2024-10-29 19:42:56As Aramina got home, she could perceive her stepmother's perfume, she came back early…well, another month of hell before she decides on another country to go to.
But she hadn’t expected to find her bags on the balcony. She knocked at the door, and since it was bolted from the inside, her stepmother stepped out along with her two daughters, she was a beautiful woman, and a good actress too; she often pretended that Aramina was the best thing she had ever happened to her but indoors, Aramina must do things according to her rules. The basement with its little window was her room, this was despite the fact that the house had over seven rooms.
“…and the little princess arrives, my my, what are these fabulous clothes you are wearing, Zee here tells me you’ve been going around sleeping with men for money”
Zee was the most devious of the two sisters, always quiet, but with the personality of the devil. She didn’t throw tantrums like Nina, she was the observer, who watch, plan and execute from behind.
Aramina glared at her but she blinked back innocently with a sinister smile on her lips.
“Don’t you dare look at my child like that, you cursed child” her stepmother shouted slapping her.
“I wasn’t sleeping with men, a friend of mine got me the clothes”, Aramina was hurt, she was used to her stepmother choosing her daughters over her every time but it still hurt. She angrily used her thumb to clean of the blood from the cut caused by the slap.
“Well, I hope that friend is ready to accommodate you because you have grown too big to be in my house”. Her stepmother said with her daughters nodding from behind her,
Aramina was taken aback, “Mom please, do not kick me out, you know that no one in this town will accept me” she pleaded
“Then live on the streets” her stepmother snarled
“And before you live, pull off that cloth, it is obviously not your standard” Nina chipped in
“I won’t, my friend got me this” Aramina stepped back, she was not going to be bullied into giving up Karen’s gift…and she loved the gown.
“You will and you must” her stepmother ordered
Nina and her stepmother started dragging the cloth off her, Zee simply went to her bag and picked up her phone. Aramina got angry and frustrated, she snarled at them, her eye color changing to a darker shade and beginning to glow
She felt so wronged, this was unfair, they had treated her like she was invincible except when they needed her to run errands, and now they are throwing her out and trying to rob her of the only valuables she had. She was hurt, she knew they never liked her, but she still thought of them as family, and now this…
She didn’t realize that her fingers had elongated until she had Nina’s yelp of pain. She snarled at them again as they drew back in fear. She was so focused on her hurt that she didn’t see the look of fear on their face as her glowing pupils suddenly changed to black.
“Mina”
Aramina’s eyes widened with shock as her pupil reverted back to normal. There was only one voice that could have such effect on her,
“Zach” she said even before turning around
“Get the hell out of my house and stay out” her stepmother shouted as soon as she regained composure. She then walked into the house followed by Nina. Zee stood for a few minutes observing Zach before she went into the house and shut the door.
Aramina broke down.
She had never been so angry, neither had she felt such primal rage, she looked at her finger again but it was back to normal. She was scared.
“What happened to me Zach?”
Zach immediately hugged her, “it’s okay”, as she sobbed on him.
********
Zach had planned to spend the whole of this evening with Mina, he already had it planned out and now these losers have ruined it. Well, it seems that not only werewolves need dealing with.
As Aramina sobbed on him, his heart broke. He mind-linked Caleb to set up her room in the pack.
“Let’s go home “Mina”
“What…home, this is my home and the…they threw me out of it. Don…don’t worry, I will…I will get it sorted out”. She stammered amidst her tears
Zach held her shoulders and said seriously, “I will be damned if I let you go back to this house. Mina, please don’t be stubborn about this”
She seemed to give it a thought, “what of school?”
“You will keep going to school”
Aramina closed her eyes and leaned into his body again as the tears poured out.
Zach gently carried her into the car, picked up her bags and drove off with her.
********
From the window, a pair of eyes maliciously took in the whole scene and scowled. “How the hell did Aramina know Zach Toople?”

Zach drove into his territory which had a weird but comforting ambiance. The road was covered with fallen dried leaves the both sides of the road were covered in wood. The gentle breeze from mother-nature was sending down more leaves and Aramina stretched out her hands unconsciously to get hold of one of the leaves.Zach looked at her relaxed face and a complicated look crossed his face. He pushed a button in the car and the roof of the car opened, she turned to Zach to know if he actually noticed her trying to reach out for the leaves but Zach kept a straight face and focused his attention on his driving. Weird guy, but thanks for the consideration she thought as she lifted her hands and grabbed some leaves.They drove for a mile before entering what seemed like an estate. Surprisingly, it was busy, Zach immediately covered the top of the car and drove slowly into the estate. People stopped and bowed as he drove by. He didn’t bother acknowledging them, but instead, wind up his car l

