Kayla’s POV "I have begged you. Please, don't do this. Chloe is my only friend. If I don't get to keep her, who am I supposed to keep around me?" "First Lady," he said coldly. "I know you two are friends." "Hmm," I exhaled tiredly. "First Lady is like a mother to me in the world of strippers. Not only that, but she's way older. She's someone I can relate to more than I can with a friend. Chloe is around my age. Don't deny me this luxury, please." He went mute again for a while. He looked around as if searching for his next words, his next condition to keep me from going. "Then, I'm coming with you." My eyes dilated in surprise. He would come with me. But he had a party to attend. Why would he want to miss out on his welcoming party? "You want to come with me," I said in a surprised tone. "But you have a party to attend tonight. It's your welcoming party." He flipped out his phone and placed a call. "Hello, terminate the event tonight. Let it be tomorrow night. Th
KAYLA'S POVThe next day, I was still in a pool of my thoughts. There was no way I could forget all that Chloe had said to me the previous night. She would not just have said that out of the ordinary. Everyone around seemed to be holding one or two secrets. It was the First Lady who started by saying some strange things to me. Her words still echoed in my head. "You must remember who you are.."The fact that my mother had those words too in her mouth at the point of her death rang a bell in my head. I always wondered who she was and she knew about me. It was just that the opportunity to ask the questions in my head never came through. And now, there's Chloe added to the equation. She might have been high on pills and alcohol, but it still didn't change the fact that people tend to speak truthfully when drunk. What was it that made her anxious the moment I mentioned that the Alpha had marked me? I had to figure it out. I grabbed my phone and dialed her contact. One ring… two rings…t
Kayla’s POV"You said something about staying away from Alpha Zeus Ludendorff. If my memory serves me correctly, you said something like this.." I paused and processed her words in my head. "Something is coming, Elena. If you want to preserve your life, keep your distance from Alpha Zeus Ludendorff… yes! That's how you put it." "Are.. you sure…about this?" I heard her ask. Was it that she truly could not recall her own words due to alcohol? Or could she be feigning not having any idea of this? "Come on, Chloe," I said and started to pace. "Don't make me look stupid. I know what I'm saying here. I clearly remember it. There is no way for me to have forgotten something that serious." "Ugh. I really can't recall, you see. I think I was just saying gibberish. It must have been the influence of the call." It was obvious to me. She had no intention of letting me know the truth. All through the night, the thoughts could not escape my mind. Knowing how Chloe could be, her acting this way
KAYLA'S POVA couple of moments later, I dressed up and walked out of the house. The cars were already lined up, waiting for me. As I stepped out, one of the men opened the door to the car Alpha Zeus Ludendorff was staying in. "Get in already," he said to me. It was a matter of time before we started leaving his premises. While we were on the road, my head could not stop revolving around the very questions that I needed answers to. I looked at him from time to time, but he was just not interested in any sort of talk with me. He knows that if he were to ask me what the problem was, I would go ahead to ask the questions I asked him earlier on. I cleared my throat. *Alpha Zeus Ludendorff." He threw a glance at me and said nothing. He ignored me this time. But I was not going to swallow down my curiosity. If I could not get the answers to the questions, I would not be able to have my peace. If there was danger lurking around him, I had to figure it out. The fact that he was training f
KAYLAWe headed to another section. I was in awe as we got in there. I could not absorb the possible number of shoes arranged around the shelves there. A set of red shoes was selected and tried differently on me. After that, we were done with everything. I was then led to a little relaxation room with three couches. I was made to sit with both legs crossed properly. A set of pictures were taken before the manager walked out. I had no idea what else they had in mind but I simply had to remain there till their next plan hatched. The curtain slid open and Alpha Zeus Ludendorff walked in. His face was bent down to his phone. He was lost in whatever he was doing. "Alpha Zeus Ludendorff," the manager said beside him, "we are done with the first round." First round? I was surprised to hear that. They took all the time in the world just for a first round. How many more times did they want to do this? I was tired of it. "Yeah," the Alpha said as he raised his head. "I will have to—" his re
KAYLA'S POVI could not bring myself to embrace the reality that what I took so casually was actually of so much value. In the hotel, after the first-night incident, I only took the bracelet because I felt it was the only thing he had that didn't possess any serious value. I could not have gone for his watch which looked crazily expensive. Besides, I didn't want to be regarded as a thief. I simply loved the simple nature of the bracelet and decided to take it with me. It was supposed to be something to hold on to. After losing my virginity to a person I knew absolutely nothing about, it was only okay for me to want something that I could hold on to to always remind me of my first night. They say the first nights were always memorable. I guess it was. "Turn around," I said in a nervous tone. Maxwell turned his head to look at me. "Turn around? You mean I should look at you." Damn it! I had no time for questions and answers. "Turn the car around." He exhaled heavily. "I'm sorry, b
