Alice felt restless and knew he was getting too hot under his pants for a reason he didn't want to acknowledge.He couldn't believe how much he wanted her. In his whole life, he had never been aroused by women, but this girl's mere words could make him wild with desire. He felt like a beast, and he hated himself for it.Alice took deep breaths, trying to control himself. It wasn't something he wanted, at least not now.He went into his study and turned on the camera. Yes, he had cameras all over his house, except in his mom's room.Alice saw Alisha, at first not talking, and then making a deal with his mom not to tell him about what she had said. He whispered to himself, "How can someone be this naive?""She can be, and you love her for it," His conscience replied.Alice smiled as he watched his mom lovingly feed Alisha, making it seem like they were mother and daughter. At least for a day, it was a good distraction. She had come into his life and swept him away with her innocence, and
Alisha finished her pasta and inquired, "Daisy Aunty, what do you usually do all day?"Daisy smiled at Alisha's endearing use of names, "I mostly just stay at home and do nothing much.""Don't you get bored doing nothing all day?,”Alisha probed further."I do get bored, so I try to help with cooking and other tasks,” Daisy admitted.Alisha nodded thoughtfully, "Why don't you do something more? Mother Mary always says that girls should work and be self-sufficient."Daisy's pride swelled at Alisha's words, "I used to have a business, but when Alice started his own successful venture, he insisted I take a break, so I did.""Why would he stop you from working? How could he do that? It's not right that you had to give up your job because of him. He's a bad guy," Alisha questioned."He's not that bad, Alisha. It's just his temper. He didn't want me to work because of my health. He's concerned about me and wants me to rest," Daisy reassured her."What health condition, Aunty?,"Alisha pressed.
Alisha couldn't believe how good she felt with Daisy, and now Daisy had just dumped her, leaving her feeling hurt. Alisha broke the hug with Daisy and said with a sad voice, "I don't want to go, Daisy Aunty, please."Daisy felt bad but knew better than to make her son angrier."He has a big office, and you can find new things there, Alisha," Daisy said.Alice was getting irritated by this talk. He didn't want to bear it anymore. They were getting on his nerves. "How about just stop talking, and you get ready, Angel," he said.Alisha knew nobody was going to help her. She was all in a mess, and she knew even Daisy wouldn't help her, so she better not ruin things any further.Alisha nodded her head and threw an angry look at Alice, which made his lips curve into a smirk.“You know I can dig your eyes out for that so-called look you're giving me," he said.Alisha diverted her eyes and thought, "He can even make me blind, such a cruel man."Daisy helped her to stand and bathe. After help
"Why does anyone need to save me?" she asked.Alice raised his eyebrow. "You're not scared?""Are you a ghost?" Alisha retorted.Alice hated this game she was playing. Despite that, he asked, "No, do I look like one?""You do, but even if you're, I'm not scared of you," Alisha replied. "So, no way I'm getting any fear from you."Alice wanted to smash his head against the wall the way she was talking to him. She seemed to be the only person in the world not scared of him, despite everything he had done to her. At least if she were scared, she would learn not to spoil his mood. But here she was, making his temper rise."You better fear me. If you don't want me to do things that can give you more pain, better don't get on my nerves," Alice said angrily."I'm not sitting in your head, and please remove me from your lap too," Alisha replied."Can you shut your mouth, you dumb bitch? I am not in the mood to talk. If you are so eager to mess with me, don't forget I can throw you out of this c
"Why did you have to ask the driver? I'm here, don't you dare speak to anyone other than me," Alice, upon hearing her, asked.Alisha looked confused and said, "Why are you angry? I just asked because you were laughing."Alice responded, "I don't need your permission to get angry about something. If I want to get angry, you are not the person I need to answer to,” Alice added, "Why did you ask the driver when I was laughing? You should have asked me, not this so-called driver." Alisha couldn't understand why he was showing disrespect to everyone they met. She had never seen anyone behave like this before. In her orphanage, they all respected their elders. Nobody behaved like this with older people, as he was doing at that moment.The car suddenly halted, causing Alisha to jump a bit and sit on his lap.Alice's breath caught when he felt her sitting on him. He struggled to control himself, as he didn't want to scare her. He didn't want to force his desires on her, knowing how innocent s
