? But even at that, she was glad at last that she will not be the only female in the mansion anymore. Oh the feeling of excitement. Ms Gracey saw her happy appearance at just her mentioning that she would be staying with her and immediately liked her. This girl is a lovable person. She felt at ease seei
He wondered if Lily felt any remorse for what she's done to his mother? She's behaving like she doesn't even give a damn. He was taken away by the police in handcuffs with his father. But his father said nothing. He doesn't know why he couldn't say a word. He was injected with an unknown drug by one of Lily's men. Had they turned him into a dumb man? Damian's mother was taken to a prison hospital. No one cared to investigate what led to her falling into a state of unconsciousness. Having settled everything, Lily sighed audibly: She'd taken her revenge and felt an inner satisfaction. Her parent's killers have been brought before the law. They were going to rest in peace and be happy that their daughter did what she was supposed to have done a long time ago: severe every relationship with Damian and sent him to jail Lily ordered the servants to give the mansion a thorough cleaning and remove everything that resembles or belongs to Damian Cross and his family. She would retur
"Get some rest, you'll be coming out as the Lily Cruz everyone thought was dead, tomorrow" Kayden announced to her. Now was the best time to act. Damian is powerless and is facing the battle of his life right now. His wife Anna has her own story to tell. No one can make a report about what happened that day, on the contrary they will be surprised when police come after them. "Tomorrow? I was going to still play around with Damian more" Lily pretended to be unhappy. She wants to see Damian Cross and Anna Brook pass through a second phase of her torture. "Is tomorrow too early? We need to strike while the iron is hot" If they delay, Damian Cross would recover and create a scene. And that may get them delayed." As for Damian Cross, you have dealt with him enough, let the law take over" Kayden Diego declared. "Ok. But how do I appear tomorrow?"Lily asked. That has been bothering her for a while now. Since everyone except Harold Aaron believed that she was truly dead, how will peopl
Anna Brook started sobbing audibly. "Lily, please spare him for old times sake and let's take him to the hospital. I am begging you". Her husband had suffered severe pains and even passed out. The least that can be done to him was that he should be taken to the hospital but alas, Lily wants to wake him up with a chilled water? Seeing the bodyguard's blood stained hands, she can imagine what Damian Cross was going to look like. He had lost his ability to father a child, but his life should be saved. The once naive and fragile Lily had turned into a monster. "You should start worrying about your own calamity rather than your dear husband"Lily declared and looked at her with hatred in her eyes. She should worry that Damian Cross would not be able to make love to her anymore. She had helped him to have true erectile dysfunction. Soon Damian Cross was dragged out and he was bleeding. The smell of fresh injury filled the entire hall. Kayden Diego and Justin would surely have been rea
Damian Cross blinked his eyes several times to be sure he wasn't in a dream land. He stared at the woman in front of him as fear gripped him. He tried to move back to possibly hide himself but he discovered he couldn't even lift a foot. This is Lily Cruz, she's not dead? Damian Cross felt his heart was beating very fast. He was shivering. Though still having his mouth taped, he knew his lips were shivering like being in a cold harmattan morning. So it wasn't Harold Aaron who was behind his abduction like he thought? Ahhh no wonder the fellow has so much of a confidence to misbehave. He probably had discovered that Lily was still alive a long time ago. Damian Cross stood with his eyes wide opened and stared like a stricken lunatic. Anna Brook suddenly felt a drop of pea in her undies. Her whole body was covered in goosebumps. She was sweating already. Her heart beat almost skipped. Lily was alive? Lily stood and watched their surprised gazes and how it turned into panic
