NATALIA’s POV.
After Nicholas is done talking to the pack members, he leaves to meet with the bounty hunters while I decide to take a tour around the pack house. It had been three years of not seeing the building, three years of being away from him, three years of letting Michele do as she pleased. Three years ago, I watched her take him away from me and I couldn't do anything. I left the pack house in shame but now I was back to take what belongs to me. No matter how tough everything gets, I must make sure Nicholas never thinks about getting back with that sister of mine anymore. I know he won’t do that, after all I have his heir growing inside of me. “Natalia” my thoughts were interrupted when I heard someone calls my name from behind me and I turn to see his sister. I almost roll my eyes, I know she didn’t like me so why won’t she keep her distance from me? “For someone who doesn’t like me, you sure pester me a lot, Lucy” I don’t bother to hide the loathing in my voice. She is quite aware that I don’t like her and she doesn’t like me too. It is a fifty -fifty situation. “Why exactly are you back, Natalia?” She asks me, “you left three years ago and now you are back. You didn’t waste time in taking Nicholas and the pack back” I scoff; even if I don’t like her, she was an intelligent woman. She understood the math completely. “At least you know what's happening, Lucy” I begin to speak again, “at least you understand that I am back to take everything Michele took away from me. The pack, Nicholas and my title as Luna. For three years, she has been enjoying what belongs to me and I am so done with that. This is my time and I will make sure to take everything from her. Did she whine to you when you left to meet her? I bet she must have cried a lot and you wanted to bring her back and ask your brother to take her back, right?” “It is the opposite, Natalia” Lucy says much to my amazement and my forehead creases into a slight frown. “What do you mean?” “I do not hate you as you think, Nat” Lucy continues, “and of course I prefer Michele to you, she has held this pack together for three years but I can not dispute the fact that you are carrying my brother’s child. I just hope you stick to that and don’t go bugging Michelle anymore. She has already signed the divorce papers and I am sure she will never come back again. You should make the most of what you have now, you don’t know what the moon goddess has planned for the future” With a smile, she nods at me and walks away leaving me to my thoughts. Right now I am not sure if she is on my side or on my sister’s side. The thought of Michelle makes my wolf growl in anger. It is a good thing that she signed the papers without any fight, she should also go through what I have gone through for years. Not interested in taking a tour again, I walk back into Nicholas’s room and I am surprised to see the bathroom door open. I wasn’t aware that he was back. “Nick?” I call out to him. “I am in here” he responds. With a smirk on my lips, I remove my clothes and also make my way into the shower with only a pair of lingerie on. As soon as I set eyes on him, I gently bit down on my lips. He looks so hot with the way the water is dripping down his body and how his abs stood impeccably on his abdomen. No matter how many times I have seen this naked body of his, I can not get enough of it. Three years was enough to make Nicholas grow into the sexy hot alpha that he is now and I have no regrets about it. “You always turn me on just by looking at you,Nicholas” I whisper into his ear while trailing the outline of his naked body with my finger, “for how long will you torment me with this baby” Nicholas snakes his hand around my thin waist and pulls me closer, a gasp escapes my lips. “What are you doing?” I ask him and his lips curl into a coy smirk. “Making you want me” he whispers before claiming my lips. His hand begins to slide down my body and he paths my legs slightly before sliding his fingers through my lacy panties, a gesture that makes my whole body shudder. “You… “Shhhh” he presses his finger against my lips, “you have missed this for three years, allow me to make a mess of you princess” Gosh, he is so sexy!! How did I cope without him for three years? How did I fucking do it? His hand continues to massage my throbbing honeypot while his lips make a mess of me. Sliding my panties to the side, he slides inside me and I groan a little. Nicholas always makes me go mad when having sex in the shower, he makes me go to the seventh heaven and back. Even the previous sex we had did have me feeling like this, I want him and I want him so bad. “Are you trying to make me go crazy now that I am pregnant?” I can’t help but ask him and a smirk appears at the base of his lips. “I want you and my baby to have a good time, princess” he