I knocked softly on the door before pushing it open. He was seated behind his large desk, eyes fixed on the screen. He glanced up at me as I sauntered in with his coffee. His rigid features softened as soon as our eyes met and his pursed mouth stretched into a heart-felt smile.

"Looks like I surprised you," I noted, returning his smile.

"I couldn't sense you coming," he leaned back in his chair, adopting a relaxing posture. He popped his shoulders and heaved a sigh all the while grinning at me.

"Well, you were too taken with your second wife to notice my arrival," I feigned jealousy and set the tray in front of him. He grasped my wrist and made me sit on his lap.

"Is my first wife jealous?" he wrapped his strong arms around my waist and asked.

"Maybe," I replied, curious to know his reply. He held my chin in response and turned my face to look at him.

"My wife should know then that she is the sole owner of my heart and that I am too smitten by her to look at another," his lips

    "Mum, why you smiling at yourself?" my little one snapped me out of my daydream. My confused gaze flicked to her. She was on the bed, judging me with a frown. I darted myself a glance in the mirror and realized I was indeed smiling. I was thinking about the promise he made me in his study. "I am happy, that's why," I told her honestly and resumed combing my wet hair. "Why are you happy?" She asked, curious."Because....." I was interrupted by Zavion. "Because very soon you are going to have a little brother that you always wanted," Zavion sauntered into the room and stated. I lifted a brow at him in question. Where did that come from? I wasn't even pregnant yet. He reached Penny and kissed her cheek before turning towards me. The way his expression changed from a caring father to a hungry predator. This double-faced man. A roguish smirk played at the edge of his lips as he stalked toward me. "Right, babe?" he put an arm around my waist and tugged me closer. "Wow..I'll h

  • Hiding From My Possessive Alpha   Date Among The Woods

    The car came to a smooth halt outside the giant mouth of woods. I frowned in confusion not sure why I was here but then it struck me. Perhaps he had set another date on the top of his favorite hill. I didn't mind it. I had enjoyed my time with him there back then. A man who I knew was working for Zavion opened the door for me. I gathered my skirt and climbed off the car. A gentle wind caressed my face, bringing a smile to my lips. The man bowed to me and politely asked me to follow him. I nodded and fell in the line behind him. He led me into the woods. The forest was silent except for cricket's chirpings and crunching of leaves under our shoes. The path opened to a lake. I felt my eyes go wide in awe. It was a lake straight from some fairyland. Starred with countless luminescent glass lamps, it looked stunning. Feast to the eyes. A smile pulled at my lips. That's quite romantic. But wait a second. I slightly squinted when realised they were patterned into a sentence. YOU LIGHT UP

    I showed him the video of Penny when she had taken her first step. I had a separate folder where I had stashed away all her childhood pictures for my old boring days. Currently, we were in his treehouse and I was showing him all of Penny's childhood pictures. In the current video, her round chubby face was split into a wide grin as she lumbered toward me. Her smile carried a sense of triumph. This was her first walk. My eyes teared up as I reminisced about the day. I recounted to him, "She didn't give up until she reached me."I glanced at him for a response only to find him completely taken by the video. Tears in his eyes, a proud smile on his lips. A mixture of awe and guilt overtook me. He should have been there. He should have experienced these moments with me. Penny is his first child too. I had snatched something so precious from him in my stupidity. I felt an immense sense of shame. Tears leaped down my eyes. And to think I was planning to hide Penny from him for the rest o

    "Hey, wake up," his deep, bedroom voice interrupted my dreamless slumber. I heard him but pretended to be asleep. I was too lazy right now. "Baby, get up," he said. I yelped as he pinched my waist. Annoyance filled me. I flung my eyes open to shoot him my deadliest glare. He chuckled in response. "Get your sexy ass moving. We have to go somewhere," he reached around and spanked my ass. With a mischievous grin lingering on his lips, he got to his feet. I looked out the window it was still dark. I gave him a confused look. "Where?" I asked. "To the lake," he held out his hand for me. I lifted a brow of fake suspicion at him. "Are you planning to drown me?" I asked. "Maybe," he smirked. I rolled my eyes before taking his hand and getting up.I picked my gown to wear but he said it wasn't necessary. It was still dark and too early for humans to roam the woods. So we strolled out of his tree house in all our naked glory. He led me down the stairs. Even though most of the candles wer

    We returned home mated and marked. Zavion drove us home and he didn't let go of my hand during the whole ride. "How do you think the family will take to the news?" I eyed him, a little nervous. His gaze was fixed ahead on the road before he turned his face to look at me. "I am sure they will be ecstatic," he flashed me a gentle sweet smile. I smiled back, assured now. His effect on me was astounding. All my nervousness was put to rest merely by his smile. For someone who had lots of trust issues, it was so easy to trust him. I glanced at his mark and felt pride swelling in my heart. "Ain't you going to hide it?" I nodded towards the mark. He already figured out what I was talking about. "Nope. I am going to show it to the world. Back off bitches, I am claimed," he said mischievously and gave me a lopsided grin. I chuckled. It's very rare of him to speak so casually. But fortunately, I was seeing his play side more often. Ain't I one lucky woman? He is so charming when he smiles.

