The Alpha's Temptation 37
“Ma, I am on my way to the office” Tessa cut through her statement.“Who told you are still needed in the company, you big bag of worthlessness!” Candice scolded.Tessa felt the strong urge to stretch her hands through her phone screen and slap Candice.She had never in her life felt insulted before. She compared her life in her pack as a Luna, and imagined what would have been done to Candice or anyone who could ever dare to insult her.Torture, would have become her second name.“I am on my way.” Tessa replied. It was all she could think of as a reply.Tessa took a deep breath, stared at the digits on her table, and was nearly tempted to pick it up and call Chris.“No” Tessa yelled at her self, and summoned up the courage to stand up from the couch.She held onto the wall to avoid from falling down and strolled to her room.Her room was surprisingly still in it’s messy state, the state it had been when she was jumping on her bed after receiving the acceptance mail.Tessa pulled out
The Alpha's Temptation 1.
"Congratulation, Luna. According to the test, you are three months pregnant." The pack doctor announced as she placed the test results on the table for Tessa to see.Tessa was stunned for a moment. She was unable to speak. But when she recovered from her initial shock, she picked up the result. However, she could not understand what the medical terms on the result meant.So, she looks up at the doctor. Her expression was full of disbelief as she pointed at herself and asked, "I'm pregnant?"The doctor, Susan nodded. Her face was full of smiles as she looked at Tessa. She knew this news was bound to make her delighted. After all, it was what she wished for the most. She had been trying to give birth to a child for the Alpha to no avail.Sure enough, after Tessa got the doctor's confirmation, she instantly sprang up from her seat. She seemed especially excited as she grabbed her handbag from the chair.Then, she beamed at Susan. "I got to go. I have to share the good news with Chris."T
The Alpha's Temptation 2.
Tessa turned the omelet in the pan again before placing it on a clean porcelain plate. Then, she grabbed the two plates of omelet and left the kitchen.As she stepped into the dining room, she could see two figures seated around the table. Chris was seated at the head of the table while her sister, Mona sat on the seat on his left.They were smiling as they chatted. Their voices were low in a whisper and Tessa couldn't hear their words clearly but she was sure they were flirting. Sure enough, Chris lifted his palm which was initially on the table and he reached for Mona's lap.Tessa's heart stung and a deep sense of anger arose within her. She felt stupid. They had been acting like that a long time back. The discreet touches and the flirty winks. But, how did she manage to miss those actions?It was the day before that Tessa found out about their affair and she left home in denial. But after a few hours of walking around the beach and crying to vent her anger, she eventually calmed do
The Alpha's Temptation 3.
Tessa's hand stilled. She looked up at him and her gaze darkened. He had stood up so he was now looking down at her. But regardless, she didn't lose out in any way. This was because she seemed extremely annoyed and aggravated.Indeed, Tessa already had enough. She had been enduring their actions since yesterday because she was trying to think of the next step for her and her unborn child. But, she couldn't keep up with it any longer.She sprang up from her seat and grabbed the plate. Then, she looked at him with a ridiculing gaze.She spat, "You can go hungry if you don't want to eat. So ungrateful. I woke up early to make you breakfast but all I get is you telling me I'm bad at cooking."She packed up the plates and sneered, "Since my cooking sucks that much, then don't it. I'll just consider it as though my good intentions were fed to a dog."Chris was stunned by her words. His expression was that of disbelief as she looked at her. She had called him a dog.She even dared to say it
The Alpha's Temptation 4.
Despite her expectations on his act, Tessa still felt a piercing pain in her heart. She knew he was not remorseful about cheating on her. Yet, she still felt a pang of pain upon hearing his words.The feeling of getting stabbed in the back like that was not a good feeling. It felt extremely terrible.She had expected his actions. But still, how could be not feel any ounce of connection or guilt for what he had done to her?‘’I don’t need you anymore.’’ Chris started as he stared intently into her hazel colored eye..Tessa did not want to look into his eyes, but she caught herself doing it. The eyes that once ran over her body and looked at her with love and care in them. Those same eyes that got her living the best life were now staring at her with utmost anger in them.She had never felt so betrayed in her life.Deep down, Tessa felt the urge to reveal to Chris that she was pregnant with his child and end the whole drama. But she managed to restrain herself from doing so.As she sta

