Lily couldn't stop herself from getting more and more irritated with Harriet. Her stepsister was excited to meet with Nathan. That was crazy. Especially because the man was her mate. The jealousy that rose in her from Harriet’s reaction was not to be talked about. Getting to their private class, Lily told Harriet to wait at the side. “Why?” Harriet glared at her.“Because you can't just barge into them this way. Do you want to be sent away before you even get a chance to speak to him?” Lily rolled her eyes. “Fine.” With this, Lily walked into the class. Harriet was jealous seeing that Lily had easy access to them. She was just a maid yet she could easily go to them. She didn't dwell on the thought because she really wanted to be with Nathaniel. Getting in, Lily walked to their midst. They were settled on their specific seat. The table in front of them had their names on a block. There were laptops and other gadgets spread on the desk. It was expensive. They were expensive. Nathan
Lily got herself again, she reminded herself that Nathaniel was a casanova. And there was nothing she could do about it. She went back to her locker and picked up her bag. Classes were over and school was done. However, she wasn't going home. She picked up her phone and called Alexa. “I won't be coming home early today,” she said. “Why?” Alexa’s voice sounded on the other end. Lily was passing through the library to pick up some books for herself. She would need them to distract herself from her mom and her husband. “My stepbrother is sick, I want to check on him,” she replied, sliding her library card against the sensory. With this, she was allowed access. “Oh, okay. You should buy some energy drink on your way.” Alexa advised. “Alright. Thank you.” With this, she ended the call and tucked her phone in her bag. After picking up the necessary books, she got out of the library. Lily checked the time and saw that she had spent forty minutes trying to find the perfect books. Sometim
It was quite early when Luna noticed that Lily didn't come home. She walked to Lily’s room and checked again as if it were possible that Lily had appeared in her room suddenly. It was at the same time Alexa came to check as well. “Did she tell you she wasn't going to come home?” Luna Amara asked. “No. She only mentioned that she would be coming late.” Alexa replied. “However, I think that it was because she missed her family. She probably spent the night with them.” Alexa added. The Luna nodded. It could be so. Just then the triplets walked out of their rooms. “She is certainly unprofessional to call Alexa instead of us. Aren't we her boss? This is the reason we fired the previous maids!” He growled, stopping beside his mother. “It's not about being professional son. She probably thought that Alexa would relay the message. Also, her phone could have been turned off and she couldn't call anyone.” Luna Amara defended. Gabriel balked, rolling his eyes. “It is nothing, Gabriel. She
Lily felt two strange men in front of her. She moved her head at each sound that they made as they had. blindfolded her. Her heart thumped fast in her chest cavity. She was scared of what they would do to her. Perhaps they were gangstars who would rape her. Lily was extremely scared. “Who are you guys?” She asked for the umpteenth time. She could hear them roaming about, their feet hitting the floor and their harsh breath expanding in the air. Lily’s voice was shaky, she was scared for her life. Even then, she didn't stop asking questions. “Will you shut it?!” One of the men yelled again. “No!” She snapped. Her heart still dangling in her rib cage. Being stubborn sometimes lands her in trouble. However, she didn't care. She had to ask some questions before she did. “Why am I here? I didn't do anything wrong!” She shouted, her voice blaring and gaining their attention again. They knew that if they didn't answer her, she would continue to shout. She had been like that since they t
Lily found herself running through the bushes, her heels hitting the floor heavily. She just wanted to go back to school. She had a tournament to win and that was more important. Even when she was out of breath, she didn't stop. She kept running and her bones began to ache yet she didn't stop. Unfortunately, the ones that kidnapped her shifted to their wolf form and ran after her as well. Lily could feel their heated chase, it was going to be easy even if she shifted, it wasn't going to be easy. They were bigger and stronger than she was. Tears began to build in her eyes, and her heart thumped wildly in her chest. She was scared. Lily began to pray that she wouldn't be caught. She prayed that she would find someone who would save her from the kidnappers. Unfortunately, her prayers turned deaf ears. One huge wolf stopped in front of her and then another behind her. She planned on running to the side but another jumped out, scaring the shit out of her. She sobbed and eventually fell
Nathaniel and Gabriel walked toward Caleb who was wiping his face. Hot breath still left his nostrils. He was seething. All she cared about was the stupid tournament. Was that how cheap her life meant to her? “Caleb, you did great out there. The guy didn't even touch a strand of your hair!” Nathaniel laughed, trying to change the atmosphere. It would be dangerous to talk about Lily again. “I think this is the reason Caleb doesn't like joining the tournament, it is too cheap for him. He is a great fighter!” Gabriel added having the same idea as Nathaniel. He touched Caleb’s toned shoulder. It was true. Caleb had trained hard his entire life. He left no room for procrastination and discipline. Rather, he took practicing as one of the most important things in his life. Now, fighting with high school students was nothing to him hence he counted joining as cheating. He would beat them hands down. “Now that you won, who is going to be your slave?” Nathaniel asked. Caleb looked at his b
It was the weekend, Lily was helping Alexa out in the kitchen. They were talking about a series that Alexa recently took an interest in. She wanted Lily to try watching the series as well. “Do these humans know werewolves exist?” Lily asked. It was a food for thought anyway. No one really knows what the humans are thinking or planning. Perhaps they know. “I don't know, Lily. All I asked is for you to watch the paranormal series.” Alexa chuckled. She hasn't thought about it to that point. Infact, she had never thought about it. Just then, Clara walked into the room. She rested her back against the doorpost and folded her hands around her chest, watching them with jealously. She wondered how Lily quickly got close to Alexa who was the head of the maids. Alexa never gave her attention when she newly resumed. How come Lily earned that spot in her heart? Alexa couldn't even be regarded as an Omega, she was the head maid and had been working in the palace for a long time. She was better.
Are these the mates? She asked herself, her body system throbbing from the shock. Even her eyes almost popped out of their sockets. It took some level of self-control to not spill the food on her hands. She walked closer to the table and placed it there. Then her eyes returned to the ladies sitting in the dining. It was Harriet and she was beside Nathaniel. Vivian was sitting alone as Caleb wasn't in the room yet. Gabriel had an unfamiliar girl beside him. Lily didn't need a soothsayer to tell her what was going on. And her anger couldn't take it. These men were her mates, she should be with them not some worthless girls who hated her. Perhaps she didn't know the last one but she was certain she didn't like her as well. Eliza pushed forward.“Ruin the table!” Eliza growled.“I can't.” Lily fought against her. Lily was just as upset but acting irrationally would not get them anywhere. The Luna was present, she needed to be accorded some level of respect. Eliza purred, she was hurt.
