JACKSON'S POV

I almost had her; I felt it in the kiss; I felt her resolve begin to crumble in that kiss. I was so sure that if we had continued, she would have agreed to even go away with me if I had suggested it.

But that damn call had to come in at that time, Clara could have could at any other time, why did it have to be when I was so close

There was no possible way that Aurora would reconsider my offer anymore; it was hard enough as it was to get her to listen to me.

It was evident in her eyes that she was finding it hard to believe me or anything I said to her while she lay on that damn bed

And fucking Ethan, how on earth could he accuse me of hurting Aurora. No matter how angry I got, there was no possible way that I would hurt her, I still cared about her so much. I still loved her.

Aurora had always been very understanding, she never questioned my decisions and always took it to be the best option. Why on earth was she finding it difficult this time around? Why could she not

    Jackson’s POV“what the hell is going on here?” I didn’t intend it but my voice was loud, booming in the vast room, the workers had all paused sharing a stare between I and Clara then between themselves before they scurried away from the living area. I knew that I should mind my tone with Clara but she really couldn’t be reasoned with. I had left Aurora, skipping kilometers to get to Clara, thinking she was hurt or ill, not that I really gave two fucks, but she was my mate and her father’s daughter; if she goes; first, I wasn’t getting away unscathed either. God! The frustration.Clara merely turned, a stupid grin across her lips. Her effort to stand up from the couch was a fail given that the bag of chips she was eating turned over on the expensive chaise lounge.“babe!” she piped up, “you came.” She finally stood up arms wide open and embraced me. My body stiffened in response, she noticed because I felt her head turn to glance at me. Whatever it was that she made me feel at

    CLARA'S POVAs I walked up the stairs, anger simmered in my vein.Jackson was a douche bag. A pathetic loser.No wonder he was given an ultimatum to assume a position that was his. Thinking about it made my finger nails curl and dig crescents in my palm.I pushed the double doors to the en suite I shared with my husband, the cold air sweeping through my skin, the vastness of luxury was to my taste but the loneliness I felt whenever I entered this room and slept all by myself, was sickening.I deserved better.Jackson wasn’t the only one who had been in love with someone else, I had someone else too. I loved someone else but he wasn’t my fated mate.Jackson was, and somehow, over a short time of forced proximity pioneered by our families, I found Jackson lovable, I was bonding with him but the fool was obsessing over another woman.The distance in his eyes whenever I spoke to him about my concerns.What!

    CHAPTER 32CLARA'S POV Maybe my wolf was enjoying it too much, and my brain was too foggy to decipher. Jackson's tongue roamed my mouth, stealing any chance of air that I had and, at the same time, removing every question of doubt in my head.He let go of my hands and pressed his hand onto my waistline, squeezing. His mouth drinking in more of me.My hands, erratic at their freedom, roamed his body, my nails scratching against his dress shirt. I squirmed against him and a distressed moan escaped from me. His hands wrapped around me as he unzipped my dress, the zipper bearing the grunt of his innate desires. The sound of my dress ripping halted both of us briefly. I chuckled, and he smiled against my lips.He smiled. He smiled.Jackson fucking smiled at me.What was he on?What was he thinking? Did my threat really do the trick?The thinking was brief, foggy. Sensible thoughts didn’t last a minute. He was kissing me, intoxicating me with his scent.We were back to kissing. Our han

Have you changed!”Fenrir exclaimed, a cigarette in between the pad of his thumb and a finger.“You say that with so much surprise when we both know that you've been watching me for the past years”I shot back at him“Well, how can I not, you are always on the screen, gets tiring after a while though”Fenrir said as he took a drag from the cigarette he held.“Want some”“Nah, I'm good.

Or at least I had thought that I had.But instead, I was so weak and pathetic that I broke. I could not hold back my emotions.Despite everything he had done, once he mentioned loving me, everything that I had tried to hate him for fled from my mind.I was so ready to forget about all his past indiscretions and act like nothing ever happened, act like he had not stomped on my heart and chosen someone else over me, act like he had not thrown away the five years that we had shared without so much as a thought.Once Jackson began to say how much he regretted doing what he did, I could feel my heart melt. I had tried to steel myself against him but it was impossible.My brain told me that I should hate him and I should cut him off from my life, but my heart told me otherwise, and my body went along with it.His touch on my skin sent flam

What the fuck are you talking about Dahlia?”I asked in confusion , releasing my grip from the glass I was holding unconsciously.“I could not tell you then because I was afraid, I was afraid that you would not believe me, that you would be so angry with me. I was afraid that if I had told you the truth, you would do something rash and get yourself into trouble, that you would lose favour in your dad's eyes if you go trying to defend my honour”“What the fuck are you talking about?”I growled loudly at her, even more confused by her words.“André..”Dahlia started , then burst into tears.I was at a loss of what to do, was I meant to go to her side and try to calm her down?

