Kiara povAlpha Bryant was indeed so cruel I knew that we would never be together since I was basically nothing more than his servant to him but at the very least I should be allowed to worry for him as his mate even though he would never really recognize me as his.He didn't have to speak to me so harshly, I thought to myself as I pressed my face against my pillow that night soaking it with tears.Maybe I deserve this, it will remind me to never go beyond my boundaries with him I was only here to serve him not even being recognized as a trophy wife,I viciously wiped the tears that I had on my face determined to be cold and detached from him the next day, this plan almost fell apart the next day the moment I saw him looking even more drained than he had been the day before, my fingers were about to toast the tree of food outside and quickly rush over to him but instead, I took a slow sigh to myself collecting my thoughts.I just have to be cold and detached since my concern was an an
Kiara povHe still looked hesitant when I asked him this and he backed away towards the laptop for a while."I don't know if you'll understand this…you might be confused a bit…"I placed my hands defensively on my waist and his eyes seemed to run over me from head to toe sending shivers across my entire body at once."W-what makes you think that I won't understand it…give me a chance first…after all the first time we met I was actually there for a job so it's not something I'll have no id-""Alright…" He said placing his hands on my shoulders and then I realized that I had actually been ranting quite a bit to him and I found myself flushing in realization but I tried to brush it off.I walked over to his laptop and propped myself on the chair looking at what had been giving him sleepless nights all this time."It's a contract?"I asked him just to be sure after looking through the documents for a couple of seconds he greatly nodded in agreement so we began to discuss the issue with th
Kiara povNow I was making the Alpha's dinner when something unexpected happened it was so shocking that it took me a couple of minutes to gather myself and when I did my face was still flush as I looked back and he was smiling down at me hugging me from behind his hands wrapped around me and fitting so easily I wanted to never leave. However, the fact that it was a foreign position for me caused my entire body to flinch away from him, he didn't trap me but I could see a hint of disappointment when I jumped out of his arms.The frown didn't go deep however and was soon replaced with a wild smile, he told me that he was so happy and he appreciated my help."So did the contract work out?" "Far better than expected, it was amazing…"He looked like he was going to hug me again and once more my body betrayed me by stepping back away from his gaze as my eyes traveled around to see if anybody had spotted us in this position and luckily from what I could see no one else had he was excited n
Bryant pov"I hope you are not falling for that maid…"I gave my grandmother a gaping look when she said this. It had been a peaceful momentous day at my office when suddenly the intercom started vibrating on my table and before I could even pick it up my grandmother was stumping into my office.My Secretary walked in trying to stop my grandmother before she sent me an apologetic look with her eyes."I'm so sorry…Alpha Bryant…I tried to stop her but she…""Nevermind," I told my secretary, waving her off, I knew just how stubborn my grandmother could be and I had a feeling that something like this would happen eventually.I had been trying to avoid her because everytime I tried to have a normal conversation with her it would all crumble down into her just trying to bad-mouth Kiara.Even when I told her not to do so."Bryant we need to talk…"She said coming to sit across from me."I'm busy right now grandmother, can this not wait till I get home? You know that…""I know that you have b
Kiara povI had been so excited when I heard the engine of Alpha Bryant's car that I took a jar of milk that I had been holding in my hand in the kitchen and rushed over to the entrance of the pack house with excitement building up inside of me like a volcano about to explode.But the thing I saw at the door caused my heart to fall and shatter just like the jar I had been holding but I lost my grip at the traumatizing sight.Bryant and Anna have been sharing a kiss and as soon as I drop the jar embarrassingly they both turned around at the same time to look at me and I wanted to just dig into the ground and bury myself instantly away from their judging gazes I apologized profusely for the broken glasses and went over to get a mop and broom to take care of it."I see that you are still a stupid clutz!"She raised her hand very to slap me across the face. I closed my eyes holding my hands defensively in front of my face and then she froze gasping."Now what the hell do you think you are
Bryant's povWhen I looked behind my shoulder and Kiara was still on the floor packing the broken glasses so I went back to the intercom holding it firmly and after telling Kiara once more that we needed to talk after I had managed to sneak away from Anna. Kiara mumbled something that I didn't catch and I asked her to repeat it. She told me that I didn't matter and that made me even more curious about it. I found out that my voice was almost rising enough to catch Anna's attention and I reduced it instantly.I needed to hear what Kiara was feeling right now for some reason.Something about the scene that had happened earlier did not sit well with me at all there was a time that I would literally gaze out the window waiting for when Anna would show up again missing her so terribly, I was literally counting the days before she would come back I had not realized when I stop gazing out and waiting for her and when I have stopped counting days as well.Now it was almost as if it had never
