Knight's POV

" Good morning, Mr. Knight." Bella greeted me immediately when she walked into the office the next day. She wore a large smile and I nodded in response.

" Morning, Bella. I trust you had a lovely night." I replied and looked up from my computer.

" Yes. It was good, these are some of the research I came up with." She dropped a file on my table, and I smiled.

Resourceful, I like." Good, I didn't think that you would do it so fast."

She smiled again, " Well, what can I say? I didn't rise to this position by being lazy." She replied and I nodded.

" I like that." It was good to know that there were still hardworking young people. I flipped the pages of the file and skimmed through them. From the look of things, she did a great job.

" Great, I'll assess this when I return. I have a class." I replied.

She was still standing, and I looked up. " Is there a problem, Bella?" I inquired.

She shook her head as if she wanted to clear her head out of a daze. " Nothing. Your shir

    Aubrey's POV " Hey, babe" Xander pecked me on my forehead immediately I opened the door the next day. We didn't have lectures so I was lounging at home. What are you doing here? " Hi," I replied and bolted the door. He placed his backpack on the table and sighed as he plopped on the sofa." I didn't see you today. How are you doing?" " Fine." " It has been long since we hung out together. There's this new restaurant that I want us to try. Are you up for it?" He inquired. If I say no, chances are that he would pick a fight and make a fuss about it. "Now?" It was almost seven p.m. " Yes. Are you busy? I know you're not." He answered. I've been indoors since morning, so I guess I needed to stretch my legs. " Just give me some minutes to change," I replied, and he nodded. I disappeared into my room and discovered that I didn't know where we were going. " Do I need to dress fancy?!" I shouted. "Kinda." He said, I wore a navy blue dress and paired it with a pair of teardrop earr

He repeated, and I took a step back. What was he doing? If I followed him home, I knew what was going to happen. " I can't." He sighed, " This is not the time to be stubborn." He said. I grew annoyed, " Well, if you had given me a reason why I should follow you, I would be more inclined to listen to you."I replied. He raked his hands through his hair. " Don't make this any more difficult than this. It's simple; this place is unsafe for you."I rolled my eyes, and went to the sofa to sit. He sure knew how to ruin beautiful moments. " I am not going anywhere." I crossed a leg over the other. " Then you leave me with no choice then." He muttered and picked me up, like I weighed nothing. " Put. Me. Down." I muttered through gritted teeth, yet he continued walking to the door. " What if someone sees us li

    Knight's POV "I need some guards to resume tomorrow." I told Josh over the phone. " Are you in danger?" He replied. " Not really, I smelt some rats last night and I have to take care of them." I replied with one hand on the phone and another on the window blinds. " This is serious. I'll send five guards tomorrow. You have to make provision for their stay." He said. " Done, do you have any news for me?" I asked. He sighed, and I knew that he was about to tell me a bad news." There was an attack last night at the mall. A sudden fire that couldn't be traced. It took a while before we could douse the fire." " The arsonists? Were there casualties?" " We didn't catch anyone. No, it was late at night, the patrol wolves didn't see anyone." He replied and I cocked my head. This was an attack. " I'll be there in two days." I replied, and we hung up. " Where are you going to?" Aubrey asked, and I turned. " Its rude to eavesdrop." I replied and she folded her arms over her body. Her

    Aubrey's POV The Next Day, I avoided Mr. Knight like a plague. After trying to get the reason I was a bit sad out of me, he finally got the hint to leave me alone. When he brought me home this morning, we barely spoke a word to each other. I needed space to quell the jealousy that threatened to consume my mind. He didn't belong to me, yet I was always upset at the mention of another woman in his life. Hearing him asking someone to care for a lady made me sick to the stomach. I knew that it wasn't Ellie because he would have called her name, and there and then I took my decision. I walked into class that morning with a banging headache. Lectures were supper to begin at ten a.m, " Hey, babe. it's been long I saw you!" Alexis exclaimed as she grinned from ear to ear when I got to our seat.I rolled my eyes, " Hmm, one would think that I went away for a very long time." I responded an me she chuckled. "What can I say? I've missed you a lot. You weren't replying your messages." She s

