A smile parted Larisa's lips as she heard him say those words. She had won and this was going to be the beginning of her good luck and victory in life. "Thank you Leandro""Alpha Leandro" he corrected her sharply. Larisa wanted to argue. Wouldn't it be easier to seduce him if she could call him by name? But she decided to stick to calling his name with respect; for now."Thank you Alpha Leandro" she corrected herself. "What are you doing? Get to work already" he walked into the bathroom. Larisa let out a breath she had not even realized she was holding. Her eyes closed momentarily and then she set to work immediately. She was genuinely excited about having a job. After laying the bed, she stopped, realising she was not with the cleaning tools. She left the room to get the cleaning tools but by the time she was back, she could no longer scent him out. He had left the room already, most probably for work. The files on the table had been cleared up. Larisa shut the door behind he
Larisa chewed on her lower lip for a few seconds before hurrying to catch up with Leandro who was just about to take the stairs."Alpha Leandro" she dashed in front of him, making him stop. His ever cold gaze settled on her with a questioning look. "What would you like to eat? I have prepared different dishes already. " Larisa asked, the words had slipped out of her mouth before she realised it was silly to her goals.'Slow, I am just starting slowly' she made a mental note to herself. "Leave""Ugh?" Her jaw dropped slightly and his gaze on her turned a bit more intent. "You heard me quite well. You should get off work now and resume tomorrow. I have had enough of your presence today" he said and brushed past her, intentionally letting his shoulder push against her own shoulder. A look of hurt washed across Larisa's face but she was quick to replace it with a fake smile. Larisa wanted to go after him and insist that her job for the day was not over but she decided not to do so.
'I can't do this' Those words rang in Leandro's head and he suddenly let go of Larisa, giving her a small shove that sent her staggering her forward. "I... I am sorry" Larisa apologized, staring at the floor. She did not want him to see her flushed face. Leandro glanced down at the tent that had built in his trousers and then at Larisa and then he quickly looked away. "Let me have my suitcase" he requested for the suitcase that had dropped from his hand when he held her from falling.Larisa quickly did as he had asked her and handed it over to him. She watched him walk out of the room and shut the door behind him. Larisa rested her back against the door and breathed out heavily. She slapped her cheek repeatedly as her racing heart started to slow down. All she had had in mind was to seduce him. She had not taken into consideration that she was not a robot programmed to seduce. She was human who could be seduced while trying to seduce. "Don't think about his body, Larisa. He is
Larisa fell back to the floor, tired and utterly exhausted. She glanced at the wristwatch that adorned her wrist.If she was right, Leandro would be back home in few minutes. She had to make sure dinner was on the table by the time he was back. She had just finished cooking and would do almost anything to be able to get a few hours of rest. She had worked all day and her bones hurt badly.She hit the floor in her frustration. "I am going to die if I spend too much time in this house, cleaning it alone. I have to get what I want and leave as soon as possible" she mumbled and got back on her feet. Larisa had just finished setting the table when she heard the car pulling in. He was back. She quickly stood straight and dusted her uniform. Her hand reached for her hair that was now being held in a ponytail with a proper band. She let her hair down and ran her fingers through it a couple of times. She hoped the exhaustion and tiredness was not telling on her face. Masking up with a
Kimberly walked into the mansion that belonged to her family. The way she walked showed that she was not in a good mood. Immediately she laid her eyes on her father, the old beta, she pouted. Her father was watching a TV show, a glass of orange juice in his right hand. "Dad" she grumbled and hurried over to his side. She took the glass of orange juice in his hand and drank little from it before dropped the glass on the table. "Anything the issue? You seem a little bit pissed" her father pointed out. "I am fine but there is something I really need you to help me with, Dad" her eyes pleaded with him already. "C'mon, you know I will help you if it's something I can help with. Tell me about it.""Of course, you can help with it, Dad" she smiled, feeling a little bit assured of her father's help. "The thing is I really...." She played with her fingers. "I want a change of environment. I just keep leaving home and going to the training grounds everyday. It's boring me"Her father c