Kiara povI had literally expected to see anybody else at my front door other than the Alpha himself and I immediately stepped back out of fear and reservation thinking about what had happened some moments ago. It was like a severe slap to my face reminding me that I will never be anything to him.Taking my eyes away from his direction and gazing at the floor as if it was the first time I had seen something so peculiar I asked him to forgive me for not answering his calls and coming over to his room as I was doing so I was stylishly trying to brush off the years that have been running down my face but before I could even succeed in doing this I heard his footsteps and he was far too quick for my retreating tactic didn't work and he was holding my wrist lifting my head up and he could see the tears running down my face still."Have you been crying?"He asked me and I immediately began to shake my head saying that I just have some onions in my eyes or something like that, nobody was stu
Kiara povHer face was burning with anger and she looked at me as well, as if I was the cause of any problem that she had ever experienced in her entire life but I was just wondering what offence I had committed that made me deserving of this because nothing is coming to my mind.Why was I still here? That question rattled through my mind several times and I was not able to come up with a good response for it so instead I ended up looking at her with the intention to fight back but to my own surprise I couldn't I just looked at her like an idiot and feeling stupid for not being able to muster a single word against her I felt like anything I say would only escalate the entire situation and put me in a bigger dilemma.Besides, according to the contract I was expected to leave when she comes back but Bryant is still holding back and my stupid self was hoping for something different, something I know is impossible yet I want it.She threatened me for a little bit expecting me to speak an
Kiara's pov "Doctor please can you save him?" The doctor looked at me with pity saying that he was going to do everything he could but it wasn't looking very good for my father as he turned around and dashed into the ICU unit before I could settle into the waiting room Bryant and my mother quickly arrived to the scene and by that time he is really running down my face. I had no idea that man would ever be able to take a bullet for me. I thought he wouldn't even care if I died so listening to the advice that he gave me didn't seem to make any sense. Tears were coming down heavily even as Bryant wrapped his hands around me and my mother kept pleading to me what happened. So through my tears, I was able to narrate everything to my mother and the father of my children and I watched as their faces gradually became pale then my mother came over to me touching my cheek. "Are you saying that man really took a bullet for you?" My mother asked me and honestly, I wasn't surprised that she w
Kiara's povI looked at my phone again as it started ringing and vibrating on top of my desk it was from an unknown number or technically the number was not unknown because I knew it was coming from my wretched father that was if I could even call that my father anymore after all the years that he had abandoned me and my mother his daughter that he flew away he just walked back into our life as if nothing happened as if leaving us to struggle for so many years is nothing. As if that was something that we could just easily sweep under the carpet and forget about.I remember the first time I mistakenly picked up an unknown number thinking that it was probably related to business since that was not completely coming and I couldn't believe it when I heard his voice from the other side of the line telling me that he had run into my mother sometime ago and after doing some digging here he was able to get my phone number I didn't allow him to say anything else before I quickly cut off the c
Mr. Horris povIn the years that I have been married to my wife, I knew that she was capable of a lot of things and many of them were not exactly something that was supposed to be spoken outside to other people, however, I used to believe that she had limits.But after what I just discovered I found out that she definitely didn't when I tried to donate blood for Anna I was surprised when the doctor called me over to his office and told me that I was not a match for my daughter and that they would have to personally look for another donor this immediately made my suspicious and my instincts did not allow me to forget it so while she was at the hospital bed I asked the doctors to do a DNA test for me and Anna and the result was what I had in front of my wife right now the wife that had lied to me for several years and made me think that a child that wasn't my own was mine all this time.I had raised her with all the love that I had with all the love that I never gave to my true daughter
Harris povI was completely overtaken by shock when I heard you that my beloved daughter was in the hospital back and immediately I called out for her father who was in the other room rushing to him with tears running down my face he was focused on a TV and it took him a while to finally look at me and he saw the tears running down my face then he hardly told me that I could buy what I wanted to if I let him the rest of his program I told him that it had nothing to do with a purchase.I told him that our only daughter is at the hospital right now and immediately he began about asking me what happened I told him that I had got a call from somebody who claimed to be a friend of our daughter saying that he had found her in her hotel room bleeding really badly and she had been rushed to the hospital I showed him the address on the hospital with a map app that I had and told him that we have to leave as soon as possible."Who could have possibly done such a thing to our daughter let's go!"
