Twin Hearts,Broken Bonds CHAPTER 29
Damion’s POVI can't believe I had been a fool to fall for that prank.To think that I had stormed out there with so much confidence only to make a mockery of myself.I got into my office and slumped in my seat. I knocked over a couple of the files arranged on my desk. It took everything not to smash my coffee mug across the room.My ears caught laughter. It came from the door. I looked up to see Logan striding into my office with his stomach in his hand."You have a lot of balls coming in here after that foolish stunt you just pulled. I should order your execution and make it public," I snapped.He was the only person who could even think of pulling something like this off without being skinned alive.He waved off my words. "Don't be so pent up. I was just trying to have a laugh.""Is that all? You had to go that far to make a mockery of me just to satisfy your humor?!" I yelled.His smile vanished at the sound of my tone. "So sorry. I had no idea you would take it so far. You said y

Lyra(Mia's )POVI spent all my time on one piece of work. Since I had just a month to prove myself, I decided to use my first day well.Usually, I got off my designs in an hour. But this wasn't just putting pen to paper.There was a lot of research to be done. The stack of fashion magazines in the corner of my table had a lot to say about that.I had spent the last two hours going through them, trying to familiarize myself with enough material to come up with a dress that was as mouth-watering as it was trendy.Honestly, a lot had changed since the last time I was here. People preferred to style their clothing a lot more differently.Don't get me wrong, the enticingly revealing niche is admirable, but just usually. It's going to take a while for me to come along."You seem to be doing pretty well," a voice muttered behind me.I cursed under my breath as silently as I could, holding my soul as it attempted to leap from my skin."How long have you been standing there?" I asked, looking

Lyra(Mia’s)POV.The interviewer was in awe hearing the message. “What are you talking about, Laura? I am the one who is the head of the unit.”Laura looked between the interviewer and me. She smiled and then placed a piece of document on the table.The interviewer picked up the document and her eyes widened as she read through it.“No you aren't anymore. Here is a direct order from Alpha Damion. From now on, I am the new head of the fabrics unit.”The interviewer bowed in shame. “Am I being kicked out of the unit?”“No. Just go and do something else. I'm taking over from now on.”I watched the scene in front of me with horror. How unlucky was I? Just when it got to my turn, the universe sent an impossible challenge my way.The interviewer walked out and I watched with regret. Had I not handed in my designs early I would have walked away and not given her a chance to make mockery of me.She smirked as she slipped into his chair. The first document she picked up was mine.“When did you

Lyra(Mia’s)POV Well, that wasn't unexpected. But surprising nonetheless. At least Laura wasn't a total failure, she had managed to yank the paper right in the middle of the bin with the old company of shred fabric pieces, other unwanted design and the remains of an apple that had just been chewed on. I looked between her and the dustbin that was a couple of metres away from where she sat.“Move away already! Why are you holding up the line?” Someone behind me groaned in protest. I didn't get to see the protester but I was hurt by his words nonetheless.My face hung in shame as I turned around. “You better not come back here unless you have a better design.” “Keep walking,” I whispered to myself. If I turned my back for more than a second, my fist was surely going to end up in her jaw. Why did she just have to get on my nerves? They were a lot of people she could have picked on? She should just leave me alone!“What an embarrassment!” Laura mocked. “Everyone come and see your Luna

Damion’s POV A week had passed, and it was time for the presentation.The investors were already in the conference room, waiting for the showcase of our best designs.I stayed in the office trying to keep my heart settled. But I didn't know what was more difficult; assuring myself the designs are perfect or walking to the conference room where my guests were seated patiently. “They are waiting for you. Come on already,” Logan said, bursting into my office. “I am running out of excuses and so is their patience.” I had taken the excuse of having to use the restroom so I could use the restroom for a bit. It was a lie. I had been seated in my chair for the past five minutes in deep thought. “You think I don't know that?” I snapped. “Then what is it?” “I don't think we are going to win them over. It's a shame that we had this great chance and somehow managed to make a mess of ourselves,” I groaned. “Oh come on. Your words are nothing but an insult from a man who doesn't have any fai

