I turned around to see the same person who came to my room and asked me to run with him. He ran ahead of me and now he just appeared from nowhere after I thought I was alone in this escape plan.
"You remember me?"
"No, please! Who are you? though your face looks familiar maybe you could save me the stress by taking off your hoodie, so I see your face" I said flickering my eyes in the shadowy atmosphere.
"I am Tristan, She had come to plead with me that you are in trouble and she didn't how to help you out of it"
I was dumbfounded, what in the world is happening? How did She know I was in trouble? But then I remembered immediately that I tried to mind-link her I didn't work because I didn't get any confirmatio
Tristan's POVI couldn't explain how I felt since the day I saw Valerie at their pack. I was with Beta my father's warrior commanders to get our take from the treaty her forefather's pack signed with my father's pack. It was meant to be always a peaceful exchange expect they prove otherwise, I didn't want the fight to happen but when I thought of Valerie all night I wanted the war to break out so that we can have her to our pack because we never lost a war.Eventually, I had my wish. Since She had come to our pack, I had been looking for a perfect chance to make her know how I feel about her but the opportunity didn't avail itself, not that the opportunity didn't come but I am always shy when it comes to telling a woman how I feel about her. I had been like that all my teenagehood to the point my friends took all my females friends from me because I could
Brook's POVI am not going to let Bradley have Valerie for anyone reason, I deserve to have her because he is a jealous lover, and a jealous lover is desperate and evil. He could harm her one day. Valerie will have peace with me and I will treat her will all due respect. She is that kind of lady whose beauty melts my heart and gives me joy.Bradley doesn't understand love, I understand how love should go than him. Love is an everlasting flower with the fragrance of adoration, respect, and appreciation. My love for Valerie will go from now to infinity. I only see a future without an end with Veda. Whatever promises I will make you her, I will be committed to it. I am sure I will kill her lonely days and stimulate happy ones. She will be my Luna, the mother of my pups. I will have no reason to take her for granted. If she
Valerie's POVThere is the smell of disgusting alcohol, sharp and distinct. My eyelids feel weighted shut, light glowing through them in a reddish-yellow assurance that at least I haven't been dumped in a dark alley. My brain is awake now, with a primal surge of adrenaline that should carry me up to standing but cold,heavylimbs disobey. A background noise, a soft intermittent moan, comes to the forefront now as it gathers momentum, the moan relatively louder.The shuffle of footsteps brings warm fingers that press my arm lightly."Ah, you're awake." A pleasant voice. I lift their chest and one of my legs shoots up, pulling the covers up, causing a cold gust of air to make it feel like I just sat in a bathtub full of ice. I am breathing hard.Suddenly the hard breathing was deterior
Valerie's POV"I know you are not expecting to hear from me at the time and tkin this manner but I just have to reach out to you. I don't expect you to be scared over a future Alpha because I reached out to you, you are like us and you will be like" Brook wrote.I got perplexed at this point because I wasn't understanding what he is saying. Everything is sounding to me like the parable but then I decide to read on."You remember the very day I told you we had to go to the mall to refill some food item. That very day when we got to the mall after buying everything we needed, I stood a the car pack waiting for your to-go use the toilet.I have stayed for over a 1hour or more when it did on me that you nowhere near and it was getting late. So I had no option but to
Brooks' POVI stepped back, balancing my weight on my left foot, and threw my right fist out in a curved punch at his face. Turning ninety degrees to the side, he brought his right forearm up to counter the blow, formed a fist with his left, and threw it at my outstretched jaw.I was in trouble and charged. He threw up his forearms like an offensive lineman blocking a defensive back, but I slipped to the side, pushed his elbow down and away, caught his head, and rolled him into the floor.I thought for a second once contact was made, and he was on his feet, watching me rush toward him in slow motion as he, even more slowly, jumped to his feet. I reached under his shirt even as he pushed past the pool tables.
Bradley's POVI messed up. I messed up so badly. what was I thinking to hurt her in the first place? I was just being too jealous. Now Brooks is going to use it against and make Valerie hate me like trash. I have to catch with her I can let her think I am Brooks has painted me to be to her.Valerie had gotten to her too and locked up herself weeping. She was sitting on her bed, desperately trying to figure out her life. I can’t go back. She thought. I’ve made too many mistakes. I have let my heart out and it was trampled.A knock on her door made her start-up quickly.“Valerie?” A voice asked. “You there?” There was silence for a moment.
