Damon“Yes! Yes! harder! mmm! mmm! fuck!” The sounds of pleasing moans filled the air as I kept thrusting into her. The air was damp and the sexy smell of excitement, a combination of sweat and cum filled my nose. It was all perfect, but I was not feeling it. I was not enjoying it. I had not been for a while.“Yes! Fuck me! Yes! ohh!”The sounds were beginning to displease me. No, they were beginning to irritate me. I couldn’t continue anymore. I had to stop. “That’s enough” I pulled out my cock from her.“Get out”“What’s wrong? You don’t enjoy me? How can I make it better?” she said as she grabbed my cock firmly.“Get out of here you whore!” I yelled“Okay. Okay. I’m leaving.”“But where’s my money?”“Take it on the table and get out.”She grabbed the money and hurriedly left the room before even putting on her clothes properly. I was angry and she could feel it. I had been feeling that way about everything lately.“You didn’t enjoy her too?” Liam, my beta asked as he walked into
Damon“Damn it! My thoughts are a mess.” I muttered. I was in my study trying to clear my head by doing anything possible. But I was pissed that Annie would still attempt to form a bond with me after everything that had transpired between us. I couldn’t wrap my head around why she wouldn’t understand that I don’t give a damn about her anymore. She was just there for numbers and I expected her to know it. The next time she was going to attempt such a thing, I would definitely not take it easy on her, I frowned. I wished she knew how much bearing her name annoyed me, and if she knew, then she would not try messing with my mood every time. While I still tried to get everything together, a voice interrupted me and I looked up, my eyes meetingthe one person that I hated the most, after Alpha River. “Damon, what the hell is going on?!” Annie barged into the room screaming at the top of her voice.I looked up from my desktop and saw her. The reason my life was miserable. The source of
Hayley“Mommy, guess what will be happening in our school in two days time?” Adriella asked, raising her face to me with a smile from where she lay on my thighs and I stared at her amused, with my interest piqued. I had just gotten back from work, an attempt to keep my promise on being around more often, and leaving work early was one of the baby steps that I took. The excitement that I had seen on their faces- especially Adriella’s, as she did a better job in expressing how she felt, in contrast to Adriel who acted a little bit stiff unlike every child of his age, made me feel satisfied, and I did not regret the pile of work that I had left on my desk just so I could meet up. Me, Lanie and the children had dinner together, and not long after, I told them to sit by my side so I’ll read a story to them. Adriel has paid so much attention to it, asking questions like he was trying to unravel a mystery as he sat beside me, while Adriella was all about me, wanting the affections and cu
Hayley“What are you still doing at home?” Lanie questioned me. It was the day of the sports competition, and I had not just promised the children that I was going to come, I had promised to come early. And now, if not for the difficulties I was experiencing in choosing a cloth, I should have left the house for the children’s competition already.“I still can’t pick what to wear Lanie. Do you think other parents would dress casually? Or formally? I can’t really tell” I replied “Just pick a casual attire, dear. It’s a sports competition not a business meeting” She jeered at me. I did not need to listen closely, to pick the mockery in her tone. I was all about work and businesses everytime, so it was fair for Lanie to get at me that way.“And you have to be fast about it. Alex is already here.” She added. “Really? What time is it?”“It’s past 10!” I heard Alex’s voice from downstairs in the living room.Goodness! Adriella was really going to kill me, and as I tried to quickly get a
Damon“So you are saying that you have no idea where Hayley is?” I asked Candice. My voice was sorrowful, and I was rather pathetic at that moment. Candice was not helping, as she intentionally avoided my questions and my gaze by focusing her attention on the sweatshirt that she was knitting. I hated that she had to be that way with me, paying no regard to my presence even as I had been there asking her the same questions for the past 10 minutes. But well, it was not totally her fault, I had brought it on myself.After coming across Hayley’s files at Dr. Flora’s office, she walked into me the next minute and immediately she saw what was in my hands, her jaw dropped open. I tried my best to control myself from flaring up in rage but it was a failed effort as Dr. Flora began to stutter, trying to make excuses for why she had faked a report of infertility when Hayley was in fact pregnant. After a back and forth between Dr. Flora and I, she finally spilled out some words that actually lef
DamonI packed up the last of my clothes that I intended to travel with, into the box, then heaved a sigh of relief. I had traveled outside the pack a couple of times, mostly when I was trying to develop more networks for the company, but never had I thought that I was going to take a trip out of the pack to look for the woman that I loved so much, in the disguise of exploring the U.S market. After waiting for Jake’s feedback the previous day, and finally taking the call, he informed me that from his findings, although it was hard, Hayley had left for Texas. “Texas?” That was my exact reaction to his statement, and my eyes widened in surprise for a little while before finally putting myself together. “Why Texas?” I had asked him. But Jake, as snarky as he was, gave a reply that wasn’t far-fetched from his personality, “I didn’t know that Hayley was married to the both of us.” I scoffed at his reply, but what did I think by asking him why Hayley had chosen Texas?Well, I still di
