Antonio’s pov

At Alpha Marcus's question, murmurs enveloped the room, and my gaze casually went to hers which seemed to want to burn a hole through his face had it been possible.

I snickered, calmly resting my chin on my knuckles as I anticipated how she would wriggle out of the spotlight he had put her in. She had seemed so bold and audacious when we had met hours ago. How did she intend to face Alpha Marcus?

“Silence!” King Ray’s voice resonated through the hall, and a pin drop silence instantly followed as everyone submitted under the aura of his wolf. However, their expressions still bore various hints of mixed emotions; dissatisfaction, anger, irritation, annoyance.

“Your majesty…” Alpha Marcus seemed insistent.

“That’s enough, Alpha Marcus. I’d reckon you’d even show the same level of respect to Alpha Jamal if he were here. You’ve been nothing but bitter towards the Rogues.”

“Rogue or not. It still stands that she is the only woman in the room. What could a mere woman like

    NON EX 8Jennita’s povIf I hadn’t been the one to bury Marcus’s head six feet into the ground, Louis would have been more than capable of doing so. Antonio was the last person I was expecting to step in to help me, although a greater part of me who knew him too well knew he’d take his chance to exert power and pain over Marcus.I sat there, feeling a bit furious that he thought he could take the situation into his own hands. My wolf, however, had other ideas. I felt her rearing on the surface, whimpering for her mate. It seemed the mate bond hadn’t been officially broken since he never rejected me.But Three years was enough for her to forget him and hate him like I did, right? But now, Tasha was of no help. I burned in fury, this time around because I realized I couldn’t take my eyes off him.I clenched the sides of my seat, swallowing hard. Oh, Goddess. No. This cannot be happening.Antonio was undeniably handsome. Ugh, he’s still as infuriatingly attractive as ever. Those chiseled

    Jennita’s povIt wasn't until then I realized I had been holding my breath.We both turned away from each other, avoiding each other’s gazes as we apologized for letting the situation escalate out of hand. Well, I did. He just sat there, his jaw clenched, his gaze trying to settle anywhere else but on me.“Your suggestion seemed to be well thought out and strategized, Beta Jennita, but Alpha Antonio is right. Unless we can be able to certify that the spies we’d be sending out would be cautious and easily blend in without drawing major attention to us, we can’t proceed with it.”I nod quietly, feeling my body still brimming in anger from what had just ensued. “Yes, Your Majesty.”The meeting continued, this time, the conversation seemed to flow more naturally between us all. Antonio chipped in once in a while, ensuring to avoid directly answering me, but I could tell as he slouched in his seat, arms folded and head tilted to the side, he looked anything but ecstatic to be here.“That c

    Jennita’s pov“Beta Jennita…” Louis was already on his feet and surprisingly, so was Alpha Darius, but in a few seconds, King Ray’s mate had beaten them and was at my side in a few seconds.“Sit down boys. What do you know you can do in this situation?” She smirked coyly and seeing her up close, I was amazed once again at her beauty, her scent was a light one: flowers and chocolates. Her grey eyes met mine, and the warmth in them dissipated very atom of anger in me built up against Alpha Antonio.I knew he had spilled his drink on me on purpose. Whether it was to rile me up or agitate me, I wasn’t sure what his aim was, but I was not going to give him the attention he was seeking.“Come on dear. I can’t possibly have you return home like this. I have something that will take the stain off in a moment.” She had her hand clasped around my hand as she turned to King Ray, her smirk growing till the fine lines beside her eyes became visible and a warm glow enveloped her.“You better save t

What are you doing here?”I tried to ignore the racing of my heart as I watched him take slow steps towards me, his eyes darkening so I could barely even see the hint of blue in them.“Antonio!” He had yet to say anything, only slowly closing the distance between us. It was like being in a room with a ticking bomb, only, you weren’t aware the time it would explode.A perfectly shaped brow raised slightly, as he met my gaze again, this time challengingly. “You don’t seem scared.”I scoffed. “Of you?

