**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
**Cole's POV***I was handling my businesses as usual when I suddenly got a text from Marina. “Cole, are you still coming or not? Your brothers are all here.”I have so much work to do, and I'm afraid I might have to disappoint her. Marina is originally from our pack, but ever since she got mated to a human, she decides to move out of the pack to be with her mate and manage his club with him.I have been too busy chasing Gael that I neglected my company for more than a year now. If I don't handle the affairs of my company, I'm afraid I might lose my company at the rate I was going. I need to attend a meeting the next morning. Can't go clubbing now, knowing fully well that I might get myself drunk. I heaved a sigh, knowing I'll have to disappoint Marina. And besides, my brothers are there. The last thing I wanted was to see their annoying faces. I still can't forgive Turstin for what happened. And knowing what Gael was now, I don't even know what to say or do around them. I still fe
**Gael's POV**Seeing Cole in front of me suddenly brought beads of sweat on my forehead. Matter of fact, I could feel my sweat dripping down the corner of my face. “Brother, what's going on here? Why are you holding the drunk by his neck?” Alan asked curiously.While all this was going on, I can't help but notice Cole was staring at no one else but me. But why me? “He dared to push Gael,” Turstin replied, still holding the drunk on the neck. “What?!” They all responded at once. Shit! I had totally forgotten that Turstin only promised to release him if I promised to go with him. Now, with all the brothers present currently, there's no way I will be able to give him a reply. Shit! I have to get outta here as soon as possible. “Please let him go, he's wasted already,” I pleaded with the drunk for the last time. Lord knows what will happen to the man if I were to let Turstin handle the situation. “You haven't fulfilled your part of the promise. That is the only way I'll let him go
**Gael's POV***I can't take it. I just can't bear it anymore. “We quarrel each day and are envious of one another. Who do you think is the problem here?”“Enough!” I screamed out. This must have taken them all surprised, seeing that they all paused and took their gazes towards me. “Gael, did this, Gael did that! You know what? I'm sick and tired of the tantrums you throw. You all are all fucking bunches of cowards. You deny your feelings and somehow constantly try to make it my fault. Until when are you all going to torture me this way, huh?” They all stared at me wide-eyed and dumbfounded. I don't care what they think presently, I only care about myself. I only care about how I'm going to pull through this. Nothing concerns me and what they think about me anymore! “What? Are you all shocked to see me lose my temper this way? Do you think I can't lose my temper too? You think you are the only ones who can get mad and show me your fangs and claws? Well, I'm human, and I don't hav