Lyra(Mia’s)POV.My palms were getting sweaty. Having all those eyes pointed in my face made me rethink coming in here. I had trusted my instincts yet again; my instincts coupled with some motivation from Sandra. If Logan wasn't going to let me in, I was going to let myself in; that's the mindset that had ended me up in this pickle. I took a glance at where I was. A couple of steps away from me to the side of the room, I could spot the other designers staring at me. They were bitter, standing besides there rejected work. They must be hoping my work would turn out the same way as theirs, especially Laura. I saw Logan walking over to me and I froze. He had a curt smile which I couldn't place if it was genuine or not. “Hi,” I managed to mutter without cracking my voice.“Don't bother with the pleasantries,” he snapped. “Just make sure you bring this home. If you mess this up more than this, you are going to walk out of the door and never come back.”“Great motivation, Logan!” I mutter

Damion’s POV. A barge into my office startled me. I was just getting into my nap, but the noise shot my soul straight from my body. I only relaxed when I saw the intruder was Logan. “Are you trying to give me a heart attack?” He walked into the room with raised cheeks and a wide smile. “Have you read the new bulletin for today?” I rubbed off what remained of slumber in my eyes. “No, I haven't. Should I be worried?” He sighed, placing a tablet in front of me. “I'm not going to ruin the fun for you. Go through it yourself.” He didn't have to say it. As soon as that tablet landed on the table, I pulled it toward myself and began scrolling. The first headline caught my eye. "NEW BREAKTHROUGH TALENT STUNS THE FASHION WORLD; PURE TALENT IN AN UNLIKELY PLACE!" Right below it was a picture of Mia smiling. I recalled that image. It was taken on the night of her coronation. Just beside her was a picture of the dress she had presented. It was trending. All the top

Lyra(Mia’s)POV This man's lips were soft. He held me close enough to feel his heart strumming against mine. Should he let me go? Hell no! If there was a way we could get any closer than this, I would not mind. If he pulled me any closer, he would for sure crush me under his grip. My hands went over his shoulders as I held him close. His body felt familiar, felt perfect against mine. It was a raw, sensual entwining. How could I feel this much attachment to a man who had just bullied me a couple of minutes ago? I knew damn well he was a heartless cheat, but still, I was clinging to him like my life depended on it. His tongue reached deep, fighting for dominion. I was the helpless maiden craving more. He conquered me, and I submitted. I tugged at his clothes, trying to rip them off his skin. I wanted more, and I needed it quickly. I wanted to feel those rigid outlines that always tensed up under his chest whenever he was losing his mind. I wanted to run my hands along his

Lyra(Mia's)POV I didn't have peace of mind until I got back to the palace. It was tempting to let myself go, but I had to put a lock on those loose feelings. Last time, I had ended up losing my life. Who knows what was going to be my fate this time? As usual, the festivities welcomed me as I drove through the streets. Sandra wasn't kidding when she said that everyone was excited about this night. I had witnessed it firsthand. The only thing I was worried about the most was getting back to Alpha Damion. I hoped that he would be in a better mood than when I had left him this morning. He wasn't mean to me. He was absent. I had only seen him all morning except for the one time he had delegated today's management to me. I met Logan at the door. "Happy festivities," I exclaimed. The cheerful mood had infected me. "Oh, someone is in a bitter mood." His face was not in the least inviting. If flares could kill, the doorway would have been painted red and splattered with bits of

