The bomb blast was still a mystery to Connor as he stood at a distance watching how the remains of Liliana were lowered six feets under the ground. His throat suddenly went dry and that was because of the guilt that he felt inside of him.

Different voices kept screaming in his head that he was the reason for her death because if he hadn't gotten her arrested, then she would have been alive till this day. It was such a miracle that he was there to witness her burial because her father dared to end his life if he ever spots Connor.

However, after much pleading from Connor's parents and Connor trying to justify why he got Liliana arrested, he was finally allowed to witness her burial and that was on the condition that he must watch her being laid down from a distance.

Carolina came in the company of Roseanne who held an umbrella for her and she stopped on her track when she caught sight of Connor who stood rigid on the same spot. She brushed her hands through her neck and motioned for R

    Connor's mother cocked her brow to the left as she glanced back and forth between Carolina and Connor. The look on her face was so deadly that if looks could kill, then she would have been long dead. Carolina's voice hitched as she brushed her fingers through her neck. Her stomach tied a knot and that was because of the state of nervousness that she was thrown in.She knew that if she didn't say a word, then would find herself in a situation that she doesn't want to find herself in. She was about to say a word when she suddenly recollected the word that she heard Connor say. Carolina turned to look at Connor as they both locked eyes together."The lady that I want to get married to?" Carolina repeated. When Connor caught on to what was going on at the moment, he pulled Carolina by the shoulder, squeezing her gently on the shoulder while flashing his white dental at his mum in an awkward manner.He leaned by his side a bit as he whispered into her ear."Just play along and don't say a

    Carolina bit on the corner of her lower lips as she swallowed the heavy lump that formed in her throat. The same venom and coldness in his eyes that were evident on the day she had encountered him were still in his eyes. She suddenly felt cold air gushing through her skin and that was due to the cause of the cold aura that he exuded.Connor's father averted his gaze from Carolina and fixed his gaze on Connor."Isn't this the lady that I told you to send out of your house? Don't tell me that you later kept this lady by your side. Didn't you take my words seriously when I told you that you shouldn't keep an outsider by your side" Connor's dad yelled at him.Carolina was surprised as her mouth was slightly agape, wondering what was happening at the moment. She kind of wondered why Connor didn't tell her that his father disapproved of Connor keeping her by his side. Assuming she had known about his father's stance on her, she would have made sure that she met with Connor's father and told

    Connor's father blinked his eyes a couple of times as he retracted his step backward. As much as Connor was proud of Carolina for putting her father in his place, he didn't like how she addressed his whole existence as a joke. He wanted her to defend herself but he didn't expect her to be this disrespectful about it."Do you know who I am for you to talk to me like that? Do you have any respect? Do I look like your age mate that you can insult and go scot-free?" He yelled at the top of his lungs as Connor buried his face in his hands. Squeezing his eyes shut frustratedly.This wasn't how he was expecting his day to be. He wanted to mourn Liliana's death peacefully and from afar, but he didn't sign up for all the drama that was happening before him, and worst of all was that it was happening on the day of Liliana’s burial. He might have never loved her but he didn't want her to be disrespected like that and he knew that if he doesn't stop his father as fast as possible, then the issue

    "Mirabel?" Connor repeated as he stared intently at her. She smiled back in return and stretched her hand forward for a handshake. Carolina saw the way Connor's face lightened up on seeing her, causing her to wonder who Mirabel was.The lady whom Connor had addressed as Mirabel had long dark hair that fell on her back. Everything about her screamed class and with the way her simple outfits accentuated her curves, someone would know that she was drowned in luxury. "Yes, Mirabel" Connor and Mirabel both exchanged a handshake while Connor's eyes lit up as if he had seen a unicorn as he laughed awkwardly.Carolina raised a brow, wondering what was funny for him to laugh like that because if she could remember vividly, nobody talked about anything funny so why was he laughing like that?All of a sudden, it dawned on Connor that Mirabel shared a striking resemblance to the lady that he met at the hotel when he went on a business trip and she also shared a striking resemblance to the woman

  • The Purchased Luna    Hate to love

    Days after Liliana was buried, everything went back to normal and Connor apologized to his father about everything that had happened although he still hid the fact that Carolina was his mate and that he wanted to get married to her. Except for his mother who knew about his plans, she refused to support him despite how he tried to explain things to her.Connor came to the conclusion that the only way Carolina would be able to be accepted by his parents was for her to slowly bond with them, the same way Liliana did before her death. Connor adjusted his glasses as he sat on the chair in the study room. Different thoughts coursed through his mind as he slipped his hands through his hair and ruffled it with his hands. He wasn’t the type to always care about people or most especially about people who had stabbed him in the back. However, he was concerned about Luc and that wasn’t for the fact that he cared about Luc in any way but that was for the fact that he knew Luc cared for Liliana a

