Ellie's POV
On the day my journey was scheduled, I woke up too early, beaming with smiles. I couldn't sleep the day before. I was thrilled and excited and wasn't able to sleep a minute. I remembered how I broke the news to my dad. They were so proud of me and advised me to be myself. Who thought that Brian would take up admiration for me. That would be a dream come true.
I put on simple makeup and high heels and walked out of the house like the Queen I was. I was giggling and beaming with smiles.
"Miss Ellie". The driver asked as I near the car.
"Yes". He smiled sweetly at me. I got guided into a tinted black Benz and we drove away. The back seat was occupied only by me. I felt like a princess taking a ride, No, Queen. The car was fascinating and had good AC. I gaze out of the window all through the ride.
"Sorry, can I get water?" I asked when I was feeling thirsty.
"Yes ma'am. You can get it in the fridge".
"The fridge?"
"Just press the button beside you". Wow… I pressed it and the door opened bringing out a chilling, cool air. I love this. This is amazing. I widened my eyes to the drinks that were neatly arranged. This is great! I smirked. I picked out a cup and poured myself a drink while enjoying the ride to Brian's castle. I felt so relaxed and excited. The ride went smoothly and it lasted for two hours.
We entered through a gate and I watched in awe how big and magnificent the buildings in the castle was. I stepped out with my expensive shining high heel shoes Hassie picked for me and the driver guided me towards a building. The building was bigger than the rest and it stood out more than the rest.
"You can sit here". He gestured towards a couch in the living room. "The Alpha will join you soon". I nodded and walked over to the couch. The living room was out of the world. Everything seems white and golden, perfect taste.
I heard footsteps from the staircase and I knew instinctively that he was the one. I looked up at the staircase. He was wearing a white shirt and a pair of black trousers, neatly styled and ironed to suit an Alpha as he is. Seems like he's going somewhere. His shirt was not too buttoned up to his neck which exposed his masculine captivating chest. He was more than good-looking. An anime body. I've always loved him and I wish he could reciprocate it. If it's just for once, I will be glad. Brian!
Before me sat the most handsome man I'd ever seen. I'd really do anything for him.
"Good morning Alpha Brian".
"Morning Ellie. How was your ride here?" His voice was lovely and had become more deep.
"I love it. It was comfortable". I grinned.
Silence filled the air while he stared at me lustfully. Immediately, he stood up and gestured to me to do the same.
"Get up. Let me take you out. We can discuss more there".
We got into his car where we took a ride to one of the most expensive restaurants in the pack. The restaurant ain't for the poor or common man. A Classy one!
We were directed to the VIP section where we became the only ones using it. We sat around a table while he made the order.
"Do you need something?" The waiter asked.
"Nope. Just give me what he ordered already." I replied.
"You look better than in your school days. You've grown prettier." I blushed at his words. He has never complimented me before. Always avoided me like a plaque in school. Money and fame do change things, it changes how people look at you, how they see you. It buys respect. A new you!
"Ellie". He called out while we were eating. I hummed a reply to him and urged him to speak.
"I really need your help on something". He said and I froze for a second. The Alpha, Alpha Brian needs my help. This better be good.
"I know I have been so mean to you during our school days but I want to make up to you". I stared at him confused and lost.
"What do you mean?"
"Please, let me". He said and went down on his knees bringing out a ring. An expensive diamond ring. I gasped and stood up immediately.
"W..What are you doing, Brian"? I stuttered.
"Accept the ring and I will make you understand". I looked around and saw that no one was in sight.
Brian has been serious. So Serious!
I smiled widely and slipped the ring to my fingers. It looks so enchanting. I will never let these moments pass.
"This ring is expensive, Brian".
"Yes, it's from Dubai".
"Really. How much is it?"
"Two million dollars".
"What?" I screamed out aloud. He came closer and hugged me tightly to himself.
"You will have more than this if you accept my deal.
I stood admiring the mansion in front of me with my mouth agape. It was breathtaking.. Each corner of the wall was beautifully carved. This building is worth millions and Brian spoke in a language I couldn't quite understand but still understood.
"It's yours". I screamed out aloud and rushed forward. It has a carpark and a car was packed in it.
