"I, Trevor Monroe, future alpha of Blue Moon pack, reject you as my mate and Luna."<br /> "Trevor, you don't deserve me, I Seleste True, Pure Born Gamma, Descendant of Fenroe accept your rejection."<br /> ******** <br /> As I'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 "mate". No, this can't be. I can't be his mate. This will never work. Now I'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, "let's get this over. "I, Trevor Monroe, future alpha of Blue Moon pack, reject you as my mate and Luna."<br /> As soon as he said those words, I felt a pain like I have never experienced before. It's like my heart has been ripped apart. Tamaska starts whimpering. Trevor made my wolf cry. Why would he do this?<br /> "Why?" I ask. As much as I hate him seeing me cry, tears are running down her eyes. "Why would you do this to us? Why would you take away our chance to be happy? Do you really hate me that much?"<br /> "It's not about me hating you, Seleste." He says, "The mate bond will not let me hate you. I just don'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't have you as my mate. I don't want you as my mate."<br /> I can't believe my mate is saying this to me. It'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 /> "Are you sure this is what you want, Trevor? Do you want to think about this before you make a final decision?" I ask in a whisper.<br /> "Don't beg Seleste, it'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!" <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't need to beg. <br /> "Begging, the last thing I'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'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't deserve me, I Seleste True, Pure Born Gamma, Descendant of Fenroe accept your rejection." 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 /> "Before you go, I order you not to tell anyone about us being mates," 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's wrong. My dad comes in and tries to talk to me, but I can't stop crying enough to talk to them. I can'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'm finally ready to tell my family what happened. Wiping my eyes, I begin the story of my life right now.<br /> "I don't know where to start. I'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." I see my mom and dad stiffen when I mention Trevor's name. Mona just looks at me with concern. I think she knows what I'm about to tell them.<br /> "It turns out that I am Trevor's mate," I say with a sigh.<br /> "I don't understand," my dad says, "if you found your mate tonight, why are you crying? Did something happen to you or Trevor?"<br /> "Dad, Trevor rejected me." My family has the same shocked look I had.<br /> "Are you serious," my mom and Mona say at the same time.<br /> My dad is steaming mad right now. I'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 /> "Yes, I'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." I explained to my family.<br /> "Trevor is an idiot," Mona says. "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."<br /> "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."<br /> "What!" my dad yells. "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't even know our pack'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'm going to teach that brat a lesson, and then we are transferring to a different pack where they respect and appreciate us."<br /> "Baby calm down." My mom says to my dad. "Let's focus on our baby girl for now. What do you want to do, Seleste?"<br /> "I really don't know, momma. I don'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'm sure he does not know what Trevor did. And No dad, I don't want you to tell him. I don'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'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."<br /> "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."<br /> "Thanks, mom," I say, hugging my parents. "You always know what to say.<br /> "You are my favorite daughter; I will always be there for you in this life and the next."<br /> "Mom, I'm your only daughter," I say with a smile.<br /> "And don't you forget it," 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'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'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't want to tell me what's going on. Mom says I'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 /> "T what's wrong? What's happening? Mom and dad will not tell me."<br /> "It's mate, he is being intimate with another she-wolf." Tamaska cries. "He really does not want us, and he is already with someone else. Seleste, I can't handle this right now. I'm going to take a break from this. I'll still be with you, but I'm going into a deep sleep, at least for now, don't worry, I'm not going away and I won't be down long. I just need a little time."<br /> "It's ok T. I love you and I will be here for you." I sent T a hug. I wish I could hold and pet her right now.<br /> "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."<br /> "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't care who it is."<br /> We all walked out of the house and headed to the venue for the party. <br /> "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'm sure that together, the ten will continue to move our pack to greater things." 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't want my dad to lose it and tell the pack that Trevor rejected me. <br /> "And finally, I would like to announce that my son, your future alpha, has also found his mate, Shana. Show them all some love." <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 /> "As it is our tradition, I will turn it over to Trevor to officially announce the next Beta and Gamma of the pack; Trevor." Alpha Connor says and steps back to his spot next to the luna. <br /> "Hello everyone," Trevor says. From the time alpha announced that Trevor will take over, he has been smirking at me.<br /> "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."<br /> Everyone cheers for their pretend Luna. Trevor is looking at me to see if I react, which I don't. <br /> "And your next Gamma, Mona True" <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't listen. <br /> "Son, what are you doing?" Alpha Connor asked, "Seleste is the next Gamma."<br /> "No, Dad," Trevor answers him. "I don'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'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." <br /> "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't have that."<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't need the Gamma title. <br /> "Fine," I tell Trevor. "Gamma is just a title. I don'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't want it. As far as being in love with you. That is laughable. I don't even like you." <br /> He actually smirks at me. This fool thinks he has won. He is just sad.<br /> "Well, that is settled. Seleste will not be the next gamma. And since you mentioned training the pact, that'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't influence the warriors against me or continue to undermine my authority?"<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'm slightly pissed, but I need to try to stay in control so that my father doesn't kill this fool.<br /> "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." <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'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 /> "Save it Seleste, I have made my decision. As of now, you are nothing to this pack. Why don't you find another pack to train, since you mentioned other packs? We don't want you here."<br /> "Gladly," I tell him. "And when I leave, you will take the full brunt of your decisions and the consequences of what you are doing tonight."<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 /> "See, that's why I need to restrict Seleste of her power," Trevor says in anger and frustration. <br /> "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?"<br /> I am so proud of my Elite 12 members. We always stand for what is right.<br /> "I don't know about the others," Tim said, "But I would rather go, rogue than stay in this pack with you as the alpha. As Gamma Seleste said, respect is earned, and I just lost all that of it I had for you. Sorry, Alpha Connor, I cannot serve your son. I will prepare to leave this pack in the next two hours." Tim said.

You're sleeping with my bestie Jade?! The both of you make me sick!” Lily shouts. She could no longer keep her cool.<br /> "Listen to me, Lily." Tim begs.<br /> Lily ignores him.<br /> After leaving the villa, Lily goes to a bar.<br /> "Well, I only want the most expensive and most handsome man to accompany me." Lily said to the manager.<br /> ****** <br /> It is 9 p.m. on rainy day. On such a cool autumn night, Lily stands in front of the villa without an umbrella, the clothes on shoulder getting soaked by the rain. She doesn’t pay it any mind though and keeps the present under her arm carefully wrapped with her coat.<br /> Today is Lily and Tim’s first anniversary. Lily is supposed to be at her mother's house, but she secretly bought a gift to surprise Tim.<br /> As she walks to the door, her clothes get completely soaked. She takes the key from her pocket out and opens the door carefully. Without turning on the light, she stands at the porch and changes her shoes. As she takes off her shoes, she sees a pair of red high-heeled shoes on the floor.<br /> Lily is shocked, because she knows that those are clearly not her shoes; she can tell be the size.<br /> The heart feels like it is being grabbed by a pair of invisible hands. Lily puts the gift in her arms on the ground and walks slowly towards the bedroom on the second floor.<br /> The closer she gets, the clearer the conversation becomes—<br /> “Oh, Tim...”<br /> A familiar female voice penetrates her eardrum; she is enjoying herself quite a bit.<br /> “I know that is how like it,” the man replies. That is without question Tim’s voice.<br /> In the corridor outside the door, Lily feels like she is walking on the edge of a knife with every step. Even if she can't see what's going on inside, the intensity of the voices paint a vivid picture in her mind of what is happening.<br /> “Who do you like better, Lily or me,” the woman suddenly asks. This makes Lily's heart drop into her stomach.<br /> “Are you getting jealous? I am only focused on you baby. How can I even think of her when I have you?” Lily’s heart breaks into a million pieces.<br /> Lily thinks to herself, nobody believed that her husband had never touched from when they started dating into now. Tim had said that he couldn’t do it. But now, here he is making love with her best friend.<br /> Lily feels that she is a heroine in a Tennessee Williams’ play. Now that she is facing her greatest fear, she can’t bear to open the door until they finish. Lilly enters the room and see the two of them lying in the bed.<br /> What makes it all the worse is that the person Tim is with is her best friend Jade.<br /> Jade has been her best friend since high school. Lily thought to herself, how could Jade do this to me?<br /> Lily suddenly recalls that every time she goes back to her mother's house, Jade always asks about how long she will be gone, but never accompanies her. The reason is much clearer to Lily now. She feels humiliated.<br /> Obviously, the two in bed don't expect Lily, who should be at her mother's house, to be here. For a moment, Tim tries to keep calm shouts at Jade, “Get out.”<br /> Lily has never been a short-tempered person. But, this time, she can't hide the anger in her chest. She glances at the hot kettle on the table, picks it up and throws it at the strange man and woman on the bed. “The both of you make me sick!” Lily shouts.<br /> Jade brazenly responds, “Lily, you should think about it from Tim’s point of view. The two of you haven’t been intimate in over a year.” Lily realizes that Jade doesn’t feel any guilt at all.<br /> “Oh, god,” Lily sneers, “I guess I should thank you Jade for taking care of my husband then.” Lily, getting angrier and angrier, continues, “I always treated you as more than a friend and this is how you treat me in return! You couldn’t get own husband, so I guess you had to take mine!”<br /> Lily has never been so pointblank with anyone before. Tim looks at her and says, “You need to get out of here.”