Alice was exasperated with Alisha's words. He couldn't bring himself to get angry, as it all seemed too trivial to warrant such a reaction. How could he possibly get worked up over something like this? No, it was simply out of the question.He spoke calmly, trying to keep his frustration in check, "Alisha, you can't say things like that to anyone. It's too embarrassing."He felt like he was talking to a child. As much as he wanted to get angry with her, he couldn't bring himself to do it, knowing how ridiculous it all sounded. But he couldn't let her off the hook either."Then it's embarrassing for me to sit on your lap," Alisha retorted.Alice felt like pulling his hair out at the way she spoke. It was getting on his nerves."Do you do anything other than eating someone's head?" he asked.Alisha sighed, clearly annoyed. "How many times do I have to tell you that I don't eat meat ? I'm a vegetarian, why would I want to eat you when I can eat something else?"Alice knew he couldn't win
Alice seethed with anger, causing John to tremble in fear as his shouts reverberated through the room. Alisha, unable to bear witness to his rage, contemplated silencing him to spare her ears from further assault. However, she quickly dismissed the thought, realising the potential consequences of such an action.Struggling to contain his fury, Alice demanded, "Now tell me what you want me to do."John, trembling like a leaf, stammered, "I... I'm sorry, sir.""Keep your apologies to yourself," Alice snapped. "I want an answer. What am I supposed to do if the investor doesn't show up?"Alisha, unable to endure his outburst any longer, removed her hands from her ears and began fidgeting in his arms, further fueling his anger."Why are you fidgeting like that?" Alice demanded.Alisha attempted to extricate herself from his embrace, but upon hearing his words, she sighed and drew closer, pressing her lips against his.Alice 's eyes widened in shock as her soft lips met his. "Did she just
Alisha's tears streamed down her cheeks as Alice gently kissed them away, savouring their taste. "You know how good you taste, even your tears are delicious, and your blood, even more so," he murmured. Alisha's head throbbed with pain, and she cried out, "Ahhhhhh!!!!! Ahhhhhhh!!!!"Alice, taken aback by her sudden outburst, asked, "What happened? Why are you shouting like that? You led me here, and now you're shouting. What's wrong?" Alisha, through her tears, pleaded, "My head is pounding. I need Mother Mary. Take me to her. Ahhhhh! Ahhhhh! Do something. I can't bear the pain. Take me somewhere. I'll die if this continues."Alice, visibly distressed by her suffering, immediately called for a doctor."I need you to bring a doctor here now. I need it within ten minutes," he demanded. After ending the call, he went to Alisha, who was still crying and in pain, and tried to comfort her, holding her close and soothing her. "Shhh!!! It's going to be fine, Angel. Don't cry. It will pass
He glanced up and noticed who barged into his office without even knocking, making a ruckus.“What the hell, man? Are you trying to give me a heart attack?”Alice sighed, recognizing his only friend. “Edward, I'm really not in the mood for chit-chat. You see that door you just breezed through like you owned the place? How about you use it to leave?”“Since when did you get a say in this? I'm here because Aunt Daisy is worried sick about you. How can you just ignore her? You've never done that,” Edward said, pulling up a chair and ignoring Alice's glares.“Not when she's faking illness to buy time for my soon-to-be wife's escape plan,” he retorted, eyeing his so-called friend.“She's not doing it to spite you, Alice. She just doesn't want you to hurt anyone. That matters, you know, even if you don't want to acknowledge it,” Edward reasoned, his expression serious.“I don't want to acknowledge it. You can leave now, Edward. I don't want to hurt you, but you're pushing it,” Alice said, g
"Have you found her yet? It's been more than three days now," Alice, with a tired-looking face and dark circles under his eyes, asked the guys standing in front of him.His once-perfect face, now disheveled, still screams perfection, but with an air of exhaustion.For the last three days, he hasn't gone to work or slept, as he has tried his best to find Alisha.Even after using his Mafia connections, he is still unable to find Alisha, driving him crazy bit by bit."Sir, we've tried everywhere, but it seems like she vanished into thin air.""Are you even hearing yourselves, motherfuckers? I'm paying your detective firm thousands of dollars to find her, and you still don't have a single clue. How incompetent can you all be?" He shouted at the guys from the best detective firm.He hired police, his Mafia connections, and detectives, but nothing.Where did Alisha vanish? She didn't take any transport, didn't leave any hotel, and didn't take any money, as nothing was missing from his room.
