CHAPTER 103
SANTIAGOThere was nothing else I wanted to do at this moment than dwell in that bliss that was filling me up, I sparkled and anyone would have noticed … For me it all had to do because of her—Glenn.Being with her brought out the very best in me being ways I could even comprehend, she looked to be the missing piece of puzzle, that looked to overwhelm my entire existence till it was the perfect fit.No matter if I were a totally different person living a different life, she brought out the very best in me, she was the exact catalyst that made me…perfect.Perfect, that was the exact way to express this feeling with her it felt like she was another missing piece of my soul fixing herself into me relentlessly.It was funny that I have found my way down the wrong track, Martha was the only thing at the moment doing what she knew how to do best: Complicate things.The Truth about this whole situationship I had with Martha was the fact that she appeared to be unaware of how much damage this was causing our work relationship—All she ever wanted to do was have me all to herself and she would go at any length doing that, it was athe same reason why she had been the first person I suspected when all this came crashing down in the first Instance, it was hard to explain why but when Glenn and said she was being trailed my mind had gone straight to her regardless if if she was innocent of the allegations or not.As I parked the sat still in the car longer than I had planned to I told myself there was w no room for regrets when it came to her all that was left was for me to deal with time.While regrets were easy to come by. They piled up, till they weaken a man—At that moment then I agreed that I had one fucking regret, I regretted fucking Martha.She was waiting for me to come through the door, immediately I saw her I knew what was coming.If Martha had looked not impressed that i had arrived home late three days before imagine how pissed she was at the moment, I rolled my eyes knowing I had to deal with her nagging for hours till I would be forced to walk out on her.Immediately I saw her I dropped my hand and stepped onto a short stair that was leading to the living room, she was seated at the far corner near the mini-bar smoking and taking my whole view in.A thick atmosphere hung in the air as it was filled with both the toxin from the cigarette and animosity from the dark desire that I could see so glaring in her eyes, if she had the chance I was most certain she would snap my neck right where I was standing…The mood she was giving was expected, but the fact she was pregnant and smoking gave a vibe that I wouldn’t have expected in for a medical personal like her.In as much I could tell she was doing that because of something I had done I couldn't just walk past the room without at least stoping her, it was risk I knew that as I would be triggering her but I did that anyways, i made my way to where she was.The gross majority of the synapses in my brain was screaming at me to stop, I could feel the tension as I reached where she was occupying and stopped right In front of her with a bitter look on my face, I watched as she puffed and just when she was about to tap out the ash, I reached out to take the cigarette from her hand.She hesitated at first but then let me…"You shouldn't be doing this, you are pregnant." I muttered. "You should know better."She looked at me like I wasn't even speaking and seemed pretty annoyed."And how is that your business, quite acting like you care —" she rolled her eyes. "It is not as if you do."I followed her gaze to see that she was , observing a lip stick stain in the front of my shirt I did the best I could to hid the stain and this gave her to time to another cigarette after getting it from the pack andheaded to the corner of the room.“Are you planning on killing that child?” I asked Martha.She scoffed. “Why do you care one again. " You walk in here since last night scenting of her and you think you can question me." She shakes her head. "Please."At the moment it had two options but Silly enough I opted for the one that would most definitely ignite her fury, it was all a deliberate action at the back of my head, get her angry and she' wouldn't be able to come with you to back to the West Virginia."That is irresponsible… It is your decision anyways."I turned to leave but In time to see her eyes turn red she walked behind me as I she fired word's at me all the way to the room.All through the while I totally ignored her, walked in straight to my room and shut the door, it was a good thing we shared different room situation like this helped to diffuse the whole situation.As I had a smirk on my face as I shut the door, I was definitely certain she won't coming along—****The clock said One p.m. when I was able to go back downstairs to her, Martha had gone like three hours going all crazy bjt had then cried it all out before making her way away,I had some other business to take care or I most definitely wouldn't have walked out.The room still had a hint of cigarettes as Martha laid there one the sofa looking tired and asleep, a small smile came to my lips how fascinating she had blew the whole matter into difficult proportionYet I would have preferred for her to keep ranting as she was easier to control then, with her looking sobber as she did at the moment she made my self control a bit more difficult.I sneaked out without even making the squeak,.Truthfully, I hated the idea of having to treat her that way but she made that itch in the back of my head that kept reminding me of how silly she could get.I was walking back to the car after the meeting when I got a call from Glenn.I smiled before picking. " Hello, love.""Santi, you need to be here , the stalker is… " The call disconnected.CHAPTER 104GLENNEverything happened even before I could stop it, at the first Instance my first instincts had been to run but there again the whole situation. proved critical.If anyone had ever said I would be this scared about the situation I would have argued but at the moment it was exactly case—It all started shortly after he left, my moment of silence and having time alone to myself had been interrupted by Anna's call.As usual she had called to know how the dinner had gone and I was quite expressive with my description of the exclusive evening.We were still on the call when I heard a knock at my door , on any normal day I would have taken precaution of the entire situation but as it was it seemed far fetched from what I would have normally done —"Give me a minute.""Oh, Santi is back… " she made a humming sound that made me laugh." You are just naughty. " I shook my head as a knock filled the room again.I grinned. "A minute."To my surprise I didn't see anyone, instead
