Hi everyone. Please drop a comment.
Victoria’s POVI blinked my eyes repeatedly as the sunlight from the window flashed in my eyes. With a frown, I slowly opened my eyes and squinted against the bright light. Groaning annoying, I closed my eyes and rubbed them with my hands before sitting up in bed.I opened my eyes again and glanced around the room, realizing that this was not the room I shared with Derick. It was Bernard's room. All that had happened the night before played back in my head, causing a frown to appear on my face. I hated how vulnerable I had made myself look before him, but I couldn't deny the fact that it was relieving to pour out all my sorrow and pain.Just as I was about to leave the bed, the door opened and Bernard walked in with a tray of breakfast in his hands. He smiled and placed the tray of food on the bed in front of me before sitting down. “Good morning. How was your night?” He asked, but I just rolled my eyes and reached for my phone. I picked it up and realized it was already 10 am, and I
Victoria's POVWhen I walked into the sitting room, I met Jane waiting for me. She held my gaze and shot me a suspicious glance. Without saying a word, I knew she knew where I was coming from.“Jane, you're here,” I greeted while taking a seat. Just then, Aidan’s nanny walked up to me. “Where is he?” I asked, worriedly.“He is in school, and I did as you instructed. Four-armed security guards are with him,” she said. I nodded and flashed her a grateful smile as she bowed and left.Jane and I remained silent. Jane didn't want to say a word, but I knew she had a lot of things to say. “Just spill it out,” I murmured and saw her shrug her shoulders. “What do you want me to say?” she asked. I rolled my eyes and got up on my feet.I took the stairs to my room, and when I arrived, I saw Jane already seated on one of the couches.“Damn your abilities!” I grumbled and sat on the bed. As I took off my shoes, I could feel Jane's suspicious glance on me, but I ignored it and began taking off my c
Victoria's POVWhile I was trying to sort out some documents, there was a knock on the door, and I gestured for the person to come in. The door opened, revealing Clinton. “Alpha Linus is here to see you. Do you want to see him? I can tell him you don't want to see anyone,” he suggested. I remained silent for a moment and then nodded. “Let him in,” I said, and Clinton nodded before leaving.Taking a deep breath, I composed myself and sat properly while waiting for him. A moment later, he walked in and stood before me. “Alpha Linus, to what do I owe this visit?” I asked, gesturing for him to take the visitor's seat in front of me.He took the seat but didn't say a word. Instead, he kept staring at me, and I found it really uncomfortable. “Do you have something to say?” I asked, and he smiled before leaning on the table, his gaze locked with mine.“I know that you are having an affair with Lord Bernard,” he said, causing me to furrow my brow. “Come on, don't look surprised. We all know t
Bernard's POV“Come on, have a seat,” I gestured when I realized she wasn't making a move to take the seat. I watched her stare at the dishes displayed on the table and then back at me.“What is the meaning of this?” she asked, and I smiled. “Dinner. I want to have dinner with you,” I said and saw her frown.“I did not come for this, Bernard,” she grumbled. “And what did you come for?” I asked, and she was left speechless.“This is just a harmless dinner, okay?” I urged, and after hesitating for a moment, she moved closer and took the seat.With a relieved smile, I took the seat across from her and noticed her staring at the dishes on the table. “You made this yourself?” she asked, and I nodded. “Liar,” she spoke in disbelief, and I scoffed before saying, “There are so many things you don't know about me, Vicky, a lot of things.” I smirked and saw her frown before she placed an empty plate in front of her.I watched her scan the different dishes on the table before she picked up a spo
Bernard's POV“We are here, my lord,” my driver spoke as he stopped before a gate. “Stay here, I'll be back,” I told him and left the car. I reached the gate and rang the bell while looking through the security cameras, so they could see me properly. Within a minute, the gate opened and I walked in.“Greetings, Lord Bernard,” the men at the gate greeted. “Where is Alpha Linus…" I didn't finish my words when I saw him approaching me with a surprised but frightened look.“Lord Bernard, you are here,” he spoke, surprised, but I rushed up to him and grabbed him by the neck with my left hand.I could hear the loud and disapproving growl from his men, but none attempted to come near me because they knew I wouldn't waste a moment to turn them into ice.“You!” I yelled through gritted teeth, staring at Alpha Linus, who looked frightened. “How dare you go to her and make such demands,” I spat and tightened my grip on his neck, watching him struggle for air.“Do you know I could just kill you r
Victoria’s POVMore tears streamed down my cheeks and fell on the picture frame I was holding in my hand. The picture was of Derick and me, smiling widely at the camera as we both held Aidan in our arms. It was Aidan's naming and crowning ceremony, and it was one of the happiest days of my life.My heart ached, and more tears fell from my eyes as memories played in my head, both good and bad ones. I recalled how I first met Derick when I was just seventeen. I remember going to serve him a drink and how he threw it at my face. I remember when he came back to the pack with Emma and accused me of using charms on him. I recalled his accusations, but then I remembered how we fell in love with each other.Memories of our first time having sex together played in my head, and they all felt like it was just yesterday. Everything seemed as if it was just yesterday.“What are you doing?” Jane spoke, announcing her presence in the room.With deep sniffs, I wiped my face with my hand and dropped t
Bernard's POVI forced a spoonful of food into my mouth while Cora kept hitting her plate with the cutlery, but I chose to ignore it. After our conversation yesterday, I decided to sleep in the guest room and pondered my thoughts. All these years, no matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't love Cora or learn to live with her. Due to my inability to love her, I did something drastic which I knew she suspected, but she didn't have concrete evidence yet.When I realized that I couldn't grow to love her as a mate and wife, no matter how hard I tried, I decided to visit my witch. I asked her to make a concoction that would prevent me from impregnating Cora. I could impregnate other women, but not Cora. She would never bear my child because I knew that if she did, we would be bonded for life, and that's something I wouldn't want.“How wicked of you,” my wolf yelled angrily, but I chose to ignore him and shove another spoonful of food into my mouth. I noticed Cora's angry glare, but I ignor
Victoria's POV“Derick! Please let go of me." I pleaded, but he groaned and tightened his grip on my neck, revealing his fangs. "How could you, how could you do this to me?" He growled, while I shook my head and tried to speak, but I couldn't."You betrayed me Vicky, you betrayed my love for you!" He yelled, and I kept shaking my head as I struggled to form words."My lady, my lady, are you okay?" A maid's voice sounded in my head, forcing my eyes open and making me realize I was dreaming.With panting breath, I sat up in bed and massaged my neck, surprised to still feel the pain on my neck. It felt so real, as if I was actually grabbed by Alpha Derick."Are you okay?" My personal maid, Sonia, asked, and I couldn't respond. Instead, I moved my gaze around the room as the dream replayed in my head."I came to serve your tea, but when I came in, I realized you were gripping your neck and moving uncomfortably on the bed. Are you okay?" She asked with concern etched on her face, and yet I
