NATALIE'S POV

"Stop staring at me, Natalie. And wipe the side of your mouth. They're still waiting for your greeting," Ace whispered to my ear, a smug smile playing on his lips. I cleared my throat and wiped my hands across my lips, hoping to wipe off some drool but there was nothing there. I pinched Ace's arm then turned back to the wolves.

"Thank you. You may arise," I told them and they all rose up. Ace gave me his hand to hold and walked me to a throne in front of the room. Sitting down on it, I still couldn't help but steal glances at Ace. He looked extremely sexy right now. Did he put extra effort? His hair was combed to perfection and shined. I wonder how it'd feel like if I ran my hands through his hair.

"Alpha Ace," an old man with a walking stick said, coming closer to us. Beside him were four other elderly people. Three men and one woman.

"Elder Ryan," Ace greeted, stoically. "It has been a while"

"Truly. Is this your chosen Luna?" Elder Ryan asked

    NATALIE'S POV "Ace, come bake with me," I told him as I snacked on the chocolate in my hand. Ace raised his head from his laptop and glanced lazily at me. "No," he replied, then turned his attention back to his laptop. I scowled at him then stared at the television. "Don't you think you work too much?" I asked him, standing up. Ace threw me a nonchalant glance then shrugged, facing his screen. I sighed and went to stand in front of him. "I am so not feeling this. People are meant to relax on weekends. Not bury themselves in work," I told him, grabbing the laptop and shutting it off. "Natalie, I'm doing important business," he said, frowning. "You're rich as it is. Slack off a bit. Besides, be my company! Sophia's asleep," I told him, pouting. Ace sighed and ran his hand through his hair, messing it up and making a few strands fall on his forehead. "Fine. What do you want to do?" He asked. "Great. First, I have a list of movies we're going to watch. Then, you'll help me b

    NATALIE'S POV "Is this like a bad habit I don't know about or what?" I asked as I glared at the paper crumpled up in my hand. Shrugging, Ace strode to the bed and sat on it. "I'm pretty sure I remember seeing this exact card on your desk but I didn't have the time to check it out. You really do enjoy seeing me run about like a mad woman, don't you?" I continued as I rummaged through the closet. "No lies there. It makes you look sexier," he answered, winking. I put my hands on my hips as I looked at him exasperatedly. "Ace! I'm extremely unprepared and I don't know what questions to expect? What if they ask us how we met? What should I say, huh?" I asked him, incredulously. "I don't know. Figure it out," he said. I growled angrily and threw a pillow at him. I ran my hands through my damp hair and sighed. I went to sit by his side so we could plan. "What?" he asked with a puzzled expression. I glared at him and answered, "The interviewers are going to be

    NATALIE'S POV "I know you did this to me," I told him then pointed at my green face. I had run out of the bathroom and to the kitchen where everyone was at the moment just to meet Ace. The rest of them were trying to stifle their laughter and I glared at them. "Charming Natalie DeLuca? More like charming Natalie DeAlien," Ava taunted, laughing. Ace and the rest burst out into laughter and if not for my face being green, I would have blushed! "Ace, what have you done?" Sophia asked, wheezing. Ace cleared his throat and glanced at me, the amusement clearly written all over his face. "I just wanted to offer you people free comedy," he said. "At my expense?" "Of course! You know you deserve it after yesterday," he replied. And by yesterday, he meant the story of how we met. 'I'm glad I don't have a face like yours or a mouth as big as yours. Sheesh!' Tania shuddered. Ugh—really? Now? 'Bitch, we're literally the same person!' I told her, incredulously.

    NATALIE'S POV Sorry wouldn't cut it and I knew it. Ace would definitely pay for humiliating me yesterday. I'd make sure if it. I scoffed. In fact, he didn't say sorry. He said, 'I apologize'! If not an egoistic person who se would say that! Idiot! I was pulled out of my thoughts by the car jerking to a stop and I looked out of my window to see that we had arrived at City Hospital. I had followed Sophia to the hospital for her appointment and so I could execute my revenge plan. "Let's go," Sophia muttered as she stepped out of the car. I nodded and followed behind her. I noticed her chewing the bottom of her lip and wringing her fingers together. Strange. "Something wrong?" I asked her. She heaved a sigh as if she had been waiting for someone to ask her that for a while now. "Yes. Everything. I haven't told anyone but I think I like—" "Miss Sophia! Youre early today," a man in a doctor's uniform said, coming to stand beside us. He was holding a bag of some drugs

    NATALIE'S POV "I did," I answered as i stepped forward. Ace grit his teeth then grabbed my hand and dragged my to the room. Or at least that was where I hoped he was taking me to. His grip on my arm kept tightening and at a point, it was so tight I had to let out a cry. "Ace, let go. You're hurting me!" I cried out as I used my free hand to try and remove his from my hand. His grip only got tighter and I feared he'd break my bones. Amidst my protests and whimpers, I didn't realize he had dragged me past the room and into another room outside the house. It was dark out and if not for the soft glow of the lamps around that illuminated the surroundings, I wouldn't be able to see anything. Yes, my eyesight was that bad. Even as a wolf. "W-What are we doing here, Ace?" I stammered out. He pushed me to the ground and immediately I fell, he left the room. Seconds later, a big black Labrador was brought into the room and it had chains around it's neck. I flinched back when he came closer

    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

    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

    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   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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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
