Leila had not gotten too far from her house when she suddenly froze. A strange aura filled the atmosphere, as her adrenaline rushed through her veins.

“Is anyone there” She shouted as she felt the cold breeze surging through her body. An alarming sense of danger aroused in her as she begins to walk fast.

She suddenly heard a creeping sound in the bush behind her, she turned around only to see him smiling. Hendrick.

“Hendrick” She bemused.

“Hey, c’mon I’m not a demon, I’m just looking out for my mate” he said staring deeply into her face.

“Your mate, can you just leave me alone, you rejected me, you molested me publicly, why are you then trying to act caring all this while”

“Hey, I’m not trying to harm you, you knew why I rejected you in the first place, you’re as wolfless as shit, no one has ever seen you transformed before, how awful is that” Hendrik said sarcastically as he turned around not willing to leave

“And you’re willing to have a wolfless girl as your sex mate” Leila responded feeling bewildered.

“More reason why I’m here, i know you desire to know the reason for your parent’s death, but you surely can’t get to the root of the matter with this dogged attitude of yours”

“Enough of that ranting dear Alpha, you’ll never get close to me” She said as she walked the road while waving a cab.

“Good Morning ma’am” Leila curtsied as she sighted Ms. Mary in the store

“Hey girl, beautiful morning. Hope you had a splendid night” Ms. Mary enquired as she patted her cheek.

“Yeah Ma’am” She answered as she remembered the crazy shit Hendrik did last night and having to trail her this morning.

“Okay, So Leila, Mrs. Wilderose asked for a thousand cent grocery which would be way billed to her, I’d love you to add that to the account ledger” she said as she was checking out the store for finished goods.

“Also, remember that we have some goods coming in today, do well to settle the bills for that and keep me updated on how the expenses goes” She said still taking note of the goods in the store.

“Okay ma’am, I would do that ma’am” Leila already noticed that the day was really going to be hectic for her. Well she needed it tho. She was still pondering on her thought when a beep from her phone distracted her.

She tried discarding the message, but her curiosity got the best part of her. Swiping down her phone she saw a notification of a newly opened bar at the middle of the city.

“The Elite Bar and Resort set to display their awesome features for being the 8th best wonder in the world. The city of Alamis is yet to contain the pleasure of this. To be newly opened by 8pm today” She read the message aloud, as she seems to be intrigued by the message.

“How would a night in this bar feel like?” She thought.

“A hangover this night surely won’t be bad” She soliloquized

“Hey dear” she was called upon to attend to the trooping customers

 I’d love to have this” a customer said as she Leila began to attend to the customers.

6pm 

*Later in the Day*

“Hey Leila, when you’re done pack the groceries and place them in the right place. Do well to attach the correct price tag to it” Ms. Mary gave the instructions whilst she worked out of the store, leaving Leila to attend to the customers

“Oh yeah, thank you for this, I would leave a reminder for Ms. Mary about the incoming product” 

“Alright, so sweet of you, I’d inform her then” Leila said as she attended to the last customer.

Just as the customer went out of the store, Leila took a seat as the thoughts of the current happenings in her life flickered in her thoughts.  

The unflinching pestering of Hendrik has gotten to her nerves as she ruminated over the thoughts of what happened in the night of altercation, the way Hendrik rejected her publicly because of her wolfless ability.

Something immediately dropped in her mind. The bar

That seems to be like the best option, she just wanted to get over all the happenings around her. She really wanted everything to end.

Without flinching, she grabbed her handbag as she headed out straightening her gown while she searched the location of the bar on her phone 

*********************************************

It took a long while for her to eventually find the bar, and when she did. The environment doesn’t look fascinating to her. The loud songs from the blaring speakers, the noisy environment, the tiny bickering light that shone from the corners of the bar. This obviously wasn’t what she wanted, but she was determined to try it out as she headed to the bartender for a drink.

Just as she was about stepping into the bar, she bumped into someone whose stature and looks made her shiver. Spilling his drinks all over her body and she could only wander who it was as a hot slap landed on her face, causing her face to spin.

    Just as she was about stepping into the bar, she bumped into someone whose stature and looks made her shiver. Spilling his drinks all over her body and she could only wander who it was as a hot slap landed on her face, causing her face to spin.“Oh, sorry dear” the man said as she jerked from her thoughts.“Yeah, I’m so sorry sir, I was lost in thought” She replied apologetically“And what is a damsel like you thinking about, what makes your face pale” he asked trying to lift her chin up.“Everything is fine sir, I’m sorry for bumping into you” She said as she walked away.The young man stared at her as she walked out on him, her beauty to him was out of this world. He wished he could know more about her. Leila could only just imagine the mess she made of herself, how can she be so distracted to make her bump into someone else. She then began to imagine the man physique, his characteristics, his childish face and she could obviously perceive wealth around him.“Hey dude, you’ve got a

