YARA’S POVThe car finally came to a stop and I watched the tinted glass slide down while Denver kept his head on my shoulder still. The driver looked back to announce we had arrived and I saw the surprise in his eyes when he saw Alpha Denver laying his head on my shoulder. Our eyes met and a brief moment of silence and realization passed through his eyes before he nodded and audibly cleared his throat.“We have arrived at the hotel alpha” he announced loudly and Alpha Denver finally pulled back and smiled at the man. I was surprised to see him smile at him because he always looked stern and unapproachable to his workers and I remembered what Freya said to me the previous night; maybe she was right. Maybe I was positively rubbing off on him.“Thank you,” Alpha Denver said to him before he let go of my hand that was still linked to his so we could get down from the car.“I’ll be here later on to take you to the hotel for the rehearsals alpha. Are you okay with that?” the driver asked
YARA’S POVI wore one of the dresses that Freya helped me pick and I looked at myself in the mirror to be sure I looked good enough for the rehearsals we were heading to. It was an emerald green dress that hugged my figure and stopped exactly at my ankle with a split from my knee downward and I felt it was perfect.I smiled at my reflection in satisfaction before I walked out of the bathroom and Alpha Denver already was dressed up too. He was in a pair of black jean trousers that hugged his calves and a cashmere long-sleeved shirt. He was brushing through his hair when he saw me watching him through the mirror before him and our eyes stayed locked through the mirror. Then he returned the brush and turned around to face me. I didn’t take my eyes off him this time as he walked toward me and I watched him run his eyes over me.“The last time I saw you in a dress was the night of the mission to get my bike back and you don’t want to know what I had running through my mind,” he said and
LUNA AMANDA’S POVThe bar wasn’t a safe place to get indulged in anything with Cillian. Anyone could walk in and see us and it was going to be catastrophic so I quickly pulled away from the kiss he initiated and he looked confused as he stared at me. Then he took a few steps back from me and held his hands up. “I’m sorry. I should have known it would be a mistake. I’m just going to walk away like this never happened then” he began and I laughed.“I never said I regret it. I only stopped kissing you because anyone could walk in here and see us,” I said to him and he looked both surprised and relieved to hear that from me. He sighed and smiled brightly while displaying his teeth.“That’s a relief then. I thought you were beginning to have second thoughts” he replied and I shook my head.Then I looked down and the broken glasses were still scattered everywhere. I looked back at him and he was following my gaze too.“Aren’t you going to clear this mess like you said you would?” I asked h
YARA’S POVMorning came and I grunted tiredly in bed before I opened my eyes and turned to look at Alpha Denver over where he lay on the other side of the bed since I had a pillow wall mounted between us.It was the first time we were sharing a bed but I wasn’t bothered or nervous about it because of the pillows I arranged to stop him from getting naughty. I was way too focused on getting back at him for what he did to me in the elevator to let any anxiety about sharing a bed with him get to me.I noticed he wasn’t on the bed with me after looking and I sat up immediately while wondering where he could be. Then I quickly reached for the bedside clock to see what time it was and it was already past 10 am. My eyes bulged when I saw the time and I quickly got down from the bed.“Shit, shit, shit! I’m late” I kept on whispering under my breath as I rushed toward the bathroom to have my bath, not caring to know where alpha Denver was or what he was up to anymore.I got into the bathroom and
YARA’S POVThe preparation finally came to an end and I wore the dress Alpha Denver got for me. It was a sleeveless purple stoned dress and the silky material of the dress fell softly on my skin down to my toes. I had my hair curled into waves and it fell down my back busily with some strands resting on my chest to make the curvy neckline of the dress more obvious. I wore the pair of heels he got for me too as the last thing to do before I would be fully ready and one of Lydia’s assistants helped me up from the chair I sat on before the second assistant pulled a full-length mirror to stand before me and I looked at my reflection. I gasped because it was almost impossible to recognize who I was.I was completely different and it was almost convincing that I was just another version of myself from another universe or dimension. I took another look as I ran my hands delicately over my dress and a wide happy smile flashed on my face before I could think of it and that showed just how muc
ALPHA DENVER’S POVTo say I was furious would be an understatement. I felt so many stages of fear go through me the moment I saw the chandelier fall toward Yara and for a moment, it was like I couldn’t breathe because I couldn’t even imagine a life without her in it. I would have stood frozen on the stage too… but seeing her there, with so much fear on her face as she stared at the chandelier coming toward her, I knew I had to save her because I wasn’t ready to lose her. I couldn’t afford to lose the first person that made me feel wanted.Then I saw the person who caused it and the fury in me intensified. I had to know who was behind that attempt to kill her and as much as I wanted to stay with her and make sure she was okay, I also wanted to catch the culprit so badly and make him pay. So I ran after him and he went through the backdoor of the hotel kitchen.I didn’t quit and even though my lungs felt like they were about to burst through my ribs, I kept on going after him and soon,
ALPHA DENVER’S POVWe arrived at the hotel and I took her straight to the penthouse. She was still wordless… just the same way she was throughout the drive back to the hotel and I was getting even more worried about her.I sat her down on a couch in the living room before I got her a glass of water, hoping it would help her calm down and she caught my hand by the wrist just as I was about to walk away.“Where are you going?” she finally spoke when I looked at her and to say I was relieved would be an understatement. I was elated to know she was alright on hearing her say something.“To get you a glass of water baby,” I said to her and she turned my hand to look at the knuckles. She saw the dry blood on my hand like she was noticing it for the first time and she looked at me again.“Did you kill him?” she asked me and I knew she was referring to the masked man that tried to kill her.I swallowed before I spoke and I wondered what she would say with the answer I was going to give. I kne
YARA’S POVAlpha Denver woke up before I did the next day and just as he predicted, I was sore. The first pain shot through my legs when I tried to get down from the bed so I could have my bath and I groaned out loud in pain since it wasn’t expected. I heard his footsteps as he rushed into the room with worry in his eyes and I clutched the blanket tighter to my chest when I saw him because I was still naked and shy about what we did together the previous night.“Are you okay, Yara? I heard you yell from the living room and came to check on you” he asked as he knelt before me and I pushed my hair back before I nodded to let him know I was fine but he didn’t look like he was buying it. The uneasiness was evident on my face so I decided to just tell the truth to him. Bending my head to avoid his eyes as my face burned, I let it out.“I’m… I’m sore and it’s hard to get up on my own” I said and when he didn’t say anything, I looked back at him and he was smiling. I eyed him when I saw he l
