Damien's POV"I heard that Chase is in the human world" I stared at Dylan, I was seated in his office, trying to make some arrangements of the facilities I'll use why I am here, taking medicines from my house to here is a sure indication that I am treating a werewolf in the human world, I don't want to take such risk, I frowned, damn, Chase is here already? "He doesn't waste time huh!""So, tell me, how's your patient?" I shook my head at Dylan's question, "to be candid, he's not doing good, he's not responding to any of my treatment, I'll have to try something new and for that, I'll need to be here for the time being""You're welcome to stay at my house, Chase wouldn't dare lift a finger against you there""I know, but I don't want to start a fight between the both of you" Dylan raised his brow at my words and stared at me until I raised my hand in surrender, "alright, I know he's no match for you when it comes to fighting, still, Chase is a brute and can stoop to any level, he might
Ariana's POVI stood on the runway and twitched my hands, I was so nervous, I was starting the rehearsal for my calendar face today, and the manager assigned to teach me by Dylan doesn't look too pleased about how nervous I was, damn, I shouldn't have insisted that he assign a tutor to me, he had wanted to teach me himself but I had stopped him and pleaded that someone else does the task and I had also forbade him from coming to my rehearsals, now, I was almost regretting that decision, "come on lady, we do not have forever, get on with it, you think to be the face of our calendar is pretty easy huh, start the walk, one, two, three, start..." I put my hands on my side and nervously held the sides of my cloth, "oh! Come on, do you want to ruin this dress?" I quickly let go of the dress, "I'm so sorry ma'am""Tsk, tsk, everyone just wants to be a model, I wondered what she did that the boss had to choose her" tears threatened to fall, I know I wasn't doing too well but this was my first
Samantha's POVI had just stepped out of my house so I could go to the office when I bumped into that hard chest and the now-familiar scent of Damien, my heart leaped at the sight of him but I quickly squashed the feelings, "what are you doing here? Please leave because I don't even want to set my eyes on you" I said feigning my rage, he simply raised a brow at me and walked past me, straight to Ariana who was standing beside me also prepared and ready to go to the office, "I told you to stop flattering yourself, I'm here for her and not you" he grabbed her hands and they both walked past me, what was going on, my heart bubbled with rage, I thought she was seeing Dylan, how come Damien was now coming to pick her, I grounded my teeth as I stared at the both of them, they both entered the car leaving me standing there, "how dare he? Just yesterday, he was busy kissing me and today he was going out with Ariana" "You can join us if you want" he called out through the window, I rolled my
Ariana's POVI whirled around to see Dylan standing right behind me, why hadn't I felt his presence, perhaps I was too occupied with my thoughts, he took two strides towards me and stared at me, "what won't you tell me?" I looked at Ms. Bennie, who was shaking her head, eyes wide with fear, damn, what was I supposed to do? "Er..er...." He suddenly wrinkled his nose, "cigarette?" His gaze pinned Ms. Bennie, "was that what she wasn't supposed to tell me?" She looked from me to Dylan, realizing the kind of trouble she was in, she quickly knelt, "it was my mistake Sir, please forgive me" damn werewolves, he must have sniffed out the smell, how could I forget that nothing can be hidden from him, although, I wasn't overly fond of Ms. Bennie, I still felt empathy for her, I stared at Dylan, not uttering a word but pleading with him with my eyes to just give her another chance, he took a deep breath, his eyes portraying that he had gotten my message but was in no mood to humor me, damn, if he
Ariana's POVI squealed as Dylan lifted me in his arms as soon as we got to his house, "put me down, someone might see us" I whispered with my eyes scanning around, he put his nose on my shoulder and inhaled deeply, groaning in satisfaction,"I am the boss, no one will question me" he replied as he nibbled my shoulders, I pushed against his chest, "Dylan" he only mumbled as he kept on nibbling my shoulders and earlobe, he kept doing so while walking to his room with me in his arms, he took the front door towards his room and bumped into Ms Greta, "oh I'm so sorry sir.." her eyes widened as she saw me in his arms but she quickly averted her gaze, "No one should come into my room" her gaze went from me to Dylan before replying"yes Sir" and she scurried away, I knew my face was already so red, I flushed from the root of my hair and felt like the ground should just open and swallow me up, Dylan didn't seem to mind that he had just bumped into his housekeeper with me in his arms, "I to
Ariana's POVIt was the day of my big final rehearsals, ever since that last incident, Ms. Bennie had not been responding to my practice, she would just sit and watch me do whatever without any contribution whatsoever, I wondered why she was being so hostile o towards me, I hadn't done anything wrong to her. Today is the day of my big final rehearsals before I'll do my commercial and then it will be aired, although, I had practiced on my own, I was still a nervous wreck, all the models were already seated, waiting to see what I've got that made me to be chosen as the face instead of them, from the corner of my eyes, I saw Samantha smirking, she probably wished I'll fail so I could be replaced."Where is the fashion stylist please?" I managed to rasp in my nervousness and Olivia came forward with her makeup kit and did a retouch on me."Don't be nervous, you look beautiful and on the day of your come out, You will look extremely Smashy" she winked at me before moving out from the stage,
Ariana's POV"Nervous?" Olivia asked and I met her eyes through the mirror, the day has finally arrived, cameras, press, staff, and the boards were already seated and waiting to see the new face of the fashion bureau, I nodded at Olivia's question, I was indeed very nervous, I stared at my reflection in the mirror, I look scared, otherwise there was only reflection of beauty, I took some minute to admire my beauty, Olivia had done a great job, I couldn't believe that the once ugly duckling was the one staring back at me, "You look beautiful" Olivia said, resting her hands on my shoulders. A knock sounded on the door, we both stared at each other, "I guess it's time" I whispered nervously and she nodded, "don't be so nervous, besides, the boss is there for you" I nodded at that reassurance, Dylan's presence will do a lot to calm my nerves, I have to go look for him," do me a favor please, can you help me check if he's already there?""What, he should be there already, no need to worr
Ariana's POV I tried to grab my locket but my hands refused to obey me, Samantha quickly came in front of me and kicked the locket out of reach, "The real face of this woman is about to be exposed, you all will find out that she's nothing but a freak, meet Ariana, the witch" she moved away so that everyone would see me, all eyes were gazing at me as I stayed on the floor on both my hands and knees like I was about to crawl. I felt a rush in my veins, it felt like my blood was boiling hot, my veins were burning, I felt hot, sweats were already dripping from my body, memories bombarded me and suddenly, everything seem too loud and noisy, I held my head to stop it from bursting, that was exactly how it felt, like it was about to burst, pictures of my mother being torn apart by a wolf flashed in, "Nooooo" I screamed wishing the pain will go away, visions of Dylan and Myla hugging, him telling her he loves her flashed in, the pains erupted, I felt myself floating upwards, I was gradually
