Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 748744957207904 📚📚Title "Found by the Lycan King"🥰👉 &quot;I, Beta Simon Berman, reject you filthy Omega as my mate. How dare you seduce Alpha&#039;s son, your stepbrother!&quot; My mate sneered disgustedly, as if he was not one of those who framed me.<br /> &quot;You are too dirty and worthless. As Alpha said, you will not only be rejected by me, but also will be exiled as a low roug--&quot;<br /> However, suddenly, the door cracked open.<br /> &quot;Luna! You are here!&quot; Looking at the man who broke in and half kneeled in front of me, everyone was stunned. &quot;Sorry to disturb. Hope you still remember me, Luna. I&#039;m Beta of the Lycan King Callahan. King is wondering when you&#039;d like to come back home.&quot;❤️⚡<br /> -------------------------------------------------------------<br /> Chapter 1<br /> Being an alpha’s daughter is not all that it&#039;s cracked up to be. Ask me, I know that better than anyone else.<br /> I, Zenovia Archer, was the daughter of Alpha Drake Archer of the nightfall pack. Though I don&#039;t think that there&#039;s anything special about kids of Alpha and Beta, and there&#039;s no reason to treat them specially, the truth was that what I received was even worse than being a guilty omega.<br /> All this is because, my mother left this world long ago.<br /> And, she&#039;s not my father&#039;s mate, even if she&#039;s his first wife.<br /> My father, Alpha Drake, had been in search of his mate for a long time after his first mate rejected him cruelly. My mother used to love him and she was his chosen mate but when he found his fated mate, he left my mother without a second thought.<br /> Because that gave him the chance to have a legitimate heir.<br /> My life turned upside down the day my father brought in his current wife and our pack’s Luna, Celeste.<br /> The house we lived that time was built by my grandparents, I never met them but according to my mom, they were glad that their daughter finally had a home. However, my mother and I were thrown out of our home and sent to the packhouse to live with the others. Technically, my father had never given her the official title of a luna so in merely one night, she became a mistress to him and me, an illegitimate child.<br /> My mother tried in vain to talk to my father, to beg him to at least return to her for the sake of his daughter, me, but it was as if he suddenly realized I was beneath him.<br /> My mother died of heartbreak, leaving me alone and an orphan in my own home. Luna Celeste and my stepbrother, Sid, left no stone unturned to harass me.<br /> My father blamed me for my mother’s death though he should be the culprit, and everybody simply adored the new Luna because she was the fated one, the one moon goddess had sent to my dad after years of waiting.<br /> All of my pack members believed that fated mates were far superior to chosen mates. So, naturally, my life went downhill from the day Luna Celeste set foot in our home…in my home. I will never forget the day she stole my home--she smiled at my so-called father, &quot;Though it used to be a filthy woman&#039;s house, don&#039;t you think it will be a symbol of our happy life?&quot; She chuckled.<br /> My only hope is to go to college next year and leave this pack forever.<br /> “Zenovia, where are you dumb!!” Luna Celeste called out to me from the alpha’s residence, a lavish bungalow nestled in the woods, a bit far from the hubbub of the packhouse.<br /> I was not allowed to enter the residence, which used to be my home, unless it was for doing chores or if Luna Celeste needed something.<br /> I had accepted this life long ago. I knew that the life of an unwanted child was no sunshine and rainbows but the life of a rogue was even worse.<br /> Rogues were hunted by the werewolves and would always end up as slaves or dead at the hands of alphas.<br /> Compared to that, I was relatively safe.<br /> “Y-yes Luna Celeste,” I dashed through the small room that was initially the broom cupboard that I called my home now. And I did not live alone, mice and cockroaches gave me company on lonely nights.<br /> It was quite early in the morning and I had fallen asleep late while gazing out at the stars, talking to them as my mother believed we turned to stars after we left the mortal world.<br /> I found solace in talking to her while stargazing.<br /> “What time is it?” Luna Celeste grabbed my throat angrily and I felt hard to breathe, “It is s-six am, Luna Celeste.”<br /> “And where are my running shoes and the refreshments? How many times have I asked you to keep everything ready before I go on a jog?”<br /> I nodded my head and rushed inside the large gym on the ground floor where Luna, Alpha, and my stepbrother, Sid trained sometimes. Luna Celeste had convinced my father that Sid was a kid of hers and her fated mate who died long back so Sid became the rightful heir to the alpha title of our pack.<br /> And everybody believed her.<br /> Sid was opening the door from the inside when I dashed in and the door hit him in the nose.<br /> I placed my hand on my mouth and apologized profusely, “I am so sorry, Sid. I did not see you.”<br /> I spoke but he only glared at me angrily. “You did that purposely, didn’t you?”<br /> I tried to walk away from him but he blocked my way and stood smirking at me. I nervously looked at the ticking clock on the wall and tried to speak, “Lu-Luna Celeste is waiting for me, please let me get her stuff.”<br /> But Sid only looked at me coldly and held my wrist before pulling me close.<br /> “They say a bas//ta//rd child is as good as an omega. And do you know what is the best quality of an omega?”<br /> He held me close and looked at me with a wicked smile on his face.<br /> “B-but you are…we are siblings…” I tried to protest as he snaked his hand above my back and tried to push it down my jeans.<br /> “Stepsiblings.” He corrected me and added.<br /> “Come on, you are hot and I know you play hard to get but try to find ways to bump into me,” He added, undoing the buttons of my jeans.<br /> “Stay away from me!”<br /> I felt horrified and I pushed him away. He stumbled backward and fell on one of the gym equipment before I hurriedly got Luna Celeste’s stuff and ran out of the gym.<br /> “You are going to pay for this bit//ch,” He growled as he held a hand to his forehead. A small bump was rising on it but I did not stay around him long enough to hear more of his threats.<br /> I had gotten used to his bullying and cheap acts by now. Wiping away the tears that leaked from my eyes, I dashed toward Luna Celeste who was glaring at me.<br /> “I...I am sorry for making you wait, Luna Celeste. I tripped and fell,” I lied to her. There was no other choice. I could not tell her that her son was a total creep.<br /> She would not believe me and instead, I would be subjected to more punishment.<br /> “You have gotten lazy as you do nothing but sleep and eat like a pig all day,” She angrily took the shoes from me and put them on.<br /> When I stood meekly with my head down, she added, “I am going to have a talk with Alpha Drake about cutting your expenses. There is no need to fund your college tuition fees anymore.”<br /> My eyes widened for an instant.<br /> “No! Please don’t!” I couldn&#039;t help but raise my voice, though a quivered, heartbroken tone.<br /> I fell to her feet and begged for mercy. However, the only thing she gave me was a smug smile as I desperately pleaded with her not to do it. Though I had to slog and work like a full-time maid here, being a daughter of the alpha, even if I was almost an omega, allowed me some perks.<br /> I was not enrolled in prestigious colleges where all of the alpha kids went to study but my school was decent. Of course, my being an illegitimate child was a closely guarded secret of our pack. My father’s reputation would be tainted if word ever got out that he had a child for my mother was not his fated mate.<br /> School allowed me to stay away from most of my pack as nobody went to that school. In fact, most of the kids who studied there were poor kids who had nowhere else to go but wanted to study.<br /> Though the kids in my pack laughed at me for studying in the cheapest school, I was happy that I was allowed to study and could make friends there who did not know anything about my life back home. As most of the kids were kids of omegas or orphans, it was easy to lie about my lineage.<br /> I wore full sleeves to hide the scars and wounds I would get from the beating and would show up in school with a happy face.<br /> That was the only good thing in my life and I did not want that to be taken away from me.<br /> “Please Luna Celeste, I will do everything you ask. I will also never show my face again to you if you want.”<br /> I pleaded as tears spilled out of my eyes freely. I hated being so weak, so vulnerable but I had no choice. There was nowhere for me to go.<br /> My words only made Luna Celeste look at me with contempt. Her gaze hardened as she muttered,<br /> “That is the best thing you’ve spoken in a long time.&quot;<br /> &quot;You are chosen, Zenovia.”<br /> <br /> Chapter 2<br /> Zenovia<br /> I looked at Luna Celeste in confusion, wondering what she meant by that.<br /> But she only smirked and replied, “In two days, we might have some important guests come over. Ensure that everything is sparkling clean and that nothing is out of place or you know the consequences.”<br /> She warned me before setting off to jog. I let out a sigh of relief when she left and I took deep breaths to calm my heart.<br /> I had dodged the bullet by not letting her think of cutting off my college fees. As long as I was allowed that, I was okay to work and clean the packhouse for eternity.<br /> Now that she was gone, I decided to head back to my room and quickly change and run to my school before Sid or his gang of friends found me to bully.<br /> Thus, I quickly showered in the ice-cold water dribbling from the shower and changed into my clean jeans and a loose T-shirt. I only had one hoodie so I wore it anyways.<br /> Picking up my backpack, I stepped out of the territory before anyone else spotted me. That was the perk of being an early bird.<br /> I did not mind the walk to the school as it allowed me to clear my head. The narrow path was filled with a lot of trees and I had gotten into the habit of admiring the beauty of nature as I went to school.<br /> However, that morning, something strange took place.<br /> The moment I reached the school gate, I found a slew of cars parked outside.<br /> There were also a lot of men, all wearing black and having huge and massive body frames. They stood in attention outside the gates as they looked around, alert for the slightest noise.<br /> I wondered what was going on. Our school was in the most isolated place and we never had any bigshots pay us a visit.<br /> So, it attracted quite a bit of attention from all the students and even staff, all of whom were clamoring to get a good look at something. I took one step closer too, but next second --<br /> I heard somebody yelling angrily and amidst the crowd I saw my friend, Cole, rising in the air. A big muscular hand was gripping him tightly by the neck and Cole was flailing his hands and legs in the air wildly, trying to get out of the vice-like grip.<br /> My eyes went wide as I ran towards the crowd and tried pushing through the onlookers. I didn&#039;t know what happened, but Cole was one of my good friends and I could not bear to see him hurt.<br /> When I managed to get in the front I saw a huge man holding him by the throat. The man was literally made of nothing but muscles and had a stone-cold look on his face.<br /> “If you dare raise your voice again in front of the Lycan King I will kill you.”<br /> I ran up to the man and yelled at him, “Leave Cole alone!!”<br /> He ignored me as Cole tried to speak, “I…I was not talking to the King, Beta Matt.”<br /> But that did not satisfy Beta or Bas//tard or something else Matt who squeezed Cole’s neck harder. I could see his veins popping out and I panicked.<br /> I simply took my backpack and swung it blindly, connecting it with Matt’s abdomen.<br /> “Leave him!”<br /> Matt obviously did not budge but he was surprised by my act. I saw him turn to look back and my gaze followed his eyes and noticed that he was looking at the dean&#039;s office.<br /> The windows were closed and the blinds were partially drawn but I saw a pair of eyes looking at the scene through the slit in the blinds. Even from afar, I could see that they were golden, the color of fire.<br /> Those eyes, however, were not looking at Matt but at me. They were fierce and held a predatory gaze which made me involuntarily take a step back.<br /> Some silent communication, maybe through a mind link seemed to pass between Matt and that mysterious guy inside the dean’s office.<br /> He dropped Cole and looked at the crowd with furrowed eyebrows and everybody just ran away, leaving me and Cole on the ground.<br /> Matt and the other men left too as I helped Cole get up.<br /> “Are you okay?”<br /> I asked Cole as he massaged his neck. He ignored my question and I looked around to find his glasses.<br /> They were lying on the ground with his backpack so I picked all his stuff up. When I straightened my back, I saw those golden eyes looking at me again.<br /> I felt an uneasy sensation gnawing at me but ignored it and went back to Cole while handing over his glasses.<br /> “Girl, are you insane? You just hit Beta Mateo of the-”<br /> I cut him off, “ I don’t care if he was the beta of some stupid pack. He was hurting you and nobody messes with my friend.”<br /> He took his backpack from me as I muttered, “Too many people treat us like sh//it already. We don’t need more.”<br /> “Huh? What do you mean? Did something happen at home?” He asked but I shook my head, “Don’t bother. Let us get you to the school medic.”<br /> Cole placed his hands on my shoulders and replied, “I am okay Zen. Don&#039;t get yourself involved in this mess anymore. Beta Matt just got confused. It was a misunderstanding, that’s it.”<br /> I glanceded doubtly at him and then looked back at the retreating figure of the Beta who entered the dean’s office while the rest of them stood in attention outside. Just why did every alpha, and beta treat the less privileged like dirt?<br /> The golden eyes were still on us, I could feel them on my back. They were observing us as I threw Cole’s hands over my shoulder and helped him get to the medic.<br /> I found the stare to be unnerving, not in a creepy sort of way but I imagined that face to be cold and calculative as he looked at a small girl helping her skinny friend get up from the ground.<br /> “Who are these people and why are they here anyway?” I asked Cole as we left the school ground and entered the building.<br /> “Not sure, many people say many things. Some say that the Lycan King came here to donate some money to the school, others said some Alpha is looking for able students to work as his guards. I also heard some say the Lycan king came looking for his mate.”<br /> I furrowed my eyebrows.<br /> “What would make the Lycan King come to our school of all places? They would go to the top institutes for that.”<br /> I muttered and Cole only shrugged his shoulders. I helped him get to the medic who examined him and my gaze flitted to the window again.<br /> The eyes were still on me and I tried not to give in to the unease that settled in my heart as we walked into the medic’s office, cutting off my eye contact with the golden-eyed guy.<br /> Little did I know he had come looking for one person specifically…me.<br /> <br /> Chapter 3<br /> Callahan<br /> (Earlier the same day)<br /> I stood looking outside the glass window of my large mansion, my hands perched on the windowsill.<br /> “What do you see?” I asked the girl standing behind me. She was wearing an elegant white dress and her long flowy hair was tied in a loose bun.<br /> “It does not work like that, my King,” she said again.<br /> “Make it work,” I replied and I heard the defeated sigh that left her lips.<br /> She slowly walked in my direction, looking out the window to stand beside me.<br /> “How much time do I have?” I asked and she replied, “I am not sure, a few weeks, maybe just two days.”<br /> A mirthless chuckle left my lips, “To think that the Lycan King is at the mercy of fate and a seer who is not of much help.”<br /> Drusilla pursed her lips. I could hear the pain in her voice as she replied, “I cannot help you if you won’t help yourself, my king. We all have our fates prewritten. Yours asks you to finally walk the path you have been avoiding.”<br /> “Fate…destiny…your divine Moon Goddess…do you even believe in being in charge of your own life?”<br /> I clenched my hands into fists and took a deep breath to control my anger. Drusilla was not the cause of my pain or misery and there was no use lashing at her.<br /> “Fine, I will go take a look. But I won’t promise anything.”<br /> A relieved smile appeared on Drusilla’s face as she bowed her head, “Very well, my king. I hope you do not ignore the signs.”<br /> I shook my head and walked out of the mansion. Half an hour later, I was in a car with my beta traveling to prominent packs under our rule. Drusilla was seated beside me.<br /> “What is it that we are looking for exactly, my King?” Mateo, my beta, asked me as he drove the car.<br /> I let out a frustrated sigh.<br /> “An anchor.”<br /> Mateo’s hands almost slipped from the steering wheel and the car swiveled a bit before he regained his control of the car.<br /> “Matt, I don’t want to get killed, meaninglessly.”<br /> “Sorry, my King. But what made you finally change your mind?”<br /> I looked outside the car window as we traveled through a less-traveled path. I did not want everybody to just clamor around us so I asked him to drive through the fairly secluded roads.<br /> I wanted to use that time to think and clear my head. As much as I hated Drusilla’s words, I knew she was right.<br /> She had proved herself time and again. I had to trust her if I did not want everything to turn to dust. Even if it meant doing the things I despised and loathed.<br /> And while we were traveling through the roads I felt an uneasy sensation crawl up my spine. It made me restless and I suddenly felt claustrophobic despite the AC being on full blast and the air being chilly around us.<br /> I felt as if my heart was being squeezed, almost immediately driving me yelled,<br /> “Stop the car!”<br /> “Here? Why what happened?” Matt asked but I ignored him and threw the car door open.<br /> I almost fell down from the car as I stumbled outside and leaned against the stone wall, gasping for breath.<br /> Drusilla and Matt came running after me as I took in deep breaths to calm my nerves.<br /> What was happening to me? I had never felt such a thing before.<br /> “We are outside a school, perhaps resting a bit should do fine. We have been traveling for five hours.”<br /> I raised my hand, “No, I should be fine,” as I got up. But Matt and Drusilla insisted that we should take a break.<br /> Thus, Matt stationed everybody outside the gate and a few manned us as I and Drusilla went to the dean’s office.<br /> The dean almost toppled his chair when he saw me. He immediately bent his head low and greeted me.<br /> “K-King Callahan, to what do I owe the pleasure of having your company? Had you given an advanced intimation, we would have arranged a welcome party.”<br /> I waved off my hand as Drusilla pulled a chair for me to sit.<br /> “We were just traveling and the king thought of taking a break. We would leave in some time.”<br /> The dean immediately called some people to tend to us but I ignored him. Drusilla could look at them and keep them off me.<br /> Not wanting to hear their rambling, I walked near the window and saw Matt holding some lanky kid by the throat.<br /> I shook my head. Matt had always been a hothead and was fiercely loyal to me. So I believed that the kid must have done or said something against me.<br /> Not that I cared. Everybody knew I was cursed so calling me a cursed king was not actually a far cry from the truth. I was cursed to not have a mate on that fateful night which still haunted me to this day.<br /> I had almost turned around but then I saw a girl come out of the crowd and yell angrily at Matt. She had a strange aura, one I could not quite decipher.<br /> She was wearing ordinary clothes and was too skinny and two heads shorter than Matt. But, she put her hands on her hips and glared at him, asking him to put her friend down.<br /> It was amusing to see her try to stand against the Beta of the Lycan King. Not many would do that. While Matt ignored her, she took her backpack and swung it straight at Matt.<br /> “Ouch, caution, that must have hurt,” I spoke to my beta through the mind link, teasing him a little.<br /> He turned to look in my direction and I could feel him roll his eyes, “I should just put this kid and the little girl six feet under the ground.”<br /> I snorted as my eyes traveled to her. She was a feisty little one but I could not see her properly.<br /> Her hood covered most of her face. But when she saw that Matt was relentless, she bent down and picked up her backpack again.<br /> It was then that I saw her face.<br /> And the moment I saw her there was this odd pain in my chest again, the same feeling of unease I had felt earlier. But it was not just pain that I felt upon seeing her.<br /> There was some relief and an odd sense of familiarity.<br /> What was wrong? I could not understand. I was seeing this girl for the first time yet why did I feel the intense need to keep her close?<br /> But before Matt would cause any further scene, I ordered, “Let the kid go and come here.”<br /> Matt reluctantly let go of the kid who fell down. The girl scampered to gather his belongings and our eyes met again.<br /> The unease returned with a fierce intensity that made me gasp again. Every nerve in my body told me to grab her and never let go of her, to hold her in my embrace, to kiss her sweet lips, and to-<br /> I staggered back and Drusilla came rushing to me, her voice filled with concern.<br /> “Are you alright?”<br /> But my eyes were still on the girl as she walked away with her friend. She looked back in my direction once again and my lycan growled in my head, not happy that she was walking away.