Has anyone else noticed that this man's ego is so freaking fragile and he's just a walking bag and insecurities and low self esteem? he hates the idea of Crystal being above him when it's freaking obvious that he's so insecure 💀
CRYSTALJohn shuts the door behind him and I let out a breath to gather my courage and look him in the face.He's frowning so heavily like he's just dying to have wrinkles. What's wrong with him? My thoughts flash to Tatiana and I can already imagine there's trouble in paradise.“ Well look who it is,” he chuckles, his mood suddenly brightening up. He has turned me to his clown, an object of mockery– I can only imagine how much fun he's having.Sick, twisted man. I should've filed for this divorce a long time ago. At least then, he would've been out of my life and he wouldn't accuse me of cheating.He's trying desperately hard to label us the same when in fact, we're two very different people.It's still afternoon and I wonder why he's even here. He should be at work.“ Let's get this over with,” I start in a bold voice.“ Done playing Cinderella,” he asks, ignoring my request to go straight to the point. “I bet you ran straight to your lover. Did you report me?”“ What do you want?”
SILVERIt's been two days since I last saw her. How could she have slipped right from beside me and I didn't even flinch? I woke up to a cold space by my side, signalling that she was long gone before I even noticed.I was so relaxed around her that I let my guard down. I've never slept so peacefully around anyone that way in such a long time.By the time I woke up, it was afternoon and there was no way to reach her. She's not answering her phone or responding to my texts.Why did she leave so suddenly? She couldn't even wait for me to wake up to say goodbye.The manner at which she visited in the first place was still questionable. 4a.m! I never imagined she would do that, no matter how eager she was to see me.Crystal wouldn't make a move unless she has a solid reason behind it.I also can't get my mind off her teary face when I opened the door. Now that I think about it, she looked like she had something to say. Something was obviously troubling her but I had been too excited by th
CRYSTAL I yank my hand from his hold, pressing myself against the door in an attempt to stay away from him. I hide my teary face and bit my trembling lips. He's making this a lot harder than it's supposed to be. It's not like I can make things easier by speaking the words of rejection.The feelings will only resurface when I lay eyes on him, it's futile."That's none of your business!" I squeeze my hand, feeling the cold ring on my finger. Once again, I've put on my cuffs and like a prisoner, I'm prepared to face my sentence. Only this time, I wonder how long.How do I get out of this without looking like the bad guy? My relationship with my family is at stake and I know John will go to every length to paste those pictures."Look me in the eye, Crystal!" Silver yells, his voice going hoarse that it sends a chill down my spine. I squeeze my eyes shut, shivering with a small whimper as his angry pheromones full the car, it's almost hard to breathe.The windows are rolled up, the door i
CRYSTALIt's too late to realise that I've caught the eye of a psychopath in the form of a mate. Every word that leaves his mouth is the truth, no matter how dark those words may seem.With each distance the taxi puts between us, my heart ache increases and soon I'm almost overwhelmed in a depressive feeling with my vision blurring from the tears.“Shit,” I wipe my arm over my face and turn my side to the road as I start to take the long walk home.How does he even know the neighbourhood better than I do? Wait a minute, why the heck am I even asking? Like it's not already obvious he knows every one of my whereabouts.If that's the case then– I make a fist and bite my lower lip– he must know how the ring came about, right?John stayed over last night but I was too terrified to let him sleep in the same room with me. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure if I was terrified of him or afraid of what my wolf would do.She keeps growling and snarling when he's around, I have to stay on ale
SILVERJames can't hide the look of shock on his face when I step down from the cab and slam the door shut.“ Where the heck did that come from?” He asks as he walks past me to inspect the car like it's something out of the ordinary. “Your highness–”“ It's just a cab, James. Take it back to the owner when he calls. If he calls,”he must be too terrified to even dare. Plus I had quite a few hundred dollar bills in that wallet, my credit card too. I thread my fingers through my hair as I stand out in the parking lot of the mall, looking back and forth.I can still feel the annoyance rushing through my veins with Crystal's pitiful image in my head. If I hadn't left when I did, I wonder what I would have done to her.Maybe I'd have pulled out the ring not caring if her fingers came off or not.“ You smell like Crystal. Don't tell me you acted like a cab driver just to meet her,” James plans his face like I'm simply too much these days.“ Don't be ridiculous. I only borrowed the damn cab.”
JOHN I pace the front door rather impatiently as my anger skyrockets. I've been standing outside for more than twenty minutes now. How did she change the locks so fast? She's really going to kick me out and pretend like I didn't pay for this place with my hard earned money? She's never been this ungrateful, this is topping the charts. Even Crystal didn't change the locks despite giving me divorce papers. Who does she think she us- “ Daddy!” I lift my head at the familiar squeaky voice and I find my daughter running to me. I go down on my knees and spread my arms with joy in my heart at the sight of her. “ Come here, darling,” I hug her in my embrace, lifting her up with my hand over her head as I press my face against hers. “ I miss you so much.” “ Me too,” she says with glee, always so excited to see me. It's one of the joys of coming back here. Her mother, however, is glaring at me as she walks closer and I'm not even surprised. She rolls her eyes and walks past like she does
CRYSTAL “ What the fuck are you doing?” I can still feel her long wet tongue on my cheek– is that even normal length. “ Get off me,” I'm suddenly pissed but she's staring at me like I'm fascinating. “ I understand you're of Alpha blood too,” she suddenly lets me go and steps back but doesn't quite give me enough space. If anyone took a picture of us now, they'd surely blackmail me when I haven't even dealt with John's blackmail. Her pheromones are strong, no doubt and they are rubbing off against me the wrong way and I'm almost growling at her. “ You look… beautiful with that anger in your eyes-” “ What do you want?” Why would she attack me in the middle of the day and yap about Silver unless… she's Silver's new bride. “ I am Alpha Claire of-” “ What do you want with me?” She pauses at my interruption, her eyes squinting with a small annoyance for a while as she studies me. I have no intentions to be dragged into any threats or fight for a man. Although, I'm itching
JOHN I'm almost shuddering in my breath as I look down at Crystal who searches me eyes with confusion on her brows. I've fallen for that innocent look too many times but this time, I won't be her fool anymore. “ What are you talking about?” She asks, making no attempt to get up from the floor. Good! Because that's where she fucking belongs. On the fucking floor, underneath me. Tatiana really thinks she's above me? Well I wouldn't place a naive child with misplaced priorities over a hard working man like myself. Despite having two heads, Crystal and her wolf are still dumb as fuck but this time, they outsmarted me and I'm gonna make her pay for that. “ You know what I'm talking about!” I snap, her lies and deceit falling on deaf ears as I grab her hair and yank her up. She cries out in pain, holding my wrist as tears fall down her cheeks, groaning all over the place. “ You made him do it, didn't you?” My anger is like molten lava and I wish for nothing more than to explode righ
