I did not have time to think much because as I was dropping the phone Ezra was returning from wherever he went to.I stood up when he got close, “Mary from downstairs called. She said the event planner for the ceremony is here to see you,”“Tell Mary to send her up,” he said before walking into his office and closing his door behind him.“Okay,” I murmured to his closed door before dropping back into my seat and calling Mary. I was not even done talking when she slammed the phone down, ending the call.I did not even know how to feel about her actions. I just pushed it behind me and went back to responding to emails. After a few minutes the elevator opened and a woman in her late twenties stepped out and walked towards me with a calm expression. She was putting on a bright yellow dress that hugged her body and stopped right above her knees and a black stilettos. Her dark hair was slicked back in a high ponytail and her lip was a bright shade of red.“You can go in. He is waiting for y

ANNABELLE “Our engagement is supposed to be next week, correct?”It took a few seconds for Ezra to lift his head from his phone to stare at me. I held his gaze, not looking away. “You’re finally talking to me?”Of course he was surprised that I was talking to him. After screaming in his office about him screwing Margaret, I’d spent the rest of the day moving around with a blank expression and doing my work properly. I was not going to ruin my chance at a job by letting my emotions get in the way. That’s what Ezra would want me to do. He would want me to lash out so that he would seize it as an opportunity to send me away. Not going to let that happen. It would take a whole lot for him to get rid of me. We could get married the easy way or the hard way, the ball was in his court. I ignored the jab and repeated my question.“Yes, why?”“Why? We’ve not discussed it since I came back. You’ve never mentioned it either and you know I lost my memory,”“Is that not what you have your paren

EZRA You fucking bastard! You hurt her! You hurt our mate! I shut my eyes, hoping to shut my wolf the same way but it was impossible given that he was a part of me, he was in my head and I’d tried to push him to the back of my mind but he was not having it. I was fighting a losing battle. My head was throbbing with a powerful headache which was as a result of my wolf incessantly cursing at me for what I said to Annabelle today. She’s available, really? I winced. I should have never said that but it was the bloody truth. I settled for taking her after her sister went missing because I thought it would be easier than going to another pack to discuss another alliance but this was proving to be much more complicated than hoped. It was easy when she was just a random woman I was marrying for my kids but for her to be my mate? It was not part of the plan and now, she was causing a rift between my wolf and I, that’s how dangerous she was. Seeing her everyday, wanting to touch

EZRAI slowly placed the coffee back on my desk and to hide my embarrassment, I picked up the report my beta had dropped off in the afternoon and focused on it but I was not seeing anything.The air was awkward and filled with tension as neither of us said anything. I thought she would leave but with how she remained seated, it seems like she had no intention of doing so.Was she going to talk about what happened today? Try to make peace as usual or… what?“You worked all day and even by this time you’re still working? Aren’t you exhausted? You’re not tired of all this paperwork?” She wrinkled her nose in an adorable manner.“Working is all I know,” I stiffened after the words left my mouth? What was wrong with me? Why did I say that? Now Annabelle was going to hound and try to know more about me because of what I just said.She snorted instead, causing me to move my attention from the paper I was holding so that I could look at her. Surprisingly, she had a look of contempt on her fac

EZRAFor the next week and a half, Annabelle and I settled into a comfortable routine. Our mornings began with breakfast alongside the twins, followed by riding my car to work together, where we'd slip into our professional roles as boss and employee. After a day of work, we'd ride home together, share dinner with the twins before retiring to my office. There, I'd work late into the night — or pretend to— while waiting for Annabelle to come with freshly brewed coffee. And we would talk, our conversations flowing effortlessly until the early hours of the morning.At first, I was reluctant to admit it, but as time passed, I began to look forward to those late night hours in my office. I liked talking to Annabelle, too much, and getting her inputs on some business matters even if she gave it after a lot of gentle prodding from me. I liked the way her eyes sparkled when she talked about the latest novels she was reading. Just because she was so interested in my life and getting to know me

