"Some one so insignificant?" Cameron arched up her brow at him."Sorry it came off that way"She wasn't getting what he was trying to say. If this was a new flirting method, he was certainly not getting her attention. She had nothing to say to him."Do you want something?" She was already bored of his conversation. The only thing Cameron wanted was for him to leave so she could go back to her list, it was almost covering an A4 paper. His eyes fell on the paper on his body and she inched the paper closer to her body."What book do you have in mind?""Oh I didn't come for books but you can have any if you want and I will pay""Wow! For someone insignificant, you sure want to spend on someone you barely know"Jacob exhaled. He didn't mean to sound like a show off or anything. He was just nervous. She was the first girl he had felt such strong emotion after his wedding was called off. His bride had left him for another man and he only found out at the altar. She was decent enough to call
Ben glanced around the old Library, it needed a lot of remodeling but he wasn't going to say anything. He was going to keep that to himself. Cameron may start to feel bad and he didn't want that, as long as she was being paid at the library then she needed to keep her job till she found something better.Dropping his gaze, locked eyes with Cameron, she was still embarrassed, he had seen her listing to seduce the ever Alpha Liam."You don't have to be embarrassed""Who told you I am?" She lied. The embarrassment was killing her and she wanted the ground to open and swallow her, that way she would be better. Ben was going to judge her and she didn't want that. Cameron wanted to be seen as the innocent and sweet girl but Ben didn't care if she was innocent and sweet or not. He loved her whichever way she was, the only thing Ben cared about was seeing her happy, the smile on her face that Phoenix always talked about."I know that look, your face is red like tomatoes""You are attacking m
"Have you ever been in love before?" Cameron blurts. Ben gawked at her, where did that strength come from? Cameron was always the tongue-tied girl who would choose to think carefully before talking. "Where did you get that kind of mind?""You underestimate me""Do I?""Are you in love with someone?" Ben was thinking what to say to her. He was in love with her but he was killing his feelings for her just so she could be happy. "Yes"Cameron's eyes widened. She wanted to hear all the details. "Tell me who it is""Is… is Phoenix!" The word came right out of his mouth"Phoenix?" She was Bewildered. Sure she had hooked them up but it was just for the game night. She wasn't for him to fall for her in just a night."You are in love with my best friend"Ben nodded his head. That was wrong but that was the only way besides Phoenix was not going to know what he said about her. He was sure girls like Phoenix wouldn't even look at her. The other day at his house, he heard her talking to a man
Phoenix had left Cameron back at the store. She had errands to run for a party. Her mother had an event with some women in her house and she was in charge of organizing the entire hall. Holiday season was fast approaching and her mother was the head of the women's association in their town.Phoenix always had the holiday spirit going, it was another way she could sign off huge chunks of royalty from her frugal mother. As long as it was the holidays, her mother was ready to empty her bank account so as not to appear like a Scrooge in front of those women. Keeping her position as the head of the women's association mattered a lot to her and Phoenix always helped her preserve that spot. She had a lot of rivals who were out to snatch that position away from her mother. One of whom was Eve.Eve joined the women's association last year just to get more popular among socialites in the city. Phoenix didn't want her to be part of that group but the women's association could not say no to a new
Cameron tapped her feet for ten more times as she went over her list for the tenth time. She needed to make sure everything went according to plan. It was December, the holiday season. This wasn't the time for nachos and bears, it was a season of sensuous pleasures, love and wine. How she loved wine. The first time she tasted the sweet red liquid was in junior grade in highschool. She went on a date with her colleague on valentine's day. He brought a bottle of wine to their date. Cameron wasn't sure if he wanted to get her drunk but he made her drink till she couldn't stand. Good thing, Phoenix came to her rescue. She had told her about her date and as usual, her overprotective friend was sitting right in her car.The doorbell rings getting Cameron moving towards the door, it was the delivery man, she had ordered some decorations for her house. Cameron sign's on the documents, grabbing the box, she slammed her door. Was Liam going to decorate his house? She dropped the box down and
Kim was jaw dropped but he was quick to close his mouth. Liam wanted to terminate his contract because of Cameron. The same woman he claimed he wasn't in love with. What was going on with him? He hasn't met Cameron but with Jacobs description, he would describe her as a beautiful and enchanting woman. She had an innocent look and was cute as well. That was not Liam's taste. He was even surprised when Liam told him that he had approached Cameron at that party. She turned out to be a virgin as he suspected which should have been a turn off to Liam but it wasn't. Liam went on to do a lot of things to her, he loved every inch of her body and just like that, he was obsessing over her. He asked her if she was his mate but Liam said she wasn't. Could he be her mate? That was the only explanation to all of these and the reason for Liam's obsession for her. He was overly possessive and protective of her yet he was denying being in love with her."You want to terminate our contract with Jacob