Lyra(Mia’s) POV Xander had really been a pain in the butt, and I mean that metaphorically for all you dirty-minded fellas in the house. For some reason—which he didn't spill—he had me driving all around town just to avoid cops. I kept my hand on the wheel with the impression that I was harboring a criminal. As a Luna, that was not an impression you wanted people to have of you. We had spent over an hour trying to keep our tracks covered before I could finally sneak him through the gate. By the time I had dropped him off at the spot where his car was parked, it was getting to nightfall. I had lost the hour I would have used to catch some sleep. "I'm sorry we had to go through all this stress. I promise the next time won't be like this." I shot him a glare. I wished there wasn’t a second time, that I wouldn't get to see him again for the rest of my life. But wishes were horses, and I had no idea how to ride. I had to see him again. It was the only way my plan for revenge w
Twin Hearts,Broken Bonds CHAPTER 41
Damion’s POV “Come off it, Laura!” I snapped. “How many times have I told you to stay out of my business with Mia?!”Everything about this situation was wrong.For one, she had no reason to be here. I had no clue how she managed to get past the guards without being stopped.And now, she knew I was in a bunker. It was only a matter of time before everyone started asking questions.That was something I wasn't ready for—questions being asked. “This is not a prank, Alpha Damion. If you don’t believe me, you can pick up the envelope and check out the pictures yourself.” I wanted to push her out of the room along with the package she had brought with her. But curiosity had held me in bondage and wouldn’t loosen its grip until I satisfied it. I tore open the envelope, making sure not to destroy its contents. Right in front of me were pictures that I disliked as soon as my eyes fell on them. “What the hell?” I muttered to myself, feeling my butt give way as I fell back onto the couc
Twin Hearts,Broken Bonds CHAPTER 40
Damion's POV I turned around in my bed restlessly. Being locked up in my room all morning was not the best kind of treatment, but it was the only way I could keep myself in check. I got down from the bed, unable to get any rest. I paced around the room, which was awfully quiet. It was more like a bunker than a room. There was only one way in and out, and the door could only be opened from the outside. It was stocked to the brim with snacks and as many groceries as I needed for the night. That was all I would need for the night. There was nothing I didn't have…well, except for liquor. My mother was of the opinion that it was better to go through the night without getting my head riled up. All I had that connected me to the other side of the bunker door was a button that sat at the top of my bedstead. One push, and a maid would find her way in here.Ohh well…I am being imprisoned. And it is for the greater good of everyone.Sad to say what the reason was,“But I am a monster.”
Twin Hearts,Broken Bonds CHAPTER 39
Lyra(Mia’s) POV.A day in the office was everything you would expect. It was hectic to the core. The demand for drafts were alarming and the workload threatened to break my shoulders. I barely got the chance to get up and have myself a feel of lunch. I had to eat my bagel at my table. I was working twice as hard as everyone else at work and that was no pun intended. Everyone was looking up to me to maintain my fame and the only way to do that was to milk out more beautiful designs. “You look like you're about to pass out,” Sandra sympathised with me. “Where the hell is the Alpha? He is the one who is supposed to handle all these schedules, not you.” I sighed in resignation. “I don't have any reason to complain or question his actions. I'm just doing what is expected from me, my job!” I had a feeling that something wasn't right with Alpha Damion. It was unlike him to stay away from work, worst of all to stay away from work on a day when he has all these important meetings.“This i

Xander's POV He who tickles the balls of the tiger should be ready to wrestle. That is a popular saying, and most of the time, it gives a glimpse into what is going to happen. But it wasn't what happened in my case. Damion had formed his own pack and had tried to take over my business. I had promised to strike back, but I had been impotent at fighting against the pressure. I had promised that I would show him a violent side of myself, but I had failed to fight back. He had walked into my pack and trampled on me. And I didn't have a say. How much weaker could I prove myself to be? Just when I thought I had my peace, someone rushed into the room without bothering to knock. I looked up to see Nyla at the door, walking toward me. “You have become lazy, Xander. You have indoors all day. Are you not aware you're supposed to be coordinating affairs around the office?” “Don't bother me with your yapping this afternoon, Nyla,” I snapped. “If you don't have something important t
Twin Hearts,Broken Bonds CHAPTER 37
Damion’s POV I have been holding it in for too long. My feelings toward Mia have been like a rash that wouldn't go away no matter which ointments I applied. I was not used to feeling this way about a woman. The only feelings my heart had known to process until this moment were lust. Love was not on the cards for me, especially toward the woman I hated the most in the world. “What?” she asked, and I lifted my chin to look at her. It was hard enough that I confessed. Had this change not shown up, I would have probably ended up bottling it in for the rest of my life. But her question had struck the well deep enough to bring forth a pool of my secrets. “It's the only explanation for this unusual desire I have toward you. It's like I want you to be mine and mine only. I hate this feeling. I want it to go away, and I hope if I fight it long and well enough, it will eventually ease off,” I struggled to confess. This wasn't a feeling that had begun from the moment I kissed her. It
