MICHELLE’s POV. As soon as Enzo walks out of the room, a slight sigh leaves my mouth. Who exactly is he and how dare he try to act like we are acquainted? The more I think about it, the more it makes no sense. What exactly is his motive behind coming to my hotel room and asking me to go with him to Los Angeles? My thoughts are interrupted when a hand prods me and I turn to see Lucy staring back at me, a bewildered look lingering on her face. “I didn’t know you had another man, Michelle” she tells me, “I almost thought my brother did a bad thing for leaving you, the ideal Luna and mate” her voice is full of enough sarcasm towards me. A frown appears on my forehead, I know exactly what she is trying to do. She is trying to guilt trick me into thinking I am the problem when her brother was the one who brought his ex-girlfriend into our home and even got her pregnant. I tried not to think about it but looking at the face of his sister, I get upset. For the longest time, L
NICHOLAS’s POV. Natalia Is sleeping peacefully on the bed while my gaze continues to linger on her. She is a complete replica of Michelle. Maybe because the two of them are siblings but the difference isn’t much. Even if I don’t want to think about Michelle, looking at her elder sister, I can not help but think about her. My musing is cut short when a soft knock resonates on the door and a frown appears on my face, who dares to disturb me at a time like this? Pushing my body out of bed, I walk to the door and throw it open. Lucy is standing there and she looks a bit upset which makes my forehead crease into a frown. “What happened?” I ask her, “why do you look so glum?” “I met with michelle” she tells me and the frown on my face intensifies, what did she expect me to do because she met with Michelle? Thinking about it, it pisses me off. “So what?” I glance back at Natalia and luckily she is still sleeping. I made her a promise not to talk about her sister again and Lu
MICHELLE’s POV. When the knock came on the door, my heart skipped a beat. I actually thought Enzo came back after the stunt he pulled. How can he kiss me like that and worst of all, I didn’t even push him away. I allowed him to kiss me for as long as he wanted before I finally pushed him away and sent him off. Maybe he is the one by the door and I am ready to give him a piece of my mind but as soon as I fling the door open, I freeze. It is not Enzo but Nicholas. How did he know my room number and why the hell is he in front of my door? My eyes darken at the sight of him, the nerve of him to show up in front of me after what he did to me. “Nicholas?” His name rolls out of my lips, “why are you here?” “Enzo?” He asks me, “is that who you are seeing now?” My forehead curves up, how does he know about Enzo? Oh, Lucy must have told him but even at that, did he even have the right to stand in front of me and ask me about a man he doesn’t even know? “You must have had
ENZO’s POV. As soon as I drop the call, my lips curl into smirk while my attention is drawn to the leather bag on the passenger’s seat. After I left her house earlier, I went back to doctor Mandy to know a few more things about her and with my own intuition, I was able to decipher a lot about her. My kid sister who is six years younger than me is also a vegetarian wolf. She could hunt down thousands of prey in one night but on the days when she is in her human form, Izzy hates meat. The moment I got close to Michelle, I knew that was her kind of person and for her salad? I genuinely do not know how I got to know about it. It just clicked my mind and I got it, was my wolf sense becoming more extreme? I thought only wolves who are fated to each other could know what the other person is thinking? My thoughts are interrupted when I see her walking towards me clad in a knitted scarf and a loose pair of pants which does not do enough justice hiding her hourglass figure. Her h
MICHELLE’s POV. I don’t know exactly why I trust the words of Enzo so much but there is something about him. Something that makes me trust him even if I haven’t known him for a day. I am not sure what it is and what it could be but deep inside my mind, I know I can no longer go back to the time when I didn’t know him. In no time, I am sitting on the passenger’s seat of his black Audi which he speeds through the busy night of the city. This is the first time I am actually observing the city I have lived in for years and it really looks beautiful. All my life; i just preferred staying at the pack house with aunt after my parents died and I only came into the main city when I needed something and i go back immediately. I never for once stopped to admire the city I lived in maybe because I have lived a sheltered life all my life but looking at it now, I realize how much I have missed, how much I should have known but I couldn’t. Even after my parents died, Nicholas continued to
ENZO’s POV. I see how Michelle’s face gets red and I scoff, she is just too funny even on a hospital bed. Earlier when that pain enveloped her, fear actually gripped me and I lost all sense of reasoning but seeing her smiling and joking around now, I feel a lot better. I actually don’t know what the moon goddess is planning but the lady in front of me is definitely something else, something I would like to get closer to more than this and I am going to make sure of that. Her pain, her heartache, her sadness and her anxiety, I want to get rid of everything and anything that makes her sad and upset. “Stop staring at me like that” Michelle says after a while, “I don’t want to be too close to you” I chuckle lightly, I love the fact that she is trying to act hard to get, it makes me want to be around her the more. My mobile begins to ring again and the look on her face changes which makes my smirk widen. Is she being jealous right now? Thinking about it, it kind of make