<br /> “Don't worry, I won’t stay here anymore than I have to,” Lily responds. Lily can’t even bear to look at them and says, “Tim, you can explain this to my parents and your parents. I am tired of always having to explain your actions.”<br /> They have been married for over a year. On their wedding night, Tim had told her that he couldn’t have a intercourse. She had thought maybe he was scared and that once they got more comfortable with each other he wouldn’t have any issues. Her mother-in-law had been asking her why they didn't have children. Lily hadn’t said anything. Her mother-in-law asked if she had any physical problems. Lily had lied to cover for Tim, but this just caused friction between her and her mother-in-law. Lily now feels that she was so stupid for doing that now.<br /> But, even as Lily threatens him, Tim doesn't show any emotion, not even a frown. In all their years together, Lily had been the one that pursued the relationship. Lily had always been very forgiving of him and she would always come back to him no matter what he did.<br /> However, enough was enough. Lily could no longer keep her cool and said,<br /> “Let's get divorced.”<br /> After leaving the villa, Lily goes out to find a taxi. She wanders around the street aimlessly until a taxi finally stops for her. She sadly realizes that she has no place to go except her home.<br /> “Miss, where do you want to go?” The driver looks at the woman in the mirror curiously.<br /> “Just drive,” Lily says to the driver.<br /> The car passes a senior business club. Lily looks at the luxury cars at the door. She, without thinking, tells the driver to stop.<br /> After paying, she goes directly into the club. She quickly finds the bar in the hall. After a cursory glance at the expensive prices on the list and she orders several bottles.<br /> The hard liquid goes down her throat and into her belly, and her eyes quickly tear up. After a few more sips, she quickly reflects on the past year, the memories making her feel what a joke it all was.<br /> Her best friend is fooling around with her husband. Lily sadly smiles, her heart is broken.<br /> She downs her glass. Then another. Then another. Soon, she doesn't know how much she has had. But, she does know that she has to pee and walks into the bathroom. After taking care of her business, she goes out and sees a row of tall men in black suits. The men look powerful and important. Now that she has some liquid courage, she casually walks up to one of the men, hooks arms with him and starts chatting with him.<br /> The manager of the restaurant comes up, pulls her away and gives her a look. Seeing that Lily is not bad looking and wearing famous brands, the manager relaxes his face.<br /> “Excuse me, miss, these are doormen. If you want to meet some big players, I can help you out.”<br /> Lily is drunk and sees a chance to get some revenge on Tim. She has already lost everything to this marriage. Why should she always have to be the bigger person if Tim and Jade were just going to betray her?<br /> “Well, I only want the most expensive and most handsome man to accompany me?<br /> As soon as the manager hears that the most expensive, his eyes shine shrewdly. Then he takes her directly to the VIP area. “Just a moment, I'll call someone right away to come here,” the manager tells Lily.<br /> The manager goes into the room first and leaves Lily alone on sofa. She is very drunk and dizzy. In a drunken haze, Lily see the door of the opposite room open and a tall man comes out from it. He looks handsome and strong with long legs, a narrow waist and wide shoulders. Even the face seems like it is craved out of stone. Everything about this man is immaculate. Especially those dark and deep eyes, which hypnotize Lily.<br /> Lily smiles, gets up and walks unsteadily. She grabs the man's arm and says, “Nice, I'm very satisfied.”<br /> The man looks at Lily, raising his eyebrows.<br /> “Let’s go,” he calmly says.<br /> “This is your attitude. Didn't your manager tell you that I'm going to pay you for one night. I don’t care about money. As long as you make me happy, I'll double it for you!” Lily keeps on talking a big game, giving a goofy smile and showing a row of neat, white teeth. The man is tall, and she has to stand on tiptoe to get close to him. “To tell you the truth, this is my first time. Aren’t you lucky.”<br /> <br /> Rex suddenly stops walking, and he finally looks at Lily. Her beautiful face is as small as his palm and she has a pair of clear eyes. The woman's skin is very fair, and she even has no pores. Unlike the other enchanting woman of the night, she doesn't wear make-up, and she is so pure like a daisy shaking in the wind. Now that she is getting closer to him, Rex can smell a mixture liquor and perfume. Rex has had no feelings for any woman over the years, but looking at her, he is very excited.<br /> She is very much to his liking.<br /> Rex raises her chin and says confidently, “First time, huh. Haven’t made love before Lily.”<br /> Lily looks at him directly in the eyes and coolly says, “Is it hard to believe?”<br /> Such flirting made Lily even more irresistible.<br /> Rex looks at the woman's cunning smile and looks down her dress. Rex cannot believe how great this woman looks.<br /> The two of them touch fingertip, and a devious smile crosses both of their faces. Rex says, “No matter what happens, even if you start crying, I won’t let you go.”<br /> Lily raises her head and takes a big gulp for some courage. She says loudly, “We will see who is crying at the end.”<br /> Rex's long arm closes around Lily, and he pulls her closer. He presses the elevator button with his other arm. Before they get in the elevator, the manager comes over with a line of men. Seeing Rex, he immediately shouts respectfully, “Mr. Rex, this lady...”<br /> Rex stares at the men with a warning in his eyes and walks away.<br /> The manager dares not say anything. He listens to Rex’s words and goes back to his job.<br /> The elevator goes directly to the seventh floor of the club. The whole floor is full of VIP presidential suites. Rex has a set of his own private room. He opens the door and pushes the drunk woman in his arms onto the bed. He quickly turns the lights off in the corridor by using a door panel.<br /> The lights turned off, Rex presses Lily against the door, and he reaches for her clothes.<br /> Lily feels that her body is helpless as he effortless keeps her in place. Suddenly, a chill comes over her. She looks down and finds that her clothes are gone, and that she is only wearing her underwear..<br /> Rex pecks her neck passionately and leaves red marks up and down her neck.<br /> Lily’s skin is softer than Rex imagined, which surprised Rex.<br /> Rex quickly sees that Lily is too inexperienced to know what to do. He finds that he doesn't mind that, and he has enough time and patience to guide her.<br /> After many years and quite a few women, it has been a long time since Rex felt this kind of passion for a woman. Rex cannot wait anymore. But as he is about to go further, his hand is gripped by a small hand.<br /> Rex is a little stunned, and he looks into her eyes to see the small face resting on his chest.<br /> Lily has finally come to her senses. She realizes what is going on. She wants to get revenge on Tim, but this is not right. She is scared by what is going on, and she feels the need to back off.<br /> “Don't... I, I'm not ready”<br /> Rex looks into her panic eyes, now accustomed to the darkness, and feels for this tiny woman. His body is ready to go though, telling him to do it now.<br /> Rex's voice is mute. It's too late.<br /> “Ah!”<br /> Sudden Lily lets out a cry of pain, and her body feels like it is being torn apart.<br /> Feeling that the awkwardness has passed, and feeling great satisfaction both emotionally and physically, Rex continues to drill her. It is beyond description.<br /> Lily cries, and gradually the pain is replaced by a strange, new feeling.<br /> “Don't , please let me go...”<br /> At this point it is impossible for to stop Rex.<br /> After a long time, the man finally reaches his climax. Lily’s eyes can't open, and Rex lays her on top of the bed.<br /> Just when she thinks it is over, the man turns her body over. Lily opens her eyes out of fear but cannot stop it.<br /> She struggles to escape, but her waist is held by Rex.<br /> “Please! I'll pay you twice as much. Let me go,” Lily begs with a moan.<br /> But Rex lovingly touches her hair and reassuringly says, “Just bear it for a while, and it will be over soon.”<br /> **<br /> The next morning, Lily wakes up in a pain.<br /> Her body seems to have been run over by a heavy locomotive, and every joint is painful and swollen. She tries to move. Her body feels like it is burning inside. Last night's charming scene flashes in front of her eyes. Lily's face is pale suddenly. That man. How could he do that to me, even when I was fighting him.<br /> The suite is still filled with an indescribable smell. She gets out of bed wrapped in a quilt. The bathroom door suddenly opens. The man comes out with only a bath towel hanging on his waist. He is nearly 1.9 meters tall, with wide shoulders, narrow waist, an 8-pack, and healthy tanned skin.<br /> Lily screams and quickly looks away, “Why don't you wear clothes!”<br /> Rex listens to the woman's stammering voice, and then looks as she wraps herself up like a burrito. He smiles to himself and calmly says, “We've done everything. What are you shy about?”<br /> Lily's face is red and she angrily says, “Can you stop talking about this in the daytime.”<br /> Then she says in a cold voice, “I'll pay you the money. You can go now.”<br /> Rex raises his eyebrows and walks towards the bed. Before he can say anything, Lily rolls over to the other side of the bed, and still wrapped in a quilt says, “Don’t you dare look at me like that. What did you think? I'm married and have a husband. Take the money and leave. Don't tell anyone about last night!”<br /> The man's eyes narrow again. Married but still hasn’t had intercourse yet. That is strange.<br /> “It's not a good relationship, but I'm really married.”<br /> Rex is taken aback by her words.<br /> Looking at the woman with those gloomy eyes, Rex knows that she is telling the truth.<br /> She is married.<br /> No matter how much Rex wants her, he will never be the type of man who breaks up other people's families. To be honest, if he had known that she was married last night, he wouldn’t have done anything..<br /> Rex suddenly feels sick. He quickly puts on his clothes, throws his bath towel on the ground, and looks at her in complete bafflement before he leaves. As he is walking out, he says, “You have taste good, but that maybe wasn’t the best decision.”<br /> He walks out of the room without hesitation<br /> Lily is stunned, and then she grits her teeth angrily. Her eyes turn red slowly. How could she be so stupid. She was just humiliated by a gigolo. Is it her fault that Tim cheated on her? It is because of her lack experience and knowledge about intercourse that Tim looked to another woman?<br /> Lily jumps in the bath and soaks in the tub for a while. After finishing, she goes to the front desk to check out, but the staff stares at her in surprise—<br /> “Miss, did you have any special service last night.”<br /> “No”<br /> Despite her being able to say it, her body definitely could back up it. Lily’s body ached all over.<br /> “I stayed in room 709.”<br /> When the man at the front desk hears 709, a confused look comes across his face. He says, “709 is one of our most valued customer's exclusive room, not open to outsiders. Are you sure you stayed there?”<br /> After finally checking out of the club, Lily could only think about how big of a mistake she had made.<br /> One good thing was she hadn’t spent any money. But she hadn’t slept with a one of the club boys, but with one of clients. But, she thought, who cares who he is, right?<br /> Lily couldn’t stop thinking about this strange new feeling she felt. She realized that she hadn’t even felt this way when Tim first cheated on her<br /> As she is thinking about it, the mobile phone in the bag suddenly rings. Sure enough, it is Tim.<br /> Lily closes her eyes gently, then quickly picks up.<br /> “You have some nerve calling me.”<br /> “Lily how dare you not come home. Where did you go last night?” Tim's grumpy voice rings in her ear.<br /> Lily smiles bitterly, “Why, are you and Jade finished now? Is it my turn?”<br /> “You will regret it. You will pay for what you did.” She adds.

