REGINA

Anyone that may have passed by me at that moment would have taken me for someone going insane. I remained rooted to a spot, processing my reality.

Does it mean Lionel was so evil, so stupidly childish and cringe, that he would instruct Damian to go head over heels and try to molest me?

But if he did tell Damian to do so, why didn’t he then tell Lucky the same thing? Why did he then tell Lucky to just let go?

Now, Damian was dead.

Wait a minute!

I gasped as my jaw fell open. “No… no…” I gasped. I didn’t want to think that was true. Was I overthinking things already? I needed Gwen. I needed to meet Gwen.

I hurried out of Goldie, taking another look at it as I got into a cab, wishing things had turned out differently, and yes, it would have. My whole career was right in front of me right now and it was taken all away by Lionel with just a simple phone call!

Argh!

“Are you okay, ma’am?” I di

    LIONEL I had Frankenstein’s number, thanks to Ryker, and now, it was time to give him a good call. However, I thought it better to have the conversation face-to-face to make my points more clearly to him. Still, I needed him to come meet me somewhere – I didn’t want to have to go to the company any time soon and have foolish girls flash their nudes at me. “Hello?” His fickle voice came from the other side. “Hello, Frank. I assume you already know who’s on the line. My voice must be familiar.” I replied. “Sir Lionel.” He replied calmly. “Great. You mind coming out for a chat?” He agreed. I gave him a location, cut the line and put on the most casual outfit I could and a pair of sunglasses, making my way to the sit-out where I had told him to wait. Just as I expected, he was already there before me, waiting prudently. He rose and offered a handshake as I drew closer. “Sir.” I received the handshake. “Thank

    REGINA Of course, Father was after protecting the reputation of Lionel Williams - my soon to be husband. I didn’t give a shit!I wanted to tell him to his face that I was beginning to have an idea of the type of devil he was and though my suspicions of Damian’s death was only based on theories, I was almost a hundred percent sure that Lionel was more than capable of killing Damian to prove a point. And yet, here I was… meant to marry him.I kept fuming throughout that day - pissed off at Lucky for letting me go at a threat even when I knew deep down that it wasn’t his fault, disappointed in my father for being so blind to a plain truth, angry at Lionel for merely existing. “He doesn’t want me, and yet he wants to keep me… He wants to cage me like some bird, stop me from having a life of my own!” I growled as I kept pacing around the room while Gwen remained on the bed, watching, lost in thoughts as well. We had both faced the shit together. “Maybe we need to find Marcy…” Gwen sudd

    LIONEL“Grandpa!” I could hear my roar go round the mansion like roars of thunder. Grandpa and some attendants were out in no time and when grandpa saw Ryker on the ground in my arms, he ran straight to me instantly trying to make a head or tail of what could have taken place. “How did this happen, Lionel? Are we under attack?” He asked nervously, trying to regulate his breath and not panic, but I could see the fear in his body as he held Ryker. I could hear his heart racing. “Help him, Grandpa! What can we do?” He was still breathing. I could hear his heartbeat but it was gradually fading within him. He was going to die. “I cannot exactly treat this, Lionel. He needs to get to a hospital as soon as possible, but what I can do is to use my powers.” Grandpa replied. I looked up at him to see if he was serious. Grandpa Leonard, like some other unique wolf shifters out there, was one of the many that had special abilities even when he hardly ever talked about it. Grandpa was a heal

    REGINAA few days past and I was yet to get over the scheming darkness of Lionel plaguing my life. I knew well that perhaps, I wouldn’t get over it, though until I came face to face with Lionel to tell him just how much of a piss of shit, he and his beta was right to his face.I just didn’t want to have to go all the way to his territory to do that, but we were getting married right? He was going to get it bluntly from me sooner or later.Father and I did not speak about anything through the passing days as I watched the intensity for the wedding preparation grow. The women frequented the house more often, all smiling and joyful, like two lovebirds were getting married under the bright full moon. I was sick of their joy. It’s not like they were pretending – they just didn’t have an idea of how much hate was brooding between me and my husband-to-be.Some of the women tried to talk to me every now and then, telling me things about how to serve the alpha. I barley gave any listening ears

    REGINAYou have to be kidding me!“I don’t really understand, I’m sorry…” I truly didn’t get it. “You mean Lionel had the nerve to tell you to come here and tell me to my face that I should come work for Sun Entertainment?”Frankenstein sighed heavily, unsure of how to make any sense of it either. “He’s a complex man.”“Frank, you were there. You saw what he did – how he humiliated me in front of everyone and sent me out. Like what in the world makes you think I would just want to return and waltz back into Sun Entertainment, pretending like nothing ever happened?”“Look, Regina. I don’t even understand what is going on between you and Lionel. It seems so twisted.” Frankenstein was saying.“There is nothing going on between the both of us!” I yelled. “There’s nothing that seems twisted, whatsoever. Lionel should simply leave me the fuck alone!”“Yes, but for some reason, he doesn’t want to have you anywhere around but doesn’t want you progressing somewhere else. It’s this hate that’s

