Karen.We returned to town the next day. We went straight to Oscar's residence. I was given a room on the first floor where the live-in workers slept. It was comfortable but not as luxurious as having an apartment all to myself, but it was much better than my old apartment. I also knew I was safe. My safety trumped luxury anytime.As I sat on the bed in my new room, I began to wish we were still in the house that was in the woods. Although I was hiding there after having a close-to-death experience, I liked that Oscar and I were in the same place. I had noticed his attitude changed towards me the moment we arrived at his house in the city. He was a bit formal and less caring. I didn't know if it was for show or if that was his new attitude towards me, but I decided not to let it bother me. I wondered how my life would be, looking onward.I remained in my room all day. Soon it was dinner time, and a young man came to call me."Miss Karen, you will be having dinner with the family tonigh
Karen. When we got to Oscar's room, all we did was watch comedy movies. Comedy seemed to be his favourite genre. For someone that was always serious, it seemed unbelievable. He was also a sort of comedian himself because Oscar mimicked his mother and Tabitha while we laughed. He wasn't even angry. With the way he had reacted towards his mother, it would have been fair to think he would be fuming in his room. Though he was irritated by his mother's actions, he wasn't angry with her. I needed to understand what his mother had meant by a mate. It was so weird and sounded out of this world to me. Usually, a man meets a girl, they fall in love, get married and begin to have children. In her case, she had chosen someone for him because he didn't seem like he was ready, but instead of a wife, she used the word mate. It sounded like something animals do. I knew he was a werewolf but did that qualify him as an animal? Maybe the supernatural kind. I was just too curious to let it pass, so I d
Karen. The day at his office felt weird. After the whole issue with the werewolves, I never imagined that I would be able to return there. Everything was normal except for the fact that I remained in the same space Oscar was. I had to sit in his office all day. Tabitha kept coming to check on Oscar. She looked contemptuous every time she saw me on the couch, minding my business. The woman was trying too damn hard to get Oscar's attention. He knew but wasn't willing to give her the attention she sought, and she refused to take the hint. "Is she going to sit here all day?" Tabitha finally asked.Oscar looked at me and then looked at her."Are you going to keep barging into my office all day?" He asked her, and she was silent. I bet she didn't see that coming. Maybe she thought Oscar was so hooked he would do anything for her. News flash, did she ever check the meaning of player? "I came for our usual meeting," she said to him, and he dropped the pen."Your services are no longer need
Oscar. I knew there was something weird about the cafe the instant we stepped in, but I didn't want to spook Karen. She felt at home in the place, and the workers seemed kind to her. When we finished our meal, I asked Karen to wait for me in the car, so I could see the owner. The supernatural aura of the cafe baffled me. The manager was quite hostile towards me, which indicated she knew what I was. I could deduce this simply because no human in her right mind would be hostile towards me. I was the richest man in the country. I owned all the big businesses in the city. That city owed its survival and its commerce to my pack, and I was single. Every human woman, except for Karen, threw themselves at me. But this particular lady was very hostile. When I got to the owner's office, I realised why. They were witches. Although the covens were eradicated by the Hunters, there were survivors, and all of them either skipped town or went into hiding. I had just walked into one of their hiding
Karen. Oscar seemed a bit off when he returned to the car. I was hoping he would share what was bothering him without asking, but as things were, I knew it was best I kept my curiosity to myself. He had that 'do not disturb' look on his face. "I was hoping to spend the evening at the park," he finally spoke, and I smiled. Maybe there wasn't any trouble. I might have just been reading meanings to his facial expression. Besides, I couldn't know how he felt. The park was empty when we got there. It was as if the people had got wind of our arrival and cleared out. It was a private park; therefore, I suspected Oscar might have booked ahead. I wonder why he would go through this much trouble for his plaything. I kept my remarks to myself, hoping not to spoil the mood. He was a big shot. Maybe he didn't want to be disturbed. "Have you ever spent time in a private park before?" he asked me as he took off his suit and dumped it in the backseat of the car. He did the same with his tie and un
Oscar. Walking in the park with Karen was amazing. She was a fun person to be around. It was amazing to see how carefree she was. Judging by her situation and her status, she still managed to look on the bright side. If only she knew the magnitude of the mess she was in, maybe she wouldn't be so carefree. We returned to my house after our long walk, and I felt a bit tired. It wasn't the walk that stressed me out. What stressed me out was the information I had gotten from Karen's aunt. To think that John Hunter was looking for his daughter was a huge deal. My uncle was already clear that he wouldn't allow me to bring the pack into this, and I had promised McCain that I would kill Karen if she realised his fears. I had also told Karen that I would only protect her for the duration of our contract. The way things were, Karen was certainly going to die. My decisions and actions were only postponing the day. I decided to take Karen to the club the next day after work. She looked amaz