There was shock all around the dining room as what I said sunk in, and I felt the pack bond break.<br /> ********<br /> As the alarm went off I rolled over to hit the snooze button then realized it was 3 AM. I jumped out of bed and headed to the restroom in my hut. After being kicked out of the pack house I was shunned to this small hut in pack lands. The hut was my home even though everyone basically saw it as me sleeping in a cardboard box. It had a open room and a tiny restroom with a shower. It was built for me because no one wanted me around or to use the pack house facilities. I am the disgrace of the South Texas Pack. I have my duties to hold my place in this pack, I cook all the meals for the 300 pack members. I have to stay out of everybody's way considering that is my only way I can stay and have a home if it was even considered that. When I was five the pack found me curled in a ball in the corner of my families old house. My parents layed on the floor in their own blood. The alpha was outraged that his beta was dead. Even though I was a child the pack has blamed me, not once trying to find out the truth behind my parents death. All I remember from that night was waking up to a loud sound, running down the stairs to find my parents already gone. That night still haunts me. Being seventeen and having to raise myself has not been easy. With being punished every chance the pack got I was already ready to give up. There was always a little voice in the back of my mind pushing me not to, and for some reason I have listened to it for the past twelve years. "Lilith" I turned to see one of the pack warriors coming down the stairs getting ready for shift change guarding the land. I recognized him right away, "I'm sorry, Adam, I will go cook breakfast now". I didn't realize I was standing in front of the mirror for so long. As I walked past him I didn't dare look up as I knew by the way he said my name how he would look, disgusted. When I was done with breakfast I made my way to grab a piece of bread since that was what I was allowed. I was expected to survive off of three pieces a day. The reason for my poor nutrition, and nobody cared. I have a feeling that this is what they wanted a slow death. As I was walking out the door before anyone noticed me I ran into somebody. I glanced up only to see who it was and automatically dropped my gaze and head. At six foot tall and built the way every woman dreamed about. Silas, the alpha's son, stood there and said, "How about you get a move on and next time don't ruin my clothes with your disgrace". He shoved me hard so that I fell to the floor and had to scramble up clumsily. Noticing he moved out from the door I ran as fast as I could to my home. I graduated the previous year. Yes, I know i'm a little young to already have graduated high school, but I wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. I didn't have the money to go to the community college like a lot of the pack, so I stayed and worked here for the little they gave me which isn't much at all. I flopped down on my bed and realized tomorrow is my eighteenth birthday. I didn't realize how much time has passed. With not being able to shift into my wolf and turning eighteen means finding your mate, but I don't think it's possible for me. I fear if I was to find him he wouldn't want me and would reject me. Before I noticed I was waking up again to banging on my door. I walked over and pulled the door open revealing my alpha.<br /> "Lilith, tomorrow is your birthday and I have come up with two options for you", he said with distaste. "Yes, alpha", I replied with my head bowed showing respect.<br /> "Option one, You leave the pack and move on with your life, which is the kindest thing I can offer you at the moment", he paused, "Option two, You continue to do what you do for the pack and when the time comes you will break and nobody will mourn you", he announced.<br /> "I will let you know tomorrow of what I choose, but I have no where to go, and at that y'all are who I know", I paused before finishing, "I will announce my decision in front of the whole Pack before breakfast".<br /> I could feel his eyes on me as he thought about what to say, and I was afraid he would slap me for wanting to wait until the morning. All he said was, "Fine", and walked out slamming my door in my face. And than that's when I realized I had the most important decision in my life to make tonight. As I lay awake from thinking about my options and trying to decide what I should do there was a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach. I couldn't decide and it was already 2 AM with no sleep I forced myself to sit up and really think about my future. Where would I go if I left, and would I even be able to survive long. If I was to stay I would either be beat or starved to death. What if I was to find my soulmate here tomorrow and I left before I knew who it was, would he even want me? After I showered and started walking out of my hut I fell to my knees from a sharp pain in my stomach. Thinking it's from not eating anything but a piece of bread yesterday I got up and glanced back at the small room I've lived in for twelve years making my decision. The weird sensation never left even after the pain I felt as I arrived at the pack house. I opened the doors to the kitchen and started pulling out all the ingredients I needed to start cooking. I was going to make the pack the best breakfast they ever had because even though I don't get to celebrate my birthday they will. As I prepared everything possible there was a bang on the kitchen door followed by someone coming in. I turned around to find Silas staring at me with anger, his crystal blue eyes seemed to have fire in them and his slightly curled black hair was messy. I lowered my gaze to the floor instantly.<br /> "Why is it you!?" he yelled. "What do you mean I always prepare the breakfast," I mumbled not looking up from the floor. "You don't feel anything, how could you not I'm standing so close to you but I felt it when you walked into the house" he said calmer but still angry. "All I feel is hunger pains", but as I said it I did feel a pull towards him I didn't want. What he said next I expected but I was not prepared. "I, Silas Morgan, future alpha of the South Texas Pack reject Lilith Conner as my mate!" he announced it with such anger as he turned and left, I felt every ounce as the mate bond broke. At that moment I was in such pain I thanked the goddess herself for letting me finish the food before this happened. I ran as far as I could and when I reached where I felt was safe I fell to my knees and my whole body shook from the tears and pain that I was experiencing. I didn't want the mate bond to be with him, and I also knew if it was someone from this pack they would reject me immediately. It hurt a lot but I managed to stop the tears and gather myself to look slightly normal as I made my way to the pack house to let them know my decision. I walked in and made my way to the dining hall everyone stopped what they where doing as soon as I stepped in. Walking rather quickly to stand in front of the alpha and his family's table I said, " I, Lilith Conner, leave the South Texas Pack in body and mind!" There was shock all around the dining room as what I said sunk in, and I felt the pack bond break. After what felt like a long while the alpha finally spoke, "Lilith Conner, you are officially released from all pack responsibility and bond. You are to leave pack lands immediately!" I finally had the nerve to look at everyone as I walked out and realized the shock was still there mixed with disgust. I never felt love from them after my parents died and I didn't think I ever would, and I didn't want them to have the pleasure of my death so that is why I made the decision I did. I honestly felt a little relieved as I walked out with my head held high. I've never imagined myself packing my life away and heading into the unknown but here I am, as I look around one last time I remind myself that everything happens for a reason. Shutting the door to the hut and throwing my bag over my shoulder I began to walk off pack lands and into the city. As I got to a bench I sat down and counted the little bit of money I have. It turns out I had just enough to find somewhere to stay for a little while. The money I have is what is left from my parents after the pack took the rest to support me as they said. They didn't know I still had this little bit I hid it well in the floor of the hut. I walked to a Motel 6 and got a room and decided to take a long hot shower. Laying on the motel bed I started thinking about getting a job and staying under the radar so no other pack can find me. It is a law not to be a rogue wolf in a packs territory they will have the right to decide your punishment, and most decide to kill you instead of torture. Finally feeling the loneliness of not being in a pack and missing the connection, I have to snap myself out of this, so I decide to put on my hoodie and go to try to find some food close by. Walking into a small gas station that was a block away from the motel I find some cheap food I can use the microwave in the motel room to cook. I pay for everything and start walking back to the motel when I bump into someone, cursing myself I glance up and get a quick glance at a woman around my age. All I find myself saying is, "I'm so sorry, please forgive me". She smiled and said, "It's okay", and then inhaled deeply. Realizing my mistake I took off as fast as I can not looking back to see if she was following. Reaching my motel room and bolting all the locks as soon as I get in I mentally yell at myself for not watching my surroundings, because other wolves can smell a rouge wolf instantly. I only pray she didn't follow me and report back to whoever is alpha of her pack. The weird feeling I was having in my stomach was growing stronger even though I ate. I couldn't blame it on not eating enough because I ate more than I should have. I needed to find a healer and soon, they would hopefully know what is wrong with me. I know they have to have rogue healers somewhere close. I had a feeling I was being followed as I entered a forest on the other side of the city. I didn't want to slow down in fear of being captured which I think is what was going to happen soon. I was running past a huge rock when I was tackled to the ground. I looked up to see who or what was pinning me to the ground, and I was staring into bright green eyes. It was a woman that was holding me down, she had curly red hair that framed her pale, freckled face like a mane. "Who are you?", she said in a calm-stern voice. "I'm sorry to trespass on your lands, my name is Lilith Conner, and I'm trying to find a healer", I replied quickly trying to remain calm. She was still pinning me down and I finally noticed how strong she was. I can tell she was a wolf but I wasn't strong enough to sense whether she was a rogue or in a pack, so I was going to take my chances since I couldn't get away. "Okay Lilith, but tell me why you are out here by yourself I can sense that you are not in a pack, so why should I trust you?" She was looking at me with such curiosity and distrust that I knew I needed to tell her my story if I wanted to make it to a healer in time since the feeling I was having was not disappearing. "I left my pack since I was given the option. They mistreated me ever since my parents died, and blamed me for it. I was also rejected by my mate who was the alpha's son." I went into more detail with her about the hut I was living in, the punishments and how I was basically starving to death.<br /> "So how was I supposed to stay and give them the pleasure of my death, that is why I had to leave", I said with not looking away from her eyes, so she could see I was telling the truth. She was just staring at me and I didn't know what to say or how to act so she wouldn't see me as a threat, even though with her strength I doubt I would be a threat with my overly skinny, malnutritioned self. All of a sudden there was the sharp pain again and I couldn't stop myself from crying out, and I could feel the tears flowing down my face. "Are you okay!?", she was panicking and jumped off of me, pulling me to my feet. "I need to see a healer, and soon, I don't know what is wrong with me", I replied through shallow breaths. I stood as she held on to my wrist, but I felt as if I was going to crumble to my knees at any moment. I didn't have the energy to ask her where we were going. There was a small voice in the back of my mind through all the pain I was feeling that said we could trust her, I hope that was true. I don't know how long we were walking for but we ended up coming to a small village. There was at least ten or more log cabins scattered around the wide openening we were standing in. The cabins had a homey look to them with different colored rose bushes in the front, and there was a large fire pit in the center of it all with wood benches around it. I took this moment to look at her and ask where we were going. She didn't reply and just kept walking until we ended up in front of a cabin with white roses out front. Without looking at me she raised her free hand and knocked four times before I heard shuffling from the inside. The door opened to reveal a elderly looking woman with soft brown eyes and braided silver hair. She looked startled to see me but once she saw that I was clenching my stomach with my free hand she opened the door wider and told us to hurry in. As we were led to a room that had a bed and medical supplies throughout it I realized this was their healer. The woman supporting me helped me lay on the bed and explained to the woman how she found me and what happened. "Now dear, can you tell me what is going on", the healer asked me. "Yes ma'am, it started with a weird sensation in the pit of my stomach a few days ago. Then I get these sharp pains randomly that have me falling to my knees."<br /> She looked at me for a long moment before asking me, "Have you shifted yet, and if you don't mind me asking how old are you?"<br /> "No ma'am I haven't shifted yet, and I turned eighteen a few nights ago." She looked at me with sadness in her eyes. She started gathering multiple things I tried to see what they were but couldn't catch a glimpse as she was moving too fast. She shuffled her way towards me with everything she gathered and set it on a table that was by the bed. I was starting to feel extremely nervous as she lifted the bottom of my shirt halfway up stopping when it reached my ribs. She started pressing on my stomach moving in a circle. She stopped and looked at me suddenly asking,"Can you tell me a little bit about who your parents were?" "I don't know much I was only five when everything happened, I remember that my father was the beta of my old pack and my mother was always with me." She seemed to be in a daze then snapped out of it asking what my parents names were. I replied, "Jay and Emily Conner, I'm afraid I don't know my mother's maiden name." "Well dear, I'm just going to say that there is magic holding your wolf in and I won't be able to help you with that, i'm sorry, but I can tell you that your wolf is fighting against the magic and that is why you are having pain. I can give you some herbs to help with the pain but you will need to find a witch to help you with the magic", she said with pity in her eyes.<br /> She walked to a cabinet on the wall across from the bed and grabbed a jar and needle. Coming back to the bed she said, " I am going to give you some pain medicine through a injection to help for now." The lady with the red hair was still here sitting at the end of the bed, her head shot up to the healer and the needle pierced my arm and before I could say anything I slipped into blackness.<br /> <br /> <br /> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>><br /> Wanna continue this incredible story?

