Gaius. I felt like hitting something. Hard. How had that man gone as far as being close to signing a merger with a pack and we were only just finding out?“What do we do?” I asked Lisa and Evelyn. I didn’t even know what to think and how to stop the merger from happening. I just knew that it had to stop. “Adam is in the meeting room, waiting for us. So I suggest that we go there and we can all deliberate on the next step to take,” Lisa answered. “You know we can't fully trust anyone.” She added in a whisper, indicating toward the door to show that anyone might be eavesdropping on our conversation. At that, we agreed to continue the meeting at the usual place. Lisa left first to wait for us. About ten minutes after she was gone, I held Evelyn’s hand and helped her out of the mansion. To anyone else, it would look like we were on a date, just strolling under the half moonlight, but we were on our way to the meeting room. “Welcome, Alpha Gaius. Lady Evelyn, how do you feel now?” Ada
Cyrus. I glanced up from the files I was going through. It was the files containing the details of the merger that was supposed to happen between me and the next door Alpha, Alpha Trey. It had taken a while for me to go through the terms and conditions of the merger, but I was finally done with it and I was pleased with the outcome. I picked up my phone and placed a call through to the man. Before the second ring could sound, the man had already picked up. “Hello, Alpha Trey,” I said into the phone the moment I heard his voice from the other end. “How is it going from your end?” I asked. There was a moment's pause from my end as the man continued to narrate how he went through everything and he was just about to call me to let me know that he was content with the agreement we were supposed to sign. “Have you gone through the terms and conditions?” I asked him. Once he replied in the affirmative and didn’t say anything further, I smiled to myself. Such was the authority I had on
Evelyn. “Gai-“ I tried to call Alpha Gaius, but I couldn’t even finish as he already turned around the corner and walked away. I didn’t know if it was my eyes that were deceiving me or if I was just imagining it or if I had truly seen it, but I felt the man had hurried his footstep when he heard me try to call his name. I didn’t want to think the worst of the man but he left me with little to no choice. After that outing that we had, it appeared that he was trying his possible best to avoid me. No matter how early I woke up to look for him, he was never there in the mansion. Each time I managed to come across him, his Beta or Gamma were there to take him away. Or he would have walked away from me before I would be able to call his name to get his attention. After about two days attempt that proved to be futile, I knew that I had to get myself busy before I would start imagining the million and one things that I shouldn’t. And that was why I decided to start helping the pack’s doc
Gaius. “If you’ll excuse me then.”Those words and the walking away of footsteps brought me back to the present. That was when I realized how much o had messed up the date I managed to summon up the courage to get her to have with me. But it wasn’t that I wanted to mess up. It was just that when I walked in and saw how beautiful she looked, I had gotten lost in my head, with a lot of thoughts. Even though I tried my best to make sure that I didn’t lose myself in my wild thoughts, I couldn’t help it. I was mesmerized by her. Even when I knew that she was speaking to me, I was so lost in how melodious her voice sounded that I didn’t know what to say in response to her words. I just wanted to continue to listen to her speak while I drowned in her voice. I wasn’t ashamed to admit to myself, if not to anyone else, that I had been mesmerized by the woman ever since I found out that she was my mate. I had wanted to hold her in my arms since then and whisper words to her. Words that wou
Gaius. I jolted back to life like someone who was being chased. By the time I would open my eyes and look around, I was a little bit confused about where I was. A movement beside me woke me up fully and I gasped as I realized that I was with Evelyn. The activity of the day ran through my mind and I heaved a sigh. The way she laid there like a sleeping beauty made me hard. I sighed and got out of bed, knowing that staying there would do no good since it would only make me keep wanting her. I noticed as I put on my dress that everywhere was silent. I peeped out through the window and saw that everywhere was already dark and the midnight patrol guards were already on duty, meaning that it was late into the night. How had I managed to sleep off for that long?I wondered briefly if anybody from the pack had wondered where I went since evening or if there had been anything that needed my urgent attention. I didn’t let the thoughts of any of that weigh into my mind. Instead, I finished d
Gaius POV. The Lunar Gala. Even the thought of it was enough to leave a bitter taste in my mind. And what was worse? It was only happening in two days. Two fucking days. Which meant only one thing, we had to do whatever it was that we were going to do very fast. Unless, of course, it meant that we were not ready to stop that man that we were after. But everyone was more than interested in stopping the man. Which was why we were at the meeting room in broad daylight, trying to see if our progress was going any further or if there was no chance of winning this particular war against the man. “How is it going?” I asked the other theee members in the room with me, looking from one person to the other. I didn’t want to give them to look away from my gaze but then that means that they had no chance. What was I saying?None of us had a chance unless we were able to progress forward. “Everything is going according to plan,” Adam answered, looking at me directly. He looked like he want
Evelyn. Clara. The woman who I had thought was my soul sister until I caught her red handed and knew that she had done nothing but lie to me all these while. It was because of her I had found myself in the situation I was in with Cyrus. As I looked at her, all the sisterly love I felt for her was no longer there. All I felt was resentment toward her. I held Gaius's hand and squeezed it hard to keep myself from launching at her and attacking her. “Long time now see, dearest sister.” She finally opened her mouth to speak. To anyone wise, they would have easily assumed that she was truly happy to finally meet her sister, except that I realized the taunting in her voice. Even her expression spoke of nothing but the mischief and cunningness of her heart. “I could say the same for you, Clara, except that I wished that I never had to see you again,” I answered with all the anger in my heart. I stole a quick glance at Gaius and noticed that he was already tense and at alert once he saw t
Alpha Gaius. Finally, The D-day was here. It was the day for the Lunar Gala that we had all been waiting for patiently - or maybe impatiently. It was the day that was going to determine if all we had planned for all these while would yield a positive response or we had failed to nip the buds of the daring vicious man we had been trying so hard to bring down. I made sure that I woke Evelyn up very early and we took our bath together to make sure that our scents rubbed off on each other. Once we got out of the shower, I gave her a light kiss and dressed up as fast as I could before hurrying out of the room. “Make her stand out,” I ordered the maids who were going to dress her up once I was out.They all bowed their heads in acknowledgment before they dashed into the room to prepare the woman. While I was alone, waiting and not knowing what else to do, I mindlinked my Beta and Gamma, Zack and Dan, to meet me in my office at once. Barely five minutes later, the door to the office was
