Lia's povAs soon as he left, I didn't know what else to do about the whole thing. I was worried about the whole thing. I turned towards Maya who flashed me a smile. It was as though there was something on her mind. However, we still had a little bit of work and didn't have time to talk to her.I walked towards her, and grabbed her hand, pulling her close. “We are going to talk after work. Do you understand?” I asked with raised brows, and there was still that smile on her lips.“Yes yes, I understand. You don't have to scream it out. I know that there are a lot of things I need to make out for.”I rolled my eyes, and immediately left her there. As soon as I left there, there was an order that was supposed to be taken. Since it was a well-established restaurant, someone special came in last minute, and I needed to work late.“Hello sir, welcome to l’ scrumptious…”He smiled once he heard what I had said, and it was then I noticed he was really happy about what I had said.“Thank you.
Lia's povWe followed through the back door, but I still couldn't get my kind off that stranger. Was she right? Did I have some kind of charm that made me come after me? But if it was supposed to be so, how was Levi not able to stay with me till now. He still saw me as though I wasn't really important?Why did he look at me as though there was something else that was going on. It was as though he knew me before, and was just trying to make me remember him.“Why are you so lost in thoughts my friend?” Maya asked with a smile on her face. She was worried about the way things were, and it seemed as though she knew I was in thoughts.“The man from earlier,” i answered as we strolled by the pavement.“Well, don't tell me you're starting to think about him just because he offered you dinner. I mean, there are so many things that you should have in mind rather than trying to make things harder than they already are.”“Really? He just made me feel so strange. I don't love him, Maya, I'm only
Lia's povWe got out of the vehicle and were shocked that things were awkward. Once the cab driver had been paid, she dragged me into the big store and smiled.“So what kind of clothes do we get you?” She stared at me, but then one of the attendants quickly walked up towards us. She had disdain in her eyes, and the way she stared at me especially made me feel strange.“I'm sorry are you supposed to be here, or you walked into the wrong store? Where you are both supposed to shop is the thrift store. That's if you're been able to afford it.”Maya gasped, but I remained silent.“How dare you talk to us that way! Why are you judging us based on our looks? Don't you know we are capable of busting the entire shop?”The lady immediately scoffed at me, and I did not want trouble. I tried my best to ensure that we had left the place, but Maya was willing to show off.“We aren't going anywhere. We are going to prove to this woman that we can shop here. Bring out the card.” She explained, urging
Levi's pov “Still no news on Kaiden and I was getting really worried. I didn't even know where to start from. Kira was getting more, and more depressed everyday, and it was weird that he left without a trace. What exactly was going on.As I pondered, walking around in my office, I received a call from one of my friends. He was really bothered about the whole thing, and was always telling me that things were going to be all right. I didn't even know whee to start from. It was really strange to understand how everything was going to work, but I know it was going to.“Alpha we have found him, but there's sometimes you need to see,” he explained, and left me pondering on what they could have seen that caused them to act that way. I immediately grabbed my keys, and whatever I needed to meet them, heading their way which caused me to be unhappy. I really wanted to know what would happen. It was as though things were only going to get even more complicated.I immediately stood up, and trie
Lia's povWe went to a simple restaurant to have our meal, and it was so delicious. I was happy with what I had gotten and didn't even want to complain about it.“What's the matter with you?” I asked with raised brows, and Maya furrowed her brows.“Me? Why are you asking me that?” She added, and I suddenly burst into laughter. The way she stared at me was so strange that I had to even laugh because she was looking so funny.“You still don't get the joke do you?” I asked, and she furrowed her brows, still really confused.“You shouldn't do that. That wasn't a joke. I thought you were mad at me. I haven't seen you so seriously before. You're most times serious, but this time, you had me fooled.”“So where are we going next?” I asked and was shocked at the way she was staring at me in confusion. I was sure there were a lot of things to worry about. My hands were shaking, and I wanted something to make me feel better about the things going on.“Hmm, with the way you scared me, I'm going t
Lia's povWhatever it was was given in a small glass which Maya called a shot glass, and the content seemed as clear as water. However, it had a strong smell.Maya picked hers up and down the content at one, showing satisfaction afterward, which made me eager to try. However, I didn't know if I were to call that a mistake, or something else because it tasted really strange.As soon as I gulped it down, it left a burning sensation on my tongue and throat, and I started coughing so hard that Maya started patting my bacon. She knew that I was going through a lot at that moment.“Oh Gosh. I knew you wouldn't be able to take something like this, and that's why I asked you not to take it in the first place. There's a stronger one, and it takes nicer, too.” I raised my head with a frown, my eyes already red. I didn't know whether to trust her, but then It was better if I did because she indirectly warned me about the first one, but I refused to listen.“Are you sure you're fine?” She asked
