Torak Donovan stared blankly at the window, his troubled mind wouldn't stop thinking, he felt so uneasy like never before.'How will the night end?', he asked himself for the hundredth time, In just that few minutes, since he got the news. The old man must have set up this family gathering to honor her.How could he even imagine Anastasia would turn him down at the last minute?What meeting is more important than going to see his father ?Even though the windows are open, he still feels suffocated. He roughly un_do his tie. frustrated, he threw it on the floor.The old man will never stop pestering him until he gives him solid proof that he's in a relationship now. That was why he mentioned Sia to him.Out of my numerous girlfriends, Sia has proven to be different. That is why our relationship has successfully exceeded the normal six months and is now going to two years.Apart from being good in bed, Sia is a social person and very understanding, unlike my other girlfriends who are af
LOLAI held my Chin gracefully high, as I used my a*s to push his chauffeur aside and boldly walked towards him, looking up at him I scoffed loudly " you hit me and you can't even apologize, mister", I drawled." Sorry, but you're mistaken ma'am, I didn't hit you, my driver almost did. Now get into the car. " He ordered, pointing at the car." What is the difference? And why will I get into your car? When I'm fine"this guy must be an arrogant fish." I have to make sure you won't come after me in the future with fake injury and blackmailing me, so please" he stood his ground. It looked like this person wouldn't take no for an answer.I looked up from his expensive shoes up to his neatly styled hair. I really like running into weirdos. What is so special about him? Is he a celebrity or what? I'm also from a wealthy family. Why will I go about blackmailing some arrogant celebrity " excuse me, have you been deceived all your life?" I asked with a mocking smirk. I meant for him to be so f
TorakGlaring at her, I wondered how I got myself entangled with such a stubborn ass like her. I was in a bad mood and didn't need any disturbance, but here she was disrupting every form of silence I needed.I slumped back in my seat, letting her have her way. All I need is her statement, and once I lay my hands on it, she's out of my life forever.I couldn't believe I was admiring her curves moments ago. Imagine how it will feel to be on top of her, but the shiver I got the moment we touched sent off a warning alarm that she was definitely dangerous. I can never forget the last time I had that feeling; the memories will forever remain in my heart to remind me how dangerous that path was.It's just tonight, and she's gone. If our paths don't cross, we will remain strangers.Trust and love will never be on my agenda, and probably until I vanish from this world.Even though Tasha and I were an item, she knows I wasn't in love with her and that I hang out with her because she's a good c
LOLAMy heart shredded to pieces when I saw those two standing there smiling at the camera. I will believe it, Jeff was the same person building a hospital for Leah. While he never stopped telling me how much he hated working ladies , he said I was special to him, he was the only one who really cared for me.But it turned out everything was a charade from the start. They must have been in this together. I was made to flee the scene but something Mr arrogant said made me rethink. He was wrong. No lady deserves to be treated this way. It would be unlike me to just leave this way, recalling how I escaped from the house just to share this day with him even at the risk of being disowned by my father, and this is what I get.I made my way back to them. He was yet to see me, but when he finally did he flinched, but that was only for a moment before I pounced on him, giving no f**k about the consequences. Earlier, I refused to attend Leah's engagement for fear that I would end up bringing her
Torak" How do I look?" Lola said, making a pose.I looked up from the magazine I was going through and my jaw dropped." Wow! You look different and sexy Lola." I complimented her and I saw a blush creep up her face. I smiled. She deserves it." Hm, Lola, I think we should get going, my old man doesn't have that much of a patience and I've kept him waiting for a long time. " I reminded myself." Yah, let's get going then" she stepped out of the makeup studio. While I handled the bill before joining her, I opened the door for her. When she was settled, I looked around us, trying to make sure we were not being followed." Who are you searching for?" She asked immediately. I sat down beside her." No one, just making sure we're not being followed. " I answered, signaling Caleb to hit the road." Followed? Why would anyone want to follow you, it's as if you are some celebrity or politician or some... " She trailed off, " I understand, you are probably checking out for some bad guys, you
LolaI began hastening my pace, trying to catch up with Torak, when out of nowhere I tripped and almost fell, but someone's hand captured me by my waist midway to kissing the ground.I stared at him only to discover our lips were just an inch from meeting. I gulped nervously as if there was this huge lump in my throat when he began leaning in. Was he going to kiss me? Kiss me?! What the hell is going on? What if this is a test? My God! I'm really screwed." What's going on here?" Someone asked to save my ass. He gently let me go, making sure I was stable enough not to fall again. Sobering, I regained my posture while trying to hide the blush on my face as my cheek began to burn. I don't know if this is just me, but I have this feeling that he's doing all this on purpose, flirting with me any time he gets the chance." Tasha," Torak called casually. I turned to the direction he was looking in and just behind me was a down-to-earth beautiful woman with spotless milky white skin. Her red
