Twist of Fate Chapter 43
Zydan-I took Arielle to the spare bedroom upstairs, put her in bed, and covered her with a blanket. I hadn’t wanted to carry her, but she wouldn’t respond when I tried waking her in the car. Now, I wanted to hurry up and go home so I could shower and wash her scent off me.As I turned to leave, Arielle suddenly woke up and grabbed my hand. “Please don’t go.” She pleaded.“I am allowing you to stay here for the time being, but I don’t live here anymore.” I took my hand from hers and stepped out of her reach. “I also want to remind you that I am still married, and it isn’t appropriate for you to hold my hand.”Arielle sat up, and a timid expression fell over her face. “I am sorry. It's just that I am scared and don’t want to be left alone." she murmured.“I will stay in the house until you fall asleep, but that is the best I can do. If you have a problem with that, I will leave now and ask someone else to stay with you.”She said nothing more as she laid her head on the pillow. Leaving
Twist of Fate Chapter 44
Accalia-Over the weekend, I tried to focus on anything except Zydan and Arielle, so I stayed at the Base to study my mother’s things. When I dropped by the house on my way to work to get changed, I noticed Zydan hadn’t been home either. It was probably for the best that we gave each other a little space.“Are you sure you want to go in today?” Silica asked after I was finished getting ready for work.Silica had come with me because I decided to transfer everything I had of my mother's at the apartment back to the Base. I had a feeling I would be spending a lot of time there. I decided that until Zydan got his priorities straight, I didn’t need to stress over him.“I am sure. Even if I don’t want to deal with Zydan or Arielle right now, I still have to go to work. I hope to talk to Jason later and gain insight into this microchip situation. I heard he had studied microchips in college.”“Okay, but if something happens, let me know.”Smiling, I patted Silica on the shoulder. “Don’t wor
Twist of Fate Chapter 45
Zydan-All morning, I have been trying to find clues about where Arielle was six years ago. My only clue was that she had been sent to live abroad a few years prior. There was nothing about when she returned to the country or anything else after that.Obviously, she had returned, but it would help if I knew when. Since I couldn’t find anything, I could only believe that Arielle was telling the truth. The more I tried looking into it, the more intense my migraine became. Why was it so difficult to investigate Arielle’s past?“We have a problem!” Jaxon burst into my office without knocking.“Can’t you knock before you enter?” I sighed as I glanced up at him.“That isn’t important right now. You need to get downstairs. There is an issue between Arielle and Lia, and Arielle fell down the stairs. Lia is…”I was out of my seat and out of my office before Jaxon could finish. As I ran as fast as possible to see what was happening, my thoughts weren’t on Arielle. I was more worried about if Li

Zydan-For the remainder of the day, Arielle didn’t return to work. After finishing my work, I went to seek her out at my house. I found her lying on my bed in my bedroom, reading a book. Although I let it slide last time because I wanted to leave, I wasn’t going to put up with it this time.“Get out.” I demanded.“What is wrong?” Arielle asked, placing the book she was reading next to her on the bed.“This is my room. I want you out.” I entered the room and started packing her items in a duffle bag.After I took her to get her car on Sunday, I followed her to her apartment so she could pack a few things. When we arrived at the house again, I hadn’t gone inside, so I didn’t realize she had moved into my room. As I tossed her stuff carelessly in the bag, Arielle jumped out of bed as if she wasn’t injured at all. I should have known she had only pretended to be hurt at the office.“Why can’t I stay in here?” Arielle tried to stop me from packing her things, but I evaded her every move.
Twist of Fate Chapter 47
Accalia-I felt rejuvenated after spending the rest of the week with my father. It helped that my father hadn’t tried arguing with me about Zydan. Instead, we enjoyed each other's company, went shopping, ate out at various restaurants, and talked about everything except things related to my future.If it weren’t for the fact my father was supposed to be busy the following week, I might have stayed longer. I also knew that I couldn’t keep running from reality. This was the path I had chosen, so I needed to face it.After getting off the plane Friday afternoon, I went directly to the Renegade Base instead of the apartment. I still wasn’t sure if I wanted to see Zydan. When I arrived, Silica practically attacked me with a hug before I could put my kickstand down or turn off my motorcycle.“You have no idea how much I missed you!” Silica had a tight grip around me, nearly squeezing the air out of my lungs.“I was only gone for a few days.” I coughed as I turned off my bike and put my kick
Twist of Fate Chapter 48
Accalia-As Silica’s friend had promised, she finished the dress in time for the event. It turned out better than the sketch she had drawn. She also added an element I hadn’t requested, but I was happy with the final product.The dress's base was a light purple, but it had a second tulle layer of fabric that was a darker shade of purple. No matter what identity I use, my favorite color is still purple. The only changes were the actual style. As Akira, it was more of a gothic style. As Accalia, it was generally a lighter and more elegant style. As Lia, however, I could mix it up.This elegant dress had a gothic flare. Black sequins were scattered over the tulle fabric, while black diamonds covered the corset-style bodice. The only thing I hadn’t asked for was a necklace to accompany the dress, but Silica’s friend gave me a black and purple diamond necklace.She also helped me with my hair and makeup. My makeup was light, and my hair was a messy updo style, giving off the illusion that

Accalia-“I am not going to ask you again,” My father grumbled, his voice muffled by the bedroom door.“Unless you are willing to discuss this, I am not coming out of my room!” I yelled.“This isn’t up for discussion!” His authoritative and thunderous voice echoed through the hallway.My father has never yelled at me, so I knew that I was testing his patience. Since the day I was born, he has doted on me. No matter what I asked for, he gave in to me. I should be the one giving in to him now, but his request was over the top.“I am not going to agree to an arranged marriage.” I mumbled, knowing fully well he could hear me.“I love you, Accalia, but you can’t become the Queen without a King.” His voice softened, but his tone was still demanding.When my great-grandfather was the Alpha King, he helped establish peace with the humans. Now, humans and werewolves co-existed. Other supernatural creatures were still in the dark, but our kind overpopulated the world.Almost five hundred years
Twist of Fate Chapter 2
Zydan- After hanging up the phone with my parents, I crushed my phone in my hand. My assistant and best friend, Jaxon West, opened the filing cabinet on my desk and pulled out a new phone. I had a tendency to break phones, so I had a stock of them in my desk. “Why don’t you just agree to the arranged marriage?” Jaxon asked. Without answering, I grabbed the phone and programmed it. I shouldn’t have to explain why I didn’t want to be forced to marry someone because of their title. Even if I didn’t have someone in mind, I wasn’t interested in marrying someone who was spoiled and pampered. Unlike my parents, I couldn’t care less about someone's title or place in the world. “You would be able to become the Alpha King.” Jaxon said as he sat in the chair across from my desk. Glaring at him, I reached over and grabbed my stapler before throwing it at him. He caught it and returned it to the desk. I knew he was teasing me, which is why I hadn’t thrown it too hard. “Since your parents are
