I am standing in the driveway, waiting for my fiancé. He's late. So rude. I see him pull in. He's driving an impressive black sports car. I don't move back even as he gets closer. He stops just in front of my legs. I cross my arms and glare at him with cold eyes, showing him how angry I am because he is late and does not communicate. Zuriel doesn't leave his car. He's watching me too... Bored. I huff and go to the passenger seat. I open the door and shut it. " Morning," he says curtly. " You're late." " My bad," I grit my teeth and ball my hands in a fist. " Apologise for being late. Have you no manners?" I sneer. " It's not my fault, I forgot," he answers. " Screw you," I murmured, looking out the window. In the corner of my eye, I see him smirk. " You might soon," he murmured, driving. I gasp and stare at him. He looks straight ahead to the road. I inspect the car. It's even better inside. I wonder if he made this. His company was the best at manufacturing sports ca
Elara" Mr Crawford, My princess. Welcome, welcome! " A tall, dark gorgeous woman beams as we come to us. She is refined and elegant. I recognize her immediately as Mrs. Simson, a renowned jeweler. She appears in almost all the magazines. " Mrs Simson. Thank you for having us on such short notice," Zuriel says, shaking the woman's hand. " It's no problem at all, after the huge deal you made with my husband last month," she seems happy. She elegantly kisses my cheek and takes a step back from us. " Congratulations on your union. It will be the wedding of the year!" she says. I only maintain a polite smile." I'm pleased you want to buy your engagement and wedding rings from us. Do you have anything in mind?" " No, can you show us what you have?" I ask. " Of course, dear," The store was cleared just for us. Everything was expensive and alluring. This experience would have filled me with joy if Zuriel wanted to do this with me. Even now as Mrs Simson shows us a beautiful collection
[ Mature Content]ConnorI was hiding out in my uncle's pack. People were hunting after me... Many after what I did to their precious little princess Elara. My beta was in charge of my pack, but I was leading it. " What is your plan, son? You can't hide out here forever," my uncle Jofrey says as he hands me a beer. I don't intend to stay here forever or in hiding. I need a proper plan to appear back in my mate's life, but for now, I enjoy the agony I cause her by fucking those bitches. I don't want her to forget me. " I'll stay in this pack for a few months and then go back to mine when the heat on me stops," I inform my uncle. This pack is the safest right now, and my uncle's cottage that I was staying in is secluded in the countryside. It is small and peaceful. No one knows my tie to it, so I'm safe from those who hunt me. On the bright side, women throw themselves at me. " You need to accept that poor girl's rejection and free her from you, nephew. The Silvius have men looking
ElaraMy stomach was still queasy, and I was still nervous. Zuriel gets to his feet and asks, " How are you feeling?"" Better," I answer, still out of breath. My throat was still sore. Zuriel gets in the driver's seat. He glances at me once before he starts his car. The ride home is silent, and my eyes sway to my ring. It suits me.We arrive at home. He gets out of the car to open the door for me. I am shocked by that manner. Why is he being gentle all of a sudden?" The stores will bring in all the dresses," he tells me before getting back in the car. I watch him with a frown as he drives away in a hurry.As soon as I enter the house, my mom, Aunty Kiya, and Solena surround me. They all want to see my ring. I show them, plastering a smile on my lips." It's just too beautiful," Sol purrs." 12 carats. Must have cost him quite a penny," Kiyana grins." It's nothing to him, Mom. It is Zuriel Crawford w
Elara I was dressed in a cream-white gown and did my hair and make-up to perfection. It is the day of our engagement party. I am nervous. " Hi, sweetheart. Are you ready?" My father asks. I look up to him and nod. I stand up from my vanity table as he approaches my bedroom. I smile at him, and he gives me a charming smile back. My father is so good-looking. One might think he's still thirty-five. Werewolves age slowly. " So handsome," I caress his stubble beard. He brings my hand to his lips and kisses it. " You're even more beautiful," he tells me. " Elara, I love you so much," I know that. I am his little girl. His only daughter. " I love you, too," No sooner did he leave, had the door opened. This time it was my two best friends Brendon and Solena who entered. They were dressed for the party. " Beautiful girl," Brandon cheers, kissing my cheek. " Your mom asked us to come get you," Solena says, taking pictures of us. I pose for the pictures happily. " Your wedding
Zuriel has never called me by my name. It is always little Princess or tick. He stares at me, his mouth opening, but no sounds come out, “ Say it,” I encourage. He's about to say it when my father joins us. “ How’s the newest couple?” Dad asks. He seems excited like everyone else. " We are alright, Dad," I say. We make small talk for a moment before he sees Alpha Layth Thorn. He scowls and excuses himself from us. The party was lovely. Zuriel didn't glare at me. He was normal towards me and kind. My friends and I danced, and I started feeling good about the union with Zuriel. I should be happy as Ara encourages me. I was marrying the love of my life, and he was warming up to me. I think we'll be happy together. I will make it work between us. I will take care of him and be patient with him until he loves me back. ... The following days I spent with my friends. The members of my pack loved me again, and the scandal that caused so much chaos stopped. No videos were circulating, a
I can't tell River that Zuriel, the man she speaks warmly about, is my fiance. How can I? " Did you just leave the hospital?" I ask. " Yes, I couldn't bear it in there anymore. I needed to see Zuriel," " You must love him," I murmur. " We were so in love. He's not too expressive, but I know he loves me," she says, and I feel a sting in my chest. Will Zuriel cancel the wedding now that his girlfriend is back? I will be heartbroken. Now that I was getting a little closer to him, it will be hard to leave him. I look at the woman sitting next to me. We stayed there a moment as we waited. The large glass doors open, and Zuriel steps in. He looks shocked to see us here. River is the first one to get to her feet and run to give him a huge hug. My heart feels like it has been pierced with a silver dagger mixed with wolfsbane. Zuriel I'm looking at River, shocked. Next to her is Princess Elara. She is looking at me with her big green eyes... She is hurt. River sobs and runs to
ElaraI didn't know what to do or the way to react. Zuriel had a girlfriend, and I didn't know about her. I was crushed when she hugged him. I wanted to push her away from him. He was my fiancé, and he was supposed to marry me! So why was she hugging him, and why was he letting her do that? River then told us her story. I was mortified to learn what happened to the poor woman. No woman deserves to be raped and have their baby killed. I saw Zuriel's guilt. He blamed himself for what happened. Therefore, do anything to ease her pain and be there for her. Zuriel didn't understand that we needed to find out more about her. Maybe I'm speaking out of jealousy, but something was off about River. She was kidnapped for four years, yet there was no evidence of that. She had no visible scars on her arms and legs even though she claimed to be tortured. She looked sickly and weak, but that's all. ' I was thinking the same, and her attitude changed so much when she was with Zuriel,' Ara added. S
