Chapter 111

They drove to the office together the next day, despite her protests. She alsoconceded to packing an overnight back, just in case. She shouldn’t have.She shouldn’t have left it open. She should be ending it. They’d had an agreement and they weren’t sticking to it.The relationship, because it was growing into that, was now beyond her control. She wanted to be with Jake almost more than she wanted her next breath, but she didn’t want to want it. She didn’t want to want him.She was sitting in her spot in his office, notebook in hand as he briefed her on a new resort property in Goa, India.“Any concerns regarding the location?” she asked.“Not that I can foresee. It’s an older resort, and basically we’ll be renovating it and bringing some more tourism into the area.”“Excellent. I love it when you make my job easy.” She looked up at him and her heart fluttered in her chest.There was no compartmentalizing. She had thought that Jake , her lover, could be someone different in her mind t

“You have beautiful hair. I’m captivated by it.”She sucked in a breath. “You are an easy man to captivate.”“No,” he said, his face serious, “I’m not.” He lowered his head and kissed her lightly, the gesture somehow more romantic than if he had ravished her mouth.“I’m almost ready,” she said, knowing she sounded as breathless as she felt. “Makeup.”He followed her into the bathroom and grabbed his razor from the medicine cabinet while she rummaged through the bag she’d brought with her and found a shade of red lipstick that would work well with the dress.He shaved away his five-o’clock shadow while she put the finishing touches on her look, and the whole time her hands were shaking. It was the sort of thing a married couple would do. At least, the sort of thing she imagined a normal married couple might do.“I’m ready,” she said. Anything to get away from the house, from this domestic scene that was making her whole body ache with longing she didn’t want to feel.All eyes were on th

Chapter 113

Being with Jake , making love with Jake , was always amazing. But it had never been like this. His hands moved over her curves, his touch reverent, his lips soft but urgent on her skin. And when he claimed her, surged into her body, she truly felt as though she didn’t know where she began and he ended.She dug her nails into his shoulders, locked him more tightly against her by wrapping her legs around his hips and she arched into him and gave in to the pleasure that was coursing through her body. But it was more than that. More than just a physical reaction brought on by sexual arousal and release.His body went taut above hers, the tendons in his neck standing out, ahoarse grunt signaling his orgasm. She held him to her, felt his heart beatinghard against her chest. It was so much more than sex. So much more than afling.And she didn’t think she could face it.Before she and Jake had started sleeping together, they’d been colleagues, they’d almost been friends and then they’d move

Chapter 114

She slid out of his arms and went into the living room, clutching her arms, trying to keep herself from shivering.It didn’t matter how she felt about Jake .She laughed out loud into the empty room. It did matter. Now that she knew what her feelings meant, she knew she had to finish with him. She shook her head. She’d done what she’d promised herself, and him, shewouldn’t. She’d fallen in love with her first lover.She sank onto the couch and drew her knees up to her chest, her heart pounding so hard she thought it might break. The pain so severe she was certain it already was.She couldn’t do it. She couldn’t stay. Not feeling like she did.A tear slid down her cheek.She was so afraid that if she stayed, she would give him everything.Everything she’d learned to hold inside, all of the emotions she’d learned to carefully suppress. And they wouldn’t be enough for him, either. She wasn’t enough. She never had been. Her love hadn’t been enough for her own mother, why would it mean any

He wasn’t enough for Kalia, either.She looked up at him and for a moment, he was certain he saw pain in her eyes, until she masked it again with the blank expression she’d been wearing when he walked into the room.“Then why prolong it?” she asked, standing. “I’ll get a cab.”“Why? You have to be at work soon. I can drive you,” he ground out.She looked away from him. “I don’t know…”“It’s just a fling, Kalia,” he bit out. “And we always knew that it would end. And we agreed you would continue to work for me.”She sucked in a sharp breath. “Of course. My job is important to me.Another reason why I don’t think it’s smart to prolong this. I don’t want it affecting our work.”Something about the way she said that made his stomach burn. Her job was important. What had passed between them wasn’t.He couldn’t even believe that only moments before he’d been imagininghaving a baby with her. Had even thought they could make it work. But she was no different than his parents, and when it came

