CHLOE.Reaching the suite in world record time after I ran back to go clean up. My PMS (period mood swings) were all over the place that I had to change into James's boxer briefs and t-shirt because I loved my comfortable clothing than the clingy sexy outfits the servants packed me.I hoped he wouldn't mind that I borrowed them for two days while I waited for shark week to elapse...Fast forward to the present moment after I walked out of the bathroom. I found two chocolate bars plus a packet of crisps on the bed, I was both shocked and grateful for his sweet gesture but I would never say thank you to him. I still resented him for his actions...But classic Alpha James began demanding for a Thank you for running my errands as if I owed him the words. I scoffed inwardly as I was shocked to see him demand for a simple 'Thank you' people earned for their good deeds..I took a bit into the chocolate. The rich, creamy sweetness danced on my tongue, a small solace during the tumultuous tide
JAMES.UNBELIEVABLE!!!I clenched my jaws as I stared blankly at Chloe who sat facing me looking sexy in her red lip, and red dress that clung to her every inch curve of her body at the beach during our last dinner Dad surprised us with in our vacation package…"What did you say?" I asked frowning and she smirked, leaning both her elbows on the table and resting her beautiful face in her hands."Oh James, I know you heard me the first time. You don't have to pretend. I know you have a harem of women at the pack house," she purred seductively.A low growl escaped my lips...This was supposed to be a good night since we called a second truce after the movies but I’m so damn pissed off right now. I don't know whether to blame my wolf who had taken over my body to enjoy the rest of the vacation argument-free with Chloe or Chloe who just mentioned that I had an endless line of admirers who were waiting for me to grace their beds.I scoffed, storming out of our dinner date, ignoring Chloe'
CHLOE.My things have been moved to James's room! Oh no, no ,no… This can't be happening again. My stomach knotted with endless somersaults.Sharing a room with James again after the six days at the resort was definitely not an option I wanted to be welcomed to... I wanted my own privacy just like before!My heart began racing wildly, while my legs immediately turned to jelly as I forced a smile at James's father who had just welcomed us moments ago… I didn't know whether to be happy or angry. But I sure knew that I couldn't confront William like James tried.James and I were a couple officially and tradition demanded that we as a couple sleep in the same room like at the resort. I began dreading what else will be required of us.I forced a fake smile to hide my growing anxiety.“Oh don't mind him, I'm sure he has something important to attend to that's why he has run off like that,” William said breaking the chain of thoughts running in my mind as we both watched James's shadow disapp
JAMES.[Hours before the confrontation]“Bar man, I need a refill,” I ordered for more whiskey to be poured into my half empty glass. The bar man obliged, serving me more of the amber liquid into my cup.I sighed heavily, hanging my head low as the dim lights of the open bar casted a long shadow over the wooden countertop. This was the kind of place that felt both like a refuge and a prison all at once. I sat there, a glass of whiskey cradled in my hand, the amber liquid a mirror to the turmoil inside me.I hated that my father had moved Chloe's things into my room without my permission... It was a statement of what he wanted. He wanted GRANDPUPS from this relationship.I felt frustrated, a gnawing sense of what I had sworn off from.Suddenly, the door to the bar creaked, and the empty space began to fill up with packmates, the murmur of conversations slowly drowned out my thoughts. I felt a gentle touch poke my shoulder, I snapped around and caught a glimpse of Britney.“Britney, hi
CHLOE.Oh my goddess! What just happened? I swallowed hard while I felt heat creep up to my cheeks and in between my legs as my heart raced wildly with wild abandon.Talk about a plot twist! I definitely didn't see that coming.I darted at the door, still quivering from James’s hasty exit, moments after his lips had seared a passionate kiss upon mine. The cold concrete of the storage unit pressed against my back, a stark contrast to the heat of his lips. My mind began reeling with questions I wasn't going to get answers from...Why did James kiss me when I was demanding answers from him about his whereabouts last night?Did he kiss me to derail me from the answers I sought from him?I stood there, stunned, the echo of the door slamming shut reverberating through the silence. I couldn't make sense of what just happened a few minutes ago... One minute I'm talking and the next we are kissing.I gently touched my lips, the warmth of his kiss lingering like a brand. My eyes closed unknow
JAMES.Will the rogue king ever stop tormenting me? I mulled deeply while I drove to the warrior who had mind linked to me that a letter from the Rogue king was delivered a few minutes ago while Chloe and I shared a heated moment of passion in the storage room at the pack house.I admit that my thoughts were that if I kissed Chloe when she was accusing me for having a harem for the second time again, I would prove to her that everything she heard about me where all just rumors spread by packmates who disliked me...But that was the exact opposite of what happened.Kissing Chloe's soft lips just confirmed what I feared the most. I was developing feelings for her and I didn't think I would be able to resist her nor resent her.'Well, it about damn time your cold heart felt something rather than resentment... I told you, she is our mate and we should love her openly than guarded,' My wolf merrily chirped in via mindlink.I scoffed and told him to shut up. This was no time to play any blam
JAMES.I gave a slight shake of my head, feeling the weight of deception heavy in my chest. "Chloe isn't lost; I'm aware of her location," I confessed, knowing full well the place of her confinement yet unable to draw my father into the fray. My resolve was to inform him only once I had ensured her safe return."Well, then tell me, I might be of help." he said impatiently, clearly upset about Chloe's absence.I sighed heavily with pursed lips, “Father, it's nothing you need to worry about. Please, trust me I will bring her home."I implored with a quiet intensity.The Beta I had sent to pack the blue lilies returned with a huge fully packed duffle bag and handed it to me,”Alpha, those were all the blue lilies in the storage unit. Will they be enough?” he asked respectively.“This will have to do,”I grabbed the bag in haste. Without waiting for my father's response, I turned around and ran back to the abandoned building. I heard my father call out to my name," James, should I send back
CHLOE.It's been hours since I was kidnapped by the rogues and I still didn't know what was going on or why I was taken, but once I saw James's handsome face with those rogues walk into my holding cell. I instantly knew my knight in shining armor was here to save me and take me back home.But then the Rogue leader who seemed to have a personal vendetta against James interrupted our short lived reunion and introduced a sick twisted game he wanted to play with James.I knew my life was doomed!!! Karma was still taking it's sweet revenge on me for what I did to Jess...“Beat him till he's dead. If he lifts even a finger, kill his bitch. Her death will weaken him for you to finish him easily off easily,” The rogue leader instructed his goons before he walked away.My heart thudded.Oh shit! I beat myself mentally for marrying James because now his enemies were out to get me for something I had no clue whatsoever of...The gang of rogues immediately ganged up on James and began to beat him
