Writer’s POVAndra and Aliya were having the best moment of their life together as they were practically doing everything together. Aliya was the happiest among the two because she thought she finally have a sister that she never had before.“Did you get any mail from Edna?” Aliya asked the moment she jumped up from the bed. I turned to look at her and shook my head.“Did you?” I asked and she nodded her head. I moved closer to her to check the mail and see what was written in it. When I saw the mail I couldn’t hold in the laughter. “Did she really say you won’t find a better job?” I asked and we both laughed.We decided to go out to eat because there was nothing available in the house. While we were preparing my phone rang, I picked the call and checked who was calling, it was Ryder.“Hmmm.” Aliya teased and excused me so that I could freely speak to him on the phone. My cheeks were hurting from smiling too much.“We are preparing to go eat out.” I said to him as we were about to end
Daniel’s povThe day for the final decision is tomorrow. I couldn't help but feel nervous as I was sitting in the sitting room. I have tried my best by trying to get everyone on my side and hopefully they will be on my side. I heaved a sigh as I saw my mom walking towards my direction.She’s definitely coming to ask me questions because she’s also aware that tomorrow is the big day.“Camilla hasn’t returned home for two days now, and she is not picking her calls.” Yolanda said to me as she sat beside me, I couldn’t be stressed about Camilla when I have a bigger problem to face in the office tomorrow.I wasn’t responding to what she was saying to me then she looked at my face curiously.“Why do you look worried?” She asked.I heaved a sigh and rested my head on the chair. I was trying to be hopeful about tomorrow but I couldn’t help but worry.“Are you worried about tomorrow?” Mom asked and I nodded my head almost immediately. She folded her hands around her chest and heaved a sigh whe
Deandra’s povWhile we were about leaving the house, I looked around and remembered the first day I got to this human would and how scared I was to speak to anyone because I thought they would try to hurt me or I might lose control and they would find out who I am.It was such a bad moment for me, but looking back now I’m happy I came here and if I hadn’t I wouldn’t meet a sweet person like Aliya. We both held hands and entered the car.While we drove out I couldn’t stop feeling nervous, the feeling of meeting those that hurt me stroke me really hard because I want to see their reaction when they see my face, I want them to feel like their world is collapsing the moment we set eyes on each other.I turned to look at Ryder as he was driving and let out a soft smile then I rested my head on the car window.*********Few hours later we arrived at the pack. I was fast asleep already. “Andra.” Aliya tapped me and I opened my eyes.When I opened my eyes I noticed the environment we’re in ha
Andra’s povI didn’t move from the spot where I asked him the question because I was really interested in getting a reply from him. I felt like it had gotten to the point where he should reply to me.“Can we at least sit down before having that conversation?” Ryder said to me and we both headed to the pool side. I sat down and folded my hands across my chest waiting to hear what he had to say.I didn’t want to pester him too much, I was willing to give him time to think before saying what he had to say.“My name is Ryder Dagger.” I opened my mouth and covered it immediately with my hand, I couldn’t believe what I just heard him say, he is Alpha Daniel’s brother.“Do you know who that name belongs to? How are you bearing the same surname as Alpha Daniel?” I tried to confirm before jumping into conclusions.But the more I think about it, the clearer it gets. He always had everything, I remember clearly one time we were talking about the pack, he knew so much I never expected him to know
Writer’s pov“Mom, there’s no need to be scared, I heard he hasn’t been around for a long time, there’s no way the board will pick him over me.” Daniel said to his mom with so much confidence. Today decides his fate whether he steps down and someone else takes over or not. Even though Alpha Daniel was pretending not to be bothered he couldn’t help it, he was only hopeful because it’s not over until it is. He still felt some of them would betray him but at least not all will. “You know we can’t be too sure.” Yolanda said to him while trying to help him arrange his shirt collar. Yolanda looked around the sitting room and Hope was nowhere around, is she not supposed to be here to help her husband? Why is she nowhere to be seen around the house? “Where is that young lady?” Yolanda asked, referring to Hope. Just when she asked, Hope walked down the stairs. She knew that Yolanda was upset from the look on Yolanda’s face. “Where were you? Can’t you see that we’re all set to leave?” Yola