<br /> Weird. What was going on?<br /> <br /> Chapter 4<br /> Zenovia<br /> For some reason, the dean announced that the lessons were over early and we were all sent to our homes.<br /> I groaned, not wanting to return to the packhouse so soon. It was still 5 hours before school lessons ended and I did not want to show up early and be thrown more work or get bullied.<br /> But there was no choice.<br /> I let out a sigh and gloomily bid Cole goodbye for the day as we all left for our respective homes. The trees and flowers did not cheer me up as I dreaded going back early and finding Sid waiting for me with his gang to punish me for my mistake.<br /> I sneaked up in my cabin through the side, making my way through the bushes instead of walking in through the main entrance.<br /> The wooden floor usually creaked a bit as the cabin was never covered under maintenance, so mostly I had to beg someone to fix anything broken or try to somehow get it fixed myself.<br /> I did not want anybody to know I had arrived home early and wanted to just snuggle up in my bed and catch some sleep.<br /> With that in mind, I tiptoed around the bushes, carefully not to step on any wooden planks when I heard my name.<br /> I froze in my tracks, fearing somebody had seen me and would now be dragged to wash clothes or do the dishes but it was my so-called family talking about me.<br /> They were unaware of my presence so I decided to lay low and eavesdrop on their conversation. The voice came from my father’s office which was just near the gym.<br /> I strained my ears wondering what made them talk about me. So, I went on my knees and literally crawled through the shrubs to reach the backside of the office.<br /> I could not see the entire office because the wall and the shrubs blocked half of my view.<br /> “This cannot be happening. We are not ready,” I heard Luna Celeste’s voice.<br /> My father looked worried as he replied, “I know, he was going to show up after two days but I just got the news that he is on the way to our territory.”<br /> The voice of my stepbrother reached me, “What does he want from us?”<br /> “I have no idea, son. I wish I knew so that I could have offered him something. Having him on our side is crucial to our pack.”<br /> “The rogues are getting pretty loud and violent. They attacked a few neighboring packs last week.”<br /> “Maybe it is that he wants to come here and see how things are going? We are one of the strongest packs in this area so naturally, he would want to have a word with you.”<br /> Sid tried to bootlick my father who gave him a warm smile…something that he had stopped giving me.<br /> No matter how hard I worked or did anything for him, I was always ignored and given the cold shoulder.<br /> “I’ve heard that the Lycan King is getting restless about the rogue attacks and he has decided to set foot in our territory after ages, he wants to take a look at things up close…or so I heard.”<br /> Luna Celeste grew worried and she neared my father, giving his hand a gentle squeeze.<br /> “We need to pacify him before he subjects us to his ire. We already have the threat of the rogues looming over us.”<br /> My father held her hand and kissed her knuckles, making her blush. I could only try to not gag at the show of affection.<br /> Sid walked up to my father and said, “How about we give him some gift or tribute? That will bring us in his good books.”<br /> My father got up from the chair and turned in the direction of the window. I ducked as he walked near the window but thankfully the bushes hid me.<br /> “But he is the Lycan King, he already has money, fame, servants everything. What can we possibly give him?”<br /> I peered through the leaves and I saw a knowing look pass between my half-brother and stepmother.<br /> My heart began beating wildly as I had seen that look too many times. It always meant something bad.<br /> “The Lycan King must has a keen eye for beauty. And Zenovia can pass off as beautiful if we dress her appropriately.”<br /> My heart dropped to my stomach. I knew Sid disliked me but did not know that he hated me so much.<br /> Before my father could reply, Luna Celeste hurriedly added, “What a brilliant idea, son! You are going to make a great alpha, one day.”<br /> The way she smiled and replied...they must have agreed ahead of time.<br /> She then walked up to my father and spoke, “Sid is right. Zenoviah is good for nothing and brings nothing but shame to the pack. Get rid of her. That way your secret is safe.”<br /> I almost did not want to hear what my father would say but I still held on to a small ray of hope in my heart that maybe my father would not agree to it…that maybe he did not hate me that much. Luna Celest was not my true mother, but he was...right?<br /> But the words that left his mouth left me speechless.<br /> “Not bad idea, but she is worthless, Celeste. The Lycan King will not be pleased with the offer.”<br /> Tears stung in the back of my eyes. I dreaded what else my father would say and wanted to run away from this place.<br /> All my hopes of him having a change of heart had been crushed already.<br /> “Come on, Drake. She is beautiful, I have seen young men look at her. We throw her at the Lycan King’s feet and he walks away from here without asking too many questions. That way we get rid of her, your secret is safe and we also have a good standing in his eyes.”<br /> “Are you sure that this will work, Celeste? I don’t want him to look too deeply into our administrative decisions or finances. We already owe him a lot.”<br /> Celeste batted her eyelashes and took my father’s face in her hand. She kissed him and I again tried not to puke as she continued,<br /> “I want the best for our pack…for you. Think of this as a deal, darling. The Lycan King comes to us and we offer him a beautiful slave for free. Would he not be pleased to be offered an alpha’s daughter? Nobody knows she is a ba//sta//rd. You could just say your first fated mate died and then you found me. So he will be more than happy to receive her as an offering.”<br /> Celeste continued to convince my father and those words felt like hot iron was being poured into my ears. She was talking about me as if I was some lifeless object to offer to a beast.<br /> The Lycan King was known to be fierce, ruthless, and very cunning. And that he was cursed to not have a mate. I did not want to be stuck with someone who did not love me but would just use me for his needs.<br /> I had been living with her for so many years. How could she not have even an ounce of sympathy for me?<br /> Had she already not gotten her revenge after my mom’s death and throwing me out of my own house?<br /> While I tried to calm my raging heart, she pressed on. “Can you think of a better solution, Drake?”<br /> Before my father could say a word, Sid chimed in.<br /> “I thought I should keep this hidden but I don’t think I can hide it anymore. Zenovia…she…she has been trying hard to get into my pants.”<br /> “What?” My father turned to look at him with an aghast face. I pretty much had the same reaction and I could not believe my ears.<br /> Celeste ran towards Sid and held him close as he continued,<br /> “Just today morning when mom asked her to get her shoes, Zenovia purposely ran into me and kissed me forcibly. When I pushed her away saying that I think of her as a sister, she said that we are step-siblings so there is nothing wrong. When I still said no, she hurled a dumbbell at me.”<br /> Celeste looked at him with horrified eyes and caressed his forehead, “Oh my God, I cannot believe this, Sid. Why didn’t you tell us this before?”<br /> Sid hung his head low, “I…I did not want Father to think I was painting her in a bad light. I wanted to give her another chance but every time she finds me alone…she pushes herself upon me and says that she would tell everybody how I r//ped her if I don&#039;t agree.”<br /> ...What? My lips couldn&#039;t help but quiver.

Frankly, I normally see these numbers in women ten or fifteen years your senior.”<br /> “What?” I murmur, not believing my ears. I’ve been trying to get pregnant for years. I’m only 30, I should have plenty of eggs left.<br /> “In terms of fertility, you have very little time left.” She continues. “If you want to conceive, you need to do so before your next cycle begins.”<br /> “My next cycle?” I repeat, my mouth hanging open in shock. I love kids more than anything, and though it might not be everyone’s ambition, I want nothing more than to be a mother.<br /> I have to get home and tell my boyfriend this news, and there’s not a moment to waste.<br /> I make it home in record time, bursting through the door and opening my mouth to call for Mike, but stopping dead in my tracks. As soon as I walk inside I see a pair of high heels and a handbag by the door – neither of which belong to me.<br /> I cock my ears towards the bedroom, and my stomach churns when I hear the unmistakable sound of moaning, accompanied by a steady thump thump thump, as the bed collides with the wall. Worse even than realizing that Mike is clearly in there with another woman, is realizing who he’s with. I know that handbag, and I know those shoes – they belong to my best friend, Kate. <br /> “Fuck, Ella is so stupid.” Mike laughs, “can you believe she actually expects me to have a baby with her?”<br /> Kate snorts, “she’s delusional. I don’t know how you put up with her for so long in the first place.”<br /> “If she wasn’t so beautiful I never would have given her the time of day.” Mike scoffs. “Thankfully daily doses of plan B kept her from ever conceiving.”<br /> “The morning after pill?” Kate asks, “how did you manage to give it to her without her realizing?”<br /> “I put it in her morning coffee.” Mike chortles, sounding far too proud of himself. <br /> My vision goes completely red as everything finally falls into place. Suddenly it’s clear why I’ve never been able to get pregnant, despite having unprotected sex multiple times a week for years. It’s even clear how I could have the eggs of a 45-year-old, if my despicable partner has been secretly feeding me emergency contraceptives every day – there’s no telling what other damage that might have done to my reproductive system. <br /> Before I can think better of it, I pull the smoke alarm on the wall, wanting to frighten and punish the pair in the bedroom so fiercely that I fear I might attack them when they emerge. Water immediately sprays down from the sprinkler system mounted to the ceiling as a shrill siren fills the air, and I hear Mike and Kate cry out in surprise. <br /> A few moments later they come rushing out of the bedroom, stopping in their tracks when they see me looming in the doorway. Mike’s eyes go comically wide, “What are you doing home so early?” The snake has the nerve to sound affronted that I surprised him, when he’s the one who’s been sneaking around behind my back for God knows how long. He seems to realize how suspicious it looks that he and Kate are standing there in their underwear and quickly adds, “Kate came to see me so we could plan a surprise for your birthday, but then we spilled coffee all over our clothes so we had to change.”<br /> Fire blazes in my veins, he must truly believe I’m an idiot if he expects me to buy such a feeble excuse. <br /> It’s a testament to their horrifically low opinion of me that they buy my act, and I vow to get my revenge one way or another. I can’t believe I wasted so many years – my best years – on this scumbag. And now he may have cost me my future too. As soon as the thought enters my head, I know I can’t afford to waste another moment on Mike, I have more important things to take care of. <br /> I make my excuses and rush across town for the second time that afternoon, running to the comforting arms of my surrogate sister, Cora. Not only did we grow up together in the orphanage, but she became an OBGYN and now works for the most exclusive sperm bank in the city. I’ve never gone to her before because I always imagined Mike and I would eventually conceive the natural way, but that clearly isn’t an option anymore. <br /> Even if I could find a man willing to have a baby with me in time, I’m not eager to trust anyone after Mike’s betrayal. I’m going to have to do this on my own, and I know Cora can help me. I don’t have much money, but I have enough savings to pay for the insemination, especially since I basically have one shot and one shot only. <br /> When I arrive, all my plans to lay out my situation for Cora clearly and concisely go out the window, because the moment I see my sister I fall to pieces. She hugs and kisses me until my tears subside, slowly extracting the story from me piece by piece. When she hears about Mike and Kate she swears up a storm, but that’s nothing compared to her reaction when I explain about my fertility. <br /> “That little shit! I’ll kill him!” She fumes, studying me with a worried expression. “Ella, if your doctor was right this means you only have one chance to conceive.”<br /> “I know.” I sniffle. “And if this is going to be my only baby, I don’t want to take any chances. I want the best donor we can find.”<br /> “Don’t you worry about that.” Cora assures me, “We’ve got donations from actors, models, scientists – it’s only the creme de la creme here.” She glances at the door and lowers her voice. “You didn’t hear it from me, but even Dominic Sinclair sent his samples here for testing.”<br /> “Dominic Sinclair? I repeat, “the billionaire?” I’ve seen the man around town, but we don’t exactly run in the same circles. He lives in the same neighborhood as my wealthy employer and often says hello to the children I nanny, but he’s always surrounded by bodyguards and is so intimidating I get goosebumps just thinking about him. <br /> “Oh my god!.” Cora slaps her hand over her mouth. “I wasn’t supposed to tell you that! I don’t know what I was thinking. Apparently he’s no stranger to fertility issues himself, and he trusted us to handle his swimmers over every other lab in the country. I’ve got his sperm in the other room at this very moment.” She frets, “But Ella you can’t tell anyone, you have to promise me.”<br /> “Of course!” I agree immediately. “I know how important confidentiality is here.”<br /> “Thank you,” Cora breathes. “Now, I’m going to give you a dossier of our clients so you can pick a donor, and once you’ve chosen we’ll get you knocked up before you can even blink.” <br /> It’s not an easy decision, but eventually I choose a handsome surgeon whose photo practically makes me swoon. Cora leaves the room only long enough to prepare the sample, and though she looks a bit flustered when she returns, she quickly and professionally completes the insemination, holding my hand when the procedure is finished. “It’s all take care of now, Ella.” She promises, “You can come back in ten days to see if it worked.”<br /> Ten days. I think dazedly. Ten days to decide my entire future.<br /> If only I’d known that by the time those ten days were up, my future would no longer belong to me – but to Dominic Sinclair himself. <br /> <br /> Chapter 2 - Be Fired<br /> Ella<br /> Six days to go. I think, staring at the date circled on my calendar. Six days until I find out if my dreams are finally going to come true… or if I have to figure out an entirely different plan for my life. <br /> I’ve thought about nothing else since Cora inseminated me last week, I’m so anxious to find out if I’m pregnant I haven’t even begun to process Mike’s betrayal. <br /> I’m trying to keep a level head, yet I can’t help but imagine my future with this new baby. Try as I might, I catch myself daydreaming about it constantly. I even find myself humming as I get ready for work in the morning. <br /> When I arrive at my employer’s estate in the most exclusive neighborhood in Moon Valley – which basically makes it the most exclusive neighborhood in the world, since Moon Valley is one of the most expensive cities on the planet – I’m immediately greeted by two little voices shouting my name in excitement. “Ella!”<br /> The next thing I know, 3-year-old Millie is hugging my legs while her older brother, Jake, wraps his arms around my middle. “Good morning love puddles!” I exclaim, returning their hugs. “Are you ready for the museum?”<br /> “Yeah!” They cheer, racing out the door without even stopping to put on coats. It takes a bit of wrangling to get them back inside and bundled up for the cold winter day, but before long we set out into the snow.<br /> Jake races ahead of Millie and I, impatient to get to the science museum and not seeming to notice that his sister’s tiny legs simply don’t move that fast. Chuckling, I lift Millie into my arms and settle her on my hip. “Goodness, you’re getting too big for this, munchkin.”<br /> “Nuh-uh,” Millie grins, “You’re justs too little.” <br /> She might have a point. At five foot one, I don’t exactly have the kind of build suited to heavy lifting. I’m in great shape, but I’ve never been particularly strong. “Smarty pants.” I tease, laughing with the little girl. <br /> When I look back towards Jake, I realize he’s stopped a few feet ahead of us. My heart skips a beat when I realize why. We’re in front of the Sinclair mansion, and its owner is currently standing in the middle of the sidewalk, his gaze searing me like a firebrand as I approach with Millie. Dominic Sinclair is just about the most handsome man I’ve ever seen, but he’s also one of the most terrifying. <br /> With dark hair and piercing green eyes, chiseled features and a body so muscular I could swoon, it doesn’t seem fair he gets to look so good and also be so rich. If I didn’t know better I might think it was his wealth or imposing height that makes him so intimidating, after all he’s at least six foot four, which means he towers over me and everyone else around him. However it’s neither of those things, there’s simply an indefinable quality about the man that I can’t put my finger on, one which screams danger. He gives off this energy that’s so raw and animalistic one forgets there’s anyone else in the room. <br /> Taking a steadying breath, I close the distance between us so Millie can say hello. When she greets him, Dominic drags his attention from me and offers her a smile so genuine that it tugs at my heartstrings. As I watch him talk to my two young charges, I remember what Cora told me about his infertility struggles. He clearly loves children, and I feel a wave of empathy for him. If anyone knows what it’s like to yearn for a family of their own, it’s me. <br /> Jake is currently showing Dominic his new toy airplane, pulling the matchbox model from his pocket and demonstrating how far it can fly. With a great heave, he sends the toy gliding through the air, only to land in the middle of the street. Before any of us can say a word, Jake races after it, right into the busy road.<br /> “Jake no, be careful!” I cry, watching him dart out into the path of an oncoming car but feeling frozen by my fear. Before I can contemplate putting Millie down to go after him, a blur of movement whirrs past my vision. I’ve never seen anyone move so fast in my life. Dominic became little more than a hazy outline of himself, chasing after Jake and pulling him out of the way just before the car slams into them. The vehicle’s tires are still screeching when Dominic sets Jake down beside me, his expression suddenly very stern. <br /> “That was very dangerous.” He scolds gently. “You should never go into the street without looking both ways first.”<br /> Jake hangs his head. “I’m sorry, I didn’t want my plane to get runned over.” <br /> “You are a million times more important than a toy.” Dominic tells him firmly, “and you scared your nanny half to death.”<br /> “I’m sorry, Ella.” Jake sniffles, looking up at me with wide eyes. <br /> “I know sweetheart, just don’t ever do that again.” I breathe, cuddling him against my side. “Thank you so much.” I say to Dominic, feeling more grateful than I can express. “I have no idea how you moved so fast! It was like something out of a superhero film.”<br /> “Must have been the adrenaline.” Dominic shrugs, giving Millie another smile before taking his leave. “Enjoy the rest of your day, and stay out of the road young man!”<br /> “Yes sir!” Jake calls after him, pocketing his airplane. “I really am sorry.” He adds to me. <br /> “It’s forgotten.” I tell him softly, though I take his hand so that he can’t run off again. <br /> “It all happened so fast.” I tell Cora later that night. “I mean the more I think about it, the more amazing it seems. One moment he was there, and the next he was gone. It was like magic.”<br /> “Thank goodness Jake is alright.” She replies, but rather than looking relieved, her face is twisted into a deep grimace.<br /> Studying my sister’s expression, I realize her grim demeanor is not just about Jake’s near miss. Something else is wrong, and I actually feel guilty for not noticing sooner. “Is everything okay?”<br /> Cora frowns, “Not really. But you’ve got so much going on right now, it’s not important.”<br /> “Cora, don’t be ridiculous.” I admonish. “What’s going on?”<br /> “Well, speaking of Dominic Sinclair,” She begins cryptically, “you know that sperm he sent to us for testing?”<br /> “Yeah,” I confirm, wondering where on earth this was going. <br /> “It’s gone missing… and I’m the last person who saw it, not to mention it was in my custody.” She explains, her voice becoming thick with emotion. “Ella, I think… I think I’m going to be fired. And if there’s an investigation I could lose my medical license.”<br /> “What?” I exclaim. “What do you mean it’s missing? A vial of sperm can’t just get up and walk away.”<br /> “I know, I think someone had to steal it, but there’s no way of knowing who’s responsible. And it looks like I’m going to have to take the blame.” She shares, her eyes shining with tears. <br /> “Cora, I can’t believe you didn’t tell me this sooner!” I lament, “They can’t fire you, it isn’t fair.”<br /> “You don’t understand, Dominic is one of our biggest donors.” Cora explains. “And he’s furious, he basically wants my head on a platter.”<br /> A week ago I might have believed there was no hope for Cora, but seeing how kind and understanding Dominic was with the kids today makes me wonder if he could really be so heartless. Surely if he understood that Cora would never be so irresponsible he’d show some leniency? I have to try and help her, I would do anything for my sister – even begging a ruthless billionaire for mercy.