    Carolina cringed at his statement as he buried his head on her shoulder and kissed her slowly on the neck. “You love me?” Carolina muttered, causing Connor to raise his head as a bright smile formed on his face. He was glad that he was finally able to confess that he loved her and every part of him ached to tell her about how he felt about her.Down to her hair, the way she smiles, and the way she talks except for when she talks to him rudely, he wanted to confess his feelings to her and let her know how he felt about her. He wanted his confession to hold more meaning and depth and not just the three words “I love you.”“Yes, I do. More than you can ever imagine. I love you and every part of you because literally, you are the reason why I can experience what it felt like to be in love with someone after a long period” Connor slurred as he pressed his lips against her neck.He placed his lips on hers but she quickly broke the kiss while she tilted her head slowly, lowering her head be

    Jerking forward, Carolina heaved an exasperated sigh as she typed on her laptop. A memo regarding a scholarship popped up on her phone and as much as she wanted to return to school. The fear of Connor held her back from doing what she wanted. Carolina held him in resentment but she was still scared about what he would do to her if he ever finds out that she was planning on going back to school without talking it with him first or maybe she was just overreacting and the only thing she needed was just to put her hope in him and strike a good conversation with him.“What do I do?” Carolina muttered under her breath leaning forward with her forearms as she cradled her head in her hands. She was in a dilemma that made her wonder if she would ever escape. She wanted to be free and happy but with the way things went, she doubted that she would be ever free and happy. It wasn’t that Connor had mistreated her in any way. Instead, he was the one who tolerated a lot of things from her without

    Connor palmed his forehead in his hands before raising his head and shooting Carolina a death stare. He turned to look at his mother who stared at him in utter disbelief and he was taken aback when he saw Mirabel standing beside her while holding a food basket. “M-Mother….” Connor sauntered to her but before he could reach where she was standing, she raised her hand, motioning for him to stop as he stopped in his tracks with his eyebrows furrowed in confusion.“What in the world is happening here? I am disappointed in you, son! How can you allow a mannerless lady like this to talk to you disrespectfully if this is the lady that you want to get married to? Then you are in for a great shock because this would never happen” His mother glared at Carolina.A thought suddenly popped up in Carolina’s head. If she takes good advantage of the situation and of the issue that was about to arise before her, then there was a good chance that she would be able to escape Connor’s vicious claws beca

    Carolina was surprised, she squinted her eyes open to see that she was close to the water but not too close for the Crocs to jump and attack her. She took her eyes up and saw someone running hurriedly towards her. He controlled the leveler and it took her away from the Crocs that were still waiting for her beneath the leveler. Carolina was speechless as he watched the man try to unchain her hands, "Someone came to save me? Unbelievable!" She exclaimed in her mind, her heart gladdened. The man's face came into view and Carolina's brows furrowed, "Uncle Gregory?" She uttered, staring at the man in confusion. "That's right Carolina, it's me" he returned and pulled off the chain locs with so much force that it broke open. "I came to save you and to as well warn you to stay safe. Liliana is alive, I'm sure about this because she is the one that has put you in this position. To kill you off" Mr Gregory added, helping Carolina out of the leveler. He looked like he truly wanted to he

    Carolina was convinced that Jackson has a hand in the kidnap because why else did he insist on seeing me even after I had tried to make him understand that I couldn't? She could feel her face turning red in rage as she figured out that it was all his plan to have her killed. He betrayed her!

    "And what's that about?" Alpha Connor asked, out of curiosity. "I have offended you gravely and I am really sorry about that. Actually, Liliana sent Helen and I to you, so we can destroy you from within, but after being together like this, as if we are friends, it made me realize how much I missed you and how deep my offence is." Hadrulph apologized, then knelt before him. "Forgive me, friend. I really want to leave here, soon and I can't, without my pup, because he is still alive. I will appreciate it if you devise a plan to save my pup and then tell her that you got whiff of our plans and then you have gotten rid of us. Once I have my pup, neither I or my family will show their face." Hadrulph said as a tear fell from his eyes, to the ground. Alpha Connor who had already gotten wind of their plans was not shocked, but he was surprised that Hadrulph would actually turn a new leaf just after this experience. ~ "Wow. So he confessed?" Carolina exclaimed, with her eyes, bulging out.