"And everything in it". I gasped and walked inside the building admiring the color. The designs were made with complete care. Spotless white paint with sky blue, the house was undeniably breathtaking. The well trimmed plants added beauty to the compound and mansion.
I turned back to Brian and wondered why he's doing all this.
"Tell me, what do you want?" He grinned at me and pulled me down to sit.
"I need a wife to stay long on the Alpha's throne or else I would be dethroned and my twin would rule the Southern Crescent Pack".
"Then, get your mate".
"I don't know where she is. That's the problem. Ellie!" I stared at him wondering what he really wanted me to do.
"Do y..you w..wan..t me to act as your wife?"
"No, I want you to be my wife". He said. I stared at him gobsmacked and tried processing. Isn't this wrong?
"Isn't it wrong?"
"No, it isn't. You are helping me, Ellie and I'm sure the moon goddess won't find anything wrong about it.
"I..I don't think I can do this".
"But you like me, don't you?" He asked. I sighed and felt stupid. Have always wanted him, now it's the time. Buh what if he comes across with his mate?
"Ellie!"
"I will do it". I voiced out not minding the consequences. This building costs twenty-two million dollars. He bought a ring worth two million dollars. A diamond ring from Dubai for me. And I love him. I really love him.
"Thanks Ellie. You don't know how much this means to me".
"So, am I staying here?"
"No, you will stay with me in the Pack
Estate". The Pack Estate?
"You know I can't stay with you in the Pack Estate. It's against the Moon Goddess rule".
"Nothing will happen. I've brought numerous ladies and nothing happened to them". Wow… My eyes fell at his words and I tore my gaze away from him.
"I didn't mean it that way".
"I understand. But I can't live with you in the Pack Estate". The moon goddess is against unmarried or unmated couple to live together in the Pack Estate. Whoever defiles the law, the woman will be barren while the guy won't be able to produce kids.
"I'm not ready to risk my life". I muttered silently.
Ellie's POVBrian insisted that I should move with him to the Park estate. I didn't disagree with him because I wanted to. Yea, I wanted to move with him, I wanted him to claim me. True, it's against the moon goddess but I wouldn't want to miss this opportunity. I've been in love with this guy for five good years. He brought a ring worth millions for me. He gave me a house at the most luxurious part of the pack. A house worth millions. A house that I can't afford overnight. How could I disagree? Wouldn't I be considered an ingrate? He has been busy over the past three days. We only talked on the phone and video call one another. For the three days he has been so cool. I found myself falling for him more. He traveled to Medina for urgent business work and I have been signing deals, having brands but being with Brian would expand my business world and give me more business opportunities. "Ellie, don't you think this will have dire consequences. Because it's against the moon goddess".
Casmien's POV"Babe, you love me right?" Kelly asked, drawing imaginary lines on my chest. I wrapped my hands on her waist and pulled her closer. "Mm" I hummed. I've been with Kelly for two years but with no attraction. I like her but I don't love her. I dated her because I don't want to be overthrown as the Alpha. She knew this but she always hoped my feelings for her would change. "Casmien". She called out. "Yes". "When are we going for a vacation? I want to spend time with you. I want to have fun outside this Estate". She whined. "My hands are full. I'm busy". "Then, make some time for me. I want to spend time with you but it seems like you don't want to spend some time with me.""I do". "Then prove it by making some time for me. Please, Casmien". "Okay, I will". I said, sighing tiredly. A scent hit me hard almost immediately, like strawberry. I sniffed the scent in and it makes my body excited and in need. "Is anything the matter?""What? No". "Casmien, Brian brought a….
