DELVINI took a sip of my drink and frowned as I hated the taste —The liquid had more ethanol that I usually like. I had asked for some water and fruit drinks to adjust for a change, it was strange how far went by these days leaving me unchanged.I was about to call my assistant to get me something else when the door to my study opened. At first I was startled as I was expecting no one at that moment.They were invading my thoughts and it was something I very much hated .“Alpha Delvin, someone is here to see you."There was a glint in her voice that I couldn't quite unveil at that moment as my mind kept wandering in who yeh certain someone could be.I was about to say send her in when I saw her looking through the door, she was Right there and I couldn't believe it.The moment she barged in, welcoming herself in before I could give the command myself. I rolled my eyes at her before sending my assistant away.It was her scent that got me, it was alluringly different from what I was
DELVIN What was I going to do? The question kept flashing through my mind, reminding me that I couldn't just dlt the sleeping dog lie, I had to do something about this whole mess, as that was exactly what the whole situation was. It was hard to comprehend and I was trying all I could to get it over my mind, yet my heart was too hard to sink into every bit of these words. "Mike?' I fell back leaning against the wall Sofa close to where he was swirling my finger over the edge of my drink, the truth was I didn't know what to say. At that moment I was not with a clear head, I doubted if I would have anything to say if that wasnt even the case as.well. “Do you have an idea why she is doing this?" I asked perhaps he should have an idea what all of this is about, better experience…anything He scrunched up his face. “How do you expect to know?" He asked, throwing his hands as I looked at him briskly. “I know. I’m just trying to understand if—" I took a deep breath and sighed. "You
DELVINThe voice reminded me of Mike and myself conversation as we walked out of his apartment.“Should I go pick Ava up at the airport or you’re going to do it yourself?” Mike asked me as we head out of the house.I was feeling so tired that morning that I didn’t even feel like going anywhere. My mind has been on Laura for too long and it was trying to drive me crazy. “No, you can go pick her up, I’ll be right here.” I said and Mike nodded …I almost forgot Ava was in the picture until she called me yesterday night to be sure I didn’t forget she was coming back today.I felt excited that she would be the one to get Laura out of my mind for good. I didn’t need Laura at all and I only cared about her because of my son.It was probably just because of the other day and it was all some mixed up feelings and I hoped it would go away very soon.I knew that she liked that asshole called Steve but I knew that sooner or later I would be secluded from the picture and might even be asked to s
DELVINShe finally walked down and I held her hands into mine.“You look so beautiful today.” I said holding her closely to me.“Thank you.” She said plainly.I could see she was still a little bit upset but she agreed to come with me and I was certain that she was going to forgive me after today's dinner.“It’s better worth it.” She scoffed and pulled her closely to me and gently pecked her head.“Trust me.” I said and gently helped her out of the house as she was looking extraordinarily beautiful that evening.“ and we drove her to a famous restaurant I heard about. I have never been there before but everything about it looked so good that I wanted to try it out.“Where are we going ?” She asked during the ride but I wanted it to be a surprise because if I tell her now, she won’t be left anticipating again.“It’s a surprise, you are going to see when we get there.” I said calmly and she remained quiet.We walked into the restaurant with so many beautiful decorations hanging, it was
LAURAI couldn't keep still even as Steve drove as fast as he could all the way back home."Are you sure you're fine?" Steve asked worriedly."I'm fine, just drive." I half barked.He looked surprised and also worried so he stepped on the pedals and drove even faster, I felt my blood boil and the irresistible urge to just scream my head off and strangle who made me angry. Steve began to annoy me and I thought if getting rid of him, I tapped my foot impatiently and hissed at intervals.I almost jumped out of the car after swearing loudly when the door wouldn't open the moment Steve parked the car at the parking lot. When the door gave way I hopped down and walked briskly into he house while Steve tried hard to catch up with me. The clanging of my heels on the titles floor resonated throughout the entire house and it annoyed me even more as I remembered how Ava's heels made the same sound when she approached us.I took off the heels halfway up the stairs and threw them away. I stopped d