Writer’s povThe board meeting was ongoing and Alpha Daniel couldn’t get his eyes off Ryder; he kept looking at him during the board meeting, which was very obvious. “We will now start the vote casting.” The board head announced and they started casting their votes on who will be the company’s director. Alpha Daniel closed his eyes, he was unable to see what was going on because he was too nervous. There was only one vote left. Alpha Daniel opened his eyes to see who the person would be voting for. He looked at Adrien who wasn’t getting up from his seat. Everyone was curious to see who the vote would go to. Adrien stood up from the chair to cast his vote and to the surprise of everyone Including Alpha Daniel, he voted for Ryder. Alpha Daniel folded his hand angrily, that was the last vote that’ll make him retain his position as the director but Adrien ruined it for him. “Now the votes are in and we have a new director of the Daggers.” The board chairman announced excitedly. Yoland
Deandra povRyder was away for the board meeting. Meanwhile, Aliya and I were yet to get a message from him to know how the meeting went. I know he would have called if there was something bad, but his silence seems like good news. “Are you worried?” Aliya asked. I turned to look at her and dropped my glass of wine. “I would be lying if I say I’m not.” I replied to her and heaved a sigh, this is a big step for us, if only he can get the company getting the rest wouldn’t be hard and this will keep them rattled. “We can’t lose it.” I muttered to myself and turned to look at Aliya. It was time for lunch but I wasn’t able to eat it because I was too nervous and stressed at the same time. I walked to the dining room with Aliya and sat on the dining table with her. Aliya was comfortably eating her food but I couldn’t, I kept imagining the worst while I was seated at the dinning. I picked my phone to check if there’s any message from him but there wasn’t. I dropped the phone back on the
Alpha Daniel povSeeing him today felt like a horror to me, the same young boy that mom told me she already took care of was standing in front of me and trying to take my position from me. I couldn’t stop looking at him because I still can’t believe he’s alive and strong, from his appearance I could tell he lived a good life wherever he was. I was seated in the office after the board meeting. I took a walk around my office, looking at everything that dad accomplished and how I have finally let him down. Even though the company is still going to be headed by a family member he still felt like a complete stranger to me. It still felt like a nightmare I want to forget. How in god's name did I let it happen? I sat on the chair and rested my head tiredly. “Hello brother.” Ryder walked into my office and said to me with a mischievous look on his face, I can’t believe I have to deal with this. “Don’t you dare call me brother, I have no brother, you son of a mistress,” Ryder stopped on hi
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
Deandra pov“Are you not happy to see me?” Hope asked. I folded my hand around my chest angrily when I heard the question she asked me. I wonder what she’s doing here. She lowered her eyes and paused when she stared at my belly. “Looks like the baby is kicking well.” She said to me and chuckled. I know she’s not genuinely happy for me so why is she pretending to care?“That doesn’t answer my question. Hope, what are you doing here?” I asked her angrily. The fake smile on her face slowly faded and her true personality was finally out. “I came here to show you my face, I need you to remember how you ruined my life.” I couldn’t believe my ears. What does she mean by that? If we want to talk about a ruined life wouldn’t that be mine?“You know very well that you are not welcome here, your husband and his mother were exiled so what are you doing here?” Ryder asked angrily. He was even more upset because she was acting like it is her right to be here in the first place. I didn’t want Ryd
Writer’s povYolanda covered her mouth with her hand when she had an idea of where her son was, they were just talking about it before he left the house, then he took the initiative of going there immediately, she was hurt and disappointed at the same time, it became clear to her that her son had no initiative of handling such situations especially when they’re in such a mess. “Mom, I have told you she’s innocent, I was watching them over the months and I know that she had no hand in what happened, it was all his doing.” The moment he stopped talking Yolanda landed a heavy slap on his cheek with the intention of bringing him back to his senses. Daniel was shocked that his mother laid her hands on him for the first time. He was startled with his hand still on his cheek and his mom regretting her actions already. “Why do you keep making me do the things I hate the most? Why do you keep making me do these things?” Yolanda asked angrily as she was already regretting the slap she gave hi
