Chapter 16

Veronica's POV

The shock kept me from saying anything, even as she opened her mouth to talk.

" Did you see that Monica dear? She is trying to poison me! I don't know what it is about her that she finds so special. I would make sure Lloyd fires her. She is so rude!" She said, going on and on in a bid to justify her actions.

I was angry, my fingertips already cracking from the amount of pressure I placed on them as I dug into my palm.

" That is not fair! Stop that!" Cade yelled at her.

" You rotten child! Shut your stupid mouth or I would shut it for you" she yelled back.

" You won't dare!" Cade said.

I just stood there, watching both of them banter until she got up, heading towards where cade stood firmly and raised her hands.

" And what is going on here?" The voice of alpha Lloyd boomed, causing everyone to jump, startled.

Cade ran to meet him, his eyes tearing up.

" Your new girlfriend was about to hit me" he said.

Alpha Lloyd's eyes formed into sti

    Chapter 17Veronica's POV The words died in my throat as I looked at his shirtless chest, wondering just how he was able to take his shirt off so fast.Those abs, perfectly sculpted like they were owned by Adonis. I could almost feel how rock hard they would be, the temptation of running my hands along the lines of his veins proving too strong to resist.I traced his veins, looking from his sculpted abs, up to his beautiful neck and then his chiseled jaw, and finally his face, that face that was now set in a scowl as he looked at me." Looking for something or you just wanted to stare?" He asked.My mouth suddenly felt dry again as I cleared my throat. I hated this feeling. This feeling that made me feel like I was a little teenage girl, giggling at her boy crush." No I'm sorry...I um...I wanted to...I wanted to ask if you were being serious?" I said, finally managing to get the words out after what felt like an internal struggle.He raised his brows at me." Did I say anything that

And who is this beauty?" He asked, winking at me, making my cheeks go a shade brighter.I saw alpha Lloyd give him a side glance, one that could almost be mistaken for a glare if I did not know the kind of person he was." She is cade's nanny and my date to the gala" he answered before I could talk, almost as though he did not want me communicating with him.He got into the car, his eyes glinting." Well my lady you look ravishing and there is no one more fit to accompany such a dreadful alpha to the meeting" he said.I stared at him in surprise. The surprise of just how playful he seemed to address alpha Lloyd, as though he was some sort of kid." I am azriel, alpha Lloyd's beta and probably t

    Chapter 19Veronica's POV I felt my throat go numb as I looked at him, wondering if this was perhaps a joke or if he was trying to test me, perhaps to see my reaction." I take it that it is not that serious?" He said again and that was when I knew he was being serious." I don't want anything to do with them again "I muttered, my voice small.He probably thought I was weak, perhaps wondering why I did not want to take back something that was rightfully mine, but I knew I could not do it again.I could not face her and pretend like I was fine, I could not stand anywhere near all of them.I was better off this way..The next store we walked into was more reserved than the first.The excitement of going on a shopping spree was now reserved and even though I tried to look enthusiastic, all I really wanted to do was go into my room and curl up into a ball and cry." We have new arrivals for the miss. what are you looking for in particular?" The woman asked when we arrived." Dinner gown

    Chapter 19Alpha Lloyd's POVI could not understand her. From the very first time I saw her, I knew I did not want anything to do with the demons she was fighting. I wanted her to take care of my son and that alone.But somehow, I found myself picking up my phone that night to call Azriel, my hands tapping the mahogany wood as I waited for him to pick up." I knew you would call. So what are we doing?" He asked.I could almost imagine the smirk on his face as he said that, I hated when he knew what went through my head and I also hated the fact that he did not fail to show that he knew it too." Well then, I guess this would be a short call since you already know why I'm calling. I want those designs taken down. Whoever works for the company or sponsors the company, I also want them backing down. Don't go around spreading my name like it's a Bible verse. All I want you to do, must be done without her knowing who did it. Do you understand?" I asked him." Way ahead of you boss. Don't

    Chapter 21Veronica's POV The fact that he was staring at me with eyes wide open made me know he had the same thought in his mind as me.It was the first time I saw a remote emotion from him that was not anger or boredom." I did not come all this way for this. Get me another room right this instant" he said.Like all rich men, he has a fragile ego, and I could tell his ego was badly hurt right now as he looked at the woman who seemed to not care about his yelling." I would advise you to keep calm sir as this is a business area. I apologize deeply for the inconvenience. I would have contacted nearby hotels for you but hotels here don't accept bookings from other hotels when it's past seven. Please bear with us for at least this night and I can promise you that I will have another room ready for you tomorrow morning" she said.He wanted to talk, perhaps to argue again but I hated the attention that he was beginning to draw to us, so for the first time, I decided to try my best to cal

