Jasmine's pov
Later, when Mira had left, I became a bit restless. She fumed, fussed, and cussed until she finally could no longer tolerate my presence—whatever it was that was bothering her. That same afternoon, I was up with a weird feeling in my stomach. Something feels off like there are bad things waiting to happen.
I haven't heard from Kyle, and when I called him, his phone went straight to voicemail. Yes, we exchanged numbers yesterday. A step forward, I know.
But right now, I don't think I can withstand the urge anymore. I needed to talk to him or to feel him. I needed closure and that too, with him again. But there was nothing I could do about it—since he was not reachable and I couldn't exactly show up at
Kyle's pov What a fucking disaster of a week it has been! it was full-blown chaos, starting with the vampire capturing Rayne, up to the fact that Alpha Lucien would actually put his only daughter against me. That's not my problem now, is it? What is my problem is the fact that I couldn't get her face off my mind. Her tempting full pouty lips, her blue bird-like eyes, her straight pointed nose, her thick long lashes, about the way her cheeks flushed when I kissed her plump lips, her whole body reacting so beautifully to my touch, her intoxicating smell and...god! Everything fucking it about her seemed to be latched forever in my memory. "Goddamit Kyle, how could you let her get so close to you? How could you be so reckless? What if she has done so
Kyle's povDrake's question lingered in the air for a couple of seconds before I answered."Still working on it," I said, twirling the pen between my fingers."Why do I feel strongly in my guts that you have the plan made out already.?" Raul asked his usual expression back on his face. He is now very much looking like the earthy but eccentric vampire I'm used to seeing whenever I look at him and not the almost dying frog picture I have of him from moments ago. He was his usual mystic self again."You might be correct. But until I've confirmed all features of this plan, it remains unsaid," I chuckled out.In truth, I've known
Jasmine's povIt was 4:00 in the morning, and I was still fully awake, cursing myself for being so stupid and apparently, incapable of ending a phone conversation when I should or knowing when to call a spear a spear."I can't believe I did send that voice mail. I thought I didn't," I mumbled to myself.I had gone home to my parent's place. I left Dominic's house about seven hours ago. My parents had already gone to bed, and maybe I should, too. But instead, I found myself in the front of mine, shuffling through my Netflix with a carton of Italian fries, milk, chips, cheese, and cookies—your typical Netflix and chills night."I'm such a clumsy idiot," I said to myself as I aggre
Kyle's povThe remaining days of the week passed in a blur, between schoolwork, the emperor's responsibility, and keeping tabs on my business that I almost forgot to keep tabs on my new wolf friend, Jasmine even though that was all I wanted to do."Sir, what is up with you today?. You look a little bit off.""Yeah, you look so off. Is it something we should be bothered about?"I looked at my friends and I couldn't help but sigh. We were all present at the packhouse, an apartment we've gotten fit for all of our internal work. Since the werewolves were smart enough to discover the ones we had before in the woods, we decided to up our game a little by playing a fast one on them.I looked at my friends and I could see that worth was eminent on their faces. It is almost hard to believe what was wrong with me. Even I couldn't yet fathom it and there was no way I would tell them about it. Or maybe I know just what i
Kyle's pov"Jasmine huh? Suits her!" Arturo said with a grin that I so much wanted to wipe off his face because he annoys the living daylight out of me."What the hell is that supposed to mean dumbass? It suits her?" I ask clearly annoyed and Raul is just as annoyed as I am. He is probably angrier than me because, for all I know, he doesn't even see the prick from a milestone away. "She's a woman. A feminine name, so it suits her." Ariel was the one that spoke next. "At least you know the name and thank you but we already know that it suits her. So steer clear and there are some warnings we don't give twice."Yeah, I'm aware you already know about her," Arturo stated but stopped talking. He tossed some of the nuts on the table inside his mouth and then continued. "Jasmines are always hot. Like Jasmine oil, they are always sleek, inviting to touch, and very, very, very lickable…"Maybe it
Jasmine's POV"Let's say you didn't. You had the option to tell me from the start that you have something to attend to…I'm not angry by the way. I need to come up with the next chapter of my novel. Talk to you some other time." After sending Kyle my reply, I tossed my mobile phone somewhere on my bed as I felt slight pain crawling up my throat. Not pain to be exact —disgust! Yeah, that should be the best word to describe how I felt for being such a throw-away. I've never been a throw-body to anybody. And now, the first male I would be such a person to, chose to snub me like I was a nuisance. Not his fault though, if only I had stuck to my coven, this shame wouldn't have been mine.Remind me to always stick to myself, from now henceforth. Early morning bath when I don't have class was something I never did, or seldom did. But right now, the urge to get some stickiness out of my flesh is mighty. And not to mention the pool
