I woke up the next morning with a bright smile on my face.Orlan had made funny faces to make me smile, and when Addison had asked who's that... I deny the fact that I was staring at anyone. In this case, I'm grateful for Orlan's superpower.Orlan had disappeared when my brother stared outside the window. The night quickly ended, and now is another day. A day off... Well! I hope that today will be greater than my expectations. I rise from the bed, and to my surprise, my brother is already awake. He's currently busy writing something which only he is aware of. "Why are you awake so early?" I ask him, before closing the distance between us. "I was thinking of a way to set you free," Addison stated, but he wasn't staring at me. "Did you come up with a way?" I find myself asking, and then I scold myself. He breathes out in frustration, and then he shakes his head sideways. "I'm still thinking of a way, and the only method that came to my mind is that we should report this to the p
I slowly raise my head and gaze at the person whose hand is holding my mind. "You?" I asked, as my brows were slightly arched. His eyes were no longer greenish but this time around it's brown, which means that he's currently putting on contact lenses. Besides if my parents see his eyes, I'm sure that they would oblige to whatever he says, without being aware. Hypnotizing eyes have their power after all. "He had to pay your bride price, so you better pack your things and start going." My Mama said. "Mom, do you know him?" I asked my Mom. This is the first time that Orlan is stomping his foot inside my parent's house so how does my Mom quickly agree to him paying my bride price!"He said that you both are a couple and he also claims to be in love with you." My papa said. "Do you know him?" Addison asked, and once again I'm making him worried."He's my friend. The one I told you about....." I didn't bother to complete my statement, so instead, I dragged my brother out of the sit
After hearing those words from Orlan, I pretend not to know the exact meaning behind those words... as I stare outside the window. The car ride was just so exhausting that I slept off before we could even reach our destination. I felt a strong carrying me, and I forced my eyes open only to see Edward."You are tired. Have some rest." He uttered, without even allowing me to jump down from his body. He climbs the staircase and then he drops me on my bed, before making his way out of the room. I no longer feel sleepy so I was able to see him make his way out of my room. When he was finally gone, I rose from the bed and made my way toward the bathroom. I haven't had my morning bath, so I quickly took my bath, and after cleaning my body properly, I put on the white bathrobe. There are some changes in the room, and I can see that there's now a closet which is filled with Ladies' wear. I grab some underwear and put them on. Since I'm no longer feeling sleepy, I made my way towards t
"Let me love you, Scarlett." He mumbled. I blinked a few times because I became immobile. "I know that all this feels new to you, but I promise to treat you well," Orlan added, which made me more confused. 'Where are these feelings coming from?' I asked myself. Based on his mode of speaking, I could tell that he was sincere with his statement, but the question is 'Why?' Why is he making such a promise to a stranger? "Even if I fall in love with you, we both can't be together," I mumble, hoping that my words don't sound hurtful. "And why can't we be together?" He asked. I remove his hands from my hair, and then I gaze at him. "I'm human, okay, and you are... You know that a relationship between a human and a supernatural being can never work." "I'm a human, okay. And besides, no one knows that I rise from the dead, so there's nothing bad if we fall for each other." Orlan tries to defend. I rub my palm together, and then I shake my head sideways. "You are creepy," I mumble, be
The day was fast spent with me discussing some things with Orlan. Getting to know him better wasn't so much of a bad idea, and I also figured out that he's friendly and also dangerous when offended. Rising from the bed, a bright smile was plastered on my pretty face. I quickly took my bath and wore a plain black shirt, white long sleeves, and a pair of black shoes. This is officially my first time wearing office wear, and I feel a little bit weird. I'm a lady who's in her early twenties so I have to behave more like an adult, instead of behaving like a kid. Grabbing a black handbag, I made my way out of the room, only to bump into Orlan.He hangs his mouth slightly open and stares at me in admiration. "You look like a good lady." He complimented, without gazingsaway. "I know that I look stunning, but the problem is my hair... It makes me seem weird." I complain. Naturally most ladies are born with black, brown, or blunt hair. On the other hand, my parents gave birth to me wit
Immediately after I got down from the car, I made my way toward the company entrance. I can't believe that a while ago, I had the urge to kiss Orlan. Besides what's so good about a kiss? Kissing the lips of someone I barely know is the last thing I would want to do. The security guard stopped me from entering the company, so I have to wait for Orlan to come to my rescue once again. Orlan rescued me shortly, as he told the workers that I'm with him. "How come they know you are the ones in this company?" I asked Orlan. If he had been in that coffin for years, then some of his workers would have been dead. Besides, the security guards are all young men, so they wouldn't have known him... Or would they?"They are my friends." He whispers, before winking his eyes. I know that there's more to the words ' Friend.' Perhaps they might also be wolves like Orlan. "Ohh!" I mumble. "So does that mean that all your workers are also like them?" "My workers are Humans, and they haven't seen