    Aubrey's POV " Miss....?" " Aubrey." I replied, after sitting on the chair in his office. " What do you do? Why do you need this job?" He asked, while adjusting his glasses on his nose. I sat up straighter. " I am a student who needs financial support." I replied, it was the half truth, but no one needed to know. " How do you plan to juggle between school work and your job? Being a waitress can be tasking at times. Moreover, the salary can't pay your bills." He said. "I will make do with what I get." I replied. That was my only option because calling my sister was out of the equation." You seem determined, I like you. You can resume on Monday." He said, and I stared at him. Monday was a week away. Did he have the intention not to employ me?" Thank you sir." I replied and walked out of his office, still a bit surprised that he didn't ask for any credentials. I ordered food and took a cab home.My phone rang when I wanted to lay on my bed. Who was out for my peace? " Hey, Matt.

    Knight's POV "Good morning, Dad," Ellie said as she descended downstairs. She yawned slightly."Hey, pumpkin. How are you doing?" I replied as she approached me. She planted a kiss on my cheek while smiling softly. She reminded me of her mother. I shook my head to get rid of the emotions that attempted to resurface after burying them." I'm good, just a bit tired. Where is Uncle Josh?" She asked, as she sat beside me on the sofa, and let out a sigh. We didn't get to sleep early yesterday and we were still awake very early. Sometimes, I wished that I could change her life and also her experience life as a normal teenager. It would have been understandable if she were a male. " He went for a run," I replied and placed my laptop on my lap. I had a meeting with the board of directors in my company which was slated for 8 a.m. "Did you get some sleep last night?" She asked and I shook my head. She gave me a concerned gaze. " And you will be busy throughout today." She added." Yeah," I r

" Why do you look like a cat pissed in your tea?" She attacked me after school one afternoon. " Really, now?" I replied and zipped my bag shut, before standing, and looking at carrying my bottle of water. " Yeah, this has gone on for too long. What's actually going on?" She asked, as we went out of the door, " And don't give your usual excuse of being fine, which we both know is total bullshit."She said. " Wow, it's good to know that you have already concluded. Pray tell me what you think is wrong with me." I replied harshly. Then she waved her hand, " You see this bitch face you are carrying about, it doesn't suit you. Even Xander a complaining about it." I rolled my eyes, " It's good to know that the both of you have been gossiping about me." I replied sarcastically. Alexis gave me a pointed look, " Are you being serious right no

    Aubrey's POV My decision to avoid Mr. Knight had to take the backseat because of Ellie's condition as my heart raced with fear and dread. Thinking of the possibilities that came with Ellie being in a coma, what it would mean to Mr. Knight. If I, who was just a friend could feel so shattered, I could imagine how he felt. It must be so heartbreaking watching his child fighting for her life, without a promise of return. With that thought, I texted my boss and lied that my mother had a stroke, so I wouldn't be able to come to work. My movement was frantic as I stuffed some clothes into a duffel bag. Skipping classes for a few days wouldn't hurt. I made a mental reminder to inform Alexis of my absence for a few days. Arriving at the hospital seemed harder than I thought as the universe wanted to frustrate my efforts. There was heavy traffic on the highway. I was fidgeting so badly that the cab driver had to ask me what was wrong with me. " I'm fine." I lied and hid my shaky fingers be

I couldn't trust her.“Please,” she said,“We are in a public place if you are worried about being alone with me.” She said, with a helpless smile on her face.I sighed, I really did not want to go with her, but I had to hear what she had to say. Reluctantly, I decided to follow her." Have a seat." She ushered but I refused, and she rolled her eyes, " Really, Aubrey? Do you really think I am here to harm you?" She asked and we sat down by a bench.I looked around a bit, scanning the surroundings to make sure that this place was public enough. As if reading my mind, Amber chuckled,

Hey," I whispered when I opened my eyes and saw Mr. Knight staring at me with laughter in his eyes." It's noon." I stretched my hands. I was thoroughly plowed, in a good way though, the sheets fell from my body and I picked it up immediately." Are you still painfully shy?" He asked and I gave him a look. Of course, I was still shy, " You weren't shy last night." He teased and I felt my face grow hot indicating that I was highly embarrassed."Don't remind me." " You were begging for more. I can still remember you saying, harder! harder!" He mimicked my voice." I don't sound like that." He shrugged, " Well, that was what I heard, It's cute though." He said and I stared at him." Yeah, yeah, you'd do anything to get into my pants." He grinned widely, " Is it working?" He wiggled his eyebro