    Antonio’s povHer feeble attempts at pushing me away was cute, but I found it satisfying having her struggle against me. Jennita was never the type to fight back. Even in high school, it had been Alessandra who would always protect her from the bullies because it was well known that no matter what was done to her, she would not lay a single finger on her opponent or bully.In our five years of marriage, I had never laid a single finger on her besides the night she had hurt Alessandra. I never took advantage of her vulnerability as much as I hated how it disgusted me then.But now, there was this thrill of having her fight her arousal for me while trying to push me away as hard as the mate bond seemed to tug us even closer. Three years, three years of searching for her, what did she think was going to happen?Who knew how she made her way so quickly to the Beta’s rank? What could she have possibly known aside from being cooped up in the library all day? I knew my woman better than anyo

Every fiber of my being was screaming at me to close the distance between us right then and have him fuck me senseless. Fucking, stupid mate bond. Fucking stupid jerk.

Goodness, It felt like high school all over again when Helen would accuse me of having a crush on Antonio.“No…” I hope she didn’t see past my firm voice and blank stare, right into the turbulent emotions swaying inside me, threatening me to break down in front of her. “You’re wrong. It’s nothing like that.”For a brief moment, I almost thought I had seen a glint of disappointment flash in her eyes before it disappeared after some fleeting seconds, Almost like it had never appeared there in the first place.“Well, if you don’t want to talk about it, I don’t intend to force you. But you should understand... what I had walked into... if any other person had… “ My heart clenched in pain and I clenched my jaw in anger when I realized that Antonio hadn’t thought twice before he had executed his plan.

Besides, I identified as a Rogue, and almost every corner of the mansion, including the outskirts was littered with King Ray’s men. If I made my move to kill Antonio, I would not only be risking my and Louis’s lives, including our guards, but I would face the royal family’s wrath.“Louis, I’ll meet you in the vehicle…” I reel my anger in and soften my features when I meet the worry in his grey eyes. He would refuse to leave my side if I didn’t assure him I was okay enough to face Antonio.“It will only be a minute. I promise.”After casting a look of fury and frustration towards the man who hadn’t moved an inch from where he was leaning across the pillar, he bowed towards me and left, marching towards the gates with a grimace on his face.I knew making him promise me he wouldn’t tell Jamal anything that had occurred with me and Antonio was not enough.

    Jamal's pov “Jamal… “ she drew in a sharp breath the moment I closed the distance between us. Her eyes, green as rare gems met mine slowly, and it took every bit of self control not to pin her back on the wall and follow my instincts. Th same instincts that had been pushing me for two years now, yet I would never dare without her consent. A gentleman was not a term people would associate me with. But patience, I had patience. I had self control. Only, when I was around her, sometimes the extent of my self control was tested. A sombre expression replaced the hardened one on my face as I calmly let go of her, only stepping a few inches back, so I can look into her eyes when she speaks to me. She was going to to lie, no doubt there, and I hoped she would prove me wrong. “Are you protecting this Alpha? Did he threaten you?” “And even if he did… are you insinuating that could have scared me?” She matched my gaze defiantly, not even cowering under my intense stare- an attribute of he

    Jennita’s pov“Uncle Jamal, what about me?”With folded arms, I follow the voice of my children to the indoor pool house. Jamal’s laughter echoes down the hallway, and I can’t help but smile at the scene I met once I rounded the corner and walked in.The indoor pool house was where Jamal liked to soak in and relax after a tiring business trip, mainly where he just liked to cool down or be alone. The place was spacious with climate-controlled structures, enabling natural light to filter in from the large windows.At its center is an Olympic-sized swimming pool with crystal-clear water, surrounded by smooth tiles decking. The air was warm and slightly humid, carrying the usual faint chlorine scent as I leaned by the entrance, watching the trio with a humorous smirk, a proud gleam in my eyes.The high ceiling featured exposed wooden exams, and modern lighting illuminated the space. A perfect scenery, but it wasn’t compared to the joyous union happening right in the pool.Jamal was leanin

    Antonio’s povMalcolm was leaning against my car when I approached him. When he saw me, he straightened up and casually closed the distance between us. After the accident, I had contacted him to get me another car and he had insisted on coming along but I had refused, insisting I didn’t need him by my side at the meeting.Thus, he had only offered to drive and stay put in the car. I was sure the reason the fucker stayed back was so he could confirm if I was bluffing about having seen Jennita, and the look on his face was well obvious that he had confirmed it.However, my thoughts were filled with her words. She had just found out she was pregnant on that night. The night I brought another woman home. I clenched my fist as a twinge of guilt found its way to my chest, clenching my heart like a vice. I could almost imagine how happy she must have been that night… only for me to shatter it. I didn’t know, but then again, I haven’t ever been the loving spouse to her, nor mate.I wasn’t fig