No wonder they seem familiar! Brock and Cody Easton are twins, first-year draft picks, and star players for the Leopards. In the NFL world, they're better known as the Beast Brothers.<br /> As I stand up, the man by the car — is he Cody or Brock? — looks me over. There's something other than concern in his gaze and he's not even trying to be subtle about it. His eyes travel down my body and up again, taking in my curves, and his expression changes from annoyance to speculation.<br /> My skin feels too tight all of a sudden, as if my nerve endings were trying to push through, leap across the space between us, and wrap themselves around him. What is wrong with me? It's only been a few hours since I packed my car and left my prick of an ex, I was just in a car accident, and here I am salivating over two men I haven't even properly met.<br /> —<br /> Megan<br /> The best thing Jason ever did was cheat on me.<br /> Not that I'm grateful to my skunk of an ex-fiancé at the moment. I'm crawling down the freeway in bumper-to-bumper traffic, heading into my hometown. There's a big game this weekend and the Leopards are the team to beat in the NFL, so everybody and his brother has come to see them take on the Stallions.<br /> Reaching my exit at last, I take the off-ramp to Central Avenue. It's as crowded as the freeway, crammed with cars trying to get home or to a hotel before the dark clouds overhead unleash their fury. I inch along, wishing the traffic would vanish so I could pistol the puny engine on my compact car and vent some of my emotions.<br /> Every time the scene from this morning intrudes on my mind, anger and pain flare up anew. I'm sick of driving, sick of grieving, of wasting my tears on a man who doesn't deserve them. If I hadn't come home early and found Jason balls-deep in another woman, I'd still be planning our wedding.<br /> I need a drink and a hot bath and some mindless entertainment. I need to be numb.<br /> My cell phone rings. I glance down and see that it's Jason. It's all I can do not to pick up the phone and hurl it straight through the windshield.<br /> It's only an instant that my eyes are off the road, but when I look up there's a truck stopped right in front of me. With no time to brake, I wrench the steering wheel, jerking my car sideways into the next lane — just as a bright blue sports car whips into the same spot from the other side.<br /> Its front bumper hits the passenger side of my car with a sickening crunch, bouncing my head off the window next to me, then snapping me back the other way. The impact spins my car around. I end up facing the wrong way, the oncoming traffic dividing frantically around me like water going past the prow of a ship.<br /> I'm too stunned to move; for long moments, I just sit there staring. I'm finally numb, but not the way I wanted.<br /> Maybe I messed up in another life, and today is some kind of karmic revenge. My lower lip trembles, and I bite down on it. Self-pity sucks, and no matter what, I will not start crying again.<br /> A tap on my side window makes me jump. I turn my head to see a man peering in at me. Dark hair, dark eyes, shoulders as broad as a house. Why does he seem so familiar?<br /> When I don't respond, he opens my door. "Are you all right?"<br /> "Yes. I'm sorry," I say, straightening in my seat. "Was that your car?" "Yeah, but don't worry about that." I hear a snort behind him, but I can't see who it is because the huge man in front of me is blocking my view.<br /> Undoing my seat belt, I turn to get out of the car. The man takes my hand to help me up. Electric heat surges up my arm and through my body, flooding me with sensation. A detached corner of my mind notices my entirely inappropriate response, and wonders if it's because I'm in shock.<br /> He backs away to give me room. Now I can see the other man, standing by the flashy blue car with his arms folded. Same hair, same eyes, same massive build.<br /> At first I wonder if I'm seeing double; then it hits me. No wonder they seem familiar! Brock and Cody Easton are twins, first-year draft picks, and star players for the Leopards. In the NFL world, they're better known as the Beast Brothers.<br /> As I stand up, the man by the car — is he Cody or Brock? — looks me over. There's something other than concern in his gaze and he's not even trying to be subtle about it. His eyes travel down my body and up again, taking in my curves, and his expression changes from annoyance to speculation.<br /> My skin feels too tight all of a sudden, as if my nerve endings were trying to push through, leap across the space between us, and wrap themselves around him. What is wrong with me? It's only been a few hours since I packed my car and left my prick of an ex, I was just in a car accident, and here I am salivating over two men I haven't even properly met.<br /> Granted, they are the hottest men I've ever laid eyes on. But still. "Don't worry about the car," the one nearest me says again. "I'm Cody, by the way." He'd let go of me when I stood up, and now he's holding out his hand again to shake.<br /> It's an enormous hand — it engulfs mine, and I am not a petite woman. But I only have an instant to process that, because at the contact with his rough, warm skin, heat flows through me once more. This time, my papilla go hard.<br /> I tell myself it's the stress. That's why I'm getting more turned on than I ever did from Jason's touch, right here in the middle of the street, with honking cars all around us. I want to believe it, but I know it's not true.<br /> The other thing I know is that I need to stop feeling this way. Now. I pull my hand free and look at his brother. "So you must be Brock. My dad's told me about you both."<br /> A slow smile quirks one side of his mouth. He's devastatingly handsome, just like his twin — and he knows it. "Your dad's a fan?"<br /> "You could say that," I tell him. "He's your coach."<br /> The guys exchange a quick glance, eyebrows raised. Traffic is still going by us, but very slowly because people keep stopping to take photos of the twins through their car windows, even though night has fallen.<br /> "You're Coach Turner's daughter?" Brock says. NFL teams have a lot of different coaches, so it's a valid question. But there's only one head coach, and that's my dad.<br /> "Yeah, I'm Megan. I'd say it's nice to meet you, but I'd really prefer we hadn't met this way."<br /> Cody grins at that, but Brock's frowning, his mind on something else. "Don't you live in Omaha?"<br /> "I did," I say. And I am so not having that conversation with either of these guys. "We should call the police and our insurance and all that."<br /> Their sports car has a crumpled fender but is mostly intact. When I go around to the passenger side of my car, though, I see that it took the brunt of things.<br /> "Yeah, it's totaled," Cody says from behind me. He sounds far too cheerful about it, and I suppress a twinge of irritation. Even as a rookie, he's earning a good salary, so buying a new car is no big deal to him.<br /> But I have no job at the moment, and I'm not asking my father for money. He's already letting me stay at his place until I can sort things out. Letting him pay for stuff on top of that is way more than I'm comfortable with. Maybe I can find some kind of telecommuting work until I can get another car.<br /> I go back around to the driver's side, taking out my phone and my insurance card. Brock's already on his phone. "Cops are on the way to take an accident report," he says when he hangs up, "and I've got tow trucks and a cab coming too."<br /> "Tow trucks, plural?" I say.<br /> He shrugs. "They both need it."<br /> "Well, thank you." But he only called one cab. Does that mean ...<br /> "Are you heading to your dad's house?" he says, as if hearing my unspoken question. At my nod, he continues, "We'll drop you off. It's on the way to our place anyway."<br /> "Thanks," I say again. "That's really very kind."<br /> "No big deal." He and Cody exchange another swift glance, and this time I sense the undercurrent flowing between them. Whatever they're thinking, it sends a ripple of awareness down my spine.<br /> The brothers are standing together now, and I can't help but admire the view. Chiseled jaws, skin in matching shades of sun-tanned bronze, strong noses, sensual mouths. They were impressive when I watched them play on TV, but in person their charisma is overwhelming.<br /> My gaze wanders down to the arms like tree trunks, then the tight, narrow waists. They're both wearing gym shorts and t-shirts, the fabric straining against their biceps and thighs. I bet their abs are amazing too. They could be world-class models instead of football players.<br /> Two sets of big, dark brown eyes pin me in place, and suddenly I can't breathe. The moment lengthens until I force myself to look away. My heart is beating way too fast.<br /> Maybe getting in a taxi with the twins is not such a good idea. But the wind is rising, the clouds darker and more threatening. We need to get indoors before the skies open up.<br /> By the time the police and the tow trucks have come and gone, the taxi has arrived, and the air has a bite that makes me shiver. I have my suitcase and purse, but have to cross my fingers that the rest of the stuff in my car will be safe at the repair shop until I can pick it up. Cody puts the suitcase in the cab's trunk, then opens the back door and slides in. Brock gestures for me to go next.<br /> I don't want to make a big deal out of riding up front with the driver after the guys have been so nice to me, so I get in and scoot over to make room. The brothers dwarf me, and when Brock slides in, I'm squeezed between them like I'm the filling in a twin sandwich.<br /> The driver pulls into the crush of traffic. Pressed between the brothers, I'm instantly warm. My whole body starts to tingle, and it's not just from the heat coming off them. I know this because the sensations are strongest right between my legs.<br /> I've never reacted to a man like this before, let alone two of them at once. Maybe all my emotions about Jason are being diverted into lust. Which means it's a really bad idea for me to let this continue.<br /> If they realize how turned on I am, they'll think I'm a freak or a groupie. I don't want to give them any ideas, since I'll doubtless be around them again — I won't miss a game. In my best nice/polite/helpful voice, I say, "I should sit in front."<br /> "Nah," Brock drawls, and the next thing I know he picks me up as if I weigh nothing at all and settles me sideways on his lap, my hip nestled in his crotch. I suck in a breath as electricity jolts through my body.<br /> Excuse me," I say, still struggling for politeness. "I can't sit in your lap." I try to ignore the sensations spiraling from my core out through my body and back again.<br /> "You are sitting in my lap," he points out, like it's no big deal. One of his hands, so big and strong and warm, is curled around my waist, burning through my clothing. The other goes to my head, pressing gently down to tuck me against his neck, then stays tangled in my hair.<br /> He smells like sunshine and clean male sweat. It's intoxicating. My voice comes out all soft and breathy when I say, "I mean it's not appropriate. Please let me go."<br /> "Relax, sugar," he says in that same lazy tone. "We're not gonna hurt you."<br /> The we is not exactly comforting.<br /> Brock's mouth brushes the skin on the side of my neck, making me jolt. Since I can't take them up on their offer, I don't need any more torment. I try to pull away again, but he just tucks me back against his side.<br /> "Easy, Megalicious," he says in that rumble of his. "You're too tense. We need to help you relax."<br /> "You did not just call me — that." I can't even make myself repeat his ridiculous nickname. Who does he think he is? Besides the guy who's making my brain melt, I mean, along with the rest of my body.<br /> Cody chuckles. "How about megagorgeous?" He shifts closer, running a finger up and down my arm. <br /> My system is overloading again, and I can't help squirming some more on Brock's lap. "Yeah, babe," he says. "Let Daddy Brock make you feel better."<br /> "Daddy Brock?" I sputter and then snort with laughter. "You guys are no older than I am. I might even be older than you."<br /> "It's not the years, baby," he says, his lips grazing the sensitive shell of my outer ear. "It's the mileage."<br /> Even as I roll my eyes at him quoting movie lines at me, he turns me so I'm facing forward in the taxi. One arm wraps around my midriff, and his free hand teases the skin just above the waistband of my shorts.<br /> His touch sends sparks shooting right down to my private part. I must have hit my head during the collision harder than I thought. Anger, grief, stress, hormones — can't forget the raging hormones — have apparently shredded every bit of common sense I possess. Because I don't say anything.<br /> All I have to do is open my mouth and tell them, "No." Or "Stop that." And they'd back off, both of them. I know it in my bones. Impossible as it sounds, I feel safe with these two men who are taking such liberties with my body.<br /> I'm letting it happen because I want it to. Because I want them. Because right now, with the rain wrapping the taxi in sheets of water, hiding us in our own little world, all I care about is how they're making me feel.<br /> And how they're making me feel is like a beautiful and desirable woman. Someone worth wanting. Someone Jason was a fool to let go.<br /> Who are you kidding? whispers the self-doubt that's been tormenting me all day, ever since I walked in on Jason and his mistress. You're nothing to them.<br /> I almost listen, almost give in to the crushing weight of my insecurity. But then my phone rings. Cody pulls it out of my purse. "Jason," he says, reading the screen. "Who's that?"<br /> My anger blazes again. "No one," I snap. I grab the phone, hit the Reject Call button, and toss it back in my purse. Jason, and not in a good way. He got his and now I'm getting mine.<br /> I relax against Brock, consciously letting go of my resistance. "That's my girl," he whispers. His hand slips inside my shorts, then under the elastic of my panties, his fingertips teasing the curls above my cherry.<br /> Now that I've decided not to fight it, I'm impatient for more. "Touch me," I whisper back. "Do it."<br /> <br /> There's a car I don't recognize parked in my dad's driveway, a white SUV next to his black one. The guys exchange a glance, but don't say anything. We all get out, and Cody retrieves my suitcase while Brock says to the driver, "Wait here — we'll be back in a few minutes."<br /> "That's okay," I say. "You don't have to come in with me." My dad may not have x-ray vision, but I can't shake the feeling that as soon as he sees us together, he'll somehow know what just happened.<br /> "Just need to ask him a question," Brock says, but there's a twinkle in his eye that fills me with trepidation. He and Cody follow me up the sidewalk, close behind me as if they're afraid I'll slip inside and lock the door on them. They might be right.<br /> My body hasn't stopped humming from those amazing orgasms, and I mentally cross my fingers that my face is blank enough to protect me. Since Dad's expecting me, I open the front door without knocking, the twins still right behind me.<br /> The entryway opens into the living room, with a hallway branching off to the left that goes to the bedrooms, and a doorway on the right that leads to the kitchen. Since the living room is empty, I turn into the kitchen — and stop so fast the brothers bump into me.<br /> My dad's there, and so is a woman I've never seen before. Their arms are around each other; his hands are on her hip. And they're pecking like there's no tomorrow.<br /> I haven't been this shocked since the day I was ten and came home to find my father crying in the living room. Even catching Jason this morning was less of a stunner. My voice is stuck in my throat. I don't know what I'd say anyway.<br /> Brock comes to my rescue by clearing his throat loudly, breaking up the makeout session. My dad's head whips around. "Megan!" he says. He looks confused — understandable, with the Beast Brothers at my back — but also a bit guilty.<br /> "Hi, Dad." I find I can speak now that the silence has been broken. "I did tell you I was almost here." His guilty look increases, and a small part of me is glad because it helps me conceal my own feelings of self-reproach. He comes over to give me a hug, wrapping his arms around me and holding me close. When I called this morning to say I was on my way, he didn't ask any questions; something in my voice must have warned him it wasn't the time. All he said was, "I'll be here."<br /> His unwavering support steadies me, even as the contrast to Jason's betrayal is like a shard of glass in my heart. I squeeze him tighter, overflowing with love and gratitude, but his next words shatter the mood.<br /> "Vivian stopped by after we spoke," he says. "Vivian, I'd like you to meet my daughter Megan."<br /> The woman comes forward, hands outstretched. "It's wonderful to meet you, dear. Your father's told me so much about you."<br /> My first thought is that she looks nothing like my mother. I still have memories of my mom, and lots of old photographs. Not to mention mirrors. I have my mother's auburn curls and curvy build, whereas Vivian is blonde and slender. I'm relieved that there's no resemblance; I'm not sure what I would do if my dad started dating a lookalike.<br /> Her expression, though, puts my back up. Maybe it's my imagination working overtime, but the little smile playing around her lips reminds me of Jason's mistress. He threw her out this morning when I caught them together, but she smirked at me while she strutted out of the house, as if she'd won some kind of victory.<br /> I want to smack Vivian's smile right off her face — which is crazy and wrong. My dad isn't cheating; he's entitled to be happy.<br /> I should be happy that he's met someone after so many years alone. But I'm not. Shoving aside thoughts of what that says about me, I force a smile and say, "It's nice to meet you."<br /> And that's when everything goes from awkward to totally insane.<br /> Because Vivian looks at the twins and says, "Hello, boys. What are you doing here?"<br /> And Cody and Brock say, "Hey, Mom."

