MICHELLE’s POV. Seeing my husband looking all dashy and too good to be true on the runway, I can't help but feel proud of him. Is there anything this man can not do? He is the epitome of grace and poise, I will forever be thankful to the moon goddess for bringing him my way. Each outfit is a fight against the other and the moment he is done, I immediately make my way to his dressing room because looking at him from that runaway, I already want to pounce on him. I want to show him how much I love and adore him, I want to show him that through my actions and not my words but what I didn’t expect is that his Junior sister will walk in on us with one of my peaks in his mouth. The moment I see Izzy saunter into the room, I immediately push Enzo off and pull my dress upwards while his own gaze darkens as he turns his attention to the intruder. “I am….I…sor…” Izzy’s voice keeps trailing off and I can totally understand why. I would have also been in that kind of situation if I am
MICHELLE’s POV. With a heavy sigh, I slump on the bed and close my eyes for a moment to relax. Tonight has been very hectic and all I want to do is just lay in bed and sleep. After I left Natalia at the packing lot, Enzo and I attended some interviews and finally the first day of the show came to an end. A few reporters still swooned around us even after everything was over and we still had to take some pictures. I have never been in front of so much people before and with the way Enzo showed he was doting on me, I should expect more of that kind of attention. After a few minutes, I push myself out of bed before getting out of my clothes. I should take a shower before Enzo finishes his call. The moment I step into the shower and the water pours down on my body, I let out a slight moan of relief, I actually need this. As the water continues to pour, my mind drifts off to what Mustapha told me. The fact that Natalia is acquainted with them troubles me a lot and more abo
MICHELLE’S POV. After a few seconds, doctor Lawrence finally looks up from his computer and his gaze rests on me, He presses forward on the chair before pushing his computer towards me. “Here” he points at the screen, “this is the lining of your womb and it’s a little weak since the tumor. It has been like that for a while now it’s nothing to be concerned about” “Is that why I had that pain yesterday?” “Hmm” he nods, “everything is fine and your babies are absolutely fine, you don’t have anything to worry about” I finally let out a sigh, thanks to the moon goddess. “I have also prescribed some new drugs for you, this is the second month of your pregnancy, you will need them” “Thank you so much doctor Lawrence” “You are welcome, make sure to take a lot of rest. You need it, you are carrying triplets inside of you, we can’t take the risk” “Of course” After a few other discussions, I pull my body out of the chair and make my way out of the office. Enzo left for
MICHELLE’s POV. It is already past eight and Enzo is not home yet. I have called him several times but he didn’t respond, Maria also told me that he has left the venue. Did he go straight to the pack house? I am not so sure because I told him to come straight home and the Enzo I know will never make me worry. I turn around to pick up my phone and this is when I see Izzy’s call coming through and my heart skips a beat. I hastily pick up the phone and click on the receive button before pressing it against my ear. “Michelle” her voice filters through, “I don’t have much time but Enzo is here at the pack house and he won’t see anyone or talk to anyone. He came in thirty minutes ago and has since locked himself up in his room and has refused to come out” “I am on my way now” I immediately drop the phone and grab the car keys before heading out of the room. The moment I step out, an unknown man bows to me and from the look of things, he is completely human. “I am the ne
ENZO’s POV. AN HOUR AGO. As soon as I shut the door, I slump on the floor and bury my face in my hands. Today was just as hectic as the day before but right now that is the least of my problems right now. It is already past eight and any moment from now, I will be experiencing the worst pain ever and the worst primal instinct ever. For the past ten years, this has been my comfort zone. This has been the room that held my pain and anxiety for the past ten years and here I am today, trying to hide away from the world as usual. A soft knock on the door jolts me out of my train of thought and immediately her scent filters into my nose, I immediately know who is behind the door and my wolf growls inside of me. “Go away, Izzy” I tell her, “I am not in the mood to listen to talk to anyone” “You can not just hide in there Enzo, come out and let’s talk about this” “Go and take care of yourself, Izzy” I tell her again, “we will talk in the morning” This is the place I am mea