Jasmine's pov"Looking for this?" My head swept immediately to the direction the voice had come from."Kyle?" I asked unbelievably. "What the hell…how the hell…?" Instead of answering me, his smirk only grew wide. He signaled the thing he was holding in his hand and fuck me if I say I didn't reel back from the shock I got from it. My face immediately went crimson and so did the rest of my body, I was sure. My mouth slightly opened in semblance to my bugging wandering eyes with delight. "How did you get those?" I finally managed to ask even if my voice was as tiny as a whimper."Should that really be the problem?" He asked casually and I threw him the how-the-hell glare. I mean, aside from the fact that he mysteriously appeared in my bedroom, he also had in his hands, a sex toys box, which I'm sure he must have gone through, and on top of that, I'm butt naked. He looked directly into my eyeball for a while before he spoke
Jasmine's POV"Fuck." I growled and slurred at the same time. My stomach chose to register at this time of all other times that there was nothing inside of it. "Food first?" Kyle asked."Hmmm-hmmm!" I replied with a slight head shake."You look hungry and drained," Kyle retorted."Not for food." I protested and he chuckled."Claws off tiger…As much as I'd appreciate devouring every bit of you and savoring your juices therein, I don't like it when the women I'm interested in don't eat. Food first. Every other thing should come second." he regarded me for another second and pressed his mouth into a hard line "The things I want to do you you are just so crazy and bizarre but I won't touch you any further unless with your consent. A few minutes ago... Was great. I don't regret it. But at the same time, I'd do whatever it takes to make sure it doesn't happen again—at least for now. Not unt
Jasmine's PovNo matter how hard I tried, I couldn't control the anger that kept on rising in my heart as I was baffled at the evil that Trisha contained in her whole soul… that woman was wicked, heartless, and any other words I could think of to describe a person that had no remorse in his heart. How could someone be so filled with evil and still crave to do bad things to people? What was she going to gain? I kept on stringing my fingers, squeezing them tight, hoping to dissipate the anger that was swelling inside of me but it wasn't helping, nothing was changing. I had never felt this angry before and there seemed to be no option to calm down. I hated feeling this way but there was nothing I could do to get rid of these negative feelings growing inside me… I kind of felt good in a way; imagining gruesome things that I would like to do to Trisha and that miserable father and uncle of hers in my head because the hate I now felt for them was way more than what I felt when Trisha fucke
Trisha's POVKyle looked so torn. And no, I'm not talking about the cuts in his flesh or the splits in his cloth. I'm talking about his inner man. One look at him and you would easily conclude that he's accepted his fate—he had accepted his death, but yet, along with the look of a man who is torn, is the look of triumph. You'd look into his eyes and you'd see fulfillment and acceptance, not even an iota of regret or fear. Despite all the torture he had gone through, he was still head bent on keeping shut on all the questions he was asked. With every stroke of the whip he received, I felt the pain with him and for as many times he died, I died with him.This is shocking coming from a girl who has never felt pity, I know.As I stood and watched the suffering he had to endure because of me, I couldn't help but feel guilty. "Tighten his neck cuff," Bernard yelled to the guards before he landed a final blow on Kyle's stomach and trotted away along with my father. I stood and looked at Ky
Jasmine's Pov“And that time when Raul got stranded before we became familiar with this place and all the trees and stuff?” Athens laughed.“And he kept on screaming about how he had got lost and was going to die when she was only about a few meters from where we had left her too?” Drake interjected.“Could he not have just tried to sniff her way out? You know, using vampire senses?” I laughed.“I asked the same thing! He could have just done that, but he did not!” Athens said and reached his hand in my direction. I raised my hand to hit him with a high five and we started to laugh.“In the end, I eventually had to come over and hold his hand and lead him out here. It was quite hilarious for everyone.” Drake said, brushing some invisible dirt off his pants“I always try my best to help everyone, you know?” I was still laughing when I noticed Loretta wasn't doing much. “Loretta?” I called out to her. She raised her head as if she had just snapped back to reality before she blinked twi
Trisha's Pov"How could you father? You had an affair with one of the werewolves and you made me believe it's because of a certain wrong a certain vampire somewhere did to you. We were here trying to catch a vampire. Who did you no wrong?" I asked unbelievably. "Kyle did me no wrong but he was abusing the rights of humans—he was killing innocent people or ushering them into a life they know nothing about and that too against their will," my father said, walking closer to me but I took steps back."What was the actual reason? Or something you had to come up with to cover your wrongs?" I asked with teary eyes."Jasmine…" I cut him off."Answer me, Dad! I want to know. Have you been lying to me all this while?" "I wasn't lying to you. I really want to catch the bad guy. I really want to catch Kyle," "Why? Why do you want to catch him so badly? Other than the fact that he is a bad guy and you catch bad guys, I want to know the reason why you have so much loathing for him. And please te
