Chapter five
Levi's POV A smile tilted at the corner of my lips as I admired my reflection in the mirror. I ran my fingers through my hair. I felt different now that Lia and I were no longer together. I was happier with Kira. I grabbed my phone from the nightstand and stepped out of my room. Everything was going well for me at the moment, except for the fact that the pack didn't have a Luna. I knew it was only a matter of time before the news of my divorce with Lia spread through the pack. I needed to act fast and make Kira my new Luna. But first, I needed to get her in with the pack elders. “Hey, handsome.” Kira walked up to me in the hallway. I flashed her a smile. My gaze swept through her body as I took in her appearance. She wore the dress I got for her. It was a red dress with a thigh-high slit. She looked stunning in it. “You look so beautiful,” I whispered into her ears. Her cheeks turned red as she blushed hard. She linked her arm with mine and we descended the stairs together. I felt powerful with her beside me. She was elegant and very classy. “Are we meeting with the pack elders today?” She asked. “Yes, my love.” “Do you think they will like me?” She asked in a low voice. “I'm sure they will love you.” I grabbed her chin and gave her a deep kiss on the lips. “Someone is being romantic.” She threw me a seductive smile as we broke the kiss. I suddenly became rock-hard just staring at her highly seductive body. She saw the lust in my eyes and smirked. “Let's get back from the party, mister. Don't hurl me over your shoulder and carry me to the bedroom, please.” We shared a laugh. I opened the car door for her to step in and then got in after her. She places her hand on my chest and leans closer to my body. "You know that," Her hot breath brushes through my skin. *** "Hi, Alpha Liam," I shook hands with the middle-aged Alpha of West Stone. He was one of the most respectable Alpha in the werewolf community. He was loved for his easy going lifestyle "Alpha Levi," He answered, pulling him into a hug instead. "It's been a while since we last saw each other. How have you been?." “I've been doing good. How are you? You look so handsome than the last time I saw you. Your wife must be taking good care of you.” I gestured at the woman beside him. “You can say that again. She spoils me too much.” He laughed. "Alpha Levi," His wife greeted. “Amelia. You look stunning as always.” I said. “Thank you, Alpha.” She made a slight bow. Kira tugged at my arm slightly. She wanted me to introduce myself. I placed my hand on the low of her back and pulled her closer to me. “Allow me to introduce my beautiful date. Alpha Liam, Luna Amelia, meet Kira.” “Hi, nice to meet you.” She extended her hand for her handshake. “Kira.” Alpha Liam called her name as if trying to recall if he knew her. “Nice to meet you too.” He said without accepting Kira’s handshake. Kira dropped her hand, her face flushed with embarrassment. I made soothing circles on her back to console her. “Where is Lia? I haven't seen her today.” Amelia asked. Kira's face fell as she heard those words. My countenance changed and my jaws tightened. “She is not here, Amelia. Kira is.” I said, deliberately adding the last part. “I'm sure that is not what she meant, Levi. Kira is a beautiful lady.” Alpha Liam said. His unspoken words hung in the air. “Not, Alpha Levi. I didn't mean it that way.” Amelia said shyly “We'll leave you two alone,” Liam said before grabbing his wife's arm and walking away. _______ Kira stormed out of the car and marched into the manor. I followed her catching up with her in a few strides. I was brainstorming ways to get her to calm down. I understood her plight. We left the party early. It was terrible. The whole reason we attended in the first place was not even fulfilled. Everyone was asking about Lia. It was irritating to listen to. I was surprised to find out how well-known Lia had become in the few years we were married. We rarely attended any events together. Kira removed her heels as she got to her bedroom. She threw them at the window, shattering it in the process. She ruffled her hair angrily and screamed. "What does she have that I don't, huh? I'm better than her in every way. Why are they so hung up on her?” she yelled. I grabbed her and hugged her tight. I gently stroked her hair. “Give it some time, baby. They will soon fall in love with you when they see how wonderful you are. We just need to show the world that.” “When is that going to be? I want people to accept me soon.” She said, pouting her lips. “They will eventually.” “Levi,” She called, staring deep into my eyes, her face turned serious. “I want you to make me your Luna.” She said, I pulled away from her. “Why are you asking that of me? You know I can't do it.” “Why can't you? You're the Alpha. Everyone listens to you. Don't you love me? Are you deceiving me?” “Kira, of course, I love you. I divorced my wife to be with you. I just can't because I just divorced Luna. People will talk, Kira.” I said. “Excuses. Stupid excuses. If you love me you will make me your Luna.” She said and stormed out, the sound of her sobs trailing behind her. I drew a long sigh. She was right. Everything I said was just an excuse. I could easily make her my Luna if I wanted to but that was the problem. I wasn't ready to make her my Luna yet. I watch as she runs inside screaming and I push my hair back annoyed, Is Kira really worth to be my Luna? I sigh, closing my eyes briefly. 