My heart kept racing, I stared at my reflection in the mirror and I was beyond shocked.... I actually thought I looked messy but hell no! I looked worn out and wasted.I ran my hand into my soft silky hair in frustration but my mind wandered to the young elder I had an eye contact with. He'd looked like a demi God.I'm quite sure he's the youngest because he looks so vibrant and still full of energy than others that are seated.************** I saw myself smiling with a lady who look somehow younger than me...... she pushed me into the dressing room to prepare for the ball night while showing me my gown..... it's looks perfect on my slender body.She styled my hair bringing the edges out, she swirled the chair around for me to see myself."Wow babe you're so good at this" I gushed beaming with smiles."I guess goodness runs in my veins," she said, cracking her knuckles together.She helped me on with my stiletto heels. It's the same design with hers though mine is a little higher tha
I kept seeing those illusions of myself and a guy I knew nothing about. I felt somehow connected to this pack but I'm very sure this is the first time I'm coming into this pack.I waved the thought aside to at least answer the person that brought me out of my trance. I opened the door ajar, not bothering to ask who it was because I know the only person who can address me by name is either the alpha,luna or Emeril."What took you so long to open the door?" Emeril asked, brushing me aside in a hurry.I ignored her question, shutting the door behind me with a loud hiss."Are you okay?" She asked me again, getting me suffocated with her numerous questions.Sometimes people need to understand that too much care might actually result in something else.I ignored her again walking to the bed…. I can't seem to get my mind off the illusion I saw a few minutes ago.I closed my eyes briefly to calm my nerves. I heard a whistling sound which made me snap my eyes open."You heading somewhere?" I ma
Emerils Pov;We moved to the sitting room where the Alpha requested to see us, but I was shocked to see Caleb, my fated mate whom I had rejected.Bits of sweat immediately poured down on me like rain.What the?? What's he doing here?.It better not be what I was thinking. I shot him a glare sneakily, but he caught me and smirked at me.Asshole!.I heaved and walked closer to them, avoiding the Alpha's gaze.What's going on here? It better not be something annoying because I absolutely don't have the strength to deal with anything right now.The maids started trooping in minutes later and I shifted to the side to allow them pass.They served the Alpha and his guest.Speaking of Alpha, he was yet to talk to me or say anything, or is he no longer the one that sent for me.I hated what I was seeing but there was nothing I could do about it . I can't even excuse myself because that would be disrespectful and if I try to come up with an excuse, I would look something up.And even if the Alp
Emerils Pov;We finished eating and walked back to the sitting room, just Caleb and the Alpha, I helped the maids clean up the table.I came back to find them chattering happily.My eyes ran into Caleb's gaze and he smiled.Memories of him started flooding my mind.He was the beta to monarch park. His mate actually was my first mate's younger sister, but due to the incident that made me rejected him, he committed suicide, making his younger sister to have sudden shock while in her pregnancy stage which leads to her dead.You could say I was indirectly responsible for it, I mean, that's what most people say.It was a ugly experience for me too, but I guess not everyone can handle rejection well, and I've been going about doing a lot of it.What if Caleb is new to make me pay in some way? What if he is here for December?.He stayed quiet and quietly accepted it. What's he doing here now?.It looks suspicious, no matter how I look at it.My first mate that had died didn't deserve to and
Emeril's Pov;I waited for the Alpha and Caleb to be done with their chattering, but it seems it won't be ending any time soon.I honestly don't know what they are talking about.Can't they save the conversation for another day? Has the Alpha suddenly forgotten that he sent for me?.I thought it was because of the meal, but guess I was wrong.It was beginning to annoy me. This is torture.I don't like being here, but I can neither excuse myself or make him shift his attention to me.I couldn't listen in on their conversation either.I heard muffles, laughs and other sounds they were making, but I couldn't concentrate on them.I just wanted him to tell me the reason I was here and let me go.For goodness sake, I have many things to do and I don't think wasting my time here is worth it, because that's obviously what I am doing.The time I spent here doing nothing could have gone into something more productive.I have things piled up to do and can't believe I was just sitting here doing
Uriah's Pov;I stood rooted to where I was, anger rushed through me immediately. It took alot from me to be able to walk from where I was standing to her.She sure has some guts. Acting all naive and coy like a saint.Goodness! She's even worse than Jessica.At least Jessica was a bit transparent, although I didn't expect it from both of themIf she thinks she's gonna get away with this then she has to think again because I'm gonna so deal with her that she would regret everything she has been thinking of doing to me and will ever do.I can't even believe what I was seeing.Holy heavens!.I stormed to the meeting room, and she was right there, in their midst.Only God knows why she's even here? Why was she summoned? Not minding their gaze, I walked up straight to her and gave her two thunderous slaps which made her lose her balance, falling hard on her butt.That serves her right!.That's just the beginning, I've not even started with her yet.By the time I am done with her, she wi
The thought of someone very dear to me betraying me is what I couldn't handle again and I don't mind treating their fuck up in the worst way they wouldn't even want to remember in their next life.I don't care who that person is. All I know is I wasn't gonna sit back and let them go away with it.They would pay and am gonna make sure of that.I'm not gonna wait for any god to do that for me, and I hope I will be satisfied when I am done with it all.It doesn't always feel right to do things like this and I've always been a very gentle and thoughtful person.To me, people's feelings should come first and foremost. I hated hurting anyone and couldn't stand the mere sight of someone being maltreated, not to talk of being hurt.Why is it that everything I hate is what's happening to me?Is this a joke or is it how my life really is?. I hate this..I really do.And I might not have the chance to change anything about the past but to certainly have the chance and opportunity to change a lot
Caleb's Pov;I was shocked to the bones when I caught the scent of Emeril in the little gathering. I never thought I would see her again. Imagined how I had felt. I was so happy and I know it sounded surreal and untrue.I might have rejected her but my heart still beats for her, and that's the truth.She's my true mate after all and there's nothing like a true bond.My wolf even danced within me when it perceived its mate. It made me somewhat excited too and I felt this tingling feeling in my stomach.It was unusual.Alot happened in the past but that was it. We are in the present now and there is still so much I can still do.I had rejected her because of how I felt about everything that was happening then, it doesn't mean I don't have some feelings left.I was just so sad and couldn't accept it. For goodness sake,I had just lost my mate and unborn child and they were asking me to mate with another person right away, the one that killed my previous mate at that.How do they think th
