One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
NATALIE'S POV My eyes felt heavy as I tried to force them open. My head ached with a vengeance and my body hurt if I even tried to move. I could hear someone shouting but it sounded distant and if I listened closer, the voice would sound nearer. "Where were all of you when this happened? How did they get in? Pray that she wakes up else this would be the last time you see the light of day," the voice kept yelling. It uttered all sorts of profanities but two things caught my attention, who was the she being talked about and why would they kill for her? It took everything in me to open my eyes and try to get them accustomed to the bright lights. "Where—am I?" I forced out even though my throat tightened at every word. It felt as if time stopped then I tried to sit up but a firm hand pressed me back down firmly. "Be still. Your body is still in a lot of pain," a male voice said. I looked at the person and saw that they had a mask covering their nose and they were weari
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER NINETEEN
NATALIE'S POV "Wow! Seeing it on a screen feels different you know. And how they've edited it and made it into a perfection is just so beautiful," Sophia complimented, eyes glued to the screen. We had watched it five times now and even I was marveled at how wonderfully it came out. "What I want is to read the comments!" I replied, picking my phone. "Hey, look, Ace×Natalie is trending. Charming Natalie is also trending!" I said, surprised. Sophia craned her neck to get a better view of the screen and she nodded. "See? Even the public thinks you both are meant for each other," she complimented. I gave her a small smile as something twisted inside my chest. Raising my hand, I glared at the clasp around my wrist and said to Sophia, "Do you know anything I can use to get this off? Ace still hasn't removed it." Sophia pursed her lips then looked around. She drew closer to me and took my hand in hers. "It's easy. You just hold this part down, then you pull here. That's it," she expl
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER TWENTY
NATALIE'S POV Ace had been avoiding me for the past few days. At first, I thought he was busy but now it was just too much. Ava on the other hand, had been throwing glares and subtle jabs at me. Which reminds me, I haven't seen Jayden ever since that night. Could he be avoiding me too? I sighed and ran my hand through my messy hair. I raised my hand and pressed the button that'd lead me to Ace's floor. The elevator doors were about closing when a man began running towards it. I pursed my lips then tried to help him keep the elevator open. The man made it in time and gave me a small smile but I was already lost in my thoughts. "I really don't think I should be doing this," I murmured, running my hands through my hair for the 100th time. I sighed and banged my forehead against the wall. "You seem nervous. You're here for a job interview? Though I don't remember us having any openings," the man asked. I raised my head up and glanced at him. He was staring straight ahead, sui
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER TWENTY ONE
NATALIE'S POV "Why have you been avoiding me?" I asked, running my hand through his hair. Ace looked away and tried to push me but I wouldn't budge. "What's wrong?" "Nothing. Natalie, I'm tired and I need to sleep. We can do this some other time," he said, grabbing my hands and pulling it off him. He began walking away but I stepped in front of him. "You've been ignoring me since that day, what's wrong? If you were going to ignore me like this then it'd have been better if you let that man have me!" I yelled, angrily then stomped out of the room. Ace didn't even bother to call out to me or follow me. He just stood there. And it hurt. I ran my hands through my hair and entered the kitchen. I moved to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of vodka. I sat down at the chair angrily and took a swig. "Trouble in paradise?" someone asked. I flinched when I looked up. It was Jayden. He had a cigarette between his lips and he was puffing out smoke. Speaking of which, ho
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER TWENTY TWO
NATALIE'S POV "What are you doing here?" I asked her. A scowl was slowly forming on my face. Emily grinned at me and walked forward as if to hug me. "Natalie, I've missed you," she said, tears in her eyes. She wrapped her arms around me and I could feel her baby bump dressing against my flat stomach. Using my Emily intuition, I came to the conclusion she was rubbing it in my face. "Didn't you miss me?" "No. What are you doing here? Did something happen to mom and dad?" I asked. Not like I cared about those two, but in front of these people, I had to show concern for my family. Yes, Ace, Jayden and the rest were here, having a front seat to all the drama. "Nothing has happened to them but…." she said then trailed off. I raised a brow at her as I waited for her to complete her sentence. She glanced behind her and then looked at me. "Can we talk in private?" "Yes,"I said as I grabbed her hand and dragged her outside. No way in hell would I take her to one
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER TWENTY THREE