    The day obviously doesn't seem cool to me, as I had laid my head on the desk at work. The normal salesy activities were ongoing as Ms. Mary kept attending to all the trooping customers.I swerved my chair around in a bid to bring myself closer to the printer, but my eyes fell on a bracelet in my bag. How it got there was something I can't tell, on a closer look I realized it was the only compensation I got from last night's act.I remembered pulling it off from his hand while he was thrusting me in and out. I tried waving the thoughts of my head, but I just couldn't stop thinking about it.How could I have been so foolish to let a recently met man have sex with me, not only that, I didn't even know his name.A lot of things seemed to be going on within me as different thoughts ran across my head.I thought of taking a day off for a break, but I remembered that I recently got employed in the store. I had to cope with the stress from work, and the stress of my life.This obviously looks

    Your highness? Your Highness!" Jake tapped me, I grabbed his arms out of impulse,"Jake?" "You were having a nightmare." He says, "So it was all a dream?" I thought deeply,It was morning already, couldn't believe I slept for that long,*We have a problem, your highness" Jake says, I glanced at him,"What problem?""I think it's best if you'd come by yourself." He started getting me all curious now, what was going on?We walked down the stairs as I hurriedly put on my robe, Jake's look was that of a perplexity as I wondered what could be wrong, but immediately we got down to the lounge. I knew truly we had a problem.I sighted the Kingdom council elders all standing in the room prepared for a meeting, I knew the reason why they had all come. My Mate.The sound of his footsteps as he walked through the columns that lined his castle made an echoing sound that seemed to reverberate with each step he took. It was pitch black in here, except for the light from the electric bulbs.Caspian

    It was with silence and moodiness that Leila closed from the store, the customers and even Ms. Mary kept asking her what went wrong as they all saw how moody she was, but she really couldn't give them a definite answerShe walked down the dark road to her community as the chirps from bed and the croaks from frogs were the only thing she could hear. Just as she was almost close to her house. No sooner had she gotten down to her street she perceived a strange scent. She knew what the scent was all about as she knew it was a wolf lurking around.She turned around to get the identity of who it was, but just as she almost reached the peak of the scent the wolf escaped running through the woods amidst the thickness of the bush.Being curious and determined to know who it was, Leila ran after him flinging her back to the bushBrandon panted as he ran through the forest. He tried not to look back as he ran ahead as fast as he could, using his ears to listen if he was still being followed.When

    She looked outside through the open window as the air softly brushed over her skin. Together with well-lit streets, the moon's strong illumination of the earth made every street and block visible. When Isabella glanced up at the bright stars, she felt as if they were trying to tell her something. The wall clock, whose ticking sound was the sole sound in the whole home, was her lone company in the spacious bedroom as she turned back into the space.She moved over to her planning desk, shut the window, turned on the laptop, and patiently waited for it to fully start before clicking on a folder icon on the desktop. She opened the folder and saw a Microsoft Word document, which she opened and started to browse.After a minute, she got to her feet, clearly happy with the information she had learned from the paper. Rechecking the wall clock, she saw that it had already been fifteen minutes since midnight. The Nefury clan would relocate the targeted vehicle by 3am, based on the data she had

    Lord, Good morning. The caller was greeted by Isabella.An unforgiving voice replied, "Good morning, Isabella."‘Lord, have you gotten the stuff you asked me to get? As per our plan, I put it in the car parked in front of your office."Yes, I saw it," You've seen it, she said. However, why didn't you call me then? You didn't uphold your end of the bargain.What's up?‘What do you mean Lord? Didn’t you say that I would get the bank alert for my balance two hours after you get the carton?’‘Yes I said that, but you broke the agreement first’‘What? How?’‘You said you would do the job without slaying any wolves‘Yes, I didn’t slay any" ‘But it was all over the news yesterday, all the wolves at the warehouse were found dead yesterday’That didn't happen in the afternoon, so it wasn't me. I completed the task around 3am.‘How am I supposed to believe that you really did the job by 3am?’‘What the hell are you talking about Lord?’ Isabella flared up. ‘I see you don't want to keep your part

    Were you unaware of the assault that occurred that morning? Bobby asked the old guy a question."No, I do not,"What made you attempt to avoid speaking with the police, then?"I didn't intentionally flee from the police, but I was afraid that people who stormed the warehouse may come after me," the suspect said. The guy answered."Your dirty hands are the reason you were terrified,""No, I have no knowledge, and my hands are clean,"But you took part in the illicit activity that took place that evening."It wasn't against the law; occasionally we work late and get paid extra," was what really took place. What kind of merchandise did you folks offer to them, the man clarified What else do we sell my kid, said Bobby? We provide coffee drinks. However, you have a number of beverage goods."Yes, tin milk was the one those men came for that night.""All right, those men do you recognize them?

Were they able to navigate through our server?”“Shit” Jake cursed, he had not thought that they could possibly hide their server like they did to the surveillance, “But if I may ask, they would still know that we messed with the account. I mean they would get a notification and then ban our account”“Then we just have to ensure that we do it discreetly without them being aware.Jake frowned still, not still getting what she was saying.“Alright, don’t worry.
