It was Richard all this while? What is he now, a spirit? And when did he start walking without making sounds?He scared the hell out of me, I wish I could warn him not to try this with me next time, But unfortunately, he’s my alpha and I won’t dare.“I didn’t know it was you, how long have you been here?”I couldn’t even look at his face while asking him questions, can someone take me back to college, please?I feel like a teenager right whenever I’m around him, I just can’t explain having feelings for two men, at the same time.“Did I get you scared ?” he said looking right at my face but I couldn’t still face him, what should I answer him now, yes or no?Well, I had to pretend to be brave so I kindly told him. “No you didn’t, I thought it was something trying to crawl in, and the kids are downstairs, so I was concerned about them more “.Hmm, why does he smile like that? Gave me the feeling, I know you're scared kinda but didn’t want to say, of course, I’m scared, won’t you be scare

Everyone is busy with chores and the house glittering like it’s Christmas, wow coming here is always fun I can’t even deny that, just that Mark’s presence will always spoil everything. I was just taking a walk around the castle and admiring everything around it, and yes I’m pleased with what I’m seeing, decided to sit and rest a bit before dinner time, when Christy came out to join me.“Gabriella my favorite daughter inlaw” Wow that’s a good feeling knowing that someone is already seeing me as the favorite, that’s good.She’s here probably to ask me questions, lord please guide my words so I don’t end up saying things out of context, she looks friend-friendly by the way, there’s no need to get scared over anything.“Hello Christy,” I said feeling quite awkward cause I don’t feel comfortable addressing her with that, sounds disrespectful and I hope I can get used to calling her that someday without feeling some kind of way.“Good girl, I see you getting used to the name.”I seriously

-Mark’s POV-What in God’s name is keeping Veronica from getting here? Is it when everybody must have gone? She seriously needs to speed it up cause I don’t know what the delay is about.Maybe I should call her, 'cause there’s not much time, of what use will she be to me if she arrives here late and I don’t get to accomplish my plan, it’s useless you know?She’s always too busy to answer her calls, Pick your damn call bitch! I hope this girl doesn’t spoil my day really, If she wasn’t gonna come why not inform me earlier so I can get someone to do this for me?She should better not mess with my plans, cause I will make sure I kill her! And now is quite late to go for an alternative, hmmm.Lord, what am I going to do now? Wait looks like my phone is vibrating, it’s Veronica! Crazy girl she’s calling back, where was she though?“Hello Veronica, where are you please?” I said sounding so impatient over the phone, and I’m sure she can feel it from there.“If you won’t come again please tel

-Gabriella’s POV-Girlfriend? guess he was just joking or Just said so to escape Christy on ending questions,I have heard Richard mention a couple of times, how his mum can be very interrogative, and I hope this is his way of trying to escape that cause.This isn’t making any sense to me. She’s your girlfriend, how? Or could it be these two have been in a proper relationship all this while and I have been a fool all along?Okay if he had her as his girlfriend why does he keep coming back to me? And even said he would do anything to have me back, while he had his girlfriend, my very own ex-best friend.Interesting huh? It’s fine let me not overreact at this yet, I guess there’s still more to unravel in this very situation right now.-Veronica’s POV-Did Mark just get me introduced as his girlfriend in the presence Of Gabriella? Did I just hear right?The plan was to come to act as his girlfriend in his family and little did I know Gabriella would be here, so if I’m his girlfriend what

-Mark’s POV-Wondering why she wanted to see me, the plan was to stick with me and draw Gabriella’s whole attention to me, the game had not started, yet she was beating herself up this way.I hope meeting up is not to tell me how she likes me and all that, hope she doesn’t even mention that at all, she will end up hating my other side. On a serious note, what can I possibly be doing with a girl like Veronica, someone who has the heart to betray her own best friend, may God forbid I even think of having anything to do with her?If she could do that to her best friend, definitely she wouldn’t hesitate to do it in marriage, guess it’s already part of her lifestyle.Yea, so I will meet up tomorrow, cause I have even more plans, that I would love her to work with me on.-Gabriella’s POV-And truly what I just witnessed wasn’t a mere act they were dating, he introduced her to his family, and of course, it’s not a thing of today which means I have been the foolish one here all along.Wait a
