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
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
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.“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
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.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.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
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
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.
MALACHI’s POV.Seeing her cry, seeing her shed tears made me so upset and how I want to bang both their heads together for making her cry.“Is that the best you can come up with?” I ask the two of them.“What did you expect?” Jayden chips in, “she is so loved up when it comes to you, she wouldn’t even leave the house”“Even though, using aunt as bait is not something I agreed to”“Well, sorry about that” Jayden says, “but you must not know, mum is sick too. She was at the pack healer since. She told us not to tell Odette because she didn’t want her to worry about her”Before I can respond to him, Odette bursts out of the hall running towards me.“Babe” she comes to a halt in front of me, an excited look on her face, “dad, mum..“Calm down, honey” I gently cup her face, “okay?”“It’s a fucking wedding ceremony baby” Odette beams, excitement written all over her face, “the hall, it’s our ceremony and it’s..“You like that?”“Of course” she looks so happy, so fucking happy, “I fucking li
ODETTE’s POV.The moment my mouth comes in contact with his erect dick, Malachi shudders, clinging onto the wall. This is the first time I am doing this and seeing how he is reacting to it, I am sure he loves every bit of what I am doing to him.I circle my tongue around his tip and bite down on it a little, making him groan. I love the way his body is reacting to me, I love that I have so much power over him.“Babe!” He rasps out, his toes curling. I continue to suck in his erect cock while beads of sweat pour down his body. He looks so good, I can ogle at this man all of my life and I won’t feel any regrets about it. The more I suck, the more his moans and his groans reach my ears and I love every sound he is making, it’s like music to my ears.He gathers a handful of my hair in his arms and rake his fingers through it, I fucking love it.“I am going to cum” he managed to say, his whole body vibrating in my embrace.I increase my pace and In a few minutes, he spills his warm liquid
MALACHI’s POV.I didn’t say anything to her until she is safely seated in the car, away from public eyes. This wife of mine doesn’t even care about anything. How could she go there without informing me? What if something had happened to her? I was in a meeting when her assistant called me and told me about her whereabouts. I genuinely do not care about what the public thinks of me, only my wife matters to me.Immediately the driver zooms off the premises, I let out a huge sigh tousling my already disheveled hair.“Are you okay?” She asks.“Hmmm” I nod, “I am fine”“You don’t look fine though..“Stefan” I call out to the driver, “go to the hospital”“Okay, sir”“Are you sick?” Her voice becomes laced with worry.“I am fine, babe”She opens her mouth to say something but decides against it. This wife of mine needs to know when to take care of herself first before anyone. I appreciate her standing up for me but then again, I wouldn’t want her to become an object of public ridicule.A few
ODETTE’s POV.The door to my office burst open and my assistant hastens into the room. This gesture of hers makes me raise my from the documents I am reviewing.“Don’t you know how to knock before barging into my office?” I ask her.“I am sorry for barging in like this ma’am” she immediately apologizes, “but I think you need to see this”She hands me the iPad which I collect and my forehead creases into a frown the moment I see find content. He is having a press conference and still accusing my husband of what happened? Yes, I know Malachi is responsible for that but how did Zachary get to know about this?”“Is the conference still on?” I ask her.“Yes ma’am”“Good, get the car ready”I am not going to allow him to tarnish my husband’s image in this way.Five minutes later, the car is on its way to the venue. Luckily it is not that far from Avanti so I actually reach in fifteen minutes but the security personnels at the door won’t let me in.“Do you know who I am?” I ask them.“You do
ZACHARY’s POV.“Fuck!!!” I fling the phone across the room and I watch it smash into the wall, shattering to the ground with so much intensity.How dare he? How dare he do this? I know no one else would do this and In a time like this. How can they all decide to pitch their tent with him and before I am able to comprehend that news, Blossom headquarters caught fire. I can swear on my life that all this is Malachi’s doing. He is trying to push me to the wall and see how I am going to retaliate.My second phone starts to ring but I ignore it, I am not even in the mood to speak to anyone at the moment. I plop down on the couch and bury my face in my palms, this is when the front door opens again and she saunters in.“I thought you left?” I ask her.“Rome called and informed me about what happened, I couldn’t leave” Bryer comes to sit beside me, “I know how your anger works, it is better for you to not be alone”“I don’t need you to come take care of me, Bryer. You should be on your way”
BRYER’s POV.Dropping my phone on the table, the smile on my face intensifies as I continue watching the man beside me sleep. Despite being an alpha, Zachary has always been a weak man and I know that first hand. Being able to manipulate him is something that I can do with my eyes closed and him lying here with me is proof enough. He even agreed to join hands with him and bring his ex wife back. I have no issue with that but it will become an issue when Odette tries to act funny with me.With one last look at him, I pull my body off the bed and start to get dressed but at that moment, his eyes open and a slight frown forms on it.“Where are you going?” He asks, pulling his body to a sitting position.“Why?” I ask him back, “you and I no longer share a relationship so you shouldn’t be bothered about me. Today is a full moon, I need to make preparations”“You will stay here, Bryer” Zachary grits his teeth, “you are the Luna of this pack and it is a full moon tonight, you should stay and
MALACHI’s POV.When Mason informed me of the meeting between Odette and Zachary, I was so mad that I wanted to kill him. I immediately left the meeting I was in and went straight to that hotel. The only thing that made it possible for him to walk out of that hotel alive was the fact that she stopped me. She stopped me from killing him if not I eat wolves like him for a snack.But how could I stay mad at her for long? The moment her body came in contact with her and my lips rested on hers, I felt all of my anger disappear and the only thing I wanted to do at that moment was take her to bed and make insane love to her but i couldn’t. Her gynecologist hasn’t given me the permission yet so I had to take a long cold shower to keep my shaft from getting a hard on again. That wife of mine is giving me a hard time and I love it.I step out of the shower with a towel loosely wrapped around my waist and as soon as I enter the room, my phone starts to beep and as soon as I see the caller ID, I a
