ENZO’s POV. As soon as I end the call, the smirk on my lips widens as I turn my attention back to the man who is standing before me. I had finished my surgery a while ago and I was scheduled for another one in an hour but that didn’t mean I didn’t know what was going on in my house and how Nicholas snaked his hand around my wife’s waist and that was a mistake he never should have made. The more I looked at the video in front of me, the more I get pissed at it. “What do you want to do with it now, master?” Xavier asks me. “Here” I hand him back the phone, “give it to my secretary and tell her to hand it over to the media team, they know what to do with it” “Yes boss” Xavier bows and walks out of the room while I lean back on the chair as the smirk returns to my face. This time around, I am going to snatch everything about AER from Nicholas and he will wish he didn’t touch my wife in such a way. That is something I will never be able to forgive no matter what. Picking
NICHOLAS’s POV. My laugh continues to resonate in the room as all of them continues to stare back at me. I can not believe the fact that a mere alpha like Enzo has me in a tight corner like this all be Michelle. I should have known that Michelle was not the same person I married three years ago. She is more ruthless and more aggressive now, more like the bane of my existence. Not in my life did I ever think i would be in this position because the shares of AER has plummeted so much that I find it hard to believe and what more, Lucy is at the pack healer’s. The more I think about it, the more I can’t help but laugh. Enzo really laid all his cards on the table this time around and now I am not going to lie low. If he wants to go low, I am going to go much lower than he ever expected and I am going to make him pay for touching my sister the second time, I swear on the moon goddess. Pushing my body on the revolving chair “What should we do sir?” My assistant asks me, “the
ENZO’s POV. A snare leaves my mouth as I shift back to my human form, my eye’s drinking in the sight of the bodies on the ground. This is two days after slamming Nicholas with the lawsuit but he had the audacity and the nerve to attack my pack house and injure a lot of people. I was about to go in for a surgery when Izzy called me and I had to ditch everything to rush back to the pack house. Luckily for me, Michelle was not around. She and her aunt had to go to their ancestral home to pay her dead parents a visit and I was supposed to go with her but I couldn't because of the surgery. Who would have known that Nicholas would attack me like a stupid rouge like that. Groaning softly, I turn to look at the battered body beside me and my lips curl into a smirk, he is a pretty strong contender but too weak. I can’t help but wonder how he became the alpha of his pack when he is this weak and not only that, most of his pack members are also lying unconscious on the ground. It
MICHELLE’s POV. I keep pacing around the room after I drop the call. Just a few hours after I left, Nicholas dared to attack my husband. I am going to hold him by the hair and make sure to sniff the life out of him. How can he do such a cowardly thing? Was he that afraid of the lawsuits that he had to attack Enzo like that? Thinking about it, I get more worried. I just want to see him and that’s the only way I can feel better. “Keep him safe for me, moon goddess” I mutter under my breath as I continue pacing around the room. “You know this won’t help you, right?” Aunt’s voice filters into my ear and I stop to look at her, “you are pregnant Michelle, three babies inside of you, you you shouldn’t be walking around like that” “I am just worried aunt” I tell her as I swallow hard; “he sounded so weak on the phone and I won’t be able to rest if I don’t see my husband tonight” “It will take about an hour to get here, are you going to keep pacing until he comes?” “I don’t t
ENZO’s POV. The lady in my arms stiffen the moment my question reach her ear. I have known for the longest time that Maria was in love with me. I didn’t bother to act on it because I didn’t feel that way towards her and she was certainly not my type and let’s not forget the life of a wolf. The moon goddess always chose for us and she didn’t make me and Maria mates. The other reason why I didn’t act on it was because Maria didn’t act on it too and that’s one reason I respect her till date, she knew how to keep her distance and I hope it remains so. “You knew from the beginning that she loved you?” Michelle asks me after a while as I bury my face in the crook of her neck and I sniff in her scent making me groan lightly. My whole body feels weak but being next to this woman makes me feel so much better. “Hmm” I nod, “I knew from the onset” “So why didn’t you do anything about it” Is this lady being serious right now? “Why would I? I don’t love her, I love only you” “H
NICHOLAS’s POV. My eyes slightly open as a groan escapes my mouth but the scene in front of me is different from the torture jail Enzo has put me in. This time around, I am in the middle of a big forest and the lady in front of me is one that I have never seen before. She probably is the most beautiful woman I have ever set my eyes on. Her white hair is cascading down her back like a long cloak and the orange-yellow robe on her body gives me the irk of something dangerous yet attractive. I have heard tales of the moon goddess but I have not been blessed to see her yet but this woman in front of me eludes all appearance of the goddess. I continue staring back at her while she continues to tend to the rose flower in her hand. “Goddess Selene?” I finally find my voice and she abruptly halts what she is doing and turns her gaze on me, immediately I feel a chill down my spine. “How dare you call me that?” She growls in anger and starts to take slow steps towards me, “how
MICHELLE’s POV, I shoot out of bed as my eyes frantically search the room until a hand pulls me into his embrace and that is when I let out a sigh of relief as soon as his scent filters into my nose. I must have had a very bad dream because the way my body is reacting right now isn’t supposed to be so but I really can not fathom why my whole body is shaking in such a way. “Hey, calm down” his soothing voice reaches my ears as he pats my hair lightly, “you are safe okay?” “Something is not right, Enzo” I tell him, “I can feel it in my bones, something is wrong somewhere but I don’t know how to place it” I slowly pull away from him as I continue to gaze into his eyes. It was only meant to be a moment with this man but here I am married to him with our lives taking different turns each day. Now I don’t even know the direction we are headed now, everything seems so fuzzy and with the way my body is reacting, something doesn’t seem right even in the least. For the first ti