<br /> <br /> Chapter 3 - Request<br /> Ella<br /> Three days to go.<br /> I repeat these words to myself as I walk down the street, still preoccupied with my possible pregnancy, even as I prepare to go to bat for my sister. In some ways it&#039;s a coping mechanism: I’m about to beg Dominic Sinclair to save Cora’s job, and I need a comforting thought to help me get through this. <br /> His bodyguards see me first, and I can see their mouths moving as they watch me move closer, no doubt notifying him of my presence. Approaching nervously behind Dominic, I wonder for the hundredth time if this is a mistake. Who am I to ask a favor from one of the most powerful men on the planet? Shaking myself, I tell the little voice in the back of my mind to shut up – this is for Cora. I might not be brave for myself, but I can be brave for her. <br /> “Mr. Sinclair?” I ask hesitantly, feeling my heart pound violently against my ribcage. <br /> He turns around and gazes imperiously down at me. “Yes?”<br /> “I’m Ella Reina, I nanny for Jake and Millie Graves.” I begin, gnawing on my lower lip. <br /> His dark eyes catch on my mouth, and suddenly I feel like a frightened rabbit in front of a hungry wolf. “I know who you are, Ella.” The sound of my name on his lips sends a shiver down my spine. He speaks the familiar syllables with so much purpose, as if they truly mean something to him.<br /> “Oh… well, I don’t mean to be impertinent, but I’m friends with Dr Cora Daniels…”As soon as I say her name, his expression closes off, and some unidentified emotion flashes in his eyes. <br /> “She told me she’s in trouble at work, and I know you’re one of the bank’s donors.” I improvise. “I don’t know what Cora is being accused of, but I’m sure she’s innocent. She takes her job incredibly seriously, and she would never do anything to risk her career.”<br /> “And what do you expect me to do about it?” Dominic asks ominously. I can tell he doesn’t believe my weak story, his body language has changed completely, and I can feel his rising anger vibrating in the air around us. <br /> “I just thought… I hoped that if you had any sway there, you might be able to put in a good word for her.” I finish, feeling color flood my cheeks. I’m both ashamed of myself for such a feeble attempt, but unsure how else to handle such a delicate topic. The last thing I want is to get Cora in even more trouble than before. <br /> Dominic’s jaw ticks as he watches me, and the voice in the back of my head urges me to run for it. “From what I’ve heard, your friend made a very serious mistake, and the consequences have been more than appropriate. The best thing she can do now is take responsibility for her mistakes, not sending you to do her dirty work for her.”<br /> “I – she didn’t, she doesn’t even know I’m here! I swear.” I plead. <br /> “I’ve said all I’m going to say on this matter.” Dominic declares, turning away from me and striding into his house. The door slams shut behind him, and I’m left with his various bodyguards. <br /> “You need to leave now, miss.” One of the men announces sharply. <br /> “I can’t.” I moan, “he has to understand, she’s going to lose everything!” <br /> “We’re not going to ask you again.” A second guard growls, a clear threat in his words. <br /> “Please, she’s innocent.” I beg, “you have to –” before I can say anything more, the men grab me by the arms and begin trying to lead me off the property. Feeling truly desperate, I dig in my heels, deciding that my dignity is worth Cora’s entire future. “I’m begging you, if I could just talk to Mr. Sinclair.” <br /> “You’ve already talked to him.” The first guard grumbles, “and frankly you’re lucky he was as generous to you as he was. Your friend clearly told you things she shouldn’t.”<br /> The next thing I know, they’ve thrown me off the property and onto the sidewalk so forcefully that I lose my balance, tumbling to the ground as tears spark in my eyes. The iron gates slam shut behind me, and I have no choice but to slink off before I can embarrass myself further. <br /> Of course, this was only the beginning of my misfortune. When I arrived at work the next day, I found that my keys no longer fit the locks on the front door. I knocked, overwhelmed with confusion, and a few minutes later the door swung open to reveal Jake and Millie’s furious mother. <br /> “My keys aren’t working.” I tell her, wondering why she’s glaring at me so fiercely.<br /> “They’re not meant to.” She answers coldly, “as of yesterday afternoon, your services were no longer required.”<br /> “I… you’re firing me?” I squeak, not believing my ears. “Why?”<br /> “We got a call from the neighbors.” She explains haughtily, “apparently you let Jake run into the road the other day where he was almost hit by a car! And then yesterday you were seen making a fool of yourself at Dominic Sinclair’s home – they said his bodyguards had to drag you off the grounds like a common criminal.”<br /> “That isn’t fair, that isn’t what happened!” I plead. “Jake through his toy into the road and ran after it, I didn’t let it happen, and what happened with Mr. Sinclair was a misunderstanding.”<br /> “I don’t want to hear it.” She hisses. “Now leave before I call the police.”<br /> “Please, can’t I at least say goodbye to the kids?” I request, praying she’ll grant me this one kindness.<br /> “I’m dialing.” She tells me simply, pulling her cell phone from her pocket. <br /> “No!” I raise my palms in supplication, “It’s okay, I’ll go.”<br /> For the second time this week, I find myself shamefully retreating through this opulent neighborhood with tears streaming down my face. What hurts even worse than losing my job is the fact I didn&#039;t get to explain the situation to Jake and Millie, or see them one last time. I’m sure their mother will tell them horrible things about me, despite the fact that I’ve been lovingly raising for them for the last two years.<br /> I know Dominic Sinclair is responsible for this. I don’t believe my ex-boss’s story about the neighbors for one moment. He clearly wanted to punish me, just like he’s having Cora punished. A rush of fury takes hold of me, and suddenly I wish I could punish him somehow. It’s not like me to be so vindictive, but right now it truly feels like my entire life is falling apart, and it’s partly his fault. <br /> I spent all my money on the insemination, and without a job I have almost nothing. How am I ever going to afford to have a baby now? I guarantee I’m not going to get a good reference from Jake and Millie’s mother. <br /> As if things weren’t already bad enough, when I return home I find a stack of bills in the mailbox and I don’t even recognize half the senders. I open them one by one, feeling my confusion and disbelief grow by the minute.<br /> As I look at the stores on the breakdown of charges, my suspicion grows: they’re all Mike’s favorite places. Is it possible he did this behind my back? That he’s been hiding the bills from me for months… or years? I know he’ll deny it if I confront him, which leaves me only one option. <br /> I have to call Kate. My former best friend might have betrayed me completely with her affair, but if anyone knows what Mike has been up to, it’s her. <br /> <br /> Chapter 4 - Desperation<br /> Ella<br /> My hands are shaking as I dial Kate’s number. Have I ever been this angry? If I have I certainly can’t remember it now.<br /> “Hello?” Kate answers almost immediately, using a sickly sweet tone that screams of fakeness. <br /> “Kate?” I state bluntly. “Are you with Mike right now?”<br /> There’s a pregnant pause on the other end of the line, before she weakly responds, “What? Of course not.” <br /> “Come off it Kate, do you really think I don&#039;t know about your shit?” I demand. “I’m not a complete idiot.”<br /> “Ella listen–” She begins, obviously gearing up to give me some sort of excuse. <br /> “No, I don’t even care about your little affair anymore – but I need to talk to him right now.” I declare fiercely. <br /> There’s another pause, and then Kate’s voice drops its innocent tone. “You don’t care?” She repeats, sounding truly shocked. “ You know I’m already pregnant?” <br /> I wasn’t prepared for that particular piece of news. I clench my hands into fists, feeling so furious I think I might actually break the phone with my tight grip, “And what, you think that’s some sort of victory?” I bite. <br /> “Does he know you’re pregnant?” I ask sharply, “because a man who’s so afraid of responsibility that he’d poison me for years is probably willing to do it to anyone.”<br /> “Well no, but he loves me, he would never –” She tried to explain. <br /> “He loved me too once.” I cut her off. “At least he said he did. It’s amazing how charming he can be, considering what a bastard he truly is. How do you think he’s going to support you and your child? He doesn’t even have a job.”<br /> “Of course he does!” She objects, “He just didn’t tell you about it because he didn’t want you to bleed him dry. He’s a stock broker.”<br /> “Oh Kate,” I sigh, “Poor, gullible, stupid Kate. He’s as much a stock broker as I am a wizard.”<br /> “Don’t talk to me like that! He’s got money, he lavishes it on me all the time!” She insists.<br /> “With fraudulent credit cards he took out in my name!” I shout, losing my temper completely.<br /> “What?” She squeaks. <br /> “That’s right. I’ve only just found out – he’s completely bankrupted me. I’m calling the police and if I were you, I’d check your own credit rating immediately, because I’d be willing to be you’re next.” I snap.<br /> “No,” she repeats weakly, “you’re wrong, it’s different with me.”<br /> My voice is getting thick with emotion now, but I can’t help it. “And frankly I don’t really care what happens to you Kate, but if you’re really pregnant then your baby deserves better than to be raised in a homeless shelter, and that’s exactly where Mike will land you.”<br /> I hang up before I start crying, not giving her a chance to respond. Why did I buy his lies about looking for work for so long? He crushed me little by little, all the while pretending to be so nice, and I let it happen. <br /> Never again. I decide. I won’t ever let myself be fooled that way again. <br /> I still want to get my revenge on Mike, but first I’ve got to try and salvage what’s left of my life. I have to go to the police and see if I can resolve these financial issues… I can’t have a baby if I’m bankrupt, and I can only pray the police will help. <br /> ________________________<br /> “I’m very sorry Miss. Reina, but if your ex-partner has left the area, there’s not much we can do about this.” The police officer breaks this news to me about as gently as he might smash an ant beneath his boot. “I’ll give you the police report to send to the credit card company, but that’s the most help you’re going to get from us.”<br /> Anger fills me to the brim. I guarantee he’d never treat my case with so little consideration or respect if I wasn’t an impoverished nanny. If I was a wealthy man like Dominic Sinclair, he’d be fawning at my feet, offering to go to any lengths to solve my problems. I storm out of the station before I can lose my temper and verbally assault the man, immediately calling the credit card companies. <br /> One by one they crush my hopes, telling me in no uncertain terms that unless a culprit is arrested in my case, I’ll be held responsible for the charges. <br /> As I hang up on the final call, I can feel the earth crumbling beneath my feet. How did it come to this? I literally have nothing. No one will hire me without a recommendation from my previous employer, which means I won’t be able to pay rent or keep food on the table. Normally I might turn to Cora in such a time, but I can’t burden her with this when she’s in the same boat. <br /> Tomorrow I’ll finally find out whether or not I’m pregnant, and up until now the strange sensation I’ve been experiencing the last few days has been a comfort and source of hope. I don’t know how to explain it: it’s as if I’m suddenly different somehow – even though I can’t see any changes, I just have this intense knowing that I’m no longer the same woman I was a week ago. <br /> I thought it was a sign the insemination worked, but now I’m praying that it’s my imagination going overboard. <br /> At first I try to distract myself, turning on the TV and freezing when I see Dominic Sinclair on the news talking about all his good will initiatives in the community. “When our work is finished, the Moon Valley children’s home will be a place of love and community, motivated to find the best homes for every child in need. Our initiative not only ensures that the permanent residents in the home have the best possible conditions, but that there is continuous follow up with children placed with adoptive families to ensure they thrive in their new homes.”<br /> So much for the supposed philanthropist, I think bitterly. Turning a blind eye to the lives he’s selfishly ruining all the while pretending to be a friend of the downtrodden. A week ago I might have been touched by such a broadcast. I grew up in an orphanage just like the one he’s describing, and I know just how terrible the conditions can be. Now however, I see nothing but his hypocrisy. Cora was an orphan too, she didn’t do anything wrong – where is his compassion for her? Clearly it’s only for the TV cameras. It’s a shame. He’s very convincing… then again, so was Mike. <br /> Of course Mike was never as handsome as Dominic Sinclair, nor did he ever have his charisma or imposing presence. I don’t know if I’ve ever met anyone like him. Even while he was refusing to help me, scolding me and having me thrown out the door, part of me was still taken in by his handsome features and pure magnetism. <br /> Shaking myself, I turn the TV off. What the hell is wrong with me? The man is a heartless billionaire and I’m still sitting here mooning over him like a silly schoolgirl. <br /> I end up going to bed early, trying not to think about tomorrow. Of course, I still lie awake late into the night – I know what it means to grow up an orphan, and I can’t countenance bringing a child into the world just to abandon it to that bleak existence. The more my life unravels, the more stark my options become. <br /> If I am pregnant… Am I going to abort the child? Even though it’s what I’ve wanted my entire life!<br /> <br /> Chapter 5 - Pregnancy test<br /> Ella<br /> “No, I understand.” I murmur into the phone. “Thanks for listening at least.”<br /> I wearily hang up the line, burying my head in my hands. I spent all morning calling in every favor and loan I possibly could, throwing my dignity right out the window to beg my friends and acquaintances in my time of need. <br /> I’ve never thought of myself as a proud woman, but begging this way was more of a challenge than I could have imagined. <br /> I only wish I could help Cora as well as myself. She’s still waiting to hear if she’ll be fired, and while she’s not supposed to be handling any samples, she got permission to do my tests this afternoon. After all, I’ve already been inseminated, so her supervisor didn’t see any risk of further negligence.<br /> Still, I’m far from excited when I walk through the front doors of the sperm bank. Ten days ago I was heartsore but optimistic for the future, yearning for a baby more than anything else in the world. Now I’m dreading the exam. <br /> However my trepidation soon gives way to surprise, because as soon as I enter the facility I have the strangest feeling that Dominic Sinclair is near. It takes me a while to actually find him, behind closed doors with Cora’s bosses in a luxurious, glass-walled conference room, but I don’t have the faintest idea how I knew he was present. I also don’t understand why I feel drawn to him: after all, he’s ruined both my sister’s and my own life. I shouldn’t be excited to see him. <br /> It was dumb luck that I stumbled across his path, the conference room is on the way to Cora’s office, but I find myself stopping to observe the meeting inside. I’m struck speechless when I lay eyes on him. Is it possible that he’s gotten more attractive since the last time I saw him? It was already unfair that somebody that powerful and intelligent could be so handsome, but now it truly just feels like being kicked while I’m down. The bastard has a heart of stone, and still the universe has rained endless gifts upon him while people like Cora and I have nothing. <br /> Shaking myself out of my trance, I continue down the hall, though I feel the weight of dark eyes on my back as I retreat. Cora has clearly been crying when I arrive. Her eyes are red and her cheeks splotchy, though she tries to hide it. <br /> “Hey.” I greet her gently, wrapping her up in a hug. She leans into me, squeezing tight and lingering far longer than she usually would. “Is there any news?”<br /> “Sinclair is in there finalizing it all now. I’m going to be given formal termination notice this afternoon.” She shares, sniffling slightly. <br /> “I’m so sorry, honey.” I croon, rubbing her back. <br /> “It’s okay.” She lies, pulling away. “How are you hanging in there?”<br /> “Not very well.” I confess. “I’m sort of dreading this, to be honest.”<br /> “It’s amazing how fast things can change, huh?” She asks, looking as though she might burst into tears. “I mean, what are we going to do, Elle?” <br /> “Well figure it out.” I promise. “We’ve been in tight spots before.” I remind her, “remember the summer we slept in boxes on the street after we ran away from the orphanage?”<br /> “Yeah,” She nods with a sad smile. “But it’s winter now, I don’t think we’ll last long in the elements. And you weren’t pregnant then.”<br /> “Yeah well, if I’m pregnant now….” I can’t look her in the eyes as I say this, “I don’t think I’m going to stay that way.”<br /> “What?” Cora exclaims, looking horrified. “But this is your only chance! And we aren’t completely hopeless, you’ve got time to try to figure out a plan B.”<br /> That phrase alone reminds me of Mike, and I realize I haven’t shared my latest news with Cora. “I can’t afford a baby even if I do find a job. I’m going to be paying off my debts for years to come.” I share, filling her in on the details of Mike and Kate’s latest betrayal. <br /> “I can’t believe this!” She bursts out when I’m finished. “It just isn’t fair, Ella! I mean, I thought we paid our dues, I thought we were done with suffering. After everything we’ve been through, we deserve a better future than this! You deserve to be a mom – no one loves children more than you do.”<br /> “And you deserve to be a doctor.” I reply. “You worked so hard.”<br /> “I still don’t think you should give up yet.” She frowns. “You can terminate the pregnancy up until the end of the first trimester. It would be a tragedy if you aborted it, then pulled off a miracle and it turned out you could have kept it. Don’t take that risk. Keep the baby until the very last moment.”<br /> “I don’t think miracles happen to people like me.” I remark softly. “Besides that seems kind of like it’s own form of torture – the longer I carry the baby the more attached I’m going to get. I don’t want this to hurt any worse than it has to.”<br /> “It’s going to hurt no matter what.” Cora reasons, “You ought to give yourself a chance – keep the door open. Don’t give up hope completely.”<br /> “Let’s just find out if I have to make that decision in the first place.” I state, changing the subject. “I may not even be pregnant.” Yet even as I say it, I can feel in my heart that I am. <br /> “Okay.” Cora agrees, pulling a sterile cup wrapped in plastic from one of her cabinets. “You know what to do.”<br /> I take the cup and quickly duck into the bathroom to provide a urine sample, returning it to her almost immediately. I pace back and forth across the office as Cora runs the tests. “Well?” I press, seeing the results pop up on her computer screen. <br /> She offers me a sad smile. “Congratulations little sister, you’re going to have a baby.”<br /> I told myself that I wouldn’t fall to pieces no matter the results, but as soon as the words are out of her mouth I’m crying. I’ve been waiting to hear those words for years and was beginning to think I never would. It’s both unimaginable joy, and unimaginable pain. I never knew my heart could hold such conflicting emotions at the same time, let alone in such extremes. “Really?”<br /> “Really.” Cora confirms, hugging me. “Come on, let’s do an ultrasound. You can hear the heartbeat.”<br /> “Isn’t it too early?” I squeak. <br /> “Just one of the benefits of being at the finest lab in the country.” Cora quips, the words bittersweet on her tongue. “Our technology is years ahead of what’s available in public hospitals.”<br /> Climbing onto the raised exam table, I lay back and lift my top, not bothering to change into a gown or cover my clothes with a sheet, I simply expose my flat belly as Cora wheels in an ultrasound on a cart. Within minutes the machine is emitting a strange whoosh woosh woosh, and Cora squirts a dollop of jelly on my tummy. She pressed the wand to my skin, and before long a tiny heartbeat sounds – making me cry all over again.<br /> However Cora is frowning deeply. “This is so strange, the baby seems awfully large, but we tested you at your last visit to be sure you weren’t already pregnant.”<br /> “What does that mean?” I ask anxiously. “Is the father just a big guy?”<br /> “I don’t just mean size – I mean development.” Cora purses her lips and furrows her brows as she studies the images, suddenly looking very worried. She’s whispering now, speaking to herself more than to me. “It doesn’t look human… but that can’t be… it’s not possible.”<br /> “What are you talking about?” I inquire, “How can you tell? Isn’t it just a tiny blob?”<br /> “As I said, our tech is state of the art. It doesn’t just highlight shapes - it analyzes the molecular structure.” Before she can say another word, the door bursts open, startling us both. To my shock and horror, Dominic Sinclair is standing in the doorframe, glaring at us as if we’ve done something terrible. “What’s the meaning of this?” He demands.<br /> “What’s the meaning of this? I repeat in shock, “what’s the meaning of you barging into a private exam?!”<br /> “Because,” He declares fiercely, and I swear his eyes are almost glowing with rage. “I can smell my pup.”<br /> &gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; <br /> Due to the word limit, it can only be updated here!

Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 1549617132555718 🔥🔥 Click to Read 👉🏻👉🏻 &quot;Don&#039;t walk away from me, Zell,&quot; Kosta yelled.<br /> &quot;Why not? You don&#039;t need me. You have Khalis here to take care of all your needs. She is welcome to you. I hope you all will be very happy together. As for me, I&#039;m done. Good luck to you and this pack. I hope you can handle the fallout for you and your whore&#039;s actions.&quot;<br /> &quot;Mind how you talk to me, Zell. I may be your mate, but I am still the alpha. As a matter of fact, as of right now, I am stripping you of all of your luna privileges.&quot;<br /> I spat. &quot;You should know, you didn&#039;t deprive me of Luna&#039;s title, but I didn&#039;t want it myself. I no longer want it. As for the business, have you forgotten that I own 51% of every business we have? I will withdraw all of my personal finances from the pack.&quot;<br /> &quot;Oh, and Alpha, You, of all people, know how ruthless I can be if pushed.&quot;<br /> ————————<br /> &quot;Well Zel, I just wanted to let you know that I plan on being the Luna of this pack, and your days as Kosta&#039;s mate and luna are numbered. I have decided that I deserve to be luna of the third strongest pack in the nation. I mean why should you get everything and I get stuck with nothing?&quot; Khalis says.<br /> <br /> Is this bimbo serious? I just sat there staring at her for a few seconds. Not much shocks me, but this is something else. I knew Khalis was selfish, but this is on a whole other level. There have been rumors about Khalis sleeping with mated males, but I always gave her the benefit of the doubt. I never thought we would be having this kind of conversation. We have been friends since elementary school. Her father and brothers are elite warriors in my father&#039;s pack. She was with me when Kosta declared we were mates. She even encouraged me to go with him when he begged me and my father to let me come to his pack with him before I turned 18. She moved to this pack with me, hoping to meet her own mate. She knows Kosta is my fated mate. The moon goddess chose for him me. We both have known Kosta for most of our lives. Kosta is one of my brother&#039;s best friends. I keep thinking about everything we have done together and now this bimbo is sitting in my office telling me she plans to take my mate. I&#039;m really speechless. This is a new low, even for her.<br /> <br /> &quot;Just so that I am clear, what exactly do you mean that you want my goddess-given mate and title,&quot; I asked.<br /> <br /> &quot;I mean exactly what I said. I want Kosta. I want to be his luna and I am going to make that happen. I&#039;ve already started the process. I deserve to be a luna.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;So you just want to come in here and tell me that you want my mate? What about your own mate? Have you thought about that? If the goddess meant for you to be a luna, you would have been fated to an alpha.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I waited for my mate. I gave the goddess a chance to do right by me. She gave everyone around me an Alpha. My sister got one, my little ugly cousin got one and even you got one, but what did I get? I got a lowly elite warrior as a mate.&quot; She spat.<br /> <br /> &quot;How can you speak like that about elite warriors? Your father and your brother are elite warriors.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I know, and I deserve better than that. I deserve to be a luna. I deserve to have people respect me and cater to me.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Well, obviously the goddess did not agree with you,&quot; I said. &quot;Just to clarify, you&#039;re saying that even though you found your destined mate, the one that was made specifically for you by the goddess, you&#039;re still interested in my mate? You are unbelievable. What is wrong with you?&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;It&#039;s simple. I&#039;m not meant to be the mate of a warrior. I am meant to be a luna. The moon goddess got it wrong and I am correcting her mistake. As soon as I scented my fated mate and realized he was a warrior, I rejected him and he accepted my rejection. Good riddance.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;So you think you know better than the goddess?&quot; I asked.<br /> <br /> I am still somewhat shocked. I have a hard time reconciling this cold-blooded bimbo to the person that has been my best friend for over a decade.<br /> <br /> &quot;Zell, I told you a long time ago not to trust her. She has always been this person. She just pretended with you.&quot; Sapphire said.<br /> <br /> &quot;This isn&#039;t personal, Zell. It&#039;s simple since the moon goddess did not give me an alpha, I&#039;m going to take one.&quot;<br /> <br /> This bimbo is sitting here calmly telling me she is going to take my mate from me like we are talking about going shopping. She actually thinks this is ok. How could I have been so blind for so long? Everyone tried to warn me about her, but she was my only friend and I just didn&#039;t want to believe that about her. I convinced myself that the others were just jealous of her.<br /> <br /> &quot;Do you really think it is ok to try to break your best friend&#039;s mate bond?&quot; I say.<br /> <br /> &quot;Oh Honey, I&#039;m not going to try. I&#039;m going to do it. He will be mine. I&#039;m just giving you the courtesy of walking away with your dignity. You might as well start making arrangements for yourself because once I am the luna, there is no way that I will let you remain in my pack. He may keep some tender feelings for you. After all, you are fated.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You got one thing right; Kosta and I are fated. You are not the first she-wolf to try to break our mate bond and since he is an alpha, I&#039;m sure you won&#039;t be the last. I will tell you what I tell them all, If you can get Kosta to cheat on our bond, you can have him. If he can do that, then he is not the man I have believed him to be and wouldn&#039;t deserve me. You would be welcome to him. Just remember, it is because of me and my family that this pack is ranked third. All of that goes with me, but you would be more than welcome to whatever is left.&quot; I say.<br /> <br /> &quot;It&#039;s not an if, it&#039;s a when it happens. And when you leave, Kosta will still be the alpha of this pack. You will just be the ex-luna of the pack. I will be the luna.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;That&#039;s where you are wrong. I am alpha born; a pure-blooded alpha. If I leave, I will still be an alpha and you will still be that bimbo on the side. Some males may be dumb enough to sleep with you, but I have not seen any of the mate men you&#039;ve been accused of leaving their mates for you. Even the ones who got rejected didn&#039;t choose to be with you. Now I suggest you leave my office while I am still being nice or else you will find out why I am feared by others. And if you are successful, don&#039;t think for a minute that my family will let either of you go.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I will leave for now. Enjoy this office while it is still yours. Your arrogance will be your downfall. Why should I fear you or your family? They have not even been around since your luna ceremony. I&#039;ll give you 1 week to make arrangements for yourself. In 7 days, all of this will be mine and you will be out. I will break you and completely disgrace you. I have to thank you for working so hard to build this pack up for me to take over. I will be sure to enjoy the fruit of your labor. I and my children will enjoy this. I am glad he listened to me early on when I told him to wait to have children so you could live your life first. I had to set the groundwork just in case. Now it&#039;s time for you to go before you give him an heir.&quot; Khalis says and walks out of my office like nothing happened.<br /> <br /> She has caused a lot of chaos since coming to this pack. I just didn&#039;t realize her character before now. I thought she was misunderstood. Now I know I was just naïve. It appears that I was the only person blind to her true nature.<br /> <br /> I spent the rest of the day working on pack security and setting up meetings. There are a few alphas wanting an alliance with us. Kosta and I have become quite the power couple in the werewolf society. Since we took over as alpha and luna, the pack and the businesses have grown tremendously. I put my heart and soul into making our pack the best. I got an early start. I graduated from high school when I was 16 and went to university. I graduated with a business degree at 20. Kosta has let me take the lead in our businesses. He knows that beast at negotiation and a whiz at growing businesses. I have acquired several new companies since working in the pack business. Kosta is still the CEO, but I am the COO of the company. I broker the deals and then call Kosta in to close the deal. Most alphas in our circle are jealous of Kosta because he has me at his side. Kosta used to be proud of me and what I did for the pack, but lately he has been resisting the changes I have been making and trying to take over more of the daily operations of the pack. He can&#039;t take it all because I am the sole financial backing of the pack and the businesses.<br /> <br /> I am known in werewolf society as a child prodigy, but don&#039;t get it twisted, I am not all brains. I can be very deadly when needed. I train every day. I am one of the strongest wolves alive, although I keep that hidden. I can be ruthless, but fair. I know that I am the total package. I am athletic, tall with curves in the right places. I&#039;ve never been one to compete with other she-wolves. I thought I was happy and had a good life. I thought Khalis was happy. We used to talk about finding our fated mates. I just can&#039;t understand how or why Khalis would try to come between me and my mate. I wish I could believe that my bond was safe and solid, but Sapphire is right about Kosta acting suspiciously lately. Kosta has been questioning me a lot lately. It&#039;s like he woke up a different person one day. He suddenly lost trust in me, but I have never given him a reason to doubt me. I have found him outside of my door listening to business phone calls, which is crazy because he could just walk in at any time and join the conversation. I have never hidden anything I was doing from him. The worse thing is that our life is now nonexistent. Kosta is always too busy or too tired. His behavior has led me to believe that he is not attracted to me anymore. He had the nerve to ask me why I have been trying so hard to seduce him lately. Like he didn&#039;t just stop making love to me cold turkey all of a sudden. We went from making love every day, sometime multiple times a day, to nothing in over a month. Seems like he should have been worried if I didn&#039;t try to seduce him. I don&#039;t know any mated pair that has gone this long without being intimate with each other. I don&#039;t know what the issue is. If we were not marked, I would wonder if he was cheating, but I know he is not. I would have felt it. Why did all of this suddenly become so hard? Why do I even need to seduce my goddess-given mate? It was never supposed to be this way. At least not yet. I&#039;m only 20 years old. Much too young to be going through a dry spell while mated.<br /> <br /> I got so desperate at one time I asked our friends what was going on with him. Kosta tells his beta and gamma everything. I figured if there was a problem, they would tell me and I could fix it, but they just said that he was under a lot of stress. What exactly does he have to stress about? The pack is doing better than it has been in years. In half a year, the pack will be self-sufficient again and won&#039;t need to depend on my finances to keep it afloat. I have everything set in motion for the pack to have more disposable cash and residual income. I have a feeling this has Khalis written all over it. Kosta appears to have fallen in line with her already. Maybe this was their plan all along. Kosta needed me to get his pack back on track and now that they are almost completely independent, they don&#039;t need me anymore. If that&#039;s the case, they are in for a rude awakening. My six-month plan depends on me closing several more deals. All of these deals are allies with my father, uncle, and grandfather. They will not work with Kosta if our bond falls apart. He would erase everything that I have done over the past three years. Well, that would be his problem.<br /> <br /> I got so caught up in working and thinking; I didn&#039;t realize I worked up to dinner time. No one called me for lunch. In fact, no one called me for dinner. That is strange. One of the omegas usually checks on me when I am working too much and makes sure I am eating. I guess everyone is following Kosta. Since he has not been showing me any care, they are not either. That really hurts. I sacrificed a lot for this pack. I thought they cared more than this for me. I should just go back to my room. I don&#039;t know if I want to be around this pack right now, especially if they could turn their backs on me this quickly. Were they all just using me for my family&#039;s wealth?<br /> <br /> &quot;We need to eat Zell. Remember, we are eating for our pup as well. Don&#039;t let them win. We are better than this. If they show us they don&#039;t want us here, we will leave. Remember, we are alpha born. We will rise above this. We will go back to where we are celebrated. If they turn against us, they don&#039;t deserve us. We will sit back and let them destroy themselves.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You are right Sapphire. Let&#039;s go eat. Our pup needs sustenance.&quot;<br /> <br /> I went and cleaned myself up and walked to the dining room. As soon as I walked through the door, all the talking stopped. The whole place went silent. As I walked all the way in, I saw why everyone went silent. Khalis was sitting in my seat, putting food on Kosta&#039;s plate like she is the luna. When she saw me, she just smirked and kept doing what she was doing. Kosta just keep eating like I was not standing there. Sapphire stared, pushing forward. She wanted blood. I did too, but I have to think about our pup.<br /> <br /> &quot;What is going on, Kosta? Why is she sitting in my seat feeding you?&quot; I growled.<br /> <br /> &quot;I meant no harm, Zell. You were busy, so I decided to take care of Kosta for you. Someone needs to care for him while you are caring for other things. &quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I was speaking to my mate, not his bimbo on the side.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You were not here for your mate, so I have been taking care of his needs.&quot;<br /> <br /> Sapphire pushed forward and growled loudly. Everyone in the room bowed their neck to her.<br /> <br /> &quot;I could kill you in less than 30 seconds, Khalis. I would advise you not to keep crossing my line and you will find yourself very dead. You obviously have forgotten who I am. Don&#039;t make me remind you what my family name is,&quot; Sapphire said.<br /> <br /> I regained control and looked at Kosta. He didn&#039;t even appear to be concerned. He didn&#039;t show an ounce of regret or remorse. That took a little of the fight out of me. Khalis can only do what Kosta allows her to do.<br /> <br /> &quot;Kosta, I asked you a question. What is going on?&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;As Khalis said, you were busy, so she came to do your job for you. If you spent more time catering to me, your mate, and less time working or whatever you are doing, Khalis wouldn&#039;t have to step in and take care of my needs.&quot; Kosta said.<br /> <br /> I and every pack member gasped. I could not believe he openly disrespected me like that after everything I have done for him and this pack. I did all of that for him. This ungrateful hip.<br /> <br /> &quot;So now I&#039;m working too much, making your pack financially secure? You were not complaining when the pack was bankrupted and I worked day and night just so you could feed the pack another day. I was working too hard then. It&#039;s only now that you think the pack is out of the woods that I am working too hard. Now that everyone is comfortable and not at risk of starving, you want to change. Ok, I see who you are now. So instead of appreciating the sacrifices I made for us and the pack, you are sitting here with your bimbo, enjoying the feast that my hard work made possible. I am glad I finally understand where your priorities lie. Trust me, I will never make the same mistake twice.&quot; I said and walked away.<br /> <br /> I need to get out of here before I wolf out and kill one of them. After tonight, Khalis can have him. He is not the male I thought he was. I refuse to fight for someone who can spit on all the effort I put into making him great.<br /> <br /> &quot;Don&#039;t walk away from me, Zell,&quot; Kosta yelled.<br /> <br /> &quot;Why not? You don&#039;t need me. You have Khalis here to take care of all your needs. She is welcome to you. I hope you all will be very happy together. As for me, I&#039;m done. Good luck to you and this pack. I hope you can handle the fallout for you and your bimbo&#039;s actions.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Mind how you talk to me, Zell. I may be your mate, but I am still the alpha. As a matter of fact, as of right now, I am stripping you of all of your luna privileges.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Alpha, what are you doing?&quot; Beta James asked<br /> <br /> &quot;Mind your business Beta. This is my pack.&quot; Kosta says.<br /> <br /> &quot;Yes, and as your beta and friend, it is my job to tell you when you are making a mistake. Alpha, you are dangerously close to crossing the line of no return. Let&#039;s all calm down and discuss this later.&quot; Beta James said.<br /> <br /> &quot;Beta, my word stands. Zel, until you learn to respect me as your alpha, you can forget about representing this pack in any aspect. I will be instructing the security team to restrict all of your access. You are no longer the COO of our businesses. As of now, you are just a regular pact member with no power.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;First of all Alpha.&quot; I spat. &quot;Respect is earned. While you are trying to throw your weight around, you can have the luna title back. I no longer want it. As for the business, have you forgotten that I own 51% of every business we have? I also provide 60% of the pack budget from my personal accounts. So while you can restrict my duties as Luna, you cannot touch the business, but I&#039;ll do you a solid. You can buy me out of the business and I will withdraw all of my personal finances from the pack.&quot;<br /> <br /> I can see that he had forgotten how dependent his pack was on me, but oh well. He made his bed. Now he and his bimbo can lie in it.<br /> <br /> &quot;Oh, and Alpha, if you try to strong-arm me, I will have to call in the full loan that I gave this pack when we mated. Remember, we signed a contract for the loan. You have only paid me a small portion of the loan and I have not pushed the issue, but the contract is legal and binding. Don&#039;t push me, Kosta. You, of all people, know how ruthless I can be if pushed.&quot;<br /> <br /> I walked off again and made it as far as the stairs. I realized that I could not stay in my current room anymore. There is no way on this goddess-green earth that I want to be in a room with Kosta. Not that he has really shared it with me lately. Now I know why. Khalis has been feeding him and he has been eating it up. They both miscalculated. They thought I would be leaving here with nothing. The jokes on them. I may have been in love, but there is no love in business. I may have put my all into saving this pack and making it independently wealthy, but my parents did not raise a fool and I protected my finances. I invested millions in this company and pack. Did he really think I would protect my money? Does he not remember the prenup my father made him sign since I was a minor when he brought me to this pack? He never gained control over my finances.<br /> <br /> Khalis just showed her hand. After what I just saw, she has a right to be confident. Kosta has completely changed. He is not the man that I mated. He is not the boy that I followed around when I was younger. I don&#039;t know what happened or when he changed. Maybe this is who he really is and, like with Khalis, I just never saw his true self. He must have hidden it from my father and brother as well. There is no way they would have let me come here when I was 17 if they knew this was how he would end up treating me. I can see now that it is over between Kosta and me. I need to start planning my exit. I pulled up my computer and moved all of my finances from the pack accounts. I closed all the joint accounts I had with Kosta. It was mostly my money that financed them. I left the ones that he financed in his name. I don&#039;t want anything from him at all. After I handle business, I call my brother. I will need his help to leave here safely. Now that Kosta knows that all the money is still tied up with me, I doubt he will let me leave easily. I&#039;m sure he and the bimbo are plotting up something.<br /> <br /> I called my brother and tall him waht happened.<br /> <br /> &quot;So what&#039;s the plan, baby sis?&quot; my brother answered.<br /> <br /> &quot;Well, I have already moved all of my personal money from the pack accounts. They are now responsible for themselves. I&#039;m not sure how that is going to go over. I was covering most of the pack&#039;s budget. Tomorrow, I will contact my attorneys to protect all of my other assets. I also plan to call our allies and let them know that I am no longer associated with the pack. I am erasing everything I&#039;ve done over the past three years. They will need to start over from scratch and rebuild it all on their own. There is no way they will get to enjoy my hard work. No, sir.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Very smart Zell.

Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 941548644157897 📖 Read the full version👉 &quot;Can you sign the divorce now? I&#039;m pregnant with your husband&#039;s child.&quot; After receiving this mysterious email and pregnancy test, I threw the divorce papers in my husband&#039;s face: &quot;We are divorced, you get out of here!&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Wesley, is it okay for us to have a child? I have been married to you for three years and you have never touched me once. I will fulfill you and your Bai Yueguang. I give up this marriage. After tonight, you can Go find her! Now, just think of it as compensation for my feelings for you over the years, okay?&quot;<br /> After Layla finished saying this, she leaned forward and pecked the man in front of her. She reached out for Wesley Whitman&#039;s belt.<br /> With a click, the belt was unbuckled.<br /> &quot;Stop!&quot;<br /> When she was touching the zipper and preparing to take the next step, Wesley suddenly grabbed her hand.<br /> &quot;Layla, I want a divorce.&quot;<br /> Wesley&#039;s voice was pleasant, yet his tone was cold, shocking Layla.<br /> Layla froze, looking at Wesley and saying, &quot;Why? Is it because I just said I wanted a baby? I was joking. If you don&#039;t want to...&quot;<br /> &quot;Enough. Stop deceiving yourself. Have you forgotten why we got married?&quot; Wesley&#039;s voice was extremely cold.<br /> Of course, she remembered. Three years ago, Layla asked a brilliant doctor to save Wesley&#039;s grandmother. His grandmother liked Layla so much that she forcibly arranged their marriage.<br /> &quot;But... But it&#039;s been three years. You have no feelings for me at all?&quot;<br /> Wesley looked at Layla indifferently, then turned around and took out the divorce papers prepared from the drawer.<br /> It hurt!<br /> Layla&#039;s heart seemed to be torn.<br /> Seeing her motionless for a long time, Wesley became a little impatient and said calmly, &quot;Amber is pregnant.&quot;<br /> It was quite shocking news.<br /> Layla looked up at Wesley with disbelief and red eyes.<br /> Amber Clark, Wesley&#039;s first love, was pregnant?<br /> Anger, humiliation, sadness, and all kinds of emotions welled up Layla&#039;s torso, almost making her suffocated.<br /> After three years of marriage, she thought she could soften Wesley and didn&#039;t expect to get this result.<br /> It was sad, but it was more ridiculous.<br /> &quot;Tell me what kind of compensation you want. As long as it&#039;s reasonable, I can satisfy you.&quot;<br /> With a superior attitude, Wesley stood beside the bed, which hurt Layla.<br /> Layla was in despair. She said with a self-deprecating sneer, &quot;No, thank you.&quot;<br /> &quot;You&#039;ll have Number 13 Villa in the Lakeside Villa Area, and I&#039;ll give you 50 million dollars. &quot;<br /> &quot;I told you that I didn&#039;t need compensation.&quot;<br /> Layla took a deep breath, took the divorce papers, and signed her name. She then quickly packed her things and left the villa with her suitcase.<br /> Walking on the deserted streets, Layla felt indescribably lonely.<br /> She took out her phone and dialed the number she hadn&#039;t dialed in three years.<br /> &quot;Adrian... I want to go home...&quot;<br /> Her eyes were red, and she was brimmed over with sorrow.<br /> &quot;Don&#039;t cry. I got you! Where are you? I&#039;ll come over right now!&quot;<br /> Half an hour later, her eldest brother Adrian Lewis arrived.<br /> Helicopters roared overhead. Layla looked up and saw a dozen helicopters descending slowly.<br /> As the cabin door opened, dozens of bodyguards uniformly dressed in black suits trotted over in an orderly manner, greeting her respectfully.<br /> &quot;Ms. Lewis.&quot;<br /> Layla nodded slightly and said, &quot;Yeah.&quot;<br /> She raised her head and looked behind the bodyguards.<br /> Immediately, the bodyguards quickly stood in two rows, making a way.<br /> A man with a gorgeous face gradually appeared in front of her. His dark blue suit made him look gentle and elegant.<br /> He walked quickly to Layla and said, &quot;Layla!&quot;<br /> Layla&#039;s eyes gradually turned red, and tears rolled down uncontrollably. Choking, she threw herself into Adrian&#039;s broad torso.<br /> &quot;Adrian!&quot;<br /> Adrian held her firmly in his arms, and his calm voice made Layla feel safe.<br /> &quot;Don&#039;t be afraid. I will take you home right now.&quot;<br /> The fancy villa covered a vast area. Precious and rare green plants and endless lawns added grandeur to the extremely luxurious villa.<br /> Derek Lewis, who was incredibly powerful in Bellcester, couldn&#039;t help but feel excited at the sight of Layla getting out of the limited edition Rolls-Royce.<br /> &quot;Layla.&quot;<br /> &quot;Dad...&quot; Layla trotted over and threw herself into his arms, crying so hard.<br /> Grace Lewis, who showed grace and dignity in her movements, gently patted Layla&#039;s shoulder. &quot;Sweetheart, stop crying. You&#039;re breaking my heart. Your three brothers and us will protect you in the future, and no one dares to hurt you again.&quot;<br /> &quot;Mom, it&#039;s great to have you.&quot; Layla tilted her head, like a nestling that had not returned home for many days, and nuzzled her shoulder affectionately.<br /> Looking at her eyes which were red and swollen from crying, Grace sighed distressedly, &quot;Go in first.&quot;<br /> &quot;Layla, did you divorce Wesley because he betrayed you?&quot; Grace squinted and said with a unique domineering look, &quot;If he betrayed you, I would send someone immediately to disable him!&quot;<br /> Layla nestled in Grace&#039;s arms. After a while, she spoke with a choked voice.<br /> &quot;Mom, it&#039;s my fault. I knew he didn&#039;t love me but someone else. But I still tried to impress him with my sincerity and get him to love me...&quot;<br /> She took a deep breath. Sadness in her eyes was gradually replaced by determination.<br /> &quot;I will no longer be so stupid and sacrifice myself for someone who doesn&#039;t love me. I will stay by your side from now on. You are the most important people to me.&quot;<br /> Layla&#039;s family once warned her that Wesley had lost his memory, but she didn&#039;t care and insisted on being with him wholeheartedly. At that moment, seeing her precious daughter awakening, Grace felt pleased and pecked Layla on her cheeks with a smile.<br /> &quot;Great. My confident girl is back.&quot;<br /> Derek was even more excited. He said, &quot;Immediately donate one billion dollars to the orphanage&#039;s charity project and name it after Layla so that the stupid Wesley will know how powerful background Layla has.&quot;<br /> Adrian responded with a smile, &quot;Okay. I&#039;ll let someone make arrangements.&quot;<br /> &quot;We should celebrate Layla&#039;s divorce. Haven&#039;t Bryce and Charles come back?&quot; Layla&#039;s second brother Bryce Lewis made a video call when Grace finished speaking.<br /> &quot;Layla, I have a boxing match abroad today and will return tomorrow. And I will bring you the gold belt!&quot;<br /> Layla felt touched. Tears began to form as she looked at the high-spirited Bryce on the screen.<br /> &quot;Bryce, good luck with the competition! I&#039;ll wait for you at home.&quot;<br /> Just as the call was hung up, Layla&#039;s phone rang again. It was a call from her youngest brother, Charles Lewis.<br /> &quot;Layla, I&#039;m sorry. I couldn&#039;t leave while filming in another place and couldn&#039;t go back to celebrate your divorce. But I have prepared a divorce surprise for you on Twitter. Go check it out quickly. &quot;<br /> Layla clicked on Twitter and saw a trending topic about the well-known actor Charles Lewis&#039; cancellation of all cooperation with the Whitman Group, and it made several headlines.<br /> Charles had a good reputation in the entertainment industry. Now that the cooperation was suddenly canceled, his fans began to speculate whether there was a problem with the Whitman Group. They left comments on the Whitman Group&#039;s official account and criticized them, leading to the Whitman Group&#039;s stocks falling.<br /> Layla guessed Wesley must be very busy dealing with this matter right now.<br /> Layla suddenly felt refreshed. &quot;Charles, well done!&quot;<br /> &quot;Of course. Look who you&#039;re talking to.&quot;<br /> As Charles spoke, his agent ran over to remind him that filming was about to start.<br /> Time was urgent. To avoid keeping others waiting, Charles had no choice but to hang up the video reluctantly after he promised Layla he would bring her many gifts when he returned.<br /> It was the next morning in a luxurious bedroom with many expensive furniture.<br /> Layla sat up from the bed and yawned lazily.<br /> She found staying in her home more comfortable and could sleep until she woke up naturally. However, she felt guilty when she slept a little longer at the Whitman family.<br /> At breakfast, as soon as Layla put the expensive caviar in her mouth, a girl in pink clothes rushed over and hugged her.<br /> &quot;Layla, congratulations on your divorce. I missed you so much,&quot; Lily Brown said while rubbing her face against Layla.<br /> Lily was Layla&#039;s best friend. They were so close that they had almost no secrets from each other.<br /> However, after marrying Wesley, she devoted herself wholeheartedly to him, gradually losing contact with Lily.<br /> Seeing her now, Layla felt sad inexplicably and hugged her hard. &quot;Lily, I miss you so much, too.&quot;<br /> Lily patted Layla on the shoulder. &quot;Come on. Let&#039;s go to the bar to have fun and celebrate your divorce. You finally left that scumbag.&quot;<br /> &quot;Okay.&quot; Layla smiled, turned around, and went to the large cloakroom to pick out a dress.<br /> <br /> Chapter 2 <br /> It was in the bar.<br /> People drank wine and had fun. The flickering light added a bit of a romantic mood to the noisy place.<br /> Layla, wearing a red dress, attracted most people&#039;s attention as soon as she appeared.<br /> She had exquisite facial features. The tight dress design highlighted her pretty waist and outlined her perfect figure.<br /> Her smile was so captivating that people couldn&#039;t take their eyes away.<br /> Holding Layla&#039;s arm, Lily smiled, &quot;Well, with your charm, as long as you are willing, countless men will pursue you. You don&#039;t have to care about Wesley.&quot;<br /> Layla smiled and said nothing.<br /> She was calm when she heard Wesley&#039;s name.<br /> Layla was stupid and fell in love with such a horrible man. She would never allow herself to make such a mistake again!<br /> Lily took Layla to sit on the sofa. She waved her hand and said domineeringly, &quot;I remember the male models in this bar are pretty good. How about I ask some gorgeous guys to come and have fun with you? I promise to serve you well.&quot;<br /> Layla held Lily&#039;s hand and shook her head. &quot;I&#039;m not interested in men anymore. From now on, I want to live alone and work on my career.&quot;<br /> &quot;That&#039;s wonderful! We don&#039;t need men and can live happily alone!&quot; Lily opened the wine bottle and poured a glass for Layla and herself, then toasted with Layla and said, &quot;Happy divorce. Cheers!&quot;<br /> &quot;Cheers!&quot;<br /> Meanwhile, Wesley sat on another sofa on the left side of the bar.<br /> He shook the wine glass, and his gorgeous face was covered with a dark glow in the dim light, making him look even more noble and unattainable.<br /> But now, there was a frown on his face, which showed that he was not in a good mood.<br /> Charles canceled all cooperation with the Whitman Group, which greatly impacted his company. He still couldn&#039;t contact Charles and couldn&#039;t understand why Charles suddenly stopped working with them even though they had cooperated well. Moreover, Charles did not hesitate to pay huge compensation for breach of contract and terminate the cooperation no matter what.<br /> With Charles&#039; good reputation in the entertainment industry, the public began to speculate whether there was a problem with the Whitman Group&#039;s products. This also led to a rapid decline in the company&#039;s sales and a large backlog of products in the warehouse.<br /> Wesley&#039;s friend Paul Adams knew what he was worried about. Paul put his elbow on his shoulder and teased with a smile, &quot;Don&#039;t think so much. Charles is famous for his weird character in the entertainment industry. Who he wants to cooperate with depends on his mood. Maybe he will figure it out tomorrow and cooperate with you again. Besides, it’s not a bad thing for you. After enduring it for so many years, you finally got rid of your ex-wife and won’t have to be tortured by her anymore! Something good happens, and something bad happens.&quot;<br /> Wesley glanced sideways at him and did not respond.<br /> Paul winked at Kevin Cooper beside him. Kevin instantly took the hint and changed the subject.<br /> &quot;Wesley, you said the design master AdoreWes was in the Lewis family&#039;s design company. Have you found her?&quot;<br /> &quot;Not yet, but I have thought of a way to find her,&quot; Wesley said confidently.<br /> &quot;That&#039;s good. If you find her, you can recruit her, and you will dominate the jewelry design field.&quot; Then, Kevin muttered, &quot;This designer&#039;s name is AdoreWes. It comes from &#039;adore&#039; and &#039;Wes&#039; in Wesley. Do you think she admires you very much, so she gave it this name?&quot;<br /> Wesley was speechless. &quot;Why didn&#039;t you say that she is my wife?&quot;<br /> As soon as he finished speaking, Paul slapped him on the shoulder and stammered.<br /> &quot;Mr. Whitman, look, is that your wife? Oh, sorry, your ex-wife. Why does she look different?&quot;<br /> Wesley thought, &quot;Layla?<br /> Would a boring person like her come to the bar?&quot;<br /> Wesley followed Paul&#039;s sight and looked over. The red figure made his eyes light up.<br /> It was really her.<br /> Her waist was slender, and her hair was hanging down her back. Her pretty face was filled with confidence and a bright smile.<br /> In Wesley&#039;s memory, she was always submissive...<br /> He didn&#039;t know that she had such an unknown side in private.<br /> &quot;Someone hit on her! I didn&#039;t expect your ex-wife to be quite popular after divorcing you,&quot; Paul teased and watched it while eating chips.<br /> Wesley raised his eyes and saw Layla smiling at a man.<br /> This smile made him inexplicably uncomfortable.<br /> Suddenly, Wesley felt upset and subconsciously took his glass, trying to use the wine to drown out the unreasonable displeasure.<br /> <br /> Chapter 3 <br /> However, the wine had already been finished.<br /> He put the wine glass back on the table irritably, leaned on the back of the chair, and looked toward Layla.<br /> &quot;Sorry, I have no plans for dating for the time being.&quot;<br /> Layla declined the man who had come to ask for her contact information and smiled politely.<br /> &quot;It&#039;s... It&#039;s okay.&quot; The man gave up. After being rejected, he stole a glance at Layla, touched the back of his head in embarrassment, and left with a red face.<br /> Although rejected, he felt glad to talk to such a gorgeous woman.<br /> Lily smiled and clinked her glass against Layla&#039;s. &quot;This is the fifth man you&#039;ve rejected tonight. You&#039;re really popular.&quot;<br /> &quot;I have no interest in any of them.&quot; Layla took a sip of the wine. Her red lips were wet from the wine, reflecting a glimmer, which made people want to peck at her.<br /> &quot;That&#039;s right. Men are all bad. We&#039;d better stay away from them.&quot; Lily opened another bottle of wine and filled Layla&#039;s glass. &quot;Come on. Let&#039;s get drunk tonight!&quot;<br /> Layla finished the wine in one go.<br /> She was dashing and had a unique beauty and great attraction.<br /> As Wesley looked at her, he felt dry in his throat, rubbing his fingertips gently.<br /> &quot;Your ex-wife is very charming, isn&#039;t she? Could it be that she pretended to be well-behaved when she was with you?&quot;<br /> While talking, Paul turned his head to look at Wesley. Seeing him looking at Layla, he instantly said in surprise, &quot;Didn&#039;t you always hate your ex-wife the most and find it annoying to even look at her? Why are you staring at her now that you&#039;re divorced?&quot;<br /> Wesley calmly looked away and denied it, &quot;When did you see me looking at her?&quot;<br /> &quot;Just now,&quot; Paul said secretly.<br /> Paul curled his lips and didn&#039;t reveal him.<br /> While the two were talking, an arrogant and lewd voice came from the seat next to them.<br /> &quot;Look, that girl sitting there is so hot. Are you guys interested? I&#039;ll get her for you guys to have fun.&quot;<br /> &quot;Didn&#039;t you see that she had rejected many men? I don&#039;t believe you can get her!&quot;<br /> &quot;You just need to give her some pills. Wait and see how I get her.&quot;<br /> The blond-haired man skillfully took a box from his pocket and put two red pills into the water.<br /> As the bubbles appeared, the pills and wine were mixed.<br /> The blond-haired man shook his glass and walked towards Layla with a smile.<br /> &quot;Beauty, can I buy you a drink?&quot;<br /> Layla and Lily had drunk a lot. Now, their eyes were blurry, and they couldn&#039;t see clearly.<br /> Still, Layla knew she didn&#039;t want to drink at the moment, so she waved her hand and refused.<br /> &quot;I can&#039;t drink anymore.&quot;<br /> The blond-haired man pushed the wine glass before Layla and said, &quot;Beauty, come on. Just think of it as making a friend.&quot;<br /> Annoyed by the blond-haired man, Layla frowned, took the glass, and wanted to put it aside.<br /> Unexpectedly, someone held her wrist before she could put down the glass, and the glass was taken away.<br /> Then, a slightly sullen voice reached her ears. &quot;Layla, have you lost your mind? You dare to drink the wine anyone gave in such a messy place as the bar?&quot;<br /> <br /> Chapter 4 <br /> The familiar voice made Layla sober up.<br /> She raised her eyes, which were reddish from alcohol, and saw Wesley. She couldn&#039;t help but say, &quot;Wesley?&quot;<br /> Her voice was surprisingly pleasant.<br /> Wesley opened his mouth and was about to respond when he heard Layla&#039;s voice again.<br /> &quot;Why... Why does this scumbag appear in my...hallucination? What a bad luck!&quot;<br /> Paul, who was following, heard that and couldn&#039;t help laughing.<br /> Noticing Wesley&#039;s angry look, he could barely hold back his smile.<br /> Wesley withdrew his eyes from Paul, looked at the drunk Layla, and pressed his lips tightly.<br /> &quot;Layla Lewis!&quot;<br /> As he growled through gritted teeth, he held Layla&#039;s wrist more tightly.<br /> The pain in her wrist and the livid man before her made Layla realize this was not an illusion.<br /> She lowered her head and couldn&#039;t help but murmur, &quot;So it&#039;s not an illusion? That&#039;s even more unlucky!&quot;<br /> Wesley heard those words clearly.<br /> He took a breath, not bothering to argue with her, and asked in a deep voice, &quot;Where do you live now? I&#039;ll take you back.&quot;<br /> Layla sobered up a lot, snorted, and coldly shook off Wesley&#039;s hand.<br /> &quot;I don&#039;t need you to send me!&quot;<br /> Looking at the empty palms, Wesley said, &quot;Do you know that if I hadn&#039;t stopped you just now, you would have drunk that wine with drugs?&quot;<br /> Layla was surprised. She didn&#039;t expect this to happen. She had no intention of drinking it, but there was no need to tell Wesley.<br /> She just wanted to stay away from him now and didn&#039;t want to have anything to do with him.<br /> &quot;Then what? Does this have anything to do with you? Don&#039;t forget that we are divorced. You don&#039;t need to worry about my affairs!&quot;<br /> Wesley became angrier. &quot;You...&quot; Before he could say anything, he was interrupted by a gentle voice coming from the door.<br /> &quot;Layla.&quot;<br /> Hearing this voice, Layla walked passed Wesley and threw herself into Adrian&#039;s arms.<br /> &quot;Why are you here?&quot;<br /> Adrian patted her back gently. &quot;I&#039;m here to take you home.&quot;<br /> &quot;And... And Lily.&quot; Layla pointed at Lily who was lying on the bar, drunk.<br /> &quot;Okay.&quot; Adrian protected Layla and winked at the bodyguard.<br /> The bodyguard nodded and walked over to help Lily get up.<br /> &quot;You&#039;re so sweet,&quot; Layla said softly, found a comfortable position, and leaned in Adrian&#039;s arms.<br /> Adrian smiled and rubbed her hair lovingly. When they came to the door, he looked back at Wesley.<br /> There was tension. They had strong hostility toward each other.<br /> &quot;Is that Adrian Lewis, the famous business genius in Bellcester? How did your ex-wife get involved with him? Paul asked curiously.<br /> Wesley watched Layla nestle in Adrian&#039;s arms, showing dependence and trust in every move.<br /> He thought, &quot;How could she get in touch with Adrian after just two days away from me?<br /> What is their relationship?&quot;<br /> Wesley couldn&#039;t explain what he felt at this time, but anger was rising in his torso.<br /> Paul sensed Wesley&#039;s anger and cried out in disbelief and shock.<br /> &quot;Mr. Whitman? No way. Are you... Are you angry?&quot;<br /> <br /> Chapter 5 <br /> Wesley frowned and looked away calmly. &quot;You have a really rich imagination.&quot;<br /> Paul rolled his eyes speechlessly, secretly complaining, &quot;No means yes.&quot;<br /> Wesley stood there for a few seconds, then walked to the blond-haired man and spoke coldly, &quot;You just said who you wanted to play?&quot;<br /> Seeing that Wesley was not easy to mess with, the blond-haired man turned pale and trembled.<br /> &quot;I... I was just... just joking.&quot;<br /> Wesley glanced at the blond-haired man with his cold eyes. &quot;Someone.&quot;<br /> Two bodyguards in black walked out of the darkness.<br /> &quot;Get him to drink the glass of wine on the table.&quot;<br /> Two bodyguards grabbed the blond-haired man&#039;s chin, picked up the wine glass, and poured the wine into his mouth.<br /> The blond-haired man&#039;s companions sat there dumbstruck, not daring to breathe.<br /> Wesley looked at him indifferently, turned around, and walked out.<br /> &quot;You deserve it! How dare you mess with him?&quot; Paul cursed and quickly left with Wesley.<br /> &quot;Wait!&quot; After catching up, Kevin looked at Layla who had just gotten into the car and frowned thoughtfully.<br /> He thought, &quot;Wesley, who had always been observant and a good judge of character, seems to have made a mistake this time.&quot;<br /> The next day, after breakfast, Derek looked at Layla and asked, &quot;Layla, what are your plans next? Do you want to manage the company or rest for a while?&quot;<br /> Layla pondered momentarily and responded, &quot;I want to work in the family&#039;s jewelry company.