    Chapter 22Veronica's POV I had seen him shirtless so somehow, I thought I would be prepared to see him shirtless again but nothing could prepare me for this.I stared at him for what felt like hours, looking at his perfectly sculpted muscles, the water dripping down from it slowly, his hair still wet from his trip to the shower as he dried his hair with a towel." If you keep staring at me like that I would be forced to kick you out of the room. Perhaps you would sleep at the bar or something" he said.I swallowed heavily, my throat drying up as I looked away. What was wrong with me? He was just a man with a perfectly sculpted body. I have seen enough in my life.I did not have to become so attached to looking at it. Even though it was a struggle, I managed to pull my eyes away from his body, choosing to focus instead on the balcony that was now letting in fresh air." You can go use the shower. I would order something to eat. Do you need anything?" He asked.I shook my head even th

    Chapter 23Alpha Lloyd's POV I smirked at her. This side of her was a part that I had never seen, a part that intrigued me.I never knew she could talk this much, let alone stand up to me.Having her cornered next to the wall, her body flush against mine was something I lived for." I'm sorry" she managed to whisper." Do you think that Is enough to take back what you just said?" I asked her.I was enjoying tormenting her a lot more than was necessary. I could not lie, it was fun." I did not mean to offend you please" she said.I sighed internally. I preferred that side of her that was a vixen. Now she was just back to being plain boring.I walked away from her." I did not mean to question your integrity too" I said to her, taking my seat back on the bed.She seemed more relaxed now as she walked back to the couch." Won't you eat?" I asked her, gesturing to the plate on the table. " I did not ask for anything" she said, her voice small." Well you flew with me and I can basically

    Chapter 23Veronica's POV I woke up to the sun shining on my face, the cold grasp of the room finally hitting me.The bed was soft and plush underneath me, seemingly as though it did not want me to get up, trying its best to keep me in its circle for as long as was needed.Wait a minute. Bed?I opened my eyes swiftly, nearly jumping out of the bed as I felt the plush duvet underneath me" It's good to see that you are awake. Order breakfast, I have somewhere to go today" he said.He was fully dressed, his hard muscles hidden beneath a tight shirt that still made me want to run my tongue through him.I cleared my throat, getting up as I went to grab my towel." Did we..." I was beginning to say but he turned to look at me with a smirk. He knew where I was headed. I could see it in his eyes." You don't have to worry about that. We did not sleep on the bed together. I told you to sleep on it because I would be working all night but of course you refused to listen." He said, talking to

    Chapter 63Veronica's POV The kiss was sweet and ravenous, every inch of his mouth closing in on mine as though he could not get enough, could feel me enough.I was stunned, the words I could see forming on the top of my tongue instantly dissipating as I struggled to catch my breath, struggled to make whatever this was make sense to me." What is going on here?" A voice thundered from the other end of the hallway and due to reflexes, I pushed alpha llyod off of me, my face coated in shame and anguish as my eyes fell on alpha callum.He stood there, eyes holding anger and betrayal, his face contorted in a mix of hurt and surprise." Am I interrupting something?" He said, his voice slowly breaking as he now turned his eyes towards alpha llyod who was smirking as though it was the best thing he had ever done." Yes" alpha llyod answered and at that point, I finally found my voice." No! Please callum let me..." I was beginning to say but he was already nodding his head, muttering some i

    Chapter 62Veronica's POV At first, I wanted to laugh it off, thinking it was some sort of joke. There was no how she was into women when she looked that beautiful.But her face was set in a firm line, whatever trace of joke I thought she would have on her face nowhere to be found." But you are in a date with alpha llyod..." I said, as though to remind her the main reason why she was here.She scratched the back of her neck tiredly." Well I know. The thing is, my parents seem to think being gay is something that can be solved by a man. So they are trying to make us spend more time together.But I don't even see him as a person not to talk more of a potential husband material. I'm telling you this so you can be more comfortable around me and stop thinking he is cheating on you" she said.I sighed." I don't feel that way about him" I said again but she just waved me off." If that is what you want to force yourself to believe then do be it. I just want you to know that I have been a