rasps out, “and I know how nasty you can get” His finger continues to thrust in and out of my dripping core and I can already feel my whole body heating up. This is one thing I loved the most about Nicholas, he knows how to make me feel good and best. For a moment I imagined how he may have ravaged Michelle’s body and it immediately put me in a bad mood. I try to move away from him. He sends his finger deep inside of me and I shudder, falling into his embrace in the process. “Don’t fucking move, Natalia” he growls, “I touch you more intimately than I touch her” he whispers over my hair again before closing his lips over my already erect nipple which is still being held captive by my lady bra.MICHELLE' s POV. The beeping of my mobile resonates in my ears and I gently open my eyes before pushing my body to a sitting position. Picking up my phone, it is my aunt and for a moment I don’t know if I should answer the call. She must have heard what happened at the pack house and I know for a fact that she wants to give me an earful. The phone in my hand continues to ring and left with no other choice, I click on the receive button before pressing the phone against my ear. “Hello” “You brat” she sounds furious, “how dare you leave without even telling me, mish?” “I am sorry aunt” I say out loud, “Everything happened so fast and I didn’t have time to think, I had to leave immediately” “But why, why would you leave your home and your pack just because Natalia is back, I thought you were stronger than this my dear” “Look aunt” I rake my fingers through my wavy hair as she sigh left my lips, “Nicholas wanted me gone and I didn’t want to argue with him. He finds Natal
MICHELLE’s POV. The moment I set my eyes on them, my heart skips a beat hoping that neither of them heard what I have discussed with the doctor. My heart is beating fast against my ribcage as the two of them walk up to us. “Hello sir” the doctor stands up with respect, “I wasn’t expecting you” “I brought my fiancée for a check up” Nicholas announces and I gulped while the doctor looks at me for a split second. I am sure he must understand why I have begged him not to allow Nicolas in on what is happening. “But it seems you have a visitor” Natalia begins to speak, her eyes rolling to the back of her head and her face looking as expressionless as it can be. I understand the fact that she hates me and I don’t like her either, not when she is responsible for breaking my life into a thousand pieces. “I was just about to leave” I finally find my voice and turn to the doctor, “I will give you a call” “Why are you at the doctor?” Nicholas’s voice filters into my ear and I f
ENZO’s POV, I have just brought the car to a sudden halt in front of the hospital when the lady who is standing away from my car collapses. I rush out of the car and run towards her but by now she is already unconscious. Cussing silently, I gather her up in my arms and rush towards the hospital. I just arrived from the airport and I didn’t get a chance to go to my hotel before rushing to the hospital, apparently the patient waiting for me was getting worse. As soon as I enter the hospital, a group of doctors rush towards them and they all look surprised seeing me with a lady in my arms, i am also surprised myself but this is not the time for that. “Doctor Enzo” the hospital director bows lightly as he walks up to me. “Put her on bed rest and administer some medicine for her, she passed out just now. I will come to see hee after my operation” “Yes doctor” With one last look at the lady who is being wheeled away, I hasten towards the elevator. Time is of the essence
MICHELLE’s POV. The moment my eyes flutter open, I am shocked to see the man in front of my eyes. He has sharp features like Nicholas but his are more pronounced and his hazel eyes continue to stare back at me while his wavy hair is all over the place. I can’t lie, I am lost for words. How can a man be this beautiful apart from Nicholas! Everything about him is just so perfect that I can not take my eyes off of him, why did he have such rosy lips? Is he a vampire perhaps? A lot is going on in my head as I continue to stare at the angel in front of me forgetting that it was their noise that woke me up. “You are up” his deep and hoarse voice reached my ears and I can feel a knot in my stomach, his voice is also one to die for. For a moment my mind drifts off to Nicholas and my mood immediately dampens the things he did to me. “Who are you?” I ask him while pushing myself to a sitting position. “I am a doctor” he answers with an eyebrow. “How did I get in here?” I use