I am the mother of his child and I would say the love of his life”“Dahlia”I said in a sharp tone immediately.Aurora's expression changed from that of confusion to disbelief then to hurt and betrayal.It was written as clear as day on her face.

Is there even any point to it, I thought that you had moved past all of it ?”André asked me as I picked up a white vase and admired it quietly.“Say something”“What do you want me to say?

    Weeks laterAURORA'S POVThe hostility I had expected was found lacking. I had thought that many of the workers would hate me but it seemed that little by little they were getting used to the idea of me in the office.Having Jackson just opposite my office was honestly really crazy. Most times, I caught him staring at me, with anger and longing in his eyes.He had made it clear that he hated the fact that I had a higher position than him in the office.Knowing Jackson, I was not surprised that his male ego was bruised. After all, he had always been like that, everything was always about me.Not only was he prejudiced about that, but he had also made it his life mission for some reason to get me back.I came to the for a few days to see flowers, chocolates, plates, and little gifts on my table, and I knew immediately that they were from Jackson.One thing I did not want to find out about was that. I could not let that happen, I had to stop Jackson one way or the other.Dropping my bag

    CLARA'S POVOver the years, I had perfected restraining myself and burying my emotions.Mummy had always told me that a lady should not show emotions. Honestly, I think that because she was incapable of showing it having emotions, she thought it was normal.Jackson's words never left me; I could have dismissed them as drunken words, but deep down, I knew that he meant every word he said to me last night.There was no way that I was going to let it go; he had said those things to me, his mate, because of that dreadful bitch.“Did you complete the job?”I said into the receiver.“I did exactly what you asked me to but someone got in the way and saved her”The hitman that I had hired to kill Aurora replied “What?! Are you trying to tell me that she is alive?”“I am sorry ma'am”“You are so fucking stupid, I gave you one simple task, one little task and you could not carry it out. You are so damn useless”I shouted into the phone and threw the phone to the ground.Jackson and Aurora were

What I loved most about it was the name tag on my door.As soon as I sat down, a knock resounded in my office.“Come in”I said as Pearl, my secretary brought my daily cup of coffee whilst balancing some files on her other hand.“Good morning, Mr Jackson. I hope you had a very nice and relaxing weekend?”She asked in that shy little voice of hers.Pearl had not always been my secretary, initially when I had been

    AURORA'S POVSaying I felt jitters was an understatement. I had stalled resuming my position in the company with the excuse of after the marriage and I knew that there was no excuse I could give again.I was married to the CEO of Thompson Incorporations, and I was meant to be the COO. To say that I felt very unworthy was an understatement. Knowing how people were, I was aware that I would be gossiped about and called names, like being a gold digger, a slut, and the like.I took deep breaths as I stared into the fog-covered mirror, running my hands through my wet hair; I sighed.No matter what, I was worthy of this position. Over the years, I had worked my ass off to attain my qualifications, and even today, a fortune only smiled at me because I was married to Ethan. At the end of it all, he was my mate, and he felt I was worthy, and that was all that mattered.I picked up the blow dryer and started drying my hair, still unable to shake off the nerves that were growing and increasing

There's aspirin beside the table and a glass of water; take it, get dressed, and come downstairs. We need to talk”Clara said in a stiff voice and walked away.I had only heard that voice once, and that was when Clara was planning to annihilate a shop attendant who spilled wine on her limited-edition white gown.“Fuck! Why did I drink so much”I mumbled as I grabbed my head between my handsPopping the pills, I swallowed it down with some water, immediately feeling a little bit of relief.I hopped into the shower and as I washed my face I remembered all my words to Clara last night“Fuck!”I groaned.The soap I had applied to my face entered into my eye.“Ow, ow, fuck!!!”I grimaced, trying to wash it off, the sudden movement had me spiraling to the floor and I hit my face on the tub “Argh”I groaned.Why was this morning so bad?