'Did I make a bad choice?'LIA POV“I understand it's too much for you to comprehend, but you have to understand that now is the time when I need you.” I furrowed my brows, my eyes staring at him as he knelt, an atom of shock still on my face.“Be my Luna for a year,” the words were in my head, and I just didn't know how to go about it.My heart hammered in my chest, Andi gulped, sweat forming on my forehead.“You're really funny. I know you're worried, but the expression on your face is something else. I didn't ask you to do something crazy, but be my Luna,” his words reached my ears again, making me stand to my feet.“I'm sorry. I'm just really shocked. That's an unusual request for someone who you just met. Do you want to spend one year with me?”He sighed pushing himself back on his feet, his eyes on me. “That's why you're perfect for the job. One year with a total stranger, who knows?” Johnny paused.“Don't worry; you don't have to worry; I've got you covered. All I need you to do is say yes.” I pressed
Levi's pov.KIra's frustrated sigh left my lips, and I found myself gulping the last content from the bottle of whiskey I opened about thirty minutes ago.Kira wasn't happy ever since I told her I didn't want to marry her now because of what the people would say. She didn't want to look at things from my light.“Why can't she see that I'm trying to protect both our images? I am an alpha and a very successful businessman. People would say I divorced my wife just to be with my side cheek, and I didn't even wait to showcase her.” “Well maybe because you chose her.” I ran my hands through my hair and even sighed. She has helped me throughout the times I was married to that chest, and that's why I decided to be with her because she was really honest, but now I was hurting her.I immediately stood up, pacing around. “Maybe you should pay her a visit.” my wolf suggested, making me sigh. She had refused to come out for breakfast, and when I asked, I was told she didn't eat. She even s
Kaiden’s pov“Ugh!” I growled, slowly trying to get on my feet. There was a lot on my mind, my heart raced, and I was trying my best to not feel pain, but my body ached badly.I almost had her. She would have been mine if he didn't come to save her. Wherever it was that has saved her was surely a strong person because he had the ability to knock me out. Standing up from my bed, I walked towards the door. It was the knock that had called me to get from my bed because I had been in pain for the last couple of days.Upon opening the door, I found Kira standing there. She had a serious look on her face, and a frown on her face as well.Her hands were crossed over her chest and she was trying her best not to kill me with her eyes.“You really have to be calm. I don't see a reason why you show up looking this pissed.”“Why are you still here? I thought you said you were going to disappear with her, right?” Kira asked, and I sighed, turning my back towards her as I walked back into my house
Lia’s POV“Mmm…” I groaned as I struggled to sit up on the bed since I had just woken up.Last night was fun. It was the best time of my life since I faced only pain most of the time before. I was still in thoughts, recalling what happened last night when my eyes were directly towards the door.I heard the handle being pulled open, and I was shocked to see Johnny there with a tray in his hands. It contained a lovely breakfast that smelt absolutely heavenly“Good morning. Someone really looks happy. How are you doing?” He asked, as I passed a small smile. I was shocked that an alpha who was supposed to be on a contract with me as his girlfriend was taking it a bit personal. Too personal.“I'm fine. How was your night?” I threw back the same question to him, and he smiled. Indeed he was trying his best to ensure I was well, maybe he meant every word he said.I thought as I watched him close the door with his legs, and walk closer to where I was with his smile still on.“You were really
