Nova’s POV"Why have you been avoiding me, Nova?” He asks his tune dead serious, but the seriousness that lingers in his tune is evident.It made me grow numb. I didn’t have a valid reason to avoid him, yet I felt bad, seeing the glint of sadness peak over his face.It was hard to ignore.I looked away, avoiding his gaze, but he held me back, cupping on my cheek."How do you feel about me, Alexandra?” I asked, wanting to ease the tension that was brewing within me.I was a step away from telling him how I felt about him. "What do you mean, Nova?” He asks.I remain mute, unsure of what to say or how to express my emotions without looking dumb.I hated being put in this sort of situation, but my feelings for Alexandra were intensifying day by day."How do you feel about me? What am I to you?” I ask, my voice cracking.He breathes out, lifting my chin. “Look at me, Novs., what do you see?” He asks.I shrug, unsure of how to respond to that."You have no idea how much peace you’ve brough
Nova’s POVHe placed me down on the floor as our kiss broke."Get down, princess,” he orders, his eyes never leaving mine. I felt more intense and turned on as I kneeled to the ground, licking my lips with a smirk and tugging at the corner.I love the effect I have on him. "Yes, Alpha,” I say obediently. I teased, knowing how much he gets turned on by that.His eyes flashed with adoration and lust. Without another word, he guided me further down to my knee, his hot palm igniting a hot trill.His zipper came down almost quickly, and he pulled himself free—thick, heavy, flushed with heat, already slick with pre-cum that glistened in the low light. His cock was hard and angry, the tip swollen and throbbing like it had a mind of its own. He wrapped a fist around his length, stroking it slowly, his other hand tangling in my hair to pull me closer. I could feel his heat and smell the raw, heady musk of him—a scent that crawled inside me and curled around my brain like smoke."Fuck princess…

Nova’s POV“We’re going to get late for work,” I whined, trying to pull out from Alexandra’s firm grip.He shrugs. “So what? We’re not going to get fired; may I need to remind you who the boss is?” He defends.I could feel his hardness rub at my stomach, and I didn't need to be told that he wanted to go for another round before we left for work, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't turned on too.I smiled mischievously, moving on top of him. He grunts as my wetness gets in contact with his hardness.He sat up gripping on my waist as I moved slowly, my breasts jiggling, liking the way he was admiring my physique with his eyes.He reached for a bud pushing on it, and my head fell back.“Ugnh… Since you are the boss, then we may as well have some,” I state, a sly smile dangling on my lips.“Fuck baby… Yes, you look so fucking beautiful,” he states, pulling me for a kiss.He bit on my lower lip, his grip on my waist tightening, moving me a little bit faster.Our tongues were at battle
Nova’s POV I sat at my desk, trying to focus on work. The door swung open, and Bryan walked in, unannounced. "Bryan, what do you want?" I asked, irritation creeping into my voice. I couldn’t believe that Bryan was Alexandra’s Nephew. It Seeing Bryan has not reminded me of the past I have been trying to move into, but rather the memories of what we once shared came rushing down to me like a wave of nostalgia. And now with Bryan here, I don't exactly know how I feel about it. "Nova, we need to talk," he said, his eyes locked on mine. "We have nothing to talk about, Bryan. Please leave," I said firmly, even though my emotions were beginning to get the better of me. But Bryan didn't budge. "I know about you and Uncle Alexandra," he said, his tone accusatory. My eyes narrowed. "What about us?" "It's impossible," Bryan said, shaking his head. "You can't be married to him. It's not possible." My anger flared. "And why should you care?" I spat. "You rejected me, Bryan. You made