    Chapter 61Veronica's POV Of all the things that happened in that plane ride and since the time we got to China, this was the worst.Just like my first business trip to France with alpha llyod, I also had to share a room with alpha callum. And even though I wanted to believe that things like this were mere coincidence, I could not bring myself to." What do you mean by there is a mix up in the rooms?" Alpha llyod asked even though his own room was already checked and he held a key in his hands." It's none of your business. You can be on your way and we will settle this between ourselves" alpha callum said, his own voice holding a promise of war should alpha llyod do otherwise.But as always, alpha llyod did not notice this slight change in tone or maybe he was not just bothered and pressed further." It's my business as long as she works for me. I will not let you take advantage of her like that" he said." It was a simple booking mistake." He said, trying to defend himself.Again,

    Chapter 60Callum's POVI did not know what it was about her but I knew I liked her. Not enough to foil my plan of ruin my chances of getting back at her but it was enough to try to make sure she was not too hurt in the process.I had donned on black shades and a hat as I sat at that bar,waiting for her to show up.Every minute that ticked made me feel like this was fruitless, this was not going to work out. But with every doubt I held, I renewed my vigour with the anger of what alpha llyod did to me.How he took what was mine away from me." I never thought you would ask to see me" her voice finally came, making me to sit straight and look at her.Of course. There she was.Alpha llyod's little bitch." I heard you are trying to get back at him for picking his maid over you" I said smugly as she sat down." You heard wrong. After you threatened me to stay away from him and not mess up with your plan, I did a quick background search on you and I must say, I'm impressed.A multi billion

    Chapter 59Veronica's POV Things got pretty weird after that. From the glares that both alphas exchanged down to the awkward smile that Morgan, alpha llyod's date exchanged with me." Sure. Since we have both our dates here, maybe we can each take a compartment of the jet" alpha callum said.This was some sort of ruse, or a very bad plan of getting me alone so we could have some space.But aloha llyod was quicker." Why would we do that? We all know each other don't we? We can all share the same compartment" he said." This is my private jet and I will not allow myself to be uncomfortable in it." Alpha callum said, his glare stronger now, a heated glare off going on between the both of them" Well don't flatter yourself. I have two private jets and you don't hear me bragging about it like a kid" alpha llyod said." Oh well look who has two private jets and is coming to beg to be on mine?" Alpha callum walked." Please! Both of you! There should not be arguments about this. Since we a

    Chapter 58Veronica's POV I had finally come to the conclusion that all alphas loved staying in extremely spacious houses even though they were the only ones living in it.Alpha callum's house was nothing short of impressive. From the blue and white home decor, drown to the velvety royal blue colours of the cushion and tables." Why stay in somewhere so big alone?" I asked as I looked around in awe, my eyes catching sight of a pool just outside the glass windows.He shrugged."I like having the option of sleeping wherever I like" he said.I could imagine just how scary it would be if I tried to consider such a living." Are you hungry? I can make something quickly for the both of us" he suggested.I shook my head." No I'm fine. I had dinner before leaving the house" I said.He nodded, standing awkwardly for a while before finally grabbing the bag and heading up the stairs.." Your room is directly next to mine so if you ever need anything you can always holler out" he said.I nodded

I did need to do this for my own mental stability. Alpha Lloyd was not the kind of man that would give me the peace I knew I needed." Please let's meet tomorrow at my place. You can sleep over and then we can leave first thing the next morning" he said.It sounded like a solid plan to me. Like someone who was effectively making plans with me." Sure we can do that. I will call you when I'm ready" I said to him, ending the call and turning around to look at the shocked face of alpha llyod." We should get going. Cade must be so bored sitting in the car alone and let's not forget that he will be running late" I said, turning to leave but his voice stopped me.So cold, so angry." What kind of games do

I should have not gone on the stupid date with him in the first place.He was such a fine man with his whole life put together. Of course women like that would be into him.Who knows if he loved her too? Different thoughts rampaged through my head as I switched on the lights, my back killing me. With each passing day that the baby grew larger in my stomach, I could not wait for the coveted months to come so I could get it out of me. Nearly four months now and my baby bump was still taking its precious time in becoming obvious.Not like I wanted it to be obvious.The apartment was just as I had left it. The lights switched off, coat in the hanger, callum..Wait. Callum?I whipped my head back quickly to face the couch, dread in my eyes as I stared at the nervous man sitting on my couch, just watching me.

Knowing that I had him on a leash was the one thing that made this mission easier.I planned to torment llyod until he begs for mercy. And I knew that if I took her out, he would be vulnerable and it would be the best time to strike." I planted the little gift next to his car, what now?" Greg asked, his voice having the same boring coat that it always did." We wait" I said sneakily, my eyes lighting up with mischief.He on the other hand did not seem too thrilled." Can't we just grab the girl now and get this over with? We are not a bunch of horny teenagers trying to prank someone" he said.I suppressed an eye roll as I turned to look at him finally, his brown eyes once agai
