Deandra povI stretched my hand on the bed struggling to reach my phone, i was too tired to get up from the bed, so I kept stretching till I finally got my phone. “Got ya.” I whistlered and turned on the phone. I opened my eyes wider than normal when I realized I was already late for work. “Oh my goodness, how did I forget I have to go to work.” I got up from the bed immediately and rushed into the shower, I was having so much fun last night forgetting that I am resuming work today. While in the bathroom I remembered a clip of what happened last night, I placed my hand on my lips gently as i recollected locking lips with Ryder. “That was not a dream?” I asked myself and hurried my bath. When I was done bathing I dressed up immediately, and a memory flashed back from last night. I remembered hugging him really tight. “What has come over me?” I asked myself while scattering my hair frustrated, I can’t believe I did all that last night, how do I face him today? I was done dressing a
Writer’s povAndra didn’t know how to explain it to Aliya so she just thought there was no need telling her about it.“You are obviously avoiding him, it’s fine if you don’t want to talk about it but you should call him, he looked really worried.” Aliya said to me while we were at the restaurant.I don’t even know what to say to him, I just keep remembering the kiss we shared which is why I’m too shy to speak to him right now.“We shouldn’t have gone out to celebrate last night.” I muttered.“What did you say?” Aliya asked thinking I was talking to her.“Never mind.” I replied to her and placed my hand on my chin while in deep thought. I don’t know how Ryder is feeling about it and ignoring him might make him feel worse.After lunch I headed back to the office with Aliya, I was still feeling bad, when I got to my desk I picked my phone to check if he has called and he was still yet to call.“Is he upset?” I asked myself and dropped the phone back on the desk.I was not able to concent
Alpha Daniel pov“Mom!” I screamed at the top of my voice when I couldn’t find the papers I left on the center table a few minutes ago.“When will you learn that I’m your mother and stop yelling my name like I’m your child!” My mother yelled back angrily. I was not interested in hearing what she has to say, what matters to me right now is my file.“Mom, you were here with me a few minutes ago when I left those papers here, did you take them?” I asked her calmly while staring at her face to see her reaction.Yolanda did not react like she took the papers with her which got me a little scared.“I didn’t take anything Daniel.” She replied to me reluctantly and walked away. I stood there like a statue looking confused, how did the paper go missing, or did I drop it somewhere else? I placed my hand on my head frustrated as I looked around the house.“Good morning Alpha Daniel.” Hope greeted me with a smile on her face as she walked down the stairs, I was not in the mood for that. All I nee
Alpha Daniel povNone of them were responding to me even after raising my voice several times.“Can someone say something?” I asked angrily. Yolanda stood up from the couch and walked closer to me, she held my hand trying to control me from doing something stupid because she knows me better than anyone and she could already tell I was losing my patience.“You can go sit down, I will take care of them.” My mother said to me and I decided to listen.I can’t believe a stranger walked into the pack house and none of them noticed, it has to be someone that knows the pack house very well. I looked around the house and checked if there’s a place anyone can come in without being noticed, how did the person know what the file contains?I placed my hand on my head while my mom was talking to the workers. They were not saying anything impressive so she had to dismiss them.“Camilla, did you see the person’s face?” Yolanda asked. Camilla looked like she was struggling to remember what the person
Deandra povI couldn’t stop pacing around the room when Ryder left my house, I can’t believe he wants me to pretend to be his wife.“What am I supposed to do when I get there?” I asked myself and put my finger in my mouth anxiously, this is a very tough task for me even though I was married once, it’s tough and kind of traumatizing to me.“I don’t think I can do this.” I sat on the bed tiredly and sighed. Track back to the first time Alpha Daniel introduced me to his friends, I was so happy that day that my heart was about to fly out from my chest.My bright smile that day was out of the world. It was his birthday, which is his special day. He wanted me to meet his friends because he has made up his mind to be with me for the rest of his life. Well, that’s what I thought.I heaved a sigh and laid on the bed as bittersweet memories rushed back. I can’t believe he fell out of love.“I should be practicing.” I jumped up from the bed and continued pacing around, while thinking of what to
Writer’s povAndra was still not sure if asking him the question was the right thing to do because she didn’t want to make him think she was doubting him.“The night we went out to celebrate you said something that made me curious.” Andra stared at his face to see if he was finding her words offensive then she would know when to stop.“What is it that I said that made you curious?” Ryder asked Andra. Andra suddenly became quiet. She didn’t know how to reply in a way that will make him cool with her response.“Are you sure there isn’t more to the misunderstanding you have with Daniel.” The look on Ryder's face changed the moment he heard the question she asked him. There was a loud silence at the dinning as they both stared at each other in the eyes.“Why are you asking that all of a sudden?” Ryder broke the silence with a faint smile on his face.“Nothing, I just got a hunch. Maybe I am just overthinking it.” Andra replied and they heard the doorbell ring.Andra knew it was time to be