“Where are we going to Caleb?” Aramina asked, she wasn’t really a fan of surprises because she had a bad experience from a prank her stepsisters had pulled on her when she was young.“Zach said not to tell you” Kaleb answered looking sheepish.Aramina glared at him and looked out the window.They drove into the airport,“My job here is done,” he said as he led her to the entrance of the private jet, do go in”. Aramina climbed up the stairs, a hostess smiled at her and said, “Mr. Zach is waiting for you ma”.Aramina stepped into the cubicle and saw Zach; he was on a call apparently speaking to someone from another country since he was speaking a different language, as he felt her presence, he turned and suddenly stopped talking. He looked at her with a look Aramina could not decipher, it was so impossible to read the emotions in his eyes; he got off the call and purposely worked towards her.As he came in front of her, he stood for a few seconds before he said “you look beautiful Mina”

Please do like and comment on what you think about the characters. ********* Aramina glared at him, his heartbeat did not change, and he just stood their reciting his words as if they were rehearsed “I know you don’t mean what you said, but I will tell you what you did wrong, you should have pretended like you didn’t know, I’m already embarrassed that you guys seem to know all about my state of living, my illness is the only secret I had and you went and dug it up” Zach blinked in surprise ‘was this lady for real’, “Ok, no more digging” he closed the gap between them and kissed her forehead “I’m sorry okay! Now come, so we won’t be late” Aramina looked at him for a while, she still couldn’t understand this yearning for this arrogant man “Ok, let’s go”. Zach heaved a sigh of relief as she walked back to the car. It took him a few moments before he realized that he apologized to her. Sh

A few miles from the building, she saw the landscaping of the site; hedges cleanly trimmed in an up-side-down form, wired with different colored tiny lights, The driveway was filled with red petals which drifted scattered as they drove in, and sculptures of different persons were placed at the center of various water fountains in the compound. The expression on her face showed that she wanted to know things about the sculptures. As they turned to a corner, she saw a huge white castle with pergolas crawling on the walls. She was super excited, that she forgot her initial squabble with him. Zach packed the car in front of the castle, came out of the car and opened the door for her to come down. He offered his hands to her and walked her into the castle. He had a scowl on his face, like someone who swallowed a bitter pill, but Aramina was too happy to actually bother with the look on his face, not as if he had ever smiled.Everywhere in the castle was dark and Zach told her to wait at

He tasted just like she had thought; earth after the rain and a sprinkling of honey. She could feel his body tensing for like five seconds. "I’m sorry, I didn't know what came over me", she said as she broke the kiss, she was reeling from embarrassment. “Excuse me,” she said as she tried to stand up and walk away, but he let out a growl and held her waist forcefully causing her back to hit his front, her eyes widened as she felt something poke her back, she wasn't naive enough to know that he was aroused ‘... Wait, aroused...’ She turned and snapped up her head to look at him but he immediately clashed his mouth into hers, sucking her lower lips senseless, as his hand moved to cup her buttocks, she felt the sparks again, and as she opened her mouth for air, he delved in, forcing her to submit to his tantalizing taste. This time, the sexual tension was real and as their tongues clashed, Zach pulled her to him like he wanted to meld her into him. Maybe, it was the champagne but she

She could hear the shower running, as the events of last night flooded her mind and she blushed furiously.She had never behaved so spontaneously, but with Zach, she kept acting out of character.She blushed furiously when she remembered how she came on his hands.Zach stepped out of the bathroom, already fully clothed, Aramina frowned, secretly, she had been hoping to see him half-naked.Last night, he had held her hand and prevented her from removing his cloth.“Are you already leaving”, she asked anxiously,“No, I have to meet with Caleb over something. Have your bath and get ready, we leave in an hour”. He approached her on the bed, kissed her forehead, and left.Aramina had expected a more romantic morning, ‘had they not shared a night together?’ Zach's cold an

Aramina dressed up for her movie night, she loved watching movies especially if she didn’t know what to expect from the movie. Dressed for the night, she skipped out. As Blake drove her to the cinema, she thought about Max’s conversation with Zee. She didn’t like that they agreed to go out, not that she was jealous, but she knew that Zee was manipulative and was definitely bad for a sweet person like Max. She had not meant to hear their conversation but she couldn’t help but overhear as she walked away. Zach stood at the entrance of the cinema in his work attire, he noticed the ladies’ eyes on him as they passed by, they were really eyeing him like candy, which was irritating, he was swearing off candy for the rest of his life. How could mina compare his handsomeness to candy, a small smile crossed his face as he remembered her face at his embarrassment. He had never shown such vulnerability to anyone since he was fifteen. He knew it was no longer the mate bond, he was getting fond

Karen slowly walked up to the witch, she was still as beautiful as ever, but Karen knew better, her insides were nothing like her beautiful shell, she was deception in human form. It had taken her a while to find her, she was surprised that she hadn’t moved across the world to avoid Zach, but again, Sabrina was pompous and she often left a mark wherever she went. Everything about the bitch was bad news, but they had to admit that she was one of the best witches the pack had ever had. “What do you want, Karen” Karen smiled, the coldness in the witch’s voice did not hide the fear she felt. Halting, she smirked coldly, “come on Sabrina, that is not a way to greet an old friend.” She slowly walked in circles near the witch, she had never liked Sabrina, the witch was one manipulative bitch that often got Anita in trouble. Looking around the room, she could not help but smile in satisfaction. The room was definitely like a hermit’s place. A far cry from Sabrina’s choice of an ideal room.