Oscar's pov"I'm guessing that you were not expecting to see me,"After waiting five Long years I had finally seen her again and my heart was racing from the moment I got news that she was in the pack once more. It must have been destiny saying that we were meant to be together even though from the horrified look on her face.I was guessing that she didn't know that I was supposed to be in her life and she should have shown more excitement after seeing me for over 5 years I had been following her in the shadows all this time but now that she was finally alone in a restaurant that was far enough from the company that I wasn't expecting Bryant to be popping up anytime soon I wanted to meet up with her and I sat across her on the table that she has chosen"Oscar, whatever you have to say to me I am not interested in hearing it after everything you have done. It is just best that you keep your distance away from me."She spoke in such a bad manner as if she was speaking to an enemy but I
Anna's povThey were having another candle-lit dinner tonight and I watched them. A couple of tables were going with the glass of Champagne shaking in my hand almost to the point of tumbling down and falling to the floor but somehow I managed to keep the balance before dropping it back on the table feeling like my head was about to explode and my heart was about to follow it a moment later.How did things end up this way? 3 days ago I was expecting to be married and spending the rest of my life with a man who was now having a romantic dinner with another woman. How could he do this to me?Just like I expected my friends were calling me and asking questions, and many of them who were not actually my friends had taken this as an opportunity to laugh at me. I knew that many of them were talking to me behind my back.I thought that I was going to lose my mind at any time,What gave them the right to be so happy after they had taken any chance of happiness away from me? What gave them the
Kiara's pov "Have you heard the hottest gossip in town?"I was in the company's cafeteria having my lunch because I wasn't going to have another afternoon looking across the table and seeing Brian's face normally it was easy for me to control the hatred that I had been nursing for the past five years as diligently as I took care of my own children but yesterday I had even caught myself laughing with him that was completely uncalled for I thought that the walls I had built up around myself were high and mighty.I had convinced myself that my wall stood so high and mighty that there was nothing that could ever bring it down but as the days passed by I noticed that he would often come to my mind and it would summon the boiling anger that it normally did.Sometimes I would even find myself smiling at him and the thought of him but the moment reality slapped me sharply across the face I was able to gather myself again but that didn't mean that I wasn't slacking off.This meant that I was
Anna's pov I was waiting expectantly to hear from Bryant's grandmother, and when she finally called me over to meet her in a coffee shop I was hoping to hear good news. "Anna you might have to give up on my grandson,"The mocha I was slowly sipping when she said this to me immediately the taste become bitter in my mouth. The next thing I did was to gradually drop them as gently as somebody dropping a bomb."What do you mean by that? How can I possibly give up on him? Our wedding is just 4 days away now. I can't possibly think of giving up. Everything is already prepared. I have invited all of my influential friends to come. Do you know how humiliating it's going to be to tell them that the wedding is not going to hold?"Even as I was saying all of this to her all she just did was to stretch her back and shrug helplessly she should be able to do more than this was it because she was becoming too old it was hard I was relying on her to set his head straight not for her to come and wa
Kiara's pov In my life I was used to the struggles that came about me at this point it felt like a normality. Having my triplets I thought that life was finally coming to a meaningful point.I thought that I finally came to a balance that made sense but I was wrong about it. I had only imagined that everything was going right and all of a sudden that balance and falling apart into a million pieces without me realizing it. How could I be staying under the same roof as the man that broke my heart 5 years ago? How could I be allowing him to speak to my children freely? These questions ran through my mind without answers and I thirsted for it.I came down after another stressful work day not knowing what was waiting for me at the parking lot what I did not expect was that the tire of my car would be shredded and all the air let out of it now I was stranded in this place because I hadn't brought any cash that will be enough to take me back to that place."Are you having issues?" He popped
