And that was how it all happened, right in my face. Like a dream, like an illusion that I thought was all playing in my head. It was so shocking that I couldn't talk; no sound could come out of my lips as I watched their faces, their eyes glinting with pure hatred and venom that showed how much they wanted me dead.No single one of them would ever spare me if they had the powers and abilities to defeat me. The only person who still trusted me was Dracula, my mate. Even Scarlett, who I was with when the death of my father occurred, still leered at me like a murderer. She won't say it out loud due to fear, but I could see how she looked at me differently now.Randy and Selene, whom I thought I had made my closest friends and who should stand by me and defend me against the accusations of my own people, hurried off to their pack with claims that they had serious issues to attend to.I was left all alone, standing in front of everyone like a different breed, an alien who no one could reco
"So are you all finally realizing how rash and spiteful your actions on the next Alpha had been?" Dracula scoffed, his face still contorted in anger and irritation. I could tell clearly how much he must have hated everyone gathered there. He wasn't a werewolf like us, and after seeing what my pack members are acting like, I am sure he would be highly disappointed in them all."I think we are all wrong this time and have allowed hatred to blind us from the glaring truth." The burly man spoke loudly, and it seemed like they were all waiting for him before they all spoke out."Yes, we are wrong. Forgive us." They all echoed and sang together, kneeling down in forgiveness. Everyone went down on their knees, but as I gazed around the crowd, I saw one man standing upright, his face cold, and his eyes glinting with pure hatred."Hey, you are still proving stubborn?" Dracula seethed at him, and his lips curled into a smirk."Laura was right all this time!" He shouted, breaking the silence and
Ava Brown knew going to her husband's office was something she wasn't supposed to do and it might even make him hate her more but she wanted to. She wanted to see how big and wide his office was that he loved spending all his days there. She wanted to see how busy he always was that he never waited to eat at home all because he wanted to go work. " Don't be so surprised. Let's go. " Ava said as she winked at Lewis and turned to walk out of the kitchen. " But, Madam, boss won't like it. He might..." Lewis tried to convince Ava but she only smiled gently before walking out of the kitchen. Lewis knew a lot about Ava Brown's and Harvey Dankworth's loveless marriage and most times, he had even tried to comfort Ava whenever Harvey acted too cold to her. The two entered Ava's car and Lewis drove her down to Harvey's company but that was only after he tried his best to convince her and later realized she had made up her mind. Driving down to the office, Ava had a lot on her
" Where are you going without taking breakfast?" Ava Brown asked her husband who was coming out of his room all dressed and ready to leave for his office. She rushed over to him and stood in front of him " Wait! What do you want people to think of me? We've been married for a month but there is still no changes in you at all. Do you want people to call me a useless wife who can't even take care of her husband? Is that what you want?" Ava Brown wasn't always this harsh. In fact, she hated to nag her husband but this was getting too much for her. She would cook every morning but her husband would leave without even tasting her food, not minding the stress she had to go through to make the meals! Harvey Dankworth, who already had his mind filled with the meeting he was going to attend this morning made a displeased face as he watched his wife nag at him like he was her baby. " What's all these? When did this start between us?" He asked coldly as he did his tie well. "
Ava Brown tried to take a step back but Harvey grabbed her waist and pulled her closer to him. His chin rested on her shoulder as he put his mouth beside her left ear and whispered " Let me show you how I punish you cruelly." Ava whimpered. She struggled to free herself but nothing was working and she could only watch on helplessly with apologetic eyes. " I'm... I'm..." She wanted to apologize to him maybe he would let her go but she couldn't bring herself to say it. She pressed her hand against his chest and faced away from him but he only chuckled before placing his finger on her chin and he forced her to look at him " You don't have to look so irritated, I hate this too and that's why I will be telling you this. Don't infuriate me anymore or you will really regret it big time!" He warned and pushed her away from him! Ava staggered backward but was able to balanced herself. She looked at him with shock in her eyes as she never expected him to be so crazy. How could
Ava watched the two men eat to their satisfaction and it was like she was the one eating with the way she was staring at her husband dotingly. It was like her dream had come to pass as her smile was so bright that it couldn't be described with words. Her heart kept beating faster and faster and her happiness knew no bound " He finally eat the food I prepared with my hands for the very first time! This is the 10th time that I've been cooking for him and he ate it today? He even looked like he was enjoying it~" she mumbled inwardly as she covered her face with her hand and laughed. She wished she could laugh out loud but it would make the two men question her. " I'm done. " Harvey said as he stood up and walked out from his seat while Mr. Damon also stood up but that was only after he returned the plates back to the lunchbox. Ava nodded her head and carried the lunch box in front of Mr. Damon before walking over to her husband " Wow! That's nice. " She mumbled as she
The young man was extremely shocked when he heard what Ava said. He sized Ava up again and his eyes immediately changed from that of curiosity to respect! He immediately bowed his head and revealed an awkward but apologetic smile. " I'm sorry, Ma. I ... I made a mistake because I heard Mr. Damon married a very pretty lady too. I'm so sorry, please forgive me. " He begged and Ava sneered. Mr. Damon was an handsome man who truly deserved to marry a pretty lady but Ava still felt annoyed that someone could think of her as his wife. Why did he not mention Harvey first? Did he feel like she wasn't worthy of being his wife and the only person he could mention was Mr. Damon? No matter how Ava thought about it, she still felt annoyed and she found it hard to easily forgive the man! She raised her head high and emitted the aura of a lady lord as she walked passed the man. " Take me to the meeting room 4." She told the man and without saying a word, he immediately led the w
Harvey must have been planning on how to scold Ava after the meeting but his eyes immediately lit up the moment he saw the file she was holding. He immediately walked toward her and collected the file from her " Ah! Thank you!" He mumbled as he checked the file and realized it was the exact one he needed. The men in the room who were wondering who she was all looked at her with light in their eyes when they realized she was Harvey's wife. They all greeted her and asked her some polite questions which she replied to. She was about to step out when one of the men sitting closer to Harvey stood up~ " As I said earlier, Olive company are ready to overtake us. If we are not careful, we might lose to them soon and we will be completely dragged down. They are coming up big and it's already affecting us " The man explained and Ava's legs froze! She immediately turned her head to look at the man and later dropped her attention to Harvey who was looking on with frustration ev