    "Alpha invited us to your mating ceremony," Hannah revealed, surprising me. I didn't have the faintest idea that he was planning this. He never said a word about bringing them here. Hannah, Christa, and I were alone in my room chatting away. I was exhilarated to finally see them. How long had it been? It felt like ages ago. We were no longer clueless teens whose only concern was to get good scores in class. We had matured in every sense. Hannah was a healer now. I felt so proud of her. As for Christa, the old woman looked just like she did five years ago. Nothing had changed about her. "He said he doesn't want you to feel alone on your marking day," Hannah added. I smiled. That was so him. No one could guess a very thoughtful soul is residing behind his cold facade. "You've got an amazing mate, you know. He loves you immensely," Hannah stated, sounding happy for me. I felt relieved to know she held no resentment toward him. They had even forgiven Zavion for the tortures he pu

    ZAVIONI cannot stop looking at her even if I want to. She is just so pretty. I tried but I just cannot stop obsessing over her even after I finally have her. My eyes follow her everywhere she goes with my feet urging me to chase after her like a puppy. She is magnetic. I am drawn to her like a moth to the flame. If it was for me, I would have glued us together for life so that she always remain by my side. But I suspect she would like the idea."You could have at least smiled," she remarked with a sigh as we sauntered down the hallway, hand in hand. I realized it a little too late. "It didn't occur to me," I shrugged. Now that I think about it, I should have said something to him. I've been told that my resting face is quite intimidating. I have a resting bitch face. I don't like being likened to a bitch. I would prefer having a lion face over this if you ask me. "Talk to him and let him know you are not disappointed with him. Sometimes, showing is the best way of expressing, yeah?

    We stopped by a restaurant to have our lunch. The mansion was all furnished but didn't have groceries. So we had to hit a restaurant. I ordered food for both of us while he sat back and observed me like always. "I am having a hunch," he spoke and leaned forward. I raised my brow in question. "This time I've put a baby inside you," the corner of his lips tugged up into a smirk. I blushed. We never used protection so it was quite a possibility. "You can't smell it?" I queried. A thoughtful look on his face as he raised his gaze to the wall behind me. "It's too early for that," he explained to me. Made sense considering we did it not even a couple of hours ago."Sooo..you want a boy or a girl?" I asked, curious. He brought his eyes to mine."Triplets," he grinned. I rolled my eyes. I should have known. "Yeah, it's easy to say this when you are not pushing them out," I responded. Birthing an alpha kid is no child's play."Looks like Penny gave you a really hard time," he noted wit

    THIRD POV"Where is she?" Aaron hollered thunderously in the hall. His bloodshot eyes were clouded with madness. His booming voice bounced off the lofty walls, prompting members to rush out in a state of alarm. "What happened?" Cora enquired when she noticed her youngest's chaotic state. Ron power-walked towards her and held her shoulders. "Where is she, mom?" he demanded angrily with an undertone of desperation. Cora, clueless glanced over Nora who looked just as confused. She shifted her gaze back to her son who seemed to be on the verge of losing his control. "Who?" Cora questioned."Sylvia. She is gone," he told her. A hint of pain accompanied his tone. Cora's eyes widened in shock."How?" she asked, still shocked. Ron released her and turned around to look at other family members. His enraged eyes swept around the hall, taking in everyone. "Who helped her leave?" he growled like a wounded lion. Everyone was shocked to see this side of his. Ron was never the type to hold ange

    SYLVIAHis tongue rolled inside me, eliciting a gentle sigh straight from my bosoms. I reciprocated, greedy for more and more of him. I wanted to drown myself in his kisses and touch. I was aware of the consequences. He was drunk and might not remember anything of it come tomorrow. But..but I wasn't able to move away. I let him hold me by my waist. I let him pull me on his lap and invade my mouth completely. How could I not? Every inch of mine was yearning for his touch. I felt alive again as he squeezed and kneaded me. He grabbed a fistful of my hair and deepened our kiss. I moaned in his mouth, relishing his dominating side. My hands of their own begin fumbling with the buttons of his shirt. I needed him inside me at this very moment. I needed him to fill me up. Before I could undo his last button, he threw me on the bed. I blinked at him as he crawled over me, his eyes never straying from mine.His orbs were caught in the blazes of lust, his expression was of a feral animal starvi

    EVANGELINAI heard him lashing out in the phone from the door. He sounded furious. From what I gathered, Ron had marked Sylvia. The news had left me just as shocked and worried for the woman. I should be the last person to sympathize with her after what she did. But try as I may I cannot forget the sorrow I had witnessed in her eyes when we met the last time. She had realized her mistake. Punishing her more will only batter her already torn soul. "I don't care why you did it, Ron but don't you forget she is a Kessler now. If you harmed that girl unnecessarily. You will have to face my wrath," Zavion warned Ron in a serious tone. Pride swells in my heart. Zavion had no fondness for Sylvia but he was also not the type to sit on the fence when his family is being persecuted. Sylvia was a family now.We honestly had a long discussion about her before he decided her punishment. I tried to make him see her perspective. Being a mother, I should hate her the most but I don't.