ENZO’s POV. The moment the car comes to a halt in front of the house, I see how Michelle’s face lights up the minute she sees the house in front of her. This is a house I purchased a few days ago and I am not sure if she would like it as much as I have anticipated. “Oh my gosh babe!!” Her voice jolts me out of my train of thoughts,“When did you buy this?” I open the car door for her and she hastens down before briskly walking through the house, the smile on her face widening with each step. “Do you like it?” I ask her and she turns to me with an eye roll. “Like? Babe, I love it. This is so beautiful babe, I mean look how classy and demure it looks. How much did you purchase this, Enzo?” She turns to me with a raised brow again, “clearly this is top notch and no one will sell this for less” “You don’t have to worry about the price, kitten” I tell her as I drape my hand over her shoulder, “just enjoy it” I immediately gather her into my arms and start to walk towards t
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 but smile light,
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
ODETTE’s POV.The moment a knock resonates on our door, I allow Malachi to open it while I sit on the dining table. My mind on how to make her pay for what she did. I have let her go a lot of times and she actually thinks I am a weakling. This time around, she is going to wish she didn’t mess with me again.As soon as she steps in, Malachi’s face changes for the worst, he looks disgusted.“Aren’t you going to welcome me?” She asks, “thanks to me, you are popular again”“Speak to me and not my husband” I cut her off, “I am the one who asked the receptionist to let you in. I mean shouldn’t you be allowed to crash our honeymoon since you are a distinguished guest?”I stand up and this is when Malachi’s eyes open wide the moment he sees me with the baton, even Bryer takes a step back.“I mean, you are too important for me to ask the receptionist to send you back. You caused such a scandal back in America and you jumped right on the next available plane to the Bahamas, you are something ar
MALACHI’s POV.The scent of my favorite dish finds its way into my nose as I make my way out of the room after taking a shower. I need no one to tell me who is in the ensuite kitchen because I know it’s my wife. No matter how many times I tell her not to bother about cooking, she never seems to listen but I have made peace with that. She can do whatever she pleases and I will be behind her to guild her and take care of her.Besides we are on our honeymoon, she can do as she pleases. I can only watch her and admire her, thanking the moon goddess for blessing me with a beautiful soul such as hers.“Sleepy head” her face breaks into a smile when she sees me, “i thought you wouldn’t wake up”“How can’t I?” I round the kitchen counter and snake my hands around her waist, “I have the most beautiful woman so I should always try to live up to that. This smells delicious” I look over her shoulder before pressing a kiss on her cheek“Well, you always cook for me so i decided to return the favor
ODETTE’s POV.Malachi wraps his hands around my waist while I lean into his embrace. Our hotel suite is facing the ocean directly and it looks so beautiful. Part of me wishes that we can stay here for all of eternity without having to worry about anyone or anything. We have been here for three days and I can tell you that they are the best three days of my life after my wedding.I am still in awe of how Malachi was able to come up with such an amazing wedding ceremony. I am still having the jitters from the many gifts he got me. I mean he is the best husband one can ask for and I am glad he is mine for all of eternity.“What are you thinking about, wifey?” His voice filters into my head and I can’t help but smile. Wifey! I love the sound of that.“Nothing my love, just basking in the glory of our honeymoon. I can literally not get enough of it”His soft chuckle reaches my ear and my body tingles. No matter how many times I have heard this man speak or laugh, I genuinely can't get enou
ZACHARY’s POV.The more I keep looking at the pictures, the more I feel like smashing everything in front of me to the ground. She looks happy, she looks happy with him when it should have been me, when I should be the one standing beside her and smiling like that. Malachi has his hands on my woman’s waist, fuck I want to kill him, I want to make him pay for taking her away from me.My thoughts are interrupted when a knock resonates in my ears and my assistant makes her way in.“Sir, the reporters would not leave”I let out a sigh, they have been standing in front of my gates all morning after the pictures of Odette and Malachi have been circulating around the internet. Massaging the space between my brows, I finally drop my phone and I stand up.“Since they are so nosy, let’s give them something to talk about.I am dressed in a casual pair of grey joggers and a white T-shirt but I don’t care about that, they came to meet me in my house so they will meet me as I come.“Okay sir”In no
BRYER’s POV.I angrily smash the vase on the ground and watch it shatter into a million pieces. As if that is not enough, I grab the other porcelain vase and smash it again. How can Malachi do this? How can he get married to her and that too, everyone has been talking about it. Every news house, every blog, every newspaper, everyone on the internet has been talking about Malachi Bromte’s mystery wedding.It should have been me, I should have been the one standing beside him and not that good for nothing bitch.“Fuck!!” I yell at the top of my voice, anger enveloping me. I refuse to cry, this can’t be happening. No!! Tears start to stream down my eyes. It should have been me, I am the one fit to stand beside him and love him. I have worked so hard for him to see me, for him to acknowledge me as his own but he chose some rich heiress. Didn’t he see that I also worked? I worked hard to make him see me, like me, he even became my best friend so how did we get here? How did he look me in t
ODETTE’S POV.Being in his embrace feels like a lifetime of happiness and joy, I can’t imagine myself in the arms of another. Malachi has my heart and he has it for all of eternity.How didn’t I even see through his façade of planning a ceremony for us. He didn’t even mention anything about it even by accident but I love it, I love the surprise it came with and that’s why I am tucked in his arms trying to pull myself together. I don’t even know what I am going to do without this man in my life.“Okay now?” His voice cut into my train of thought and I nod, pulling away from him.“Malachi Bromte” I start to speak, “today before our family and friends, I vow to give you all of myself, my hope, my dreams, my forever. I promise to love you fiercely, to stand by you and support you in everything you do. I promise to be your sanctuary, your biggest cheerleader and your fiercest protector” I pause for a moment, the emotions are overwhelming, I can’t believe I am standing in front of everyone.
