Chapter 4
Ansel's POV
When someone hit me that night In the park, I never imagined that it would be her. I never imagined that she would be the one, neither did I think she would be hurt and running away from an abusive ex. Nothing about her situation at that point was expected, when I had a meeting with Bruce that night for the update of the treaty, and I picked the park I couldn’t place why until she crashed in to me.
During my eighteenth birthday, I realized that my mate wasn’t who I thought it was, it wasn’t my girlfriend, Sofia, who later betrayed me. The moon goddess told me it was going to be somebody I never expected, someone ill never imagined.
She was right, Violet wasn’t what I expected. After dealing with the filthy boyfriend of hers and his friends, I wanted nothing more than to take her with me and protect her at all cost. It disgusted me that me that had manhandled her and I was going to make sure to break everyone in his body for treating her like that.
When she refused to let me touch her and clean up her wound it infuriated me the more, she thought I was kidnapping her when I just wanted to keep her safe. Her desperate pleas to go back home was stupid, that place was the least safest for her. She belonged here, she belonged with me. Safe.
One thing j can’t tell her is that I’m not human, I can imagine the sour expression on her face if she knows about me being a werewolf and her being my mate. She would loose her mind, will th all that happened today, it’s safe not to mention anything to her just yet.
After locking her in one of the rooms upstairs I made a call for Henry, my beta and my best friend.
“I found her.” Was the first thing I said after picking up.
“You found who?” Henry asked clearly confused as to what I was referring to.
“My mate. I found her.” I repeated pacing around the room.
“No way-” Henry mouthed. “How- where?”
“It’s a long story Henry, but she’s here with me.”
“Wait- she is? How did you get her to stay with you? Why is so many piece of information missing?” when I don’t reply, Henry doesn’t hold back a groan. “Don’t tell me you forced her to your house?”
“I did, she was in a sticky situation and I saved her. Her ex was hitting her.”
Oh-”
While I spoke to him my eyes picked up at the sound of someone walking, seeing that it was just me and violet, it had to be her. But how did you she get out?
She must be heard me on the phone with Henry as she was lost in her thought and didn’t notice that I was in front of her.
“How did you get out?” she was shocked that I had caught her red handed, wanting to know what she heard I asked her about it but she plainly denied that she heard anything. If it wasn’t for the way she played with her nails I would’ve believed her.
In the end while I carried her back upstairs she kicked and pleaded that I take her home and in as much as I wanted to I wouldn’t let her just leave, she is important to me and I’m not going to let her go.
“Pleas- just- I just want to go-“ She pleaded but I had already made up my mind. She was safe here. She had picked the lock to the door but I warned her that she couldn’t leave.
After closing the door behind me I listened, waiting for her to scramble for the door to struggle but didn’t, instead she cried. I don’t know how much I stood there until I went back to her room, there she was curled up on the floor fast asleep.
“The bed is right in front of you V.” I whispered to myself running my hands through my hair. She felt small against mg bulky drain, small and she fit perfectly. She smelled like fresh pineapple, even with the little dirt on her clothes she looked cute. I stayed outside her room after putting her to bed, sleep wasn’t my friend so it was normal.
The next morning I made breakfast and went to check in on her, she was still deep in sleep when I got there. Her innocent face radiated with so much innocence and naivety. Her deep brown hair was spread in messy waves on the bed, even under the soft sun I could tell how pale her skin was.
When her eyes opened up, the sharpest shade of honey eyes met mine. She was shocked that I was there and crumbled to the ground.
“Good, you’re awake, come down for breakfast.” She was visibly shocked that I invited her for breakfast.
Shortly after Violet is down all washed up and presentable, I asked her to join me to eat and after trying to be stubborn she obeyed.
I watched her as she ate reluctantly and I started quizzing her about how much she heard the night before, she did not answer me instead she quizzed me back and I was irritated by her counter action, we were in the middle of it all when Henry called. It was hard convincing her to stay but this would be the last push she need to see that this isn’t a bluff.
"What is it?” I asked with my knuckles tucked under my chin.
“Apparently you were right, her mother was attacked during the early hours of the morning.” Henry said. At the mention of her mother Violet stiffened, she was afraid. She didn’t want anything to happen to her parents, she was selfless even after everything they’ve caused for her.
“Deal or no deal?” She knew she was running on thin ice, she couldn’t help her family but I could.
“What do I have to do?”
