Kelsey lifted her fingers weakly but Denis was too sleep derived to see it. Moments later she moved it again, he saw it. He felt a rush of emotions, mostly relief. He ran to the water dispenser to get her a cup of water, that was the only thing he could think of. He helped her lift her head slowly and brought the cup to her mouth.“Where am I?” She asked, her voice barely audible after sipping just a little out of the water Denis brought to her.“You’re in a hospital.” Denis replied softly crouching next to her. “Hospital?” Kelsey asked surprised, she clearly has no memory of what happened. “Yes, don’t you remember?” Kelsey squinted her eyes trying to remember what happened but all she got out of it was a bad migraine.Peter was awoken by all the whispering. When his eyes flickered open and he saw Kelsey sitting up, he thought it was a dream. He rubbed the sleep out of his eyes with two fist like a five year old but she was still there, sitting up.“Peter she’s really awake, you’r
“Very well then Alpha Denis, you’re excused.”“I hope that this whole situation is taken care of before the end of today.” Denis said standing up from the settee meant for four people but Peter was the only one seated next to him. He put hands in his side pockets and strutted out of the hall, not entirely satisfied with the little punishment they got but not displeased with it either.“They deserve way more punishment than they got.” Peter complained immediately they stepped out of the hall.“I know.” Denis answered without looking at him. “Well, aren’t you going to do anything about it?”“I'm just happy Kelsey's okay, let’s leave this one to karma.”“I'm happy Kelsey is okay too but since when do you leave things to karma?” Peter asked throwing his head back in surprise, he's been seeing different sides of his brother that he’s never seen before since the arrival of Kelsey.“Was Kelsey awake when you left this morning?” Peter asked changing the topic.“No, but I asked one of the nur
A week has passed since Kelsey's return and she was now fully settled in. She was no longer on medications but Denis didn’t let her skip any meal. He even made a time table that he put on her room walls so now every time she wakes up, the first thing she sees is a sheet of paper that reminds her when to eat. How romantic.She’s had nothing much to do since she got back, exams were over so school was not in the picture. Luckily, Peter made it his duty to always visit Kelsey every day. “Its me again!!” Peter yelled ceremoniously as he entered the house.“Don’t you know how to knock?” Denisglared at him and turn to face what he was doing. He was making breakfast, scrambled eggs for himself and Kelsey. “Knocking is for visitors.” Peter said and made himself comfortable on the couch, the couch practically swallowed him, Kate picked it out, it’s so easy to fall asleep on. Imagine doing a work meeting and being offered a couch like this, you’re bound to fall asleep.“You don’t live here, t
Even the ground beneath Denis’ feet felt his rage, the way he stomped on the grass as he walked was merciless, If the ground was a person— he'd probably be dead already.He's had enough of Kelsey and Peter, why does he even care? He’s just her fake mate, not her real mate. For all he knows, Peter could be her real mate, he wouldn’t want to hinder their “union” from happening.He's too pissed to even drive and he's definitely going to drink a lot, so there’s no use taking the car. He stepped out of the building and called a Lyft. The Lyft arrived after what seemed to Denis like an eternity but was actually just a few minutes, Denis entered the car and slammed the door shocking the driver. The driver opened his mouth to talk but his eyes caught Denis' glare from the rear view mirror and he kept quiet.During the ride, he tried to make small talk with Denis but all he got in response was deafening silence. He turned on the stereo to rid the car of the silence but turned it off when he c
Kelsey couldn’t stop the tears from falling, she let them fall freely. Denis thinks she’s sleeping with Peter? And he doesn’t even care? She should be happy that he doesn’t care anymore, at least now she gets to hang out with Peter but why does is it hurt? Even more than the fact that he thinks she’s sleeping with Peter?Does she want him to care? A shrill knock interrupted her thoughts, she knows who it is. They don’t get many visitors around here and only one person knocks like that.She uses the sleeve of her cloth to dry her face, peel herself off the couch and head for the door, she twists the knob and unveils a fully glamourized Janet. Hair, make-up, shoes, bag, everything was on point, like she was coming from a party or a date.“Heyy girl, I just thought I’d drip by, it’s been a minute. I hope I’m not interrupting anything?” She wiggled her brows at Kelseyand giggled. Kelsey fought to hold the tears back but she couldn’t. Janet just had to remind her of Denis. She doesn’t bla
Denis put down his drink and scurried out of the bar.“We’re good friends.”~~~ said to ~~~.He opened the door and saw Kelsey sprawled on the floor clutching onto a bag of chips, his eyes drifted to thee empty bottles of bourbon on the floor, he didn’t need a soothsayer to tell him that she’s had too much to drink.She threw the bag of chips in the air and mumbled “I hate you Denis.” Was she awake? Can she tell he’s here? He crouched next to her to check but she was sound asleep.He smiled. “I hate you too Kelsey.” He would love to sit next to her and listen to her mumbles the entire night but the place was a mess and one of them has to clean it. He gathered her in his arms and took her upstairs to her room and comes back to clean the place.The next morning, Kelsey wakes up with an astonishingly bad hangover. She looks around at the familiar walls of her room but doesn’t remember how she got there. She drags herself out of bed and opens the curtains, the light almost blinds her, she
“Thank you, you won’t regret this.” “I better not.” Kelsey said half smiling and half serious.“I promise, if you still don’t forgive me after this then you can leave.” Should she tell him that she already forgave him? No, she’d rather not, she wants to see what thing it is that he has up his sleeve that is making him so confident that he was going to be forgiven.“Fine.”“Thank you.” He meant it.Denis scurried out of the house like squirrel and Kelsey couldn’t help but blush. She went upstairs to her room, she only has a few hours left to prepare and she doesn’t even know where to begin. Her hair is a hot mess, unlike most girls, she can’t do her own make-up, she doesn’t have the slightest idea on how to combine colors and not come out looking like a clown, if she wants to have a shot at looking presentable, she had better start now.She reached for her phone that was lying at the far end of her bed and dialed Janet's number. Janet is the queen of fashion and handling emergency s
She’d always known she was pretty but right now, the entire world was about to know it too. Alice picked out a short pink gown with way too many openings that made it look likean unfinished work of a crappy tailor.“I’m supposed to go out in this? Kelsey asked trying her best not to sound like a nun or offend Alice. “On purpose?”“Don’t give me that look, you’ll look amazing in this dress.” Alice retorted.“It’s barely even a dress, Alice, look how many holes it has.”“Fine, would you prefer this then?” She asked dangling a shiny royal blue dress in Kelsey’s face.“Why didn’t you lead with this?” Kelsey said admiring the dress, she took it from her and rushed upstairs to try it on.“You have to be kidding me?!” Alice yelled after her but she heard the click sound of the door locking behind Kelsey.It was the click sound again, Kelsey was out of her room, everyone turned in the direction of the stairs, curios to see what she looks like in the dress, it was like awaiting Cinderella. Kel
