Gianna's POV
Immediately Kerra left, I headed straight to the dining room and took a seat, looking down at my food and contemplating whether or not to wait for Dane.
I looked at the wall clock, time was running so fast and my tolerance for hunger was running thin, I had not eaten anything since breakfast.
Shrugging, I dug into the meal and shoved the roasted meat into my mouth, moaning as the delicious taste hit my tastebuds.
Damn, Kerra is a goddess of food.
Every meal Kerra made was a masterpiece, I was always overfed from her meals back then in my pack and as Alpha I wasn't supposed to touch anything or engage in pack chores, hence the major reason I couldn't prepare a decent meal but Kerra thought me some cooking tricks that could help me if need calls for it.
My eyes lightened up when I took a spoonful of the soup and just when I was about to take another piece of meat, a growl cut me off. I turned my head to see Dane leaning against th
Gianna's POVI went to my room immediately I said those words leaving Dane in shock. He didn't stop me but I felt his eyes on me the whole time causing a sway in my movement as I made my way to my bedroom.Letting out a long and frustrated sigh, I made my way to the bathroom and washed my face and teeth. Just when I was about to climb into bed, a loud knock made me halt in my movement and I muttered words under my breath before I opened the door.Opening the door, I saw Dane standing there with his hands in his pockets staring at me like I had done something to him.Raising my brows with my arms folded against my chest expecting him to say something but he just remained mute. I was beginning to get irritated with his silence plus I was standing for too long when I was supposed to be in bed resting my tired bones."Did you really mean what you said out there?" He asked as he pulled his hands out from his pockets and crossed it over his chest.
Dane's POVThe fact that Gianna wasn't willing to listen to me was making me livid and I hated the feeling because it made me want to do unreasonable things because she was not appreciating my efforts.I was deep in thoughts in my office when I felt a presence in my office and I turned my head to the door frame and noticed Angel leaning against the door frame. I furrowed my eyebrows because I didn't know when she got here even though I sent for her."What did you tell Gianna?" I asked, my voice laced with anger. Angel cleared her throat and stood straighter, avoiding my eyes."I didn't tell Gianna anything Alpha, is there a problem?" She answered and my body stiffened.I hated when I was being lied to, I cleared my thro
Dane's POVI stood up quickly from my chair with a look of disgust and surprise evident on my face."Is this what desperation has reduced you to? You think you can actually play mind games on me and I'd fall for your manipulation? Listen Angel, I don't want to repeat this again, let's just pretend this conversation never happened and go back to our normal lives, just get out of my office and continue your duties."She glared back at me, her eyes narrowed as she stood up and came around my desk."I beg your pardon, you think I'd actually like just to be in your good books? Yeah, I want to be in your good books but believe me Alpha, I would not tell a lie. I mean everything I said, Miles actually plotted against you to dupe you. As we speak, he has companies already functioning in the human pack. I can give you the address so you can see things for yourself.""Miles is a whole lot of things but definitely not a betrayer, he would never do that
Gianna's POVThe rituals for my Luna ceremony began today and I did not know how to feel. If I go on with this ceremony, it means I was finally ditching my pack and forgetting about all my plans to get what it's finally mine, I mean there were people like Kerra who looked up to me for redemption.The first phase of the ceremony was going to begin by 12am under the glow of the moon and I just had a few hours to tell Dane everything, and seriously I feared what his reaction would be.Would he hate me for keeping this from him for too long or would he support my plans?Dane hated lies, he told me this from the inception but I just couldn't open up to me, the female gamma informed me on our way back from shopping that miles had slumped from the excessive beatings Dane had subjected him to.I felt like a bad person and I know for a fact that I'd never be in Miles good books ever again, seriously speaking, I'd have to be careful from henceforth bec
Chapter 130Gianna's POV"Dane, I can explain... I." I trailed off when he glanced at me for a moment then continued wiping the sides of his mouth.My mouth suddenly felt heavy and bitter and it was worse because his mind was blank. I couldn't tell what he was thinking, I didn't even know he already knew the secret I was hiding, being embarrassed was an understatement to how I felt right now.He smiled. "It's fine" He waved it off like it was nothing since he already knew I was lying.It wasn't fine, he had already discovered a huge chunk about my past and this was something I wanted to tell him myself and I was worried by the fact that he was so calm and cool about it when he was supposed to be shouting the whole house down.That was the Dane I knew, the man I was mated to.The man sitting in front of me wasn't Dane and it made me so scared as I wrapped my hands around my body for comfort.
Gianna's POVI lied again.This was supposed to be an avenue for me to reveal all my secrets once and for all like I originally promised but I just realized that I haven't healed from my past and it would actually take a while before I come to the realization that things would never be the same.He was acting this way before he found out half of my secrets, what would be his reaction if he found out the rest of it, he'd definitely kill me and feed me off to rogues.“I just asked you a fucking question Gianna!”I am suddenly shaken and I jump up at the sound of his voice, I turn around to meet his golden orbs.“Are you looking for more ways to lie to me, you do know I do not believe that bullshit you just uttered, for your sake and that of everything you hold dear, you better tell me the truth. I swear you would not like the outcome.” His deep voice echo
Gianna's POV Hate.Deep resentment, that's the only thing I felt right now and not for Dane, but for myself. Things were turning sour because of me, I thought I could handle things on my own and now look at where it had gotten me.Never in a million years did I think I would be kneeling in front of a man and actually submitting to him. It would have happened eventually but being forced to do so made it worse. My parents would actually be rolling in their graves at the disappointment I had become."Say the words Gianna."My body crumbles to the floor as he hits my back making me bend lower. I didn't need to look at his face to realize he was smirking down at me. He had finally gotten what he wanted, the satisfaction that he could have ultimate control over me and not rub shoulders with him because of my status, but that was not even my intent, I had other plans but disrespecting him was out of the list."I can't Dane, please don't make me do this, don't force me against my will, I'v
Gianna's POVIt sounded really stupid and crazy when an omega came into my room immediately after Dane left and informed me that Dane had given strict instructions that I be taken to a separate room in the house which would be strictly monitored by guards for the rest of today.I didn't argue with the omega because I do not want to make a fool out of myself in the presence of my subjects, but Dane was beginning to get on my nerves and doing too much because of a lie he already found out the truth.What if I had told him instead?No doubt he would have had me whipped before his pack members till I bleed to death.He was being inhumane in his actions.Dragging my feet, with the omega following closely, I finally reached the room which was at the far end of the hallway.It was similar to my old room but it didn't make it less dem