Hayley“I think it’s finally time for me to wear you.” Sitting on the stool away from my bed, with the mirror in front of me, I said. It was such a tussle more than what I had hoped, deciding on the perfect jewelry set to wear. If not that it was important to go for the inspection that was happening today, I would have preferred to lay back in, sleeping like a log all day.My agents had picked out a potential site to be the location of our latest branch and department store and I had to go and check it out today. Of course, the surveyors in partnership with the strategy and expansion team had assured me that it was a good piece of land in a profitable area but alas I still had to review and confirm it myself.For this occasion, I had picked out what to wear from a few days back but for some strange reason, I could not find the bracelet I had already planned in mind, which could have left me stranded if not that I had so many other bracelets in my closet. My brand was a fashion brand
Damon“That scent, it belongs to my mate,” my wolf protested. It was the afternoon of the day that I was to leave for Texas, and I was glad that everything earlier that morning had gone as planned. The two other wolves that were to travel with me had made everything easier, and as we began our journey in search of Hayley and also exploring the U.S. market as a plus, I was filled with the hope that everything was going to work out just fine for me. Annie had come earlier that morning, with her actions intending to piss me off, but I did not give her the chance to. I was going to take care of her, and finally get her out of my life, but I needed to find her Hayley first, then gather enough information to use to bring down Alpha River.The journey to Texas was a little hectic and long; getting stuck in traffic once in a while and going through bumpy roads. The journey wore us down so, we decided to make a quick stop at a store a little distance from the borders of Texas that we had cro
Epilogue It had been a week since Hayley passed out, the exact time the war came to an end. In a rage, Damon had strangled Gazel, going as much as killing by snapping off his head. From the onset, it was not part of his plan to kill Gazel even as he had agreed to a duel. He was hoping that Gazel could be imprisoned at least, and given some time to amend his ways. But after seeing what Hayley had to go through, he could not bear it. The wolf that had shot at Hayley was also caught by Alex, and he and all of Gazel’s other warriors were imprisoned. “Is she up yet, Daddy?” Adriel who had just met Damon coming out of Hayley’s room asked, and disappointed, he shook his head. “Not yet.”Adriella who was walking some distance away from Adriel heard their conversation, and sad, she ran to her room. She had been trying her best to be calm about everything for the past week. But it was killing to know that her mother was still unconscious from the attack. The best doctors had attended to
HayleyAfter further investigation, we discovered that the message hadn't been about Gazel and Damon, but between Alpha Mathews and Gazel. Since I had reported about the coup d'état and not the war, the council had responded to the coup. I felt bad for what Alpha Mathews was going through, but all I could do was sympathize with him. There was nothing we could do from now onwards, and only a duel between Alpha Mathews and Gazel could settle the conflict. The winner would become the alpha, and the loser would be tossed in the dungeon. The council would have punished Gazel for the coup d'état, but because Alpha Mathews had made a public announcement denouncing his claim to the leadership of the pack, the council could no longer do anything about the coup. It might have been forced at the beginning, but Alpha Mathews' speech and handover had covered up for Gazel's crime. Gazel was a trickster, and that much was known. He was a man who thought ahead, and that was exactly what made him ve
Damon I steadied my footing, and with a powerful swipe of my claw decapitated three opponents at once. These men were weak, a lot more weaker than I had anticipated, but they were definitely larger in numbers. I was yet to spot Gazel, and not seeing in front of the army made my fears return once more. I knew Gazel was a cunning man, but I hadn't expected him to be a hypocrite as well. Leaping to the side, I let out a loud howl before chowing down on a smaller Wolf's head. It let out a stifled cry before I tossed it into the body of its comrades. I had been taking things easy at first because I wanted to believe that they were under mind control. But that mistake had cost me during the earlier stages of the war. Now, I was going on full throttle, and I was willing to take down any opponent that crossed my path with full force. If pitied, these men were going to destroy the entirety of my kingdom, and that was not a sacrifice I was willing to make. I tackled a young wolf and slammed