By 5pm, everyone was gone from the office and so Liam had to leave as well. It was the holidays so he had to tell his workers to go home and stay with their families. Like Lisa, some of them had dates to attend and someone to share this special day with someone but he had none. Liam has never had anyone around for holidays. Kim would invite him to join them at home but Liam would turn down his request, he would prefer to stay alone with Rosa than to be anywhere else. Rosa would always sit in the old armchair staring at the fireplace and sipping her hot coffee. His house was boring and plain during the holidays but Rosa wouldn't dare say a word to him. She knew what the holidays meant for him and so she stayed silent reminiscing about life in the pack during her youthful age.Rosa was cooking in the kitchen when Liam arrived, he wasn't himself. The conversation with Kim had got him thinking about Cameron a lot and he just wanted to see her. "Do you need something Alpha?""No, did any
With Cameron around for the holidays, Rosa was setting up the Christmas tree and lighting up the house with color and mistletoe. She had brought life to the house and soon every corner of the house felt like the holiday season. There was a smile on Rosa' face but it still didn't reach her eyes. Liam was acting so strange and that got her even more worried. He may be her little boy but she was aware he was up to know good. Liam has kicked against the holidays for years, he even hates the mention of it and would never want her hanging around the holiday present during this season. Now he was hanging trees and choosing the meals to prepare. Having Liam in the kitchen felt like having the devil standing over the gas cooking. He was smiling from ear to ear, creeping Rosa out. She couldn't stop staring at him, only if she could read the lines on his face then maybe she would realize that he was up to know good. This was just a fantasy that Cameron would have to live through during the hol
Sitting on the window sill as she stared out the window, Cameron was disheartened that Liam lied to her, deep down she wanted to give him another chance but when the fear of having to get hurt over again crossed her mind she knew she had to reconsider having to suffer her poor heart. "A penny for your thoughts?" Cecilia asked as she popped her head through the open doorway."No""You have been staring out the window like this for months, you should reconsider him you know""How can you ask me to reconsider him after all he did to me""The truth is about the moonstone, every Alpha of every pack always has a replica, a fake moonstone is always kept around to confuse the likes of Tim and in this case, Liam has been the real keeper of the real moonstone while the rest of the pack are with the fake moonstone to deceive thieves or those who will want to Insult the moon goddess. Liam saw the opportunity to help you to get close to you and so he did what he had to do". Cameron doesn't say a
When Lisa heard all that happened with Liam and Cameron, she was not happy that they were still not back together. It took a lot for them to be back together and just when she thought that they were finally going to be back together, Cameron thought Liam was deceiving but it wasn't anything like that. Cameron didn't give him a chance to explain how the fake moonstone came about, there was so much she didn't know even though she was the leader of her pack.Liam has been down for weeks and has refused to return to the company. Beta Kim was the one handling everything in his absence while he sat in the house trying to figure out a way to earn her forgiveness. It was something that he now had control over since she changed, he just couldn't predict or tell what it was she wanted.When a knock comes on her door, she glances at her Wall clock, Kim was here earlier than expected. With a warm smile on her face, she took long steps towards the door and hastily opened the door only to see Josh
"You can hold it there but you will be only holding onto nothing" "What do you mean?" TyrionTim was furious as he glared at Liam"What you are having with you is a fake moonstone""What?" He scoffed. "Is this the best you can come up with Cameron? A fake moonstone""You don't believe it is a fake one?""How can it be fake and be kept away in a precious place""You don't believe and think that this is a joke" "Yes, it is, if this moonstone is a fake one then what are you doing here?""Toss it on the ground"Right before everyone's eyes, he tosses the moonstone and it lands on the groundbreaking which surprised everyone, especially Cameron. With a single look into his eyes realized that once again he deceived her, he knew that the moonstone was a fake but still led them to believe that what they had was a real one. For a moment she couldn't bring her mouth to talk as she stared at what was once the real moonstone before looking at him as he took out the real moonstone as Bullock was
