DENZEL’S POV:-I returned to the mansion after an exhausting day at work, only to find Mr. Duke offering sweets.And sending his workers to donate food to charity too that bewildered us.“Wow, Mr. Duke looks so energetic today, I wonder what happened.” Lucas said.Turning to me to which I smirked, watching him becoming better was relieving at least.“Wow, he doesn’t look like he had a heart attack.” I chuckled when we reached and got out as well.“True. Something had seriously made him delighted,” “Did he make double the profit or got the least he wanted?”“Who knows? Let’s ask him,” We both laughed a little at his felicity, wondering what caused the man who was sick two weeks ago to jump out of his bed and be so cheerful.“Mr. Duke!”“Ah, Denzel, there you are! Come here.” He laughed, running to me and offering me a bite too of the sweet.“Here, take a bite!” “Okay, okay, What is this for?” I chuckled. I bet seeing him healthy and happy would soothe Eliana so much, she should come
ELIANA’S POV:-How beautiful it would have been if I had never taken his hand in mine…If I didn’t get closer, if I had murdered those feelings the second they entered my heart.‘What have I done? Where will I run now? What should I do now?’With a tear rolling down, I was staring at my reflection with a shattered heart. Dressed for the party Kyle hosted to announce we were becoming parents.That was highly against my consent but since when did he listen to me?“Eliana,” Kyle called, grabbing my waist because I was not listening to the praises he was giving me.They couldn’t fix or do anything.“Huh? What?”“Come, everyone is waiting,”“I told you we don’t have to host a party,” I muttered with a frown. “Why not, darling? We are going to become parents. I can’t tell you how delighted I am,” “Don’t you think we are too young, we both are twenty too,”“It’s alright, it is all about taking responsibility and I will take yours and our baby’s faithfully, I promise,” He grinned.Pinching
Shit. Shit. Shit.For two moments I felt better but it was ruined and replaced with a dread with Kyle coming, drying my throat in anticipation.“What happened, Baby?” He asked softly.Rushing to us hastily, Kyle hastily wrapped his arms around me which I didn’t allow and moved back, wiping my tears. His hands didn’t feel the same as Denzel’s.Each time Kyle touched me, it hurt me, it reminded me about Denzel and shattered my heart.And once again, all my thoughts were unwillingly reaching Denzel.“Is everything okay?” Kyle asked, keeping his gentle tone, touching the side of my face and wiping my tears.“Mhm,” I nodded worriedly. Keeping my gaze lowered, I wrapped my arms around myself, body tensing at his eyes on me. Pressing my teeth, I gradually regained my posture.“She became emotional,” Denzel cleared his throat, faking a chuckle before it could evoke suspicion in him.“L-Look, how she is crying. By the way, congratulations,” Denzel acted professionally causing my lips to qui
DENZEL’S POV:-Holding my sides, losing my breaths, I was pacing around my room angrily, running my hand through my hair in frustration.Lucas was with me while the mansion was empty due to the full moon tonight but we stayed back.And I was losing my mind each passing second.“What happened, Alpha? Why are you pacing around?” Lucas asked worriedly, noticing how distress was gleaming on my face.But I couldn’t help it, I could feel a strange sensation bubbling inside me. My chest constricted. “The way she sobbed on my chest is agonizing to me. I did this to her,” I confessed sorrowfully.I could never fathom I would be the one to hurt her but sadly it happened and it broke her beyond repair.“But, why are you pacing around like this?”“I don’t know but I have been feeling distressed since I have come back,” Halting my steps gradually, I placed my hand over my chest. I could feel my mate was in pain- What happened? I didn’t know.I could feel uneasiness yet there was nothing I could
I couldn’t believe that for the girlfriend, I intended to kill Eliana… today I killed her to save Eliana. I couldn’t fathom how things, my emotions and moments change. Tonight, for her, I ended up killing her.Breathlessly pacing around, pulled my hair out of distress, gritting my teeth, unsure what to do as Lucas was staring in horror.“Fuck, fuck, what now, Lucas?” I whispered, taking a seat, curling my hand in a fist.I was panicking, the mansion was empty. Everyone was out there by the enticement of the full moon while here I was, with blood of my ex oozing uncontrollably.“What should we do?” I asked.Turning to Lucas who took a deep breath before stepping forth and extending his hand out to me.“Give me the gun, Alpha,”I blinked in confusion, “What are you going to do with it?”“Just give me,”“Okay…”I was not sure about his ideas but gave him the gun nonetheless, holding faith in whatever he would do.He took a deep breath, eyes darkening as he turned to Gizelle and emptied
Due to Gizelle’s departure, a scenario of a funeral was created in my mansion, people were coming to fulfill their thirst for drama.She had been there for me for a long time so they were coming to check up on me.While my mind was elsewhere. I barely had any concern about it and thankfully Lucas was taking care of everything. He was handling the unwanted display of sorrow.I was outside my place, holding my sides to think about my next actions until Mr. Duke came and placed his hand over my shoulder.“Denzel, are you okay?”Blinking to come out of my trail of thoughts, I turned to him slowly. “Huh? I don’t know,” I faked a sorrowful resonance so he won’t might not consider that I was relieved over her death. “I heard Gizelle left after stealing your important information,” He added.Narrowing his eyes but I won’t get lost in his words and hummed, making a fist to fake anger and gloom. “I could not believe what a traitor she would be,” “She had always been selfish, Mr. Duke. Onl
ELIANA’S POV:-‘I will please you in a way no man would ever be able to,’ You did, Denzel, you actually did it.A dry smile came to my lips, considering myself naïve for believing in him.Because after the scar he gave me, I could no longer feel the same protectiveness and pleasure from my husband’s.And it felt wrong. I was constantly thinking about another man in my marriage which was the worst part of it. My mind was only revolving around him, forgetting my world. “Where are you lost, Dear?” Mama called after noticing me getting lost in my trail of heavy thoughts.“Huh? Nothing,”Gaining my cognition, I turned to her, shaking my head. I didn’t want to trouble them or anyone about my worthless emotions.When the one I gave my heart to didn’t care then why would anyone else?“When will Kyle return?” “I don’t know. I didn’t bother to ask,” I sighed, leaning back on the couch while eating some grapes. “Come on. Are you going to remain like this forever?” She frowned, astonishing
The next day, my mind was elsewhere, I did not prefer his presence. If he could try to mend bonds now his girlfriend was gone then he was wrong.I am married now. He couldn’t show any right toward MY child anymore, not after abandoning me nor I would allow it. “What does he think of himself? Does he think showing care would melt my heart?” I was fuming inside my room, pacing around in rage. Discard my feelings for him, I won’t melt or be swayed in his trap.“Damn him, I would never forgive him for breaking my heart,” I hissed.Holding my sides a tear pricked in my eyes because all that remained on my heart was a question.…Why?“Why did you do this?” And once again all my thoughts stopped at this point. The question of ‘why’, why my life was stuck here, why did I face this anguish?This ‘why’ would kill me one day.I was surrounded in my trails of unwanted thoughts until Mama called. “Eliana! Come here and see,”“What is it, Mama?” Sighing, I went out to check what she wanted to