Nova’s POVI stormed out of the office, my heart racing. Seeing Emily with Alexandra, helping him with his tie, was too much. I knew Emily's motives weren't innocent.Especially since she had made it clear to me the other day that she was after him, I should have seen her coming.I should have had her fired even though that wouldn’t be fair, but anyone standing in the way of my happiness shouldn’t remain.Anger and jealousy burnt within me. How could Alexandra not see through her?Or was he also infatuated by her, just like she is with him?But he loves me; he said it himself; he couldn’t possibly be giving her any attention. *Calm down, she was only helping him* My wolf gruntsSee, this is why I said she was never with Mez.I rushed down the hallway, blinded by tears. I don't know if it was the fact that Bryan was back and he is Alexandra’s Nephew or the fact that as.Suddenly, I collided with Bryan."Nova, wait!" Bryan exclaimed, grasping my arms.I shook him off. "Leave me alone,
Alexandra’s POVI sat at my desk, buried under paperwork. My meeting was in 10 minutes. I kept running my gaze around the wall clock here and there so as not to get too engrossed.My mind suddenly wandered to Nova. Her smile crept into my thoughts, and I couldn't help but smile too. God! That woman would be the end of me. She made me feel the way I have never felt before—so real and compassionate. With Nova, everything is different—her smile, her laugh, the way she turns me on and satisfies me. God, it made me want to have her all to myself, all the time.I was glad I'd told her I loved her. God, I couldn't do without my mate; the taste of her was ecstasy, one I wouldn’t bother drowning myself in all the time.Just thinking about her made me feel alive. My wolf grunted, and I scoffed.Who would have thought that whole me could be a lover boy, or man rather?How ironic.I stood up, straightening my tie as the clock ticked.Time for my meeting.Perfect timing.Emily, my new employe
Nova’s POVI sensed Alexandra's footsteps approaching the room. My heart racing, I rushed to lock the door.I know he’d get mad, but right now I needed space away from him. Away from both of them.The reality was crashing down on me, and it was too heavy to weigh on my shoulder. Bryan’s presence has not only reminded me of my past scars but also of how much of an undeserving weakling I am.It makes me question why I was ever mated to an Alpha. Did Alexandra have to be punished by having me as his mate?I am an enigma, one that couldn’t control her powers. I could feel the tension within me rising.But I bit on my lower lip, trying to bite on my lower lip.Just in time.As the lock clicked, our mind link started.*Nova, open the door.* Alexandra's deep voice resonated in my mind.I couldn't hold back. Sobs wracked my body.*Why should I?* I replied, tears streaming down my face.*Nova, what's wrong? Open this door, we need to talk about what happened* Alexandra's concern filtered throu
Lily’s POVI walk back into the school building, feeling conflicted and turned on at the same time. My heart is hammering in my chest as I think about those heated moments with Noah a while ago.I was still in shock, and I felt stupid at the same time; the way my body reacts to Noah is alarming, and I hated it.I try to shake off the feelings, but I can't. I feel like I'm in a daze, like I'm walking around in a dream.He was using me, and even though I was letting him, it made me feel stupid.He made it clear he doesn’t want me, and just when things are getting cool with Asher, he steps in and acts like he owns me. As I turn a corner, I bump into Asher. He's standing by his locker, with his eyes narrowed at me."Hey!Is everything okay?" he asks, eyeing me carefully.I nod, trying to play it cool as I bite my bottom lip, trying so hard to fight back the tears that threatened to spill. "Yeah, everything's fine."But Asher doesn't look convinced. "You sure? You look a little...off."Of

Lily’s POV I walk into the cafeteria with Anna, scanning the room for our usual spot. We're about to sit down when Asher steps up with a smile that never makes my heart skip a beat. "Hey, Lily, you're going to sit with us today," he says, taking the tray of food from me. I raise an eyebrow, taken aback. "Uh, I don't know, Asher. Anna and I were just about to—"He didn’t let me finish, “Sorry Anna, I will be stealing her away for today; I hope you don’t mind,” he asked. I shared a knowing look with Anna hoping she’d say no, but she only wiggled her brows at me with a mischievous smile dancing on her lips. “Of course you can; that won’t be a problem,” she responds. “Asher, but—“He beats me to it: “No buts; your friend already said yes, and if she doesn’t have a problem, you shouldn’t either. Please just come with me.” I try to protest, but Asher takes my arm and guides me toward the table where the rest of the guys are sitting. Noah, Liam, and Damien are all present.
