It had been a stressful week for Ava. Almost every day was stressful for her. What with her fainting the previous day and adamantly rejecting the day off that Alpha Damon gave her?It wasn't even close to the weekend, but she already felt so exhausted. She needed a break and a well-soothing one at that. The weekend felt so far away, but she would rather get this project over and done with.It was a busy day in the office as usual. The past few weeks had come with an increased workload, and a generous amount fell on her shoulders. She loathed Jude all over when she had that much of the work to do, silently cursing him in her mind.The only thing that was pushing her was the fact that as the workload increased, her work with alpha Damon was also coming to an end. A part of her was happy, but a part of her was also sad. After all, the baby was his, and no matter how much she tried to run away from him, there was something that would always remind her of him forever. It was something t
Ava sighed both in exhaustion and relief as she pushed the door to her room open and stepped in. Exhaustion because she had been out most of the day and relief be she was finally at home. Kicking off her shoes, she walked straight to the bed and collapsed on it, lying face up, her arms spread her feet dangled over the edge of the bed.Her eyes focused on the white ceiling as she got lost in thoughts. She was grateful for Mika, and even more grateful that she had appeared just when she needed her the most. The only friend Mist Wood had given her had been alpha Jude and now that they were not together she felt extremely alone sometimes, but she had learned from a long time ago to not dwell on the feeling.She had had other friends at West Wood too, not much though but a few, and they had also disappeared when alpha Damon got into the picture.No one wanted to be associated with the girl who got bullied, no one wanted to be friends with someone who was humiliated almost every day at sc
Alpha Damon watched her from where he sat, she looked just as beautiful as ever, except for the little bags under her eyes.She looked tired and spent, but she still wanted to be here, having rejected his offer of a few days off work.Perhaps he was mistaken for thinking she had stopped hating him, but seeing her work even when she looked spent like that showed him just how much she wanted to be done and out of his hair.He looked away when her eyes trailed towards him, he still felt very guilty about what happened between him and princess.Speaking of which, he had not even had the balls to discuss what happened between them, he did not even know how to go about it yet.He felt bad about what he did and tried to avoid the princess as much as he could. It all just felt like he cheated on Ava, even though they weren't together.Alpha Damon held back a smile when he saw her tired face morphing into a beautiful and dazzling smile when she turned to see Mika.They held each other tightly,
Glancing at the phone, alpha Jude fumed that she still had not replied to his texts. It was almost two days since they had planned and executed, and he had hoped for positive results by now.She had not replied to his last few messages, and he could tell that for some reason she was still hoarding the pictures and had not shown them to Alpha Damon yet.Alpha Jude wondered why she would do that, they had seemed perfectly aligned, and she seemed to have wanted the same things as him earlier, so it was strange that she had not completed her part yet. He fumed inwardly at the thought that she was delaying their plan and his chances of having Ava back.The longer they spent beating about the bush, the more likely she was to tell him about the pregnancy and render his efforts useless.Taking out his phone for the umpteenth time, he texted her again, he had never called her and did not want to start so he decided to stick to texting. Going back to work, he willed his thoughts away from bot
Alpha Damon was engrossed in his work, his eyes scanning the ledger that Will had brought in a while ago, he could spot some errors and he did not like it. Whoever entered this particular ledger either had something fishy going on, or perhaps just made honest mistakes.A subtle “hi” startled him from his work and he lifted his eyes to see Princess.“Hi Princess, I did not hear you come in, how long have you been standing there.” He had honestly not heard her enter and most certainly did not see her standing there, that was why he asked.“A while, you were so focused I would rather not distract you,” she said with a smile. But you just did, alpha Damon thought, holding back an eye roll. His eyes popped out of their sock eats when she leaned over his desk, her boobs practically pouring out of her dress.They looked perfect, a little too perfect to be natural, but he brushed that aside. They still looked very attractive, and he forced his gaze was from them, swallowing loudly.His eyes
Ava could feel her heart pound violently in her chest as she rushed out, walking as fast as her legs could carry her. She had no set direction, but she knew she wanted to be as far from them as possible.The ladies' room was where her feet took her, and she heaved when she slammed the door behind her. Walking over to the mirror, she stared at her reflection.Her face still looked baffled, and shocked. How long has that been going on? What was it between them? She asked herself as she dropped the files in her hand to wash off the clammy sweat on her palm.All she wanted to do was return the goddamn files and head back home, but no, of course, having a normal day was not something she was familiar with.It hurt a little, scratch that, it hurt a lot for someone she had convinced herself and successfully believed not to care about. He did not look so into it, but she could not shake off the image of his lips touching hers. Gathering herself and heading out of the bathroom, she inhaled a
The door to his office creaked open, and Alpha Damon lifted his eyes to see princess. A sigh unconsciously left his lips.Had she not done enough? What else did she want now? perhaps there is more she had to do that she had not already done.“There are rumors flying around.” That was all she said, and Alpha Damon looked down at his computer, not wanting to speak to her just yet.“Did you beg a woman?” She asked insistent. Her face held what looked like embarrassment, and he cringed, why was she embarrassed for him, she had no right. Not in his books, at least.“ I am busy, can we have this chat some other time?” Alpha Damon asked, he was exhausted, and dealing with her was not something he wanted to do at the moment.“So she thinks we did more than just the kiss, why don’t we prove her right,” Princess said, walking over to him again.Bold of her, was all alpha Jude could think of. Sometimes, her boldness surprised him.“What do you mean?” Alpha Damon asked, moving the computer to the
Princess almost tripped on her feet as she hurried to grab her stuff. It's not every day that Alpha Damon asks them to go home with a wink, and it could only mean one thing. That they were on the same page now.She had stolen a glance at him one last time with her most seductive look as she walked out of the office. The office was empty when she returned, she headed downstairs to where they had parked earlier this morning. She tried opening the door, but it was locked, and he looked too lost in thought to even see her standing there, so she knocked softly on the window of the car, waving a little to grab his attention.He opened the car, and she stepped in, unable to hold back the smile on her face, she beamed excitedly. He looked zoned out again, and Princess wondered what it was that got him like that. “What are you thinking about, we should go.” Princess snapped at him, once again bringing him out of his train of thought. And they drove home, she could not contain her happiness