Chapter 5 Violet's POV “Yes. I’ll do it.” I agreed. "Well you have to sign a contract.” Those where the words out of his mouth. Contract. "Can you rephrase your last statement please?" I asked frowning at his choice of words. “What the hell do we need a contract for", I asked more confused than before. "Well I believe you are not a dunce and you know what a contract is", he said more calmly Thani expected. “I don’t understand, must we sign a contract to make this valid? Is the words from my mouth not enough validation?", I said after a few seconds of silence. "Will you sign or not?", he replied harshly ignoring my questions. "Fine, bring it and let me sign the damn papers", I muttered in clear frustration. When he stood up from his chair with a folder in his hand I tried not to gape at his broad frame, he was intimidating and his aura alluring. He pushed the plates in front of me away creating space for the folder. “Do you have already typed contracts you give to girls you ab
Chapter 6Ansel's POVI got to the office that morning so bothered about Violet, she is such a hard but to crack, I wished she was a werewolf, maybe I won't be in so much fix right now."What a girl!!!”. I exclaimed loudly not mindful of the people around me as I head to my office.I am the CEO of a transportation company that cut across all transportation sectors be it road, air, water and other forms of transportation, I have several branches spread across Europe too, I have built it better than how my parents left it to become one of the leading transportation company in the country.I was so engrossed in my thoughts about Violet that I ignored all greetings addressed to me that morning as I headed hurriedly to the elevator that would take me to my office, I pressed the bell and met my best friend and Beta."Good morning Ansel, how was your night?", Brian greeted."Wad up bro", I responded trying to cheer up."A penny for your thoughts, cos you seem bothered", he said out of concer
Chapter 7Violet's POVI have been alone with my thoughts since he left me, the oblivion of how things would be from now on has got me brooding with several questions on my mind."When will this contract end?", I said aloud."Can't wait to get done with these, it's driving me crazy", I said aloud again.I needed a break from what life has been bringing my way since all these days ranging from my relationship to my stressful low paying job and a nasty job, so I never bargained for these new events and it's really driving me crazy.I laid on the bed for hours and thought to call my mom's number but decided against it as Ansel warned me against doing that majorly for my safety and that of my family and even if I wanted to there is no phone.I looked up and discovered it was around past 1 in the afternoon and I had not freshen up, so I moved into the bathroom to shower and got dressed in no time.My stomach needed food as I couldn't eat well in the morning due to the way Ansel stared at m
Chapter 8Violet's POVIt's been four days since I last saw Ansel and to say, I have been quite relieved because there has been lesser drama, no yelling, no peeping, let me say I've been free as a bird.He had packed for few days because of an emergency that needed his attention and left specific instructions for me when he was leaving and that includes not breaking the rules in the contract and I wasn't ready for another world war 3, so I promised to comply and I did to the letter.Feeding was no problem as food delivery services brought me nice meals every morning, noon and night, a complete balance diet.I was inside the room around 12 noon when I heard the door of the house open, I raced down the hall curiously with the intention of hiding my face at a corner when he comes in and sneak back into my room as soon as I see him climbing up."Hi Violet, how are you doing?", an unfamiliar voice said as soon as I got to the wall closer to the staircase, I have to hide my face, my heart s
Chapter 9I was thinking so hard about how things is going to be from now on, everywhere was damn silent except for the table producing the sound my fingers are giving it as I tap on the table severally with them.I had gotten into the room after spending few minutes with Brian downstairs, the park had been attacked again and it was quite brutal this time around as we took two casualties to our side.The park had been so disturbed as a result of this recent incident and I had to leave the house for a few days to quell the issue the best way I can before it gets out of hand.Several investigations had revealed some people and I had swung into action immediately, I and Brian and we discovered some shocking incidentsThe attack had made everyone so shaken that we couldn't reveal it to them but we hope to tell them soon but nevertheless continue with the investigation discreetly just Brian and I.I had checked up on Violet's family too and I heard they are doing well so I worry less.I wa
Chapter 10 Violet's POV "Jerk", I said in a very low tone as I watched him leave me alone.Well he tried by keeping to his words as regards my family members, his words made me a little cheerful as I whistled a song in a playful manner into my room to wait the arrival of the so called mystery arrangement he has made for the party."Finally", I said as I saw a woman drive in and come out of her car with a red gown and a big box.I wondered who she may be"Friendly or evil?""Will she be able to help me when I call for help or she will totally ignore me?"I asked these questions with others too but couldn't find an answer to them.All I could do is sit on the bed and allow things to kinda play itself out.I heard a knock on the door shortly and I went to answer it and behold I saw a very beautiful blonde lady with a pointed nose about 5'9 fts tall looking at me."Hey baby girl will you allow me in?", she said breaking my thoughts."Oh sorry", I said as I made way for her to enter."My
Chapter 11Ansel's POV"Well I believe they should be done by now", I said looking at my watch and moved out of the room towards her room, when I heard gigglings."Ladies", I thought to myself, I waited for a while replying some important text messages on my phone before entering the room without knocking of course, they stopped talking, the expression on Gloria seems like that of relief, what it was I couldn't tell.I looked at Gloria and then to Violet, I wished someone had warned me earlier, maybe I would have been better prepared and not too surprised by how beautiful she looked, my heart was really raced at that moment."You look ravishing", I said but those words never came out, instead it rang in my head.Gloria really did a good job, well being a fashionista less ain't expected.I couldn't help but notice how she looked at me also and I had this strange confidence."Maybe I am not looking too bad myself and kinda attractive to her", I thought to myself.I moved closer to them
Chapter 12Violet's POV"Ansel", I called but he wasn't within the hearshot anymore, so I had to just keep calm so as not to pose as a nuisance."Why did this guy leave me in the midst of all these unknown faces", I asked myself feeling anxious again.I had noticed people staring at me and it's making me feel quite uncomfortable, I wondered why it was like that."Maybe my dressing", I said to myself releasing a brief chuckle."But these stares are quite weird and they even look at me when conversing", I still thought to myself again confused at what's going on.I thought of either blending with them or hiding away and I kinda chose the latter.I looked back again and I stumbled on someone, I almost fell but had to hold myself."Will you get a grip of yourself girl", came in a harsh tone directed at me."Oh sorry, I never intended to", I replied apologizing to the female figure who stood in front of me giving me this disdainful look that's got me surprised as I am just seeing her for t
