LENA’S P.O.V. I wouldn’t lie, I loved every part of playing water with Alexander. For some moment there, I forgot about the things that were bothering me and just lived freely. Alexander also laughed, I had never seen him like that before. A student who saw him too announced it with a shocked expression. “You can change in my office.” He came over to me, looking at my wet clothes and that was when I realized. “Did you do this to make me change my clothes?” Anger erupted in me. I should have known that Alexander was a brainiac. He had come up with this water game to get me wet and offered his office as a place where I could change. “What? No!” He leaned back, denying it. ‘Lena, trust him this time!’ Elena said giving me no choice but to go with him. We stopped at the girl’s locker room to grab my sports fit before heading back to his office. Alexander shut the door behind him as I stepped in, looking around his office before turning to him. “Why are you still here?” I asked a li
ALEXANDER. She didn't go to talk to me. Lena said we were over. She hated me now. Everything was my fault. Every single thing was my fault. I should have listened to her. I was so obsessed with revenge that I forgot about her feelings. I punched the wall behind me after she walked out of my office. My hands were shaking. My mind was in different places and my head was piling up different scenarios. Shit! I fucked up. What could I do?How could I make this better? I was panicking. I couldn't believe that I was panicking. I walked over to the work table and grabbed my phone before settling into the seat. How painful was it? What drugs was she on? How could I make her feel better? I searched all of this on my phone but no results came through. To think that I was the cause of it, goodness, I ran my hand in my hair. It hurt so much. Too much. I wouldn't lie, I felt guilty. I wished that I had listened to her. Stopped the wedding and slept with her in my house. This would have be
LENA’S P.O.V. I didn't feed my father. I had forgotten to leave him lunch for the day. This was because I was shaken by the incident with Alexander in the morning. I forgot to leave him lunch and also bring back his potty pan. Getting to his room, I was shocked to see that he had pooped on the floor. He did not seem to care about what he had done. The room stank but I couldn't show it. “Dad,” I said. I did not expect him to do this. He could have just waited for me to arrive. He stared into space, his eyes filled with no emotions. I sighed, tears growing in my eyes but I walked over to clean him up. When I got closer, he grabbed my neck and I gasped as his fingers thinned into my skin. “Dad…” I called lifting my head to see his emotionless face. He glared at me and said, “Bastard!” He spat at my face and dragged his fingers down my skin until I was able to move away. “You are a bastard!” He yelled at me, looking into mine. His orbs were filled with disdain. His fingers trembled
ALEXANDER’S P.O.V The excitement I felt planning this date was something I had never felt before. The mere thought of it gave me goosebumps. It felt like nothing could ever ruin it. Plus, she would forgive me right after the date. ‘If she forgives you, what's going to happen next?’ Tyrant asked. I didn't know. To be honest, I hadn't thought about it. My revenge against my father was still there and I couldn't divorce Tina yet since we just got married. Although divorcing her now wouldn't make me lose the Beta position. Still, it could get the people talking. They could assume that I married Tina just to become Beta, which wasn't even a lie. The entire date was smooth, I booked a place for us in no time. Being Beta made things easier, I got the VIP tables too. Flowers was going to be there for my partner. Afterward, I got her a dress and shoes. I got about four since I couldn't choose the best one. I have seen women wear them and they were quite classy too. I was one hundre
LENA. “You don't have to tell me what is wrong. I am here regardless, take your time. Do anything to be comfortable.” Isaac ran his fingers in my hair, soothing me. I had never thought that Isaac would be the reason I was able to get through the night. He slept next to me, my head on his chest as he ran his fingers in my hair. It felt better, having someone next to me made it feel better. Just when I was drifting to sleep, his phone rang which made me jerk back. He did not take his hand off me, he reached for his pocket and plucked out his phone. “It is my dad.” He whispered. He picked up the call and then pressed the phone against his ear. It felt awkward being in the same bed with him. Isaac was untouchable being the Alpha’s son. He was always on a high pedestal. I had never thought that he would be on the same bed with me, soothing me. “Dad, I am fine. I am in Lena’s house,” he said. “Later, Dad.” Then he ended the call before pushing it back into his pocket. “What did the
ALEXANDER. Finally, I found the scrubbing brush in the under sink. Her blood had stained the bathroom floor, thick chunks of blood. I grabbed the detergents and started working. She didn't glance at me once, she stared at the wall and never at me. She hated me that much. I deserved her hatred anyway. After washing the floor, rid of the blood, I turned to her. She didn't pull her shirt. The bathtub had foamed up enough for her to bath in but she didn't pull her shirt. She grabbed the sponge and washed her legs and arms yet she did not pull her shirt. ‘Her boobs. Maybe she has a hard time looking at them.’ Tyrant came forward, looking at her through my eyes. “Should I give you some privacy, to bath well?” I asked. She shook her head. “There is nothing to see.” She answered quietly, washing herself. ‘I think that I am right.’Tyrant added. I held the brush stick tightly. It couldn't be. I had traumatized her greatly. This was all my fault. All of these was my fault. How could