"Why did you do that?" I finally have the chance to question Orlan. We are currently on our way home, and the entire day was Damm so busy that I just couldn't find the right time to ask him. Orlan had called me his wife in front of the entire board members. I was puzzled because I don't have an idea of where exactly this is coming from. "I mean if you have to promote the new brand of perfume by allowing an actress and actor to promote it...Then the first line which they are expected to use is... Wifey! what are you staring at!" Orlan had said to the board members. It occurs to me that they have just launched a new brand of perfume and they want a model to promote it. Those present buy the idea of his statement, but for the short time that I had known Orlan... I can tell that there's more to his words. "We are going to the boutique to get you something that you feel comfortable with," Orlan replied, as he continued to ignore my previous question. "You are ignoring me," I said,
Orlan's lips taste like milk chocolate, and I wish for it to forever continue. He slowly uses his tongue to open my mouth, which causes his tongue to me inside my mouth. His tongue started playing and I closed my eyes to savor this magical moment. "You....." The voice of Lucas suddenly startled me and Orlan, and I quickly pulled away from him. I was about to run inside the house when Orlan grabbed my lips, as he pulled me for a hug. "You can come over to my place later in the day Okay," Lucas uttered, as he made his way out of the compound. I watch as he walks out of the compound with my heart beating rapidly. "How are you feeling?" Orlan whispered to my ear. I bite my lower lip, as I refuse to answer such a question. Currently! I'm feeling great, but how can I possibly bring myself to tell him that? "I mean... Alright! Let's get you changed." He stated, before carrying me up in princess style. "Why.... Do I need to change after a kiss? And I don't have any intention of ha
I gaze at the afternoon sky before smiling. Now no one idealizes Orlan away from me.I have a baby who's yet to be born, and I and Orlan are going to raise our child in a way that is loved by God, and we are not going to treat our children differently, just as the way my parents had done to me and my siblings. Orlan has been just a nightmare to me from my very first encounter with him. He appeared in my dream and pleaded that I should find him. Well! Who would have thought that finding Orlan is the best thing in life? Finding Orlan in the forest inside the coffin is just like finding myself. My husband and I might have gone through a lot. We argue with each other and later reconcile. Yeah! A true family isn't all about sunshine and rainbows. There are going to be d daddy and also good days, but finding a way to overcome each day with your partner by your side, is what makes a great family. I quarrel with each other, but our love doesn't allow our flaws to define us. I was ju
I was really tired to hear the bullshit that was coming out of Ashley's mouth, so without wasting time I pushed Ashley to the side, which made her quickly fire the gun. Everything seems to freeze for a second, and after that second has passed…... everybody began to scream non-stop. I was certain that if I pushed Ashley's hand away, then I would be able to take charge of the position, and I might as well beat her up. I only pushed the hand of this psycho individual, but I never knew that Ashley could be so ruthless, even to the extent of firing his gun. The bullet didn't hit anyone, which I was now happy about. The shock from the bullet and everything, made me place my hands on both sides of my ear. I never knew that being pregnant can also make the body of an individual change. I was still staring at the floor while trying to calm my breathing, but then I felt the hand of someone around my shoulder. Without turning around, I already knew whose hands were around my shoulder. M
"What the fuck are you trying to do with my woman?". Orlan was the one to scream this time around, as he made his way toward me. "Quit coming closer to Orlan! Or I'm fucking going to hurt your wife!" Ashley screamed, which made everybody present gasp in surprise. The music in the background has long stopped playing, and everywhere is so cold, and quiet. I became disgusted with what Ashley had just said. She even has the gut to threaten me or has she forgotten that I used to be a phoenix and a Luna of a great Pack? I frowned, and I was about to close the distance between us. Ashley wasn't staring at me, but she was glaring at Orlan, so I took this as a good sign for me to attack her as quickly as possible, which is before she would become aware. I was almost close to her, but then she suddenly turned around, which took me by surprise. Ashley glared at me with nice eyes, and I didn't even know where she had been hiding her gun, until she suddenly brought it out, and pointed it a
