Kierra's POVAden's home was enormous. I can see why it's called the Morrison Mansion. While we were younger, Aden once showed me where he lived but I was never opportune to go in. The house was empty except for an aged woman who couldn't speak but was making gestures with her hands and head. Although there were lots of guys outside. Probably they all worked for Aden, just like Lucian.I felt pity for her. I wondered what her relationship with Aden was, could she be the nursemaid he told her about? Lucian took me to the sitting room and told me to feel comfortable, that the Alpha will soon be here.I was offered a glass of water by a nice old lady. "Thank you," I said, collecting the water from her.The sitting room was large and beautiful. A family of twenty could live quite comfortably in this house.She smiled. Aden came back home thirty minutes after I and Lucian had arrived.He was on the phone when he came in. He ended the call, heading towards my direction."Hi, sorry I am la
Aden's POV"That looks better now," I told myself when the guy at the salon finished with my fake mustache.What was I thinking? All I needed was a mirror and a little patience to get my mustache to look good, not place it upside down. But looking at it now, I think I needed the help of a professional to make it look real and this good. I looked much older with a mustache on. It did a better job at making me look entirely different compared to the face mask and cap —not considered a disguise, seriously.The salon guy was curious as to why I needed a fake mustache. He was concerned that I didn't need it because I looked much better without it.I told him I was working undercover so I needed it. He was finding my cooked-up story interesting and told me that whenever I needed to dispose of the mustache, he would be happy to do it for me."Thanks, friend, I wouldn't hesitate to come to look for you when I need a change," I said to him as I appreciated his good work."Anytime, man" he re
Kierra's POV "Good morning beautiful, hope you slept well," Aden asked from across the room sitting on a couch. I didn't hear when he entered the room. I must have been sound asleep and I was so tired. "Good morning, yes I did. Thanks for the care" I said sitting up. " You don't need to thank me, Kierra. It's part of my responsibility to see that you are safe and happy" The dinner yesterday was short. After Aden introduced me to Mr Anderson. We only discussed about Kenvy, its inhabitants they told me how a lot has happened in my absence. I had a feeling they were speaking casually because they didn't want to make me uncomfortable with some other discussion of theirs. They almost were at each other's neck and now all of a sudden they were acting like one big family in my presence. I excused myself, telling them I needed to rest because I was still not feeling too well from the news I heard about Miss Rosy. "Seemed you were so tired and sad yesterday," Aden asked "It's still un
Aden's POV "Good morning Lisa," She was wiping the table when I came in. It was 7 am and the city was beginning to get busy. "Hey, Samson. You are here already" Lisa said, giving me that smile that made my heart melt again. "Aden, behave, why are you feeling this way?" I asked myself Or was it my wolf yearning to be with a female after my blackout? I felt like having such feelings for someone else was like cheating on Kierra. She was still smiling at me, I couldn't help but admire her, her hair was tied upward into a bun. Her skin was fair and beautiful, so I kept on appreciating all her qualities—thank God she was not so close to me. Indeed she is a beautiful woman. But I needed to get back to my senses and stop having stupid thoughts. "Umm..yeah. I need to be here early. Don't want to get here when the place is so busy. I want to catch up in time." "Ok. That's great. You can go in now to meet the manager—Mr Owen. Take this path, his office is by your left. It has a re
Kierra's POVIt has been a week now since I came to live in the Morrison Mansion. Aden's home.Living here is satisfying, just that I didn't get to see people moving around just like they did in my neighborhood. It was a quiet and beautiful place. Heavily guarded by Aden's men.Because I am with Aden now and I enjoy being around him, this has made me forget about every other thing that made me happy back where I lived in the outskirts. Lucian has been the one taking me to the office and bringing me back home during closing hours. On two occasions I and Aden had gotten to work together, but it was before daybreak, around five am. This was when I confirmed my suspicion that he came early to work, verifying why I never saw him arrive at work at the same time as everyone.It was indeed a hard way to live. He has to leave home before the day breaks or the sun's rays spread out and he has to go back home after the sunsets. This situation made me sympathize with him. I wish there was some
Aden's POV"Elliot, meet Samson. Samson, meet Elliott, your partner. This is the new delivery guy I told you about earlier" Lisa said as she introduced us to each other.lIt was that punk guy— he doesn't look like someone who would bear the name Elliot.Lisa was putting me through the arrangements we are going to have for the night when he distracted us with his presence. Lisa said I and Mr punk guy —Elliot were going to run shifts, it was how the schedule was carried out here. From next week, I was going to be on the morning shift while Elliot will be on the night. The following week we will switch places. I will be in the night and he will be in the morning. We were meant to rotate it every week. Although we have other delivery guys, Lisa said we were six and were divided into teams. Coincidentally, I and Elliot were on the same team."Oh yeah I met him earlier, I hope he will be quick to catch up because there's no time to school him about the job," Elliot said with a stern lo
Kierra's POVI didn't bother knocking on the door. I was so angry. I could hardly think straight. Did Aden know where I have been all this while and didn't reach out to me? It would break my heart if I found this to be true.Many thoughts have been going through my mind. It brought me to one conclusion, Aden was not telling me something.I thought it weird for me to get a job with A&D Communications within a short period. There was a time I thought about this; that submitting the application and getting accepted for the job in A&D Communications was just too easy. But I brushed the thought away.Aden was surprised to see me barge in without prior notice or announcement, without having any regard for his privacy. He was alone, busy on his laptop on his desk."Kierra, what's the matter? Hope you are okay. He wasn't angry at the way I walked into his office. He was rather more concerned about why I was looking the way I did. " Aden, I came here because I need to know the truth about
Aden's POV"Give me a hand, big man" Tessy yelled as she tries carrying a box containing beef into the shop. Tessy was a woman with a small frame, she was less than five feet tall. She looked like a cute child whenever she was doing her tasks but was a force to reckon with whenever she started to yell. She could yell so hard that she would deafen whoever was within proximity.Just yesterday that I met her, she had yelled a dozen times and within that short period, I have known so much about her. If she wasn't yelling at Bright, she was yelling at Jack. I could see they were used to her yelling already."Ooh, sure," I replied. I had just arrived to work for the night shift. Today is my second day at work.I told Tessy not to worry about the boxes so I insisted on carrying the six boxes containing beef at once, to save me the time of coming back to carry them one after the other."Wooooh…I wish I could do that, just look at that Tess" I overheard Jack whispering to Tessy, pretending I d
