**Turstin's POV **I was in my office, attending to pending projects I have at hand, when I heard the click-clacking of heels in my office. I raised my head up only to see Victoria swaying her hips into my office. “Hello, my love!”“What the hell are you doing in my office? Didn't goodness, my secretary tell you I don't want to see anyone.”“You're right. But I'm not anyone.”I raised an instant brow at her statement. “What are you trying to say?”“What else, I'm your woman and we'll be getting married soon. Everyone already knows about this, so why are you still pretending that you have no idea what's going on?This made me get up from my chair all at once. There's not a day on earth that she wouldn't do or say something to eat on my nerves. “Listen to me, Victoria, I don't know what gave you the notion that I want something with you. But then, I'm going to say it again: whatever you think happened between us, is no reason for you to think that will automatically lead you to my b
**Turstin's POV **They all turn in my direction, breathing heavily. I'm yet to find out what the problem was, but they were all staring at me, not saying a word. “Am I not talking to you? What in the world is happening here? Why have you all decided to lose your sanity and dared to fight in the pack, and in the presence of all your pack members? Just what the fuck is wrong with all of you?”“What is wrong?” Cole asked as he walked up to me. “Yes. I am entitled to know because this is my pack, and you all deserve to give the pack the peace and tranquility it deserves!”“Don't you think it's too late for wanting peace and tranquility in the pack? With everything that has been going in, I don't think peace is what is needed if you ask me. “If not peace, then what does the pack need? Three mature men acting more like rogues in the woods? Is that the right way to go about whatever issue you have?”“Now that you're here, how about you start by telling us when your wedding will be, huh?”
**Gael's POV ***The day was busy. I looked at the time, and it says, 4:30pm. I'm supposed to meet Fred by 5pm today. Since I've been a workaholic ever since I returned to my apartment, Fred had told me that he wanted us to meet. I can't agree more. I have been too busy to the point that I began to feel a terrible headache. I should probably hit the bar. I need that so badly at the moment. Just as I had thought, I suddenly got a call on my phone. I quickly picked up the phone which I had placed on my desk. Looking at the caller, I found out it was Fred. Speaking of the devil. I smiled, looking at my phone. Quickly, I clicked on the answer button and directed the call to my ears. “Yes, how may I help you?”“Gael, are you being serious with me right now? Don't tell me you're not prepared yet?”“Well, the thing is…I'm still very much busy and might not be able to keep up to time, sorry,” I said the words while chuckling hard. “Where are you right now?” Fred asked. From the backgrou
**Gael's POV***Fred sighed and slowly took my hands off his shoulder. Come on, Gael, I'm your friend. It can't be that you're thinking I'll make you meet just anyone. Just trust me, you'll be happy when you finally see her.”“What? Did you just say, “her?”“Yea, you heard me right, it's her,” he said, turning around and walking into the club. “Come on, Gael, stop acting like a sissy, please.”Who exactly is he taking me to? Okay, I know Fred has no idea about this. But aside from the Barclay Brothers, the other person I'm most afraid of meeting is a lady. Judging from what I am, it's not a good idea to have a woman by my side. Just then, we arrived at the main club, where I saw crowds dancing and drinking. Presently, there's only one way to describe how I feel, and it's nothing but regret. No matter what, I don't feel good coming to the club at all. I should have just stayed back in my house. “You're finally here, Gael!”A familiar voice said behind me. Immediately, I turned aro
**Turstin's POV***It's the weekend and I decided to visit the club of a good friend of mine. He's human and the only human I've been close with and doing business with. Though, this is actually because he got mated to a werewolf who he now has kids with. So, he's not worried about the identity of the Werewolves. It's been a long week and I felt stressed out. I felt like this is an opportunity for me to relax and get myself a few drinks. Also, it happens that it's the birthday of his wife who is a werewolf. “Alpha Turstin, it's so good to see you…" Marina said, rushing towards me with arms opened wide and a smile on her face.“Marina, it's so good to see you too. Happy birthday to you,” I said, stretching a package containing a gift box towards her. “Oh my goodness! Alpha Turstin, I'm so honored to receive a gift from you this year as well, I'm so grateful!” She said jumping for joy. “Alpha Turstin, you came just as you said. It's indeed so good to see you,” Nathan said, as he cam
**Gael's POV**I pinched Fred, who immediately flinched. “Gael has got a lot of work to do, so that's why I think it's best if I take you instead. What do you think?”Tracy curled her lips and rolled her eyes from side to side, then she let out a brief sigh. “Alright. I agree. You can take me, but next time you'll take me home Gael, is that alright.”“Of course…" I said between laughs while staring at Fred awkwardly. Shit! This is so not what I had wanted. "Alright, let's, head out. Just as we headed out of the club, we suddenly saw a group of people coming our way. Due to how many they were, I quickly grabbed Fred by the hand. “Uhm, Fred, can you see the crowd? I think it's best we let them pass before going out,” I stated cautiously. “You're right.”With that, we all stood by the corner to let the group pass. While in my little corner, I can't help but take a peek at them. The passage was dark and the only light that shone was a blue disco light, which made it difficult for me
**Gael's POV***“Brother look who we have here, Gael, and of course, his friends,” Alan reported happily, still holding on to me like I was going to escape any minute from then. “Gael,” he whispered my name while staring at me. Currently, my heart was beating rather fast that I didn't even know what to do at the moment. “H…how have you been?” He asked further. “I've been okay,” I uttered with a cracked voice that wasn't audible enough. The awkwardness I feel at the moment was second to none. I wish I could just disappear into thin air, just like that. Maybe that would help the situation I was in at the moment. “Gael, you'll sit with us,” Alan whispered into my ears as he took me towards the chair opposite Turstin's. We were all sitting at a round table and staring at one another. As for Fred and Tracy, they are placed at the extreme end of the table where I can't reach them at all. Alan sat on my left while Thale sat at my right. Turstin on the other hand did not move his gaze a
**Gael's POV***“Please don't come near me, I beg you,” I pleaded, taking my gaze away from him. He paused and didn't say a word. At first, I thought he would listen. To me and do exactly as I say, but I was wrong. He rather cleared his throat and began walking towards me again. “Gael, I know how you feel, but you have no idea just how much I missed you. Do you?”Hell no. I shook my head. There's no way I'm going to listen to his words. Not today, not ever. P“I believe you know that I actually left your Mansion because I want nothing to do with you.”“Why? What happened? Was it because of what happened with Stacey? Did you really think that I would actually do something like that? Is that it?”“For one, I don't actually mistrust you. But there's a lot I found out while leaving your Mansion, Turstin.”He walked closer to me, even when I asked him to stay back. “Why don't you tell me what they are? I'll explain everything you need to know, trust me.”I scoffed at his statement. “It
