HeleneShe came back. The strange lady who visited me the other day when I wasn't feeling too well suddenly showed up again, and I didn't know how to feel about her visit. I wasn't exactly the most accommodating person because I don't like people all that much and I find it very difficult to trust them, so I wasn't too sure if I should act friendly with her or just be dismissive with her so that she can find her way back to wherever she came from, just in case she was here to just mess with me and act shitty around me. "I'm going to assume from the look on your face that you're not very happy to see me here, and even though I understand that you can't exactly be excited to see me since you don't know me, I find it weird that you're frowning right now," she pointed out as soon as she saw me, and I had to give it to her for being observant at the very least.I wasn't going to sit here and pretend to be somebody that I'm not just because she claimed to be the third in command the last
Helene "I'm genuinely grateful that you were kind enough to want to speak to me and try to check in on me, which is something that not many people have tried doing here, but I'm not interested in having a therapy session because, believe it or not, I'm not doing as badly as you think I am," I said to little Miss Third in common as politely as I could. I can't say for sure that I trusted her or understood that she was trying to help me, but since she was trying to make it seem like she was helping me or that she wanted to help me, I needed to be polite to her and also let her know that I wasn't doing badly and I didn't need therapy.I'm not going to blame my aggressive nature or the fact that I had trust issues on what has happened to me here because I've always been like this, and for me to talk about something like that with her would mean that I needed to talk about my family as a whole, and that is not something that I'm willing to do while I'm here. My aggressiveness has always
BrendaAfter thinking about it for a while, I finally made up my mind to visit Hunter's quarters and have a serious conversation with him concerning our relationship. I realized that I allowed myself to be very emotional and irrational ever since his mate arrived, and thinking about it now, I feel like I needed to rectify things that have gone wrong between us because having issues with him constantly and picking fights with him is only going to give him the possible chance of connecting with his mate, and I didn't want that to happen.I also spoke to my mother and Keisha about it, and they both advised me to stop picking fights with him and give him the leverage to find himself gravitating towards that girl. I knew what I wanted, and I needed to be strategic about my actions so that I didn't end up losing him and, most importantly, losing the position that I had wanted for years. I was also hoping that I wouldn't arrive there and meet his mate just yet because I wanted to meet her
Brenda"You keep trying so hard to fight for that girl even when you know that your relationship with her is a forbidden one. I mean, how can you be so comfortable with the same woman who is probably going to be your worst mistake during her reign as Alpha?" Dario asked, and I mentally rolled my eyes from where I was. I was still very engrossed in eavesdropping and their conversation because it didn't seem like it was going to end anytime soon, as Hunter still had to constantly defend himself and also defend his relationship with me. I have already had a lot of people say quite a lot of nasty things to my face over the last few years, but I've never really witnessed Hunter getting judged for being in a relationship with me, even though I knew that people were talking about him and there were a lot of theories concerning why he was with me. There was a time that I heard that he was only with me because he pitied me after my entire family abandoned me, and when I heard that particula
Brenda I had to wait for about ten more minutes before Hunter arrived back in his office and I immediately smiled at him as soon as he walked in."Hi babe," I greeted him as warmly as I could so that he would realize that I wasn't here to pick a fight with him."Brenda, what are you doing here?" he asked with a surprised look on his face."Mason told me that you were having a meeting, so I decided to wait here until you arrived, and it's because I felt like the last few days have been rough for both of us, and I didn't like the fact that we kept arguing and arguing over the most unnecessary things," I said to him, watching the look on his face closely. "Is everything okay with you, babe? You look very stressed out right now, and I don't like the look on your face," I pointed out, and he sighed. He doesn't say anything and simply walks closer to me and hugs me tightly. I put my hands around him and hugged him back, hoping that my hug was going to be comforting enough for him. I'm
Hunter "So you finally spoke to her about Helene and the bet she proposed? And how did she react?" Damon asked.Myself, Damon, and our mutual friend, Omar, were currently at a bar, having random conversations. Damon and Omar proposed that we go out earlier today because it's been a long time since we last went out together. I agreed to go out for a drink with them because I had a lot on my mind, and I felt like I needed to drink with my guys and also talk about everything that was going through my head with them. I discussed the entire situation with Helene and Brenda, and I also explained to them that I finally spoke to Brenda about Helene and even mentioned the bet that Helene proposed to me. "She was trying to act like she wasn't upset, but I could tell very clearly that she didn't like me talking about the situation with Helene, and she became even more upset after I mentioned the bet to her," I replied.They both didn't look very surprised to hear this, and I wasn't expectin
Helene "I cannot believe this rubbish is actually going to happen. What in the world is the Alpha thinking?" Mia hissed for the thousandth time. She hasn't stopped complaining about the fact that the Alpha agreed to let me fight for my opportunity to stay here, and I was sick and tired of hearing her try to criticize my choice and change my mind."He's doing exactly what I requested of him to do, so there's no need to fault him for accepting my offer, and there's also no need for you to keep talking about this because it's already a done deal and I will fight," I told her strictly, and she scoffed. "The problem isn't just that you are going to have to fight; it's also the fact that you have less than 48 hours to prepare yourself against three opponents that I can assure you are not easy to defeat. What gives you so much confidence and makes you think that you can beat them?" She asked, and I sighed. "I already said this earlier, but for your satisfaction, I am going to repeat myse
Brenda"You told me to remain patient, Mom, and I have tried my very best to keep calm, but I can't take this anymore! I can no longer deal with this, and I'm this close to losing my cool!" I vented over the phone in frustration, pouring out my anger at Mom since she was the only person I could talk to. "Stay calm and talk to me, Brenda. What's going on?" She asked in her usual calm tone, which was honestly starting to irritate me. I can't understand how she's able to keep calm in a situation like this, knowing very well that we're both screwed should anything go wrong with our plan. "You told me not to do anything about that bitch that showed up, mom. You told me to watch and observe her for the time being, and now I'm on the verge of losing control over Hunter because of how patient I've been. That stupid brat is trying to sneak up on me and take what's mine, and I won't allow it. I will not allow that no-good, disgusting nobody to take my man away from me," I blurted out. I tho