Lia's pov.I didn't know how long the drive was, but I finally reached my destination. “Here, we are finally at the gate,” Maya expressed, asking me to get out of the cab. However, I suddenly recalled the slap she gave to me and was angry, so I refused.“Get out of the car!” She growled, but I croseed my hands over my chest, and pouted my lips which got her even more mad.“I said get out of the car!” She screamed, and was shocked to see how I became even more serious.She laughed, and turned to the cab driver with pleading eyes. “I'm sorry. She's just a bit drunk.” “Hey!” I screamed, and rushed out of the back seat. “Who told you I'm drunk. You have no idea what you're talking about,” she expressed pointing at a wrong direction which caused her to laugh.“You're crazy. Maybe I should get you drunk so that you can always this jovial. I mean, look at how you changed all because you are jovial didn't this a good story?” She expressed, and I rolled my eyes, staggering when i struggled t
Kira's povI cried like never before. No one told me losing a loved one was this painful. I actually lost my parents when I was really young, and it had been Kaiden and I ever since, but losing my brother was kind of devastating even when I had learned to live without him, I had to pretend ths things were bad.“Please you can't keep doing this to yourself. I know you're pained about the death of your brother, but then you have to at least recover.” “When do I get to see him?” I responded, sniffing. My eyes were already swollen. I didn't even know what else to do about the whole thing. It seemed as though my life was changed.“Soon. My men are working in bringing the body here,but I don't want you to stare at him like this. You're going to get yourself worked up over the issue, and I don't really want that.” “But he was my only brother. I don't even know what else to say about him. I didn't even get to say goodbye, I feel, I feel…” i bursted into tears again.Pain passed through me.
Levi's povI rushed back to the pack house, pacing around. My heart was racing, and I was trying my best to be fine. It seemed like my life was upside down.It was good that I met her. I mean, there were so many things that were on my mind, but the fact that she was acting this way made me worry.“I saw her. Oh my goodness. I saw her. But she doesn't want me. What do I do? I know where she was.”Suddenly, the door pushed open, and My beta rushed towards me. He was worried about the way I was pacing.My face was hardened, and I tried my best to understand that there were a lot of things that were strange to me.“How am I supposed to be sane?”He inched closer, his mind was really worried about me. There was no doubt that things were going wild.“How was the meeting? The guards said you rushed in and didn't want to see anyone. What's the problem?”“The problem? Did you know who I met there?” I asked breathing. I was worried about everything else, and seemed as though things were going h
Lia's pov“You can't tell me there's nothing going on here, and he's just a client. Why are you so tense?” He asked, and I turned to him with my chest pacing.“I ran out of the meeting hall because I don't feel so good, and he came closer to check up on me, nothing else. Now, would you please let it go?” “No I can't! I really care about you, but you don't seem to understand what the matter is.” “Care?” Levi asked. He didn't seem to be helping matters as he was asking too many questions which aroused his suspicions.I wasn't really bothered about the whole thing. All I needed now was a way to ensure that things were alright again. I turned to Levi, and frowned. I knew what he was trying to do, but why now?“Maya?” I faced the person I really needed to talk to. She widened her eyes waiting for my command. “Please ensure that all of his board of directors alongside Mr Levi is escorted out of the meeting hall. I am in no mood to talk to clients today.” Levi furrowed his brows. “You'
Lia's povIt was finally time for another meeting. Last week was stressful, but this week was a new way to start. I didn't want to stress so much, but this company leader coming to see me was so big.“How are you doing?” Maya walked into my office with a cup of coffee. I was worried about the way things were going to be today.“Fine. You're late. The meeting is going to start in one hour, and you came late.”She nodded. “Yeah. I'm sorry. I had a rough night with my boyfriend. I realized the morning was closer than I thought. I'm really sorry about the way things are.”I sighed, rubbing my hands through my hair. “Have you gotten all the documents ready? We don't want to keep our clients waiting. Today marks another big day for the company.”She nodded with a smile on her face, and then moved out of the office after handing me the coffee. I stared at the coffee with a sigh, and then I picked it up, making sure to take a sip.As soon as I took a sip, I felt somewhat refreshed, but for so