TorakI wasn't expecting things to get weird and heated, I was just teasing her, not trying to kiss her, but since we're in contact, the pull was so strong that she also couldn't resist. It was a good thing that Tasha interrupted. If not, we would have done something we'll probably regret afterwards. I knew Tasha had the right to be suspicious, but our relationship wasn't based on trust. I made it clear to her from the start, so she got all possessive and interrogative.I knew she wasn't stupid to forfeit a dinner with the Donovans over some stupid business meeting, her parents would probably disown her. She was with me for a reason which was something I was very aware ofOur relationship is built to satisfy her sexual needs. I was never the faithful guy and she cheated on me, which she has every right to, because I don't care. I don't see what gave her the right to be furious when I'm with another lady.Well, I'll just play along with her for the night. My heart hurt like hell when I
LOLAI can't believe I just met Nora. We kept on chatting like two lost friends who had just found each other. Nora was a carefree person, unlike other rich kids would be. She was different, friendly and humble." You girls should enjoy yourselves while I go to greet my friend. " Ryan said, kissing the back of my hand." Nora, make sure you take good care of Lola, you know she's new here, " he playfully instructed Nora, who glared at him with a sneer." Who said you are permitted to leave your bad wolf," Nora said, capturing his hand and refusing to let him leave. Two of them kept dragging it, refusing to back down, while I watched their child-like attitude with envy. It was something I could only wish for, a family who would love and accept me, but Leah would never let that happen. Even though we're twins, I only joined the family when I was eight, so I don't know much about wealthy people's lives. I was relying on my sister for guidance, who would have thought that she was a viper an
{Four years later}TORAKI walked into my office to see note paste on the upper part of my window. " Not again!" I said removing it to see what my stupid son had to say this time." BETRAYAL" was boldly written in capital letters. I folded the paper into a ball instead of kicking it into the trash can. I kicked it directly at the door but unfortunately someone was about to come in, it hit the person directly on the faa.., oh, no I'm dead." Ouch!, Lola screamed holding her baby bump,"" So sorry honey, I was carried away by anger, are you too all right, oh my little angel, daddy didn't do it intentionally…" Lola wiped my hand away from her stomach as she walked past me." You are going to blame it on my son again right?" She asks sitting on my seat," Who else should I possibly blame? , that son of yours has picked interest in making life unbearable for me and you are always at his back! " I wanted to scream these words to her hearing but I dare not, it will only earn more house choic
" Did your mother not teach you how to treat your visitors' pup?!" Welt called out, he could sense eyes on him, but he can't tell how many they are.Lola realizes they are not alone here and quickly takes shelter behind Welt. After all, the devil you know is better than the angel you don't know." Take her name again and I will have your head! "Zara threatened, he saw Welt arrive with someone but, the old blade is yet to step foot on the particular spot he wants him to. Laughing welt walked towards the double door, just right!. His foot got stuck as if glued to the spot, the place was suddenly lit up with green light, at first Welt was surprised but when he finally understood what was happening he felt cheated.The double door was pushed open and Nora was led out with a dagger pointed at her neck.Lola screamed and ran forward on recognizing her." Nora.. how did you.. Zara?!" She stopped talking on recognizing Zara,"Lola?, what are you doing here?," Zara didn't expect to meet Lola h
Leo moved closer to the window and extended his shadow, his eyes became black like a bottomless pit, his shadow went down to the last floor, he searched the surroundings but he found no trace of her nor did he smell blood. He returned back to see his boss in a heated fight with a little figure .Cameron was about embracing the sleep goddess when he heard someone trying to break into one of the rooms, since they are in the alpha's quarter, no one is allowed in here and it was far into the night, he became very suspicious, all traces of sleep disappeared from his eyes as he hurriedly out of his room, fear go Int a grip of him when he couldn't find any trace of her in the room, mistaken Ryan for the culprit he attacked him. Ryan couldn't believe this was the little boy he brought up himself he tried to explain but any attempt he made earned him a fatal blow from him. He could only keep quiet and protect himself. ' Torak should be here already, what could possibly be delaying him? " Earli