Hayley"The walls have been breached!" A guard yelled out and my heart immediately sank to the stomach. It was just as Damon had predicted, Gazel had sent some of his men to attack the pack. "Archers fire!" Another order was yelled and soon flaming arrows were being rained on the invading enemies. "You shouldn't be out here, my lady. It's best to remain underground where it's safe. Damon would never forgive me if I let anything happen to you." Liam urged while doing his best to make me follow him into the underground chambers that had been prepared in case of this situation. "No, I'm the Luna, and I will not cower in fear in the face of my enemies. If they think Damon is the only person they should be afraid of, then they are heavily mistaken. I am a mother and a leader, and I'll do anything to make sure that no harm comes to my children and subjects." I made it clear to Liam. He watched me in awe, and I was sure the idea of me being a weakling disappeared from his thoughts. "What
Damon "I won't stay back Damon! I'm marching to the war front with you!" Liam opposed. I had just ordered that he remained at the pack to take care of things while we were at war. I had barely finished when he began to yell out his own opinion. It was the first time Liam was speaking to me without any sense of formality in his voice and character. It was obvious he wasn't going to let me go, not while he wasn't part of my troops. "You have to be here, you're the only one I can trust with Hayley and the children's lives. Alex will be with you, please do this for me." I pleaded rather than order. At this point it was obvious Liam wasn't speaking to me as my beta, but as a friend who wanted to support their friend at all cost. He wouldn't obey orders even if I gave him one, the only way I could possibly get to him was by exploiting his kind heart. "You need me by your side, in stronger than all of them—" "And that's exactly why I want you here. If Gazel has men ambushing the pack, I
Damon"We've managed to camp a few kilometers from Wolfsbane field. The soldiers can begin their march now." Liam informed me. I stared at him for a while before giving him a reassuring smile. I could see the fear and concern in his eyes, and even though he fought hard to hide it, it was as bright as day. "There's no need to hide your fear, Liam. I feel the same way, and I'm sure everybody else does. It would be foolish to be happy and unbothered during the times of war." I said before giving him a pat on the back. "You've done well with preparing everybody, you should take some time to rest. I'll handle everything from here onwards." Liam shook his head fervently in disagreement. "I can't rest, not when there's much to do. Gazel is marching here with an army by his side. We need all the help we can get. I'm not exhausted yet, I'll continue to help in any way I can." He argued. "If you exhaust all your energy now, then you'd be useless when the need comes. I know you want to do mor
Gazel"What do we do about those two? Isn't this bad? Those two could spill all our plans to the enemy." Frederick said in a frantic tone. He was fidgeting in both fear and rage, and his reaction was completely understandable. Lisa had just escaped, and alongside her was a spy I never noticed early enough to dispose. I had to give Tim props, he had been extra careful, and was without a doubt the most dangerous man to me at the moment. I had no idea how much he knew, and there was no telling how much he had stolen. If he exposed much about my plans to Damon, I was sure to fail, but regardless I didn't halt the preparations for war. "Aren't you going to do something? They might have valuable information." Frederick asked with an inquisitive look in his eyes. "There's nothing we can do at the moment. Those two would have probably reached Damon's pack by now. Chasing after them is meaningless at the moment. Focus on getting more men into our troops and forget about those two." I instru
DamonThere was no denying the fear that crept into my heart each time I remembered that I was going to war. I was confident that we would win, but there was no predicting or preventing casualties in war. If I could do anything to prevent it, I definitely would have done it, but that was impossible when Gazel was involved. He was determined to bring me down at all cost, and he had made that fact abundantly clear. He was out for blood, and I too wanted to match his energy. There was no way I was going to let him have his way and do anything he wanted, especially not when it had something to do with Hayley. "Have the walls been fortified? Any reports of ambushes?" I questioned one of the guards that walked with me as I inspected the preparations being made for the incoming war. We had received reports from one of our scouts that Gazel would be marching north with an army of twenty thousand in two days. If we began our match on the same day, our armies would meet on the fields of Wolfs
DamonIt was tough to get everything out of my mind, but with Hayley and the children's help, I've been able to keep my mind off the things that threatened my mental stability. We were yet to hear from Tim, but I didn't let it bother me anymore. Thanks to Hayley's help, I was convinced that he was doing alright, and I wanted to trust in her words more than my fears. "Dad, when will you take us horse riding?" Adriella asked as she brushed the hair of her doll. She had been watching a lot of horse riding shows with her mother and now she wanted to try out the sport for herself. "Once you're old enough to ride a horse." I answered softly before rubbing her head gently. The little girl pouted her mouth in disappointment, but I gave her a smile to comfort her a little. There was too much going on, the last thing I wanted on the long list of troubles was a crying child. "How are their lessons going?" I asked Hayley who was helping Adriel with his assignment. "It's been going smoothly, t