‘’Yes, I do.’’ Tessa finally uttered with her eyes still fixed on the Elder who asked the question.The Elder turned to Chris and said to him, "You know what to do now Alpha."Chris nodded, showing his understanding. Then, he turned towards Tessa and announced, "I, Chris Donovan hereby reject you Tessa Williams as my mate and Luna from this moment onwards."Tessa stumbled back almost immediately. She felt a numbing pain assault her whole body. She screamed out from the pain and squatted in a corner.Everyone was watching her quietly. But, no one stepped out to console or ease her pain.Slowly, the assaulting pain began to lessen. Tessa heaved breathlessly feeling more lightweight. She felt as though something had been broken inside her.The elder officiating the ceremony walked toward her and stopped in front of her. He looked downwards at her and said, "It's your turn to reject the Alpha now."Tessa nodded, understanding his words. Then, she sat up and looked at Chris. Then, she mutt
The Alpha's Temptation 6.
Tessa had cuddled herself up on her bed. Her pillow and duvet was drenched with tears. Even though, she had not thrown a tantrum, she was unable to accept the situation yet. She was unable to process it that her husband was really cheating on her.And, that he was gone. He was gone from her side.Tessa did not realize that she had slept off with tears in her eyes. Until, she woke up to the slow moaning sounds coming from where seemed to be her marital bed room. Her bedroom was right beside the guestroom she was in so she could hear the sounds especially clear. Tessa felt another pain assault her. It was blinding and overwhelming. She was unable to breath for sometime and it felt as though something was being pulled out of her roughly.It was then she realized something. It seemed Chris and Mona had been having sex all these time that she occasionally felt pain from time to time. It seemed she was being fooled for a long time.She felt betrayed and used. Once again, the tears begun to
The Alpha's Temptation 7.
Luckily for Tessa, she found a taxi which was on a midnight journey to New York. She didn't have enough cash on her to take a plane.At first, she was full of vigor and had a plan to follow. But, she soon remembered that she had no one where she was going. She had no place to stay for the night.She contemplated for sometime and decided to stay in an hotel for the night. Then, she would think of what to do when morning came.By the time she arrived at New York, the time was already 6am. She breathed in the new tranquil scent as she stepped down from the cab and was welcomed by a ‘welcome to New York city’ sign board.Having no where to go, Tessa asked a random man at the reception of the bus top, on where she could go next.‘’Wow, we have a new arrival.’’ The old man who sat behind the desk smiled at her.Tessa smiled back at him. "Please I am new here, do you know where I can get an accommodation? Like an hotel or something? Tessa asked with a yawn, she was tired.The man smiled back

The Alpha's Temptation 36
The journey back to her house seemed like the longest she had ever experienced, but she still could not compare it to how long her journey was while relocating.Tessa sat in the back seat of the tinted Toyota car. The fact that it was tinted got her thinking wildly.Why would he even have a tinted car if he was not sent by Chris?No, anybody could have a tinted car, but she felt like he had something up his sleeves.“I love Adele's music, I hope you do,” Chris said in more of a statement after he had played a song on the diskette.Tessa loved Adele, she loved her song, and he just had to play the one that she loved most, but at the moment, she hated Adele.She hated her for being loved by Chris, the unusually nice stranger.“How far am I from my house?” Tessa asked. She did not want to ask, but hearing Chris sing along to her favorite song got her pissed off.She wanted to sing along, and give the hand movement, just like she always did when she was with her ex-husband, but she could

‘’Just get out’’ She managed to raise her voice slightly while avoiding his gaze.‘’Nurse!’’ Tessa tried screaming, surprisingly, just as though the nurse was waiting for her yell, a female busty lady in a white gown walked swiftly into the room.‘’Who is this man’’ She managed the stretch out her fingers.‘’Please do not stress yourself too much, the baby…’‘’I am asking who this guy is, and why is he here, get him out’’ Tessa yelled in a low-sounding tone.‘’Sir, but I thought you knew her, he is your friend and neighbor’’ the nurse turned towards Chris, who all the while, was leaning on the wall with his face in his palm.‘’Yes, I am her neighbor.’’‘’Please can you kindly leave the room, we do not want anything that will stress our patient’’ The nurse kindly requested.‘’Maybe, she just cannot recall who you are’’ the nurse whispered in his ear when they were both at the door, hoping that Tessa would not be able to hear them, but who were they kidding, she could still hear their f
The Alpha's Temptation 34
Tessa held onto her knee, feeling a hot liquid seeping into her fingers and rolling into her palm. It has been a long time since she last felt such physical pain.As a normal wolf, Tessa expected that the pain she felt from hitting the edge of the bed would be long gone after a short period, but it only seemed to get worse.She limped from the floor and into the bathroom, where she sprinkled some droplet of water on her now bloody wound.She wondered what could be wrong with her body, maybe, just maybe, she was experiencing some pregnancy stuff, but then, she could vividly recall when her friend was pregnant and she had mistakenly fallen from a staircase, it did not take up to a minute for her to get from the floor and behave like nothing ever happened. The pain was long gone. Why the hell was her case different?‘’Ahha!’’ Tessa could no longer hold in the pain.she had heard cases of pregnant ladies finding it hard to heal, but really, she could not experience such, she was a wolf.W
The Alpha's Temptation 33
"Who are you?" He yelled into the shadows, just when the person was about to come into the light.“I am the one you love the most, I am your greatest nightmare, I am your weakness, I am your strength”.“Speak not in parables and get straight to the point, I am not afraid...”“Ahha!”Bryce screamed at the stinging pain of a came that just landed on his back.“Speak...” He was interrupted by another stinging pain.He tried his best to hold in the scream. He was sure that the cane could not be a normal one, it had to have spikes of silver branches He felt weaker with each stroke.“Do not talk when I talk the female voice said calmly, as though she could not feel the pain from Bryce's screams.“You thought you could end me. I will be back”.The pain on his back, covered up for every previous pain he could ever felt in his life. If it was a normal cane, he probably would not have screamed that much, but the silver strings just had to be his weakness even as an Alpha.He tried moving from t

