Alex- Not with me

Author: Lovebug
last update Last Updated: 2025-02-21 11:00:18

Last night, I don’t know what came over me. Maybe it was the rain, the warmth of Liam’s presence, or the way he looked at me like I was the only person in the world. But for the first time, I let go of my reservations and showed him a side of me I usually kept hidden.

Now, staring at the note he left behind—See you next week. Be ready for the charity ball.

I couldn’t shake the feeling that Liam was up to something. Was he planning to show up and rescue me from Nathan?

The thought sent a rush of anticipation through me, but at the same time, it left me uneasy. Nathan had been relentless since last week, constantly finding ways to be around me—whether at the gym or the restaurant where I worked. At first, I thought it was a coincidence, but I wasn’t naive. He was trying to wear me down, to make me see him as an option.

I wasn’t going to lie—Nathan was a generous tipper. But money wasn

    The next morning, I set out for the address on the back of the picture. I had tossed and turned all night, my mind filled with questions about my past, my father, and the brother I never knew. Now, it was time for answers. Driving through the countryside, I eventually reached the location. To only realize that it was right in the middle of the land I had been trying to buy from Nathan. The irony of it all didn’t escape me. The very land I wanted for my waterpark and casino resort held ties to my bloodline. The entrance to the gated community was heavily guarded, with tall iron fences and security cameras at every angle. The guards, dressed in black tactical gear, looked more like mercenaries than simple security personnel. One of them approached my car, peering through the tinted window with a scrutinizing glare. “State your business.” I kept my expression neut

  • Secret Infatuation    Liam- Truth behind my existence

    “When I met your mother, I was already bound to my pack’s laws,” he began. “Our kind, Liam, we don’t just marry who we want. We don’t love freely without consequences. Wolves are bound by rules and traditions that go back centuries. And one of the biggest laws of all?” He met my gaze, his golden-hazel eyes burning with something unreadable. “We don’t mate with humans; however, your mother was my fated mate.” I tensed, my grip on the glass tightening. “So, what? You knew that and still pursued her?” He nodded. “I did. Because I was selfish. Because I thought I could have it all. Your mother was unlike anyone I’d ever met. Strong, beautiful, intelligent. She challenged me in ways no wolf ever could. I loved her, Liam.” “Then why did you treat her like she was less than you? Like she was property?” Pain

  • Secret Infatuation    Liam- Nathan Cross was my brother

    The resemblance had always been there, but I had never thought much of it. Nathan—Caleb—had has always been an enigma, a powerful force that moved through the city with precision and dominance. I had spent years at odds with him, clashing over land, business, and influence. Now, knowing he was my brother? It changed everything. I didn’t know how to process it, but I also didn’t have the energy to fight the storm brewing in my mind. Marcus, sensing my inner turmoil, invited me to stay the night. “Let everything settle,” he said, pouring me another glass of whiskey. “Tomorrow, I’ll show you the pack. I want you to understand what you’re part of.” I wasn’t sure what I was feeling. Was it anger, resentment, or maybe even curiosity, but I agreed. The next morning, I woke up to the sound of birds chir

    I decided to stay in the pack’s territory for a few more days, immersing myself in a world I had never been a part of yet was undeniably connected to. Walking through the village nestled within the dense forest, where homes blended seamlessly into nature, built from stone and wood, reinforced with the strength of a pack united. Despite my initial reservations, I saw how deeply the people respected Marcus. Wolves of all ages greeted him with deference, their gazes full of admiration. Elders approached to share stories of battles fought alongside my father, of victories that ensured their survival. Children peeked out from behind their mothers’ skirts, their eyes filled with innocent curiosity as they sensed something different about him.

    Dragging both Liam and Olivia into the hotel suite had been a struggle, but adrenaline had pushed me forward. My heart pounded while I maneuvered them onto the bed and chair, my mind racing to figure out what had happened. One minute, they were fine; laughing, drinking, and blending seamlessly into the charity event. The next, both of them were barely able to stand, their limbs heavy, their eyes unfocused. It didn’t make sense. Thank the Goddess for Liam’s assistant. They had stepped in without hesitation, helping me get them out of there before things got worse. Now, sitting at Liam’s bedside, I watched him carefully. His breathing was steady, but his body still looked tense, like he was caught between wakefulness and unconsciousness. Olivia, across the room, stirred slightly, her fi

    I could feel Emma’s heated stare burning into me, her fingers gripping the steering wheel tighter than necessary while we drove in silence. Just say it already, Emma. “You’re not gonna talk?” she finally snapped, her voice sharp with frustration. “Fine, I’ll do it for you.” I swallowed hard, already bracing myself. “Is he the reason you dropped everything and moved three states away?” she demanded. “Where you didn’t know anyone? Where you didn’t even have a pot to piss in? Was it because of him?” Her voice trembled on the last word, anger barely concealing the pain beneath it. I opened my mouth, but nothing came out. Because everything she said was true. My silence was her answer. The car was too quiet, save for the occasional sound of the road beneath us. And then, like a dam breaking, tears bega

  • Secret Infatuation    Liam- Silence Speaks Louder than Words

    Damn it. Why was it so hard to just tell Alex the truth? He had asked me point-blank, and all I had to do was say it. Nathan Cross is my brother. But the words never came out. Instead, I stood there like an idiot, choking on my own damn secrets, and watched him walk away. And when he walked away this time, he wasn’t just angry. He was done. The second the door slammed shut, I bolted. I ran down the hallway, through the lobby, and straight out onto the quiet, empty streets, searching for any sign of him. But Alex was gone. The night air was cold, thick with the scent of rain, and the eerie silence of the city at this hour only made the weight in my chest worse. He was just gone. I exhaled sharply, dragging a hand down my face. His whole mood had shifted after tal

    The next morning, I went back to the gym as usual, half-hoping—no, expecting—to find Alex there. I needed to talk to him. To explain. To fix the damage before it was too late. But when I walked in, Brandon was standing by the weights instead. Not Alex. Brandon gave me a polite nod. “Morning, Mr. Kane. Ready to get started?” I frowned, scanning the gym, my wolf restless beneath my skin. “Where’s Alex?” Brandon hesitated, adjusting the strap on his gloves before answering. “He… requested a leave of absence. Said there was a family emergency.” I stilled. A family emergency? Bullshit. It was too convenient. I clenched my jaw, inhaling deeply to steady myself. I knew Brandon wasn’t lying. He had no reason to; but Alex was. He was running. Again. And I had no intention of letting him slip away this time. I went through the motions of my workout, but my mind wasn’t in it. My body burned from the exertion, but it was nothing compared to the frustration clawing at my chest. As