Alpha Daniel povIt’s been five days already and there’s been no trace of the guy that sneaked his way into the house. I decided to stop thinking too much about it. Instead it’s better I start thinking of a better solution so that by the time they try to use the ledger against me, I will be able to defend myself.“Good morning Alpha Daniel.” Hope greeted with a smile on her face.“You haven’t visited the hospital in a while, is there any reason why?” I asked Hope because I’ve been curious to know why she barely visits the hospital and at this stage of her pregnancy she’s supposed to be visiting there very well.“Uhmm, I was there two days ago, you’ve been too involved in the ledger case so you didn’t notice,” Hope said to me, I paused for a moment and i still can’t remember her leaving the house to visit a hospital.“Is the baby okay?” I asked her and from her silence I could already tell there might be something wrong. She sighed and let out a soft smile.“Yes, I mean what could be w
Writer’s POV Ryder was seated in his sitting room, though he was still bothered about Andra and why she reacted the way she did last night and this morning she left the house without saying anything to him. “I hope she’s okay.” He muttered and sat properly. While he was seated one of his security officers walked into the house with a file. “Good day sir, this came in for you.” He collected the file immediately and a huge grin escaped his lips. “You can go,” Ryder said to the young man and turned back to look at the file. Without opening it one could tell from his expression that it is a very important file. He opened the file without hesitating and went through it, then he brought out his phone and placed a call across to someone. “Hello best friend.” He said excitedly. “You are so shameless, how will you refer to me as your best friend when you left me here and you’re over there living your best life.” The strange person said to him, Ryder chuckled hearing how petty h
Deandra POV The moment I got to the sitting room I sighted Sophie with two other girls. I was shocked to see that she is already inviting guests over.“What's going on here?” I asked curiously and they all turned to look at me. Sophie was not moved by my words, instead she acted like she didn't hear me say anything.“You heard me Sophie.” I said to her angrily. I knew from the start that Sophie and I wouldn't get along well but I wasn't expecting it to be this early. I don't know why but it's obvious she doesn't like me and she's not giving me the chance to get close to her. “What now? I'm not allowed to bring my friends over?” Sophie asked angrily. I smirked upon what she said. I can't believe she started this so early. We don't even know each other yet. “Stop making it a big deal Sophie I never Said your friends are not allowed here I would only prefer if you talk to me first about it.” I said to her trying to wrap it up because obviously we had guests and I was trying my best no
Deandra povThe next morning. I woke up almost forgetting that we now have strangers living with us though they’re his family but they are complete strangers to me. And that young girl he calls his sister I know too well that she has something up her sleeves. I stood up from the bed and walked out of the room. Ryder had already left for work so it was just me and them in the house, Aliya barely had time to spend in the house because of her work. The moment I got downstairs I sighted both of them on the dinning. “This is going to be hard for me.” I muttered to myself and paused walking, but thinking about it very well, if I don’t treat them well Ryder wouldn’t be pleased because they helped him when he needed it the most. I passed the dining area and headed inside the kitchen, while I was passing my eyes met with Clarissa’s but we didn’t say anything to each other. I know they don’t like me, I can feel it. I picked a bottle of water and gulped it immediately. I was suddenly not in
Deandra povI couldn’t understand what was going on even though I wanted to. Ryder has never told me anything about having a family, he only told me he had someone he used to call mom and she has a daughter and they are not in the country but he never told me they were so close. They returned to the pack and instead of going to their mansion they chose to stay in the pack house. I didn’t find that reasonable in any way. I had to send him a message so that he can return downstairs because I don’t trust them at all. I can’t believe I will be having dinner with complete strangers.“I saw your text so I had to return downstairs.” Ryder said to me while panting, he looked so stressed, I could tell the whole thing was stressing him out as well, so I decided not to be a bitch and just go with the flow, as long as they don’t trouble me there will be peace, I just have to take it for two days. “Two days Ryder.” I reminded him. “Yes, two days.” He replied to me assuring me they’ll be leavin
