CHAPTER 21 – RICHARD"What nonsense are you talking about? We saw each other a week ago. Why do you say it's been a long time?!" Father sputters, forcing out a few moisturized crumbs of food from his mouth.A bit of it lands on the side of my face and it fuels my rage. If you want to spill such disgusting stuff on me, at least be someone I give a fuck about. He certainly doesn't fall in that category.I wipe it off with a towel that's lying on the table. I flash him a deadly glare and he flinches from it. I'm an inch away from jamming my fist into his face."What's gotten into you?!" He asks with a bit of fright, dropping his cutlery. His yell arouses murmurings in the hall. I glance around at the spectators and everyone bows their heads, avoiding my gaze. I don't even recognize any of them. I haven't ever seen them in the other world. They're probably just factors of this world."Yo, man. What's up with you? You're acting really funny." Another voice seizes my attention. I look up
CHAPTER 22 – RICHARD"This way, Master." She obliges and leads the way. I follow her swiftly and she does lead me to an empty room.It's sparse and lavishly decorated, but more than that, it has a bed and a wall. Just the two things I'll be needing."Strip," I demand, working my fast fingers over my belt. I feel my throbbing dick hungry to get right out. If I was in the other world, I would have Lucy's pussy to stick my dick into. But here, I gotta make do with what I have."Wh–what?" Her eyes are hooded in confusion as she stares blankly at me. "Why? I've never fucked you before?" I chuckle dryly, taking off my belt. Surely, the other end has never fucked any of these pussies working here. After all, he was the most honest man on planet Earth. Punk."N-no, Master." She replies shivering, taking a step backward with her gaze still lowered.I place my hands on my waist, taking a few seconds to stare at her. Her big boobs were certainly natural, but they didn't look untouched. Surely,
CHAPTER 23 - JANE (parallel universe)The finishing touch of my makeup has just been applied, and my long lashes are fixed too. I'm being attended to by three different makeup artists that work here in the nightclub and they've been over my face for almost an hour now. As much as this is my every night routine, this part still gets tiring. My butt is beginning to feel tingly from sitting for so long. It's only gonna be a matter of minutes before I snap at them. I hope they get done before then.A knock comes on the door and I turn my head in its direction. This is my private dressing room so whoever knocks has to be looking for me. My eyes lit up with excitement as my best friend, June walks in. As much as my dressing room is off-limits to most people, June isn't one of them.As a top-notch stripper in this nightclub, I have earned much respect and pampering over the one year I've worked here. June also has earned the freedom to come in here at will, even though she doesn't work here
CHAPTER 24 - JANE (Parallel universe)"Tell me. How did it happen? What did you do? Why did he make such a proposal out of the blue? Or has this been going on for a while?" June fires me a lot of questions. Her brown eyes twinkle with curiosity mixed with a bit of…excitement? "No. It was literally out of the blue. I got to work. I was at my desk when he came in with his small entourage. Then his wife walked in too…""That cold hag." June snorts, making a face of disgust."June! Don't call her that." I reprimand her."But it's true. I'm in my mid-twenties and I still haven't seen any woman colder than your boss's wife. She's always dressed like some…""That's enough, June. Please." I say more firmly, shutting up whatever rude remarks she's trying to voice out. "Don't forget she's still my boss's wife. Show the woman a bit of respect.""Okay. Okay. Whatever." She scoffs, waving it off. "So what happened after that?""She walked into his office, and after a few minutes, she ran out in t
CHAPTER 25 – RICHARD"One more bottle of tequila!" I yell out to the bartender, twirling the shot glass in my loose grip. My eyes are getting heavy from a couple of drinks I've had. But it doesn't matter. I plan on getting fucking wasted tonight. The bartender places the bottle in front of me and Ray reaches to grab it. I beat him to it, grabbing the bottle and turning the other way to pour myself a drink."That's enough, man. You drinking way too much." Ray sighs behind me. "Not as much as I plan on," I reply briskly, placing the bottle on the counter. I chug down my drink and it heats my throat, leaving me with a strong urge to pour myself another glass. You could say I'm a fucking addict, but tequila has always been it for me."Dude, what are you talking about? We both know you've never been a good drinker. Booze drives you insane. Makes you do the craziest things. Isn't that why you quit drinking? What the hell is going on with you tonight?!"Yeah, right. I scoffed at his lectur
CHAPTER 26 - RICHARD"I'm fine, dude. Told you already. I bumped my head into something hard and my memories are lagging a bit. But other than that, I'm fucking fine. Don't worry." I say in a firm voice, trying to convince him.He nods, sipping his drink in silence. I'm not dense. I can see on his face that he doesn't believe me a hundred percent. He's probably just tired of bugging me about it, and that's why he's pretending to believe me. But then, I don't honestly care if he believes me or not. I just hope he doesn't bother me anymore with his irritating questions about why I'm acting differently. I'm sick and tired of telling the same lies. He should just give it a rest.We sip our drinks in silence, and I, for once, turn to the crowd to see what's going on. The place is filled with naked, aroused human bodies, caressing each other and fighting to get some pleasure. There's an object of excitement at the podium, I assume, 'cause the men wouldn't quit whistling in that direction.