I'm in front of the café. Call you later!” Emmanuel Lowe hung up on his mother impatiently.<br /> The twenty-eight-year-old man had never been in a relationship.<br /> <br /> After spending seven years in the army, he retired from the military and worked at a hospital in Yeringham for three years.<br /> <br /> He was a gynecologist at the hospital and made eighty thousand a year.<br /> <br /> Worried he would end up old and alone, Emmanuel's mother urged him to settle down. Since he had no idea where to begin when it came to dating, his mother took matters into her own hands and set him up on multiple blind dates.<br /> <br /> Thanks to her efforts, he had gone on seventeen blind dates so far.<br /> <br /> Alas, wedding bells were clearly not on the horizon for Emmanuel. It was frustrating. He knew he was just going through the motions at that point.<br /> <br /> “Help! Someone help me!”<br /> <br /> Right before Emmanuel entered the café, he heard someone calling out weakly for help.<br /> <br /> The cries came from an old man who had fallen on the roadside. Many pedestrians walked past him, but no one dared to stop and help him to his feet.<br /> <br /> After all, helping the old man could be more trouble than it was worth if one ended up with an expensive lawsuit for injuring him further. No one would do something that risky and foolish.<br /> <br /> It did not deter Emmanuel from stepping forward and helping the man to his feet. He asked, “Are you all right, sir?”<br /> <br /> “I'm fine! Thank you so much, young man! It's so hard to find people as kind as you these days. I must repay you for your kindness!” replied the old man with a smile.<br /> <br /> Emmanuel realized then that the old man's attire was at odds with his airs. Despite his tattered clothes, the old man's clean hands looked like those of a man accustomed to wealth.<br /> <br /> Still, he had no time to satisfy his curiosity. After confirming that the old man was unharmed, Emmanuel rushed into the café for his blind date. He never once considered being repaid for his kind act earlier.<br /> <br /> The café was massive and practically structured like a maze.<br /> <br /> Emmanuel's mother mentioned that his blind date was seated at table number eight. He wandered through the confusing café, but before he could locate the correct table, he stumbled into a special area.<br /> <br /> The lighting was softer there, and the floor was scattered with fresh petals.<br /> <br /> The sweet scent of flowers wafted through the air. He wondered if he had set foot in heaven.<br /> <br /> Emmanuel raised his eyes and immediately froze.<br /> <br /> A beautiful, elegant woman sat before a table in the room.<br /> <br /> It was no exaggeration to say she embodied perfection itself.<br /> <br /> The heavens clearly decided to shower all their favors on her.<br /> <br /> The woman quietly sipped her coffee with her legs crossed neatly to the side. On the table was a non-translated copy of The Power Broker.<br /> <br /> When she noticed Emmanuel barging into the room, she looked up at him in confusion and displeasure.<br /> <br /> Thump! Thump! Thump!<br /> <br /> When Emmanuel recovered from the shock of stumbling upon the beautiful stranger, he realized his heart was about to beat its way out of his chest.<br /> <br /> Never once had he ever felt so attracted to a woman in his twenty-eight years of life.<br /> <br /> The countless female bodies he had seen in his work as a gynecologist hardly appealed to him. At some point, he even wondered if he was attracted to women at all.<br /> <br /> Against all odds, it seemed, the young woman before him made his heart race like a runaway horse.<br /> <br /> Am I simply nervous, or am I already attracted to her?<br /> <br /> More surprisingly, Emmanuel noticed a large number eight sign on the woman's table.<br /> <br /> She's my blind date?<br /> <br /> He took a deep breath to calm himself before approaching her table and taking a seat opposite her.<br /> <br /> The young woman's expression grew increasingly flabbergasted. There was even a hint of hostility in her pretty eyes.<br /> <br /> The audacity of this man! Barging into my private room is bad enough, but he's going to sit opposite me like it's nobody's business?<br /> <br /> Emmanuel ignored her expression. It was not the first time a woman had scoffed at him.<br /> <br /> They were free to go their separate ways after getting the blind date done and over with.<br /> <br /> He introduced himself, declaring, “Hi! My name is Emmanuel Lowe. I'm twenty-eight years old, and I work as a gynecologist. I make eighty thousand a year and don't own a car or a house.”<br /> <br /> Any man would need an incredible amount of courage to say such things to a woman, but Emmanuel appeared unusually calm and unfazed.<br /> <br /> The young woman stared at him in shock. A moment later, her lips curved into a smirk, and she replied with an introduction of her own.<br /> <br /> “Nice to meet you. I'm Mackenzie Quillen. I'm twenty-seven years old with dual doctorates in finance and business administration from Harvard University. I made three billion last year, and I have a car and a house.”<br /> <br /> Emmanuel was stunned.<br /> <br /> What is happening?<br /> <br /> He always thought women on blind dates came with red flags.<br /> <br /> Mackenzie, however, was arguably flawless.<br /> <br /> Where's the catch?<br /> <br /> All sorts of fantastical theories filled Emmanuel's mind.<br /> <br /> Mackenzie smirked at his perplexed expression. The pride in her cool gaze was evident.<br /> <br /> She deliberately introduced herself to put the stranger in a difficult spot and intimidate him into retreating.<br /> <br /> As expected, awkward silence lingered in the air after her words.<br /> <br /> Urgh, forget it!<br /> <br /> Whether Mackenzie was telling the truth was beside the point. Emmanuel decided to go through all the motions so he could at least mollify his mother, even if the date did not result in a trip to the altar.<br /> <br /> He declared, “I don't make much, but if you decide to date me, I promise I'll always protect and cherish you. I'll take over all the household chores so you can be a queen at home. Of course, I hope you'll allow me to preserve my masculine pride in front of my family. If we do get married, I can give you about five to six thousand every month.”<br /> <br /> It was a well-worn script that Emmanuel recited in a single breath.<br /> <br /> Mackenzie was dumbfounded at his earnest expression and apparent lack of shame at his much lower salary.<br /> <br /> A long while later, she burst into a chuckle.<br /> <br /> She had never met a man who could humor her so.<br /> <br /> “What are you laughing about?” Unimpressed by her reaction, Emmanuel continued, “I know I don't check all the boxes, but I promise I'll be a good and responsible husband if we're married!”<br /> <br /> Pfft!<br /> <br /> Mackenzie failed to keep in her snigger.<br /> <br /> An annoyed Emmanuel demanded, “Why are you laughing, Ms. Quillen? Don't you think you're being rather rude?”<br /> <br /> “Sir, you're a very good man!” Mackenzie stopped smiling and retorted coldly, “But I think you're the confused one here. I'm not here for a blind date!”<br /> <br /> Huh? What is going on?<br /> <br /> Emmanuel's eyes widened in horror as he sputtered, “Isn't this table number eight?”<br /> <br /> “Yes, but this is the VIP area. You must be looking for table number eight in the common dining area. Please go out and turn right!” She pointed a slender finger at the exit.<br /> <br /> “Oh... Sorry! I'm so sorry! I mixed things up!”<br /> <br /> Emmanuel wished he could sink into the floor in embarrassment. He jumped to his feet, ready to make a hasty escape.<br /> <br /> That was so embarrassing! How could I sit at the wrong table for a blind date? No wonder she was laughing so much. She must have thought I was shooting above my weight!<br /> <br /> Shortly after Emmanuel's departure, an old man entered Mackenzie's private room, escorted by four black-clad bodyguards.<br /> <br /> Emmanuel would have been astonished if he was still around. The old man was none other than the stranger he had helped earlier in front of the café!<br /> <br /> He implored, “Perhaps this is fate, Mackenzie. You're twenty-seven, but you've never been in a relationship because of your misandry. No man would dare come near you! But that young man succeeded! He's also a kind and just person. A while ago, he helped me outside the café and didn't expect a reward for his actions!”<br /> <br /> The old man's true identity was Terence Quillen, chairman of Yeringham's premier financial corporation.<br /> <br /> While his wealth could trump that of entire nations, he had a major regret in life.<br /> <br /> Terence had had three sons who tragically passed away before him. They either had no children of their own or only left daughters behind.<br /> <br /> Mackenzie was Terence's favorite granddaughter and next-in-line to helm Terence Group.<br /> <br /> Her intelligence and charisma did not change the fact that she was a woman.<br /> <br /> Before Terence met his maker, he wished his favorite granddaughter could give him a great-grandchild.<br /> <br /> That spurred him to fake his fall in front of the café and scout a decent man for his granddaughter. To his surprise, the young man who helped him earlier made a blunder of his own blind date and ended up meeting Mackenzie instead.<br /> <br /> Isn't that fate?<br /> <br /> Mackenzie remained stoically unmoved by her grandfather's words. “Grandpa, he may have passed your test, but he hasn't passed mine. I'll marry him if he aces my test.”<br /> <br /> She wanted to fulfill her grandfather's wish, but she naturally wished to promise herself to a good man.<br /> <br /> Marrying a man after one blind date was simply too hasty and careless.<br /> <br /> Terence's gaze lit up expectantly, and he replied, “All right! I'm sure he will pass your test!”<br /> <br /> Chapter 2 Failure<br /> <br /> After turning right at the door, Emmanuel finally found table number eight in the common dining area.<br /> <br /> Sure enough, a woman was seated at the table, looking like she was running out of patience.<br /> <br /> Dressed in professional attire that accentuated her beautiful curves, she was, by all means, a sight to behold.<br /> <br /> Even though she didn't exude the same air of elegance that Mackenzie had, there was no denying she had the power to make men fall at her feet.<br /> <br /> Thankfully, Emmanuel wasn't disappointed in the slightest. After all, he was well aware of his own qualities.<br /> <br /> Without further ado, he straightened himself up and approached the woman with a smile.<br /> <br /> “Sorry I'm late! My name's Emmanuel Lowe. I'm twenty-eight years old, and I work as a gynecologist with an annual salary of eighty thousand—”<br /> <br /> “Stop!” the woman coldly interrupted before he could finish his introduction. “What's the meaning of this? With what little you have to offer; do you seriously think women would want to marry you? I can't believe you even had the nerve to be late! What right do you have to keep a woman waiting? This has been an utter waste of my time. Hmph!”<br /> <br /> After firing off a barrage of questions, the red-faced woman angrily splashed a glass of water on Emmanuel's face.<br /> <br /> The latter, who was caught off guard, instantly became soaking wet.<br /> <br /> Nevertheless, Emmanuel didn't lose his temper. After all, he was indeed late because he went to the wrong place, so he could understand why the woman was upset.