MICHELLE’s POV. The ride back to the hotel is unusually quiet, he keeps receiving calls and giving orders in a way I don’t even understand. At one time, he even flares up and I even flinch,he isn’t like his looks. He is much more different. I am also not in the mood to start up a conversation so I just focus my attention on the road head and close my eyes. The thought of Nicholas and Natalia fills my heart and I can’t help but feel worse than I already feel. The fact that he brought her to our personal doctor shows how much he wants to get rid of my thoughts and everything that concerns me. couldn’t even believe it when he ventured into the office with his hand snaked around her waist. Nicholas is in a hurry to tell the world that we no longer belong together. It is painful yet disgusting, how could he do that to me? The more I think about it, the more furious I become. “Kobo for your thoughts?” His voice filters into my ear and I abruptly turn to him, he is looking at me
ENZO’s POV. After I drop her off and ride off, my mind keeps slipping back to her. The look on her face, the tears in her eyes and her overall demeanor. There is something about her that I can not quite describe, something about her keeps drawing me closer to her and I actually want to know what that is. The moment I saw her, I knew she was a wolf. An omega for that matter, I could sense her energy and what she can do. If she is such a strong wolf, why exactly was she crying? Why did she look so sad even at that? My thoughts are interrupted when my mobile begins to ring and seeing the caller ID, I already know what’s up. “Tell me” I say out loud as soon as I click on the receive button. “The patient is already awake, doctor” the director’s voice filters into my ear. “I am on my way back to the hospital, I will be there soon” After ending the call, I press my leg against the accelerator and speed off. Being a wolf and a doctor sure comes with its perks, it is safe t
NICHOLAS’s POV. The door flings open and her cologne filters into my nostrils. I raise my head from the paper I am reading and my eyes open wide for a moment. Natalia is dressed in a silk gown that clings perfectly to her body revealing her hourglass figure and that smirk on her lips makes me remember how much I have missed her and everything about her. With each step she takes towards me, the thoughts of Michelle drifts away. Yes, this is the woman I love and want to be with. This is the woman that will make my pack into a much bigger home than Michelle could ever do. Seeing her back at the hospital, I felt numb towards her. She means nothing to me anymore and I am going to make sure I prove that to Natalia beyond reasonable doubt. I wasn’t surprised to see her at Mandy’s office, he was her doctor and she had been trying to get pregnant too. I was only surprised that she will continue to see him even after we have divorced, is she still trying to get pregnant? Is she se
MICHELLE’s POV. After my aunt left, I just lay on the bed reminiscing about what she told me. How Natalia was trying to erase everything that concerns the pack house and even the mansion. She must be trying so hard then because three years is not something you can erase so easily even though it was very easy for Nicholas to do. My thoughts are interrupted when a soft knock resonates on the door. My forehead creases into a slight frown as I pull my body out of bed, I am not expecting anyone who is actually at the door. The knock comes again and my frown intensifies. “Who is there?” I ask not moving an inch from where I am standing. “Open the door, Michelle '' that familiar voice filters into my ear and my heart skips a beat. How did he find my room number? Looking round the room for a moment, I finally walk over to the door and open it. There he is standing in front of my door with an expressionless hovering over his face. He is dressed in a
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
ODETTE’s POV.“Okay, good” I drop the fabric on the table as I stifle a light yawn, “make sure to have them produce these in much larger quantities” I tell the head of design, “we need to start working on the designs and I need all hands on deck”“Yes ma’am”“Good”It has been a week of work and I feel like my body is about to give up. Fashion week is just a week away and I am trying to handle everything. Dad said he would be back in three days since mum was fine now. Jayden was taking care of London’s fashion week and I am the only one here.Remind me to completely wash my hands off anything that concerns work when everyone comes back.“What time is it?” I ask again.“It’s past eight ma’am”“Wow!!”“Let’s revise the plan again and we can call it a day”“Sure ma’am, I will get everyone to the conference room”Walking out of the store room, I take the elevator to my office and my jaw drops when I walk in and I see Malachi seated on the couch, his attention on his phone.“You didn’t te