Chapter 116

It had made her successful in some ways, but she had allowed it to stunt her in so many other ways. She was still letting it stop her.She closed her eyes and breathed in deeply. She wanted Jake . She didn’tknow if he wanted her, not in the same way she wanted him. She didn’t know if he could ever love her.Her own mother hadn’t loved her half as much as she’d loved the various men that had paraded through her life.It galled her to find out that the thing that had kept her from a relationship, from love, was the fear that she wasn’t good enough. She hid it by focusing on things she excelled at, and she simply ignored everything else, so that she didn’t have to face it.She wasn’t going to do it anymore. She felt as if she was back on the edge of the cliff again, the ocean at the bottom, a swirling sea of uncertainty beneath her. She could turn and run, as she had done before, or she could face it head-on. She’d managed to do that with business, to face downopponents in the media, wi

He blew out a harsh breath and stood from his desk just as the door to his office opened. Kalia stepped in, hair in a knot, prim and proper outfit skimming her curves like always. Making him want to see the beauty that lay beneath.She turned on shut the door, the lock clicking softly.“Jake ,” she said softly, her voice shaking.He thought of the first time she’d walked into his office for a job interview. Her manner had been confident, her voice steady. She looked far removed from that woman now. There was vulnerability, real emotion.“I didn’t expect you this early,” he said.“I couldn’t sleep.”“I couldn’t sleep, either.” Their eyes caught and held, and he knew they had both been sleepless for the same reason.“I thought … Jake , I have to tell you,” she said. “I thought that not needing anyone made me strong. I didn’t want to be like my mother and need things from other people all the time. So I avoided relationships. And then I met you, and I wanted you, I wanted you enough that

Olive. “I’m guessing they got rid of you, Olive, because you are strong and they didn’t like that. The way you grabbed my hand, anyone else in the pack you would have shattered their wrist. I felt the power that’s inside you.” He stood behind me, so close, too close. His hands went to my hips, and i closed her eyes.“I feel your fear. I bet you avoid touch a lot, don’t you?”"I never used my power back in the pack and they didn't get rid of me. No one knows how strong i am. I ran away because they raped me and i couldn't stay anymore. I would hurt them, really bad. All of them." i finally managed to say as it all came back to me. How much my father hated me and mistreated me. “ I am so sorry that happened to you Olive. I really am. No one deserves to go through such treatment and abuse."“I don’t want to die,” i managed to say. “I don’t want to go feral, and I don’t want to hurt anyone.”“Then I will teach you how to handle your strength. I will help you get in control of your wolf,

Chapter 119

As soon as i stepped into the house, the aroma hit me, adele was playing in the background. Olivia loved cooking on her days off, she was actually saving up to open her own restaurant some day.I put the keys on the console table and my bag and headed straight to the kitchen. She was dancing slowly to the music. She was in her bathrobe and had another towel on her head. She didn't even hear me come in. How could she when she was in her zone. I leaned on the kitchen table watching her, but a few seconds later she turned around."Hey, you scared me. When did you get in here?" she asks taking a seat at the dining table. Before i could even answer her, she starts speaking again, "where have you been? You disappeared on me yesterday and i had been trying to reach you, but your phone is off.""Well that's kind of a long story, can i have some of that deliciousness?" i ask as i head to the sink to wash my hands."Well baby girl i got time, it's my day off remember." she says as she gets up an

Alec.“Is it all cooked?” i asked.“Yes.”“What about the chicken? I know we are wolves, but even we can get stomachache from food.”Her hand was white as she clenched her knife, and i saw that it had also bent just a little.“Do you have a problem with my food?” she asked.“I’m just making sure you’re not serving substandard stuff to my pack.” I said.“I would never do that.”“I don’t know that, do I?” i asked. “I don’t even know you, and you are a newbie here.”I saw the pain flash in her eyes, and i hated myself for my words, but it had to be done. This had to be done.Taking a bite, i wrinkled my nose even as my mouth watered. “Too much rosemary.”She didn’t say or do anything, just took a bite.I was aware of the pack watching my every move. Pushing some of my food around my plate, i took a bite of the carrot. “That’s too sweet.”It was fucking heavenly.This woman could cook, and i felt spoiled for choice on what to eat.Again, she just took a deep breath and kept on eating.