NATALIA’s POV. Nicholas has been gone for most part of the day because of the wolf hunters that were caught a day ago. Life at the pack house was getting better and everything was on track. This was the life I wanted, this was the life for me. The life that my little sister stole from me. Speaking of little sister, I had asked someone to find her for me but no one knows where she went and that was better. It was a good thing that she disappeared from our lives for good, I couldn’t stand her anyways. Now under the tainting sun of the city, I am seated at the foot of the im swimming pool with a bottle of champagne beside me and my favorite music blaring from unseen stereos when one of the workers walks up to me with a slight bow. “Someone is here to see you, Luna” she announces and my forehead creases into a slight frown. I am not expecting anyone and Nicholas is not back yet, that I am sure of. So who has come to see me at this time? “Who is it?” I ask her again, “who
MICHELLE’s POV. My mouth hangs open in awe as Enzo opens the car door for me. The mansion in front of me looks like something out of a fairytale. Every detail, every extravagance is unique and I can not help but marvel at it. The Middlemist Red Camellia gracing his front lawn catches my attention and I can not help but be wowed. This flower is one of the rarest flowers and Enzo has it in abundance and not to mention the beautiful mansion that looks like a chapel. The one who designed this house must have spent years coming up with the best design. “You look impressed” his voice filters into my ear and I jolt out of my reverie of thought before turning my head towards him, my eyes didn’t miss the smirk on his lips. He looks proud. “The house is really beautiful” I tell him, “of course I am impressed” “This is the only building you will ever find like this, Michelle” he tells me, “one of a kind” “Hmmm” My eyes catch the attention of the two people walking
ODETTE’s POV.“Good morning baby” Malachi says as I step out of the shower. He is clad in a pair of grey sweatpants and a white Tee. His hair in a messy bun while he has a bored look on his face.I look at the time and it’s already past seven.“Aren’t you going to work today?” I ask him, making my way towards the vanity table but instead of answering, he pulls his huge body off the bed and starts walking towards me like a panther wanting to pounce on his prey. As soon as he gets to me, he encircles my waist from behind and presses a gentle kiss on my bare back.“I am not going to work today” he whispers into my ear, “today, I am going to stay at home all day”“I thought you had a lot of work?”Another kiss to the back and my insides heat up. We haven’t been intimate in a few days and I can’t lie, I miss him but the recent happenings have kept us on our toes. I missed him , I missed having him buried inside of me, I missed looking like a mess underneath him.“What’s going on in that fi
BRYER’s POV.I didn’t expect to find Malachi's wife here but seeing her with him and seeing the way Zachary kept looking at her until she left made me upset. He should be over her by now and he shouldn’t even be looking at her that way. I am mad at him yes but that doesn’t mean I have forgotten how my body felt underneath him. I can’t lie, he and Malachi are beasts when it comes to the bedroom game. I want to feel Malachi inside of me again but since I can’t have him yet, Nicholas can do that for me.“I didn’t know your ex wife still visited you” I say out loud, dropping my bag on the table and covering the space between us.“It’s none of your business, Bryer,” he tells me, lowering himself on the couch. “I know why she came here, she wanted to get the truth out of me and I told her. I know I would be arrested sooner or later but the fact that she came here to our house Is enough for me. I killed our unborn baby too, this is the least I can do for her. I care about her more than anyth
ODETTE’s POV.“Good morning ma” the house help greets as she opens the front door. She must be new because I have not seen her before.“Where is Zach?”“He has gone for a run, ma’am”“Good, I will wait for him”With that, I step into the house but she tries to stop me.“I don’t know you ma”“You do not need to know me, young lady” I gently cut her off, “just ring your master and let him know that Odette has come to see him. He should be running back in no time”Not saying anything again, I go further into the house and for a little while, my heart breaks again. The four walls of this house once held my happiness and everything, Zach and I shared everything we possibly could but now it looks tainted, like the devil himself had come to stay here. It no longer looks like the house I shared with my ex husband, it was now part of a mistake I should never make again. Nothing has changed in the house but everything looks different, even our wedding pictures are still hanging on the wall. Did