LENA’S P.O.V. I wanted him to stay with me. I didn't want to be alone for the night so I told him to stay. A part of me was disappointed with myself, that I couldn't control myself. I should have stood my ground and said that I didn't want him after all that he made me go through. He had a wife too, I shouldn't be with him right now. However, I couldn't. He was my mate and I loved him. I loved him very much and wanted him to be mine. He smiled when I said that he could stay. He wrapped his hands around my waist and carried me out of the bathtub. Getting to my room, he placed me on the bed gently. “The towel?” He asked. I was wet, the top I wore was very wet too, soaking my bed up. “There.” I pointed at the wardrobe. He walked toward it and grabbed my towel. Then he came back and wrapped it around me. “Let me pull this.” His eyes were on my face, not my chest. I didn't know why I felt relieved that he wasn't staring at me there. He wrapped the towel around my chest, securin
LENA. The next day, I got a period package. There was only one person who knew about my menstruation. I couldn't help but blush after I received the package. “Someone has a secret admirer,” Isaac stated. He was next to me when I received the package. I got into his car with the package on my lap. “I wouldn't say a secret admirer.” I blushed. “So you know him?” He asked but I did not respond. There was no way I would tell him Alexander was the man. Whatever relationship we had now was to be kept a secret. Yesterday, he helped me with Dad. He sprayed Dad’s room with sleeping fragrances hence he slept off. This way he cooked the food and disposed of the man’s potty pan. This morning when I went to Dad’s room, everywhere had been cleaned. I was shocked that Alexander took his time while Dad was sleeping. It just made me happy knowing that he did all of that for me. However, a part of me was scared that Alexander would find out that Dad was the one who wanted to kill him the other
LENA.“Hold on, who are you?” I asked, turning to her with an apt attention. She mentioned Alexander’s name when no one but me, Isaac, and Alexander himself knew he was my Nate. Who the hell was she? “Knowing who I am is not important right now, Lena. Your mate is in trouble and if care is not taken, you are going to lose him!” She warned, her eyes serious. Fear coursed through me instantly. Alexander? Could he really be in trouble? Or this woman was playing a prank on me. I stared at her for some time before giving a head shake. “I don't believe you,” I said. “Sure. I knew you were not going to believe me but listen to me at least. Alexander needs your help. At this point, the pack needs your help too.” She went silent after, probably allowing me to think what she had said through. For some second, it felt like I was in a movie. Because what did she mean by the pack needed my help? The help of an ordinary cursed omega? “Yes, your help. I know it is hard for you to believe. But t
LENA. Isaac told me that everything was weird and there was more to see than they showed. The pack had become more silent since the reign of the new Luna. Alexander had stopped coming to the school, and he had moved into the pack house. A new teacher replaced him and took us for the rest of the semester. Everything changed. It became quiet and I hated it. Every day, I woke up with the hope that I would see Alexander crawling up my window. But none of that ever happened, I didn't see my mate and I missed him so much. There were days I cried all day on the floor of my bathroom and other days, I cajoled myself to be strong. Lady Tina and Alexander’s relationship got stronger. I knew because I was stalking her page. She posted all about her husband who was the Beta and also the son of the Alpha. It was all over the pack page and everyone talked about it. It broke my heart every day. Isaac helped me go through each day. We became closer because he helped me to study for our final
LENA.He crawled into my room after I had opened the window for him to come in. It was Isaac, and he didn't look so good. “Are you okay?” I asked as I pulled back for him to sit on the bed with me. He shook his head. “She is evil, Lena!” He raised his eyes and all I saw was pain. He ran his hand upward and back into his hair. “Alexander’s mom?” I asked and he nodded. “She is evil! She released the videos of my mom and guess who gave her those videos? “ He raised his brows and I shook my head lightly cause I didn't know who had done so. “Alexander, that man gave it to his mother. They planned to ruin my mom all because of a past relationship. Now, I am the son of the Luna who cheated on the Alpha!” He hissed with discomfort and lowered his gaze back to the bed which we sat on. I could feel his pain so much. I didn't grow up with a mother so I understood what It was like without one. “What do you want to do?” I asked. He shook his head. “I don't know. Dad has completely turned