&quot;<br /> &quot;You have an amazing design talent since you were a child, and you have become famous all over the world before you graduate. You gave up your career for Wesley, but now you can return to the right track. I am happy for you.&quot;<br /> Derek gladly asked the servant to bring over a dozen documents and information. &quot;See if you like any of the jewelry companies.&quot;<br /> Layla carefully flipped through a few documents and tapped the middle document.<br /> &quot;I&#039;ll go with this one.&quot;<br /> It was LayMaple Jewelry Design which was named after Layla by her parents.<br /> &quot;Okay. I&#039;ll have someone make arrangements right now and ask them to make an office suitable for you before tomorrow.&quot; Derek immediately called and mobilized the entire company.<br /> &quot;No need to bother. I can pick a ready-made one.&quot; Layla didn&#039;t want to make such a big fuss.<br /> &quot;It&#039;s rare that you want to take over the company, so I should take it seriously.&quot; Derek patted her hand thoughtfully. &quot;Although the company is left to manage, you don&#039;t need to put too much pressure on yourself. It doesn&#039;t matter even if it goes bankrupt. Anyway, we have many companies, so you can do whatever you want.&quot;<br /> Layla smiled, thinking, &quot;Dad dotes on me too much. Isn&#039;t he afraid of spoiling me?&quot;<br /> Since Layla was a child, her parents always tried their best to buy whatever she wanted.<br /> Layla remembered that when she was in elementary school, her teacher talked about the pyramids and the desert. She went back and asked her parents what they were like. As a result, her parents took her on a private jet to visit there that day.<br /> &quot;By the way, it&#039;s been so long since Layla returned, and we haven&#039;t transferred money to you.&quot; Grace gave her band card and said, &quot;There are 100 million dollars in it. If it&#039;s not enough, just tell me.&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s... too much.&quot; She already had enough pocket money.<br /> Grace insisted, &quot;You must be kind to yourself. Buy whatever you want. We are family. Take it.&quot;<br /> Derek said, &quot;Your mother is right. Here is another bank card with 100 million dollars. Buy whatever you want. Don&#039;t be too frugal.&quot;<br /> Layla had no choice but to accept it. &quot;Thank you, Dad, Mom.&quot;<br /> The next day, Layla drove a red Maserati to the gate of LayMaple Jewelry Design.<br /> The building was tall, shimmering in the sunlight.<br /> She walked in and tapped lightly on the desk of the receptionist who had dozed off so early in the morning.<br /> &quot;Hello.&quot;<br /> The receptionist wiped the remaining saliva from the corner of her mouth, looked at Layla holding Chanel&#039;s latest bag, stood up straight, and asked cautiously, &quot;Hello, Miss, are you here to discuss cooperation?&quot;<br /> &quot;I&#039;m Layla Lewis.&quot;<br /> Layla&#039;s voice was very soft, but it frightened the receptionist so much that she hurriedly came before her and greeted her respectfully.<br /> &quot;Ms. Lewis, please come this way!&quot;<br /> Yesterday, Derek told everyone to take care of Layla, but he did not reveal that Layla was her daughter. Therefore, the employees only knew that a female president would come and take over the company today. They did not know the specific relationship between her and the Lewis family.<br /> Layla followed the receptionist into the elevator. Soon, they reached the president&#039;s office on the top floor.<br /> But a fat man was sitting on the office chair, fiddling with the plants on the desk. He looked so comfortable and relaxed.<br /> Layla frowned and glanced at the receptionist.<br /> &quot;Is this my office or his?&quot;<br /> The receptionist was startled and explained nervously, &quot;This... This is your office. Maybe Mr. Cox wanted to try for you to see if there is anything wrong with the chair. I will go tell him that you are here.&quot;<br /> Gary Cox was the vice president of the company. Before Layla came, Gary was in the top position.<br /> But Layla was the person Derek personally asked the employees to take care of. He even ordered the workers to work overnight to build an office exclusively for her.<br /> Layla hadn&#039;t used the chair yet, but Gary had sat down.<br /> Worried about Gary, the receptionist walked over quickly and said, &quot;Mr. Cox, please get up. This is Ms. Lewis&#039; seat.&quot;<br /> Gary said, &quot;She hasn&#039;t come here yet. And she pulled some strings to get the job and knows nothing. She has to rely on me to gain a foothold in the company.&quot;<br /> &quot;Mr. Cox...&quot; The receptionist kept winking at Gary.<br /> Gary didn&#039;t take her hint and raised his head in annoyance.<br /> Sadly, he saw Layla who had a half-smile.<br /> She threw Harry an intimidating glance. Gary stiffened and slowly stood up from the chair.<br /> &quot;You... You are...&quot;<br /> Layla crossed her arms and sneered, &quot;Didn&#039;t you just say I had pulled some strings to get the job and know nothing? How come you don&#039;t know who I am?&quot;<br /> Gary&#039;s body went limp, and he was frightened. He quickly stepped forward and apologized.<br /> &quot;Ms. Lewis, I&#039;m sorry. I didn&#039;t know you were here. I... I will leave now. Please take a seat.&quot;<br /> Layla glanced at the seat where Gary had been sitting, then turned to the receptionist and coldly ordered, &quot;Throw this chair away and have someone replace it with a new one.&quot;<br /> The receptionist nodded repeatedly, saying, &quot;Okay, Ms. Lewis.&quot;<br /> &quot;Did she think the place where I sat was dirty?&quot; Gary thought.<br /> Gary was angry but dared not. He could only lower his head in fear.<br /> Layla didn&#039;t bother to argue with him and pointed to the door.<br /> &quot;Get out.&quot;<br /> &quot;Yes.&quot; Gary did not dare to stay longer and left immediately.<br /> Then, he scolded at the door, &quot;You got the job by pulling strings. Stop pretending. You really think you are so capable? When the sales drop and the company&#039;s profit fall, let&#039;s see how you explain it to the boss!&quot;<br /> <br /> Chapter 6 <br /> Ten minutes later, the chair was replaced with a new one. Layla sat down and began to read the company&#039;s recent design drafts.<br /> The more she looked, the more tightly she frowned.<br /> She scolded inwardly, &quot;What the hell are these?<br /> Were they designed by a professional designer?&quot;<br /> Layla looked at the designer&#039;s name and immediately called the design department. &quot;Ask Anna Smith to come over.&quot;<br /> Soon, Anna appeared in the office wearing a red suit.<br /> As soon as she walked in, the strong smell of perfume filled the office, which was unpleasant.<br /> Layla frowned even more quietly and pulled out one of the design drafts.<br /> &quot;There is an obvious problem with the color ratio of the necklace you designed, and I didn&#039;t find anything particularly outstanding about it. Are you going to give this to the client?&quot;<br /> Anna was stunned because as Layla said, the client had rejected her design draft several times and said almost the same things as Layla&#039;s.<br /> It was strange. The client was patient and kept raising the price until Anna designed a work that satisfied the other party.<br /> Of course, Anna didn&#039;t think Layla knew about design. She thought they just happened to have the same idea. So she played with her newly made fingernails nonchalantly and responded perfunctorily.<br /> &quot;Ms. Lewis, I did it according to the client&#039;s requirements. There is nothing wrong with it.&quot;<br /> Layla used a pencil to circle Anna&#039;s mistakes on the design draft expressionlessly.<br /> &quot;The three-view drawing of your draft was wrong from the beginning. Look at the diamond in the middle, and there are many details, such as here...&quot;<br /> Hearing Layla use professional terminology, Anna gradually corrected her attitude. But she still felt that Layla only knew a little bit and couldn&#039;t be compared with her, the chief designer.<br /> &quot;Ms. Lewis, I think there is nothing wrong with my design. If you find any problem, please show me your true skills, and we can have a competition. Although you are our new president, the design industry is about strength. I have been a designer for many years, and only capable people can convince me.&quot;<br /> Layla smiled and took a blank piece of paper from under her desk.<br /> &quot;Okay, let&#039;s have a competition. Tell me, what are the client&#039;s requirements? On what occasion will he use this necklace?&quot;<br /> &quot;You&#039;re pretending to be something you&#039;re not!&quot; Anna sneered disdainfully, &quot;Okay, then I&#039;ll tell you the client&#039;s requirements to see how capable you are.&quot;<br /> Layla said nothing and raised her eyebrows, indicating for her to continue.<br /> &quot;The client will give this necklace to his first love. It should not only show the difficulty of their reunion but also reflect their pure and solid relationship. Based on these two requirements, we&#039;re asked to design a unique and stunning necklace.&quot; Anna paused and sneered, &quot;That&#039;s all. Ms. Lewis, please go ahead. But the client&#039;s request is so complicated. Can you understand it? Do you need me to elaborate on it?&quot;<br /> Layla took a piece of draft paper from the drawer and said, &quot;No need. Give me 10 minutes, and I can sketch out the necklace.&quot;<br /> Ten minutes? Even the most senior designers in the company couldn&#039;t guarantee that they could give an outline.<br /> But Layla said she could?<br /> Anna thought it was a joke.<br /> She was sure Layla would embarrass herself. So, Anna said with sarcasm, &quot;Then let&#039;s make an agreement. If you don&#039;t draw the design within 10 minutes or the design doesn&#039;t get the company&#039;s final approval, give up the position of director!&quot;<br /> <br /> Chapter 7<br /> Layla began to sketch. The smooth line gradually came out on the paper.<br /> She already had the proportions and the distribution of colors of the draft. So, she drew it smoothly without even the slightest pause.<br /> In less than 10 minutes, she finished the outline of the necklace.<br /> Layla put down the pencil and rubbed her stiff wrists.<br /> Although she was a bit rusty after not drawing design drafts for a long time, she was quite satisfied with the design.<br /> Then, Layla looked at Anna and said, &quot;I&#039;m done.&quot;<br /> Anna watched the whole process and couldn&#039;t help but feel secretly frightened.<br /> Layla&#039;s design style seemed very similar to that of a design master, but Anna couldn&#039;t remember who it was.<br /> But even though Layla had some skills, Anna would never admit that she was better than her!<br /> &quot;Done? What next? How do you prove that your design is better than mine and more aligned with the client&#039;s needs?&quot;<br /> Layla knew she would say that. So, she first put her draft and Anna&#039;s on the desk and then shouted outside, &quot;You all come in.&quot;<br /> Then, more than a dozen experienced designers in the company appeared in Layla&#039;s office.<br /> &quot;Ms. Lewis...&quot;<br /> Layla nodded slightly, pointed to the two design drafts, and said, &quot;These are the designs submitted by two designers who applied for jobs not long ago. Which do you think is better? Take a vote.&quot;<br /> &quot;Yes, Ms. Lewis.&quot;<br /> The designers thought Layla wanted to use this method to test their abilities, so everyone took it very seriously.<br /> Anna sneered, feeling that her draft was no worse than Layla&#039;s, and it was unclear who would win.<br /> Just when she was thinking, ten designers walked up to Layla&#039;s draft to vote for her.<br /> However, Anna had no vote.<br /> Layla had already anticipated this situation, and she looked calm.<br /> At this time, ten designers praised Layla&#039;s draft.<br /> &quot;This designer&#039;s design is brilliant and eye-catching. People will be deeply attracted at first sight.&quot;<br /> &quot;And I feel that this designer has a similar design style to AdoreWes&#039;. She appeared briefly three years ago.&quot;<br /> &quot;Yeah! I also remembered that AdoreWes has this design style, with bold yet unobtrusive colors. She is the model that the entire design field imitate.&quot;<br /> Anna suddenly thought of the great designer named AdoreWes.<br /> AdoreWes was indeed a terrific designer and a myth widely discussed in the design circle.<br /> But that was not important. The bottom line was that she lost to Layla zero to ten.<br /> She wondered about Layla&#039;s background.<br /> &quot;It turns out that my design is indeed better than yours. What do you think? Are you convinced?&quot; Layla looked at Anna with a half-smile.<br /> Anna&#039;s face instantly became extremely sullen. She bit her lips and said nothing.<br /> A designer suddenly said, &quot;Anna, I remembered your design draft had been rejected many times. It was rejected again this time?&quot;<br /> Layla raised her eyebrows slightly. &quot;Been rejected many times?&quot;<br /> It hurt a nerve, but Anna still refused to admit that she was not as good as Layla. She said coldly with a sulky face, &quot;So what if my draft has been rejected many times? Which designer can succeed one time? And you were just lucky this time. It doesn’t mean you can beat me next time!”<br /> Then, Anna grabbed the draft and left the office angrily.<br /> Only then did the 10 designers who had voted realize that the two design drafts belonged to Layla and Anna, not those who came to apply.<br /> After looking closely at Layla&#039;s design draft, a designer asked curiously, &quot;Ms. Lewis, your design style is so similar to AdoreWes&#039;. Do you know AdoreWes? Or is she your teacher?&quot;<br /> <br /> Chapter 8 <br /> Hearing her mention AdoreWes, Layla was absent-minded for a moment.<br /> AdoreWes, as the name suggested, meant admiring Wesley.<br /> Back then, Layla was crazy about Wesley. All the works of AdoreWes were designed with Wesley as inspiration.<br /> In Layla&#039;s opinion at that time, this was sweet and proof of her love for Wesley.<br /> But now... all this had become a joke.<br /> It was a past she no longer wanted to face, felt disgusting, and wanted to bury.<br /> Layla half-closed her eyes, her long and thick eyelashes hiding the emotions. After a while, she responded, &quot;I don&#039;t know AdoreWes, but I quite like her and have studied her design style for a while., so it’s normal for my design to be similar to hers.&quot;<br /> The designer nodded and said, &quot;I see. Ms. Lewis, you&#039;re very talented.&quot;<br /> Another designer said, &quot;Yes, Ms. Lewis, your design is great. I want to discuss some design techniques with you later.&quot;<br /> &quot;I also have many shortcomings. Ms. Lewis, please go to the design department to guide us some time.&quot;<br /> Layla agreed, &quot;No problem.&quot;<br /> The designers felt that Layla was not only capable but also very kind. They immediately started to like her.<br /> &quot;It&#039;s just a fluke that you beat me once. What&#039;s there to be proud of!&quot; Anna, secretly hiding outside the door, watched this scene and gritted her teeth in anger.<br /> Immediately afterward, she thought of something, rolled her eyes twice, and walked towards Gary&#039;s office with calculation.<br /> Gary, sitting in the office drinking coffee leisurely, saw Anna and broke into a laugh.<br /> &quot;Baby, why are you here?&quot;<br /> Anna walked over, sat on Gary&#039;s thigh, put her arms around his neck, and said softly, &quot;Mr. Cox, Layla embarrassed me so much just now. You have to do something. Otherwise, she will bully me.&quot;<br /> When Layla was mentioned, Gary also looked a little unhappy.<br /> &quot;A new broom sweeps clean. She won&#039;t be arrogant for too long. When I find an opportunity, I will deal with her.&quot;<br /> Anna acted coquettishly and said in Gary&#039;s ears, &quot;But Mr. Cox, I can&#039;t wait any longer and want to drive her out of this company immediately. She obviously doesn&#039;t like me and will make things difficult for me from now on!”<br /> After a two-second pause, Gary still didn&#039;t reply, and Anna played victim to gain sympathy.<br /> &quot;But since she could suddenly take the office and become the general manager, she must have a powerful background. Mr. Cox, if you find it hard to handle, forget it. It... it doesn&#039;t matter if I am treated badly. You don&#039;t have to consider me.&quot;<br /> Anna&#039;s eyes were red, and she looked pitiful, which made Gary feel very distressed. &quot;Anna, you are my baby, how can I let you be treated badly? What&#039;s more, she just pulled some strings to get the job. As long as I do something and make her make a major mistake at work, she will be immediately kicked out of the company.&quot;<br /> Anna was happy and moved closer to Gary. &quot;Do you have an idea?&quot;<br /> &quot;I haven&#039;t thought of a specific plan yet, but trust me. Don&#039;t worry. It won&#039;t take long before she will be kicked out of the company in the most embarrassing way.&quot; Gary looked confident.<br /> Anna thought of the employees who had been kicked out of the company by Gary before and felt that Layla&#039;s end would be even more miserable by then. Her face split into a triumphant smile.<br /> &quot;Mr. Cox, you are the best. Thanks for helping me.&quot;<br /> &quot;I have something better. Do you want to try it?&quot; Gary gave a lewd smile and started to touch Anna.<br /> Anna was very cooperative, wrapping her legs in stockings around Gary&#039;s waist.<br /> Gary pushed her onto the desk and took her stockings off...<br /> A hint of hostility crossed Anna&#039;s face.<br /> She thought, &quot;Layla, just wait. You won&#039;t laugh long.&quot;<br /> <br /> Chapter 9 <br /> It was at the office of the Whitman Group.<br /> Wesley&#039;s assistant Tom Walker got the design draft Layla had just submitted and hurried to the office to find Wesley.<br /> &quot;Mr. Whitman, maybe you have guessed right that the design master, AdoreWes, is in LayMaple Jewelry Design.&quot;<br /> &quot;Show me the draft!&quot; Wesley took the design draft from Tom.<br /> After looking at it carefully several times, Wesley found the style of this design draft was indeed very similar to AdoreWes&#039;.<br /> Paul curiously moved closer to take a look. When he saw the design draft clearly, his eyes widened suddenly.<br /> &quot;No way. You really got her? But why haven&#039;t you heard that AdoreWes is there?&quot;<br /> Wesley responded calmly, &quot;She hides herself.&quot;<br /> Paul gently rubbed his chin and said, &quot;AdoreWes doesn&#039;t want to show up, so what should we do?&quot;<br /> Wesley pondered for a while and said, &quot;The 8th of next month is Amber&#039;s birthday. I will invite many people over then. I will also invite the boss of LayMaple Jewelry Design over to inquire.&quot;<br /> Paul thought this was a good idea, but then he frowned as he thought of something.<br /> &quot;You don&#039;t really like Amber, do you? But she is indeed much better than your ex-wife and great in all aspects. She is talented and comes from a good family. If you get married, the Clark family will help you with your career. It seems to be good.&quot;<br /> Wesley glanced at Paul and said, &quot;I&#039;m just using her as a shield.&quot;<br /> Paul was puzzled. &quot;A shield? Why?&quot;<br /> &quot;Layla and I were forced to get married by my grandma. We don&#039;t have any feelings for each other. Instead of torturing each other, it&#039;s better to divorce.&quot; While talking, Wesley couldn&#039;t help but think of the name that Layla inadvertently mentioned and felt a little uncomfortable.<br /> Paul nodded and said, &quot;I see. But from what I saw in the bar, I don&#039;t think you have no feelings for Layla.&quot;<br /> However, Wesley&#039;s glare stopped him before he could finish his words.<br /> &quot;You saw wrong.&quot;<br /> Paul laughed and said, &quot;Fine. I won&#039;t say anything anymore.&quot;<br /> Wesley looked away from Paul and lowered his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking.<br /> Layla was browsing the Internet to check information and suddenly saw the news that Adrain had achieved great success in the project on the east side of the city.<br /> She smiled softly, feeling proud.<br /> Adrain was always awesome.<br /> Now that Adrian had achieved such great success in business, Layla planned to give him a gift.<br /> &quot;What should I give?&quot; She murmured.<br /> Layla gently rubbed his chin and thought for a long time, but she couldn&#039;t think of what to give.<br /> She decided to go to the mall after work.<br /> After getting off work, Layla came to the largest shopping mall in Bellcester and took the elevator into the men&#039;s accessories area.<br /> There were watches, belts, ties... Layla didn&#039;t know what to choose.<br /> She stood there and thought for a while. Considering that ties were often needed, she finally decided to buy Adrian a tie.<br /> Unexpectedly, as soon as Layla walked to the brand store selling ties, she heard a voice of contempt and ridicule.<br /> &quot;Ms. Lewis, are you... also going to pick out a tie? But now you don&#039;t seem to have anyone to give it to, right? Or did you find a man so quickly after leaving Mr. Whitman?&quot;<br /> Layla turned around and saw two people standing before her.<br /> One was Amber, who was wearing a white dress. The girl beside her was Amber&#039;s best friend, Melissa Anderson.<br /> Layla responded to Melissa in the same contemptuous tone, &quot;Excuse me, do we know each other? Does what I do have anything to do with you?&quot;<br /> &quot;I think you feel guilty and dare to say anything,&quot; Melissa sneered.<br /> Layla glanced at her and walked into the store without saying anything.<br /> Before she could enter, Melissa blocked her way.<br /> <br /> Chapter 10 <br /> &quot;Did you hear what I said? Or did you pretend not to understand my words? Ha, now I finally understand why Mr. Whitman dumped you. An uneducated person like you can&#039;t compare with Amber at all.&quot;<br /> Layla turned around and looked directly at Melissa. &quot;Do you mean a well-educated person should be like a mad dog? If so, congratulations, you won.&quot;<br /> &quot;You...&quot; Melissa was so angry that she wanted to say something more but was stopped by Amber.<br /> &quot;Melissa.&quot;<br /> When Melissa heard Amber&#039;s voice, she snorted coldly, said nothing more, and went back to Amber.<br /> Amber stepped forward with a soft smile on her face. She looked gentle and non-aggressive.<br /> &quot;Ms. Lewis, I&#039;m sorry. Melissa might have offended you. Don&#039;t mind it.&quot;<br /> Layla snorted, &quot;Of course, I won&#039;t mind it. After all, when a dog bites me, I can&#039;t bite it back.&quot;<br /> &quot;Who are you calling a dog?&quot; Melissa was almost going crazy.

Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 1089935765493063 🔥🔥 Click to Read 👉🏻👉🏻 &quot;Don&#039;t walk away from me, Zell,&quot; Kosta yelled.<br /> &quot;Why not? You don&#039;t need me. You have Khalis here to take care of all your needs. She is welcome to you. I hope you all will be very happy together. As for me, I&#039;m done. Good luck to you and this pack. I hope you can handle the fallout for you and your whore&#039;s actions.&quot;<br /> &quot;Mind how you talk to me, Zell. I may be your mate, but I am still the alpha. As a matter of fact, as of right now, I am stripping you of all of your luna privileges.&quot;<br /> I spat. &quot;You should know, you didn&#039;t deprive me of Luna&#039;s title, but I didn&#039;t want it myself. I no longer want it. As for the business, have you forgotten that I own 51% of every business we have? I will withdraw all of my personal finances from the pack.&quot;<br /> &quot;Oh, and Alpha, You, of all people, know how ruthless I can be if pushed.&quot;<br /> ————————<br /> &quot;Well Zel, I just wanted to let you know that I plan on being the Luna of this pack, and your days as Kosta&#039;s mate and luna are numbered. I have decided that I deserve to be luna of the third strongest pack in the nation. I mean why should you get everything and I get stuck with nothing?&quot; Khalis says.<br /> <br /> Is this bimbo serious? I just sat there staring at her for a few seconds. Not much shocks me, but this is something else. I knew Khalis was selfish, but this is on a whole other level. There have been rumors about Khalis sleeping with mated males, but I always gave her the benefit of the doubt. I never thought we would be having this kind of conversation. We have been friends since elementary school. Her father and brothers are elite warriors in my father&#039;s pack. She was with me when Kosta declared we were mates. She even encouraged me to go with him when he begged me and my father to let me come to his pack with him before I turned 18. She moved to this pack with me, hoping to meet her own mate. She knows Kosta is my fated mate. The moon goddess chose for him me. We both have known Kosta for most of our lives. Kosta is one of my brother&#039;s best friends. I keep thinking about everything we have done together and now this bimbo is sitting in my office telling me she plans to take my mate. I&#039;m really speechless. This is a new low, even for her.<br /> <br /> &quot;Just so that I am clear, what exactly do you mean that you want my goddess-given mate and title,&quot; I asked.<br /> <br /> &quot;I mean exactly what I said. I want Kosta. I want to be his luna and I am going to make that happen. I&#039;ve already started the process. I deserve to be a luna.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;So you just want to come in here and tell me that you want my mate? What about your own mate? Have you thought about that? If the goddess meant for you to be a luna, you would have been fated to an alpha.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I waited for my mate. I gave the goddess a chance to do right by me. She gave everyone around me an Alpha. My sister got one, my little ugly cousin got one and even you got one, but what did I get? I got a lowly elite warrior as a mate.&quot; She spat.<br /> <br /> &quot;How can you speak like that about elite warriors? Your father and your brother are elite warriors.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I know, and I deserve better than that. I deserve to be a luna. I deserve to have people respect me and cater to me.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Well, obviously the goddess did not agree with you,&quot; I said. &quot;Just to clarify, you&#039;re saying that even though you found your destined mate, the one that was made specifically for you by the goddess, you&#039;re still interested in my mate? You are unbelievable. What is wrong with you?&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;It&#039;s simple. I&#039;m not meant to be the mate of a warrior. I am meant to be a luna. The moon goddess got it wrong and I am correcting her mistake. As soon as I scented my fated mate and realized he was a warrior, I rejected him and he accepted my rejection. Good riddance.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;So you think you know better than the goddess?&quot; I asked.<br /> <br /> I am still somewhat shocked. I have a hard time reconciling this cold-blooded bimbo to the person that has been my best friend for over a decade.<br /> <br /> &quot;Zell, I told you a long time ago not to trust her. She has always been this person. She just pretended with you.&quot; Sapphire said.<br /> <br /> &quot;This isn&#039;t personal, Zell. It&#039;s simple since the moon goddess did not give me an alpha, I&#039;m going to take one.&quot;<br /> <br /> This bimbo is sitting here calmly telling me she is going to take my mate from me like we are talking about going shopping. She actually thinks this is ok. How could I have been so blind for so long? Everyone tried to warn me about her, but she was my only friend and I just didn&#039;t want to believe that about her. I convinced myself that the others were just jealous of her.<br /> <br /> &quot;Do you really think it is ok to try to break your best friend&#039;s mate bond?&quot; I say.<br /> <br /> &quot;Oh Honey, I&#039;m not going to try. I&#039;m going to do it. He will be mine. I&#039;m just giving you the courtesy of walking away with your dignity. You might as well start making arrangements for yourself because once I am the luna, there is no way that I will let you remain in my pack. He may keep some tender feelings for you. After all, you are fated.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You got one thing right; Kosta and I are fated. You are not the first she-wolf to try to break our mate bond and since he is an alpha, I&#039;m sure you won&#039;t be the last. I will tell you what I tell them all, If you can get Kosta to cheat on our bond, you can have him. If he can do that, then he is not the man I have believed him to be and wouldn&#039;t deserve me. You would be welcome to him. Just remember, it is because of me and my family that this pack is ranked third. All of that goes with me, but you would be more than welcome to whatever is left.&quot; I say.<br /> <br /> &quot;It&#039;s not an if, it&#039;s a when it happens. And when you leave, Kosta will still be the alpha of this pack. You will just be the ex-luna of the pack. I will be the luna.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;That&#039;s where you are wrong. I am alpha born; a pure-blooded alpha. If I leave, I will still be an alpha and you will still be that bimbo on the side. Some males may be dumb enough to sleep with you, but I have not seen any of the mate men you&#039;ve been accused of leaving their mates for you. Even the ones who got rejected didn&#039;t choose to be with you. Now I suggest you leave my office while I am still being nice or else you will find out why I am feared by others. And if you are successful, don&#039;t think for a minute that my family will let either of you go.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I will leave for now. Enjoy this office while it is still yours. Your arrogance will be your downfall. Why should I fear you or your family? They have not even been around since your luna ceremony. I&#039;ll give you 1 week to make arrangements for yourself. In 7 days, all of this will be mine and you will be out. I will break you and completely disgrace you. I have to thank you for working so hard to build this pack up for me to take over. I will be sure to enjoy the fruit of your labor. I and my children will enjoy this. I am glad he listened to me early on when I told him to wait to have children so you could live your life first. I had to set the groundwork just in case. Now it&#039;s time for you to go before you give him an heir.&quot; Khalis says and walks out of my office like nothing happened.<br /> <br /> She has caused a lot of chaos since coming to this pack. I just didn&#039;t realize her character before now. I thought she was misunderstood. Now I know I was just naïve. It appears that I was the only person blind to her true nature.<br /> <br /> I spent the rest of the day working on pack security and setting up meetings. There are a few alphas wanting an alliance with us. Kosta and I have become quite the power couple in the werewolf society. Since we took over as alpha and luna, the pack and the businesses have grown tremendously. I put my heart and soul into making our pack the best. I got an early start. I graduated from high school when I was 16 and went to university. I graduated with a business degree at 20. Kosta has let me take the lead in our businesses. He knows that beast at negotiation and a whiz at growing businesses. I have acquired several new companies since working in the pack business. Kosta is still the CEO, but I am the COO of the company. I broker the deals and then call Kosta in to close the deal. Most alphas in our circle are jealous of Kosta because he has me at his side. Kosta used to be proud of me and what I did for the pack, but lately he has been resisting the changes I have been making and trying to take over more of the daily operations of the pack. He can&#039;t take it all because I am the sole financial backing of the pack and the businesses.<br /> <br /> I am known in werewolf society as a child prodigy, but don&#039;t get it twisted, I am not all brains. I can be very deadly when needed. I train every day. I am one of the strongest wolves alive, although I keep that hidden. I can be ruthless, but fair. I know that I am the total package. I am athletic, tall with curves in the right places. I&#039;ve never been one to compete with other she-wolves. I thought I was happy and had a good life. I thought Khalis was happy. We used to talk about finding our fated mates. I just can&#039;t understand how or why Khalis would try to come between me and my mate. I wish I could believe that my bond was safe and solid, but Sapphire is right about Kosta acting suspiciously lately. Kosta has been questioning me a lot lately. It&#039;s like he woke up a different person one day. He suddenly lost trust in me, but I have never given him a reason to doubt me. I have found him outside of my door listening to business phone calls, which is crazy because he could just walk in at any time and join the conversation. I have never hidden anything I was doing from him. The worse thing is that our life is now nonexistent. Kosta is always too busy or too tired. His behavior has led me to believe that he is not attracted to me anymore. He had the nerve to ask me why I have been trying so hard to seduce him lately. Like he didn&#039;t just stop making love to me cold turkey all of a sudden. We went from making love every day, sometime multiple times a day, to nothing in over a month. Seems like he should have been worried if I didn&#039;t try to seduce him. I don&#039;t know any mated pair that has gone this long without being intimate with each other. I don&#039;t know what the issue is. If we were not marked, I would wonder if he was cheating, but I know he is not. I would have felt it. Why did all of this suddenly become so hard? Why do I even need to seduce my goddess-given mate? It was never supposed to be this way. At least not yet. I&#039;m only 20 years old. Much too young to be going through a dry spell while mated.<br /> <br /> I got so desperate at one time I asked our friends what was going on with him. Kosta tells his beta and gamma everything. I figured if there was a problem, they would tell me and I could fix it, but they just said that he was under a lot of stress. What exactly does he have to stress about? The pack is doing better than it has been in years. In half a year, the pack will be self-sufficient again and won&#039;t need to depend on my finances to keep it afloat. I have everything set in motion for the pack to have more disposable cash and residual income. I have a feeling this has Khalis written all over it. Kosta appears to have fallen in line with her already. Maybe this was their plan all along. Kosta needed me to get his pack back on track and now that they are almost completely independent, they don&#039;t need me anymore. If that&#039;s the case, they are in for a rude awakening. My six-month plan depends on me closing several more deals. All of these deals are allies with my father, uncle, and grandfather. They will not work with Kosta if our bond falls apart. He would erase everything that I have done over the past three years. Well, that would be his problem.<br /> <br /> I got so caught up in working and thinking; I didn&#039;t realize I worked up to dinner time. No one called me for lunch. In fact, no one called me for dinner. That is strange. One of the omegas usually checks on me when I am working too much and makes sure I am eating. I guess everyone is following Kosta. Since he has not been showing me any care, they are not either. That really hurts. I sacrificed a lot for this pack. I thought they cared more than this for me. I should just go back to my room. I don&#039;t know if I want to be around this pack right now, especially if they could turn their backs on me this quickly. Were they all just using me for my family&#039;s wealth?<br /> <br /> &quot;We need to eat Zell. Remember, we are eating for our pup as well. Don&#039;t let them win. We are better than this. If they show us they don&#039;t want us here, we will leave. Remember, we are alpha born. We will rise above this. We will go back to where we are celebrated. If they turn against us, they don&#039;t deserve us. We will sit back and let them destroy themselves.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You are right Sapphire. Let&#039;s go eat. Our pup needs sustenance.&quot;<br /> <br /> I went and cleaned myself up and walked to the dining room. As soon as I walked through the door, all the talking stopped. The whole place went silent. As I walked all the way in, I saw why everyone went silent. Khalis was sitting in my seat, putting food on Kosta&#039;s plate like she is the luna. When she saw me, she just smirked and kept doing what she was doing. Kosta just keep eating like I was not standing there. Sapphire stared, pushing forward. She wanted blood. I did too, but I have to think about our pup.<br /> <br /> &quot;What is going on, Kosta? Why is she sitting in my seat feeding you?&quot; I growled.<br /> <br /> &quot;I meant no harm, Zell. You were busy, so I decided to take care of Kosta for you. Someone needs to care for him while you are caring for other things. &quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;I was speaking to my mate, not his bimbo on the side.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;You were not here for your mate, so I have been taking care of his needs.&quot;<br /> <br /> Sapphire pushed forward and growled loudly. Everyone in the room bowed their neck to her.<br /> <br /> &quot;I could kill you in less than 30 seconds, Khalis. I would advise you not to keep crossing my line and you will find yourself very dead. You obviously have forgotten who I am. Don&#039;t make me remind you what my family name is,&quot; Sapphire said.<br /> <br /> I regained control and looked at Kosta. He didn&#039;t even appear to be concerned. He didn&#039;t show an ounce of regret or remorse. That took a little of the fight out of me. Khalis can only do what Kosta allows her to do.<br /> <br /> &quot;Kosta, I asked you a question. What is going on?&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;As Khalis said, you were busy, so she came to do your job for you. If you spent more time catering to me, your mate, and less time working or whatever you are doing, Khalis wouldn&#039;t have to step in and take care of my needs.&quot; Kosta said.<br /> <br /> I and every pack member gasped. I could not believe he openly disrespected me like that after everything I have done for him and this pack. I did all of that for him. This ungrateful hip.<br /> <br /> &quot;So now I&#039;m working too much, making your pack financially secure? You were not complaining when the pack was bankrupted and I worked day and night just so you could feed the pack another day. I was working too hard then. It&#039;s only now that you think the pack is out of the woods that I am working too hard. Now that everyone is comfortable and not at risk of starving, you want to change. Ok, I see who you are now. So instead of appreciating the sacrifices I made for us and the pack, you are sitting here with your bimbo, enjoying the feast that my hard work made possible. I am glad I finally understand where your priorities lie. Trust me, I will never make the same mistake twice.&quot; I said and walked away.<br /> <br /> I need to get out of here before I wolf out and kill one of them. After tonight, Khalis can have him. He is not the male I thought he was. I refuse to fight for someone who can spit on all the effort I put into making him great.<br /> <br /> &quot;Don&#039;t walk away from me, Zell,&quot; Kosta yelled.<br /> <br /> &quot;Why not? You don&#039;t need me. You have Khalis here to take care of all your needs. She is welcome to you. I hope you all will be very happy together. As for me, I&#039;m done. Good luck to you and this pack. I hope you can handle the fallout for you and your bimbo&#039;s actions.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Mind how you talk to me, Zell. I may be your mate, but I am still the alpha. As a matter of fact, as of right now, I am stripping you of all of your luna privileges.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Alpha, what are you doing?&quot; Beta James asked<br /> <br /> &quot;Mind your business Beta. This is my pack.&quot; Kosta says.<br /> <br /> &quot;Yes, and as your beta and friend, it is my job to tell you when you are making a mistake. Alpha, you are dangerously close to crossing the line of no return. Let&#039;s all calm down and discuss this later.&quot; Beta James said.<br /> <br /> &quot;Beta, my word stands. Zel, until you learn to respect me as your alpha, you can forget about representing this pack in any aspect. I will be instructing the security team to restrict all of your access. You are no longer the COO of our businesses. As of now, you are just a regular pact member with no power.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;First of all Alpha.&quot; I spat. &quot;Respect is earned. While you are trying to throw your weight around, you can have the luna title back. I no longer want it. As for the business, have you forgotten that I own 51% of every business we have? I also provide 60% of the pack budget from my personal accounts. So while you can restrict my duties as Luna, you cannot touch the business, but I&#039;ll do you a solid. You can buy me out of the business and I will withdraw all of my personal finances from the pack.&quot;<br /> <br /> I can see that he had forgotten how dependent his pack was on me, but oh well. He made his bed. Now he and his bimbo can lie in it.<br /> <br /> &quot;Oh, and Alpha, if you try to strong-arm me, I will have to call in the full loan that I gave this pack when we mated. Remember, we signed a contract for the loan. You have only paid me a small portion of the loan and I have not pushed the issue, but the contract is legal and binding. Don&#039;t push me, Kosta. You, of all people, know how ruthless I can be if pushed.&quot;<br /> <br /> I walked off again and made it as far as the stairs. I realized that I could not stay in my current room anymore. There is no way on this goddess-green earth that I want to be in a room with Kosta. Not that he has really shared it with me lately. Now I know why. Khalis has been feeding him and he has been eating it up. They both miscalculated. They thought I would be leaving here with nothing. The jokes on them. I may have been in love, but there is no love in business. I may have put my all into saving this pack and making it independently wealthy, but my parents did not raise a fool and I protected my finances. I invested millions in this company and pack. Did he really think I would protect my money? Does he not remember the prenup my father made him sign since I was a minor when he brought me to this pack? He never gained control over my finances.<br /> <br /> Khalis just showed her hand. After what I just saw, she has a right to be confident. Kosta has completely changed. He is not the man that I mated. He is not the boy that I followed around when I was younger. I don&#039;t know what happened or when he changed. Maybe this is who he really is and, like with Khalis, I just never saw his true self. He must have hidden it from my father and brother as well. There is no way they would have let me come here when I was 17 if they knew this was how he would end up treating me. I can see now that it is over between Kosta and me. I need to start planning my exit. I pulled up my computer and moved all of my finances from the pack accounts. I closed all the joint accounts I had with Kosta. It was mostly my money that financed them. I left the ones that he financed in his name. I don&#039;t want anything from him at all. After I handle business, I call my brother. I will need his help to leave here safely. Now that Kosta knows that all the money is still tied up with me, I doubt he will let me leave easily. I&#039;m sure he and the bimbo are plotting up something.<br /> <br /> I called my brother and tall him waht happened.<br /> <br /> &quot;So what&#039;s the plan, baby sis?&quot; my brother answered.<br /> <br /> &quot;Well, I have already moved all of my personal money from the pack accounts. They are now responsible for themselves. I&#039;m not sure how that is going to go over. I was covering most of the pack&#039;s budget. Tomorrow, I will contact my attorneys to protect all of my other assets. I also plan to call our allies and let them know that I am no longer associated with the pack. I am erasing everything I&#039;ve done over the past three years. They will need to start over from scratch and rebuild it all on their own. There is no way they will get to enjoy my hard work. No, sir.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Very smart Zell.