Lily’s POV I was in my room alone a while ago when Maya stepped in and asked me to help her with her homework. We're working on a math problem, and Maya is struggling to understand it. I'm trying to explain it to her in a way that makes sense. I can see that hating math runs in the family blood because it is the same subject Noah has a problem with, but he is getting the hang of it now. I guess. Just as Maya is starting to get it, Noah walks into the room. "Hey, Maya, can I talk to Lily for a minute?" he asks. Maya looks up at me. Her brows furrowed in confusion because she was aware that Noah and I don’t get along so well; she looked a bit confused. But I nod. "It's okay, Maya. I'll be right back." But before Maya can get up, Noah says, "No, Maya, I mean you should excuse us and go to your room, he asks impatiently.Whatever it was he wanted to discuss could wait; right now I was helping Maya, and I didn’t want to be interrupted, or should I say, I wanted to use her as
Lily’s POVIt's been a week since that heated session with Noah. I still get tingling at the thought of it; I didn’t miss any chance I got to avoid Noah.And I could say I was doing a very good job. On the other hand, Asher and I were building a mutual understanding kind of relationship even though I asked him to take things slow, but so far I like him.I won’t say love, but like rather, he was better than Noah.Nicer, you mean... my instinct protests.Yeah! Whatever.I'm in the kitchen with Aunt Jess, making breakfast. She's scrambling eggs while I'm toasting bread.Aunt Jess turns to me and asks, "So Lily, how's school going? How has Seattle been treating you?" "It's going okay, Aunt Jess," I reply, trying to sound casual as though I wasn’t reminiscing about my heated moment with her son.Gosh! Aunt Jess smiles and says, "That's great, sweetie. I'm glad to hear that. Just then, Noah walks into the kitchen, shirtless and wearing only sweatpants. I feel my face heat up as I try
Lily’s POVI stood in front of the mirror, adjusting my outfit for what felt like the hundredth time. I was wearing a pair of dark-wash jeans, a white shirt, and a black jacket.I didn’t want to overdress; I just wanted to wear something casual and comfortable, and this was what I could find. This is a friendly date, nothing more. looked good, I checked my phone for what felt like the hundredth time, waiting for Asher's call. The only reason I agreed to this date is because I wanted to provoke Noah. I wanted him to know that he didn’t have a say in my life. My thoughts come short when the door bursts open, revealing a tempered scowl on his face. "What is it, Noah?" I asked, trying to sound casual. "You're not going anywhere," Noah said, his voice firm.I raised an eyebrow, feeling a surge of annoyance. "What are you talking about?" I asked. "You're not going on a date with Asher," Noah said, his eyes flashing with anger. I laughed at his audacity. "You have no ri
Hello everyone! For everyone that supported this book, I’d like to say a big thank you. I would like you to drop a honest review with regards to this book, it will mean a lot to me.
Lily’s POV I walked into school, still feeling the lingering effects of my heated argument with Noah last night. I hiss at the thought. He had no right to do what he did or say that. I was still fuming about it. I didn't understand why Noah couldn't just leave me alone. He doesn’t want me. He made that clear, so what the hell does he want with me? As I walked down the hallway, I bumped into Tiffany. Oh no! Not today. I wasn’t in the mood for her nonsense, but Tiffany never got the message. She was standing with her squad, looking like she owned the place. "Well, well, well, look what we have here," Tiffany said, raising an eyebrow at me. "If it isn't little Lily, the housemaid." I felt a surge of annoyance at her tone, but I tried to ignore her. ", Tiffany, please, not today. I am not in the mood for this. I tried to walk past her, but she restricted my movement. I groaned. Tiffany wasn't having it. "Listen, Lily, I need to warn you," she said, her voice d
Lily’s POV I walked to the section of the house where Noah lived, feeling uneasy. I had agreed to tutor him, but I wasn't sure if I was ready for this. If I had a choice, I’d be in my room cuddled up and reading one of Catherina Maura’s books, daydreaming about my prince charming. Yet here I was, trapped with a godforsaken arsehole that didn’t deserve my time. As I approached the door, I expected to hear a few noises, yet the place sounded like a cemetery, almost like there was no living creature, but I could pick up Noah’s scent. I took a deep breath and knocked on the door. The door opened shortly, and I was graced with the sight of Noah standing before me, shirtless and wearing only a pair of sweatpants. I felt my eyes widen as I took in the sight of his chiseled chest and abs. I couldn't help but stare. Noah raised an eyebrow, a smirk spreading across his face. "You like what you see?" he asked, his voice low and husky. I felt my face heat up with embarrassment, and I q
