Chapter 39 The rejectionAUTHOR’S POVKingston felt discomfort in his chest as his eyes grazed through Nia's message. He had thought his approach had startled her, and she would have a rethink and express how much she loved him, too. He sounds delusional, but for a split second, he wanted to be very hopeful. Seeing how quickly she responded to him, it's best to accept his truth.Opening the car door, he felt weak in the legs. Making his way into the house, a string of curses rolled out of his mouth when he saw his entire family seated like they were waiting for him to return.“What is this I hear about you harboring some feelings towards the half-breed?" Levi countered the moment Kingston stepped in.Kingston glanced back at his brother, and he gave a thumbs up. Not bothering to hide the fact that he snitched on him. "I believe I am old enough to decide who I want to be with."Stephanie gave a warning glare. "You will not talk disrespect your father for a nobody. Is that clear?"“How
Chapter 40 The GoodbyeGAEL’S POV"Are you going to act this way, Gael?" Beta Ezekiel whined into my ears, making me feel more frustrated.I inhaled sincerely, trying to control my anger. "Why are you so adamant regarding this case? I just told you that I already resolved never to let her touch me. I am not going to back down now or ever. I am fine. You don't need to worry."He huffed, appearing frustrated, too. "This isn't right, Gael. You are the Alpha and should lead by example.""But I already gave them the go-ahead to get vaccinated. Why do I have to get involved?""You are just as stubborn as your father when your mind is on something. It's just a shot. Or are you scared of needles?"I stared at him, feeling insulted. "Why would you even think that?"An amused expression settled on his face. "Every man with his weakness, don't you think?"I rolled my eyes, feeling very much insulted. "That's enough. I already made up my mind. Let's end the discussion if you don't have any other
Chapter 41 Her OutburstGAEL’S POVI sighed as I leaned against a tree trunk, staring at the dark sky with the stars complimenting its state. For some unknown reason, I find myself taking strolls towards the garden. Maybe I do have something that I am so not going to admit in mind. Or I might need to stretch my legs. The day just went in a haze. Not having Ezra to taunt and frustrate isn't fun at all. He left the pack on an official assignment and wouldn't be back until the end of the week. It feels like torture since I will have to be stuck with Gemma.She keeps showing her face daily, and I wouldn't say I like it. It gets lonely sometimes. Not even the tons of concubines I have can fill up that emptiness. Many times, I reflect on when my parents were alive. Life was good then; I had bright hopes for the future and wanted nothing more but to grow old with them. I learned that good things don't last, and it scared me. I know this lifestyle of mine will only complicate my toxic life. B
Chapter 42 The perfect bodyGAEL’S POVI carried my wolf confidently through the lines of the woods; I love moments like this when I can be alone by myself, in my wolf form, and not bothering anyone or the pack. Just then, I heard a loud, excited pant at the other side of where I stood. Whoever that is is sure in a good mood. However, their delight puts me in a touchy mood. I don't particularly appreciate sharing my intended lone time with anyone. I know I have no control over who gets access to the woods, but that doesn't mean I should accept being interrupted.I decided to ignore whoever it was and focus on enjoying the serenity. However, the person's wolf seems to lack courtesy. I ran backward to see what was happening when a scream echoed in the woods. Is someone getting hurt? I stood behind a large tree to peek at who it was. The day is getting quite dark, so whoever it is won't notice someone is out here watching. My wolf eyes shined at an incredible light when the wolf shifted
Chapter 43 The GuestAUTHOR’S POV“I can't believe this?” Mindy screamed, kicking the couch and hitting it with her bag again.The humiliation Nia put her through made her furious, and the only thing that came to her mind was strangling her. She almost couldn't wrap her head around Nia threatening her. Everyone knows how meek she is, and having her turn around to look Mindy directly in the eye means she is getting the courage from somewhere.Caleb strolled into the living room, yawning. He had just woken up from the afternoon nap he took. “Can't one have peace in this forsaken house? Why are you screaming like a banshee? Did you get dropped off a tall building or what?” She glared hard at her brother, “If you have nothing intelligent to say. It's best if you keep your bloody mouth shut. Don't annoy me any further.” He lay on the long couch, spreading his arms and legs lazily. "What's wrong?"Faking tears, she dumped herself into the couch. “I am so embarrassed, and I don't know ho
Chapter 44 His feelingsGAEL’S POVI rubbed at my neck as I stretched it to see if the half-breed was anywhere near. I haven't seen much of her around, and for some unknown reason, I want to see her again. Even though she would act all sassy with me, I would like to see it. My conscience has been haunting me for days, long over the conversation we had the last time. I think I said too much, and I don't know what is happening. It's very unusual for me to be bothered about how people feel when I tell them off. It must be why I want nothing to do with the half-breed.Humans are tricksters and hypnotists, making you start following them like a lost fool. But Nia's case is overboard. She is half flesh and half wild. I find myself constantly thinking of how she would taste. I would instead not think of it, but I can't help it. Not after I got a glimpse of her entire body. Her beauty is dangerous, and that body will leave me begging for more. To think I have seen many naked women; however, t
Chapter 45 Revenge MissionNIA’S POVA blush crept up my cheeks as I stared intently at the box of chocolate Ezra had gotten me. If he continues, I might fall head over heels in love with him. He is sweet and considerate, always showing up with goodies in hand whenever he comes to see me. Ezra and his sister make me feel alive like my world is complete. But it all fades away when none of them is nearby to assure me everything will be okay. I think I like Ezra, and I might want something beyond mere friendship with him; at the same time, I don't feel deserving of him.He deserves someone he can lean on. Someone to hold him up when he is down, and that implies a confident person for someone like Ezra, who has had to shoulder plenty of things growing up. He also needs to be pampered. I would love to be all of that for him, but I am too doubtful of myself. Also, what's the assurance he desires me differently? He is probably just being nice because Perry asked him to. As sweet as that migh
Chapter 46 Her obsessionGAEL’S POV“Hmmm.” I moaned softly, stretching out my arm on the couch while watching the lady bounce her head as she sucked my dick passionately. It feels so good just to get sucked and be relieved of whatever stress I might be going through.This week has been one hell of a week. I had meetings with different intending investors. I intentionally had them all scrutinized to be sure whatever they were bringing to us would be of greater good to the betterment of the pack. Not only that, but I got so busy that I didn't get to fuck for five straight days. It's very unlike me. Even now, I don't feel like fucking anyone. It's just best to get a blowjob. Every limb inside of me seems to have weakened with resolve.I can't get the half-breed off my mind, and I hate that. Even though the incident was over a week, I can't get over that look in her eyes. She was scared and tried to conceal it. I still haven't decided on what will become of this stupid family of hers. The