CHAPTER 105GLENNAs much as I tried convincing him all was fine, that single fact was not accepted by this man, I didn't know why but something about him made accepting the situation much more difficult.Perhaps I wouldn't have had to go through the whole stress if Anna had just convinced him, she didn't do that as she also insisted on the report… It tookPersuasion from the two parties I ended up at the station, we didn't have to wait too long as a detective had taken useful information to get whoever this was.The letter was another piece of evidence but it had been touched many times so not much could be done.I had let out a flighty air. While walking out, I wondered why I was the only one being trailed all through the entire town.It was frustrating because the detective had asked really private questions again and over I had lied about it… lied about my past, lied about my identity and it out me in a bad mood.My rapid heartbeats counted the whole conversation as I remembered
Glenn’s POVThe senior lady in the omega district pushed me hard and I fell with the bucket of water I was carrying, her cliques roared in laughter filled with mockery.“You idiot! Do you have any right to share the same lane with me?” She lashed at my face and I pressed my lips against the other.I ignored them and went over to another corner to pick the picture that fell from my hand. It was already rumpled in the mud, they watched me as I dramatically cleaned the dirt from its surface.“What’s this?” I didn’t know when Jennifer got close to me and snatched it from my hand. I trembled out of shock.“Who is this?” She scoffed as she looked at it, I tried to retrieve it back but other ladies held me back.“Oh, don’t tell me you have a lover.” She said rhetorically with her voice mixed with sarcasm as she shared the old picture with her friends.That was the only picture I had of him, the only thing that kept me going since I wasn’t allowed to come with anything valuable. My heart shre
Glenn’s POVA guard grabbed my hair with his strong hand and dragged me to the center of the pack, where people are mostly gathered. This place was used to pass information in the pack, to reject mate or execute rogues.I was baffled as to why Luna Mary and the Alpha asked the guards to bring me here against my wish. I had apologized for my wrong and told her that I didn’t do anything but she wouldn’t believe.Especially since her spirit cat, Kevin chose to side with the Alpha.The pack members formed circle while I was in the middle, sitting on the cold ground with my legs wrapped together. I was ashamed and afraid.The pack members didn’t stop whispering, laughing and murmuring, they were also curious about what the Alpha wanted to do but at the same time, they were excited that I have finally fallen into the trap.“She is a dead meat.” One said.“Does she think she can do as she wish in this pack?” Honestly, I couldn’t tell why they despised me to so much to the extent that they wi
Glenn’s POV“Mateo, do you agree to what I have said?” I heard my father’s loud voice as I hurriedly rushed to the main hall.“Yes, Alpha. I shall get married to Luciana as planned.” My jaw dropped as soon as I heard his statement. I stood at the entrance, unable to walk forward with my eyes staring at them.“Thank you so much dad, for granting us this marriage.” Luciana said with a voice filled with excitement.“Father!” I cried out in agony, approaching them as they turned to me with astonishment on their faces.Luciana hid behind Mateo while he faced the ground, my father quickly jumped from his throne as he was excited to see me.“Glenn! You are back.” He pulled me into a warm embrace, even though I was comfortable, I succumbed because inwardly I missed my father.“How are you?” He pulled away from me with his warm hands on my face.“Dad, is this the time for that?” I sniffled. “Did I hear you correctly? You of all people know that I love Mateo so much and we are destined to be to
Glenn’s POVMateo informed the entire pack that he would give them his word in the right time since he wasn’t ready to say anything. He couldn’t even look at me in the eyes. I began to wonder if he was the same person that I fell in love with or was I so stupid to have accepted the tribulation?“Maybe I would have allowed him to go in my stead.” I bit my lips as I thought inwardly.My peace was interrupted when Luciana stormed into my bedroom chamber after knocking. I gave her a long look before looking away.“What are you doing here?” I tried to remain calm.“I want to talk to you, sister.” She said politely and I faced her, wondering what she had to say.Luciana and I were born by different mother but that didn’t make us hate ourselves because our mothers died the same day. Luciana and I have been close all trough the years while growing up together and she was part of the witness who could vouch that I really loved Mateo and we were destined. The swiftness at which she changed kept
Glenn’s POVBefore my eyes, Mateo and Luciana was getting married. My dear father gave them his blessing without having a second thought how I would feel.I locked myself in my bedroom chamber and restricted my maid to bring any news about them to me. It was unfair and painful.There was no different between this life and the tribulation I have passed through. Inwardly, I vouched to make Mateo and Luciana pay for what they have caused me.The humiliation of rejecting me in public and making me become a laughingstock in the entire pack, they won’t go scout free.They were living freely, forgetting about the curse that was embedded in the tribulation.No one asked how I was coping with it, they all pretended as though they never knew something like that existed.I sat by the window, staring at the bright sky and the birds chirping and flying freely. To me, the sky wasn’t warming anymore, it was dark and unpleasant. I attempted to return back to bed when the gossip from some servants dis
SANTIAGOThe sky was dark, It breezed through the room slowly as my phone flashed and buzzed where it was.Tired, I looked up at who the caller was, it turned out that it was my Assistant —Evelyn, calling to check on me."You should have a rest, you know, you've been working for so long." She said from the other end.I rolled my eyes. "You know how important this … ""Still you should have a life outside the laboratory. " She interrupted.I sighed deeply."Thanks for caring anyways, but I really have to do this.""Fine then I was just checking up on you. " Evelyn said just as I dropped the callHer call made me realize how far the day had gone, I soon decided that I had enough for the day and decided it was time to go home.Walking out of the laboratory, I couldn't help but imagine how the past weeks had been.At the moment I was at this point in my life where I had to start giving meaning to every little thing that happened to me, starting from each breath that escaped through my n