Justin narrowed his brow and gave her a scrutinizing stare. She is definitely Anna Brook, the lordess friend who was helping her satisfy her husband. She doesn't look like a good person. Why would the lordess never discover her personality? Justin stare was filled with a cold aura that Anna Brook almost shivered, at his gaze. She unconsciously stepped back and held her mother-in-law's hands. The latter was also breathing heavily from the young man's stare. "If I had passed through the securities, would I have been able to hear and record your arguments?And know that you murdered Lily Cruz?"Justin finally answered. But none of the two women could answer him. Standing up abruptly, Justin ordered "Come along willingly or I bundle you like a stack of papers. Make your choice, I don't have time to waste on silly things like you" The two women started moving backwards. Obviously they are thinking how they'll escape. Justin just watched them and gave a wicked grin "Someone come, tie
A kind of anger rose within her. Why would Damian Cross be laughing when he saw her parents merged into the wind and disappeared? He should be sympathizing with her but he was doing the opposite. Was he happy that her parents had disappeared? But before she could reprimand him for his behaviors, she saw him bring out a dagger and was going to drive it into her throat when she started screaming: "No!, no!!noooo!!!" Then she woke up with a start and saw that Kayden Diego was holding her tightly in his arms. She was sweating profusely and her heart was beating very fast. She was shivering and held Kayden Diego as if she was going to melt into him. "A nightmare again?" Kayden Diego asked. It's really been a long time since she last had this kind of a nightmare. He was now tapping her gently on her back like a little baby that was being coaxed. Lily started crying. She snuggled herself into his chest as if he was going to vanish out of her sight. Cheng Bo cuddled her and allo
This was exactly what Damian Cross wanted. Seeing Harold Aaron's unpleasant stare, he chuckled "What's in there that you don't understand!" Damian Cross inquired and was obviously happy putting the fellow where he should be, at his call and beckon. "You fired me Damian? I worked with Lily's father and I also worked with boss Lily. None of them had any issues with me but you who just took over the company a few days ago have fired all the old staff and today you did the same to me?" Harold Aaron seethed. Damian Cross felt a little uncomfortable with what Harold Aaron said. If a company was going to make progress, one shouldn't discard the old hands, especially those who knew the in's and outs of the company. And Harold Aaron was like an asset. But his ego would not make him bulge. If Harold Aaron can condescend and beg him he might decide to retain him otherwise, he should go. He'll surely find someone to fill the vacuum. He doesn't want Harold Aaron to feel he was indispensable.
He froze when he saw her. He blinked several times and pinched himself. He wanted to be sure his wishes had come true. He really was seeing his boss? Lily saw the shock on his face and stepped out completely from behind Kayden Diego. She didn't say anything, just folded her arms behind her. She looked wronged and seemed very unhappy. "Boss Lily!!"Harold Aaron screamed out in joy and went to her, hugging her amidst so much excitement. He was not supposed to hug her, but he was too excited and threw caution to the air. "Let go my woman" Kayden's voice was cold. He won't tolerate it even though he knew Harold Aaron was too excited at seeing Lily Cruz and his happiness had made him hug her out of premonition. But he won't allow it to last beyond a few seconds. Harold Aaron immediately withdrew and bowed apologetically. He passed a glance at Kayden Diego and at Lily before dismissing the questions popping in his head. He would come to that later but now he was happy seeing his bos
"Harold Aaron!!" He could be more reliable than anyone else. "My assistant. He's more reliable and knows the in's and outs of the Cruz cooperation" Lily said. "Tell me a little about him?" Kayden asked. "Harold Aaron worked with my dad for years. After Damian killed my parents, I took over the company and retained Harold Aaron to be my assistant. He was faithful while being by my father's side and so he was to me too" Lily explained briefly. Kayden was pleased with Lily's analysis. That Harold Aaron might be just who they needed right at that moment. "He will be with us soon," Kayden declared and stood up. He had to inform Justin to pass a message to the bodyguards and assign them their first job. "Do you need his contacts?" Lily asked. At least with his contacts, it would be easier to track him down. Shaking his head, Kayden replied "There's no need" and went out of the door. In the Cruz cooperation, Damian was furiously stamping his feet on the floor. Harold Aaron had dared
