“I still feel a slight headache, but aside from that I'm doing okay, thanks,” Aria said to Camille.

“That's a relief,” Camille answered.

Aria rested her back on the headboard as she sat up on the bed, suddenly remembering that she had not been able to meet Mabel during the reception. Although she already had an idea that Mabel was not quite fond of her, having overheard her and Damien talking while she was asleep—pretending to still be asleep.

Even Aria could not understand the strangeness he had been feeling since she stepped into that house. Sometimes she doubted herself that, even though it was very hard to accept it, she might be a source of bad luck like everyone always said she was. Nonetheless Aria knew she had to prove herself worthy to Mabel if not anyone else.

If they thought she was bad luck then she had to prove otherwise.

‘Oh no what must she be thinking of me right now?’ she murmured in her head and worried about how she was going to try and fix the first impression s

    “They abandoned you? Why?”This was one of the many questions Mabel had for Aria. Upon asking for her family and where they live, Aria revealed that she was abandoned by family because they thought she was bad luck. Even knowing that this information would make Mabel more sceptical about her, she decided not to hide it, to cover or for the fact that she would not tell anyone she was the daughter of Alpha Hendricks or was an identical twin to another all that she had even been banished from a whole pack.“Because they believe I'm not going to bring glory to the clan, and I'm a source of bad luck…”This was more reason for Mabel to believe that she had been right about the strange energy she felt around Aria when she had first seen her. If her family had let her go from their midst because of that, was it right for them to make her stay?Making her leave also wasn't a wise decision, because whether a second chance mate or not, she was still chosen for the Alpha for a reason. Mabel was t

    Aria wanted to be alone. It was so confusing that she always managed to make things hard for others without lifting a finger. She wished no one would try to interfere with the quiet time she wanted to have. Heavily covered under the blankets, she sucked and sniffled, hearing constant knocks on her door. She never asked to be the maid to an Alpha, she just wanted to live a normal life like a normal person. Was that so much to ask for? She recalled the look of evil in Mabel's eyes when she called her evil to her face. Even the look that man gave her in that room made her shudder. it was almost as if he was considering the possibility of it being true. or maybe she was just overthinking because of how hurt she felt. Mabel turned again on the bed and buried her face in it, soaking it in her tears. Now that Mabel openly showed her disapproval of her, she knew she was going to be working on strings from then on. She had been wrong to think that being the chosen second mate of the Alpha wa

    “Good day, dad,” Terry greeted as soon as he entered his dad's office.Tyson did not look up from the bunch of files in front of him in response to his greeting. Terry worked for that into the room and stopped a few inches in front of his father's desk. “Good day, dad,” Terry repeated, a little more loudly than the first.“And what is good about the day?” Tyson finally answered, still not raising his head, the only thing he raised was his spectacles further up the bridge of his nose. “I'm sorry for not showing up the other day, I got caught up with another business,” he tried to apologize. Tyson was tired of his son's frequent childishness, or rather his lack of interest in their work. “Excuses excuses excuses! That's all you know how to do! you already had a story cooked up as an explanation, right?” His father fumed and slammed his palm so hard over his desk that anyone in the room would have felt the vibration it caused.“I'm sorry that I'll try to do better next time,” they reb

    The room was quiet for a long time and Mike didn’t have to be told that something crucial was about to come up. The evidence was in Terry’s facial expression. “I don’t have all the time in the world, Terry; what is the matter?”“I need your help,” Terry started and Mike started to wave him aside while muttering words he couldn’t hear but knew where clearly dismissive, “I know! I know that you think—I’m back again and I know you think I sound like a brown record at this point, but it’s the last time, I promise.” “You do sound like a broken record,” Mike snapped before bending over to pick up the pieces of the vase carefully. “I’m listening to you anyway, what’s it this time?” “I need your company bus, Mike?”“What?” Mike looked up and the pieces he’d gathered fell from his hands, making a loud noise. “What did you say?”“Listen I—,”“It’s not happening, Terry. I’m never involving myself or my business with your shady deals anymore, alright?”“Hear me out for a minute will you?”“I d

She fought the heavily bodied men with all her strength only to be suppressed and carried away into the sketchy part of town and into an abandoned warehouse.The insides of the warehouse were dark and dusty with rusted and old factory materials stored haphazardly within the poorly maintained building which had leakages almost at every turn.Its smell was pretty much toxic from the smoking of the thugs camped in the abandoned space alongside the unkept state it'd been left in.Ellie was tied on a wooden chair, her hands were behind her back in restraint and each of her feet was tied up with the legs of the chair.

    Her head ran in different places she panted on her bed, both scared and enraged. Even while still being a threat to her and her baby, she dared to appear in her dream. While in her bed, Ellie contemplated going to her father's house that midnight. But remembering what's the seer had told her, it was hard for her to make a decision.‘….You will have to perform the indoor lunar rituals every seven days at a new altar you will prepare on your own. Secondly, do your best to avoid visiting public places within the 9-month period of your pregnancy….’ these words rang in her head.“No, I have to go see father, just this once.

She had been summoned here by an ancient prophecy, one that said a chosen one would come to rectify a mistake made long ago.The priestess opened her eyes and looked around expectantly, but no one was there with her except for a slight breeze rustling through the trees.