"Mom, why did you say you'll take her to the pack? We're not even allowed there, and we haven't received a response to your letter yet," Levi followed Maya into the room, while Alisha rested in another room, exhausted from the walk."I've made my decision. Even if we don't get a reply in two days, I'm going to pack. No one can stop me; it's the only way out," Maya declared, her expression serious."What do you mean, Mom? Do you want to get killed? We were banished from that pack. We'll be considered rogues, and you, me, and Rish don't even have wolves to protect us. Plus, Alisha doesn't know anything, and she's cursed," Levi's eyes widened, showing her panic."Do you think we can hide our whole lives? I don't want to hide anymore. Why should we? Especially when I've found the royal heir. It's time to face it, Levi. I left the pack because I wanted to correct my mistake. Now that I have Alisha, I want to go back and stand for what I believe in."Levi sighed, unsure of what to say. As m
"Did you two have a good walk?" Maya asked as she saw Alisha and Levi approaching. She felt relieved seeing them.She had been stressed, thinking about what they might be talking about because she didn't want Levi to spill everything, or worse, to have a slip of the tongue."Yes, Mom, we had a great talk. I love her; she's totally funny," Levi smiled as she supported Alisha and helped her to sit on the sofa."How are the wounds, Alisha?" Maya walked close to Alisha and sat beside her."Sore, but they're healing faster," Alisha smiled as she spoke."She told me her wounds always heal faster," Levi chimed in, passing on Alisha's words to Maya.Maya nodded, understanding exactly what Levi wanted to say. That meant Alisha had her wolf; it's just the curse that's stopping it.Without a wolf, it's impossible to heal so quickly. But how her wolf is still working even with the curse is questionable.Or maybe it's because she is of royal blood, which makes a huge difference. Normally, anyone w
“Haha,” Alisha laughed. “I am sharp, I don't think I am innocent, or else how would I be able to run?”Levi moved her head left and right. Even though she didn't know Alisha well, she could still see that Alisha was strangely different while telling everything: how she met Alice and how even her dog got killed.Levi couldn't help but feel something was very weird with Alisha. She wanted to talk about this to her mother Maya, but then she had to come here for a walk with Alisha. But for sure she would have a talk about this whole thing after this walk.There was something very strange about Alisha, an innocence she had never seen in anyone. Maybe it was because of the curse, but she wasn't sure about it all.“You are sharp, no doubt, but you are not sharp enough,” Levi stated.Visible wrinkled lines showed on Alisha's forehead as she heard Levi's words. “What do you mean?”She didn't know what Levi wanted to say. Clearly, it was confusing for her to understand. She did have innocence,
"Legs feeling comfortable?" Levi asked, seeing Alisha limp.She felt Alisha's unease, understanding anyone would feel the same, so she wanted to make her comfortable."Yes, they are fine. It's just that I'm walking with sore feet, so it's a bit difficult," Alisha smiled as she answered."Oh, it will heal soon," Levi smiled back, holding Alisha's hand to support her walking."To be honest, my wounds usually heal very soon, just like magic. I'm glad my body has immunity and it helps."‘It's because you're a Wolf,’ Levi thought, unable to say it to Alisha's face, knowing it's not the time to reveal the truth.Alisha looked at Levi, noticing she seemed lost in thought. "What are you thinking?"She didn't know what else to ask, but she had to start the conversation. She couldn't keep walking like this.Though it's fresh, the forest is clearly better than city life. The peace and the fresh scent of woods make it so tranquil.She could spend her whole life here, even if she weren't in a situ
Maya muttered, not knowing what she should say or do. It's literally such a pissing situation. If she can, she wants to kill him for such things.Without meeting him, she can tell how much of a disgusting person he is. Even before Levi and Rish told her about him, she thought he's just some money-blinded person who loves to look down upon everyone because they're rich. But that doesn't make sense now.She can just say he's worse than animals. Even the mate system in the werewolf world doesn't treat women as poorly as he did with Alisha, claiming that he loves her.But what the question here is, how he even gets close to her. That just shudders everything inside her. By thinking, just the mere chance is like he's her mate. The mere thought is terrifying aloneHe doesn't deserve to be mated with Alisha, their queen, but if he is Alisha's mate, no matter how much she tries to protect Alisha. She won't be able to do so.If he is her mate, not even the Moon Goddess can save Alisha.She can
“Please have a seat. I hope you feel better after resting. Is the chair comfortable?” Levi politely pulled out a chair for Alisha, leaving her shocked by her sudden politeness.Both Levi and Rish were giving her wary looks, as if ready to kick her out of the house. If Maya hadn't intervened, they might have done just that.Even though she knew it wasn't their fault, they weren't being rude; it was because of Alice's behaviour at the shop. She was the one who asked for stones, unaware that it was an exclusive store.How could she have known? It was her first time going somewhere like that, especially coerced into wedding ring shopping, from which she had already run away.When they revealed yesterday that, to save their jobs, they pretended it to be silver rings , Alisha could only imagine the true cost of the ring.Sudden politeness was still very shocking indeed.“Please sit, why are you standing? You're still injured, you should sit,” Rish's words snapped her back from her thoughts.
"You don't have to worry about anything; I am sure father will reply," Levi said, getting close to Maya and hugging her. She knew how her mother suffered through all this."I regret everything. I am sorry. I can never repay you for what you both lost because of me," Maya's tears started falling from her eyes as she began crying."Anyone in your place would have done the same, Mom. And we are glad you didn't leave us in that pack. We don't want to live without you," Levi hugged her tighter, not wanting to see her mother cry.Maybe she had always been a bit angry or in pain because of what she never got, but that didn't mean she didn't see her mother doing her best for her and Rish.She did sometimes miss her father, but she suppressed all urges, knowing it wasn't something her mother was at fault for.It's just that time was like that, and nobody could stop anything. Everything was meant to happen, and it did."Still, that doesn't mean I should have been so selfish to take you both awa