" You will die of hunger even before your brothers get here princess," on hearing his voice, Nora, who was lying on the cold floor stood up with great difficulty, even though she's still in the same clothes, she looks very disheveled . " What exactly do you want from me?Why are you doing this to me?. " "Her voice sounds hoarse as a result of lack of water and saddest. " You had better eat something or drink water, if your brothers should arrive here now they will think I'm being too good to you. "Zara made no effort in hiding the sarcasm in his voice, he was feeling bored since his underlings are gone so he decided to come have a chitty chat with his enemies daughter. "You..!" Nora bite down on her bottom lip stopping herself from saying what she wants to say, this stranger has been threatening to defile her if she rile him , she finds herself in this room when she opened her eyes, she couldn't figure out how she got there, least she could remember she was in the office with Bill, a
TORAK" She was captured entering his office with him, but she didn't go out, neither did he." Larry filled me in, immediately I stepped out of my car."And where's the bastard, don't tell me we lost him," I warned but on seeing the look in his eyes, it drew on me that it was exactly what he wanted to say."How could you be so careless?What bunch of idiots did you come along with?""Any news on her?"I cursed inwardly on hearing that voice, why is he here in the first place. " How did you get here? X" I hissed, turning to face him, but the moment I did I had this strong urge to punch his face into a paste." I understand situations like this tend to make one mentally disabled at times, how do you mean how I got here, you just saw me step out of my car didn't you, tsk, tsk." He walked past me rudely pushing me aside. " Leo, get busy, I need information on her as fast as possible!" He ordered his shadow, I watched as the both of them walked into the hospital with my fist clenched tightl
TORAK"Leave the room!" I said after seeing the recognition on Lola's face, but the dumpsters in the room just stood there glaring at her."Are you all deaf?!, leave the fucking room I say!" I angrily slam the door in their faces." You had better sort this out or else… "" Don't make me drag you out," I threatened, staring him right in the eye. He swallowed the rest of the words before waltzing out of the room."She's just a pet, punish her according to the law." Welt left the room with this statement, making me even more agitated. I can't believe what is happening, how did I let this slide?, just how?!." Go to your room Cam."" Not until you promise to protect her." He retorted sharply, ' he's definitely not my son, how can I produce such a handful of trouble?. " Can't you see this isn't the time to be stubborn? ,get the hell out of here Cam. " Instead of going he stood there glaring at me, his little fist tightly clenched, even though I can't see it, I'm sure smoke is coming out
Dr Bill has this sly smile on, on sighting Nora walking up to him," you are here?" He asks Nora, who has momentarily lost her ability to speak, could only nod." A minute princess, let me arrange some things before we set out to leave." He ushered her to a seat, while she quietly sat and watched him move around in his office, a knock on the door made her return to the moment she was."Come in!" Bill urged whoever was at the door in , immediately a nurse walked in with a pack of coffee, she set a small table in front of Nora and poured her a cup. " Nora smiled politely at her as she walked out of the door." Thank you. "She thanked Bill as she took a sip, unknown to her Bill was keenly watching her every move, his lips pulled up into a smile on seeing her drink more of the coffee.With a satisfied smile Nora dropped the now empty cup," this tastes so good, what type of…." She passed out before she could complete her statement. Bill hurriedly walked up to her to confirm she is unconscio
Far away from the hospital, Zara quietly walked into the old orphanage concealing his presence with a transparent jacket that had a hoodie. The guards were dutifully walking around the premises, but they fell to see or smell the presence of an intruder . On getting to the small building, he picked up a small stone and threw at the direction where some guards were standing, the guards got distracted and two of them left their position to check out what was happening, leaving just one, seeing that his plan has worked, he spirited to the door, without knocking or unlocking it, his body passed through it."I should have known keeping those idiots around is of no use." The old man Ryan met a few days ago, said with a deep frown as he watched his visitor walk towards him. " What do you want this time, dragon," he asked sarcastically."You promised to send me feedback once you get to talk to him." Zara's voice was also not welcoming." I did? "" Stop playing dumb with me Elijah!." He angril
TORAKOn getting to the door, I just stood there glaring at it, not that breaking in will be a difficult task for me, trust me I've gone into more secured places than it.The thought that Lola would be more terrified than how she already is, if words about my actions get to her, was what kept me standing here like this, after giving it a hard thought I turned on my heels and head back to the corridor, on getting there Nora was long gone.She was right after all, at times I forget that apart from being my little sister she's also a daughter of the Donovan, at times it's best to allow her handle things herself, my only fear is that she's very soft hearted more like a human than a vamp and people with bad intention are quick to notice people like her and take advantage of them. I don't think I will sit still if something should happen to her. Cupping my face in my hand, I silently mouthed some words of encouragement to myself. I raised my head to catch some movement inside Lola's ward. I