    AaronHer soft snores rang through the room all night long. How did she manage to fall asleep on the cold, hard floor is beyond me. I wish I could say I slept as well as her but that would be a big fat lie. Sleep had escaped me. I just tossed and turned in the bed, struggling to not think about her. Not long ago, she used to sleep here with me. We would cuddle all night long. So different from where we were today. She was sleeping so peacefully and I couldn't help but feel bitter about it. Does she not miss my body next to hers? How easy it was to fall asleep for her without me. I tried to sleep but I just couldn't. My wolf and my body were urging me to carry her back to my bed and cuddle with her but I denied it. Never in this lifetime, I was going to sleep with her in one bed again. In the morning when I got up from my bed, she was still sleeping. As though she had not slept her entire life. I glared at her, contemplating pouring a bucket of cold water on her. I was already irrita

    AARON"Why did you do this?" Mom demanded, looking furious. I knew this was coming. Everyone was looking at me waiting for an answer. Why did I do this? To teach her a good lesson."She is my mate. I can mark her if I want to," I replied dryly. My mother's gaze flickered to the unconscious Sylvia in my arms before backing up to my face. She looked unconvinced. "You have marked her to make her life miserable," Mom corrected me. I clenched my jaw. "Alpha has banished her. What more do you want?" Nora sounded equally mad. A scowl was plastered across her face, her eyes spitting fire at me. Everyone was mad at me. I had no idea why were they all defending this ungrateful betrayer."I will not have more discussion about it," I gritted out and stormed off to my room. I felt their eyes stabbing my back as I power-walked toward my room. I glanced down at her. She looked lifeless. The blood was trickling down her neck in a thin line where I had marked her, I didn't bother to seal it back. I

    ZAVIONI let my mouth trail over her delicate belly. The warmth of my breath raising goosebumps all over her silky, rosy-white skin. Seeing her body's response to my touch pleases me to no end. I love how she shivers involuntarily every time I brush my lips against her flat tummy. It's too flat for my liking. I was going to fill it up with my baby. The thought was followed by the painful memories of Eva's miscarriage. The incident inflicted deep pain on both of us. She acts fine but I know she is still reeling from that. I have caught her crying alone a few times. She never cries in front of me. Perhaps, because she doesn't want to stress me out. I never leave a chance to let her know what an amazing person is. I love the way she looks but what has me on my knees for her is the way she is; So beautiful, so amazing. But she was getting better now. Healing day by day. This vacation was doing her good. We were in bed since morning, too lazy to get out and too much in love to lay still.

    SylviaHe wants me dead. Night flew by but I was still stuck in that moment. I thought him hating me would hurt me the most but him wanting me dead just felt even worse. It still hurts so bad. It was like thousand scorching needles were constantly being jabbed into my heart. The pain was unbearable. He will never forgive me, let alone love me. He wants me dead and I want the same now. What's the point of living without him anyway. It was clear he wasn't going to love me ever again, what will I do with a life that won't have him in it? I hoped Zavion would give me a death sentence. I hoped he would give me the most miserable death so that Aaron feels at ease. If my death gives him happiness, he will get it. My stomach lurched at this point and I crouched forward to puke. I retched but nothing came out. I had already committed a few times since last night. My cell and I were stinking of my vomit and piss. I was at my worst. I slumped against the wall and closed my eyes. My head was sp

    DIMITRYI watched her from the shadow as she talked away with Nora. They were perched in the front porch of mansion. Her read head bobbing adorably as she carried out the conversation with a hint of enthusiasm. They were talking about ice creams. I smiled, noting my mate has a thing for ice cream. I've been trying to get closer to her but she always shoots me down. She looks so comfortable every time I try to engage in a conversation that I end up dropping it.I don't know why she was acting so distant. Does she not know I am her mate? Does she not like me? The thought was scary. I was never keen on finding my mate. In fact unpopular opinion but I believed that having a mate would be a hassle for my carefree life. I loved swimming in pussies and one wouldn't be enough to satisfy me. But my thoughts took a drastic turn when I locked eyes with her. At first, I didn't realize she was my mate as I couldn't smell her scent due to the cold. But the attraction I felt for her was instant. She
