Alpha Knight fed himself with her fear and a smile curved amidst those killer fangs of his.“Well, I have missed you too. Can't wait to do what I love to do most with you,” he growled and gave her a resounding slap, slashing three of his claws across her face. She screamed as the blood poured down and pain seared through her entire being. She felt the electrified poison seeping in and the new wounds sizzled as if being fried in hot oil.The men around her didn't even flinch. They were like rigid statues, created only to frown without feelings.“You dare escape from me? Where did you think you were going to hide?!” Wayne boomed and grabbed her neck, piercing her skin and making blood flow down from it. She couldn't help herself because her hands were apart and chained to two mighty pillars. And gold...she was defenseless with gold.“Why don't you...why don't you release me and fight?” she grumbled. He raised his thick ey
Olive wanted to ask Wayne if something was wrong, but he looked relaxed and calm. If something was truly wrong, it would have reflected on his face as he was not someone to hide his displeasure.Therefore, she exhaled and decided to let it pass. Maybe she was just overthinking things.They began to eat their lunch in silence. But each of them was just waiting for the other to speak first. When the silence between them was becoming tiring, Wayne cleared his throat.“Ahem...hmm mm”Olive looked at him with furrowed brows. His gaze met hers.“Do you need water?” she asked, thinking he had choked on his food.“No. I'm good,” he replied and she stared at him still. He huffed and gulped down a glass of water to appease her.“Better. I don't want you choking until you turn red,” she stated then resumed eating. Wayne grinned and rested on his chair, using his knuckles to support his face again a
Back in the room, Olive frowned as she saw Jericho speed out from her front.“What is wrong with him? Tsk, tsk, tsk,” she mumbled and purposely banged the door in Wayne's face. The Big Bad Alpha stood speechless and motionless for long seconds. Then he made a chesty chuckle. Then a throaty chuckle, then a mouthy chuckle. And finally he began to laugh. Olive heard the laughter and paused in her walking back to her vanity. Why was he laughing like a maniac?Wayne ruffled his hair and lifted his face to look at the ceiling. He couldn't believe himself at the moment. Olive had ignored him. Openly flirted with another man right in front of him and even banged the door in his face?‘You are one lucky woman,’ he thought and laughed again. He wasn't angry anymore. And that was a new development.He only got rid of his anger while transferring it to something else. Maybe objects or even people. But just now, he couldn't even transfer it to Jericho who was the reas
Olive's hair was no longer in a ponytail. Instead, it was over her shoulders in wavy smoothness. It had been straightened then recurled at the ends. One side was tucked behind her ear, while the other side covered that side of her face. Vanessa had done her eyebrows and added a bit of eyeshadow to her eyes. Her lips were still red, but a bit shinier. Vanessa had replaced her printed skirt with a short body-con leather skirt but let her wear the crop top. The icing on the cake was an Arabian perfume that was sprayed over her. It screamed alluring.“Now you look and smell alluring. Let's see how your Alpha male rejects this,” Vanessa praised as she looked at Olive with pride.“You've got a nice waist, girl. So slim,” Dolly said and Olive chuckled. She heard that a lot.“Thanks, Vanessa,” she appreciated with a thumbs up.“You're welcome. Now, let's go to the Circular Cabinet. I'm quite sure he would come there,” Vanessa replied and they headed out through t
Olive's eyes shut tight as Wayne pressed himself harder against her. She was losing her senses slowly and didn't know what to do.“Wayne, please,” she pleaded, her eyes still closed. He smirked as he stared at her face. She was acting so bold and graceful earlier, and now she was pleading when he hadn't even done anything? He slowly slid his hands around her waist, trailing his long fingers on her skin. She shuddered at his touch and clutched his arm.“Can I...finish my cocktail?” she asked and he shifted his face away from her a little.“Ah! Yes, your cocktail,” he exclaimed with a mischievous smile.“What did Jericho make for you again?” he asked and she looked up at him. She knew what he was driving at but didn't want to play along. He picked up the glass from behind her and lifted it up. He stared into the drink as if he was inspecting it. Then he looked at her and shifted two steps away.“W
On that day, Wayne had gone to Italy for a visit to an Alpha friend of his. He had a pack hidden in Rome, unknown to humans. All members of his pack were rich, and had lots of jewelries which had been passed on from generation to generation. These jewels were priceless possessions and some even had myths attached to them.Alpha Maximo was a calm yet deadly man, just like all of Wayne's friends were. But he was quite different from them in a way. Dante Maximo was kindhearted. No one knew he even possessed a dark side because of how good he appeared, both to humans and his pack. Dante had not found his mate yet, but he was already saving tons of jewelry for her. He said he couldn't wait to meet her.Out of his jewelry collection, he gave that gold necklace to Wayne. Saying he should keep it for his own mate.“Have this, Wayne. I pray your mate likes it,” he teased as he handed it to his friend.“Why? I don't care about a mate. In fact, I h

Olive watched as Gia disappeared behind the doors. She felt her heart racing fast. What did Gia mean by that?‘What is most precious to them is Wayne's life. And of course, their pride. Therefore, they wouldn't want someone who has tried to tarnish both,' Gia's voice repeated in her mind.She palmed her face. Did Gia know that she tried to kill Wayne? Is that what she was threatening her with?“Gosh,” she exhaled and hugged her arms. She felt chilly all of a sudden. She sniffed and began to walk out of the room.'...therefore they wouldn't want someone who has tried to take both,' she heard Gia's voice again. She gulped as she pressed the elevator button to open it.She regretted trying to take Wayne's life. What if she had succeeded? She shook her head to throw off the thought of her mur.dering her own mate. There was no way she would have succeeded. Wayne would always be one step over his enemies. Or even more steps.But,