Yes 2024-02-18 11:59 active 189 0 359859590332430 🔥🔥 Click to Read 👉🏻👉🏻 &quot;let&#039;s get this over. &quot;I, Trevor Monroe, future alpha of Blue Moon pack, reject you as my mate and Luna.&quot;<br /> &quot;Trevor, you don&#039;t deserve me, I Seleste True, Pure Born Gamma, Descendant of Fenroe accept your rejection.&quot;<br /> ******** <br /> As I&#039;m lying here thinking about all of this, Tamaska starts jumping around in my mind. Like literally jumping around. She seems so excited all of a sudden. I look up and see Trevor standing over me, looking at me strangely. At first, he seems happy to see me, then his expression changes. I guess he remembers that we are no longer friends. Meanwhile, Tamaska is still going crazy in my head. Trevor and Tamaska say the one word I never wanted to hear in reference to Trevor. They both yell &quot;mate&quot;. No, this can&#039;t be. I can&#039;t be his mate. This will never work. Now I&#039;m panicking. I can see on his face that he is going to reject me. This is not the way my life is supposed to go. Oh, moon goddess, give me the strength to be strong and not break down.<br /> Trevor just stands there for a minute, then says, &quot;let&#039;s get this over. &quot;I, Trevor Monroe, future alpha of Blue Moon pack, reject you as my mate and Luna.&quot;<br /> As soon as he said those words, I felt a pain like I have never experienced before. It&#039;s like my heart has been ripped apart. Tamaska starts whimpering. Trevor made my wolf cry. Why would he do this?<br /> &quot;Why?&quot; I ask. As much as I hate him seeing me cry, tears are running down her eyes. &quot;Why would you do this to us? Why would you take away our chance to be happy? Do you really hate me that much?&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s not about me hating you, Seleste.&quot; He says, &quot;The mate bond will not let me hate you. I just don&#039;t think you are the right person to be my Luna. You are a good Gamma. Fighting is what you do, but I need someone else lying beside me. Not someone who will undermine me or make me look bad in front of the pack warriors. I just can&#039;t have you as my mate. I don&#039;t want you as my mate.&quot;<br /> I can&#039;t believe my mate is saying this to me. It&#039;s like he really wants to hurt me. He is saying that he prefers someone else over me, his mate. Tamaska has not stopped whimpering. She is so hurt by what our mate is saying. Although I knew this was coming, the pain was unbearable.<br /> &quot;Are you sure this is what you want, Trevor? Do you want to think about this before you make a final decision?&quot; I ask in a whisper.<br /> &quot;Don&#039;t beg Seleste, it&#039;s really not becoming. It should be no surprise that I rejected you. I made it known over this past year that I do not want you in my life. Yes, I am sure. I do not want you as my mate. My rejection stands!&quot; <br /> Did he just say stop begging? The nerve of him. I would never beg anyone to be with me. He wishes I was begging him. How is he going to feel when he finds out that I get a second chance mate while he is stuck without a mate? I don&#039;t need to beg. <br /> &quot;Begging, the last thing I&#039;m doing is begging. I have never begged and trust me; you are the last person I would ever beg to be in my life. Out of respect to your father, I have kept my opinion to myself about you and the way you are acting, but truthfully, Trevor, you are a disappointment. I don&#039;t know what your parents or the pack will do when they find out what you have done, but since this is what you want and since frankly, you don&#039;t deserve me, I Seleste True, Pure Born Gamma, Descendant of Fenroe accept your rejection.&quot; I say and begin to walk away. I need to get away from him. It is taking everything in me to hold Tamaska back. She really wants to kick his butt right now.<br /> &quot;Before you go, I order you not to tell anyone about us being mates,&quot; Trevor says in his alpha voice.<br /> Is he serious right now? Does he really not know that the alpha command does not work on our family? He really is not fit to lead our pack. He obviously did not pay attention in his alpha training, or he would know it is pointless to alpha command me. I will tell who I want to tell. I just look at him in disgust and walk away. As much as I want to break down and cry for hours, I refuse to let him see me cry more than he already has. I hold my head up high and walk away from him. The moon goddess granted me my request. I feel strong and I could keep myself together. At least until I get home. <br /> Once I make it to my house, I run to my mom and cry my eyes out. My mom keeps asking me what&#039;s wrong. My dad comes in and tries to talk to me, but I can&#039;t stop crying enough to talk to them. I can&#039;t say the words. At least not yet. My mom calls Mona to come to be with me and to help calm me down. After crying for about an hour, I&#039;m finally ready to tell my family what happened. Wiping my eyes, I begin the story of my life right now.<br /> &quot;I don&#039;t know where to start. I&#039;ll try to keep it simple. Tamaska was feeling restless, so I went to the clearing the grandmother used to take me to. As I was basking in the moon, Trevor walked into the clearing.&quot; I see my mom and dad stiffen when I mention Trevor&#039;s name. Mona just looks at me with concern. I think she knows what I&#039;m about to tell them.<br /> &quot;It turns out that I am Trevor&#039;s mate,&quot; I say with a sigh.<br /> &quot;I don&#039;t understand,&quot; my dad says, &quot;if you found your mate tonight, why are you crying? Did something happen to you or Trevor?&quot;<br /> &quot;Dad, Trevor rejected me.&quot; My family has the same shocked look I had.<br /> &quot;Are you serious,&quot; my mom and Mona say at the same time.<br /> My dad is steaming mad right now. I&#039;m afraid of what he will do. Trevor hurt his baby. This may not end well for Trevor. When my dad is angry, even the alpha stays out of his way. My mom and I are the only ones that can calm him down.<br /> &quot;Yes, I&#039;m serious. He said that I was not Luna material, and he did not want me as his mate or the right Luna for this pack.&quot; I explained to my family.<br /> &quot;Trevor is an idiot,&quot; Mona says. &quot;There is no one more suited to be our Luna. You have always put this pack first. You have always worked to make us better and stronger.&quot;<br /> &quot;I know. Mona, it hurts so bad. My own mate does not want me. To make matters worse, he tried to alpha command me not to tell anyone that we are mates.&quot;<br /> &quot;What!&quot; my dad yells. &quot;I need to go find this pup and teach him a lesson. No one hurts my baby and lives to talk about. Who does he think he is? He is obviously not fit to lead. He doesn&#039;t even know our pack&#039;s history. Every alpha knows that our family is not subject to any alpha. We serve out of choice, we submit out of respect, not out of compulsion. Our family has served this pack for generations, and I have never questioned that choice until now. This pack is not worth the pain it is causing my baby. First, I&#039;m going to teach that brat a lesson, and then we are transferring to a different pack where they respect and appreciate us.&quot;<br /> &quot;Baby calm down.&quot; My mom says to my dad. &quot;Let&#039;s focus on our baby girl for now. What do you want to do, Seleste?&quot;<br /> &quot;I really don&#039;t know, momma. I don&#039;t want to run like a coward. He is not worth us turning our lives upside down. Besides, I will be traveling a lot after school anyway, so I will rarely see him. And dad, if you hurt Trevor, I may ruin your friendship with Alpha Connor. I&#039;m sure he does not know what Trevor did. And No dad, I don&#039;t want you to tell him. I don&#039;t want anyone to know that Trevor was my mate. Grandmother told me that if one of us gets rejected by our mate, the moon goddess will bless us with a second chance mate. While I don&#039;t want another mate right now, there is still hope for me in the future. Right now, I just want to get through the end of the school year.&quot;<br /> &quot;Ok baby girl, if this is what you want, your father and I will support your decision. But remember, you are my daughter. You will not sit around and mope about that pup. I will give you one full day to cry and be sad, then I want you to pick yourself up and start moving forward. It may still hurt, but it will not destroy you.&quot;<br /> &quot;Thanks, mom,&quot; I say, hugging my parents. &quot;You always know what to say.<br /> &quot;You are my favorite daughter; I will always be there for you in this life and the next.&quot;<br /> &quot;Mom, I&#039;m your only daughter,&quot; I say with a smile.<br /> &quot;And don&#039;t you forget it,&quot; my mom says.<br /> My family spent the rest of the night talking, listening, and wiping my tears. I am so glad I have them in my life. My mom is right. I will not wallow in sadness over Trevor. He has proven that he is not worthy of me. He made his choice and now I am free. I will be able to move on. He thought he would break me, but I won&#039;t break. I go to my room and grab my journal and begin to write. I just let all my hurt, anger, and disappointments release on paper. Writing poetry has always been my outlet. Speaking of poetry, I think I will ask the girls to go to Jazzy&#039;s tomorrow night.<br /> As I lie in bed, I start to feel this burning feeling in my stomach. I feel like someone is clawing my stomach from the inside. I have a high pain tolerance, but this is unbearable. I yell out in pain. My mom and dad run into my room when they hear me cry out. I tell my mom about the pain in my stomach. My dad gets mad all over again. They don&#039;t want to tell me what&#039;s going on. Mom says I&#039;m better not knowing. Tamaska is howling in my head. She has been quiet since Trevor rejected us, but now she is balled up in a knot, howling and crying. I know this has to be about Trevor. He made my wolf cry twice. I will never forgive him for that. She does not deserve to be hurt like this.<br /> &quot;T what&#039;s wrong? What&#039;s happening? Mom and dad will not tell me.&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s mate, he is being intimate with another she-wolf.&quot; Tamaska cries. &quot;He really does not want us, and he is already with someone else. Seleste, I can&#039;t handle this right now. I&#039;m going to take a break from this. I&#039;ll still be with you, but I&#039;m going into a deep sleep, at least for now, don&#039;t worry, I&#039;m not going away and I won&#039;t be down long. I just need a little time.&quot;<br /> &quot;It&#039;s ok T. I love you and I will be here for you.&quot; I sent T a hug. I wish I could hold and pet her right now.<br /> &quot;Mom, Dad, Trevor made my wolf cry twice. I will never forgive him for that. She did not deserve that. T told me what this pain is. There is no coming back from this. He has truly sealed our fates and our future. I am done with him. If I had it in me to hate anyone, I would definitely hate Trevor.&quot;<br /> &quot;Like your mom said, baby girl, we will support you no matter what. You deserve better. I will stay out of it and let you handle it for now, but if he hurts you again, I will have to step in. There is no way I or my wolf can stand by and let someone hurt my pup. I don&#039;t care who it is.&quot;<br /> We all walked out of the house and headed to the venue for the party. <br /> &quot;I would like to thank everyone for being here tonight to celebrate the 18th birthday of the circle of ten, our next generation of the leaders of the pack. I&#039;m sure that together, the ten will continue to move our pack to greater things.&quot; The alpha says. He announces all the mate connections in our group of ten. The pack is so happy for the mates, the alpha can barely get a word in. Finally, the crowd calms down, and the alpha announces Trevor and his fake mate. I look at my dad and shake my head as the alpha speaks. I don&#039;t want my dad to lose it and tell the pack that Trevor rejected me. <br /> &quot;And finally, I would like to announce that my son, your future alpha, has also found his mate, Shana. Show them all some love.&quot; <br /> The crowd goes wild again. Nobody knows that they are a fraud, so they are happy to have what they think is the next alpha and luna.<br /> The alpha goes on to tell the pack about the mating ceremony planned for all the mates that will happen next Saturday on a full moon. The alpha tells all the still unmated wolves to let Beta Vareen know if they find their mates before the ceremony, so they can be included.<br /> The alpha tells us he has one more announcement. Yep, He will be retiring, and Trevor will take over as alpha- There goes the pack. <br /> &quot;As it is our tradition, I will turn it over to Trevor to officially announce the next Beta and Gamma of the pack; Trevor.&quot; Alpha Connor says and steps back to his spot next to the luna. <br /> &quot;Hello everyone,&quot; Trevor says. From the time alpha announced that Trevor will take over, he has been smirking at me.<br /> &quot;I hope you all had a good time tonight. I know I did. The Blue Moon pack knows how to throw a party. Let me start by introducing you all to my mate and your future Luna, Shana Stevens.&quot;<br /> Everyone cheers for their pretend Luna. Trevor is looking at me to see if I react, which I don&#039;t. <br /> &quot;And your next Gamma, Mona True&quot; <br /> I think everyone here is in complete shock. I froze in my spot. Alpha Connor tried to run interference and stop Trevor before he takes this too far, but of course, Trevor didn&#039;t listen. <br /> &quot;Son, what are you doing?&quot; Alpha Connor asked, &quot;Seleste is the next Gamma.&quot;<br /> &quot;No, Dad,&quot; Trevor answers him. &quot;I don&#039;t think Seleste is the right one for the position. Seleste has done nothing but undermine my authority in the pack for the last year. As alpha, I can&#039;t have anyone under me who does not respect my position as head of the pack. I want Mona as my Gamma. I think that is best for the pack.&quot; <br /> &quot;Dad, my mate, and I discussed this. Aside from the fact that Seleste does not respect me or my position, it is common knowledge that Seleste is in love with me. My mate does not feel that Seleste will have her best interest at heart. My mate does not feel safe with Seleste, being in charge of our safety and security. As her mate, I have to put her first and protect her peace of mind. Seleste being here affects her peace negatively and I can&#039;t have that.&quot;<br /> I notice my dad is about to lose control. I need to get to him before things go completely left. To defuse the situation and give Trevor what he wants and hopefully stop this drama, I agree that I don&#039;t need the Gamma title. <br /> &quot;Fine,&quot; I tell Trevor. &quot;Gamma is just a title. I don&#039;t need it. Not having the title does not change who I am. I will still train the warrior and fulfill my other obligations. As far as respecting you Trevor, respect is earned, and up until recently, I thought you deserved my respect. You have shown me over the last couple of days that I was mistaken about you. So, you can keep the Gamma position. I don&#039;t want it. As far as being in love with you. That is laughable. I don&#039;t even like you.&quot; <br /> He actually smirks at me. This fool thinks he has won. He is just sad.<br /> &quot;Well, that is settled. Seleste will not be the next gamma. And since you mentioned training the pact, that&#039;s the other thing. I do not want you training my warriors anymore. Since you are mad that you are not the Luna of this pack, how do I know you won&#039;t influence the warriors against me or continue to undermine my authority?&quot;<br /> So that is his game plan. He wants to withdraw me of all power. Does he really not realize who I am? Everything my family has done for this pack. Now I&#039;m slightly pissed, but I need to try to stay in control so that my father doesn&#039;t kill this fool.<br /> &quot;Are you serious right now, Trevor? I have done nothing but make this pack better. I have spent my life learning and training so that I can strengthen this pack, and you want to take that from me because of your pettiness.&quot; <br /> I let Trevor know that he really does not have the authority to take the training position from me. I train packs under the authority of the council. No Alpha&#039;s word is above that of the council. But since he wants to be petty, I can take my strength, skill, and protection to another pack.<br /> &quot;Save it Seleste, I have made my decision. As of now, you are nothing to this pack. Why don&#039;t you find another pack to train, since you mentioned other packs? We don&#039;t want you here.&quot;<br /> &quot;Gladly,&quot; I tell him. &quot;And when I leave, you will take the full brunt of your decisions and the consequences of what you are doing tonight.&quot;<br /> I am so over these things now. This pack needs my family more than I need this. I can leave and be accepted into any pack in the kingdom, including the royal pack.<br /> Ben and the other warrior begin to speak up for me. That appears to make Trevor even more pissed. Right now, his own father and current alpha is looking at him like he has completely lost his mind and he is standing in front of the pack looking proud. I always thought Trevor was pretty intelligent. Now I think there is something wrong with him. He just will not stop digging himself into a hole. <br /> &quot;See, that&#039;s why I need to restrict Seleste of her power,&quot; Trevor says in anger and frustration. <br /> &quot;The warriors are more loyal to her than they are to me. You all need to respect me. I am the alpha. What I say goes. None of you have my permission to leave. If you choose to leave, you will be rogues. Will you throw everything away just for her?&quot;<br /> I am so proud of my Elite 12 members.
