MICHELLE’s POV. Sitting in front of the doctor, my heart continues to beat fast against my rib cage. How I wish Enzo was here with me but he has a meeting that he can not miss but he promised to be here soon. With him beside me, I will surely feel better because right now; my whole being is in turmoil. The old man clears his throat before raising his head to meet my gaze. “Miss Michelle” he presses forward against the chair and drops the document on the table, “I have gone through your file” “What did you find?” Lawrence asks him. “It is just as you have said, we can not delay the surgery anymore, you have less than a week to live. The tumor has covered every part of your womb” My heart drops to my feet as his words filter into my ear. This is not the kind of news I was expecting, I thought a miracle was going to happen but I guess I am only a pawn in the hands of the moon goddess. “So I am going to die?” “It is a very slim chance, ma’am” the old doctor says, “we
ENZO’s POV. Sitting in front of the sea of eyes before me, my mind is not even on the meeting going on right now. Michelle went into surgery four hours ago and how I want to be there for her but I am stuck in this meeting which she made me promise to attend. Looking back at my watch, I still have an hour before everyone is done with their pitch and I am not sure how long I can take it anymore. “Can you not go a little faster?” My voice resonates in the entire room and the man on the podium bows a little. “Yes sir” he answers and I roll my eyes at him as my thoughts go back to Michelle. I want to be beside her and let her know that everything will be fine. My thoughts are interrupted when the mobile in front of me begins to ring and when I see the caller ID, my heart skips a beat. Michelle is surely putting me on my toes. I pick up the phone and press it against my ear. “Tell me” “There is trouble, Enzo” Lawrence says from the other end and I immediately jump out of
ENZO’s POV. TWO DAYS LATER. I groan lightly as I push my body out of the chair, my head is throbbing so badly and I just need to rest it for a while but how can I? It has been two days already and Michelle is yet to wake up. Lawrence has told me it would take some time for her to wake up but I am getting apprehensive about it and most especially because she is pregnant, she can’t be out for too long. “You need to take some rest or you will break down yourself” my wolf advises but I completely ignore it and pick up my phone before dialing a number. “Send all the files to my email, I will check them out today” “Okay sir” my assistant answers from the other end, “one of the models has been involved in an accident sir, I have been calling you but you didn’t answer. She has been rushed to the hospital” I let out a heavy sigh, the show is in a week’s time and a model is involved in an accident? “How bad is the accident?” “I am not sure she will be able to perform sir”
MICHELLE’s POV. “I can walk by myself” I tell Enzo two days later as soon as the car comes to a halt in front of the mansion but he will hear nothing of it. He alights from the car before gathering me up in his arms and making his way into the house. Ever since I woke up two days ago, Enzo has not allowed me to even do anything, he was up and about for me and I couldn't be more thankful. I am even more thankful for the fact that his blood was all the remedy I needed, the fact that he saved me and gave me a new leash on life. If I could ask for one thing from the moon goddess, it would be to keep Enzo happy for the rest of his life because he has shown me what Nicholas couldn’t in three years. When I was in coma, I kept hearing his voice everyday and I wanted to wake up and tell him how grateful I am to have him in my life. I was scared that I wouldn’t be able to open my eyes again but when I did and I saw him in front of me, I was overly excited and happy and now being i
MICHELLE’s POV. The scent of something yummy filters into my nostrils and I slowly open my eyes to see Enzo dropping a tray of breakfast on the bedside table. My face breaks into a smile as soon as I see him, he is my morning dose of happiness. He is dressed in a gray suit and his hair is pulled back in a neat bun, I genuinely can not take my eyes off of him. How can one look so good even in the morning? “Good morning princess” he says and presses a kiss on my lips. “I haven’t even brushed yet” I can’t help but whine and he scoffs. “I know that and I don’t care” he straightens up and pats my hair lightly, “have some breakfast and have your medication. They will arrive soon and you can use them as you please. I have an important meeting this morning which I can not miss” “Do not worry about me, Enzo” I tell him, “I will be fine” “Sure about that?” “Hmmm” I nod, “even if I am not fine, you will be the first person to know that” “Of course” he flashes me a smile, “M
NICHOLAS’s POV. As soon as he ends the call, I fling my phone on the couch and ball my hands into a fist. How dare he talk to me in that manner? Does he know who I am? The more I think about it, the more angry I get. How dare he? So now Michelle thinks she can speak to me as she wants because her little boyfriend is acting like a boss? I am quite sure he doesn’t know who I am and that’s why he must think that I am on the same level with him. Oh, how I will hold him and tear him into a million pieces. I pick up my phone to call her again but I decide against it, I really do not want to hear his annoying voice again. The opening of my door jolts me out of my train of thoughts and I see Pete and Winston walk into my study. “Master” they both bow lightly. “I don’t remember calling for you” I tell the two of them as a frown appears on my face, “why are you here?” “A ruckus is going on at the pack house, master” Pete answers and the frown on my face intensifies. “What
MICHELLE’s POV. The time is already past ten and Enzo is not back yet. Since he left in the afternoon, I have called him four times and his assistant picked every single time telling me he is in a meeting. I know Enzo told me he would be very busy but right now I feel like he is avoiding my calls since he left angrily. I don’t even know what to do and how to go about it, I don’t even know his office. Pressing my back against the couch, I pick up my phone to call him but the sound of the front door opening catches my attention and my eyes immediately light up but seeing Xavier, I can’t help but give a dampening sigh. I actually thought Enzo was the one coming home to me. “Luna” he bows lightly and my heart skips a beat, the name Luna sounds a bit foreign to me now. “I came to get a few things for Enzo” His statement makes a scowl to appear on my face, “What do you mean?” “I guess he will be overworking today, he asked me to get something from his room” The frown o
ENZO’s POV. The moment Michelle cups my hardness through my pants, my body shudders as I lean into her embrace and deepen the kiss. With each stroke of her hand against my pants, my whole body shakes and my mind is clouded. I have imagined being inside of her for a thousand times and right now, I don't think I can stop myself, not when my wolf is already groaning inside of me. I snake my hand around her waist and pull her in, the kiss deepening in the process as I find her tongue and suck on it gently giving me an edge over her. I can hear her silent moans and groans in my mouth as I continue to suck on her tongue while gently removing the button of her shirt. I am not going to fuck this epitome of grace in front of me, I am going to make love to her. The kind of love making that Nicholas has not given her, the kind of sex that will make her want me for all eternity. With this at the back of my head, I slowly pull away from her but with our faces only an inch apart.
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
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