The next dayLeandro wiped his sweaty forehead. He had just finished a long run which he almost always started his day with. He glanced at the wall clock in his room. It was almost 6:30 but Larisa was not in his room.For a moment, he wondered if she had given up on working after having to do so much the previous day. "That would be great" he mumbled underneath his breath and walked into the bathroom to wash up. He took a shower and when he was back into the room, Larisa still was not in the room. "She really has given up" he affirmed and went on to dress up. He dressed up in a white shirt white trousers. Black was his favourite but white suited him perfectly too. He sat before his desk. It was a weekend, a day he went to work pretty late. He glanced at the files on his table. They were related to what was going on in the Pack at the moment. He opened the first one and the first notable incident was the death of two people who had suddenly died at the same time with their face
Larisa ran as fast as she could, up the stairs that led to Leandro's room. Tired and exhausted from working so hard the previous day, she had slept too much and woke up extremely late. She had dressed up in a hurry but it was not enough to cover up for her lateness. She reached his door and stopped, breathing heavily. She breathed in and out and adjusted her maid's dress. She knocked on the door and waited for the usual response. She knocked a second time when she got no response. She could scent him so she knew that he was in the room and not at work yet. This time, she got the usual response.She opened the door and rushed into the room. Leandro was seated on the sofa in the room, his right leg over his left leg. His gaze raised and he looked at her with the most irritating look ever. "I am really sorry, Alpha Leandro. I will try hard and cover up every single task of the day" she rushed her words."And do you think that will be the end of this?" He asked. "I really am sorr
Leandro glanced at Larisa. There was a look on her face; a look that had not been there before the guard walked in. Whatever that look was, it had to be about what the guard just said. Did Larisa and Kimberly have a bad relationship?"Leave and get to your work" Leandro said to her."Yes, Alpha" she walked out of the room without a single attempt to remain there for longer.Leandro let out a loud groan. How in the world could he have let her get to him so easily?Wasn't he the one who had promised himself over and over again that morning that he would never have anything to do with her? Where had that resolution gone when she stood right in front of him, making him breath in nothing but her lovely scent? Where had that resolution gone to when she touched his face? Where the hell had it gone to when he almost kissed her?Damn!He was sure those lips of hers had to be addictive. One taste of those and he would crave it again and again and that was going to be the beginning of her fall
"Stop! Don't do it, Larisa!" Larisa stopped when she heard the voice of her grandmother. "Grandma?" She called in surprise and just at that moment, Leandro came into the scene. "Larisa, please don't do this" Leandro said, standing beside grandma. "Grandma! I told you I was scared of this but you assured me that everything was going to be fine" Larisa cried. "That is because everything will be fine, Larisa" Grandma replied and stepped away from Leandro, revealing that she also had a silver dagger in her hands. "Wh... What are you doing, grandma?." Larisa questioned. "When I went to see the witch, she told me... She told me the wedding would really trigger the curse but she also gave me a good news. I also have... I also have the blood of a moon blessed one so I can work as the sacrifice"Larisa shook her head as she understood what her grandma was about to do. "Don't" she shook her head but Grandma just smiled sadly. "I am happy that I at least got to see you get married to a m
"The curse is starting" Larisa was in shock as she stared down at the corpse of the man. "What is going on?""Why did he die?""Another one is dying!""What's going on?!"Every guest was panicking and only a few knew what was going on. "It's... It's fine, Larisa. It's time for you to leave" Leandro grabbed her by the wrist and pulled her out of the wedding venue. "No, no" Larisa whispered as she shook her head wondering how her fears had come true when her grandmother had assured her the previous day that their wedding was not going to trigger the curse. Leandro did not stop running and pulling her along until they got to the car. He pulled the car door open but Larisa did not step into the car. "Risa? Get into the car, you have to leave the Pack before the ones who know about the curse start speaking up and demand you to be killed" Larisa drew in a deep breath and let out a shaky one, her eyes filling with tears. She suddenly threw her arms around Leandro and kissed him hard.
