The Return Of The Divorced Heiress

Vera's POVMy ears had been itching for the arrival of my husband in his black BMW which had just arrived the moment I finished placing all the deliciously cooked dishes on the dining table. Finally, he was here and I could hear the hard brakes screeching to a haut in such a hurry. In the next minute Francis walked into the house looking ghostly.He scanned the house decoration. On the wall was boldly written happy third wedding anniversary, on the table were mouth watery dishes and the aroma was irresistible."Welcome home Francis…” I kissed him on the lips but he did not return my kiss. He must be very tired. I thought to myself while I let him towards the table to eat.."I went through a lot getting everything ready. Do you like it?" I said to him, hoping to get a gleaming response but his words came out coldly."Yes."I frowned hard, even though I was trying to understand that it isn't in the nature of men to pay attention to every detail and perhaps always give compliments. Fran

RAYMOND I stared at her with so much curiosity filling my mind. Why did she run away from getting married to me back then? Did she find me unworthy of her? Was that why she ran in the first place? Maybe she didn't like my status as an illegitimate heir of my family..It wasn't also my choice to get married to her, but I wanted to fulfill a dying wish.I continued to watch her sleep as different questions filled my mind. Vera used to be a very beautiful woman, I've seen her once before, her skin was as fair as snow and her hair was soft as silk and shiny.What has happened to her? She looked so pale, worked out and old. What did Francis Coleman do to my betrothed?.I clenched my fists hard, thinking about all the time she spent together with him..I did my findings about him, he was not a good man. Francis Coleman was involved in cyber fraud and other illegal business activities. How could Vera fall in love and elope with a man as cocky as him?Her face seemed so small, and she was ve

My fists made contact with the leather of the focus mitts in rapid succession."Again. " My coach yelled for the umpteenth time. He would drill me on a combo until it felt like my arms were going to fall off. But that was fine with me. Better to know how to fight and protect myself than be one of those defenseless girls out there."Hyaah! " I yelled out as | threw the last punch in the combo he had just taught me that morning. I had thrown my all into the final blow to signify that I was done with this current lesson, at least for now."Damn Trinity, that hurt. " He growled at me,but instead of looking upset, he was actually smiling. The pride I saw i his eyes made me happy."Sorry, Jim. " I laughed, a small giggle crept into my voice, it was nice seeing how strong I could be.you werent so nitue then Ta say tele was no way you were really a girl. " He laughed when he spoke this time."That was mean, Jim.""It's a compliment and you know it. " My complaining had only made him laugh har

I was sitting at my desk listening to the reports from my personal assistant Noah.He was highly efficient at his job, which meant that the reports always lasted longer than absolutely necessary. He could convey all the information in less time, but there was no telling what the extra info would provide in the long run.He reported on the restless independent wolves living in the next city over. He informed me that the pack whose territory bordered ours, but had significantly less land than us, was causing a bit of a stir with talks of a possible attempt to overthrow me and take my land and people. There was talk of a rogue coven of magic users, witches and warlocks, that had decided to settle in our area. We haven't seen the likes of them in nearly twenty years, according to the elders and the record books.Noah was so thorough and good at his job that I had considered making him my Beta,his grandfather had been my father's Beta after all. But there was all that unpleasantness that his

After I was finished being primped and pampered by Aunt Eve and put in the dress that Grandfather had brought, I was ready for the dreaded gathering. Juniper and the others were going to pick me up on their way, it would be easier for me with them there.When we left my house, which was located in the upper section of the compound thanks to my family's status, or previous status, we headed to the northernmost road. I had lived in the compound my whole life, but even so,I had never actually been to the Alpha's house before. I had gathered with everyone at the clearing where important meetings and events were usually held, unless the weather was too bad. But I had never actually been to the Alpha's residence, and judging by Juniper's response, neither had she."This is actually exciting. " She exclaimed as we drove up the long, long driveway that led up to the Alpha House. At the back of the compound there was a small road, but this road was actually a driveway. All the houses in the com