Throughout the time that Orlan was claiming that I might be due….. I at first believed him, because all the symptoms that I'm currently facing are also the same symptoms of pregnant women being due. Even though I have a feeling that it's all a symptom of pregnancy, I still decided to shove it away, telling myself that I'm I'll. Orlan took me back to the house that day, and shower me with love. He prepared breakfast, lunch, and even dinner for me. I know that he is very happy to spend the entire day with me, which makes him seem like the happiest man in the entire universe. We both cuddle in the bed and sleep while listening to the sound of each other's heartbeat. The next morning, I was so lazy to wake up on time, and before I rose from the bed, I saw that Orlan was no longer beside me. I sluggishly got my ass up from the bed, so that I would be able to use the restroom. I walked back to the room and grabbed a bottle of water. I have gotten so used to staring outside the win
Three months later!I gaze outside the window while maintaining a smile on my face. My hands are across each other, and I just couldn't help but gaze at the beautiful view that's currently in front of me. The view of the city is Damn beautiful, and it gives a feeling that even the mouth can't explain. I was still staring outside the window when I felt a strong hand wrapped around my waist, and l knew for sure who the person was. I slowly turn around and stare at Orlan, smiling. Orlan smiled back at me, and he planted a kiss on my lips, which made my smile grow wider. It has been more than a year since I and Orlan have known each other, but his kiss still does things that make my body feel the tingle. "Are you still feeling unwell?". My husband asked me, and I slightly nodded my head. I don't know why I'm feeling like this, but for the past week, I have been so lazy and I most times feel disgusted by any little thing. "Don't worry, okay!'' We are both going to visit the hospital
I frown my face in complete anger as I gaze at Ashley. She also stares back at me in anger which doesn't even make any sense. I was expecting her to plead and apologize for all that she did to my pack, but Ashley just has the heart of a devil. A stone heart to be precise. "Why are you here?" She asked while arching her brows. I suddenly have the urge to laugh out loud, but I can't laugh when someone who pissed the hell out of me is currently standing at my front. "This is my husband's property." I declare as I force a smile across my lips. "Husband?" She asked, sounding as if she had thought that I and Orlan weren't going to get married. "Yeah! And what's that...."Before I was even able to ask any question, Orlan immediately cut in. "You are expected to greet your elders when you see them." Orlan declares. She scuffed. "Is it because you are more than five hundred years old? What on earth makes you think that I would greet you? Besides, age is just a freaking number so I onl
"Go and grab a bedsheet and bedcover because you are going to spend your night in the sitting room." I declare out of the blue. "Huh?" Orlan mumbled. "You hear me correctly Orlan. Besides you have once insulted me that I should get my ear checked, and you...." I just couldn't bring myself to voice out all the hurtful words he had said to me last night. "Just quickly grab what I had instructed you to grab, or else you are going to spend your night with no blanket " I uttered, completing my previous statement. "Are you joking?" Orlan asked, and he had a confused expression all over his face. "You bet I am," I said while smirking. "If this is my punishment, then I'm gladly going to accept it," Orlan said while smiling. He immediately teleported out of my presence, and I'm stunned to see him reappearing with just a blanket. "Would that be enough for the night?" I interrogate them so I believe that he needs more. Perhaps a bedsheet to spray on the couch. "I don't even deserve to be u
Since I felt a little bit weak, I decided to take a nice hot bath, to cool my tense nerves. After taking my bath, I made my way outside the bathroom while being completely naked. Orlan had failed to store all my clothes in his room. I exhaled, making my way out of his room as I headed straight to my room. I grab a pair of trousers that frees me properly. The trousers belong to Orlan, but I still decided to put them on. I also wore one of Orlan's shirts and it reached me at my knee level. The shirt is White. "You look so stunning!" Orlan uttered, which was immediately he saw me making my way down the staircase. "What a silly compliment," I mumble while chuckling. Orlan closes the distance between the both of us. "I'm serious! You are stunning." Orland declares. I chuckle but decided to just go with the flow. "What have you prepared so far?" I interrogate. Orlan exhales. "I haven't prepared anything yet." He whispers, biting his lower lip. Currently! Orlan is behaving like a s
At night time, I felt my back becoming all soar, and I guess it's as a result of the fact that I have been lying down on the bed for a very long time. "Orlan I'll love to head back home." I declare. I and Orlan have been talking to each other, but still, I haven't forgiven Orlan yet. I had made it clear to him that he shouldn't keep his hopes up high. Besides, Orlan needs to learn from his mistake. He needs to learn that raising your hands on a lady is a sin. "But the doctor said that you need to rest." Orlan declares as he gives me a reassuring smile. I frown. "I can rest at home, so what's the difference?" I ask. "The doctor knows what's best for you Scarlett. Perhaps he has his reasons for making such a statement." Orlan utters as he tries to defend the doctor.I shift my gaze towards the doctor that's currently inside my hospital room. Arching my brows I ask. "What are the reasons that require me to stay at the hospital?" The doctor exhaled. "I had made that statement so th