He was very happy saying it." What if I don't want to be tied to you, Mr. Knight?" I feigned annoyance and he chuckled as he rose to his feet and walked towards me." I know that's a lie. One of the proudest things I own is your heart." He said smugly and drew me closer to his body, more tingles ran through my body as I stared at him, he spoke with utmost confidence. " You are really full of yourself mister." I said, not bothering to deny the obvious fact. " Aren't you scared that I might leave you one of these days?" I said and he growled loudly.The sound didn't scare me anymore. It was an empty threat but he didn't have to know. What's a little love

I asked him. if I had known the gift, maybe I could understand what was going on with Amber." To see visions. Do you have them?" She asked and I shook my head. I had never had flashes, that was what they were called right? " I think you inherited your father's trait then because that's the only explanation I can give." " Okay," I replied, I still had doubts in my mind, " are you sure that I am completely human, and there's no mutation lurking in me?" I asked. " I would have known since you were little." He answered and I stared at him softly. " What's the way forward?" I asked.He stared at me in confusion as he tried to understand what I was talking about. " I mean, now that the burial is out of the way and whatnot, what's the next step? What plans do you have for me?" " What would you like to do?"

I guess it's in the open now." He said and I stared at him, he didn't seem ashamed one bit, and I found it admirable.He heaved a deep sigh which spoke volumes, and rubbed his face to get rid of the tiredness that sat in his eyes.I couldn't imagine how he was feeling, bottling all of that up for so long. My feet trudged toward him, he opened his arms widely and I walked into him, his large arms enclosing me in his warmth. I rested slowly on his chest and shook my head. How was it possible that he was hurting deeply and still wanted to protect me? These were the little things that comforted me and made me know that he loved me very much, "I hope you're doing fine? It'll soon be over." He said.I shook my head, " Sometimes, I wonder if I am not making a big mistake." I began, I was a firm believer of speaking the

    Aubrey's POVA week later,"We are gathered at the burial of our beloved brother, friend, father, son, colleague to usher him into the great beyond today. We wish that the circumstances were different but we cannot help it." The priest said. The air was solemn and Mr. Knight rubbed my back. I was breathing hard seeing George's body in the sand, the only thought that came to my mind. He was killed because of me. I understood that this was a dogged arena and it got me thinking. Would things have been different, if he had exercised some patience? I didn't want to die too, but why couldn't we just have it all? Helen's eyes dug into my flesh like daggers and I didn't blame her for a second, a lot of us would have done the same. Hell, I would be more angry if it was my sister who was killed indiscriminately because of a so-called mate, so I didn't blame her one bit. " May the family step forward?" The priest said and Mr. Knight, Helen, Josh, Meg, and Ellie stepped forward.Mr. Knight si

How can you even say that?" She scoffed, " I'm challenging you, what will you do? Beat me up? Tie me up? Tell me what exactly." She spat again.I could see his fur ruffling, " Tell your sister to get the fuck out of my house." He stated, his muscles expanded in the white shirt and I knew that he was stopping himself from doing something stupid. When I didn't move, he growled and I jumped into action. I pulled my sister out of the house and she stared at me, "What are you doing?" " Can't you see the way he's controlling you? You jumped at his growl, who the hell scares his girlfriend? He wants to turn you into a sex slave." She exclaimed and I sighed. He didn't tolerate any slander against me regardless of who it was coming from so I wasn't also going to tolerate Amber speaking to him in that way. "Listen

If I was here that means that I wasn't dead right?As if he heard my sound, he turned and a sigh of relief escaped his lips and I waited to see what he would do. " Aurora?" He called as if he was very surprised to see me, as he walked closer to me.He hugged me and I felt pain in my neck as he squeezed it hard, I wasn't expecting him to hug me tight. My bones ached causing me to wonder what happened to me. " What happened to me?" I asked and he looked at me, " Was I shot?" I inquired again. That was the last thing I remembered but I wasn't bleeding so I knew that I probably escaped. "No, you weren't."He replied, but you passed out due to the shock from the attack. " The attacker was apprehended." He raised his brows upwards, "Thankfully," He replied, " I am so glad that you are awake. goodness! when I saw you fall, a part of me died a brutal death." He said.