    REGINAI eventually made up my mind and chose to give Frankenstein a chance at getting away from Lionel’s schemes.When Monday finally arrived again, I was all ready to set out for Sun Entertainment. I stopped at Gwen’s place at first. She wasn’t so happy to see me and the reasons were quite obvious.“You really want to do this?” She asked me quietly.“I’m aware I have the option of focusing on just myself and ignoring whatever Frank had to say, Gwen, but I cannot choose that option.” I replied calmly. “I won’t be at rest knowing that Frankenstein had to suffer, and it was all my fault.”“It was not your fault – it’s all his!” Gwen replied.“I’m his target and he knows just what he’s doing. He knows I cannot leave Frankenstein to the dust which is why he’s using him to get to me.” I replied.“So, in other words, Lionel is winning this.” Gwen scoffed.“You shouldn’t see it that way, Gwen. He’s not winning anything. I just need to begin, like I’m actually a part of it, then I’d get the

    LIONELRyker was going to be fine – at least that was what the doctors said. I saw him before I left that night. He was still unconscious, calm and quiet. Just watching from the distance, I felt my heart thumping harshly within me.“We shouldn’t have done this, Lucius…” I growled. “Ryker is my beta.”I am not just any wolf, Lionel… I heard Lucius growl back. Ryker suddenly attacked us – what had to be done had to be done. If there is anyone to direct the blame to, it should be yourself. I felt the anger welling through me as I ran my fingers crazily through my hair. “I don’t understand. I should blame myself? I wanted you to stay put and you just took control and did what you wanted!”Still, all these is your fault, Lionel. Search deep and you’ll see where you should blame yourself.“What the hell are you saying?” I gave it a thought. Search deep…Truly, this was Regina’s fault. If I wasn’t to blame Lucius, then I should blame Regina for whatever she did or said to Ryker that turned

    REGINASomehow, the way Frank had rained the girls with insults lightened my mood as I laughed at his illustrations. “I’d go through the script, Frank.” “Look, Regina… I do not care whether it’s Beatrice doing the lead role or not. All I know is that there’s something I see in you. I know what you’re capable of, and even when someone or something is trying to obstruct that light, you keep flaming beyond. I don’t want you to take this project with levity but put in all your best, Regina. There’s something big coming from it and I can feel it.” I could hear the sincerity in his voice and nodded now. As I made my way back that day after running a little script analysis with him, I came across Beatrice, waiting by the road with Igea and the last nameless piece of shit I didn’t give two fucks about. “Hey!” Beatrice called out to me as she marched forward. “What is this? Aren’t you shameless enough? You’ve been kicked out of this place fo

    REGINA It was so dark anyone could have stumbled and fallen but I could easily glide through thanks to my night vision. “Ray, come this way. Hold my hand and let’s go together.” I could hear Ray’s discomfort, stumbling over the rocky grounds as he tried to keep up. I held his arm now and continued through the cave. I could still spot the wolf ahead, gliding through gracefully, checking every now and then to see if we were still following. Then suddenly, the wolf vanished from sight. I was still so busy running as fast as I could that I didn’t even notice that the wolf was already out of sight. When I took notice, however, I came to a stop. Ray stopped beside me, holding his knees as he coughed uncontrollably. Neither of us said a word because we were too busy struggling with our breaths. But I was also too busy trying to find the wolf. I couldn’t see anything. Even with my night vision, this felt darker th

    LIONEL They would only find their casualties and of course, they should be wiser next time. I heard them from inside and then they were out in the dark again, by the shores of the beach with their guns poised as they scouted the dark, searching for something that may point towards me. Then they started advancing towards the forest, splitting up. The next instinct in my mind now was to play their game, of course. All I needed to do was follow them into the forest—my domain and territory—and there I would kill them one after the other. But then I remembered the casualties in my room. Not only were two men dead—two men whose colleagues had taken their bodies out just before me and most definitely cleared out the evidence of them ever being there. There were also the two ladies I was just having a good time with lying death in my room, both shot in the head. Why was it that anytime I decided to have a little bi

    LIONEL What harm could be in a little moment of sex, just a little time to enjoy myself and forgetting the shit of a wife I married? That was what I was experiencing now. I was Lionel Williams. I had my way with whatever I wanted. Imagine having two girls go head over heels to have this moment with me, and yet, there was a wife I had who dared to leave me sight and go out fucking another man. Fuck you, Regina! The good thing is there was something to put all that anger on now. As I cursed at Regina, I squeezed Lydia’s boobs and spanked Jemma’s butts. Both women were already sliding out of their dresses, both stark naked as they moaned and panted, struggling for who could kiss me first. I was still in my clothes even though Lydia’s hand slipped underneath my shirt and rubbed my breasts till it hardened. Jemma was faster. She instantly slid her palm over the bulge of my pants, struggling to grab my crotch as