EZRAJust as I was about to either ignore her or play dumb, Annabelle rose from her seat and letting the blanket that was wrapped around her shoulders drop to reveal her pink pajamas, she circled my desk and came to me. I gently pushed my swivel chair from my desk to create room for her to stand in front of me.She was saying as she sat on my desk directly in front of me. Her green eyes were sparkling brightly, “Everyday you keep staring at my lips when I speak,” I hadn’t thought she noticed. After all, I thought I was being subtle. Still, I arched one bushy brow, not willing to give in to temptation. I liked the way our relationship was at the moment. Adding kissing would lead to sex and sex would lead to complications.“Who said me looking at your lips means I want to kiss you?”She raised her brow too, copying my action, “Who said looking at my lips means you do not want to kiss me?” After her question, she swept her tongue over her bottom lip, the action slow and deliberate, ca

ANNABELLE “What do you think of this design, Ma chérie?” The woman in front of her asked, her voice thick with a heavy French accent as her workers held out a bright red gown for me to see. My breath caught as I walked closer to the gown and grabbed hold of one end. The gown was a ravishing red. It was silky with a strapless design that showcased a fitted boned bodice that crunched at the waist. It also had a subtle sheen that caught the light as it was held out. The material was soft and silky, I could almost envision how it would feel against my skin as I walked through the halls of the ceremony. “I like it.” I said as my lips stretched into a wide smile, “No, allow me to rephrase that. I love it. It’s so beautiful,” “Good. Good. I made it specially for you. I was ecstatic when Alpha Ezra reached out to me that he needed me to sew a gown for his fiancé,” Colette waved her workers off and they moved away with the gown. “When did he contact you? How did you sew the gown quickly?

“When is the perfect date to announce my engagement?” I yelled as I walked into my father's house to meet my parents who were sitting in the living room. They both had their backs to me, their arms wrapped around each other as they watched the movie playing on the big screen television.Both of them jumped at the sound of my voice before turning their body to look at me. Surprised showed on their faces but it quickly morphed into delight as they both got up and held their arms open.I rushed forward, circled around the sofa and threw my arms around them, hugging the both of them together.“We did not expect you to come home tonight,” my mom said when we finally separated after a few minutes of holding each other.“I wanted to surprise you both,” And it was true. I did not tell them that I would be coming home and attending the mating ceremony tomorrow with them.“Eh? We are really surprised,” I saw worry in my father’s eyes that he was trying to cover. I knew there were a lot of quest

ANNABELLE I hate this ceremony and everybody in attendance. I folded my hands across my chest but when my mother shot me a scathing glare, I quickly dropped it with a huff. Since we arrived a few hours earlier, I’ve not been able to sit still — mother has had to tap me a couple of times — and I never knew that forcing a smile could be so hard until I had to do so today as I walk around, greeting and getting introduced by father to other alphas and their children.“Annabelle has grown into a very beautiful woman,” One alpha Isaiah told my father with a patronizing smile, “My son is yet to meet his mate. I’ll be handing over the pack to him on his birthday in two months. I’m sure he and Annabelle would make a nice couple. What do you say, Alpha Knight?”“That’s left for Annabelle.” My father responded, returning alpha Isaiah’s smile, “This one is stubborn. I cannot force her to anything she does not want,”“Ahh that means she’s just like you when you were younger. You were so stubborn

ANNABELLE One, two, three… dances in a row, I remained on the dance floor, lost to the sound of music and reluctant to leave. After my dance with Joshua, another alpha son approached me for a second dance and then another young alpha came to me for the third one and by then, I was enjoying myself and had forgotten all my sorrows and the fact that Ezra was ignoring me.“May I have this dance, ma’am,” another man, whom I don’t even know appeared once I was done with the young alpha. He bowed like a gentleman and held out an open palm to me.With a small laugh, I said, “Yes,” and allowed him to wrap an arm around my waist.“You’re so beautiful. This red dress really suits you and compliments your skin tone,” he said once we began to move to the flow of the song.My eyes stung with tears at the compliment. Even if it was not him I wanted to hear it from, it would do. But why couldn’t it have been Ezra who complimented me? After all, he got me the dress.I felt him before I saw him. The h