LAURAFor a long, I had a gut feeling that Steve was hiding something from me. Something very important but I couldn’t figure out what it was. For the most part of the day my mind has been very occupied with that file I saw him with earlier.Judging by how he behaved when I entered the office, I knew them and there was something vital in that file. Something he would never let me see intentionally. Something he was hiding from me. And I wasn’t just going to sit back and allow him to sneakily move around under my nose. I was going to make a move to find out what it was and in order to get to the bottom of this, the first thing to do is to get a hold of that file which was why I was making my way to his office at the moment.I moved steadily, one foot after the other, taking my time to prevent my feet from making any sound and at the same time being very careful so I wouldn’t ram into any wall in the darkness that surrounded me.The night was far gone and the whole house was covered in
STEVE'S POVHearing a car pull up, I shifted the curtain aside and looked out of the study window. I saw what seemed to be Ava's familiar figure round the corner.Her back was to me, but a moment later, she looked in my direction. Yes. It was her alright. A knock sounded on the door of my study moments later.I was on my feet before it could be repeated, heading towards the door. In my haste to get there, some knick knacks on my desk got disarranged.I quickly unlocked the door and jerked it open before the knock could be repeated. I grabbed Ava's arm and pulled her into the room. I quickly looked up and down the corridor to satisfy myself that no one saw her come in.There was no one there. I breathed a little more easily and turned to face Ava. She was rubbing her arm and looking at me reproachfully, her lips turned down in a pout. "You almost bruised me, you know," she said."I am sorry about that, Ava. I did it for obvious reasons." When she still continued frowning, I added. "S
LAURA It was a beautiful and sunny day to be in the mall. I had to get some items so I decided to take Dennis along with me. He was in a blue pair of shorts and a red shirt. He was murmuring words as I held him by his hand as he tagged along. Dennis gets too excited at the slightest provocation, and I wasn’t ready to lose him in the huge crowd. I knew he didn’t like to be held, he often likes to be free and I wasn’t giving him that.“Mommy! Look!” He hollered which made me lose focus. Before I knew it, I already saw his little legs moving so fast towards the elevator. I saw Delvin at the entrance of the elevator, it looked like he was just stepping out of it. It made my heart boil as I ran in order to meet up with Dennis. I wondered what got Dennis so excited that he ran towards him. This made me very worried and concerned for him because that was the same thing he did when Delvin came to my house. I wondered why he felt so comfortable around Delvin.I watched as Dennis fell flat on
LAURASteve has been staring at me since we left the house and I was feeling more and more uncomfortable, one wouldn't blame me as it was hard to trust this man after what he had done.He looked mesmerizing I must say and I was afraid he’d do something again and I was trying to avoid being in that situation again.If this was the price to pay, I most definitely would …it was just one party— dinner anywaysHe hurried in front of me to open the car door and I raised a perplexed eyebrow at him, if I wanted my forgiveness he had to do a lot more than that.I forced a little grateful smile before slipping into the car in gratitude and I guess it sparked something off him.I glanced up at him when I realized he was still staring at me. He looked like he wanted to say something but decided against it —Finally, he closed the car door and turned around to the other side still with that strange look.“I’m sorry about what… you know, what I did to you.”He didn’t want to say it but I knew h
LAURAThe moment I heard a knock on the door my mind kept drifting off on who it could possibly be, my phone was still there in my hands as my heart was heaving in rage as I walked slowly.Just as I guessed…Steve was right there again, I wonder to myself why he didn't always get the cue to stay away.He had been on my neck ever since we got back and at this moment I was starting to feel rather frustrated from his antics."Can we talk?" He asked but I was in no mood for long speeches .I stood there akimbo looking deep into those eyes with dark edge's.He had been drinking again, the stench of alcohol gave him away easily."I—" I was about speaking when he merely brushed past me.I couldn't help but imagine what was going through his mind at the moment.I looked back at him as he walked into the room , I could have sworn that I had a bit of disdain but it was all just that, I couldn't help the feeling…I sighed in relief when he moved toward the open window rather than toward me as I
LAURAEven after we arrived home, I tried all I could to stay as far away from Steve as the house could permit. After everything he did to me, the last thing I wanted was to be anywhere near him. He of course tried multiple times to get close to me but I simply just shut him out or shut the door in his face.That was the best thing to do in a situation like this. I couldn’t stand Steve and I am afraid if I was anywhere near him at the moment, I could say hurtful things to him that I won’t be able to take back. Heck I felt so bitter and dreaded even coming close to seeing his face. Whenever I happen to see him around the house, there is this hurtful feeling that tugged at my heart and urged me to strangle him to death after I told him just how much I hated and despised him for doing what he did. So to avoid all these, I took the best decision of just staying inside my room and only stepping out of it when utterly and completely necessary.As I lay on my bed, rolling from one side of it