ACE'S POV "Fuck! This is bad!" I cursed, running my hands through my hair. When Jayden told me one of our hideouts had been attacked and massacred, I thought he had been exaggerating. Turns out, he had been putting it in mild words. Whoever did this was a monster. "Whoever did this is a demon," Jayden murmured, tapping the replay button. I flinched when he said that word. That was a sensitive word for me. Jayden murmured an apology and our focus went back to the screen. I had watched the video a thousand times but I still couldn't figure out a thing. In the video, my men started dropping down one by one and their blood was spilling. After that, each body set on fire individually. One strange thing was that the building didn't burn. It was just the body and the place it lay on. Then whoever did it came closer to the camera and smeared blood over the lens. Then it blacked out. When we arrived at the scene, there had been strange markings on the area of each person's body. It look
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR
NATALIE'S POV "What happened last night?" I asked Ace immediately he came into the kitchen. He stilled then shook his head. "Nothing. Just a small problem at work," he answered, avoiding my eyes. Strange. I nodded then proceeded to place his plate in front of him. I sat beside him as we waited for the others to come in too. "I know you're lying to me, Ace. What's wrong?" I asked. He ignored my question and kept eating. "How was your night?" he asked. "I saw your bloody shirt," I continued. I'm sure he'd forgotten about that one. His fork clanged on the plate and he stood up abruptly. "You should learn to mind your business, Natalie. It's not everything you're meant to know. On that note, I'll answer your question for the last time, nothing happened." Then he left. As he was leaving the kitchen, the rest were coming in and they each gave him and I strange looks. I noticed a look pass between him and Jayden. "What happened?" Sophia asked. "
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE
NATALIE'S POV As the lady and her acquaintance turned around, I swerved and faced the other side. I didn't want whoever it was to see me. I waited a bit then I turned and I couldn't see them anymore. "Strange," I whispered then I left. I had been feeling a bit dizzy so I went to one of the rooms to lay down. I texted Annabelle and Talia where I was as I lay on the bed. I don't know how long it took before I felt a sudden dipping of the bed. My heavy eyes flew open and I strained them in the darkness. It was an unknown person. My guard immediately raised. "Who are you?" I asked, trying to sit up. The person grabbed my hands and put me under them. They had a wolfish grin and I knew I had gotten myself in some trouble. "Just keep quiet and let me do my thing, yeah? If I like you, I might consider spending more time after tonight," the person said. The stench from their mouth attacked my nostrils and it took everything in me not to gag. I struggled against

One Night With Alpha Ace FROM THE AUTHOR
I'm actually really emotional that I had to end this. I remember when I first started ONWAA I was so excited to delve into their story. It feels like a part of me is leaving. As I wrote ONWAA, lots of new ideas came in and the original plot shook. ONWAA was actually meant to be way longer than this but I found out that wouldn't work. I have so many things to commit to this year, this month especially and if I decided to drag ONWAA out, updates would be slow and I couldn't do that anymore. I am so happy to have gone through Ace And Natalie's story with you. Thank you for your love and support and I assure you, there is more where this came from. See you when I see you! MwahhPS: drop what you think about the story, your thoughts, extra questions etc. I promise I'll answer them.
One Night With Alpha Ace EPILOGUE
NATALIE It's been a month since everything had happened. Last week, I'd discovered I was actually pregnant. So far, I'd only told Sophia. I was currently waiting for everyone to come for dinner. I was going to tell them the good news in a very special way. The first to arrive was Jayden and Zora. Ever since the incident they'd gotten closer. I think they might be dating. After them was Ava. She and I had become great friends now and she was even seeing someone. "Where's Ace?" I asked frowning. "He can't be late again," I added. "Calm down, he said he needed to finish off something at work before coming for dinner. He'll be here in about an hour," Jayden said. My eyes almost popped out of the sockets. "An hour? And I should calm down?" I yelled. "That is not happening," I yelled as I picked up the phone to call him. Zora snatched my phone from me. "Let the man finish his work. He won't run away," she teased. I rolled my eyes as I let out an exhau
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER FORTY-FOUR
NATALIE "Wake up," someone said sinisterly, close to my ears. They stood up and the next thing I felt was electricity jolting through me from my thigh. My eyes snapped open and the first thing I saw was a taser. I raised my head to look at the person. "Georgina," I muttered. She was smirking at me and holding the taser in her hand. "You're finally awake. I never knew you were such a deep sleeper, Natalie," she giggled. "Where is everyone? What have you done to them?" I asked, struggling to free my hands from the rope binding them together. "They're in the next room. Shall we go to them?," she asked. She pointed at a shadowhound in the corner and it immediately came to her side. "Take her and follow me," she ordered. My eyes widened as I struggled to free myself. If that thing touched me I'd be gone. "Don't worry, Jamie doesn't bite," she chuckled. The shadowhound picked up the chair I was tied to and followed closely behind Georgina. The place we