Trisha's Pov.No no no no no no!My head ached badly and it felt like with every syllable of the word Jasmine spewed my heart was ripped out of its cage over and over again. I was caught up with rage as I heard Kyle reject me over again because of Jasmine and after all the gibberish she spewed, all I wanted to do was kill her. I didn't know what to do. I felt frustrated with every spark that traveled between them. It was palpable…so palpable it made the atmosphere of the chamber rise and burn my self-control.I looked haggard. My hair was everywhere and my mascara was running along with my nose but I didn't care. I couldn't….How could I care when I just found out one man I've ever loved is getting married to another and that another being Jasmine? I attacked my hair with my fingers and scratched my scalp until both my fingertips and scalp started to hurt. My bedroom door suddenly flew open but I didn't bother to check who it was, only one mother fucking scumbag would enter my room
Jasmine's pov."Rob?" I shouted, almost tripping on my foot. "Mummy?" I heard my tiny boy's voice. Before long, he appeared head first and ran into my waiting arms. "I've missed you, mommy,""I miss you too, my boy," I said as I peppered his face and head with kisses. "How are you doing? Are you ill? Is Daddy Dominic ill? What about Margaret?" I bombarded the small boy with questions."No mommy. We are all fine," he said happily, his tiny arms still wrapped around my neck. Just then Dominic trotted over causing me to release my boy and walk over to him, awkwardly. "Hey!" I greeted him."I think we have said enough of that earlier today. How have you been and how is your fiance?" he spoke so softly and I strained, looking for edges of contempt in his tone or facial expression and I couldn't find none and as far as my mind-reading abilities worked, I couldn't spot any too."We have both been good," I answered with a small smile."And the preparation? ""All good," I said in a conclusi
Jasmine's PovIf I had known going over to Dominic's place would end up so badly then I would have just sent him an invitation through his mail. Boy was angry for obvious reasons and I had mixed feelings—something I didn't want to think about. All I wanted to focus on right now was that I was getting married to Kyle in a few days time but I couldn't bring myself to tell him I was carrying his child. Everything was happening so fast and the pace was frightening.It was almost dawn yet everybody was asleep and I was doing some thinking—fixing some puzzles. My dream as a girl was to have my mother dress me up for my wedding and my father to walk me down the aisle but now—now there was nothing. I was still thinking when my hormones kicked in—I was suddenly so hungry that I could empty eight large pizzas. Three medium size doughnuts and three cups of coffee later, I was perched on the kitchen island with my palm supporting my head when I heard shuffling.Kyle came into the kitchen, nose f
Dominic's PovThe last person I had expected to see by my doorstep this morning was the person there. I looked at Jasmine wondering if she got the wrong address or something. The urge to ask her that question was heavy on the tip of my tongue. I had to swallow repeatedly to keep the words from coming out. "Can I come in?" She asked in a tiny voice. The way her pupils refused to meet mine, I knew something tangible had happened. From the time we were kids until now, Jasmine had this idea of not needing the eyes of the people she provoked."What did you do, Jasmine?" I asked her but she was still not looking at my face. "I really…""I can't tell you here," she began to query but I cut her off too."I want to know right here and right now," I said, my voice going up a beat."I'm getting married to Kyle," a minute or maybe a second passed. It could be days too that passed without any of us saying any other thing than that. I was trying to wrap my head around this new piece of information
Jasmine's PovI'd never been to a wedding before and I was pretty anxious about this one even if I wasn't the one getting married. Quickly, I discarded my robe and changed into my floor-length dress. The sequin fabric of my cocktail dress hugged my figure like a second skin, emphasizing my A-cup ample breast, dipped waist, curvy and perfectly outlined hips, and perky round ass. I smiled in satisfaction, adding a few delicate pieces of emerald stones which I got from my boutique to finish my look. My facial makeup was light but I had done a little more intense work on my eyes and lips. I had a smokey dark brown cut-crease eye look and a matching ombre color on my lips. The rest of my face was as natural as it could be. I let my hair flow down my back in soft waves after I used my finger to ruffle them a little, giving the apt messy but elegant chick look...“You look so beautiful,” Loretta clapped her hands in glee and undiluted admiration as soon as she saw me. Marvin was dressed and