Aramina blinked at him, her demeanor changing, she couldn’t believe what he was implying, “ is that what all this is about, you...you...think I ... a...am too close to Max,” she stammered not really ready to articulate his assumption. “How dare you?” She finally screamed out, “you know what, you are crazy and I will be a fool to listen to this gibberish coming out of your mouth,” she said and opened the door to leave,“where the hell do you think you are going, it is already past two and everywhere is pitch black, damn it” he said as he closed back the door and successfully locked her in, she struggled with him even though she knew it was of no use as she bit down the tears that were threatening to seep down her eyes.

A free chapter to thank you for hanging on ... As they drove off, she instinctively knew he was angry and with the way he calmly led her to the car, they were not up for argument. But she ignored the frosty atmosphere, “why are you not asking me what I was doing there?” she asked him. He glanced at her and continued driving, “seriously, are we doing the silent treatment now? Look, Max is my friend, practically the only one who talks to me at school and there was no way I couldn’t have answered him when he called.” Zach’s hand tightened on the wheel, he really was not in the mood to banter words with her. Clearly, she didn’t know who Max was in this world, he couldn’t stop imagining the tense atmosphere when he stepped into Max’s office. “I really think Max is innocent, why don’t you investigate properly before suing him, I mean, his company isn’t as big as yours and could easily crumble under your attack, I have lived with my step sisters and I have watched them do things that I la

Zach came in late, he was really exhausted from the press meetings and paperwork he had been handling for two days now. He came back late, so he did not want to bother Mina, but he had missed her. She was the only one that can give him a bit of strength, so he thought of just going to her room and cuddle, just cuddling and perceiving her soothing scent. but first, he had to eat. He entered the kitchen and made an omelet for himself. “Sir,” Blake called quietly from the kitchen entrance. Zach turned around, from the look on Blake’s face, he knew that he was not going to like whatever news he brought for him. “What is it, Blake,” Zach asked seriously. “Ma’am left twenty minutes ago,” Zach growled as he looked as his watch, this is 10:30 pm, “where did she go to?” Blake hesitated, he had tried to stop Aramina but he could not use brute force on the future Luna, plus she was a piece as she threatened him. “To see Alpha Max, Alpha” “what” Zach said immediately dropping the last bit

“You are stupid and dumb” Max shouted at his Strategy manager. He had just returned from Ara’s school to hear that one of Zach’s secretaries who had been helping them sabotage Zach’s business have been arrested and that the police had called in his strategy manager in for questioning. “You were not supposed to be caught, you moron. You are useless. You were set up by a fucking woman and caught. Just a simple task, a simple freaking task and you couldn’t fulfill it. Fool,” he screamed throwing the files on his table at him. The manager groveled on the floor pleading with Max, “Please sir, I’m sorry.” “Get the hell out of my office and consider yourself fired.” Max knew that if the police had arrested Zach’s secretary, it means that Zach was onto him. “Gather up all files related to Bando Steel and Riz motors that have my signature in them and trash them. Get someone to forge manager Ralph’s signature and append on the ones yet to be signed,” he instructed his HR manager over the la

“Are you okay ma'am," Blake asked looking at Aramina from the rear mirror,"I'm okay, thank you".The story Alpha Recdolf had spun on her was a pure tragedy, no comic relief. She knew she liked Zach well enough to just up and leave because of some scary childhood tragedy.“Theia," Aramina called to her wolf, but Theia was quiet, "you can't ignore me forever, you know."She breathed out as the pack house came into view. She was comfortable here, she loved the new Zach she was interacting with now, and she knew he loved spending time with her. The attraction between them was not something she could just throw away because of some bad luck in the past. She smiled as she saw Zach standing in front of his house, she knew she was a few hours late and she was surprised he wasn't blowing up her phone yet. As Blake stopped the car, she flew out and gave Zach a hug. He responded almost immediately, pulling her closer to him as he buried his face in her head."I missed you," she said snuggling c

Aramina looked at the man sitting in front of her, she looked nothing like him, his pupils had the enchanting gold that she was starting to get used to, his hair was midnight black and even when it seems his eyes were sad, and it had the seriousness of one who had seen the worst of life.“What do you want to say to me, Alpha Recdolf?” she asked him.She could hear his heart quicken as he stared at her.“Chloe” he saidAramina scrunched up her face in confusion, “what”, “It’s Chloe, that’s what we named you before we saw you.” Alpha Recdolf looked at her. Aramina could see the longing and regret in his eyes.“Your mother was always sick on the sixth month of her pregnancy, I couldn’t understand why, most wolves didn’t even see pregnancy as a task to feel sick on, but her own was separate, the whole of the sixth month was scary. Sometimes, she would stop breathing and only her warm body will signal that she was alive. She had your fiery personality, so she fought. After watching her on