KaylaMy mind flashed to the dress I tested back there. That had to be the first time I saw my true beauty. The reaction of Alpha Zeus Ludendorff was etched perfectly in my head. I had no idea when a cute smile crossed my lips. "Mmm… I can see someone no longer hates Alpha Zeus Ludendorff." I chuckled. After having to stay a while with him, I finally got to understand a little about the Alpha. He didn't seem so awful, after all. He just seemed to be into himself that he was unable to express his true emotions at all times. "Speaking about the Alpha, that's the reason I'm here," I said with a hint of seriousness in my tone. She cleared her throat. "You are here for Alpha Zeus Ludendorff. Is there a problem? Are you guys having issues?" I shook my head. "Not at all. I have questions that I need answers to right now." She clasped her hands over the table. "What is it you want to know?" "You knew what the bracelet meant to him all along. But you never made mention of it to me at al
KAYLA'S POVI sat in front of the mirror with both eyes straightly fixed on the beautiful specimen staring back at me in the mirror. I was getting ready for the pack event to be held tonight. The lady who had attended to me back there at the fashion store was right in my room with her hands all over my hair. She twined the hair around and rolled it up into a beautiful ponytail above embroidered with a couple shiny gold jewelleries."Ma'am, you are good to go," she said to me with a broad grin on her face. I could see her look of satisfaction through the mirror. "Can I stand?" I asked gently. "Oh yes, you can. Take a look at yourself, please." I gently got up. The hourglass red gown was without any sort of doubt the most fashionable thing I have put on in my entire life. The grin of satisfaction crossed my lips. I was wondering if Alpha Zeus Ludendorff would see me and react the exact way he did back there at the fashion store. "Do you like it?" I heard her ask. I eyed her and let
ALPHA ZEUS' POVKayla? Why would he want to talk about her? I felt my hand almost slipping away from his collar. But my curiosity kicked in. I grabbed him tightly again. "What do you mean to say?" I queried in a thick tone. I hated the fact he even mentioned her name. "I can't talk if you keep acting this way. Everyone will think we are about to have a fight, Zeus." "I don't give a damn what anyone thinks. I just need to hear what you have to say." "Hmm," he exhaled heavily. "Get your hands off me first. Then, I will say what I have to say." I glared into his eyes for a good while before letting go of his collar. "Please, have a seat," he said and settled down. I hesitantly did the same thing. I was on edge. All I needed was to hear the reason for which he had to mention her name. "I'm listening," I said. "Spill everything you have to say." "Do you want a drink?" He asked. I shut my eyes and opened it. A new flash of anger was in them. "Are you just going to beat about the b
ALPHA ZEUS' POVMy eyes were grim and rusty from the anger that boiled in my body. I sat in the back of my black SUV with an expression that screamed a great deal of impatience. I stole a glance at the screen of my watch. It was already about fifteen minutes before it was eight. "Get this shit going faster!" I yelled at the driver. "Sorry, Alpha," he said in a fearful tone. "I'm already speeding more than necessary for safety." I smirked at him. "Are you trying to school me here?" I asked in a thick tone. "I'm sorry. I won't do it again." In that instant, he got the wheels rolling faster. I winded down the glass and had the fast blowing breeze brush against my contorted face. I was boiling and greatly needed a way to cool off. I shut my eyes and tried to coop off. But it was not working out. The moment I shut my eyes, other strange thoughts started to go through my head. What could they have talked about? I could not stop wondering what Maicon had been saying to Kayla that made
ALPHA ZEUS' POVI was pacing quietly in my room when my eyes caught something in the premises. I paused my movement and drew close enough to the window. Then, I saw it clearly. The very reason for which I was pacing was just there. Damn it! Kayla was driving me crazy. She defied my orders. I was very direct when I warned her not to have anything to do with Maicon. But she would not listen. She was obviously bent on driving me to the end of my limits. What was Maicon looking for? What did he want with her? My thoughts could not stop running wild. I was ready to face whatever package Maicon returned with. I was waiting for him to make the move once again. Only then would it be justifiable for me to attack him. But with Kayla in the picture, my jealousy was getting the better side of me. I thought of going down there and drag her all the way up to my room and have her warned again. But I could not make the move. I just could not do that. Maicon was obviously trying to get into her head.