Ellie's POVI sat in my room looking dejected and sober. I poured out a drink for myself and kept gulping it down. It has been one week since that incident happened. I left the estate and stayed at the house Brian bought for me. I'm even ashamed to stay at what he bought for me. My love for him vanished the moment I knew my mate. The moment I gave my virginity to Casmien. I wanted to avoid Casmien. That was why I left the Pack Estate. And I wanted to avoid Kelly. She would be so heartbroken even though Casmien is not her mate, I heard she has fallen deeply for him. Brian wants me back at all costs. Even though Casmien had marked me, he still wanted me back. He has only two months to be engaged to a girl or else his Alpha position will be moved from him to Casmien. Casmien is an Alpha of the Northern Crescent Pack while Brian is an Alpha of the Southern Crescent Pack. If Brian fails to get engaged to a girl within two months, Casmien would rule both the Northern and Southern Packs an
Ellie's POV Oh my God! I'm pregnant and I'm pregnant for Casmien, he is the only person that has slept with me before and he took away my virginity. Since Brian discovered us in his room, and learnt that he had claimed me, he has refused to talk to me. The anger of what happened is still fresh and heavy in his heart, most of the time I feel so downcast because no one would talk to me, I would just be lonely and Hassie can't visit all the times, she has tedious work to do as my manager. I would sit on my bed in a different room, the one Brian gave me. He wouldn't let me continue to stay in his room, he says each time he meets me that he is disgusted by me. He can't stay in the same room with a woman who sold herself to another man whom she claims to be her mate. Even when he realizes that Casmien is my mate, he refuses to admit it. Right now I don't know what to do, I can't continue to live this lonely life, always staying indoors and having a miserable life. I have deep love for Cas
For a minute, I stare at the screen without motion or saying anything, my spirit is gone off in thoughts. I later realized myself when the horn of a car behind me woke me up to consciousness. For the period I've been stationed here, I didn't realize where I'm packing is an entrance to someone's apartment. I immediately drop the phone in front, start the car and move on, not minding stopping again until I reach where I'm going to. As I enter the expressway, all fears and thoughts about Casmien vanish like it was a puff of smoke blown by the wind. I become myself once again. The traffic today is one of the smoothest, very free and so in barely twenty minutes time, I arrive at my company situated in the center of town, that part of the Southern Crescent Pack which is considered as the business hub of the pack because of the many companies and stores as well as warehouses that are situated around. I pack the car at the garage. Hassie is already there to welcome me. I had told her a few
A loud cheer and applause emanates from the audience, most of them rise to their feet to clap and congratulate me but I keep my head high lest this makes my defense grow low. I smile in appreciation for the acknowledgement they are giving to me. On the podium are two seats which I sense are for me and Hassie. I don't think they should be there, I would rise in delivering my speech and once I'm done, I'm off the stage, there is no need for these seats which are positioned as if I'm here for an interview. Hassie steps up to the platform to use the mic. "Good morning ladies and gentlemen," she pauses to receive the response. "Today is a great day because today I will be introducing our honorable CEO to you. Help me welcome Her Majesty, Queen Hassie, the current winner of the Miss Wolf World. Let's welcome her to the podium to make her speech with a round of applause." The entire room vibrates with the sound of clapping hands, heavily falling like some heavy rain from the sky, beatin
Even after leaving the office after work in the afternoon, I still think of what to do. I know this is costly and a million and half dollars is no small money, it isn't something to waste but I wouldn't consider using it on this as a waste. The pageantry handed me a sum of thirty million dollars and since I got it I haven't really used it because I had nothing to spend on. Taking out one million, five hundred thousand dollars wouldn't make me poor, as long as I have kept the money without removing it to buy a single thing just because I didn't find that necessary, I can keep the money in my account without withdrawing to get anything that wouldn't be so important. My mind steadies on the road as I drive home. Hassie offered to help me but I ask her not to bother because there has been a ban on the habit of bringing in friends except family members. Alpha Casmien placed the ban two months ago but it wasn't in effect till last week where he asked his security to chase a man following
"Hassie, I'll call you later! " I hung up, placing the phone on flight mode so that she wouldn't be able to call again. I surely know she would and this would be a major source of distraction to me. I zoom off heading upwards from the junction. I paid attention to the sound, it wasn't that of multiple cars, how would Casmien send multiple police cars to come after me, am I a criminal? Since it's only one car, it will be difficult to catch me with the direction I'm going. An idea flashes in my mind. They might track you using your phone! This is very true, to counter this, I switch my phone off after turning off the location. I do leave my G****e location on incase there is anything wrong and I would be easily tracked though I'm not praying for this to happen to me, but in this case where I don't want to be tracked, I have to switch it off. To settle matters, I'll go to the Court for Mating and Social Responsibility, abbreviated as CMaSR, for the report of the case. Alpha Casmien no