Levi's povMy life had been all thorns since I chased Kira away, and even when she tried many means to return, I didn't just want to see her.She had tried pleadings and eventually, she knew I didn't want her anymore. I was so tired of her. She was more than all I needed.The worst part of it all was that things weren't going well for me. For me to get sane, I had to drink alcohol.Drinking to forget my sorrow.“Hello, handsome…” My thoughts were interrupted by a girl in the club. She was hot and was putting on a sparkling dress that was above her knees.“I see you're alone. Would you like me to join you?” She asked with raised brows, and I nodded with a serious face.Indeed, I wanted her to join me, but then I didn't think I was going to spend time here. Besides, it was worse than usual. Today's loneliness was all about why I had left Lia.“You seem troubled. Do you need someone to help you forget all those worries?” She asked and then placed her hands in a purse. “I brought some thi
Johnny's pov.“Yes? Really?!” He exclaimed, and I smiled, nodding my head to his words.“Yes. I know that you are have been trying for too long and besides, the kids are already use to you. It would be nice to also give love a chance. You understand what I mean right?”“Yeah. Thank you so much. I appreciate all you have said. I'm so happy. I don't even know how to express it.”“You can express it anyhow you want to, I don't mind.”His eyes widened. “Should I kiss you on public?”I immediately choked on the drink that I had been sipping all the while.“What?”“Yeah, you asked me to do whatever I want to, and i choose to kiss you. What's wrong with that?”“Nothing. I don't see anything wrong with that. It's not bad to kiss your girlfriend in public, but then we just started dating. I literally just answered yes.”I bowed my head, and he smiled. “Well, it seems someone's shy. Your cheeks are burning up red, and you need to see how tensed you are,” he commented, making me sigh.“I know t
Lia's povIt had been six months, and I didn't know what else to say. My life had been wonderful. It had been filled with different new things, and my children were doing extraordinarily well.“I know you're bothered about some things. I feel a lot of things are on your mind.”“Yes… there are a lot of things happening. You can't seem to understand. Things are not as you see them. Johnny is being a good dad, but then I don't think I want to marry him.”“But why don't you want to marry him? He's a good guy, he made you the woman you want to be, and he also wants you to think about it. He wants you to be sure about your decision. I'll be shocked if you can't make the right decision at this point.”“The kids love him, and it seems like there's a lot to understand from this. If you can give him your heart I'm sure everything would be alright.”“Really?”“Yes,” Maya added with a smile. It seemed that she was certain about the fact that Johnny loved me.Anyone would be certain. I guess many
Kira's pov“Doctor please do something!” I growled, watching how he struggled with his life. This was the only ticket I had towards him loving me again.“We're doing all we can. Please relax…” she explained with worry on her mind. It seemed as though things couldn't work out already.My heart was drumming fast, and I seemed a bit confused about all that was going on. It seemed as though my life wasn't in the right state of mind anymore.I had my hands through my hair, and I was breathing hard. My whole life seemed to be awkward.“Please…” I begged, breathing hard. My bad deeds want to catch up with me.I didn't expect all my plans for the past five years to come rumbling down.There was no need for the things to worry. I was worried about the way he was going to react.As soon as I reached there, I paused. My heart drummed like never before, and it seemed as though I was about to die.After many hours, the doctor came out. He was looking pale, and it made me concerned.“What’s wrong?”
Levi's povI didn't even know what to think. What did they mean that there was a possibility that the boy I had trained up as mine was a fake?I was feeling really bad. It felt like my life was about to crumble. How could she do this to me, knowing fully well that I loved her?“It's not what you think, I swear it's not. I know that you've worked on a lot of things, I can tell, but he's your son. I swear to you, he's your son.”I ground my teeth, and my hands remained fisted. I wasn't sure she could trust her. Not after what happened. She was never to be trusted again.“We'll talk about the matter when you get home,” I said, attempting to walk away. However, she held my hands to pull me back. I could see the serious look on her face.“You're leaving because of some stupid test result? Your son is there fighting for his life and you're leaving?!”“My son? You call him my son? I don't even think he has my blood running through my veins. You've been lying to me all these years,” I said an
Kira's povI was seated at the house when one of the guards rushed to me. I was worried and didn't expect things to get worse when he spoke.“Luna Kira, there seemed to have been an accident at your son's school.”My eyes widened, and I stood up from my seat. It seemed like I didn't hear him well enough, or maybe it was my head playing tricks on me.“What did you just say to me? What did you mean by all you have just said? No!” I growled. My hands were shaking.“Hope my son wasn't affected? I asked, wanting to clear the air. He had earlier said there was an accident, and even when there was tension among other children, I cared about my son.”He started shaking. There was something the guard wasn't telling me, and it was making me sick.I was already tempted to do something, but I didn't have enough information about it“What are you trying to say?” I asked with raised brows. “You are keeping quiet for too long. Was my son affected?!” I screamed.The guard, who seemed confused about
