“The question is where is he hiding and why?” Rick was the one to question since everybody else was just silently sitting around the phone and looking at his caller ID.
We have called Silas home, who hadn’t sat down ever since he had found out about Desmond contacting Vanessa. He was breathing like a bull and walking back and forth around us.
“Because I took everything back from him,” Silas muttered whilst not stopping. At this rate, he would have traveled the world even if he had taken breaks. He had been working up his poor feet like that would solve the problem.
“When?” Rick inquired, stealing eyes from us because he knew even I wasn’t told anything about what happened to Desmond.
“Okay!” Silas gave a little rest to his crazy walk and took a deep breath in to speak up, “after I made him rich, I attempted to contact him back again,” he finished as if he knew there will be some quest
“Is Hope all dressed up?” I was standing in front of the mirror, watching the hairdresser set my hairstyle with a diamond crown on my head. My wedding dress was designed for royalty; it was a long white dress decorated with white gemstones for a Luna Queen. It was way heavier than I thought it would be, but it was all fine. At least better than wearing a mask like others. Vanessa was my bride’s maid and wearing a peach pink long gown, looking all elegant too.“Everything is ready. I will just have to go out and receive that as*hole,” as she mentioned Desmond, my mood changed. I didn’t want the wedding to be all about him but it was the one last war that I needed to win.“I am so sorry,” she instantly acknowledged what she has done but I don’t blame her. In fact, I have more to speak to her about.“Nessa! Can you bring Rick here?” I requested to see him after dismissing everybody else.&ldqu
The after-party started right away but we had our own little fun planned. I saw Nessa walking behind Desmond, who was angrily trying to get away from her. The two stopped after she held his hand and stopped him from leaving.Silas, Rick, and I had followed them but didn’t come forward to announce our presence. They were standing near the trees to talk, while we stayed behind the bushes to wait for them.“I thought you said he was going to reject her?” he yelled at Nessa, not realizing he was outing himself.“I was wrong! But why does it seem like you are so mad about this?” she inquired, feeling confident once she noticed we were there to help us if he tries to do anything.“I am not mad; it is just--- I was worried for the poor girl the whole night. You got me worried for nothing,” he shouted once he couldn’t come up with an explanation to his behavior.“It doesn’t seem like that though,&
When your luck is bad, you find an excuse to screw yourself over, no matter how careful you are. The morning breeze wasn’t very fresh and calming that day. It felt like a million needles were inserted into my muscles. I pulled my skirt down unintentionally when the wind caused my skin to shiver. I tried changing sides, but the sore part of my body was the only part I could stay lying down on. "Ehh!" My lips let out a sigh of pain when I closed my arms on my chest. "Umm!" I groaned, forcing my eyelids open. The very first thing in the view was not the windchimes by my window that I usually wake up to. It was a window of a building on a crumbled plaster wall. It took me a second, but I somehow managed to acknowledge that I wasn’t in my comfortable king-sized bed, but on a goddamn road. "What the heck!" the shock made me pull my body up, so I was sitting and look around at the surroundings. "I slept here." I asked myself out of disbelief. I slept on a street with a dumpster. I began t
I hadn’t been able to process through the turn of events after finding out that The Alpha King was my mate.I wish I could just stop there without adding that my mate tossed me out of the car after stealing my virginity in the most uncomfortable way possible.“I am only 18!” I complained, sitting on the stool and watching my image in the dressing table’s mirror. I was basically a few months over 18 but the Alpha’s kids were not allowed to lose their virginity before they have found their mate and have marked each other.It’s been a few days and I wasn’t able to get a hold of Mr. Silas Charming or anyone from his pack. I just needed a moment to speak to him and ask him did he not feel the mate bond?“Ugh!” covering my face in my hands, I let my lips heave a sigh of exhaustion. My pack was celebrating Roxanne Whitlock’s 19th birthday today and obviously, I didn’t get the invite. I
“Huh! I have told him million times that a rouge’s daughter will always be a rouge. She will scar his reputation someday but he never listened to me,” Tessa was growling and hitting my head repeatedly after she had blasted the bomb on me. It had been a few hours that I passed out after getting the news and woke up way later to her scolding me again.I am pregnant?“Just wait till I tell your father how big of a nasty dirt you are to his name,” she grabbed the test to sprint out and tell dad everything. For a moment, I couldn’t decide if I should follow her and beg her to not do that or just tell her some crazy story about how I got pregnant?“Please wait!” I almost tripped on the table, rushing before her and closing the door to block her from leaving, “please don’t do this. Dad has always loved me and supported me, he will be so disappointed, please!” I begged when her eyes glare at me for preven
The next few days were weird; I was pregnant without any care. I had to pretend like everything was fine by dancing around and doing my normal routine stuff. There were times when I threw up in the school but thankfully, Esa was there to come up with an excuse. I have not told her about my pregnancy, she just thought I was having digestion problems.“Rick Wards!” I mumbled in my mouth, scrolling through his profile on my laptop. He was the Royal Beta of the Reckless Growlers Pack, the Alpha King Silas Charming’s Royal Beta.‘We should contact him,’ I whispered to Icy,‘Do you think he will care?’ she asked back, her agitation had been on the rise now. He was our mate and had got us pregnant, now he needs to come here and mark us so that we can live a respectful life before the truth about my pregnancy hits the news.‘He has to, we are his mate,’ I comforted her with the idea of the true mates not being
She hadn’t said a word and left my room like she had seen a ghost. I don’t even care if she believed me or not, it just gave me a bit of satisfaction to think she won’t be able to hurt me or my child if the Alpha King himself accepts me and marks me. Nobody would know if he had marked me before getting me pregnant or after us mating, so it will be a win-win situation for us.I didn’t do anything afterward and fell asleep right away only to wake up in the morning at my stomach growling.‘Our baby needs food and good rest,’ Icy spoke to me when I was getting ready for breakfast.‘I know, just two minutes,’ I replied, applying lipstick and checking my image one last time in the mirror.‘Octavia! You can’t act like that with a baby in your womb. Your first priority should be the baby,’ she argued back again. I know I was pregnant but what do I do now? I cannot stop living so I have to take care
"You want me to abort the baby?" I was surprised that my father even suggested something like that."You want to keep this baby?" the looking father gave me was enough evidence that he wouldn't ever allow it.It wasn't even about being a pregnant teen anymore, this was my and my mate's baby, I cannot abandon our baby."Thi---s is my mate's baby," I stuttered while placing a hand on my belly. Although they can't see it now, I can already feel the presence inside me."I cannot believe you had this in you this entire time and I didn't see it," it was my father saying those words for me. There was only one person who had made me believe in myself ever since I started understanding things and that same person wasn't even ready to hear me or understand me.
