MICHELLE’s POV. My eyes immediately water as soon as I set my eyes on the light blue dress in front of me. The ethereal beauty emanating from it is one to die for. This is the most gorgeous dress I have seen in my life. I can’t help but run my hands through the delicate fabric as my eyes travel around it. I can not even begin to describe the beauty and the extravagance of this dress in front of me. Clearly It is something out of this world and something no one would be able to recreate again. “You like it?” Maria, who is standing beside me, asks. “Like? I nod my head in the negative, “This is the most beautiful dress I have seen in my life, maria” I tell her, “this is heaven, I mean Enzo has brought heaven right to me because this looks amazing” “The boss spent days making this dress ma’am” she tells me, “he personally handpicked the materials and every stitch you see on it, every embroidery embedded on it are all done by hand, by the boss himself and every line you see
ENZO’s POV. “Done” Izzy says as she helps me fix my tie, “you look so good, brother” “Thank you” I flash her a smile. “How I wish mum and dad could see you now, they would be so proud of you” “I am sure they are watching us right now” I tell her as I gently pat her hair, “I am sure of that” “Hmmm” I see tears well up in Izzy’s eyes and my heart breaks into a thousand pieces. I know the reason why those tears are in her eyes, she has been asking since yesterday and I finally told her. She was clearly my only blood on earth now and it was important that I did. At least I know she is now prepared for what is to come. “Enzo?” She calls out my name gently again as she slowly grabs a hold of my hand. “Yes” I turn my head towards her, “wanna tell me something” “Must you do this?” Izzy asks, “we can find another way, Michelle will be heartbroken if anything goes wrong. She will never forgive us and… “I am not planning on dying, Izzy” I laugh gently, “but even if I do, sh
MICHELLE’s POV. “Thank you” I say to the lady who has just given me a drink of water from the refrigerator in my room. “You are welcome ma’am” she bows lightly and in no time she is out of the room while the look on my face remains expressionless as I continue to stare back at myself in the mirror. “It is time to walk down the aisle, sister In law” Izzy tells me as she helps to readjust the silver crown on my head. “Is there something you are not telling me, Izzy?” I ask as I turn away from the mirror and turn my head towards her and I see a look of confusion flash through her face. “What do you mean sister in law?” My mind drifts off to what Natalia told me a few minutes ago. I had no idea she was on the yacht with us, Enzo didn’t make mention of that. Even before we left the house In his private jet, I requested to meet Natalia but he refused and wouldn’t let me. Natalia had told me something about Enzo but I didn’t quite understand it and when I wanted to ask her, I
MICHELLE’s POV. I frantically open my eyes as a slight groan leaves my mouth and I push myself to a sitting position, my eyes searching the room frantically and my teeth clenching in anxiety. I try to push my body out of bed but the pain lingering in my stomach halts me and I wince in pain. For a moment, memories of what happened flash through my head but I am unable to decipher anything because the last I remember was someone covering my eyes. “Enzo?” His name rolls out of my lips as my eyes dart across the room. Neither is his scent lingering anywhere or can I feel a sense of him. “Enzo?” I call out again and immediately the door pushes open and my heart skips a beat.. A sigh of disappointment leaves my lips when I see Izzy saunter into the room. “Sister in law” a small smile appears on her face, “you are awake” “Where is Enzo, Izzy?” I ignore the pain lingering in my tummy as my eyes continue to search her face for an answer. Right now, the only person I want to
ENZO’s POV. I have just stepped out of the shower when my mobile begins to ring again. In the past three days, I have been receiving a lot of calls and I know this is also linked to it. What happened on the yacht caused a huge stir on the internet and I have done a lot to bring down some of the news. Luckily the part of either of us being a supernatural being is still under wraps but the headlines were all about Avanti and the bloodbath. Thinking back about it, I actually didn’t do anything to stop the situation on board, I was only concerned about my wife and her safety. Luckily those who were hurt were all taken to the hospital on time and it wasn’t so severe, only I suffered a major hit. Thinking about it now, it kind of hurts a little but the pack healer is doing a good job in managing it at least until I am able to get an antidote for it. Adeline, that bastard!! I jolt back from my thoughts again when the beeping of my mobile reaches my ear again and I click
MICHELLE’s POV. I was getting tired of waiting for Enzo to come back and I decided to go and meet him only for me to hear what had happened and he didn’t even tell me. He decided to keep it a secret from me for reasons best known to him. How dare he hide something so important from me? Looking at the two of them, I felt like giving Enzo a tight slap across the face. “Hey” a fake smile appears on his face, “thought you said you were not coming down?” “So you could lie your way around again?” I ask with a raised brow while walking towards him. The pain in my stomach has not completely gone so I am walking as slow as I can be, not wanting to intensify it. “So you clearly didn’t tell her?” A mocking smirk appears on Nicholas’s face as he folds his hands across his chest, “you always want to play the good guy, don’t you!” “I wasn’t talking to you, Mr woodsborn” I snap at him, “so get the fuck out of my face and why are you even here? Aren’t you supposed to be mourning for