Oscar. I had a very disappointing night with Stephanie. I knew it wasn't her fault, but I wasn't happy. I just asked her to leave. She seemed to have had a good time because she left me her number and a kiss on a note. I doubted if I would be using it. Karen tucking Joey's number away in her purse baffled me. I barged into her room the moment Stephanie left and woke her up. "Where is it?" I asked her, but there was still sleep in her eyes. "Good morning Oscar," she finally managed. I waited for her to wake up fully. "Has your guest left?" She asked with concern, and I was shocked that none of what I did bother her. The girl had thick skin. "Where is the business card you got last night?" I asked her again. "It is in my purse," she replied. "Let me have it," I ordered and to my surprise, she shook her head. "Let me have it, Karen or our deal is off," I warned. " I guess I should start packing to leave then," she said, and I was dumbfounded. "Give me the number." I
Karen. Walking away from Oscar was the best option. I had overheard him warning someone to reject me when I called. I knew he was talking about Joey. I had to find another way to survive. Thank God I had kept my old apartment. I returned there that morning and got a locksmith to open the door for me. I had lost the key in the apartment Oscar had given me. Everything was still how I had left it. I sat on the ground and looked around me. I remembered I had kept some money under the floorboards. I checked and found the wad of cash there. Instead of sulking, I decided I would go out job hunting again. What I had hidden away could only last me three months in that place. I needed money to survive and take fighting classes. I needed to train myself to fight so I could survive. I intended to call Joey for a job, but I decided to wait a while before I did so. Just so I don't piss Oscar off. I bet he had already offered the blonde a mistress position. I wished them both the best. I felt
OscarI woke up and found Karen still asleep. My mother entered the room without knocking and began to scream.Karen woke up to her screams, and I wondered."Oscar, you are back!' my mother kept saying, Karen was sluggish as usual and soon began to giggle."Sorry I didn't tell you last night, Martha, I wanted to be sure." Karen apologised to her, and she smiled and came to hug me."I missed you so much, son," she said, crying bitterly, " Is everything okay with you?' she asked me, and I nodded."You are blessed, Oscar. Karen never left your side for one second. She cared for you throughout and never complained. Even though the bond was broken," My mother said, and I looked at Karen, who was blushing."We were able to get the witch that Genevieve acquired the potion from. She bitch claimed she was pregnant, so we could not kill her. We later found out she wasn't carrying your child. Unfortunately, someone helped her es
KarenI hid the wounds on my back and my butt and continued to make love to Oscar at night. With every release, the mark's burns increased. His eyes were no longer yellow after two weeks of my treatment. The doctor had thought the sedation was working, and I let him believe so. His mother was hopeful. I knew if I told her what I was doing and she saw the markings on my body, she would stop me, but I felt our connection coming back, and there was nothing that would stop me from continuing my treatment.An extra week passed, and I finally decided that after that night, I will have to let my body heal before I continued. I had cuts and scratch marks all over my body. The pain was searing, and I began to cry after I had finished making love to Oscar and the bite burned terribly. I doubted if I would be able to hide the pain for long. I laid next to him, crying and praying all this wasn't for nothing."Karen!' I heard Oscar's voice, and for a minute
KarenOne whole month passed, and Oscar wasn't any better. I was healed fully by then. I took care of him. I bathe him, fed him, and made sure he was comfortable. The doctor had him sedated most of the time. Gavin and Ruth were constant visitors to the house. Martha had investigated what happened, and she had found out that Genevieve had used a potion on her skin to drive Oscar's wolf insane. Genevieve was publicly disgraced, and Martha had blamed her for his insanity. We had kept the real reason between us. The witch that sold the potion to her was traced and eliminated by Gavin. Genevieve claimed to be carrying Oscar's baby, so we could not kill her. We would have to wait until she gave birth and the baby was tested. Martha made sure she was uncomfortable and had the b*tch locked up in a cell on the settlement.My parents pleaded with me to join them, but I insisted on staying soon they stopped. I was no longer interested in whatever was happening in
