I couldn't move.It felt like a magnet was pulling me closer to him and before I knew it, we were breathing the same air. Literally.Maybe I didn't want to move.He looked even more charming up close. His blue eyes had flecks of grey which I hadn't noticed before and I just realized how spotless his skin was.His minty breath fanned my face and time seemed to stop as he stared at me, switching between my eyes and my lips.I could almost see the wheels turning in his head as he weighed between what was right and wrong and in less than a second, he made his choice and leaned even closer.But just before our lips could touch, I moved to the side, placing my lips a few centimeters from his ear.He had made his choice but I hadn't made mine.“You don't affect me,” I said, even though the slight tremble in my voice betrayed me because being this close to him and inhaling his sweet musky scent made my brain fuzzy.I pulled away and he had a dark look in his eyes and his Adam's apple bobbed.
I watched as their tongues lapped against each other and I felt like hunching over and emptying all the food I had eaten this morning, which was literally nothing.The sight of them kissing with her moaning into his mouth irritated me to no end but more than that, I felt a slight burning sensation in my chest but I kept a straight face.They exchanged saliva for about two minutes before he pulled away and looked me dead in the eyes.“Aww, Alpha, I missed you too,” Karla purred breathlessly and traced circles around his biceps. “Maybe we could take things further after breakfast?” She asked, batting her faux-lashes.He made a non-committal sound at the back of his throat before tearing his gaze away from me and turning back to his food.The fact that whatever they were displaying was affecting me so much made me even angrier than any kiss they would ever share.I wasn't supposed to be feeling this way.My heart, body and soul belonged to only one person so I wasn't supposed to care wha
“We're not done talking!” I said, no longer caring about whatever repercussions it would bring if my words hurt his ego.He had to accept my rejection and he had to do it now!He walked closer to me and I stayed rooted in my spot.“Such fire,” he said huskily and traced a finger along my cheeks and chin and I gulped but his hand soon came around my neck and he grabbed a fistful of my hair, tugging roughly.Instead of feeling pain, sparks shot throughout my body and I bit the insides on my cheeks to stifle a moan.What was this man doing to me?“You know what amuses me about you?” He asked, his breath fanning my face. “Your audacity,” he added and shook his head.I kept my eyes fixed on his even though scalp pricked with burning pleasure.“You don't care that I could bare your ass over that bench and fuck you so hard till there's no bit of sarcasm or disrespect left in you,” he said coldly and it took everything in me to hold back my moan.His dirty words did wicked things to me that I
Morning rolled in really quickly and I stirred in the bed for a few seconds before sitting up and stretching.For some reason, there was a smile on my face and I felt giddy inside but I quickly pinned the morning happiness to the fact that I was going to see Jason and my family today and not attribute it to what had gone down in the shower yesterday.I cringed at the memory of moaning Ares' name.That was just in the spur of the moment and a one-off.It wasn't like I wanted to have sex with him or something.I definitely wanted…. didn't want to.I belonged to nobody else but Jason and I was going to see him today and hopefully have time to talk.With that thought in mind, I quickly crawled out of bed and walked to my wardrobe.A frown covered my face as soon as I pulled the wardrobe open and was faced with black skirt, white shirt and black stockings.I cringed at the wardrobe that contained only maids outfit because it was a stark contrast to my luxurious walk-in closet back at home.
Placing the dress on my chest, I turned around to show it to Candice and she approved my showing me her two thumbs.Now, I can only hope it fits because Candice was a size smaller than me.“Thank you so much,” I rushed out and laid out the dress on the bed before hopping into the bathroom to take a quick shower.Once I was done and I had cleaned my body, I let my hair out of the bonnet which I had used to shield it from the water.I got back inside the room and Candice was still there.Sending her a small smile, I pulled my underwears over my body and walked up to the bed.Letting the tips of my fingers run through the soft material of the lace, a small smile played on my lips and I picked it up.I pulled the dress over my body. It was little struggle going through my hips but once I was done and zipped, I heard a small gasp and I wasn't sure whether it had come from me or Candice, who looked equally in awe.I walked to the mirror on the side of the room and took in my appearance.The
Ares' pov“Wow,” the words left my lips before I could stop them.How could anyone look so beautiful without even trying?The only bit of makeup on her face was a light colorless lipgloss.I wolf growled lowly and my pants strained as my eyes raked her body, staying longer on her fair thighs that were clad in the transparent dress, her full hips and round perky boobs that were accentuated by the dress but my eyes stayed even longer on her face.I got lost in those brown eyes of her for the umpteenth time and I didn't want to look away.“You're going with her?!” Karla screeched, breaking the trance Tabitha's beauty had thrown me into.I scowled and turned to her and my wolf growled in warning.Pellar never kiked her and she was only making things worse for herself by interfering with my mate.“Leave!” I commanded.Her lips quivered and she looked like she was about to cry but I didn't care.“You're choosing this-,” she stared at Tabitha and spat in a condescending tone. “-over me?” She
I knew coming here wasn't the best idea but I didn't realize just how terrible it was till I was here, staring into the eyes of my old nanny.She looked like she had ages ten years and her eyes were empty but she managed to give us a small smile.“Welcome, Alpha,” she bowed to Ares, who made a non-committal sound at the back of his throat in reply.She turned to me and of course the recognition and excitement that was on her face each time she saw me wasn't there and she took her eyes off me.“Right this way, please,” she motioned for us to follow her and I swallowed the lump that had formed at the back of my throat and willed my feet to move.“If you're going to puke, don't do it here,” Ares warned firmly in my ear and I could only imagine the expression on my face.I closed my eyes tightly for a second before opening it again and sending him a sarcastic smile but that didn't last long and I turned back to the house that now looked unfamiliar from the house I'd called home for the pa
My dad looked very lost, like he didn't believe what was going on. He would occasionally wipe the corners of his eyes with his handkerchief subtly but I caught on each time.Galia had her head on his shoulder with huge glasses that covered half of her face and I could only imagine how devasted she would look behind them.Jason had a neutral expression but I knew better than anyone else that he was trying really hard to keep it all together.He hated showing vulnerability and I don't think I'd ever seen him cry in our five years relationship but I knew how much all of this was killing him inside. We literally had our whole lives planned out only for it to be cut short this way.A white handkerchief came into my view and when I traced it to the hand that held it, I was met with Ares' poker face.He held it closer, urging me to take it and that was when I realized I had been crying.I hated this.I hated showing weakness especially not in front of someone like Ares but now, he had seen m
