Her words caused a slight shiver to spread throughout my body. However, I shook my head and pursed my lips.
"You're right. He is a horrible of a man. And he makes no effort to disguise it" I replied sarcastically.Despite my calmness, there was hatred in my gaze. I was afraid Stephanie would notice, so I looked away.The reality was that I was paying close attention to every word Stephanie said to me. After all, she seemed to know all of Bennett's secrets.However, when I looked at Bennett, I saw that he was looking at me as if he knew what we were talking about.At that moment, both he and Terrens got up from the couch and approached us. Terrens reached out his hand to Stephanie and she took it."Shall we dance? Alpha wants to have a drink and listen to music" he said."Of course, honey" she replied sweetly.Terrens smiled and turned to me and stroked my hair "We'll be back in a while. Don't offend Alpha" heA slight gasp choked in my mouth and I felt his breath on my neck."Where are you?" Walter asked in a doubtful tone."I... I'm..." I paused as I watched Bennett's expressionHe clicked his tongue with a gesture. It was obvious he didn't want me to tell Walter anything, and I didn't want the two men to see each other and start fighting at the club either."I'm with Terrens, meeting his girlfriend" I finally said."I understand. Honey, I just called because I want to talk to you about something" said WalterAs I heard Walter, I tried to wiggle out of Bennett's grip on my waist. Fuck, I was so angry at that man, at what he was doing...."About what?" I asked with an annoyed frown"I'm going home. My theta needs me. He's very sick. He may not have much time left"As soon as I heard that, my body stopped "What? How long will you be gone?""It will only be 10 days. I promise I'll be back before the w
Fuck, why was I reacting this way? I couldn't let him take control of my life again. I quickly tried to calm myself as I pushed his head away. However, he pressed my chest against his and moved gently."You should enjoy this. It's just a dance. Besides, no one will know you're here with me", he hinted with that husky, charming tone he used to have with me.What distressed me most, however, was the closeness we had. It had been a long time since his arms had intertwined with my waist as our breasts pressed together.For a second, I remembered all the sensations that he brought on me with just a touch of his warm fingers, but I couldn't help but laugh at myself for how foolish I was to fall for his lies.In fact, I never dared to disrespect him or refuse his demands, after all, he pretended to love me so well. But now I knew his true intention and everything was different. Everything I thought was mine was a lie; he had given his
When I felt her close, I got up from the couch and returned to the minibar."Bennett. I...I want to talk about the wedding" she finally said it, managing to stop my movements when I just turned my gaze to her. I didn't respond when she continued "I know you tried to stop the wedding of...".A roar left my lips as I realized what she was saying "Do you really think I'll let that man marry her?" I hinted, taking some more from the bottle. She opened her eyes as if surprised. Her calm expression darkened as she looked at me."I know you tried to stop the wedding too, and I thank you for that. I didn't think a girl like you would dare to say anything in front of the man" I added with a mocking tone as I walked back to the couch with the bottle in hand.She got up from her couch and sat down right next to me "Bennett... you know why I don't want my brother to marry that woman?" Her sudden question caught my attention."Why?
