Alpha Ryder's POV________________________"Is this feminine enough?" Emily asked putting the flower pot beside the window. I grunted and nodded negatively. "Take the flower pot away""You needed something pretty.""Not that kind of pretty""Who's she by the way and why so much preparation? Do I know her?" Emily sat on the bed "She's just a guest. I need some information from her and I plan to try to treat her nicely before getting what I want" I walked towards the bed and touched it. "Too soft. Ask Peter to change it""She's a lady, she's going to like it""But I don't use soft bed with you""Because we fuck Ryder. Will you be sleeping with her too?" Emily's eyes widened a bit."Maybe," I muttered."What?" She chuckled and moved closer to me. "You're hiding something, Ryder. Who's she? Did Aunty arrange a girl for you? I'm sure she's blabbing about how I'm not your mate and my job would affect your reputation""Believe me when I say, this girl is a spy, an intruder and I need a pie
Charia's Pov__________________I loved the excitement that comes with seeing Ice home with me."What's your favorite place in the world?" Ice asked when he got back from work. I was so happy he was back home, I had been alone pacing restlessly wondering if I should be at Alpha Ryder's house or not. The pressure and tension in me had gotten worse thinking of how my life was going to turn into a mess once Alpha Ryder got hold of me. Ice came back really late in the evening, I had locked myself in and when he knocked, I was so scared it was Alpha Ryder's guard or something. Zara had promised to be with Jacob at his daycare for the rest of the day after she came back from work and then she also said she wouldn't be coming home tonight also. I had been looking out the window scared that I would be taken away before anyone got back. I was so glad I was still here, and probably Alpha Ryder had changed his mind about me.He might have confirmed that I wasn't ready to give in or tell him th
___________________Alpha Ryder's POV______It was almost twenty-four hours, she wasn't here yet, I hadn't smelled her not seen any traces. No one has welcomed her in and no sign of any stranger at my mansion. My place was never hard to find, I wasn't a random wolf, I was a landmark of my own.Did she have trouble getting here? Is her pack against her confessing the truth to me? Do they want to wage a war instead? Do they have other plans? Is she going to hypnotize me again, just like that night?I was extremely confused and furious. Her time was up, her grace was over, and I had been too lenient, whatever her pack was planning, I needed to know at all costs. This just proved to me that she seemed tougher than she looked. I wasn't going to look at her in any innocent form. She wanted it the hard way and had provoked the beast in me.I wasn't going to take the plan of my murder lightly, because a freaking hot young wolf was used as my bait. I would have been less involved - I should h
Alpha Ryder's POV__________________As Peter approached me in the hallway, he had a smile on his face, he was compelling himself not to laugh but he still walked towards me anyways. "What's funny?" I asked him with the frown still stored on my face from earlier."Nothing, Alpha Ryder," he said, and a chuckle came out of his lips. "That was a mistake" he quickly said coming back to a more serious face. "I drove here as soon as you called me. And why are you at a hospital?" He looked around cautiously."Oh," I muttered looking around too like I just got here. Okay, yeah, I did listen to Charia's request. Her last word was to save the boy and she was going to come with me, she was trembling in so much fear and I couldn't reject such an offer, she melted my heart and I felt I was being too awful to her, I didn't want to make a scene in the harsh way I did earlier but the guy had stopped me from taking her and it vexed my wolf.I didn't mean to hurt him for real."I need you to watch som
Alpha Ryder's Pov__________________I rushed into my house shouting Emily's name. She naturally misbehaved anytime she got drunk, so I could imagine what she was going through at the moment. "Emily?" I shouted again walking to my room because there was no other place she would rather be."Hey, darling" I rushed over to Emily who sat on the floor with a bottle of alcohol. The instant she heard my voice, she pulled me into a big hug."I don't want to lose you, Ryder" she cried rubbing my back hard. "I don't want to leave you""You're not going anywhere, Emily, okay?" I carried her up and placed her on the bed gently. "Are you okay? What is wrong with you?""You're so pretty" she smiled touching my face. "Give me a kiss" She pouted her mouth and brought it closer to my face. "You're so sexy" She rubbed her hands against my chest.I chuckled. "Emily, why did you get so drunk?"Her face changed into a sad one in a second. "We can't leave each other right?" She asked me. "We've been friend
Charia's Pov___________________________With so much disappointment in myself, I stayed in the car that Peter drove. He had just pulled into a very large mansion which was obviously the iconic Wolfcup house. I stayed in the back seat because Peter insisted I sit there. After some minutes of parking amongst the other luxurious car, the car engine stopped.My heart thud countlessly, it was daylight. I didn't get to speak with Ice, he asked that I stay away from him. Ice being angry with me made me sad. It wasn't hard to admit that I really cared about him or his opinions of me. I liked Ice and it hurt to see he had lost so much trust in me. All I wanted to was apologize all over again, thank him for defending me and having my back always, ask him for a deep cuddle, and asked that he throw me on his back so I could lay. The disappointment on his face before he fainted yesternight still clouded my eyes and the anger he shed at the hospital caused me to feel much guilt.Maybe it was all
Zara's PovJacob, Ice, and I headed home in the morning after Ice was discharged and Charia was escorted to her doom. I wasn't the only one upset hearing what was going on. It took me by surprise also to learn that Charia had a previous offense that has to do with Alpha Ryder. I wished I could help but we were just good Samaritans and we could not take part in her punishment, if she had told us earlier, we could have found a way to get her out of it even if it meant avoiding Alpha Ryder for life.I was scared of what would become of Charia now that she was taken. She seemed so innocent of whatever charge she was accused of. When Charia came into our lives, I thought she was going to stay, I thought I would have a female friend to finally talk things about with after my best friend left me. But I was wrong, everyone is just temporary and the only person who really stayed all these years was Ice.Talking about Ice. I'm so dead. I hated to see Ice angry, because he hardly got upset, not
Zara's Pov ________ Ice knew me better than I thought he did. His guess was right, of course I went to see someone else, I could not hide it for long neither did I want to lie to him. "Yes. I'm seeing someone else" I responded. His eyes darkened, and his brows arched. He was surprised at my response. "Who is he? Do you like him? Since when?" "Not long ago. And yes, I have an interest in..." "Don't do this Zara." "What?" "Don't make me crazy." "Ice. I don't understand." "What don't you understand? How would you be seeing someone else and I wouldn't know. I only suspected. I had to ask you, if I didn't, you wouldn't even tell me" "I just want to have a new life. Why are you so bothered about that." "Because you're a part of my life. When did that change, Zara?""What are you driving at Ice? You're still a part of my life"He paced the room restlessly, stamping his legs to and fro like a lost wolf, he then suddenly went on his knees and held my legs."What are you doing, Ice