KAYLA'S POVMaicon, without a doubt, acted like he was some kind of devil on his own. The way he showed up was always baffling. I was in shock again, just like the time he stood before me two days ago. "Hello, Kayla," he said with a familiar grin. "Good morning." "Good..good morning," I reciprocated his greeting. I was disoriented and needed to get my composure back. "Kayla, who's there?" I heard First Lady ask me. "Is everything okay?" "It appears you are with someone," Maicon said calmly. "Am I interrupting?" "Kayla, who's it?" First Lady asked as she pulled the door open wide enough. "Oh my… Maicon," she said and giggled half-heartedly. "Hello, First Lady," he said. "How long has it been since I saw you?""That should be a couple of days ago, at the event," First Lady replied. Maicon scoffed. "Well, the last I remember is kind of more awkward. It was not so pleasant. Do you remember?" I could sense the atmosphere of the place getting stirred up. First Lady appeared to know
KAYLA'S POVFor the next two days, I could not find the appetite to eat properly. I was always locked up in my room doing just one thing. And that was to cry as much as I could. I simply wanted to cry my heart out. It was hurtful. The more I tried to endure, the more the tears flowed. I could not help it. Even after I got rejected by Diego, it didn't hurt so badly. But somehow, it hurt so terribly that I wondered if I was going to live through it. Despite everything Alpha Zeus Ludendorff was doing to me, I still had the growing urge to love him more. I was helpless. Hating him was not possible. I already tried that. I got up from my bed and walked to the mirror. I was already a shadow of myself. My eyes were all swollen. Anyone who saw me would definitely know that I had cried my entire being out. Nothing was left. Yet, the attraction I felt towards him did not fade away. I asked myself why a couple of times. It made no sense. The Alpha showed me nothing but his mean side always. Wa
ALPHA ZEUS' POVI was angry and scared at the same time. Seeing my brother sitting that close to Kayla got me very angry. I was concerned for her safety. Perhaps, it was beyond just being concerned about her safety. I clearly saw a glimpse of smile and joy on her face the very moment we got here. That was something she never really gave to me. With Maicon, she seemed to be relaxed. And that was frustrating for me. At first, when I heard she left the premises, I felt bad. My fears were yet to kick in. But on knowing that it was Maicon who had made my men go against the clear orders which I had given to them, my anxieties creeped up to my throat. He obviously pulled that off so he would be able to approach her closely outside my watch. Damn it!"Hello, brother," Maicon said and got up to his feet. "I was not speaking to you!" I replied to his gesture in a fiery tone. "Come on, Zeus," he said. "you don't have to be on edge. Calm your nerves." What? Calm my nerves? Why was he acting to
KAYLA'S POVIt felt as if time had come to a sudden pause. My phone was still glued to my ear but my eyes were fixed on the devil standing in front of me. Maicon! What was he doing here? Could he have followed me all the way to this place? The thoughts of everything started running through my mind all at the same time again. The rear was that he would come for me the very moment he returned. But wait! That would only be the case if he was the guy I practiced my seduction test on. But if it was not him,why would he care to get involved in my affairs?"Kayla," the voice of Chloe called me through the phone. "Kayla. Kayla." I was lost. I could not even speak. I was just looking at him as if I had seen a ghost. "Kayla, are you there?" Chloe asked again. A smile crossed the lips of Maicon. "Are you not going to respond to her?" He asked me. He was talking about Chloe. Oh yeah! I literally forgot that he was a wolf and had his way of hearing the faintest sounds. I became even more scare
KAYLA'S POVI was transfixed at a spot. It felt as if I had been injected with a paralysis poison. I fought hard to see if it was a mere dream. Who knows, I might just be sleepwalking. It was not real. It didn't have to be. Alpha Zeus Ludendorff flashed his eyes at me. Those deep eyes of his seemed to be staring right into my soul. He was not bothered by my presence."Alpha… Alpha Zeus Ludendorff," I said in a shaky tone. He said nothing. He simply pulled out of the whore and pushed his cock into his tight boxers. Then, he turned to me. For a while, I forgot that I was in shock of what I saw. My eyes at that point were glued on the cock that seemed to be desperately fighting to escape the prison of the boxers. The tip was visible through the corner. It was that long. "What are you doing here?" He asked me in a firm tone. "And why didn't you knock , at least?" Hearing him speak, I was drawn back to my reality. The lady he was with curled herself and looked at me in a manner that cle
KAYLA'S POVThe next morning, I was still not able to get a hold of myself. Everything seemed to be working desperately against me. I could not get my mind off the reason for which Diego pulled off the stunt that he pulled last night. I was restless. Alpha Zeus Ludendorff did not have to see something like that. He could have simply taken a little more time to barge in. By then, I would have pushed the bastard son of a bitch away from me. Everything seemed planned to me. It was not a coincidence that he was there. How did he even get to know about the welcoming party that was to take place? Besides, that place was the hidden venue of the darkest moon pack— a place that was kept sacred from the touches of modern civilization for many years. But somehow, he got to be in there and lured me out by using a little boy. But where were they all at that time? Neither Maxwell, First Lady, not even the Alpha himself was anywhere to be seen at the time. "You should apologize to him," my wolf whi