    REGINA After a good while, all we found was nothing but large mountains, a couple of trees sticking out around cooler areas and endless piles of dusty stones. “We can’t be sure we’re making any headway.” Ray stated now beneath one of the shades we found with trees around. “Neither can we be sure we’re safe, right?” I mentioned. Ray gave me an inquisitive glance. “You feel it could be dangerous finding the Mountain Men?” I shrugged. “Well, we can’t exactly tell what is going on yet, can we?” “So what is your plan B? What would happen if we found these Mountain Men and we couldn’t seem to find our way back?” “Lionel would definitely come to look for us.” I replied. Ray seemed panicked. “Look, I need us to get this straight. You said Lionel would not be here to find us.” “Yes, that’s if, of course, I make it back in a day plus and not more than that

    REGINA “Such is life. I need help here, Ray, and from your knowledge, only you can help me in this desperate time.” I convinced him further. He nodded now, apparently more energized and ready for the trip. “Alright, are we going to walk there or take a vehicle?” “I don’t want us drawing attention. It’s a tourist center so eyes could be on us. I think we should walk the way.” Ray made a face but shrugged nevertheless. “Alright, we move then.” He replied. I headed for the door slowly and hesitated when I felt his arm on my shoulder. “Regina, are you sure about this?” He asked. I smiled. “Believe me, no sane person wants to embark on this journey. If it wasn’t that important, I wouldn’t be doing this.” He nodded. “Then let’s do what had to be done.’ I left the room, happy to have met someone as helpful and supportive as Ray. As we made our way out of the room, I locke

There’s nothing you should worry about.” “Regina, your husband was a werewolf and you didn’t even, at least, warn me that he was something of such, not to talk about even telling me about this. In all, I should have just stayed away from you!” “To hell with that, Ray!” I shot back. “Whatever Lionel is cannot stop me from living my life the way I want!” He shook his head. “Regina… Regina… You’re not listening. Your so-called husband could have killed me. That easy, Regina!” “He wouldn’t hurt you. He could threaten you but he wouldn’t hurt you.” “What is wrong with you? I mean, you sound so sure of something so abnormal.” I shrugged. “What can I say? He’s my husband.” Ray suddenly paused and I could see a new curiosity on his face. It was like he had read another new discovery in my words. “Regina… if you could marry the werewolf. Are you al

  • Loving the Cold-Hearted Alpha Lionel    What Happened With Regina

    REGINA I was alive, I was safe, and I was just wondering whether Lionel was even thinking about me. It began with the night of the accident when the car had slid down the hill and Lionel had come just in time to rescue me. That same night, I had struck a new deal with him and saved myself from having to be blackmailed each time I set my eyes upon him—I was not going to bother Grandpa with news of the accident and he was not going to ever bring it up as me being indebted to him. It had gone perfectly well with him in his room, and at this point, all I wanted to do was return to my room and allow myself to fall deeply asleep. It was just after I had a shower that I got a knock. The first idea I had was that Lionel was back again with something to rule out my little threat against him. On the contrary, it was my good new friend. It was Ray. “Hey, Ray.” I made to shake him as I extended my hand to him. He shrugg

    LIONEL The suspense was killing me. I couldn’t get my mind wrapped around what Regina could have been doing to not be present in neither the hotel nor the bus. Had she gone back? No, she hadn’t. If she had, at least the girls would have seen her. They sounded honest enough. They had not set eyes on neither the woman nor Ray. Ray! The name sent pangs of anger firing through my head. What had they both been up to? Now, this was beginning to look scary. After all, she just met the guy. What if Ray had done something terrible to Regina? What if Ray had... You need to remain calm. I heard Lucius instruct from within me. Regina could be in trouble. I replied within my thoughts. No, Lionel. Look at it more clearly. After all, Regina never loved you, and she knew very well that you didn’t love her. This could just be her plot to make you panic. Lucius re

    LIONEL I joined the bus as I met the driver. “Hey, good morning.” The driver greeted me in the most absurdly friendly manner ever. “Good morning,” I replied. “Looks like you’d be joining us today.” He mentioned. I got into the bus now and took my usual position at the back. There were new faces of tourists in the new bus. In fact, I recognized none. And Regina was not present. Neither was Ray. Where the fuck were they? “Yes, I’d be joining you.” I replied. “That means your wife’s all good?” I scanned again for Regina. She truly wasn’t in the goddamned bus. “Yeah.” I replied. “Wait, she’s not here yet. I assume she’s yet to come.” “I guess she’s joined another rider.” “Another rider?” “Yeah, there was a bus that came earlier for tourists that wanted to start their journey much earlier today.” He repl
