The barbecue party was great, and Hannah’s cousins, uncle, and Aunt left earlier. Since her cousins' wives had work by tomorrow, Hannah was driving Reid’s pickup truck on the way to the manor so her beloved could rest. But he was wide awake, and so was their bodyguard at the back. She glanced at Trey in the back seat trying to chill but his shoulders were tense. “Guys, why are you so stressed?” She asked. The two looked hilarious to her.“Babe, keep your eyes on the road,” Reid said as she casually drove. “Okay, I am.” She glanced at the map to check if they were driving in the correct direction. “Babe, turn to the left,” Trey said. “I mean, Hannah.” Reid glared at him as Hannah laughed slowly pressed the signal light and turned to the left. “That’s it.” Reid nodded. Hannah quickly stepped on the break as they nearly threw out of the car. A man just jumped out of nowhere carrying a woman. “What the fuck!” Trey exclaimed.Reid reached Hannah as the man was about to run off but
Eloisa was singing softly to the music that was being played. That’s right. Reagan gave her a speaker, a television, and an MP3 with unlimited music. She stopped when she heard another crying and it sounded like Ivan. She smirked as she headed out… somehow, she could get out of her room but not in the dungeon. She had that much freedom.“Oh, wow.” Eloisa smiled. “Look at you… Losing all your nails.” She giggled. “Didn’t you do that to Hannah?” Ivan snarled at her. She whistled as she glanced at the man who collected the nails. Then, she checked each cell as her eyes turned to the man whom she couldn’t forget. He was laughing while thrusting on her after they drugged her so she wouldn’t control them. He did nasty things to her. “I want you to die… really. But not now…” Eloisa said as she started humming the song in her head. “Oh, by the way.” She stopped one of the workers. The tall guy who looked like Reagan. “Where’s Reagan?” The guy tilted his head at her. “He’s off to rescue H
Hannah’s eyes dilated with those sparkles. She felt a good shiver. Her heart skipped a beat. Her eyes met Ian Marquiss. She had been into him since 6th Grade and throughout high school. She spied on him and loved him. Now, it was her chance. She’s his real mate! “Ian,” She called. She’s been in love with him ever since they were in 6th Grade. He was on and off with his girlfriend Valerie but they finally had a chance at 7th Grade. However, everything went downhill when it was just a bet. It was the most painful betrayal she had ever had. Not just by the man she loved, but also by the friends she was with. A hopeful look in his eyes when Ian looked at her with the same sparkle. But then, his eyes turned into a glare. He looked at her from head to toe. She knew instantly… Those eyes reveal his true emotions. Right. He was already taken. He had this perfect mate and she’s just nothing. Ian pulled his arm as she was taken aback further. Reality hits her. How can she feel this wh
“Hannah!” Her friends called. She tried to calm down. “Hannah!” She sniffled and wiped off her tears which continuously flowed. She stood weakly. Half of her soul was dead from the rejection and even now, her wolf wasn’t even there to help her. Or she was just hoping to have a wolf although she knew that deep inside, she won’t be like them. A werewolf shifter. But she knew that she'd be even more in pain if she had a wolf. At least it will be just the heart to bear all of the pain. “You shouldn’t go there looking like a mess.” A tall man probably at her age or probably older, someone chubby but with a handsome voice said. He handed out a towel. “Don’t worry, I haven’t used it. Free to use it.” She hesitated as she looked up at his puffy face. He’s cute. Someone who might like her but somehow, with her broken heart, she knew that she was just vulnerable. “Thank you.” She mumbled in a hoarse voice. He sighed and turned back and she wiped her tears and snot. “I’ll wash this and gi
Hannah looked at the mirror as she frowned at her face. Pimples break out. She tried to cover it up. To at least look presentable. But then, she remembered well how stressed she’s been lately. Paying rent, trying to even send back money to her family. Eating too much sugar.She exhaled as she just put the ointment on after cleaning up her face. She can’t wear makeup or any foundation. She doesn't even know how to put makeup on. She prepared now and put a light lipstick on. Then, she headed out and sat down in front of her cubicle desk and put her headset on to prepare for the online meeting. “By tomorrow’s meeting, we will be greeting the General manager.” Her boss, Mr. Fabian Marshal said. She’s just a lowly clerk but there will be other things going on. Her boss was already giving her a hard time yet he’s very supportive and he’s a great leader. “Hannah, prepare for everything. Our New General Manager, Boss Reid will be very strict.” “On it, sir.” She said as she was making sure
Wondering how that man’s other half felt after he marked his mate, made him furious. She’s fragile. She’s kind… He clenched his fist as he also felt that pain in her chest but he remained like a stone. The disappointment and hurtful words she said were forever printed in his head. “Alpha, are you well?” His Aide asked as he placed the medicine in front of him. “Please drink this. Last night, did it fade a little bit?” “It did.” He smiled. “I need another bottle for this.” “Yes, sir.” He fixed himself up with a nice smart casual suit. Then, he headed out to his car. It was just a few blocks from his penthouse, but he needed to use a car since it was scorching hot outside. He stopped upon seeing the working-hard girl. Petite, a little curvy and she’s walking briskly with her earphones on while holding a lot of paper bags from takeout. He quickly got out of his car when it stopped traffic. Then, he took his briefcase. “Sir…” “I’ll get off here.” He said as he messed his hair a bi
RJ was friendly. But her heart was at stake. She can’t fall in love just because she’s hurt and lonely. She can’t fall for that handsome man at all. She has no confidence in herself or love. Because she knew, it would only give her pain. The disappointment in their eyes was already too much to bear and rejection was already killing her. What more if she falls in love and learns that she was just a second choice?She chatted with the team as she had already taken their orders and her friend who was also on their team was busy with calls. She went back to RJ’s office and told him what they ordered and he moved closer to her as somehow, his sexy scent caught her. She wanted to move away to get away from temptation and dirty thoughts of him. He had his arms crossed while nodding. “You can now check it out.” He said as she checked it out and handed it to him. “Wait, what’s your order?” He asked with furrowed brows. She thought for a while. “I forgot about that…” He frowned. “Oh, your
She had called out the team for lunch and some were still finishing things up. Some probably were shy enough to dine with their big boss. She went to the bathroom with her kit and went directly to the cubicle. She threw up unexpectedly as she felt dizzy. She sat on the clean floor and reached her chest. She exhaled as she stayed for a while and she finally flushed the toilet and cleaned the toilet seat. She went to the sink and washed her mouth and face. She wiped her face clean as she rummaged through it and put a moisturizer on. Once she’s settled, she heads to her chair and puts her purse in her bag. “Hannah,” Reid called. “Everyone is waiting.” “Oh, sorry.” She said as she went with Reid to the conference room. They seemed to be all having fun. “Hannah, I got you a seat,” Rose called as she approached her and they all settled down. Somehow, she could feel RJ’s gaze at her as they thanked their boss for the treat. “Let’s have a meeting this afternoon, Hannah can you set up fo