Candice walked into Bryce office, after the two interviewers had ended their meeting with him.‘’So!’’ Candice placed her hand on Bryce desk casually.‘’How was your interview with the no experience candidate?’’ She asked.Candice gave a sarcastic chuckle, which was not intended to be loud but eventually came out as so.Bryce lifted his head from his desktop where he was reviewing the replied of the candidates, and glared at Candice.‘’Her interview was 0kay’’ He replied in an indifferent tone and got back to his key pad.‘’I really prayed for it to be a success. Do you know that when I was coming to your office, I spotted her by the corridor, she had that sober look on her face.’’ Candice laughed. She knew that she was overstepping her boundaries, but she equally hated the girl from first sight and gossiping her would be her only revenge mode.‘Okay’’ Bryce repeated the first reply.‘’ can’t you see how low quality she is for our business, do you want her to ruin it for us. I am sure
The Alpha's Temptation 31
After Tessa was in the room with Chris, just as expected he lashed out on her."Why did you leave the room?" Chris asked in a calm tone, lowering his head after he had transformed back to his human form.Tessa felt like she was shaking and he would read her fear, but he was not supposed to be scared, she was the Luna."Why did you leave the room when the Alpha ordered you to stay in it." Chris yelled, finally lifting his head and staring at her, Tessa could see the visible bruise that appeared on the side of his face, it would heal eventually, but the pain from it still ached her heart.It was the first time Chris had referred to himself as the Alpha when being with Tessa, she should have known that he would continue referring to himself as that, long after that event had ended."I could not feel your pain and leave you suffer alone by the way the gathering was meant for peace and not to be a starting point for war." Tessa took her Stan."I hope you saw the evil nature in that man c

"Are you married?" Bruce asked again, with much more courage in his tone after remembering that there is nothing suspicious or wrong with his question.Tessa opened her mouth to say a word, then shut them back as though she was scared. A second later, she laid out the bomb."No, I am divorced." Tessa was really shocked at his question, from her research, she knew that the asked question could be asked in most cases, but it was not a popular question and she did not expect it.She tried her best to maintain a normal confused gaze. Since she stepped into the interviewing room, she had forced herself to give a straight face as though she did not know Bruce, although he knew him. She knew all of Chris friends and villains because of the way Chris would always tell her of his plans to eradicate and bless them, and he had liked to talk about the bed deeds of Bryce and how he would slay him and his pack one day.Bryce was now sure that. She was indeed Chris's husband and it was her look ali
The Alpha's Temptation 29.
Bryce stared back at Tessa. Unlike Tessa who was trying to lower her head and act like it was normal to get interviewed by a rival to her pack, Bryce maintained his stare without hiding it. She walked over to the table and dropped her document on the desk, exposing the side of her neck which was not covered by her waist-length hair.‘’Come in, and take a seat.’’ Monica, one of the interviewers who had a strict expression on her face and was selected from the disciplinary section of the company said roughly to Tessa after she had greeted them.Bryce knew that the other interviewers could not sense the fear that roamed around Tessa. He seemed to be able to feel her fear and shivers. He wondered if it was because of the interview, or because he was the CEO of the company she had applied for.‘’From your document, we can see that you are 25 years old and you go by the name Tessa Stone.’’ Another female at the right hand of Bryce said while adjusting the bridge of her narrow-looking glas