NICHOLAS’s POV. Finally, I see her fragile figure walking up the alley towards her house, an airpod stuck to her ear and her attention on her phone. I have been waiting for her for quite some time now and luckily she is back. I have an inkling that whatever she is looking at in her phone is somewhat related to her love interest and it makes me all giddy with excitement. Looking at her, I can’t help but wonder what she loves so much about that bastard. That same bastard that I want to kill and send back to the moon goddess. After a while, she comes to a halt in front of me and her forehead creases into a frown when she sees me. Removing the AirPod from her ear, a scowl also appears on her face. “You? What are you doing here?” “Hmmm, this is where you live?” I ask her, “isn’t it too simple for someone working with Avanti?” “I asked you a question Mr woodsborn” Maria rolls her eyes, “what are you doing here and how did you find my house?” “It was pretty easy” I tell
ENZO’s POV. My eyes flutter open and I am somewhat surprised to see Michelle in front of me with a huge smile on her face. Yesterday she refused to sleep in our room and opted to stay with her aunt and left me sulking all night. I didn’t want to regret bringing her aunt but as soon as the lady came, she took my wife away from me and I was not happy about it. Seeing her smiling back at me now, I feign anger and just continue staring back at her. “Good morning hubby” Michelle’s voice reaches my ears as she presses a kiss on my forehead, “I hope you had a good night's sleep?” “As if” I roll my eyes to the back of my head, “didn’t you leave me because of your aunt?” “Of course I did” she answers nonchalantly, “next time you hide things from me, I will send you packing out of my house” My eyes open wide for a moment, is she trying to exercise her rights now? This woman is surely a Willy one. “I never expected you to change so soon” “Of course” she laughs heartily and my
ZACHARY’s POV.I angrily throw the documents on the table and all the board members flinch, my eyes travel around the room before settling on the man standing on the podium.“Is this what you have to offer me?” I ask him, “one whole week and this is the rubbish you fucking bring to me?”No one says anything and this angers me the most, do they all think I pay them to laze around and just.. Pulling myself from the chair, I grab my phone.“If you are all not competent enough, I will have the lot of you replaced”“Mr Hills” one of them finally speaks up, “the company is in on the rise now, i believe we can make the most out of this if we decide to partner with Echo”A deep frown forms on my face as I tighten my jaw together. That name is the bane of my existence.“Find other Investors” I tell them, “or you all can submit your resignation letter”With that I storm out of the conference room. It’s been a while since I finally brought my company to the limelight and of course it is doing we
ODETTE’s POV.With a heavy sigh, I plop down on the chair as the two of them continue to stare back at me like they do not know me. This is the main reason why I didn’t tell any of them because I know they will get hyper sensitive about everything.“You know you didn’t have to fly back because of this right?” I ask Jayden, “it’s not as serious as you think”“Are you kidding me?” Kayden flares up, “all this was going on and you didn’t deem it fit to let us know? I would have killed that bastard myself if you told me earlier”“I can handle Zach on my own” I tell them, “now can we stop discussing this? Mum gave me an earful earlier today and the two of you won’t let me rest too. I have a lot on my plate right now and I can not think if anything else”“How is Malachi treating you?”“That question reminds me of mum” I say to the both of them and I see how their gaze drops. The fact that mum had gone through the same thing and I am also going through it means the moon goddess is quite aware
ZACH’s POV.After dropping the call, anger surge through me. I know this can only be Odette’s doing and I am not going to forgive her this time around but one thing, Bryer has to tell me why she went there. It could make sense since he was her alpha but why didn’t she tell me before leaving?Grabbing my jacket from the stand, I hasten out of the house and in no time, I am on my way to imperial regency. I didn’t know Malachi owned that property.It is the most expensive property in the whole of the country with its taxes being the highest too. He is trying to show off? I will show him that I can also make a name for myself. I have already started, it is just a matter of time before both our names are placed side by side.Twenty minutes later, I drive into the compound and I see Bryer seated on the porch, she shoots up from the chair as soon as she sees me and rushes into my embrace. Tears are glistening in her eyes and my anger skyrockets. Should he embarrass me in this way? What has B