    “So, how did it go? Did they buy your lies?” Liliana asked, impatiently. “Yes, they did. I guess Connor still trusts me as a friend.” Hadrulph said, with a smirk. “Are you certain that we are safe, playing this game?” Helen asked, feeling frightened. “As long as you do not get caught before you strike.” Liliana said as she used her index finger to raise Helen’s chin. “And Connor will not get a whiff of what’s going on until we hit him hard and it is too late for him to strike back.” Hadrulph smiled, feeling ready to take Connor down, bits by bits. “Good. I love that zeal and confidence. You can both leave.” Liliana said, with a smile on her face. The next day, Alpha Connor mind-linked Jack to come over. When Jack got to Alpha Connor’s house, Alpha Connor came out with Carolina. “Let’s go to the villa.” “Alright, Alpha.” Jack drove them to the villa and then they all gathered in a circle. “Now, here is the update. Hadrulph visited Carolina and I, yesterday and they claimed to

    Alpha Connor woke up with sweats breaking out and then he went to the sitting room to drink water and calm down. Carolina on the other hand was having a dream as well. It seemed those moments were affecting them as well. ...The dream... Carolina's eyes widened as the realization of how dangerous her environment was flashed at the back of her mind. "How did I even end up here? Who brought me down here? What exactly happened?" Carolina asked rhetorically, staring inside the murky water covered with a herd of hungry crocodiles just beneath her. She felt the surface she was standing on wobble and reduce in height, her heart palpitating in so much fear. Carolina staggered slightly but didn't fall because of the chains that were used to securely hold her hands above her head so that she would not free herself. She tugged violently at the chain but it did not show any sign of coming off soon instead she felt very weak on the inside. It was so weird to her because Carolina could rec

    Connor and Carolina were watching a movie when they heard a knock from the door and Connor went to open the door and was shocked to see Hadrulph and Helen. "What are you both doing here?" He asked, with his right eyebrow, raised and didn't want to bother about Helen who was said to have been held hostage and sick. Hadrulph and Helen were both nervous and unsure of how to start. Hardulph was the first to speak. “We came to apologize.” Hadrulph said and cleared his throat. “Apologize? I do not understand what is going on.” Alpha Connor said, looking baffled and staring at them with distrust. “Can we just come in?” Hadrulph asked, looking innocent. Alpha Connor was reluctant to allow them to come in, but Carolina signaled to him that it was fine, so he allowed them to come in and they sat on the couch, but Alpha Connor did not offer them anything. “Now, what do you have to say?” Alpha Connor asked, with his arms, folded. “I just want to apologize for my actions. To be honest, I

    Hadrulph fondled the breast before settling his fingers on the nipple, making her gasp his name. He slowly snaked his tongue up till he got to his ear. He gently picked the tip of it and sucked on it before flicking his tongue into her earlobe. She shivered and purred. Feeling her legs turn to jelly, she quickly placed one of her hands on the wall while the other found his head and ran through his hair. He snaked his free hand under her dress and traced her thigh till he got to her vagina. His hand was so big and it covered her frontals completely. As he tried to find his way in, she widened her legs and shot out her butts, colliding with his hard cock. Her breath was unheaven and just feeling that hardness crushed against her behind was enough to heighten my excitement. I felt myself clenching involuntarily as I widened my legs the more, eagerly waiting for him. The moment he made contact with clits, my body quivered and leaned into him. She must have moaned really loud becaus

    He had his bath and felt refreshed, wore his clothes and went downstairs to the dining room, where Alpha Gerald and Layla were eating their meal already. He looked around and saw that the maids really prepared a bountiful meal today and they were still busy in the kitchen. "Good morning, Alpha Connor. I hope you enjoyed your night?" Alpha Gerald asked, with concern. "Yes, I did. Is there any celebration going on? I can see that the maids are really busy in the kitchen this morning." He asked, hoping to get an answer, because it might be something confidential and they might not want to talk about it. "Uhm.... We are celebrating the day our kingdom gained independence from Black Moon Pack. You know about the story, right?" He asked as he drank his cup of coffee. "Yes. Although, I only know a little out of it." He replied as I moved closer to the dining table. "Yes, that little you know is certainly the main thing that happened.

    He chuckled, because he was funny with what he said. Years back, he had said the same thing, when he asked questions from his father. "Well, it will pay one day. If I didn't do my homework and read well, I might not be able to answer your question." Alpha Connor said, trying to convince the little guy. "Hmmm.... I see." "Well, a few things that I know about stingrays, they are friendly and gentle. The biggest weigh 700 pounds. They are curious and are part of the shark family." Alpha Connor listed and folded my arms. "Whoa... They are one interesting specie." He said, nodding his head slowly. "Thank you, I really appreciate it." He appreciated me, then went back to his parents. The fishes seemed like they were really comfortable in their abode. He had waited about thirty minutes and was beginning to get tired of watching these gloomy looking fishes. Then someone tapped him and he looked back. "I'm back. Sorry I kept you waiting."