Daniel’s povI couldn’t stop pacing around the room because I was very pissed at Yolanda, she has been suffering from such an illness and she never bothered to tell me anything. After finding out a few days ago when she was found unconscious in her room I have been unable to sleep.She has been in a hospital in the pack closer to the woods because we had to pretend to be someone else, if not we would be allowed inside the pack because it was all round that we were exiled from the pack.I stepped out of the room after pacing around for a while, it’s something I can’t get over and such a situation has made my hatred for Ruder worse because my mom would have told me about her I’ll was and get proper treatment if she was still the Alpha’s mother.The moment I stepped out I noticed everyone had already gone to bed, I sat outside and had a lot on my mind, where do I start from with my revenge plan? what do I do first?I kept asking myself questions that I have no answer to, the most import
Deandra pov I tried my best keeping my cool for so long but I think it’s never helped me, instead it’s made me look weaker than I really am. I couldn’t hold it in this time because they were saying more than they should already. “Who else would I be asking such a question?” I replied to him immediately. “You don’t know me, you don’t know anything about me, so don’t you dare sit down there and call me names because you don’t know me!” I said to him angrily and made a fist, it’s the absolute first time Ryder is seeing me like this I guess nothing could stop it this time. “Hey, come on, why are you getting worked up over something I was joking about.” The young man tried to make it look like I was taking it too seriously when it’s just a harmless word. “You and I know that you weren’t joking,” I said to him angrily. Though I was ready to quit the topic and head back to the house, I needed to do it the right way because that’s the only way he would know that he was really annoying.
Writer’s povYolanda was still thinking of the move to take, she knew that it would not go the way she wants if she keeps telling Daniel to stay away from Andra because it seems like he’s not giving up anytime soon. It was very exhausting for her but she had no other choice but to take that step to protect her son since he has refused to be smart about it. “Mom are you okay?” Daniel asked when he met his mother in deep thought, she raised her head to look at him and walked away. Since that day she has stopped talking to him, she only serves his food and walks away. “Mom, are we going to keep doing this? Come on, we are not children, if you’re with me tell me instead of giving this silent treatment.” Daniel said to his mother as she was walking away. Yolanda paused walking and turned back to look at him, she was wondering if he’s really stupid or he’s too slow to understand that what he is doing is the reason why she has stopped talking to him. Even though she’s thinking of a soluti
Deandra povI knew coming here would turn out like this but I was ready to take the risk, his words were hurtful but I expected them so I wasn’t too upset. “You don’t need to ask for my help before I know you need it.” I explained to him, sounding a little upset, Ryder couldn’t stop sighing while I was seated there which made me feel some type of way, it’s fine if he says what’s on his mind rather than sighing and makes me feel burdened.“Andra, you have your own thing to worry about and that’s your health and that of the baby, what would I do if anything happens to both of you?” He asked calmly. He was slowly calming down when he sensed he was becoming too mean with his words. “My baby and I are fine. I could tell from the way you were talking yesterday that you were really bothered by the loss the company is facing so I just thought I would be able to help the little way I can. Please don’t refuse my help.” I pleaded, I don’t want to have any regrets, which is why I took the bold
Deandra povAfter the conversation I had with Ryder yesterday I finally decided to show interest in the company. Maybe when we work together we would be able to work out something that’ll help the company. While Ryder was leaving the house I watched him without saying anything because I knew he would definitely stop me. “See you later.” He said to me before leaving and pecked me on the forehead. I smiled and waved goodbye while still thinking of how he would feel when he sees me in the office today. After he left the house, I stood up and hurried downstairs to eat breakfast. While eating I kept thinking about the whole situation because I needed a good reason before I left the house. While waiting I decided to place a call across to the Indian investors. They’re the ones I have a good relationship with so it’ll be better I call them, hopefully they would still be interested in the company. After dialling the number I stopped myself again, it was so hard for me to bring myself to ca
Deandra povI couldn’t believe my ears, I was dumbfounded, was it a bad idea to be worried about your husband? I kept asking myself questions, I needed to know where I was wrong but not now, right now I don't want to see his face. “I'm sorry Andra I just…”“Please go away.” I said to him Interrupting whatever it is he was planning to tell me. I just couldn't hear his voice at this point, it has to be my most embarrassing moment since we've had a misunderstanding. I can't believe he yelled at me with such a tone when I was only worried about him.“Andra.” I turned to the other side of the bed showing my lack of interest in what he had to say. Ryder didn't push it anymore he walked out of the room, but almost immediately he walked back into the room and sent everyone away until it was just both of us left in the room. “Did you not hear what I said?” I asked him angrily, even though I was pleased he didn't leave the room like I told him to. “I need you to hear him out, I didn't want t