BRYER’s POV.An hour agoI can not let him go without a fight, I have had our whole life planned out for us. He would mate me and we would travel the world together. I can’t let him leave, not like this.After Zach finishes his call and comes back Into the room, I am already in the shower but I had left a glass of juice for him.“Are you taking a shower?” He calls out to me.“Yes, I kept some juice for you. Make sure to take it”“Yes”I know Zach and I know how ruthless he can be. He is one of the worst wolves on earth after Malachi. Dealing with him requires a deep level of understanding and patience which is what I am doing. Before he finds out anything about me and Malachi, I should get my mate back. If I knew I would be pushing her towards my Malachi, I would never have suggested the divorce to him or made our relationship known.Looking back at myself In the mirror, I can’t help but smirk lightly. I look too good and I know Malachi would not be able to take his eyes off me when h
ODETTE’s POV.The moment I enter my room, I slump on the bed and I allow my thoughts to run wild. Zach had the nerve and he didn’t only do that, he brought her along with him. Believe me, I wanted to tear them into pieces. Who told him he could come and he could bring her. I was so mad and it was because Malachi was there that I was able to keep calm.My door opens up and Malachi saunters into the room. Looking at him, my face breaks into a smile. He has the ability of shifting my mood no matter how shitty it is.“Hey baby” he plops down on the bed beside me, “thought you said you wanted to shower?”“Well, here I am still seated and upset about the fact that that bastard came for the event, he also brought that bitch along with him”“What should we do to alleviate this mood of yours, my love?” He kisses the tip of my nose lightlyHe is smiling and he looks so cute. One thing with Malachi is the fact that he would never discuss things that make me upset, I have noticed that with him co
BRYER’s POV.I stand there gritting in anger as Malachi leads her to his Maybach and in no time, the two of them zoom off the premises.I am about to lose my fucking mind and there he goes with another lady in his car. It should have been me sitting with him in that car and not that lady who was dumped by Zach. It should be me if only that witch did her job well.I clench my teeth in anger trying to calm myself until a hand snake around my waist and Zach’s face comes into view.“Sorry for keeping you,” he says, beaming smiles.“It’s fine. Are you done?”“Yes, we should… the words hang in his mouth when some reporters rush over to us and I can’t help but roll my eyes. Do they never get tired of bombarding people with their stupid questions?“Mr Zach, is it true that you and your wife Mrs Odette got divorced?”“What led to your divorce sir?”“Is this lady the new woman?”“Please say something sir”Their questions are getting on my nerves. Who says I am the other woman? I have known Zach
MALACHI’s POV.After she leaves, the smirk on my face dies off and I return my attention to the bastard still standing in front of me. Who the hell does he think he is? Coming in front of my woman and acting like this? Is he tired of living? I will break him into a million pieces if he dares to go in front of her again, that’s how possessive I have become over the past few days. I want him to know that she is mine and mine alone.“I should have known something was up that day, the way you kept looking at my wife”“Ex wife” I correct him, “don’t say it like you are even worth the air that she breathes, do you understand what I am saying to you, Zachary? How dare you come here, how dare you come in front of her? You are fucking lucky that I did not tear you up when I can’t to save her from your dungeon”“What?” His eyes open wide for a moment, “it was you?”I take a step close to him, I am a bit taller than him so naturally I will look down on him,“What did you think?”“How dare you en
ODETTE’s POV.As soon as I hear what she said, anger envelopes me and the urge to slap Zach hard across the face surge through me. How did he even get here? I didn’t send him an invitation so how dare he? How could he be so shameless to show his face here? A lot of “how could he” is going in my head as I clench my jaw together.“How did he even get in here?” I walk to the door where Malachi is still standing, “I don’t remember sending him an invitation”“Calm down baby” Malachi turns to me, “remember you don’t need any stress right now”“He shouldn’t be here, malachi” I tell him, “how did he….He pulls me into his embrace and envelopes me there. Why the heck am I panicking? He is the one who committed a dirty act and showed up here, he should be ashamed and not me“Hey baby, you need to calm down” he whispers over my hair, patting my back lightly, “please”“You may leave” he tells her again and she closes the door behind her leaving the two of us.Malachi slowly pulls away from me bu
MALACHI’s POV.From the foot of the stage, I see her walk onto the stage looking so beautiful in her black body-con mesh dress with a slit running up her thighs. The dress is clinging onto her body perfectly, accentuating her hourglass figure. Her makeup is mild but looks so perfect on her and the red rouge on her lips make me want to pull her into my embrace and kiss her until no trace of that red lipstick is visible.My lips curl into a small smile as I continue to stare back at her, she is mine, my woman.The hall is already filled up, how I wish I could spend a little time with her before the show starts. She has been busy for most part of the day, same as me and we only got to speak through the phone.“Sister in law looks so pretty” Mason whispers into my ear and my heart swells with pride, I am glad that he is finally warming up to her.“I know right” I answer, “and she is mine to say the least”“Look at you being all proud” he says again and I smirk.My gaze returns to her agai