NATALIE "This is where it happened? There's so much blood……and bodies," Zora said, crossing over the dead bodies scattered around the floor. "Your sister really knows how to massacre," Jayden gritted out. Ava stood beside me examining the bodies when her eyes fell on someone at the far end. The person was struggling to call out to us. There was blood all over her face and her uniform had been torn in different places. "Sasha," Ava yelled, jumping dead bodies to get to the woman. She grabbed the woman and placed her head on her lap. "Sasha, you'll be alright. Just breathe, please," Ava screamed, holding the woman tightly. Tears began falling down her eyes as the woman, Sasha, struggled to pass a message. "Be careful. She will come. Two days. Gone," she said, struggling. Ava turned to look at Zora. "Aren't you a witch? Do something! Save her!" Ava screamed, crying profusely. Zora offered her a sad smile. "I can't. I can't interfere with death or there will be consequences," She sai

NATALIE "I'm Zora, Isra's sister," she said, sticking her hand out. I put my hand on my forehead as I stepped back from her. "Hold on, let me help you," she continued, coming closer. I was weak so I just let her do whatever the hell she was doing. "I don't trust you," I muttered. Zora smiled as she placed her hand on my forehead and closed her eyes. She began chanting some strange words and slowly, I felt the dizziness leaving me. "Natalie!" Ace yelled. I opened my eyes and saw him running towards us. "Hey, what are you doing to her?" He yelled. "If he interrupts what I'm doing, there will be dire consequences to the three of us. I can't stop until I'm done," Zora said, eyes still closed. I put a hand out, telling Ace to slow down. 'Calm the fuck down, Ace, she's helping me,' I mind linked him. Ace slowed down but still looked worried. Zora kept her hand over my head for a few more minutes before she stood up. She gave me a helping hand too. I shook my head noticing that I didn't
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER FORTY-ONE
NATALIE ONE WEEK LATER It's officially been a week since our discovery. Ever since then, I haven't had much time to investigate any more. Although, I have been thinking about the vision of Devin Georgina showed me. Two days ago, Amelia, Chloe, Rachel and Jared came so they could attend the event. I was currently shopping with the three of them. "So you're telling me that your life turned into a literal fantasy/action movie as soon as you married Ace?" Jared asked. I stuffed a bagel into my mouth as I nodded. "That's exciting," Rachel said, holding up a dress on my body. "How does this look?" She asked. "Another maroon dress? Let's try other colors,"I said, walking to the clothing rack. "No," they screamed together. "I mean, maroon would look heaven on you," Chloe said, giving me a shaky smile. "Something's fishy," I replied. "Jared, why don't you go look for a suit for yourself?" Rachel said, pushing him away. Jared left without fuss which only raised my suspicions more. "Wha
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER FORTY
NATALIE "A Crysta has a hand in what's going on. And I have a feeling Isra is the Crysta." Ace's words had been repeating itself in my head ever since. I'd finished preparing my speech and I was currently searching about Crystas. Almost nothing came up. I found one particular article about Crystas though. The only good thing I got out of it was that Crystas could be good or bad. The good ones lived like monks and it would be extremely hard to find them. "Natalie?" Emma said, cutting my thoughts. "Yeah?" I answered, glancing up at her. "Ace said he's going to be late. The meeting is taking a while so he sent Jayden to come take you home," Emma said. She stepped aside, making way for Jayden. Jayden was wearing a black button up long sleeve shirt with black trousers. He had on a loose tie and his hair looked extremely messy. "Are you ready?" He asked, coming closer. Emma had left already so I nodded. I packed up my things and walked out with Jayden bes
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER THIRTY-NINE
NATALIE "Rise and shine, princess," Ace whispered in my ear. I groaned and turned around. "Open your eyes," he whispered. I grumbled as I turned the other way again. Ace made a tsk sound then I heard the sound of footsteps. Everywhere got quiet for a moment before I felt cold as ice water on me. "Fucking Goddess," I yelled, straightening up and rubbing my eyes. Ace smirked as he came to my front. I saw red before anything else. "You, idiot. How dare you do that to me? I swear, when I'm done with you—" I said, rushing to hit him. Ace skillfully caught both my hands in his and looked at me devilishly. "You'll what?" He asked, raising a brow. My anger began to clear and I finally noticed something. Ace was shirtless. My cheeks heated up as I struggled to get out of his grip. "Nothing, I was just blabbing. Sleep. I'm still sleepy," I stuttered. Ace chuckled as he let go of my hand. He walked to the bedside table and picked up a glass of water then looked at
One Night With Alpha Ace CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT
NATALIE "Ace?" I asked, knocking on the door of the study. It was already 9pm and I'd just gotten back a few minutes ago. Ava had told me that since we left, Ace hadn't come out of the study meaning he hadn't had his dinner. Which was why I was currently standing in front of his study door, holding a plate of salad. "Come in," He answered. I pushed the door open and went in. Ace was hunched over his desk, looking over a couple of files. He raised his head up to look at me and that was when I noticed he was wearing glasses. "Woah, Ace, I never knew you wore glasses," I said, placing the salad bowl on his desk and walking closer to him. I pulled the glasses off his face and brought them closer to my eyes. "There are a lot of things you don't know about me, princess. When did you get back?" He asked, dragging me to sit on his lap. "A few minutes ago," I answered as I put the glasses back on his face. I pulled back so I could enjoy the view. Men, no scratch that, Ace with glasses was
