YARA’S POVI was already tipsy once I was halfway through my second bottle and I was already swaying from side to side, trying to stay awake and finish the rest of the drink because the air was cool and the atmosphere felt nice. I didn’t want to return to my room yet. Alpha Denver hadn’t said a word to me yet ever since we started drinking and at first, the silence felt uncomfortable for me but with time, I didn’t mind anymore and I felt more relaxed. I was guessing it would be because of the drink.“So tell me, Yara. how did you meet your queen and why did she take you in?" Alpha Denver asked me and I turned to him. He had his eyes fixed on me as he leaned his chin on his hand and I mirrored his pose with a glint of mischief in my eyes.“Why do you suddenly want to know about me?” I asked him and he shrugged.“I don’t know. Probably to just get to know and understand you more” he replied and I sighed.I changed position and I almost fell forward but he was quick to grab me from my s
ALPHA DENVER’S POVI didn’t know what was happening to me as I began to drink with Yara outside the gym. I was the one who offered that we drink before we go to bed because strangely, I was hoping drinking together would make her less grumpy since she seemed like she was in a bad mood. I didn’t know why I noticed or why I even cared but I felt like I was the reason why she seemed so moody and I wanted to help. I really didn’t know why but I found myself wanting to. And so I did.One drink into the second and I felt my defenses slowly chipping away. I was still the one who started the conversation about wanting to know each other and when she told me all that I wanted to know about herself, probably more than what I even expected, I felt like I had to tell her mine too and when she asked, I felt seen. I hated feeling that way but it felt different with Yara, I liked that she asked me too and wanted to know about me. I liked that she didn’t see me as just the tyrant alpha who doesn’t t
YARA’S POVI walked fast back to my room and all I saw was red. I was fuming and I could fling anything at anyone that would attempt to speak to me at that moment.Freya had just been pretending. She was never genuine with how she was so friendly with me and cared for me. She made me think she was a friend. The only friend I had in this place but she was just working for Alpha Denver and was only putting up an act for me to believe in. I couldn’t believe I fell right into that and I was just finding out after so many months when all the time, I talked and laughed with Freya, she didn’t mean any of it. It was all a facade.I bumped into a maid and the basket she held fell to the floor. Clean towels poured out of the basket and they rolled away. I felt sorry and wanted to make it right so I began to pick them up one by one and when I was done, I apologized to her and was about to leave when I saw Freya standing before me and her face was filled with the want to be listened to. But I did
YARA’S POVI was ready to leave for the company along with Alpha Denver and Cillian as usual and I chose to not have breakfast that morning because I wasn’t in the mood to. I went downstairs and everyone was ready… including the guards that always followed closely behind Alpha Denver’s car all the time in a separate car of their own for security. I walked down the stairs that led to the entrance of the palace and I stopped right at the foot of the stairs when my eyes fell on Alpha Denver and I saw he was watching me too. He looked like he was waiting for me to get into the car with him. Well, that wasn’t happening. I tore my gaze from him and I walked towards the car with the guards. They all fell silent once they saw me and I forced a smile on my face because they were my only chance of going to the company without getting in the same car with Alpha Denver. I really didn’t want to be in such an enclosed space with him.“Good morning guys. You still got space for one in your car?”
YARA’S POV“You’re going to help by being a distraction for me. You’ll try to divert the new owner’s attention while I take the key to the bike and I’ll let you know once I’m done retrieving the bike too” his words kept on ringing in my head as we drove to the company. And even after we arrived at the company and we got down from the car, it still played in my head nonstop.Alpha Denver was telling me to be a distraction for him to retrieve his bike from its new owner and I was no novice, I knew exactly what he was talking about and I certainly knew that I couldn’t do it. I had never tried that and I was sure that I wouldn’t be able to go through with it.I couldn’t even wear a dress and look pretty to save my life so why did he think I would be able to do it for him? A man that I so dearly wanted to kill for wiping my family off the face of this realm.I scoffed to myself as I sat in his office on the desk that had already been assembled in his office for me. I could feel his eyes se
ALPHA DENVER’S POVThe first thing I did once we got to the palace and got out of the car was to let Yara know that we were only having a light dinner due to the plan we had to see through later that night and I could still remember the frown on her face when I told her that and how she grudgingly nodded, telling me she understood before she walked into the palace, leaving me behind.Then I went into the palace after her and another thing I had in mind to do was get a stylist to choose a dress for her because I knew Yara. she was definitely going to wear pants to follow me if she could. I had never seen her in a dress for the past four months since she joined me in my pack so it was very predictable that she would wear a pair of pants and braid her hair into a single one like she always did with a bare face but still always managed to look good.I chuckled myself once I had that thought and a smile stayed stuck to my face while I chose for myself, a suit to wear to the club so I cou
ALPHA DENVER’S POV“Say something and stop gaping at me like I just got bathed with mud, would you? I know I look ridiculous. Your face says it all” she mumbled and grumbled while she kept on fixing the dress over and over with an uncomfortable look on her face. I quickly shook my head and walked closer to her. Then I tucked her hair behind her ear to fix the listening device and I could feel her stiffening beneath my touch when my finger brushed the tip of her ear.“You don’t look ridiculous Yara. you look too good for someone who is always in sweatpants and trust me, that Lycan prince wouldn’t get his eyes off you” I said to her and I could hear her drag in a sharp breath before she released it through her mouth and I watched closely, how her lips contracted so closely together to form an ‘o’ shape while she breathed out. She wore purple lipstick and I wondered if it was the kind that tasted like candy. “You really think so? I don’t want this mission to flop” she said to me, her ey
ALPHA DENVER’S POVStraightening my jacket, I made my way to the club’s entrance and the guards turned to face me immediately. With a straight face, I took off my jacket and folded up the sleeve of my shirt then I showed them a tattoo on my arm; the symbol of my pack and they recognized me as the alpha immediately. With a bow of their heads each, they made way for me to go into the club and I smirked.“Welcome to Club De Nuit, alpha Denver of the SOUTH VALLEY pack” one of the guards greeted me and I nodded at him subtly before I walked into the club. I eyed the crowd closely as I walked through the crowd to find Yara as fast as I could but it seemed like she had disappeared into thin air or something.“Yara, where are you?” I whispered into the listening device as I kept on walking and I could hear her breathing through the device still stuck in my ear. I knew she couldn’t speak but I trusted her to lead me to her one way or the other.I was still walking, trying to find her when I d
