The Alpha’s Lottery Wife 82
RAINI A heart crisis.Still dressed in a yellow floral dress on a floppy shoe, I felt my lie was enough to evade him.It was one of the hottest days of the summer so far, and already one of the windows in the room was opened as fresh air came in through the window.The wind breezed in slowly and coolly and just when I felt it might bring more calm to my heart doing great things to it …it never did, and so I never got to cool off.I was still right there thinking when the knock came, I would have thought he might have gone off but it turned out to be right there at my door.The front door opened and I saw him right there as the awareness ran from my nape down the length of my spine. I realized that I couldn't run from the man, not in his house.I had never felt more numb in front of a man than when having this conversation with Zavier Wood.It seemed he took a part of my mind and made it his, a mind control freak as you may say.Standing right there listening to him try to get the wo

ZAVIER There was no chance I’d have to make this a deal and marry her. I was so certain of that.Much as I was trying to alter the contract and treat her as a wife, she was turning me down.Most men would have taken the option and Walked away but certainly not me.I was always quick to come to conclusions and at this moment, I had two conclusions right there at the bottom of my mind. I’d come to one week with an irritatingsense of acquiescence.My phone buzzed at the wrong time, and I hated the fact it was a very important call meaning I had to leave, the result meant I wouldn't be able to come back to the conversation as I was practically up to my neck in work, While still trying to focus on on one goddamn thing and that was her —Raini.I could feel this malignant stain deep in my heart from trying to deal with her, as I was speaking on the phone,I got up, buttoned my shirt as I turned to leave.I hadn’t shown much desire in wanting to leave at first, as a matter of fact , I

ZAVIER.There was no way I was going to make such a deal with him and I made it clear from the moment he asked for power.Somehow I knew he wasn't going to let it slide like that and would be coming for my head soon especially after I had punched him right on his face.I wondered who gave him the information at first hand as he was acting as though he knew what he was talking about.Of course he knew what he asked, Diego had spoken like he had first hand information about all of this and still he refused to speak.It was Practically blasphemous, I’d learned from growing up in a Werewolf household, especially from one which had a great respect for rule's.With the weight of dirty secrets sitting heavy on my heart and the obvious fact I might have broken one of the rules, which was pathetic of me. I thought of how to fight it .Every part of me didn't welcome the fact that Diego had requested a split of power and Judging by how far I took it there is a feeling that a pathetic part of

RAINA I was done listening to them go on how sex between I and Zavier had been.The two arrived very late that day, way after Zavier left and it meant I was alone for close to four hours all by myself —The most boring time of my life.Immediately, they walked in and I saw the chuckling. I could tell that they were up to some mischievous act.Bianca was the first to start it up, walking up to me and sniffing my body as if trying to get a scent of something.I was out of the act as soon questions came from every corner of the room, each of them wanting to know what I did early that morning.At first, it was hard to convince them that I had only gone to meet him that morning and even when I had to lie nothing happened."Raini!" River grimaced. She had been trying twenty minutes straight to get me talking about what had happened.I had a smile on my face , as she was just explaining how she went up to my room and couldn't find me.The questionable look was so glaring on her face and sh

RAINI’S POVThe sun burned hot and heavy as we made our way back , all I could imagine was the recent events.My sister’s expression hardened."How in the hell did you toss that man that way, he must weigh about twice your size?" She eyed her as she spoke.It burned, not the sun this time but my heart racing deep within my heart, each heart beat that came out of me came with pain. As I could feel the memory slowly drifting away in my head.Deep down I wish I could just forget everything that happened as it triggered the dark past of something—My abduction—It was the only time that I had seen her display such art.The face of that man was still somewhere in my memory, I could still picture a face with blood splattered all over it.For a Long time the sight of that man had tortured me he could faulted but Still I can only imagine the blood was like paint—the red running down my body till…hopefully I hoped this memory would go as wellThe back of my neck prickled. Hopefully this particula

RAINI’S POVI pushed off the wall and walked toward him. Just as the call was ending , the whole atmosphere held a charge that I could feel myself absorbing into.I suddenly wondered if the feeling was merely a reaction —a chemistry between his soul and mine— or it was from the word he just said.Sinking deeper into my skin, I could feel the air was thicker to breathe in his presence.With an exhale that could be construed as anxiety, He sighed when reached where he was."Work troubles?" I asked.I could tell that he was sad letting out the news, so it was decisive of me to make this better.I said, “Well, it is not bad …you can leave if it is important.”I stood in front of him, within arms’ length. Feeling of significance rushed me in the speed of light."Really?" He asked reaching for my hands" We can have this dinner whenever you get back, you already made my night."I whispered those words as the absolute truth, in a way I loved being in his company, it was like having the att