LENA. Isaac was just as shocked as I was. Why was Alexander’s mom with Lady Tina? Where was Alexander? Why would Alexander’s mom try to kill Isaac? I did not understand even one of the things that was happening. I had to try and find answers to my questions. “What do you plan to do?” Asked Isaac. I didn't know what to do. To be honest, I couldn't walk up to them since they both hate me obviously. But since they were both here, I could go to Alexander’s home and check if he was there. I needed to meet with him and ask him a bunch of questions. “Isaac, I am going to see Alexander. Distract Lady Tina and his mother for me.” I held his arm and squeezed it before running off. Luckily, there was no one to stop me from ditching school. Soon, I arrived at Alexander’s home; the one he shares with Lady Tina. My heart pounded hard in my chest. I was scared of what I would find. Maybe there was no other explanation for all that was happening. He really did not like me, maybe that was the o
LENA. I couldn't discern what was happening, all I knew was Alexander's mother had replaced him. I thought she was bedridden and was too weak to stand. Alexander told me these which I now clearly see was a lie. Someone who was bedridden three days ago shouldn't be able to walk perfectly in So Kate Louboutin shoes. How could she carry them efffortlessly? Well, she was pretty which was the reason she was accepted by the others except me who found her suspicious. After she was done teaching, I ran up to her as she headed to her office which was for Alexander. “Hi!” I was out of breath by the time I caught up to her. She walked really fast like she wanted to meet up with something or someone. Her eyes glazed over when she saw me and her blue eyes which looked like that of Alexander dilated. “You?” She smiled but the smile didn't reach her eyes. She looked like a mean mother. “You know me?” I asked surprised with the expression. The first and only time I went into her room, she was un
LENA. “You were right,” I said shamefully getting back in my dad’s room. I had never been humiliated in my life, humbled, and felt like nothing as much as I did that day. My dad laughed and reminded me that I was bad luck. Alexander realized that sooner and ran. He said that I was going to remain by his side forever and take care of him until the day that I did. He mocked me. He laughed and his laughter resonated within me. It hurt so much that it felt like I was going to die. Yet, I did not exchange words with him. I went back to my room and smiled gently yet tears slid down both sides of my eyes. I thought that I was never going to come into this room again. The heavens must have laughed at me when I thought that my next room was going to be the one we would share in our new apartment. I was dumb to have really thought that we were going to be together. Ha ha. I wiped my tears and walked over to the bathroom where I had a relaxing bath. I stayed in the shower for hours, allowin
LENA. He didn't come. I didn't go home. I waited until it was dusk when I knew he wasn't ever going to come for me. Yeah, the dusk two days later when I finally realized that he wasn't going to come. Then I realized that Dad was right. I was bad luck and no one would spend their life with me. The realization hit me like the cold in winter, I wasn't prepared for it. So now I just stare into space, taking it all in. I remembered what my father said to me, the words he stated, and how he did. The realness in his eyes and I realized that he was right. He had always been right. I was bad luck and that was what I had always been. Mom died because of me and he lost his legs because of me. My mate was with his new wife he married. Everything was somehow connected to me. “You weren't the one that ran that night, it was Annabelle. You only took the blame for her because you didn't want her to get in trouble. Don't blame yourself for the accident, it wasn't you he went out to loo
LENA. The next morning, I woke up with so much joy. I was happy that I would finally be with Alexander for the rest of my life. By five in the morning, I was done attending to my dad. I paid extra attention as this was going to be the last time I would be taking care of him. He was awake by the time I was done cooking. I sat in front of him and placed the food on his lap. He didn't say a word to me even as I watched him. “Dad?” I called. He did not respond. He gently took some of the toasted eggs into his mouth. It was as if I wasn't in the room with him. He had his eyes on the plate, a sad expression etched on his face. Disdain spreading in both of his eyes. “Dad, I want to hug you.” I let out. I wanted nothing more than to wrap my hands around him as this might be the last time I would see him. I saw his hands pause before he raised his head and looked at me. He stared at me, the anger in his eyes ever strong. They showed me how much he hated me and blamed me for the things th
LENA. I didn't have any choice but to tell him. He froze, staring at me for some seconds. He ran his hand in his hair and then placed one hand on his waist. “Your dad wants me dead?” He asked “Because you took the beta position and his wife. You can't come in here.” I shook my head. He sighed, running one hand in his hair again. “I don't even like her. I don't want the position either. I just…” He sighed. “If I stop, will it make him happy? Will you come with me if I put an end to all these?” He asked.Put an end to what?I wondered what he was talking about. “Look, your hand is bleeding. He hurt you that much, right? I want to take you away from here, Lena. I don't care about anything anymore right now, let's leave together.” I hid my wrist behind my body, just staring at Alexander as he talked. Dad had thrown the lamp at me because I came late and this was the reason I started to bleed. “What are you talking about, Alexander? What are you leaving behind?” I asked. He starte