STEVEI Couldn't help but feel a kind of guilt and it was hard to explain as I had taken advantage of a woman I claimed to love while in my full senses as much as I liked to think about it, it was hard to erase my mind from it at the moment.We drove in silence back home, Laura stayed glued to a spot.Though she had later given in to the sex, we had I could see that what happened really broke her.I wanted her even if a lot of things are tied down to the fact that I had lots of benefitsStill it hurt to see her that way, I wished that I could just take away the feelings she was having and erase the last few hours.Music played slowly from the radio as condensation trickled down the car glass.My soul shrinked deeper into the dark spot it was unnoticed.What more could I get from all of this?There was a desire for me to eradicate my sick feeling yet it made me realize there was more to all of this.Still at the back of mind was the call—I said something funny about looking in her di
DELVIN I looked around and I was back in my room as my head was aching badly.I couldn’t sit up straight because of the sharp pain in my head. I tried to shrug it off but it felt like my head was pounding.I gathered up strength and finally sat up. I remembered what happened the previous night and how I started feeling dizzy after taking that particular drink.What was in the drink?As soon as I took it, I started feeling dizzy and tired and it felt like the whole bones in my body suddenly stopped working for a while.I thought it was just a coincidence and I sat down but it didn’t get any better.Instead it became worse and it was like the more time it took, the more effect it had on me. I kept on thinking to be sure I didn’t take anything too strong before taking the drink.I wanted to be sure that I wasn’t making any mistake but before I knew it, I already lost consciousness and now I was back in my room.I looked around but I couldn’t find my phone anywhere near me so I just stop
LAURALaying on the bed, all that flashed through my mind was the fact that I had just been abused by this man—In a way I couldn't think about why he had done this, the fact that I had given myself to him flashed across my mind, I couldn't help it.For what seemed like a minute, I was right there, clutching the duvet close to my Chest in disbelief.A part of me wanted to turn back the hands of time. Deep down I hoped he didn't have to deal with me this way, all it took my mind back to was Delvin.Steve tried to touch me but I stiffened and moved away from where he was."Don't touch me ." I flitched .He withdrew his hands and the contenance on his face showed him sorry.I wasn't going to be treated this way, there was no way I was going to take him as a fool."I am sorry." He apologized.The muscles in his long back flexed, and I watched his from where I was wondering what he is going to do at this next moment.My heart was beating lightly, at the moment I could expect anything from
DELVIN There was always one side to being a werewolf I despised. Not being able to choose the one we loved. I stood in front of a bar at night, blinking neon lights taunting me.I'd recently been mated. This was going to be our first date. I didn't have any reason to hate her, matter of fact, it was unheard of to hate your mate.Still, something in the way she carried herself, the cunning glint to her eyes, her faux demure... It made me detest her with a fury. I took a deep breath as I placed my hand on the bar door handle and pushed it, releasing the breath I'd held in.I spotted her the moment I stepped in. It was hard not to. In a white satin gown with spaghetti straps and a red stiletto heeled shoe.Her hair, a blond bob cut and her tiny lips the same color and shade as her shoe. She looked like a fresh out of highschool virgin, in the midst of biker gangs and strippers.It irked me and she knew it. Infact, I was sure she chose this location, specifically to get on my nerves. The
Steve's POVI drove slowly towards the beach house as the scent of the ocean filled my nostrils. I knew I was going to have a wild ride with Laura but she wouldn't just let me easily and I had to find a way to make her, no matter what.I don't know why but even her looks alone seems to drive me crazy. She was dressed ready for the beach house in her net shirt revealing her bra and bum short and it was seducing me, making me hard but I knew I had to control myself till we get into the house."We're here." I said and she pushed the door open and just then, it hit her arm."Ouch." She moaned. Even her moans were enough to make me go crazy. Damn she's so hot.As soon as she got into our room to settle down, closed the door behind me, locking it tightly. "What are you doing Steve?" She asked with a shocked expression and I just licked my lips as my eyes scanned her body from head to toe."Come here Laura. I want you." I commanded but she refused mumbling some excuses even she couldn't hea