<br /> <br /> “Hmph. You're twenty-eight and still only earning eighty-thousand a year. No wonder you're doing so poorly! Not only do you lack punctuality, but you also don't seem to take life seriously. You're doomed to be at the bottom of the social hierarchy your entire life! I'm shocked you even have the guts to go on a blind date with me... Stop being delusional!” the woman scolded as she shot Emmanuel a look of contempt.<br /> <br /> The next second, she grabbed her bag and stormed off, not once bothering to leave her name.<br /> <br /> To add insult to injury, she even waved a wad of cash in front of Emmanuel's face, then slapped it hard on the table as payment for the bill.<br /> <br /> The latter's gaze darkened instantly as rage began pulsing through his veins.<br /> <br /> This woman is humiliating me! I may not have high expectations for marriage, but that doesn't mean I don't have a temper! Argh! As much as I want to make her regret her actions, I know I don't have that capability...<br /> <br /> Since the woman was gone, Emmanuel, too, left the café glumly.<br /> <br /> To his surprise, he had only just stepped out the door when he saw a long-haired man deliberately colliding into a BMW and screaming in pain.<br /> <br /> Emmanuel couldn't help but furrow his brows. Oh, gosh. That man is clearly staging a car accident. Why is there so much trouble in this café today?<br /> <br /> “Ah! Someone's been hit!”<br /> <br /> “Argh! My leg's broken! Murderer!”<br /> <br /> Four men immediately rushed out to join the commotion when the long-haired man fell on the ground.<br /> <br /> Thankfully, Emmanuel saw right through their ploy. Ha! Those guys must be the co-conspirators!<br /> <br /> Just then, a young lady hastily exited the BMW, clad in a maroon sleeveless dress that revealed a large expanse of tender, fair skin.<br /> <br /> “What's the matter? How could I have injured your leg when I was driving so slowly?” she asked anxiously.<br /> <br /> Seconds later, the long-haired man's buddies surrounded the woman, demanding compensation. “Cut the crap! Pay up! Pay up now!”<br /> <br /> Several people in the café had witnessed the staged accident, but unfortunately, they were so afraid of the big, burly men that no one dared to confront them.<br /> <br /> “How much do you guys want?” the woman muttered helplessly, having resigned herself to the fact that she'd have to settle the matter with money.<br /> <br /> The group of thugs, however, began leering at and drooling over her.<br /> <br /> “Haha. Hey, why don't you have some fun with us?” one of the men suggested.<br /> <br /> Just like that, what had started as a staged accident quickly turned into public harassment.<br /> <br /> The pretty woman was so scared out of her wits that she staggered backward until she bumped into Emmanuel.<br /> <br /> Instead of taking advantage of her like the other thugs, Emmanuel stepped in front of her and glared at the long-haired man.<br /> <br /> “Your leg's broken, and you're asking for compensation, huh?”<br /> <br /> Upon seeing Emmanuel's menacing expression, the thugs felt chills down their spines.<br /> <br /> At the same time, Mackenzie was sitting in the café and watching the entire scene unfold.<br /> <br /> Well, well, well. Who knew that man would be so brave? I'm sure no one else would have the guts to go up against five thugs.<br /> <br /> The next second, Emmanuel stunned everyone by viciously kicking the long-haired man's leg.<br /> <br /> “Argh!” the latter shouted in pain as he began hopping on the leg that was supposedly broken.<br /> <br /> The onlookers instantly let out a collective gasp.<br /> <br /> Goodness gracious! That man is daring!<br /> <br /> Mackenzie, too, had curled her lips into a smile.<br /> <br /> The café was one of her properties, so naturally, she had also seen how Emmanuel's blind date went.<br /> <br /> I thought he was a timid man when he didn't flare up despite being splashed with water. Who knew he was just a gentleman who doesn't lose his temper with women? I must admit, he looks rather charming when he shows his tough side!<br /> <br /> “What's this? Didn't you say your leg's broken? I'm impressed you can still jump on it!” Emmanuel mocked.<br /> <br /> When the onlookers realized that the long-haired man had lied about his injury, they wasted no time scolding and criticizing him.<br /> <br /> By then, the other thugs had also lost their bravado and fell silent. After all, they knew the tables had turned on them.<br /> <br /> “Hmph. I'll let you off this time. You'd better watch your back!” the long-haired man warned before running away with his tail between his legs.<br /> <br /> With that, the pretty woman gave Emmanuel a warm smile and coyly gestured for him to get into her car. “Hey, handsome, thank you so much for your help. Would you like to go to my house for a drink?”<br /> <br /> Emmanuel, however, brushed her off without a second thought. “No, thank you. I have other things to do!”<br /> <br /> Seeing how unmoved he was by her advances, the woman couldn't help but stomp her feet in frustration.<br /> <br /> Back in the café, Mackenzie heard her grandfather burst into loud guffaws.<br /> <br /> “Haha! I told you so, Mackenzie! Didn't I say that man has an excellent character? Your assistant, Lexi, is such a beautiful woman, yet he refuses to give her the time of day! Once you guys are married, you won't have to worry about him betraying you!”<br /> <br /> The more Mackenzie ruminated about Terence's words, the more her impression of Emmanuel improved.<br /> <br /> “Don't be too happy yet, Grandpa! Men are either after looks or money,” Mackenzie uttered coldly before getting up.<br /> <br /> Ha! I doubt Emmanuel can pass my second secret test of character!<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Emmanuel had gotten home after his matchmaking session failed spectacularly.<br /> <br /> Needless to say, his sister, Roselynn Lowe, was frustrated beyond belief. “What? Another unsuccessful blind date?”<br /> <br /> This is the eighteenth time, for goodness' sake! My brother's a six-foot tall, fit, and upstanding young man. Why won't any woman take a fancy to him? He may be thick-skulled at times, but surely, someone will still appreciate him for his good looks, won't they?<br /> <br /> Emmanuel's mother, Alessandra Cadigan, seemed even more anxious as she hurriedly dragged him out of the house.<br /> <br /> “Mom, what are you doing?” Emmanuel asked, startled by how panic-stricken Alessandra was.<br /> <br /> “What am I doing? I'm worried sick about you!” the woman scolded without breaking her stride. “I don't understand it, either. Our neighbor's an unkempt twenty-eight-year-old novelist who's always cooped up at home, yet he's already planning for his second child! Why can't my son get a girlfriend? That woman didn't even stay for the blind date, did she? I paid good money to set this up for you! Let's go see her at her house right now!”<br /> <br /> “What?” Emmanuel choked out.<br /> <br /> Did I hear that right? I can't believe Mom has gotten this desperate! The matchmaking session was an utter failure, so why must she still insist on dragging me to the woman's place? Wouldn't I just be embarrassing myself again?<br /> <br /> Chapter 3 Rags to Riches<br /> <br /> In any relationship, the party taking the initiative was often seen as lowlier and more desperate.<br /> <br /> Therefore, upon seeing Emmanuel and his family at her house, Milani Zimmerman wore an even haughtier expression than when she was at the café.<br /> <br /> Ha! I knew he wouldn't be able to get over my looks, so he's come to badger me again!<br /> <br /> Milani's mother, Melody Claus, was just as smug when she learned of the Lowe family's intention.<br /> <br /> “If your son wishes to marry my daughter, you'll have to give us a betrothal gift of five hundred thousand,” she said as she raised her palm. “We won't accept anything less!”<br /> <br /> Emmanuel's heart instantly sank.<br /> <br /> Oh, my goodness! Five hundred thousand? Is she trying to sell her daughter?<br /> <br /> Alessandra, however, gritted her teeth and nodded. “T-That's fine!”<br /> <br /> As long as my son can get married, I'll do anything to make up for the betrothal gift, even if it means selling the house!<br /> <br /> “Your family must also provide a car and matrimonial home!” Milani's father chimed in. “More importantly, you're not going to let my daughter pay for any installments or maintenance fees!”<br /> <br /> By then, Emmanuel was on the verge of losing his patience.<br /> <br /> Shouldn't marriages be consensual? I don't expect both parties to be forking out the wedding expenses equally, but why does it feel like my family's here to surrender and be fleeced?<br /> <br /> Alessandra, too, found herself in a tight spot.<br /> <br /> She could sell the house to afford the betrothal gift, but how would she pay for the couple's car and home?<br /> <br /> “Sure. That's no problem!” Roselynn piped up, even going so far as to pull her brother back when she realized he wanted to object.<br /> <br /> She was just as eager for Emmanuel to start a family, and at thirty years old, she had worked and saved up enough to make the necessary down payments for him.<br /> <br /> Since Mom is settling the betrothal gift, I shall help Emmanuel with the car and home!<br /> <br /> “Lastly, he will bear all household expenses after the wedding!” Milani suddenly said.<br /> <br /> That, however, was the last straw for Emmanuel. “I don't mind paying this much if she's coming to work for us as a housekeeper, but if she expects to be treated like a princess or queen, you can forget it! I don't need that!”<br /> <br /> “Look at your son! What's with that attitude?” Milani yelled. “We aren't even married yet, and he's already so domineering. Wouldn't it be worse down the road?”<br /> <br /> “No, no, no... The marriage will work out. It'd work out just fine!” Alessandra pleaded, desperate to finalize the wedding.<br /> <br /> I can't wait any longer... I must fulfill my husband's last wish by the end of the year!<br /> <br /> Having seen how things were going, even Roselynn knew she had to step in to persuade her mother. “Mom! Stop forcing it!”<br /> <br /> Manny's right. There's nothing wrong with giving a betrothal gift, car, and house. However, asking him to be the sole supporter of his family after the wedding is too much! What about his wife, then? Why can't she chip in? Will she be sending her own money back to her parents?<br /> <br /> Just then, Milani's younger brother, Jacob Zimmerman, suddenly appeared with a cocky grin plastered on his face. “Haha! Don't forget about me, Milani! When it's my turn to get married, I'd be counting on you guys to buy me my car and house too!”<br /> <br /> Upon hearing that, Emmanuel instantly exploded with rage.<br /> <br /> “What? Am I marrying your sister or your entire family? I may as well support all of you!”<br /> <br /> Even though Emmanuel had only meant that as an angry remark, Milani decided to hold him to his word. “Hah! You'd better remember what you just said! In that case, I'll leave you to plan and pay for the wedding banquet and honeymoon. Don't tell me you can't afford that...”<br /> <br /> “Get lost! I'd rather marry anybody than you!” Emmanuel retorted as the rage and ferocity he used to experience on the battlefield came flooding back.<br /> <br /> He didn't know what the Zimmermans were playing at, but there was no doubt they were monsters.<br /> <br /> “Look at yourself! How dare you ask me for my hand in marriage! I'd rather marry anybody than you too!” Milani snapped back.<br /> <br /> Given my qualities, I have no problem marrying a rich man, so why should I settle for a man like Emmanuel? I'm only too happy that he wants to fall out with me!<br /> <br /> After giving an exasperated laugh, Emmanuel stood up and stormed off, leaving Alessandra and Roselynn with no choice but to follow suit.