RAINII must have been the biggest fool and it took me till eternity to come down to these terms. As much as it was hard to explain, all these facts weren't to be ignored."So are you sure of everything?"Bianca looked to be losing her grip of humor as she gazed down on me like I said the most insensitive thing."I just asked a question." I rolled my eyes."Well, you owe him an apology.""Literally.""Literally? Do you realize how silly you must have looked…That girl should be younger than River."River walked In at that same moment and looked around the room."Are you gossiping about me?""You should ask your sister about the silly act she pulled today."River walked over to where I was and took her, she sat on the couch close to the window and criss-crossed her legs while cuddling a throw pillow.Suddenly, I was the center of attention for both women to hit with words and the truth was I wasn't really a fan of that.I better stay alone than have them bash me with words that was the

ZAVIERWomen and jealousy…The cold in my veins froze to ice.Her voice cut through the drumming of blood in my ears. I stood there for what seemed like a moment staring at the three women that were talking in a voice low and smooth.She looked at me in a way I didn't quite understand, listening to her I could hear her lungs constricted, but I didn’t move a muscle as I stared at her."Can we speak in private." She said looking around again. Her heated voice vibrated against my back as her words carried a calmness with a hint ofanimosity.One second, two seconds. I stood there hesitating and not moving from the spot wondering what she wanted to tell me.My ears rang as the voices around me sank underwater. As her voice replayed in my mind, I thought of how she had reacted after seeing the lady in my penthouse.Deep down I was having divided feelings about he reaction —When one part of me had been excited, another was still angry about her reaction as numbness flooded through me."F

RAINIZavier looked at me for a minute, and it was as though he didn't believe what I just said about killing Trinity.For some reason I couldn't get over the fact that the dandelion mystery was back, in a way that looked most frustrating. Zavier had found the dandelion and came back with it, I could tell that the same person had been after me all this while.All concerns that it had been Giselle were far off from my memory since she had faced the same fate when she was found murdered in her home.Keeping all fingers crossed we had to wait just as he had said there was nothing we could do, then wait out all of this till it was over.All this would have been possible if I didn't get the anonymous call.I turned to look at Zavier who was sleeping and walked away to the bathroom to pick, perhaps I could tell what he was going to say if he listened or I wasn't sure if I could trust him enough just yet ."Hello?" I asked, filled with uncertainty."Hello." River voice came back trembling.I

ZAVIERWe spoke to the detective for more than twenty minutes giving him everything that was needed to find River, for me it wasike going through this ordeals again, the first time had been when I had to deal with Raini getting kidnapped and this was the second.Like the detective had told Bianca and myself there was definitely an insider there was no sign of anyone breaking into her apartment.Raini was obviously tired and perhaps hitting her second trimester was starting to weigh in on her as she was asleep as we walked down the hallway to her room.She was right there still asleep in her bed. I walked into her bedroom and sat in a chair close to the window near the bed.With the whole feeling complicated Iclosed my eyes and just took a moment formyself, taking in much breath as much as I could whole reflecting back on the entire situation.I haven’t had too many of these moments in the last few days, moments where I had to reflect on everything that was happening, the truth was

IRENEIt was still hard to take in and at the moment, my mind was racing at the moment.It was clearly on the wall, I couldn't miss it, not after how long I had stayed there with them. At that moment my mind was In a total mess.I stood right there with my head against his shoulder crying, perhaps if I had come in here a bit quicker I would have been able to save my sister.What I couldn't understand was why they had taken her."What did River say when she called?" He asked.I sniffed.With a shaky breath, I began to tell him about how she had called and why she had left in the first place.I explained why I didn't call him before leaving and everything from how I had felt angry when I got here and found nothing but the house in total mess.There was a lot to talk about and he listened to every bit of it. All I wanted to do was get rid of everything in my chest and get everything out in the open. I didn't hold anything back from him as I felt weak …Too weak." Why did they take her?"