Karen"Why Karen, what happened to my baby?' She asked, crying, and I did not know what to say, so I opted to tell her the truth."Ricky Pinewood told me Oscar sent for me, and I followed him to Oscar's office only to find Oscar in his wolf form with Genevieve..." Seeing the image in the eyes of my mind still broke my heart, and I did not have the strength to describe the scene to her."I got angry and came here to pack my things and leave. Oscar was pleading with me, but I had made up my mind, and this happened." I explained, and the woman began to cry."My baby, my poor baby." she wept, looking at her son."What can we do?" I asked her, and she shook her head."You shouldn't have threatened to leave him. You broke the bond when you made up your mind. That is why he is like this. You shouldn't have broken the bond." she said, crying. "if you were a wolf, you wouldn't have been able to break it. I tried to warn Oscar, but he
KarenI honestly could not believe Oscar could allow these people to do this to us. I was still recovering from my surgery. This was unfair. I know we hadn't made love in two weeks, but it was too small a time for him to lose control like this. The man had no self-control, and I dreaded continuing the relationship.Kelly was right. I could never be enough. This was the best time to the walkway. I didn't want to, but I knew walking away was the best option. Oscar went on his knees and begged me desperately. He started to cry like a baby, and I could feel his fear, but this was just too much."let's go to the city together. You can sleep in the old room. I promise to make myself scarce. Please don't leave me. Allow me to prove to you that Genevieve had used something to force my wolf." he said, sounding like a mad man."You are alpha, Oscar. You can command her to say whatever." I pointed out, and he shook his head."Okay, okay, you do the investigation," he said, grove
OscarMy wolf was overpowering me, and I did not know what to do."leave my office, I managed, but there was no authority in my words. My wolf won't let me. Whatever she did had driven him crazy, and he was ready to do whatever it took to relieve himself. Genevieve was in control. It felt like witchcraft."I think your wolf is in disagreement with that." She said, unbuttoning her blouse so that I could get a clear view of her br**sts. Her n**ples were hard as hell, and she began to rub them with her fingers.I tried to get up, but my wolf kept my ass planted on the seat. I was losing the battle. I swore that if she succeeded, I would kill her for this.She spread her legs open, and I saw she had no panties on. She began to pleasure herself. She called on my wolf to ease her needs, and he responded. I was hard, and I shifted on the chair. My wolf had taken over completely. Genieve smiled at me and went on her knees to blow me.My wolf f*
Oscar.Two weeks passed, and no one attacked us. The pack members were agitated, and some of them were angry that I had brought a Hunter descendant to the settlement. They were protesting and asking me to send her back to the city. I didn't know who put them up to it, but the rebellion had gained traction. I had punished so many wolves that I had lost count. I had even cast out a few, but that didn't deter them from continuing. They did not want a Hunter as their luna.My mother told them the truth of what had happened twenty-six years ago, but they did not believe her. They felt she had concocted the story so they could accept Karen. The only pack members that were nice to my mate were the kappas, the iotas and the omegas. They were grateful to her for fighting Marcos, which spared their lives because they were usually the first line of defence.I sat in my office thinking about fixing the discord in my pack, and I had no clue. My mother came to see me a b
Oscar The doctor had patched Karen up, and I took her back to our apartment. They ran some tests on her, and I promised to return for the results.I spent the whole night watching Karen sleep. She had impressed me. I was proud to be her mate. I didn't want the pack to find out about her family so soon, but Marco had spoilt my plans. The next morning, my mother came to my room to check on Karen. I let her know she was still sleeping, and she was glad to hear that she was okay. "Why didn't you tell me that Karen had met her parents and that Isabel was alive?" my mother asked, and I felt horrible that I had kept it from her too. "It had slipped my mind," I responded, and she looked at me funny."Oscar?" she asked, and I didn't know what to say. "How is Isabel?' She asked. "Well, and a lot younger than you," I told her, and my mother gasped. "He turned her?" She asked, almost furious.
OscarI was in my office when I heard the commotion. My pack was under attack. My uncle had linked me to inform me that hunters were on our settlement, and they were attacking my wolves.I ran out to see what was happening, and to my surprise, Marco had led an attack against me."Why, Marco? What is the meaning of this? Can't we talk things out?" I asked him, and he halted the attack. A lot of the pack members were present on the field. Marco smiled at me."You have been sneaky and dishonest, Wilde, and it is time for you to pay?" He said to me, and I was a bit confused."Why? what did I do?"I asked, and he smiled."Where is John Hunter?" he asked, and honestly, I did not know."How am I supposed to know?" I asked him, and he grinned evilly."You should. Arent, you screwing his daughter?" he said, and the pack members gasped at his words. "I see your pack does not know that your mate is John Hunter's daughter. That is bad Alpha Wilde. Why bri