ENZO’s POV. Regret wash over me as I sit staring down at the unconscious woman on my bed. Immediately she fell unconscious twenty minutes ago, I immediately came back to my senses and rushed her back to the pack house. It is already very late and calling Lawrence to come here is going to be an impossible task. One rule, no humans are allowed at the pack house. I have checked her pulse and everything seems normal but she is still not waking up and I am not so sure about the babies. From the injuries on her body, I must have hurt her so badly and now I can not even look at her face. She looks so weak and so feeble right now, I wish I can turn back the hands of time and right my wrongs. I shouldn’t have hurt her or even looked at her. “It was not your fault” my wolf tells me but it’s voice makes me more annoyed, it is my fault, everything. But rules can be broken, can’t there? For her I am ready to go to the end of the world and right now, if her world ends then mine ends a
MICHELLE’s POV. As soon as Enzo envelopes me in his arms, I instantly feel alive. When I woke up earlier and I didn’t see him, it felt like my whole life had been shattered into a thousand pieces and what's more, my heart broke when I heard him saying he could not come see me. How can he leave me alone when I am in this condition? Shouldn’t he be by my side so I will feel better? But right now, it is not about me. This man is literally shaking in my arms and I know why, he is scared. “Are you okay?” His voice filters into my ear as he pulls away from me gently, “are you fine? Did something happen to the babies? Are you….” Enzo’s voice trails off when I don’t say anything and just continue staring back at me, this man literally has tears well up in his eyes. “If you badly wanted to know how I was doing, why did you refuse to come and see me?” I ask him. “I am sorry, Michelle” his voice comes out almost in a whisper, “I was just…. “You look a mess, baby” I cup his face in
MICHELLE’s POV, “Here you go ma’am” Maria says as she hands me the documents, “and Mr Nicholas is waiting for you in the conference room, everything is ready as per your instructions” “Good, get the car ready” I tell her, “I will speak with him and we will move” “Okay ma’am” Tucking the paper she has just given me into my bag, I make my way to the conference room and there Nicholas is standing next to the window, his gaze on the busy road ahead. “I don’t think this is the right place for you to be, Mr woodsborn” I tell him the moment I drop my bag on the glass table. He turns his attention to me and an expressionless look is hovering over his face, a look I am sure Enzo is responsible for. “You look absolutely stunning in this outfit, Michelle” he says out loud, his voice making me cringe, “but I am not here to admire you. You and Enzo are lucky that Lucy is recovering fast or I swear I would have destroyed the two of you” I can’t help but laugh as I lower myself o
ODETTE’s POV.“Good morning mum” the two of us air kiss before she helps me to sit. After Malachi left for Texas this morning, I decided to come stay home until he gets back. It was not a decision I made on my own, he made me promise to come back home to my parents until he gets back and I did. It’s been so I decided to come see my parents.“Where is dad?” I ask mum.“He has a meeting in his study” she replies, “let me make you some soup. You can go and say hi to him”“Okay mum”I watch her walk towards the kitchen before I also walk towards the elevator. They have a lot of servants but mum always prefers to cook for us and for dad. Dad has practically stopped asking her not to go to the kitchen. Anything to make his wife happy.As soon as I push dad’s door open, his face lights up and a smile spreads across it.“Who do we have here?” He asks, removing the glasses that is perched beautifully on his face. This man, he can give other older handsome men a run for their money because wha