A day before the wedding"Are you sure everything will be fine, Grandma?" Larisa asked over the phone. "I met with an old witch that I have known for some time now. She assured me that the wedding rings is not part of a marking which means the curse will not happen even after the wedding so you do not have to trouble yourself. Tomorrow is your wedding, Larisa. Do not stress yourself over things that won't happen. Tomorrow is going to go very smoothly. Nothing will go wrong" Larisa sighed softly. "I hope so""I am telling you that nothing will happen. The curse will not be triggered by the wedding.""Alright Grandma. I trust you" Larisa replied. "As you should. Now I want you to be at peace and only focus on the happiness coming tomorrow" Grandma said."You know you should be here with me today, Grandma" Larisa grumbled. "I will be at the wedding tomorrow, Larisa. Alex is already there with you guys. You will see me tomorrow""Alright Grandma"The door opened behind her and Leandr
"You should not have come over, Risa. I and Alex would have come to see you over there" Grandma said with a smile as she sat down beside Larisa who had come visiting. "You are my family. I can come visiting my family whenever I want to, right?" Larisa asked, diverting her attention from the television to her grandma. The both of them were in the living room of the beautiful home. "Your wedding is in less than two weeks, you should not be walking all about anymore" Grandma shook her head. "I came to see you. I am not walking all about and there is nothing for me to do right now. Leandro is spoiling me.""Just like you deserve" the old lady smiled. "What about your wedding dress? Is it ready?" Grandma questioned. "Not yet. Everything is happening so fast. The wedding dress will be ready in two or three days. Leandro insisted he wanted me wearing a custom made dress and since it's being made, we have to wait a little""Wow. I can not wait to witness your special day, Larisa" Grandm
"How did it go?" Kimberly asked Hayden who was walking towards her with a tired look on his face. They both of them had moved into the home Hayden's home and life was great for them. "Is he going to punish me for what I did?" Kimberly asked, fear in her eyes. "Yes, Kimberly. I... I tried so hard to beg him but Leandro has made up his mind" Hayden shook his head sadly and Kimberly felt her soul leaving her body. "What did... Did he say my punishment will be?" She asked, fearing what the response would be. "You and I are going to be sent out of the Pack, Kim. We are going to be banished to become rogues"Kimberly gasped, her eyes dilating in shock. She had been expecting such punishment for herself but including Hayden in the punishment when he barely did anything was too brutal, right?"I am sorry, Hayden. I caused all of this" Kimberly lowered her gaze to the floor, her eyes filling up with tears. A smirk appeared on Hayden's lips. "If I did not do that, you would not be in thi
Few days later"You have something to tell me?" Leandro asked, sitting behind the desk at the company. Having being away for quite a long time, he had loads of work to deal with "Yes, Alpha Leandro" Hayden replied and the formal tone made Leandro look away from the file he had been reading through. "What is the issue?" Leandro questioned and Hayden sighed before dropping down to his knees. "What did you do?" Leandro questioned, his brows arching. "I am really sorry, Leandro but I... I told Kimberly about the curse and back then, she was the one who faked the curse. You were curious to know who faked the curse. It was Kimberly and it was my fault that she got to know about the curse in the first place. Please forgive me, Alpha Leandro" He apologized and Leandro lowered his gaze to the floor. "I knew you were hiding something""Kimberly is changed now. She faked the curse so that Larisa would die and she would be able to have you but she no longer wishes for that. She now loves me
Leandro was frozen on the spot as he stared at Luciano, his brother whom he thought was long dead. "Luciano? Is this really you?" Leandro asked, picking his words one after the other, wondering if this was Luciano or Luciano's ghost. "Leandro! It's me!" Luciano replied, standing a few meters away from Leandro with Alex standing behind him. "I really don't know why I did all of what I did twelve years ago and why I did what I did this time too. I don't...." Leandro walked towards Luciano and grabbed his arm."You are alive" he whispered and without letting Luciano say another word, he pulled him into a tight hug. "Luciano, you are alive""I am sorry for all I did, Leandro. I really don't know why I did all of it.""It doesn't matter, Luciano. It was not your fault." Luciano wrapped his arms around his brother and the others stared at the reunited brothers hugging each other. "Alex" Larisa called out to Alex and Alex walked over to her side. "Where did you find Luciano?" Larisa as
Larisa had a playful frown on her face as Leandro walked into the living room with a bag in his right hand and a smile on his face. The smile faded when he saw the look on her face. "Hey" he called softly, walking towards the sofa where she was seated.Larisa turned away from his gaze and Leandro held her wrist. "Did something happen while I was away?" He asked. "Where have you been all these while?" Larisa asked, shooting him a glare. "I have been preparing something" Leandro replied. "What were you preparing that took you away for hours? Your pup missed you so much already""Oh, is that it?" Leandro asked, lowering his gaze to her stomach. "Oh my dear pup" he bent down and kissed her stomach."Your dad is here now, do you forgive dad now?" He asked and pressed his left ear to her stomach. "I think she just said yes" Leandro chuckled. "I have told you already it is a he" Larisa's facials eased as Leandro sat up to look at her face. "Was it just my pup who missed me? Or did
"Here you go, your meal for the evening" Alex dropped the tray of food on the bedside table. "You really are not going to let me go?" Luciano asked. "Not until I am sure that you are changed and you promise me to disappear from the Pack immediately" Alex replied and Luciano rolled his eyes, his gaze landing on the tray of food."Did you add that substance into this meal again? The substance to make me weaker?" Luciano questioned. "Believe what you want to believe, Sir Luciano" Alex replied and Luciano shook his head. "If this has the substance in it, you will get weaker but still, if you do not eat it, you will be hungry and remain weak. So in anyways, you are staying weak" Alex added and Luciano frowned deeply. "You are something else but you just wait till I am out of here" Luciano threatened and picked the tray of food, dropping it on his laps. "Leandro and Larisa are still having a sweet, happy life?" Luciano asked. "Yes and they do not need you, Sir Luciano to disturb thei