Cameron kept walking into the forest with Liam right behind her. She knew that he was still staring at her butt but tried to ignore him. She could feel his gaze burning through her and was about to turn to him when her eyes fell on Tyrion, Tim and Bullock kissing. Her feet shuffled around detritus and she quickly dragged Liam down which only made him hold her tightly."What is it?""Look at them, they are lovers, don't you think it has been a long time based on your experience?" He glared at her, he understood perfectly that she was mad at him but when she kept comparing him to having so many things, it just pissed him off and that wasn't something that he wanted."You don't have to always bring up my wrong you know"Her eyes softened, this time it wasn't intentional but was the only way to explain the situation."I'm sorry but that was the only way to explain the situation""I am sorry for what I did to you alright and to answer your question, yes"Anger seeped through her as she lo
"You should be more careful sweetheart"Cameron rolled her eyes about to stand up but he held her firmly so she couldn't stand up."What are you doing? Let me go""Why should I let you go?" Liam was about to press his lips closer to her and kiss her when she quickly pushed him off and stood up. "This is the reason why I shouldn't trust you""Come on honey, you know you wanted this as well" "In your dreams because that's something that will never happen" She was about to walk away when he held her hand."How are you so sure?""Of course, I am sure about this?" Liam pulled her into his arms and she struggled throwing a death glare at him. "Let me go now, Liam""I told you that if you fall right into my arm, I won't let you go" He stated matter of factly which only made her frown, She has not heard any ridiculous thing in her life. He has not said a word like that to her in the past and not now. They only started getting together recently and if it wasn't for this mission, she wouldn't
He arched up his brow at her daring her to complete the statement and he will not hesitate to kiss her until she forgives him."I have not always been like this you know, I had a tough childhood"She kept quiet, not able to move her lips, she remembered when Rosa mentioned this. She was interested in finding it all about him but now things were different and she wasn't interested at all about him, the moonstone was all she cared about yet she just couldn't speak up."My father was loved by my mother dearly and she always wanted the best for him""Just as how I did?""Yes, my father still hated my mother and cheated on him, the last one of which was when he killed her. That made me think that love was just a joke and I shouldn't burden my heart with falling in love"So many emotions run through her as she looks at him, her eyes are softened. "I'm sorry Liam" she whispered and he nodded his head. She was sincere with her feelings and he loves that about her. Cameron wasn't the sort of w
"What do you mean?" He asked in a low tone."I don't want to deal with a complicated man, yes I am in love with you and perhaps I may never stop falling in love with you but I want you to know that I am going to kill this feeling for you because I am tired""Lisa" A tear escaped his eyes and he ran his hand through his face embarrassed to be seen crying. As he attempts to touch her again, she moves away from him. "Don't touch me" She stepped backward. "We can't keep going back and forth all the time, I will make mistakes Liam and probably I will do something that will hurt you but what will you do, are you going to hate me for the rest of your life? Are you going to keep malice and I will have to apologize? Does your ego always have to get in the way"He frowned, he had not liked her indicating that his ego was getting in the way of him ever forgiving him or even apologizing."Give me another chance and I will be a different man""What difference are you going to make?""Just trust m
Lisa was preparing some waffles when the telephone rang, she tensed up as she stared at the phone. She sighs, stomping her feet as she moves to pick up the telephone."Hello"The person on the other end kept silent which made her almost immediately exhale deeply. She wasn't taking a moment to think about the strange calls that had been coming into her phone for a while now. It had been this way ever since Josh attacked her, she would receive suspicious calls on her line. Glancing around the house for a moment, the doorbell rang, and she breathed out taking a moment to calm her nervousness. For some unknown reason, she was beginning to feel strange.As she yanked the door wide, she almost jumped, seeing Kim standing by her door with some roses in his hand."What are you doing here?" She looked past him trying to make certain he wasn't lost."Lisa""Are you lost?" Anger seeped through him seeing him standing outside her door."Can you let me in?""Why should I let you in?""I don't know
He stood there staring at them, lost for words to say, he already knew that Cameron was very nice to Kim but never saw them talking to each other. That made him feel guilty. Earlier on, he noticed the way she was talking to Rosa. They had gotten back together once again and he was the only one who seemed not to be able to get along with her. "I will see you around" She nodded her head as she hastily left, he had a feeling she was running away from him so he wouldn't try to make her stay the night over in his place. Liam arched up his brow, he had a feeling that TyrionTim knew about his presence but was purposely ignoring him. "It was nice to see you again Cameron"He could imagine smiling at him before walking away while Kim stared at her till she was out of sight. "What tickles your fancy?""You shouldn't act like the jealous boyfriend you know""I am not!" Liam stated but his anger got the best of him which only made Kim laugh at how his Alpha turns red when he was jealous. That
