His Fifth Mate 32
Chapter 32Clarissa POVMy day was spent horribly since I couldn't even concentrate at work. I got a call from Miguel when I got to work this morning, and he told me he had something to take care of, so he wouldn't be present in the office, which made my day more boring.After spending the whole day behind my desk, it was finally closing time, and just before I walk out of my office to head home, my phone suddenly starts ringing, and I stop to answer the call."Hey, it's me, Alex," his familiar voice sounds from the other end, and realization dawn on me that I haven't really thanked him for the favor he did for me yesterday. My mind has been so occupied with so many thoughts that I couldn't even think of anything else."Hey," I reply to him as I walk briskly toward the elevator."So, what do you say about the ice cream date tonight? You can't say no," His voice sounds from the other end, and I sigh briefly. I don't know why he is insisting that we go on this date, but I just hope he's

Chapter 33Clarissa POV Next dayWaking up this morning with my body aching as if I was ganged beaten in my sleep, I groan tiredly as I toss on the bed. I try to stand up from the bed, but I feel my body paralyzed for seconds, so I just lay on the bed and stare at the ceiling.Memories of yesterday night came flooding my mind, and I feel my heart wrenches as fear grips me. I don't know what has been wrong with me for the last few days, but I don't think it was all just my illusion. I really saw that.The sound of the footsteps drawing closer from outside pulls my attention, and the door finally opens, revealing the drained Charity."Are you ok?" I ask her as I watch her slump on the chair, but she only sighs deeply as she reclines on the chair."I'm not fine, Clarissa. I'm missing him," She whines before she buries her face between her palms, and I roll my eyes at her. How come she's still missing him even after what he did to her? She must be stupid."You should call him then," I sm

Chapter 34Clarissa POV "Ugh! I told you I wasn't coming out here," I whine tiredly as I drag my feet behind Charity. We have been going around all day, from restaurant to amusement park, to ice cream joint, and we are heading to the motor park to do nothing. I should've just gone to the office earlier, and not bothered to take the day off."Come on, we've been having fun, isn't it?" She turns to roll her eyes at me before she turns her gaze away and stretches her hands, throwing her head back."Fuck Mason... That dude is a bastard, and I won't think of him again," She screams out, probably to feel better, but deep inside me, I know she will still talk about missing him later, so what is the point of believing her?"What should I do, Clarissa?" She suddenly stops and turns to face me, her eyes glistening with tears, and I roll my eyes. I knew it."I thought you were not going to think about him again? How come you are crying now?" I scoff before I walk past her."It's not my fault, C

Chapter 35Charity POV The meeting with the editor went well, and my book will be published along with my other works, and I'm so happy. After being rejected by many platforms, I'm finally going to be a certified published author.'Congratulations, Miss Cha Cha, you are welcome to publish more of your work with us, and we are looking forward to partnering with you' I giggle excitedly as I walk toward the exit door. I have never been so excited all my life. It was the first step of my writing career, so why not? "Whoa! What a great thing to start the week with," I chuckle softly as I cup my cheeks in my palms, blushing hard. The thought of being a published author really hits differently, and I can't wait to write more books I've gotten ideas for. Stepping out of the exit door, I collided with someone, and I fall flat on my butt, letting out a loud whimper. Yes, I am known for exaggerating, but trust me, I feel pain in my butt."Oh, I'm sorry, Miss. Are you ok?" A deep masculine voi

Chapter 36Alpha Miguel POV'The grim reapers are after her for a reason you should find out by yourself. It'll be dangerous if they lay their hands on her. It's going to be a disaster if they should get a hold of her' those are the words Draco, whom I thought came to hurt me, instead, he came to warn me to protect my woman. I have been feeling danger lurking around her since then, and although I do not know what they want from her, I'm scared she would get hurt. Now, I'm torn between staying away from her so she can be free from getting harmed by my curse, and also keeping her by my side so she won't get harmed by those grim reapers, and it's really crazy.She must be confused after what happened yesterday, but too bad that I can't even talk to her about it, even though I want to do it. "Are you ok?" Hearing Axel's voice, I turn to see him walking inside the garden with his hands tucked inside his pockets."Hmm, I'm fine," I turn my gaze away to continue to stare at the beautiful fl

Chapter 37Alpha Miguel I stare at her, taken aback by her question. This would've been the best time to tell her of my identity, this would've been the best time to let her who know I am, but I am scared of losing her. I am scared she won't be safe if she finds out now."What...what are you talking about?" I blink my eyes at her rapidly, but she sighs instead as she runs her fingers through her hair."I'm sorry about that. I think I've just been thinking a lot lately," She replies to me, and I slowly nod my head even though I know that it's something to be worried about."Do you want to stay back at home today if you can't make it to the office?" I ask her, even though I don't want her to stay back. I'm now scared of her being alone that I don't even want her to leave my sight. I'm going to lose my mind if anything should happen to her."No... I will go to the office. You should go ahead, while I get ready and come after you," She utters, but I quickly shake my head."No... I will w

Chapter 38Clarissa POVI watch as he stares at me, I can see that he is thinking something, but I wish to know what it is that he is thinking at this moment. As I wait for him to give me the answer I want to hear, I pray silently that this isn't true. I can't imagine myself being a partner with those scary creatures if he is one. It will be the end of our relationship if he should tell me that he is really one, and I will forever stay away from him. "Are you kidding me?" He suddenly chuckles as he reclines in his chair."You must've been watching too many horror movies, or reading too many fantasies. Those creatures... I don't think they exist," He shrugs his shoulders, and I bite my bottom lip. I know what I saw wasn't imagination. I really saw that creature, and the dream too, they all make me feel like something is off."What about what you told me? You said that I should leave the bus and that it was dangerous. How did you know that? What did you mean by that?" I ask him, and he

Chapter 39Axel POV Sitting in the living room of my apartment in the city and relaxing, memories of days ago flood my mind, and I can't help but ask myself who that lady was. Who the hell was she to have moved my wolf like that? I have been trying to get rid of the thoughts all this while, but nothing seems to be working in my favor.My wolf has been craving to see her again for some reason I am clueless about. Is she our mate? I have asked myself that question a few times, but that doesn't seem to be the case.Again, I check my phone to see if I got a message or a missed call from her, but nothing yet. Everything about her was addictive. Her pair of pale blue eyes, her thick eyebrows, her perfect dentition, her dimples when she smiles, her voice, and her clumsiness were on another level that I fell for at first sight."Who is she?" I ask myself as I stare at the screen of my phone, wishing that she call me.Just when I dropped the phone, it suddenly starts ringing, but my face drop