BRYER’s POV.She actually asked him to let me go and he did without saying anything. How did the two of them meet and become entangled? Malachi is mine and I can not just allow someone from the goddess knows where to come and take him away from me. How did the spell even break? She ensured me that we would remain mates forever so how did the fucking spell break?“Fuck this” I mutter under my breath as I angrily fling the phone on the bed. I have tried calling Malachi for what seems like ages but he didn’t respond nor did Mason. For Mason not to accept my call, it meant Malachi had already told him what happened.This isn’t supposed to happen, Malachi and I were supposed to have our ceremony and become official mates, how could this..My attention shifts to the door that has just opened and Zach saunters into the room with his phone to his ear, he looks like he is having an important call.He hasn’t asked me anything about how I knew Malachi and I am hoping he doesn’t ask. One thing a
ODETTE’s POV.The moment he opens the door and I saunter into the house, I come face to face with Mason who has a huge smile on his face and this makes me frown. Okay, so why is he smiling at me like that when he has never?“Welcome back, sister in law” he said to me and I turn to Malachi who is busy trying to stifle a smile.“Do you want some water?”“Okay, what’s going on here?” My eyes dart across the two of them, “why are you trying to be nice to me when we both know you don’t like me”“It’s not like I hate you, sister in law” he says again, “I just……Malachi told me what happened and I am really sorry about that. I didn’t…..“You told him?” I turn to Malachi who nods“Yes, he needs to understand”Sucking on my lower lip lightly, I return my attention to Mason again.“It’s fine, I didn’t expect you to just accept me on seeing me. I know you had a long history with Bryer and all”“It still wasn’t reasonable for me to act the way I did. Permit me to make amends to you, I
ODETTE’s POV.Seated on the bed, my whole attention is on the computer in front of me. I didn’t stay long in Texas after what happened because I had to rush back to oversee the company and I was too angry to stay with Malachi. I wasn’t upset with him, it wasn’t his fault and it wasn’t like anything happened. I even asked him to let Bryer go, to show her how much power I have over her mate. I didn’t realize our parts would become tangled one day and now.The intercom on the table rings out lightly, jolting me out of my thoughts.“Hello”“Ma’am” the receptionist’s voice filters through, “your husband is here to see you”“My husband?” A scowl settles on my face.“Yes ma’am”“Let him in”After a few seconds, the door opens up and Zachary saunters in. He is dressed in a navy blue suit that looks good on him. His hair is slicked back nicely. This was the man I was drooling over, the one who had my heart in a chokehold, the one I was ready to do anything and everything for.Looking at him
MALACHI’s POV.After reviewing the last document, I close the book before pressing my back against the chair, closing my eyes in the process. I had to fly back to Texas early this morning because something happened at the pack house I had to take care of. Apparently a rogue park attacked my pack last night and left a few injured people. I was tired of sending them warnings and maybe now I should teach them a lesson that it’s not all packs they can go to attack like that.A knock on the door makes me open my eyes.“Alpha” someone calls from outside.“Come in, Blaise!” I urge him and he immediately ventures into the room with a slight bow.Blaise is my beta and he is one good kid, very good if you ask me.“What is it, Blaise?”For a moment my mind drifts off to Odette. I already miss her, she couldn’t come with me because she has to take care of the company. I want to finish early and go back to her. Last night was so overwhelming for her and I still feel angry about it. The nerve of Br
ODETTE’s POV.Standing in front of the house I once shared with Zach as my husband, I am contemplating whether to go in or just go back.I don’t want to go back to the family house and I do not want to go back to a hotel. Going back to Malachi’s house is not an option, a lot has happened today and we needed time away from each other. I touch that spot on my neck and a sigh leaves my mouth.“Should we really do this?” My wolf asks me and I nod, it’s not like Zach is here and I need to get my things from here.Making up my mind, I make my way towards the house. Putting in the password, I jerk the door open and a sight as disgusting as shit greets me. I stumble back a few feet away from the mess in front of me. Zach, deep inside her having sex on the sofa right in front of me. What the actual heck? When did he even come to New York? A lot of questions are in my head as I continue to look at them, disgust clearly written on my face.The two of them turn to me and I can see the smirk linge
