CHAPTER FORTY SEVEN LISAI heard the car honk as it drove into the parking lot. The activities in the pack house since morning have been making me feel somewhat uncomfortable. The guards and made had been going around. And it wasn't up to ten minutes ago that I began to perceive the aroma of delicious food cooking in the kitchen.The car that drove in soon began to gather crowd around it. I could hear the voices from downstairs. I walked towards my window to peep. I didn't want to stand up from my bed earlier because I was feeling lazy and tired. In fact, I was about to sleep when I heard the car honk. I peeped through the window, and it seemed as though I was late. I only saw Carla and two shadows in front of her. My heart sank into my stomach when I thought of who the owner of the shadow may be. Was it really Elara?I rushed out of my room and stood by the stairs leading downstairs as I stared downstairs eagerly. My heart was beating really fast. Just as I placed my hand on my
CHAPTER FORTY EIGHTELARARiver helped me sit on the bed while he returned to close the door. He returned and dragged the small stool into the room. He placed it opposite me and sat on it. River was staring at me while I buried my jaw in my palm."You are finally back home," he said, with a smile, while he was still staring at me. I only smiled at him. I was deep in thought. I was still contemplating on the thought that Lisa had something to do with the accidents. It was highly possible that she was responsible. But then, it was also not possible. If she happened to be the one, then I wouldn't sit back and watch. I knew that since Lisa had failed twice, she may decide to slow her pace. Maybe, take a break, and she may get even more mad, frustrated, and desperate to try again. I knew that I needed to show Lisa who the real boss was. She would learn the hard way, those she was supposed to mess with, and those she wasn't supposed to even get close to.I mistakenly looked towards Rive
CHAPTER FORTY NINERIVER I walked out of my room, heading straight to the office. I had high hopes that I would be able to get back home on time, as I promised Elara. When I got to my office, I met Harrison standing outside my office. He turned around to face me "You texted me that you wanted to see me?" I asked him. "I am sorry for calling you out like this," he started with an apology. "It's because of a construction that intruded into our land."I scoffed. "What construction?" I demanded. "The black blood pack is constructing a building close to our space. They crossed their border, thereby taking part of our pack's space," he informed me. "What did you just say?" I shouted at him. Harrison was about to respond, but I cut in immediately. "Take me to the place."He should pray to the moon goddess that it wasn't true that they trespassed into my pack. It would be bloody. Damn bloody, cause I wouldn't take it lightly with them at all. How dare they. We both began towards the
CHAPTER FIFTY EDWINI sat in the dining with Constance seated at the other end and facing me. We were both devouring our breakfast quietly when Clinton walked into the dining room."Good morning, alpha Edwin, " he bowed in front of me. I lifted my head from my breakfast to glare at him. What was so important was that he wanted to tell me that it couldn't wait until after breakfast. I waited eagerly to hear what he had to say to me. "What do you want?" I demanded in a harsh tone. "There is a letter for you from the red breeder pack," he said and handed a brown envelope to me. I wouldn't take the letter, nor even try to open it during breakfast if it was from someone else. But since I heard red breeder pack, then it must be from River. A smirk appeared on my face, as I took the letter from Clinton's hand. He was lucky that his coming to interrupt my breakfast was worth it. I opened the letter and read it. I scoffed after reading and handed the letter back to Clinton. He read thro
CHAPTER FIFTY ONEELARAWhen I woke up and didn't see River in the room. I wasn't surprised. I was already used to waking up to an empty room and sleeping off while waiting for River. It was getting boring, but I decided not to bother my head about it. After dressing up for the day, I heard a knock on the door. When I went to open the door, I saw a maid standing behind the door. "Your nurse is here to check up on you," she informed me. I winced. I had completely forgotten about the fact that I still needed a nurse to feel better. It was frustrating. "Let her come in," I said to the maid. The nurse walked into the room and bowed in front of me in greeting. "I guess I'm stuck with this routine for days," I said. She laughed as we proceeded into the room for her to begin her check-up. She made me sit on the bed. She opened both my eyes, checked it, and nodded. Then, she used the stethoscope to check my heartbeat.The maids brought in my food, and after I finished eating, they supe
CHAPTER FIFTY-TWORIVERWhen Elara stood up and said she still had errands to run for my mom, I quickly frowned feinging sadness. I watched as she ran off and shut the door behind her. It was a funny sight to behold. I couldn't help it. I found myself laughing at her. I walked back to my chair to sit. The image of how Elara looked when she ran out flashed in my head again, causing me to smile. The door to my office opened, and I immediately wiped the smile off my face. I lifted my head to see Carla walking into my office. She closed the door behind her and sat on the chair in front of me."Greetings, Mom," I greeted her immediately when she settled on the seat. "How are you doing, son?" She asked me. I only nodded my head."You are aware of your father's golden jubilee, right?" She asked me. I furrowed my brow in confusion. I didn't quite get what she was talking about at first and needed clarification. She read my thoughts and cleared her throat, as she decided to explain furth
CHAPTER FIFTY-THREEELLAI paced around my room with my hands on my waist. I was bored. My room had become too big for me. I remembered the box that I collected from the delivery man. A smile appeared on my face immediately when I remembered the box. I walked to my wardrobe and opened the last drawer in it. I brought out the clothes that I placed in the box. Then, I brought the box out of the drawer and packed the clothes back in. "Here you go, baby!" I said, to the box as I carried it. I walked towards my bed and placed it on the bed, and then I sat beside it. I began to unseal the box. A smile appeared on my face when I opened the box and saw the vibrator lying in there. It was the exact purple color I ordered. The perfect 8.6 inches. Just the way I loved it. I grabbed the bottom of my top and was about to take it off when I heard a knock on the door. My heart skipped, and I immediately used my blanket to cover the vibrator. I cleared my throat, took in a deep breath, and walke
CHAPTER FIFTY-FOURELARAI heard a knock on my door and stood up abruptly as I began walking towards the door. I knew who was by the door. The only person I was expecting to see. When I opened the door, I let out a relieved sigh. I was right after all. The maid was standing by the door with a packet in her hand. I took the packet from her hand with a smile on my face. "Thank you so much," I said to her. She bowed and left the room while I closed the door and returned to my bed. I sat on the bed and unwrapped the packet to reveal a small sim lying in there. A smile curved out on my lips as I stared at the sim. I picked up the sim and placed it in the small phone I had purchased for this purpose. "Are you enjoying your life without your ex-wife? I hope her ghost hunts you for life."I read the text aloud as I typed it. I let out a giggle as I sent the text and received a confirmation SMS that it had been successfully sent. I could memorize Edwin's number even in my sleep. Up until