<br /> <br /> To their surprise, they had only just stepped out of the Zimmerman residence when three luxury cars pulled up in front of them.<br /> <br /> The Zimmermans quickly popped out to see the commotion and almost dropped their jaws when they saw the car lineup.<br /> <br /> Oh! Those cars are worth tens of millions! What's going on? Since when were the Lowes that fancy?<br /> <br /> Emmanuel, on the other contrary, seemed to recognize one of the cars. Hmm... Didn't I see that car outside the café?<br /> <br /> The next second, Terence stepped out of the car, surrounded by his convoy of suited bodyguards.<br /> <br /> He smiled as he approached Emmanuel and said politely, “I'm here to return the favor, Mr. Lowe, after you helped me outside the café!”<br /> <br /> Needless to say, everyone was stunned.<br /> <br /> Roselynn couldn't hide her excitement and gripped her brother's arm tightly.<br /> <br /> Ah! Isn't this like those rags-to-riches stories?<br /> <br /> The more Emmanuel thought about it, the more he frowned. Wow... Who knew this old man was a millionaire? Could he have intentionally fallen at the café?<br /> <br /> Terence waved his hand, and within seconds, his subordinates had unloaded several boxes of gifts.<br /> <br /> Not only were there precious stones and jewelry, but there were also famous paintings, antiques, and even a Porsche key.<br /> <br /> The total value of the items had to be at least ten million.<br /> <br /> For someone who earned a mere eighty thousand a year, ten million was an eye-watering amount of money that Emmanuel could only dream of!<br /> <br /> Upon witnessing the scene, the Zimmerman family almost collapsed in shock.<br /> <br /> Milani might be a well-dressed woman, but the truth was, her family was just like any other average family. To them, ten million was undoubtedly an astronomical sum!<br /> <br /> If I had known Emmanuel would become a multi-millionaire, I'd have married him straightaway!<br /> <br /> After snapping out of her daze, she smiled and hastily clutched Emmanuel's arm.<br /> <br /> “What's the matter, darling? Oh, wow... You're so kind to help the elderly! I love that about you!”<br /> <br /> “Who's your darling?” Emmanuel asked, embarrassing Milani so much that she wanted to crawl into a hole.<br /> <br /> As though that wasn't enough, he brusquely pushed her away and added, “Didn't you just reject me? Why are you still calling me that?”<br /> <br /> “Uh... I—” Milani muttered, clearly at a loss for words.<br /> <br /> Her family, too, was incredibly frustrated.<br /> <br /> After all, they had just missed out on getting a wealthy son-in-law!<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Alessandra was about to say something when Roselynn tugged at her.<br /> <br /> As much as I want Manny to start a family, I can't let him settle for the horrible Zimmermans! Besides, he's rich now! I'm sure he can find a better woman!<br /> <br /> “Mom, Roselynn, let's go!” Emmanuel said before ushering both women into the car.<br /> <br /> He didn't want to accept the gifts, especially since he knew he hadn't done anything to deserve them. However, it wasn't the time and place to discuss the matter, so he decided to leave instead.<br /> <br /> Once the Lowe family had left, a gust of cold wind swept over the Zimmermans as they seethed silently.<br /> <br /> “How could you have made such remarks earlier, Milani? Do you think it's easy to find a millionaire these days?” Melody berated.<br /> <br /> “W-What should I do now, then?”<br /> <br /> In all honesty, Milani was at a complete loss. She had gone on several blind dates to find a rich husband who could give her a life of luxury.<br /> <br /> Alas, who knew she'd let a multi-millionaire slip right through her fingers?<br /> <br /> “What else can we do? They've already come to our place to ask for your hand in marriage. Can't we do the same?” Melody suggested.<br /> <br /> Jacob, who was just as anxious, instantly exclaimed, “I don't care, Milani! You have to marry that multi-millionaire! When my girlfriend and I get married, you must give us a house and a luxury car! Otherwise, I'll disown you!”<br /> <br /> “Okay, okay. I got it!” Milani replied with a long sigh.<br /> <br /> Argh! Emmanuel and I left on such bad terms... Would he still care about me?<br /> <br /> 👉To continue reading the story for free, download the app and search 📚📚"Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO".

Really bad. I was at the end of my rope.<br /> <br /> I always would get afraid I was going to need to get surgery - it drove me nuts trying to figure out how to stop thinking about it because that's all I did was think about it. And I really think that made it worse<br /> <br /> Then I found my guardian angel - Jane. Ok, she is really just a fellow nurse. <br /> <br /> When she mentioned in a post that she had sciatica and had found relief, I was really interested. Obviously.<br /> <br /> “It was this video I found - real dramatic stuff - and some bizarre experiment…”<br /> <br /> She went on a little, but she said she would send me the link (it is below).<br /> <br /> “I guess what finally convinced me to give it a try was that major hospitals like Mount Sinai Hospital and the University of Rochester Medical Center have put their reputations behind recommending some of the ingredients for sciatica.”<br /> <br /> “Just watch it, there is a guarantee and it is all natural,” she said, “so try it. All I can say, it worked for me.”<br /> <br /> Well, I watched the video - that night - and well, it has been like a mute button. Relief, calmness.<br /> <br /> I want to cry, I am so happy.<br /> <br /> I can sleep in peace at night without any worries.<br /> <br /> I recommend this to anyone who is suffering like I was.<br /> <br /> The link is below.

I take a deep breath and comb my other hand through my hair. Hudson gives my hand another squeeze. Looking up at him with a sad smile.<br /> "On my birthday I found my mate. When I first figured it out who he was I ran back home. He came to the party. Sort of. We went somewhere to talk alone. One thing led to another and we mated," I glanced over to Elliott, his hand is tightly gripping his glass. "After that we got into an argument. He rejected me because he wants to stay with the mate he chose. I've been trying to be OK with this but it got complicated today. I'm pregnant. I was having a heated conversation with Conor about what I wanted to do. Hudson was trying to calm me down, I didn't even know he was home. I gave him the black eye. I'm so incredibly sorry."<br /> Tears streaming down my face and my breathing is erratic. Elliott pushes back from the table and throws his glass at the wall making us all jump.<br /> －－－－－－<br /> I walk into the kitchen where my mom already has a towel for me.<br /> "Thanks Mom, "<br /> "Happy birthday my sweet girl"<br /> She wraps the towel around my shoulders and gives me a big hug. I hear her sniffling and I let go.<br /> "What's wrong, Mom?"<br /> "You're finally 18 and that means you'll be able to find your mate today."<br /> "I'm really not trying to think about it Mom. What is he doesn't want me?" Finding my feet more interesting to look at.<br /> My dad stands up from the stool and walks over to me. He hooks finger underneath my chin, making me look up at him.<br /> "He is going to love you. We raised you to be sweet, kind, caring but fierce when you need to be. Don't let any man tell you otherwise. And happy birthday."<br /> He bent down and pecked my forehead. Walking back in the kitchen to clean up dishes from breakfast.<br /> "I think I'm going to go for a run," I say while drying off my hair.<br /> Walking back up the stairs to my room, I can hear Elliott and Hudson laughing. Grabbing a pair of black sweatpants, a T-shirt and new panties, I quickly get changed in the bathroom. Looking in the mirror to see how bad my hair is. Cringing at the mess, I go to brush my hair out.<br /> Once I'm done I head to the kitchen to quickly grab a bowl of cereal. My mom already has the stuff I like out on the counter for me. I walk over to her and give her a peck on the cheek.<br /> "Where did Dad, Hudson and Elliot runoff to?" I said before taking a huge mouth full of cereal.<br /> "They're just getting something from town. They should be back when you come back from your run."<br /> Nodding my head, I finish eating my breakfast. My mom takes my bowl and put it in the dishwasher.<br /> "Thanks Mom. Shouldn't be too long today. Maisie is restless today. She's making me go crazy in here."<br /> Going out the back door I run to the tree lines. I found the tree that we all hide our clothes when we go for runs. Thankfully it got warmer so this isn't terrible. I quickly strip out of my clothes and start to shift.<br /> It doesn't hurt that much anymore, I've been doing it since I was 16. Everyone in the pack begins to shift then but only when you turn 18 is when you can find your mate.<br /> Shaking my silver fur out, I run deeper into the forest.<br /> "Maisie, why are you so restless?"<br /> "I just have a feeling we are going to meet our mate today"<br /> "I don't wanna get your hopes up if it doesn't happen. Trust me I'm just as nervous and excited but it took Hudson six months to find his and she wasn't even from this pack."<br /> "Let's just try to enjoy the run before the party tonight."<br /> About halfway through my run I stop suddenly. The most intoxicating smell is driving me crazy. It smells like pine trees with sandalwood and a little bit of chocolate.<br /> "That is our mate!"<br /> I follow the smell, running as fast as i can. Once I get to the top of the hill, I can see him. Well I can only see the back of him, but even still he is the most handsome man I have seen. He's not wearing a shirt, his back muscles contract as he does push-ups. His hair shaved on the sides and longer on the top. It's the darkest black I've seen.<br /> At that moment he must smell me because he gets up slowly. All of his muscles are tense as he turns around. Once I can see who he is the excitement drains from my body. No way!<br /> He takes one step toward us. I turn around and run towards home.<br /> "Turn back around! That's our mate!" Maisie whines.<br /> "I know! But we can't be with him and I know you know why."<br /> Maisie whimpers because she understands. Our soul is broken in that moment.<br /> I reached the tree and quickly get changed. I run back into the house trying to keep my tears from falling until I get to my room. My family is in the living room as a sprint past them.<br /> "How was your run?" My dad asks.<br /> Ignoring all of them, I run up the stairs to my bedroom. Slam the door closed and jump in to my bed. Soon as my head hits my pillow, I can't stop the tears now.<br /> Why did it have to be him? He knew for two years and never once said anything to me about it. Of course my mate is Royal.<br /> ...<br /> The party is a blast. Basically half of the pack it's here in the house. Chloe and Emily are doing a great job at keeping my brothers distracted.<br /> Jade and I are dancing in the living room with Conor and Eli. The four of us have been best friends since preschool. Since we graduated high school, we have been inseparable all summer.<br /> While I'm dancing with Conor, I get the feeling that someone is watching me. I try looking around to see who it is but both of my brothers are nowhere to be seen.<br /> "I'm going to go outside for a couple minutes. I need to cool down," I yell at my friends.<br /> Walking through the giant crowd in the living room, I go into the kitchen to grab some water and make my way to the backyard.<br /> There are a couple people outside mingling. They all wish me happy birthday. I walk across the patio and take a seat on the floating chair.