MALACHI’s POV.The police commissioner stands up the moment he sees me and he extends his hand for a shake which I readily accept. Odette’s brothers and my lawyers are outside, I will prefer to meet him on my own for now.“I am glad you came as soon as you got the call, sir” he says.“Tell me, what’s the status?”“Apparently Mr Zachary has evidence portraying you as the killer of his assistant. A voice recording where you were talking about the body and also a picture of you near the body before it was taken to the crematorium as per your request”I can’t help but scoff, Zachary is as sly as a fox, I should really give him that.“The police are working on analyzing the voice recording to know if you actually said it but ideally, an arrest warrant was put out for you and that’s why I called”“Do you think I killed her?”“Of course not sir” he gives an awkward laugh, “I don’t believe that sir, it’s just the situation right now”“I will cooperate with the investigations as long as you wa
ODETTE’s POV.“Good evening mum” I hug her lightly and her cologne filters into my nose, she smells so nice and I kind of miss her, those days when we would just sit and talk together.“You look dashing, sweetheart” mum says excitedly, her eyes traveling around my body.“Well” I shrug, walking over to dad, “I live to impress” with a smile, I lean into my dad’s embrace.“Good evening dad”“Well, you completely forgot about us after your honeymoon” he has a pout on his lips and I can’t help but laugh out loud. Shouldn’t mum be the one sulking? But dad never seems to disappoint me.“Well, I have a good looking husband, I need to take in all his sight, dad. But not to worry, I will make sure to come and see you often”“Of course baby” he pats my back lightly as his eyes soften, he loves me and I know that for sure.The door opens up and the two boys saunter in. Is it my eyes or does Kayden look more muscular and a bit taller than Jayden? I haven’t seen him since the wedding. I guess this
MALACHI’s POV.“Good morning sir” Emma says as she saunters into the office.“Good afternoon Emma” I flash her a little smile, “how was your night?”She freezes, a look of confusion appearing on her face.“Are you okay sir?” She asks, “you..I chortle a little, I know it’s surprising to her and to everyone else that I actually smiled this morning since I came to the office. But the news of Odette being pregnant has made me so happy that I don’t know any other feeling than happiness. When she was pregnant with Zachary’s child, I can’t lie I was jealous but I was still willing to accept the child because it also belonged to Odette but now, she was carrying my child. Mine, not Zachary’s but mine. I don’t think there is anything else that would make me more happy than this. The coming days are sure to be blissful and I am all for it.“I am very fine, Emma” I tell her while checking my watch, “make sure to clear my schedule after this morning’s meeting okay? I have dinner plans with my wif
ODETTE’s POV. My hands are still trembling from before and the only thing I want now is to hug my husband and tell him how much I love him. Right now there is not Breyer or Zachary, it’s just me and Malachi, us, our world. I look at the time again and it’s already been fifteen minutes since I called him, he should be pulling up by now. Like the moon goddess is on my side, I hear the gates open and his car drives in. Excitement surges through my entire body as I manage to hold my smile. With one final look at the mirror, I pick up the bouquet of flowers that’s on the table beside me before heading over to the door. The door opens up and his familiar scent fills my nose before he appears looking dapper in his brown suit and his hair slicked back to perfection. His face immediately breaks into a smile as his eyes travel over me. “Someone is looking hot” Malachi says, “what’s the occasion baby?” “Here” I hand him the bouquet. “Guys get flowers too?” “Come on” I can’t help b
ZACHARY’s POV.Standing in front of hundreds of eyes a few days after my investigation started is actually not the right thing to do but being involved with Bryer has caused me so much already and I genuinely want my wife back. If this is the price I have to pay in order to get my wife back, I am more than willing to pay for it. The only thing I want now is to get my wife back and we can stay happy together. I am actually tired of seeing her with Malachi. I want to see her happy and smiling with me. That’s the only thing that matters to me and I don’t care how I do it, I just want her.“You can start now,” the person standing beside me says. She is Malachi’s assistant and seeing the smug look on his face as he is seated at the back of the hall aggravates me the most. I hate that he always gets the upper hand in this, I hate that I have to do this in front of him.Letting out a sigh, I clear my throat lightly before pulling the microphone towards me.“Good evening everyone and thank y
BRYER’s POV.“Due to the injury, you won’t be able to wolf out for a while” Jacquline tells me and I ball my hands into a fist, this is four days after Odette attacked me. I left the hospital after footing the bills in the Bahamas and I came straight home.For four days I have been unable to move and it’s all thanks to that bitch I am going to hold her by her neck and make sure she pays for everything she has done to me.“I made some tonic for you, you will be fine soon” Jacquline says again.“Thank you”“I will take my leave now so you can rest”“Before that” I stop her, “don’t forget what we talked about”“Of course”With a little smile, she walks off while I am left to my musing again. Odette, that motherfucking bitch. I am going to make sure she pays for what she did to me and Malachi, I won’t let him line in peace either.Someone opens my front door again, making my forehead crease into a frown.“Jacqueline?”“Would she dare come here?” A familiar voice filters into my ear and my
