The Alpha's Temptation 30
"Are you married?" Bruce asked again, with much more courage in his tone after remembering that there is nothing suspicious or wrong with his question.Tessa opened her mouth to say a word, then shut them back as though she was scared. A second later, she laid out the bomb."No, I am divorced." Tessa was really shocked at his question, from her research, she knew that the asked question could be asked in most cases, but it was not a popular question and she did not expect it.She tried her best to maintain a normal confused gaze. Since she stepped into the interviewing room, she had forced herself to give a straight face as though she did not know Bruce, although he knew him. She knew all of Chris friends and villains because of the way Chris would always tell her of his plans to eradicate and bless them, and he had liked to talk about the bed deeds of Bryce and how he would slay him and his pack one day.Bryce was now sure that. She was indeed Chris's husband and it was her look ali

After Tessa was in the room with Chris, just as expected he lashed out on her."Why did you leave the room?" Chris asked in a calm tone, lowering his head after he had transformed back to his human form.Tessa felt like she was shaking and he would read her fear, but he was not supposed to be scared, she was the Luna."Why did you leave the room when the Alpha ordered you to stay in it." Chris yelled, finally lifting his head and staring at her, Tessa could see the visible bruise that appeared on the side of his face, it would heal eventually, but the pain from it still ached her heart.It was the first time Chris had referred to himself as the Alpha when being with Tessa, she should have known that he would continue referring to himself as that, long after that event had ended."I could not feel your pain and leave you suffer alone by the way the gathering was meant for peace and not to be a starting point for war." Tessa took her Stan."I hope you saw the evil nature in that man c

Candice walked into Bryce office, after the two interviewers had ended their meeting with him.‘’So!’’ Candice placed her hand on Bryce desk casually.‘’How was your interview with the no experience candidate?’’ She asked.Candice gave a sarcastic chuckle, which was not intended to be loud but eventually came out as so.Bryce lifted his head from his desktop where he was reviewing the replied of the candidates, and glared at Candice.‘’Her interview was 0kay’’ He replied in an indifferent tone and got back to his key pad.‘’I really prayed for it to be a success. Do you know that when I was coming to your office, I spotted her by the corridor, she had that sober look on her face.’’ Candice laughed. She knew that she was overstepping her boundaries, but she equally hated the girl from first sight and gossiping her would be her only revenge mode.‘Okay’’ Bryce repeated the first reply.‘’ can’t you see how low quality she is for our business, do you want her to ruin it for us. I am sure

"Who are you?" He yelled into the shadows, just when the person was about to come into the light.“I am the one you love the most, I am your greatest nightmare, I am your weakness, I am your strength”.“Speak not in parables and get straight to the point, I am not afraid...”“Ahha!”Bryce screamed at the stinging pain of a came that just landed on his back.“Speak...” He was interrupted by another stinging pain.He tried his best to hold in the scream. He was sure that the cane could not be a normal one, it had to have spikes of silver branches He felt weaker with each stroke.“Do not talk when I talk the female voice said calmly, as though she could not feel the pain from Bryce's screams.“You thought you could end me. I will be back”.The pain on his back, covered up for every previous pain he could ever felt in his life. If it was a normal cane, he probably would not have screamed that much, but the silver strings just had to be his weakness even as an Alpha.He tried moving from t

Tessa held onto her knee, feeling a hot liquid seeping into her fingers and rolling into her palm. It has been a long time since she last felt such physical pain.As a normal wolf, Tessa expected that the pain she felt from hitting the edge of the bed would be long gone after a short period, but it only seemed to get worse.She limped from the floor and into the bathroom, where she sprinkled some droplet of water on her now bloody wound.She wondered what could be wrong with her body, maybe, just maybe, she was experiencing some pregnancy stuff, but then, she could vividly recall when her friend was pregnant and she had mistakenly fallen from a staircase, it did not take up to a minute for her to get from the floor and behave like nothing ever happened. The pain was long gone. Why the hell was her case different?‘’Ahha!’’ Tessa could no longer hold in the pain.she had heard cases of pregnant ladies finding it hard to heal, but really, she could not experience such, she was a wolf.W

‘’Just get out’’ She managed to raise her voice slightly while avoiding his gaze.‘’Nurse!’’ Tessa tried screaming, surprisingly, just as though the nurse was waiting for her yell, a female busty lady in a white gown walked swiftly into the room.‘’Who is this man’’ She managed the stretch out her fingers.‘’Please do not stress yourself too much, the baby…’‘’I am asking who this guy is, and why is he here, get him out’’ Tessa yelled in a low-sounding tone.‘’Sir, but I thought you knew her, he is your friend and neighbor’’ the nurse turned towards Chris, who all the while, was leaning on the wall with his face in his palm.‘’Yes, I am her neighbor.’’‘’Please can you kindly leave the room, we do not want anything that will stress our patient’’ The nurse kindly requested.‘’Maybe, she just cannot recall who you are’’ the nurse whispered in his ear when they were both at the door, hoping that Tessa would not be able to hear them, but who were they kidding, she could still hear their f

The journey back to her house seemed like the longest she had ever experienced, but she still could not compare it to how long her journey was while relocating.Tessa sat in the back seat of the tinted Toyota car. The fact that it was tinted got her thinking wildly.Why would he even have a tinted car if he was not sent by Chris?No, anybody could have a tinted car, but she felt like he had something up his sleeves.“I love Adele's music, I hope you do,” Chris said in more of a statement after he had played a song on the diskette.Tessa loved Adele, she loved her song, and he just had to play the one that she loved most, but at the moment, she hated Adele.She hated her for being loved by Chris, the unusually nice stranger.“How far am I from my house?” Tessa asked. She did not want to ask, but hearing Chris sing along to her favorite song got her pissed off.She wanted to sing along, and give the hand movement, just like she always did when she was with her ex-husband, but she could

“Ma, I am on my way to the office” Tessa cut through her statement.“Who told you are still needed in the company, you big bag of worthlessness!” Candice scolded.Tessa felt the strong urge to stretch her hands through her phone screen and slap Candice.She had never in her life felt insulted before. She compared her life in her pack as a Luna, and imagined what would have been done to Candice or anyone who could ever dare to insult her.Torture, would have become her second name.“I am on my way.” Tessa replied. It was all she could think of as a reply.Tessa took a deep breath, stared at the digits on her table, and was nearly tempted to pick it up and call Chris.“No” Tessa yelled at her self, and summoned up the courage to stand up from the couch.She held onto the wall to avoid from falling down and strolled to her room.Her room was surprisingly still in it’s messy state, the state it had been when she was jumping on her bed after receiving the acceptance mail.Tessa pulled out