However, before the situation escalated, I opened the mental link to Derek "Come to my office now" I ordered.I was so fucking tired of all this shit. However everything went silent for a moment.I massaged my temples thinking Agatha would finally stop talking, but she opened her mouth again."I've hated that woman ever since I knew you had feelings for her, though you're such a coward that you've never told her. Is it because you're tied to me that you didn't leave with that bitch?" She said mockingly. "Agatha, watch what you say!" I growled while clenching my fists. "Oh, no, you're going to hear me. You think I didn't see how you looked at that woman when she wasn't even your brother's girlfriend? Your brother brought her to the mansion for a party and you almost died when you saw her. However, your brother seemed to have a crush on her too....I gave him a stern look, but at that moment the office door opened. Derek walked i
I looked at him with a soft expression and let out a sigh, trying to figure out what was going through his mind "Bennett, what are you doing at Alpha Manor? You never come here unless it's really important." At my words, Bennett just sighed and got up from his desk. He walked past me and stopped right at the mini-bar, where he pulled out a bottle of vodka. Seeing it, I arched an eyebrow and saw a bottle on the desk. At first I wanted to ask him about the bottle he had found, but as soon as I saw the lipstick stain on the nozzle, a smile broke out on my face. It was obvious that Bennett wouldn't touch the bottle, certainly not after knowing that Agatha had touched it. With a sigh, I walked over to the couch and sat down, looking at him "What are you planning to do about Hester?" I asked. "What are you talking about?" I asked, drinking straight from the bottle.. This man was truly an eminence. I saw him drinking from the bottle without even breathing. I got up quickly
Fuck, I understood perfectly what that contract meant. With a sigh, I closed my eyes and tried to calm down. I didn't want Bennett to do something he might regret. So I turned around and walked over to the picture next to the wall. I pulled the painting out and looked at the hidden safe. For a second I stopped and looked back at Bennett, expecting him to make a gesture of regret, but no, he was more elated than ever. Without further ado, I had to turn around, put in the secret key and pull out the black folder. With a worried snort, I walked back to the desk and handed the folder to Bennett, who took it before looking at me with a terrified expression."Leave your worries alone. I'm fine" he said with a deep tone. On the other hand, I saw him focus his attention on the folder and open it. His eyes roamed over each and every page as my chest nearly exploded.***From Bennett's point of viewI read every single word of this damn contract. However, my eyes stopped on a couple of red
From Hester's point of viewThe days were passing quickly, yet Walter still hadn't returned from his pack, which created an emptiness in my chest.The reality is that Bennett didn't miss any opportunity to tease me. He even started sending flowers, chocolates and gifts to my house. I would just take them, throw them in the trash or give them away to the kids at school. How could that man possibly think of buying me gifts? That morning I woke up early and took a shower; however, my phone started ringing as I was getting dressed."Dean?" I said when I saw the contact."Miss Hester, good morning. I am calling to inform you that your transfer request has been denied" said the dean in a soft voice."What? How is that possible? Why?" I asked with my eyes wide open."I don't know. It was orders from my superiors. So you will have to reapply or speak directly to the superiors" said the man.As soon as I heard that, I hung up the call and threw the phone on the bed. I clenched my fists in f
In fact, I was well aware that everyone at the institute knew that I had been the girlfriend of Alpha Bennett's younger brother, so perhaps the man felt a little strange."Alpha, I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you said" hinted the dean with a confused expression. Although the dean had power over the students, Bennett had power over him and all the higher ranks of the pack, so whatever Bennett said was binding, whether they liked it or not. At that, I saw Bennett look away and focus on the man behind the desk "Hester Winters will get her transfer effectively only if she is my assistant for one day. After that, you can leave the pack without any problem and continue your studies there", he said seriously. The dean's eyebrows went up. Everyone at the institute knew that I had been Bennett's personal assistant, so the dean snapped his fingers and sighed, “Oh, that makes sense."Oh, that makes sense. I see that Ms. Hester Winters did her job well as an assistant. I am very proud
The car drove through the woods for almost 30 minutes. My body felt numb when suddenly the car stopped in front of a huge old mansion.It didn't look like the ones in the pack, it was different, it looked like something out of a fantasy book. There was a huge garden of blue and purple flowers all around, while the pillars were black and the walls were opaque white.There were even several artificial fountains that seemed to have colored water.I was so engrossed by the beautiful scenery that I didn't notice that Bennett had gotten out of the car.I came out of my trance when I saw him open the door on my side and hold his hand out to me with a smile.
I could feel everyone's gaze on me; they were obviously upset. Me, Alpha Walter's fiancée, getting into Alpha Bennett's car? What kind of woman was I?"Shit Did you see? What a bitch that girl!""But what about Alpha? How can he go with that girl? Is he planning to cheat on the beautiful Agatha with that woman?""She was Alfa's assistant. Maybe they already fucked and now she's running into the arms of another alpha?"The murmurs were heard until the car window was rolled up.On the other side, I reached across the seat and crossed my arms angrily. Bennett seemed to sporadically turn his gaze toward me, making me uncomfortable.&n