CHAPTER 27 – RICHARDThe rage that's jabbing at every inch of my nerves is rather monstrous. And if whoever just spilled his drink on me doesn't have a fucking valid reason, I just might snap his neck. I don't care. I've had enough frustrating moments to last the night. I don't need to endure this bullshit."Are you fucking blind or what?!""I'm so sorry…I'm sorry, I didn't·" the voice stops talking.My rage drops a notch as I see who the words are from. It's a female. A sexy human female. Not a werewolf. She's drunk, like fucking tipsy, and even though she's trying to be steady, she keeps slipping and bumping into random bodies.I'm not sore how seeing a drunk, sexy human should make me feel, but right now, I'm fucking pissed and it's all thanks to her whiskey drenching my outfit. The fact that she's almost naked despite her black lace shorts and the lacy top doesn't suffice my rage. It didn't even get my dick hard. Irritation is all I feel right now.She's staring deep into my eyes
CHAPTER 28 – JANE (Parallel Universe)I take a sip of my coffee, and then a bite of my cookies. I don't have much appetite, especially because my mind is running wild. I can't stop thinking about what I'll be telling my boss today. Will I accept his proposal or is it safe to say I'm gonna be officially unemployed starting today?I'm nervous as hell and I just can't stomach the sweet breakfast I made. I can't even relax. My boss occupies my mind and my heart is racing in anxiety. What do I do? How do I solve this problem without losing my job?I can't afford to be unemployed. I got too many bills to pay, that I just can't afford to be unemployed. But fucking my boss doesn't sound appealing either. So what do I do?"Good morning!" June's voice distracts me from my thoughts. I look up and see her coming down the stairs."Hey, girlfriend. Good to see you're finally awake." I smile at her. She kisses my cheek and struts to the kitchen."I had a nice sleep. Thank you so much for not waking
CHAPTER 32 – RICHARD (PARALLEL UNIVERSE)"Who's next?!" Ray yells, as the scruffy, haggard lady scrams out of the office. "Let's just tell them all to go fuck themselves!" I snap at Ray, slamming my hands on the table. Just then, the door opens and another female walks in. She's a little better dressed than the last female, but she's still not Jane, and I'm getting fucking impatient!"Relax, man. We'll get you a fine-ass secretary. I promise." Ray whispers to me, rubbing my arm. His hair is tousled from the stress and I feel a bit of sympathy for him."With the sorry excuses of females walking in through that door, I highly doubt that," I reply with a hiss, standing abruptly that my seat topples behind me.The loud crashing sound makes her flinch, and she lowers her head. I can see her finger quivering in fright around her résumé. She's dead scared from just a crashing sound. What happens if she accidentally gets hired and has to listen to me yell and cuss her ass out every day? She'
CHAPTER 31 - JANE (PARALLEL UNIVERSE)I walk out of the grocery store, steadying the grocery bags in my arms. They're heavy and filled to their brim. It's only a matter of time before I'm tired and need to get a taxi. But for now, I'll just try to enjoy the walk."Jane, wait up!" June sprints slightly to meet me, as we take the sidewalk, heading home. The street is rowdy and crowded so we keep squeezing through bodies and sometimes, bumping into others."Why don't we just grab a taxi already? It's tiring carrying these bags and bumping into people." I sigh, adjusting the weights on my arms. This definitely isn't what I signed up for."Going home with a taxi will make us get home faster, and that's gonna ruin everything.""Ruin what?" I ask confusedly."Your little time outside," June replies, flipping her hair. "C'mon Jane, you've spent weeks brooding and wallowing in misery. You refused to leave the apartment. This is your first time out, in two weeks. You should enjoy the fresh air
CHAPTER 30 - VISHAL (THE FIRST UNIVERSE)Watching the leaves fall from the tree is a little medicinal and it eases a bit of the suffocation I'm feeling in my heart. My fingers are loosely wrapped around the glass of brandy in my hand. I sip from it again, not letting my eyes off the window. It's a bright day and full of good energy but I feel more gloomy than I ever have. Jane has been gone for over a week and there's still no news about her disappearance. Richard has disappeared too. No trace of him or his feral werewolves. It feels like they all just…disappeared. For real. I've combed the entire pack and beyond in my desperate search for my mate, Jane. I've contacted every Alpha of the packs in the region to be on the lookout and let me know if they see her. But no one has any news about her or Richard.It's been frustrating and agonizing for me, waking up each day alone and knowing that my mate is somewhere out there but I can't find her. I take another chug of my brandy, savori
CHAPTER 29 - JANEI stare blankly at him as he gives a husky chuckle strolling to his chair. He pushes it back and slides into it, crossing his legs. I don't bother sitting, so I just remain standing and staring at him.His smirk is flirtatious as he boldly undresses me with his eyes. His eyes linger longer on my lips and he bites his lower lip."So tell me, what's it gonna be?" His husky, deep voice reverberates in the room. My skin flushes from the heat growing between us."Please, Sir. Why don't we talk about this again? Hear me out, please. I don't think·""You're not supposed to think, Jane!" He cuts in, impatiently. "I'm not making an impossible proposal here, so don't make things difficult.""More than you already did?" I ask calmly, but my nerves are ripping apart."I think you got the wrong conception about my proposal, Jane. I'm not making things difficult. On the contrary, I'm here to give you a smooth ride in life." He pushes open the drawer and takes out a checkbook.I wa
