Accidental Claim 32 After The Event
Jasper I left for work in the morning before Ruby woke up. She was so distraught and cried most of the night. It really broke my heart. I needed the showroom up and running in no time. I had a plan, and I needed to speed things up. It was okay to suck and be a nobody alone, but hearing them use those words on my mate got to me. It took a lot of control for Leon not to go on a rampage. I was determined to never let them have a reason to use those hurtful words on my mate again. I got to work and went straight to the workshop. My assistant, Godwin, was yet to resume, so I decided to attempt calling Liam. I was hopeful that he might have access to phone service now. He was a businessman, so he could only be away from his phone for some time. Two weeks was a long break. I was hoping to get through this time. My heart soared when his number began to ring. He answered. "Jasper! how have you been?" He asked me, as always, and I replied "I need your help," I said, and he was attentive.
Accidental Claim 33 Working On The Plan
Jasper I closed early and went straight home. I entered the house, and Ruby was not on the couch in the living room. I looked at the kitchen countertop, and the pancakes I made her for breakfast were still there. I hurried to the room, afraid she had run away. I was relieved to see her sitting by the window and looking outside. She was wearing my T-shirt. Her feet were on their couch, and she was hugging her knees. " Ruby?" I said, and she looked at me slowly. She wasn't her happy self, and my heart dropped. I didn't know if it was wise to tell her Racheal came by because even though she would be happy, she would also be sad because of the things Racheal had told me, so I kept it to myself. I went to her and squatted by the chair to see her face. " You didn't eat your food," I said, and she began to cry. " I can't go on like this. I can't go anywhere. I cannot work; I cannot dream." She said, and I hugged her. " I am working on it, Ruby. Soon you will be able to do all those thin
Accidental Claim 34 The Showroom
Ruby I followed Jasper to town to check out the showroom the next day. It was much more beautiful than it looked on the phone. It was also in a pricy part of town. We entered, and the place was breathtaking. They were yet to bring the sample furniture, and he said Godwin, his former colleague and now employee, would have them delivered and arranged the next day. There wasn't much to see, so he ushered me to my office. It was a beautifully decorated office with a luxury desk and a swivel chair. There was a couch with a small table and a television; the office was large and striking. Jasper walked in and closed the door behind him. He looked at me smiling. " You did all this?" I asked him, touched, and he nodded. I ran to him and kissed him deeply. I had never kissed him that way, but for the first time since the claiming incident, I was hopeful that I would get somewhere in life. " Jasper, I hope we are not in too much debt?" I asked him, worried that he might end up getting himsel
Accidental Claim 35 New Beginnings
Jasper. I had not seen Ruby so happy before. She kissed me differently and responded to my touch differently. I wanted to see her happy more. She was so delighted that she went on and on about the business most of the night. She snuggled into my arms. She made the first moves for the first time since we became mates, and I was happy too. When she asked me to love her, I was surprised that she would use the L-word with me. I had to make it count. After talking for a while, she finally fell asleep. I had resigned from Burke's corp. Godwin was helping with moving the sample furniture to the showroom the next day in preparation for the luncheon. The workers got it all covered, and they said I should relax at home. They got paid well, and the treatment was better, which made them love working at the workshop. They teased me about my mate. I did not figure we were both named after precious stones until they teased me about it. Soon I fell asleep. I woke up in the morning, and Ruby was
Accidental Claim 36 Shocking Revelation
Ruby When Jasper asked if I was happy, it got me thinking. I knew and felt he wanted a definite answer, but I couldn't give him one. Was I pleased with the direction things are going? Yes, I was. I didn't think it would ever happen. When I saw how Jasper lived, I thought my life was over. I tried to get a job to save money and leave, but no one would hire me, so I became depressed. I saw his efforts to make me happy, and I decided to adjust to my new life. I believe I was not in love with him, and neither was he in love with me. We were together because we had no choice. His wolf sunk his teeth into my neck, and now we were stuck together. Would I have had more with Randolph? Maybe not, but I doubted Alpha Hill would beat me with silver. The man would have worshipped me because I was bound to birth strong pups that would succeed his son when the time comes. I was glad that Jasper was making efforts, and they were working, but I wasn't happy. It would have been great if I chose this l
Accidental Claim 37 Tifanny Murray
Jasper Tiffany asked me to meet her up at a fancy restaurant in town. She asked me to come with my catalogue because we would be spending the entire day there. I left Ruby in the house and headed for the meeting immediately. Ruby's response to my question somehow got to me, but I did not blame her for being honest. The truth was, she wouldn't have allowed me to claim her. I wasn't her dream man. As much as I said she did not want Randolph, she did not kick against her joining; she was just being rebellious when she got with me. She wanted to fuck me for the fun of it, but Leon changed the dimension of things. I realised that just as we had met in the club and gone to the motel, we were doing the same thing right now. We were just fucking. Ruby had accepted that no one would want her, and she could never be with anyone ever, and that was why she was making it work. It wasn't like she was in love or happy; she had just accepted her situation and was learning to live with it. It was
Accidental Claim 38 Lipstick
Ruby I spent some hours with Racheal. I did not know how best to console her, and I couldn't condemn her because she was already beaten down. Randolph was right; what she did was low, but I hoped he would forgive her and they could move on with their lives. It serves him right for trying to play with a woman's heart. He wanted to sleep with her and then leave her for someone else. Racheal was just being smart. While I held her, I realised I did the same thing to Jasper. I only wanted to have fun with him, fuck him a couple of times until the joining. Racheal was just like Jasper, but he did not claim me deliberately unlike her. Thinking about it, I felt like crap. It wasn't cool to use people and hope they would not react. The workers in Racheal's house had no respect for her, and I knew my friend was living in hell. They all knew what she did, and I was worried the entire pack would find out. I trusted her father to try to put this on me. I wouldn't be surprised if she is 'banne
Accidental Claim 39 All I have
Ruby I woke up early in the morning the next day. I wasn't so enthusiastic about resuming work. Firstly I wasn't happy about Jasper sleeping with Tifanny, and after what transpired between Racheal and Randolph, I doubted he would let her resume work. I dragged myself out of bed and went to get ready. By the time I was through, Jasper was leaving. " Won't you eat something?" I asked him, and he smiled at me. " I can't, Ruby. I just got a call from Tifanny. Godwin and I are meeting her for breakfast to discuss certain things," He said, and I was annoyed, but I hid it. " I thought you had discussed everything yesterday?" I asked him, hoping he would come out and say they were dating to my face. " Well, she wants to meet up again," He said, and I did not argue with him. I just let him leave. By the time he left, images of him and her began to play on my mind, and my hands began to shake. Jasper was an asshole. He spent the whole day with her, maybe in bed, then returned last night