Valerie's POVWhat is the meaning of all this? How will Bradley put me in fix with a rose flower? I guess she should just know I am not in the mood for his lovey attitude. It will save him a lot if he gets to know much earlier before it becomes so late.So if I won't take the rose flower from him now, automatically it means I don't love him or have forgiven him. Anyway, I am wise them him now so I will take the rose flower from him and he will never know I hadn't forgiven him.I gaze at his hand holding the rose flower. I notice he was losing strength in the arm and it is trembling. I didn't feel any pity for him that he has been holding it for 1hr. That should be the beginning of his punishment but this very one is salient and that is if he can notice it. I knew I just had
Bradley's POV All my effort was worth it. Just seeing that bright smile on Valerie's pretty face made my day. Me being the reason behind the smile gave me more satisfaction. While I was planning on what to do to get Valerie back to me and the thought of having dinner came to me. I tried to shrug it off because I had never been in the kitchen or boiled a kettle of water before and I don't know how to do it even. I was concerned if I had to take her for a dinner in my home, I will have to be concerned with the kind of meal she will take and how it should be so yummy but the tag is to the chef at the restaurant. He didn't fail my expectation when I called him to change my plan. The meal was just on point. I knew after the meal that I had won heart again, so I brought out the pendant I bought for her and gave
Valerie sat on the sofa, hugging her knees. It was the next evening- Monday evening.“A girl child is not supposed to sit that way.” She heard her mom’s voice from the kitchen.She sighed and sat cross-legged.She appealed to her parents to eschew their questions regarding Jonathan. She lied that they were in a fight. Though the latter was true, she lied about the intensity. “I am angry with him. I will talk to him once my anger subsides.” She gave a wry reply, subduing every small instinct to break into bitter tears.Her head was woolly from the recent happenings of her life. She did not accompany her Dad to their office. She hesitated to even take a bath and moved around in the same dress she wore the previous evening. Every single threa
Ruth saw the despaired Valerie in front of her. They decided to meet for lunch. Valerie delayed and they were there at 2.30 P.M.The waiters were removing the heat chafing dishes off the buffet burner, as the lunch buffet ended.A glass board shimmered in bright lights, highlighting the day’s special menu.Under the date, which was written as 5th of March, there were a series of the day’s special menu.Devil potato, dragon baby corn, and honey chili cauliflower topped the list.Ruth saw Valerie doodling in the menu card with her fingertip, with her thoughts struck somewhere.“Just make it two fried rice.” Ruth saw the waiter leave. “One devil potato too.“ Rut
Valerie adjusted the peach-colored stud she wore, which complemented her salwar color. Jonathan took her to her favorite fashion outlet and gifted her that beautiful dress for her previous birthday.She felt, it was the best idea to wear one of his gifts, as she was meeting him after a trifling misunderstanding. She shot a final glance in the rearview mirror before she got down. She walked straight into the showroom.The blank cheque her dad had given her was safe inside her handbag.“Anything between 40-60L will do.” Her dad told her in the morning.“What Color?” She had asked.“That is your choice.” Her dad shrugged his shoulders. “This is just to convert liquid cash into an asset. Anything of
"Anything and everything looks so beautiful on you because you are just so beautiful.’ She remembered his words when she wore the same green silk saree for the first time for a family function.“Valarie.” She heard her mom’s voice outside. She smiled to herself.Jonathan's family was coming home today. ‘Everything has to be at its best.’ She thought and took meticulous care.“Valarie.” Her mom’s voice was louder.“Valarie are you ready? We just have less than half an hour.” Anu spoke as she peeped inside her daughter’s room.“Almost there mom.” Valarie looked at her reflection in the mirror again. Her green saree was intact as she draped it tightly with
“Cheese?” Jonathan asked as he was looking at his mobile.“Jonathan, for the third time, I want caramel popcorn.” Valerie looked at him puzzled as he was still meddling with this mobile.“Sure, you don’t want cheese on it?” Jonathan still looked at his mobile.There was a sudden silence. When he looked up he saw Valerie glaring at him.“I asked to do whether you want cheese flavor.”“For the fourth time, I want caramel popcorn.” Valerie shook her head.They were there for a movie on a relaxed Sunday evening.The whole theatre broke into hysterical laughter when the stand-up comedian appe
That meant she was upset and he knew it.“I was just trying to understand.” He shrugged his shoulders as he bought the vehicle to a halt. He looked around. It was almost 1.30 A.M. There were none in the avenue that led to her house. She stayed in Bishop M. Avenue, one of the poshest areas of the city.“Hey, Listen, I am sorry.”“That is ok. You will not know how difficult it is for me when you try to bring up the financial status as one of the topics. Your dad owns a 2 crore property in Chennai, right? So economically speaking, you are not poor. Please don’t make me feel insecure by judging me based on the number of maids I have or the nail polish I use. “She looked at him, as she replied in a low tone.“I am sorry.” He held her chin. He tried to con
“Are you sure there is one at the end of this street?” He raised his voice, just to make himself audible.“Yes, Carlos. I saw a two-wheeler repair shop there.” Valerie assured.Carlos changed from his formals to a t-shirt and tracks. “Hell with this Scooter.” He gritted his teeth. His scooter, which he had owned for the past one year, which even survived an accident a few days ago, was now starting to trouble him more. Yet another time, it failed to start even after filled-up up the Petrol tank, several kicks, and a couple of tilts.“Calm down.” She advised.“Don’t you see? I was almost ready. I had to change to my casuals again to get this stupid vehicle repaired.
It was her mind playing a fast one on her because there was nobody in the sitting room, she tiptoed to go to her room to pretend she had been in her room because she knew there was someone at home, so she bent down to pick her shoes so that her footstep won't be heard but then the witch Aunt Ava as fondly called by her was right in front of her stretching herself, Valerie knew she was in deep shit. Luna Vanessa didn't get any better with the turn out of events, she felt the whole thing would be a thing to laugh at, but then "who was that beautiful girl I slapped" she thought. "Where have you been, I have searched everywhere for you, the whole compound is full of dirt, the ground is not mopped and the dogs are hungry " shouted Ava who derived pleasure in seeing Valerie in pains and suffering, she knew everything was in order, and that the whole compound had been swept, but she wouldn't blink an eye if
"Valerie, Valerie, Valerie" Damien called from behind, Valerie waited for him to get close to her"I'm sorry Val" for that is what he calls her when he is remorseful, she Smiled and hugged him and they continued their journey home, just then She remembered Ava and her parents, for some time, she completely forgot about them, she didn't tell anyone she was going to a party because her parents had traveled and Aunt Ava was supposed to be out of town, I hope she is still out she thought, so she hurriedly walked home with Damien, she was happy he came and apologized to her, she was happy that someone saw something good in here still have my friend back she said to him, they spoke about the disaster, the party, her awkward dressing, and Sky until they parted ways to their various houses, Io Valerie, it was an interesting journey home because of the relief she got from Damien, but it was a day she would never forget even in a hurry.