Johnny's POV“Let go of me, stop it now!” Once we were out of the room, my elder sister Belle, yanked her hands off mine, and was breathing hard. Because of how she struggled, she got her hair messy, so she fixed it up, cleaning off her sweat with her handkerchief before glaring at me.“You're not fine. Is this what I expect from you? You told me you can handle the kingdom, but it seems like you're slowly turning into a servant!” She screamed at my face again, and I tried to plead with her to lower her tone.“You want me to stop talking? Aren't you ashamed of yourself? You are really something. How can an alpha be holding a tray, and then–” “She's my girlfriend.” At that moment, she paused, and for a second or two, there was total silence until she laughed.“You must be crazy. Are you fucking kidding me?” I asked with raised brows, and she stopped laughing, glaring at me with anger. The seriousness on his face made me have a lump on my throat.I wasn't scared of my sister, but she
Lai’s pov I was feeling really anxious, and even when I really wanted to stay in bed, I wanted to know what Johnny's sister was going to say about the situation.I didn't know what else to say. I was really really worried. My heart kept drumming, and my eyes were fixed at the door. If only he knew what was on my mind, he would have come to clear my doubt.I rnw my hands through my hair, and tried to get on my feet. My heart drummed hard, and my lips were dried. If only he knew what was going on.As soon as my worry increased, the door was pushed open, gaining my attention. My eyes were fixed on the door, and he was standing there.Seeing him excited me. I was so happy I was over the moon. Pushing myself up from the bed with the little strength I had gained, I rushed towards him, and hugged him tightly. “Are you sure you're fine? You seem anxious. I know you're worried about my sister.”He expressed, his hands touching my hair. I noticed that there was something about him. It was as
Johnny's POVHer determination was top much, but I guess I needed to let her go no matter the circumstances. She was all that was need to be. There was definetely something else going on here, and even when I didn't know what she had in mind, an why exactly she needed a job, I intended to let her be free. My heart drummed, but then I needed to let her know I cared about her. That was the only way she was going to trust me. “So when are you starting your job hunting?” I asked, sitting on the bed, as I stroked her hair gently.She smiled, maybe trying to convince me she was ready, or maybe she was about to drop the bomb.“I think you shouldn't worry about it, but if you must know, I'm planning on actually going to look for a job in a restaurant.” As soon as I heard that, I was really confused. I didn't know why she would chose such a lowely place. I wanted her to walk somewhere in other to grow her status. I was willing to do anything for her, and I didn't care how long it was goi
Kira's povI returned home pretty late, but I had a plan in mind. I wanted to go into my room unseen, and then rush to meet with Levi. He must have been waiting for me, and I didn't know what else to do anymore.Once i was able to get to my room without encountering him, I immediately rushed to get ready. There was a smile on my face. I had planned it all, and I knew he wasn't going to be able to forgive me.The rose bath was able to make me feel fresh. My scent amplified, and I smiled happily once I was out. The black lingerie I wore was also really alluring. All these to make sure he didn't take his eyes off me for a split second.“You're looking good. I'm sure he wouldn't be able to take his eyes off you,” my woman responded, as I stared at myself in the mirror while playing with my hair.“Yes you're right,Kiko…” I called the name of my wolf as I made a plan on mind. I was planning how to approach him, and ways to make him fall for me.“Perfect. I'm sure he wouldn't be able
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
Lia's pov“What do you want to call them?” I was shocked by the question because I didn't know what to answer. I was so shocked that I had given birth to triplets. It was so funny how things had turned out to be.“Well, you have to name them. We have kids now, but you can give them names as the mother you are.”I smiled at his words. He was right. I was now a mom, and I had to take a stand on what was going to happen. It didn't matter how.“Hmm, I wonder what I should call them,” I explained, and he smiled.Johnny didn't want to rush me, I was sure, but according to him, the names were needed for the birth certificate.“Can I be given just a little while? I'm sorry that I can't think of a name now because I am stressed.”“Alrighty. There's no problem. I can ask the nurses to give you a few hours to think about it.”I nodded with a smile. A few hours sounded fine. At least I would be able to think of something before then.A smile rested on my lips, and I finally decided to rest my hea
