Casmien's POV I paced around the room restlessly as I thought about the wedding. They can't get married. I can't watch her get married to Brian. I don't love her but I want her with me or do I? Do I love her? I've been more attracted to her these days. Now, hearing that she's getting married to Brian makes me restless. The door creaked open and Kelly walked in. "Ahh… I'm tired". She said stretching. "You should get some rest". "Yea, I will". She replied laying down on the bed. "The manor is full of workers going up and down just for their wedding. I just want her out of my sight". She said while I ignored her. "Your stepmother is a handful too. I hope to get free from her. I hate her and she does too. She wants me to be a respectful daughter in-law. She loves Ellie so much. And that bitch is just pretending. I'm sure when she gets herself back, she will show her true colors''. "I can't believe she tried to disfigure my face. She even threatened to beat me more next time. I

Casmien's POV I walked towards Helena's wing angrily thinking about why Ellie hasn't given me a reply. Fifty thousand dollars isn't too small. It can go a long way in her life with the connections I have. I scoffed angrily as I recalled what father told me. They were playing lovey Dovey on the stairs. I'm damn sure Ellie doesn't like him. Even if he does, she's my Mate. Yea, she is. "Where are you going?" I heard Helena called out as I scoffed loudly, looking at her with disdain. She annoys me. She acts as if she's my real mother and wants control over our lives. Brian is too weak and that's why she controls her but she can't control me. I would never accept her as my real mother. "I'm here for Ellie". I said as I kept going. "You can't badge into my wing and walk as if you own this place". She said as I stopped on my track. I turned to look at her as she stared at me, smirking. "You said what again?" "I said I'm here for Ellie". "When did you two become closer?". She aske

Helena's POV "I don't really like the colors of these. Change it". "Okay ma'am". "The bride doesn't want this color. She prefers some set of colors and I believe I sent it to you yesterday. I want no mistake". "We are sorry ma'am. We are going to change it immediately". "Okay then. Follow me". I said and walked out of the hall while they trailer behind me. I got outside and saw a familiar person rushing out of the library and about to enter a car. The head lawyer! "Lawyer Cole". I called out his attention as he turned to look at me. He smiled at me as I signaled at him to wait. "You can leave. And make sure you start planning on how to change that". They bowed and left while I walked towards him. "Lawyer Cole, what brings you here?" I asked, smiling at me. "Luna". He called, bowing to me. "Casmien called for me, that's why I'm here". "Oh, really. It has been a long time since you've stepped in the Manor. You never came to visit us". He laughed at my remarks "It's work

Ellie's POV "Be strong, okay". Helena said as my luggages was packed inside the car. I forced a smile at her as I gave her one last hug. "Look after Brian, please". "It's my duty, after all". She said and I chuckled at her reply. I nodded as I got into the car. We waited for a few minutes before the car ignited. Casmien wasn't with me inside the car while we drove and I became worried. "Sir?" I called the driver's attention. "Casmien? Where is he? He isn't with me here". "Yes, ma'am. Alpha Casmien is in the other car with ma'am Kelly'' I scoffed loudly as he said that as I started laughing like a mad woman. The driver looked at me through the rear view mirror. "Are you okay ma'am". "I am". I snorted as I stared at the car moving in front of us. I don't get why he married me because this is so inhumane. He married me and he is with Kelly. If he knows he isn't deserting Kelly, then why did he get married to me? Why did he shattered Brian's hope? I felt a rage of anger pass

Ellie's POV I woke up gasping for breath as I held the bed sheet tightly. My head was banging with a severe headache. I had a terrible dream. I dreamt that Brian was shot by Casmien and I did all I could to save him but it proved futile. Brian gave up the ghost. I stood up from the bed as I tried checking the time. The time read 3.00 am as I realized we were still in the midnight. I felt thirsty and my throat was so dry. I walked out of my room and headed to the kitchen. The place was silent, silent as a graveyard. No maids around. I poured out water for myself and gulped it down quickly. I saw milk in the fridge and I brought it out with cereal. I poured the cereal in the bowl and added the milk. I added two spoons of sugar. I really love using sugar. I can't drink or eat something that requires sugar if there's no sugar. I washed the bowl after I was done eating. I dropped it back to where it was and picked a bottle of water and made my way out of the kitchen. As I climbed up the