BRYER’s POV.He has gone against everything that I believe in, my love and my hatred for him. He killed Rome, the only person who saw me as family in this damned world. He killed him and sent his body to me. For this, I will make him pay. I love him but he has made a mistake, a mistake that I will never be able to forgive. Maybe this is what we need, becoming arch enemies.I didn’t bat an eyelid taking the battered body of Rome to his front door. I want him to always remember what he did and how Rome looked when he died. I want Malachi to always remember that he is a murderer and he will pay for what he did. I love him to death but I also hate him in the same way.“Malachi!!” I continue to yell out his name, not caring if he is sleeping. I mean, how can he sleep? He killed one of his kind, he must face the consequences of his actions and I will take my revenge on him. Up until now I have been holding back because I love him and I want to be with him but now I am going to make it my li
MALACHI’s POV.For the rest of the night, I can’t even keep my eyes off of her. She looks beautiful, so extraordinary, like someone straight out of the painting. Everything on her body is spectacular and she can give every fucking model a run for their money.When we entered the restaurant to have dinner, I couldn't help but notice the waiters ogling at her like they wanted to eat her whole but they were wise enough to keep their stupid fantasies to themselves.“How did you enjoy dinner?” I ask her on our way home, a huge grin on her face.“Well” she shrugs, “it was good but the most exciting part is that I got to spend enough time with you today. I mean I loved every single moment of it. Thank you so much baby, I really appreciate everything you do for me”“Well, I live to please” I pull her closer and press a gentle kiss on her forehead, “now we have to get you home and Into bed. You need all the rest you can get okay?”“Of course my love”Odette leans into my embrace and closes he
ODETTE’s POV.As soon as the car pulls up in front of the building, my jaw fucking drops to the ground. This is the Lincoln Center for the performing Arts, one of the most notable opera houses in New York City. I have never been here but I love operas. I guess it’s one of the perks of living amongst humans.“What are we doing here, Mason?”“Well” he shrugs, “don’t really know”Someone opens the car door for me and helps me step out.“Mrs Hernandez, we have been waiting for you” he says and I flash him a smile, “I am in charge of taking you inside to your seat”“Okay?” My eyes dart across the two men.“I am Brandon, I will be your chaperone for tonight”“Is my husband here?” I start to look around but I didn’t see a sign of him or his car.“We will have to go inside to see that” he flashes me a toothed smile again as Mason comes to stand beside me.“Sister in law, I will come at exactly eight to pick you up, okay?”“You aren’t coming in?”“Of course not”With a nod, he turns around and
ODETTE’s POV.We all watch in horror as the man hands me the card and I cringe when I read it.Even if you go away from me, even if you are a million places away from me, I still love you Odette. I have never stopped loving you and I hope you find a place in your heart to forgive me. This is me wishing you a happy anniversary”The more I read, the more I cringe. What the hell? Did he actually write this? So cliche and so bad, it doesn’t even bring a smile to my face.“I think you need to take these back, Mr” I tell him, “return them to the person who sent you”“I don’t think…“Take them away” Malachi growls, “and I mean now” his eyes darken and I know he is trying to hold himself from getting upset. I can’t even blame him, I mean how can my ex husband send me a truck load of flowers to my new husband’s house? Is he insane?“You should take these away before I put my hands on you” Kayden tells him and the man fidgets a little.“Okay sir”We all watch as he drives off and I let out a h
MALACHI’s POV.Today, I planned to stay at home all day with my wife, watching her favorite movies and fucking her into oblivion but a certain police commissioner couldn’t do his job, now here I am fully dressed up in my suit sitting across from him. The click click of my ball pen cuts through my train of thought and I realise I had been talking to me.“What did you say?” I ask him.“My apologies for what happened, Mr Bromte” he says again and I scoff.“Tell me what actually happened? You said it was safe right? How did someone get their hands on it?”“We are still trying to find that person, Mr Bromte” he says again, “I will keep you posted on…“Do I look like a fool to you?” I cut him off and a look of uncertainty flashes through his face. One thing I can not tolerate is someone lying to me, I hate it, I hate it so much that it makes my blood boil and the only thing I want to do now is grab him by the neck and make him spill the truth. Aside the fact that I try to do things in order
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