IRENEI drove out of the car park as quickly as I could all that filled my mind while driving past the oak trees that surrounded the thick wood shrouding Zavier's home was the safety for my sister, the thought was heavy on my mind as the more I thought about it, the harder it was for me to comprehend.At the back of my mind was the question asking why she had spoken in such a haste, there was a sound of silence before ending the call and despite trying to get her it was certainly difficult to.I thought about calling Zavier but opted against it in my mind as I continued with my trip…The speed I was driving at was so much that it took the thought of the twins I was carrying to make us reduce the speed.As I drove out of the gates and as I did,II spent the next few hours trying to purge Zavier out of my mind, so I replaced it with other thoughts.Or at least my thought was replaced by the thought of my sister River.I purposely looked at my phone again,keeping her call on redial w

ZAVIER.“Stupid move today, man.” Bianca said to me as she sat on my office couch while looking at my face.She was looking at me,in a manner that seemed so complicated."Where did you say she went to again?" I asked since she was the only one that had been with her all this while.I flicked a glance toward her since she had been the only one with her when she had gone out.We were having a good conversation about how my time with Raini had gone.I rubbed a hand across my smile. “I just assumed that she would want to talk to me after what she did."“You assumed wrong,” she said dryly. “She is a woman, she doesn't care about all of this.""You all are complicated." I said, rolling my eyes.Bianca looked at me laughing "With all the shit you’ve done, and the fact that you lied it would be hard for her to trust you again."I sank a little further into the couch.“Everything I do is premeditated. I think about it —You don't expect that I will not tell her about all of this" I said look

RAINITwo quiet knocks sounded on the door, and I walked toward the door to get it opened.From the conversation I had with Bianca it was obvious I had to talk with him. I had been thinking about going to his room but didn't really have the confidence just before the knock came in.When I saw it was Zavier standing on the other side, I stood straighter at the doorway looking into his eyes.With his hair combed back, in a casual shirt and Jean, his countenance appeared welcoming and breathtaking at the same time.His eyes held my stare as I looked at him, in a way it looked as though it was filledwith cold resonance—perhaps he was still angry about what I had said earlier."Are you busy?" He asked."Yeah, not doing anything now." .Every synapses in my body raced as I stood back and watched him as he walked in.My eyes widened on him. As he walked Into the room making way to the window,he stood right there and looked out of the window.Shutting the door, I sighed deeply as I walke

RAINIBianca wasn't the first to warn me about the woman and now that it made two people tell me, it felt like the universe was screaming out something and I would be a fool not to listen.Trinity made her way back. There was an exchange between the two women as it looked as though she had heard something that was being saidIt looked not too certain that she must have heard her as if in a kind of distance."I have to leave, there is something I have to do."I merely nodded my head as I thought it was better she did before any altercations started up.I never expected that they would get along, Trinity never got along with anyone except me and I guessed it had something to do with me seeing the best in people.I walked with her to the door and after closing it behind her, I turned and smirked at Bianca."What?" She shrugged. "I am just telling you the truth. " You should really look into that girl."I sighed and fell back in my seat. I’d been excited about having her over but it look

RAINI-Everything was building up inside of me and I didn’t know the best way to make myself feel better than to cry.I felt so disappointed in myself for not being as strong as I thought I should be but there was nothing I could do.I wanted the best for my children and the fear that something might happen to them made me lose faith IN myself.I started sobbing, sitting up on the bed because the tears were not just coming, I felt Indulged and very weak to have to break down because of something like this.This wasn’t minor, this was my unborn kids and I was already failing as a mother and even before they were born.Just then I heard a knock on the door interrupting me and I immediately wiped off my tears.I wondered if my tears woke up someone but I didn’t think I was sobbing that loud.“It’s me bianca, I know you’re awake, Raini opens the door.” She said gently from the other side of the door.I stood up and walked over to the door and opened the door for her and she walked in.“Co

RAINI“Is there anything you can do to help me make sure they will be safe?” I asked in a shaky voice.My babies, how could they be in danger when they aren’t even in the world yet?“There is nothing. After using the drugs I think it should all go well but I can’t say.” The doctor said picking up her documents and ready to leave the ward.My heart shattered, I didn't know how I was supposed to react to something like this and why things have to get this complicated for me.I was managing to do everything and being my best for my unborn children but everything seemed to be fine till Zavier came back into our lives.“Are you sure there’s no expensive treatment we can use to make sure they would be safe? You can’t just put us on hold.” Zavier finally said walking ahead to the doctor:I didn’t know how I was supposed to feel about all of this but I knew for certain that any money from now I was going to flare out.“No, at this point after getting the drugs, there is nothing that we can do