<br /> I still feel like someone's watching me. But as I go to stand up, the hairs on the back of my neck stand straight up. I freeze breathing in deeply. That intoxicating smell makes a small shiver run through my body. I slowly turn my head towards the tree line.<br /> Royal is standing against a tree. I can't look away from him. It's like everything else in the world just doesn't exist. He motions for me to follow him as he turns around.<br /> Maisie is hollering at me to follow him. I really want to. Honestly, I did not expect him to show up. That gives me some hope. Maybe Maisie is right, maybe he wants to explain. My heart quickly over powers my mind and I followed him into the woods.<br /> ...<br /> Once I'm all dressed, I turn around to see him facing the opposite direction. All of his muscles are tense and he is shaking. I slowly walk up to him and touch his arm. He shakes off my arm and growls at me. I take a couple steps back.<br /> "We should have never done that," he says clearly angry.<br /> My whole body stiffens. He turns around to look at me.<br /> "You're the one who knew that I was your mate for two years! You never said anything to me! And yet you still stayed with Cassie! You chose her over me!" I snapped back at him.<br /> "You're right I did choose Cassie, because I love her and I have loved her since we were 10 years old! And I will continue to choose Cassie!"<br /> I can't hold back the tears anymore. Keeping my arms at my sides, I dig my finger nails into my palms.<br /> "So you're going to choose her knowing that you have a mate, the other half of your soul, because you've been together for 10 years."<br /> "Yes."<br /> "You are so unbelievably selfish. Denying with the moon goddess wanted, what our wolves need!" I yell at him."So why did you just mate me!?"<br /> "Because my wolf was going insane without you. He wanted me to mark you but I can't do that. I won't do it!" He growls at me, taking a step closer to me.<br /> Tears running down my cheeks as I bend my head down and let out a sob. I can see Royals feet standing in front of me.<br /> "Look at me," He says roughly.<br /> I shake my head no. My whole body trembling for what I know is coming.<br /> He hooks finger underneath my chin and pushes my head up so I'm looking into his eyes. I take a step back so I don't feel the tingling.<br /> "Please. Don't do this," I beg him.<br /> "I, Royal Anderson, reject you Victoria West," he says and walks away.<br /> I fall to my knees, my hand over my heart has I gasp in air. Maisie is whining. Our soul crushed. I let out a mix between a scream and a sob into the forest.<br /> I wait about 15 minutes trying to collect myself. I start to walk back home.<br /> "Why would he do this to us?" Maisie whimpers.<br /> "Because he's an prick. He loves Cassie. He doesn't want us Maisie! We are going to be better off without him," I snapped back at her.<br /> "But you know that we need him."<br /> "We don't need any man, especially one like Royal. We are going to have to be strong together. We will be strong."<br /> Stepping back onto the patio, Jade comes out.<br /> "I have been looking everywhere for yo-" she stops as soon as she sees my face.<br /> Tears start running down my face again. I hug her as tight as I can.<br /> "He rejected me," I cry into her shoulder.<br /> "Let's go upstairs and you can tell me everything while I fix your make up," she says well wiping some of the tears off my face.<br /> We both run upstairs and I tell her everything except who he is. I can't have any of us acting differently around him. Is my family finds out at him, it's going to cause all kinds of problems. He's Alpha and my dad is still one of the head warriors.<br /> Finishing my make up, we had back downstairs. The party just blurs together. My heart is breaking. I know we can get through this. We have to.<br /> ...<br /> 6 weeks later<br /> The first week after Royal rejected me I stayed in bed. My parents were worried, both of my brothers tried to get me to talk about what was wrong and Jade was with me every single day.<br /> After that the weeks have gone by quickly. Jade and I have been out every day. Either at the pool, driving around in the Jeep with Conor and Eli and enjoying the summer.<br /> Every morning we decided to go on runs together. That has been super helpful. Conor and Eli don't know I was rejected. Only Jade knows. I think my dad suspects something happened with my mate but he hasn't asked yet.<br /> The four of us are on our way to the store to pick up some things for the pool. We each pick out a new raft. The boys are going to grab snacks while Jade and I go to find more tanning oil and sunscreen.<br /> We both grab a couple of each and start walking toward the registers.<br /> "Oh wait! While we're here I need to grab more tampons before next week," Jade says that she grabs my arm and pulls me down the aisle.<br /> As she is looking for hers, I'm lost in my own thoughts. I normally get my period before hers. Counting back to the days quickly, trying to figure out how late I am. She finds what she's looking for and tosses it into the cart.<br /> "Are you OK?" She asks.<br /> I look at her, my eyes are wide and I shake my head no. I can't even get the words out. I swallow hard trying to find the nerve to speak. Thank the moon goddess I don't have to, she looks up at me and gasps.<br /> "Oh, you're late," she says with a hand over her mouth.<br /> Conor and Eli find us as we both just stare at each other.<br /> "We got everything we need," Eli says. Dumping everything into the cart.<br /> "Why don't you guys go check out, we both want to go and look at something real quick," Jade quickly says shoving the cart at Conor and shooing them away.<br /> With them quickly gone we both quickly run to get tests. I grab the box with three of them. We check out quickly at the pharmacy and I hide the test in my purse.<br /> We quickly meet up with the boys in the parking lot loading up the Jeep. I get in the driver side and start of the Jeep. Once we are all loaded up, we had back home.<br /> Pulling into the driveway, we all grab bags and head inside. We leave all the snacks out on the kitchen island.<br /> "We're going to go outside and start blowing up the rafts. Go get changed so we can go swimming," Connor says.<br /> We both run upstairs and slam my bedroom door. I grab the test box out of my purse and open it up.<br /> "I feel like sick to my stomach," I tell Jade.<br /> "Well good thing you're already going to be in the bathroom," she deadpans. "Grab your swimsuit, go pee on those and by the time we're both done getting ready they should be ready," Jade says calmly.<br /> I grab my bikini and the three tests, closing the bathroom door. I quickly take all three and to turn them over. Getting changed into my bikini. I can't stop my hands from shaking. Trying to take deep breaths as I pace back-and-forth.<br /> Going up to the counter I turn all three over and look down. I pick one up and read the word, pregnant.<br /> I yell checking the other two.<br /> I open the bathroom door, Jade looks up at me. Couple tears fall down my cheeks and she's instantly hugging me.<br /> "I'm going to be a mom," I say softly as my whole body shakes.<br /> "You are going to be the best mom. You don't need him. He doesn't deserve anything," she replies.<br /> Conor and Eli come in. Stopping dead in their the tracks to try to piece and what's going on. Conor spots the test in my hand and looks up at me. I let go of Jade to stand in front of them.<br /> Eli looks over at Conor but Conor won't take his eyes off of me.<br /> "Are you really?" Conor whispers.<br /> Nodding my head, he instantly grabs me up in a hug. Resting his chin on my head. He pecks the top of my head. He puts both of his hands on the side of my face and makes me look at him, using his thumbs to wipe away my tears.<br /> "Who?" He asks gently.<br /> "My mate. My birthday, I found him. We mated and he did not mark me. He rejected me right after." I say sobbing.<br /> Eli and Conor both growl wildly. I look over at Eli and his eyes are almost black. He runs out of my room as I yelled for him to come back. He slams the front door and shifts. Running to the woods.<br /> The three of us go downstairs silently and start making lunch. I can't stop my hands from shaking. I grabbed everything we need for outside and set it outside on the table.<br /> I sit down in the chair staring off at the tree line waiting for Eli to come back. Jade squeezes my hand.<br /> "He'll be back soon. He just needs to wolf out. He's not mad at you," Jade says.<br /> "No I'm not mad at you. I am mad at that jack hip," Eli says coming over to give me a hug.<br /> He hugs me tightly picking me up. Setting me down gently,pecking my forehead and taking a seat next to Conor. We all eat our lunch.<br /> Grabbing my new floaty, I place it on the edge so I can climb in and rest on it. They join me a couple minutes later.<br /> "I have to tell my family today," I say randomly.<br /> "We can be there when you do, if you want," Jade says and both guys agree.<br /> "No. I have to do this alone. And I have to come up with a plan on what I'm going to do. I can't stay here."<br /> "What do you mean you can't stay here?! Your family is here and we are here!" Conor yells.<br /> "And so is my mate who rejected me for someone else!" I snap back.<br /> I jump off my float and into the water. Swimming over to the steps to get out. I grab my towel and dry off my face.<br /> "You think I want to leave?! Do you think it's going to be easy to say goodbye to you three and my family?! I have to do this alone! The one person who is supposed to be there, who was made to be my other half, mated me, rejected me to be with someone else and now I'm pregnant with his pup! He doesn't get to know, he doesn't deserve to get a say in this kids life anymore!" I holler while sobbing.<br /> All three of them look at me. Not saying a thing. Because they know I'm right. An arm wraps around my shoulders and I growl spinning around and punch whoever just grabbed me in the eye.<br /> All three of them rush out of the pool. Eli scoops me up and carries me over to the recliner. Jade rushed over to who I punched and Conor runs inside for a ice pack.<br /> I'm shaking and I don't know if it's because of the anger or being scared. Conor gives Jade one ice pack then slowly walks over towards me.<br /> "I won't punch you. I don't know what came over me. I'm sorry."<br /> "You just went into protective mama mode on Hudson's hip," Conor says chuckling.<br /> I let Conor wrap my hand in the ice pack. I rest my head on his shoulder.<br /> "Did he hear me yelling?" I whisper.<br /> "Unfortunately, I heard every word," Hudson says.

I quickly left the hotel room, scared to see his embarrassment in the morning.<br /> <br /> One month later — PREGNANCY TEST: POSITIVE<br /> “It’s just you and me from now on my little angel.” I could never tell Logan, not with him seeing me as his little sister.<br /> “Lacey!” Logan burst into a panic waking up in an empty hotel room that morning.<br /> I didn’t expect that the next six years would drive Logan insane.<br /> He was not able to find me, the love of his life…<br /> ---<br /> 'Sometimes the strongest women are the ones who love beyond all faults, cry behind closed doors and fight battles that nobody knows about'<br /> ~ Farzana Baig<br /> <br /> Italy.<br /> Spain.<br /> France.<br /> England.<br /> Australia.<br /> There are so many amazing options but I can only pick one yet whichever one I pick is one which could strongly impact the rest of my life or at least the next few years of my life because this isn't just a vacation, it's more of a temporary staycation.<br /> "Can I help you, ma'am?"<br /> An effeminate voice with a southern twang asks me.<br /> I narrow my eyes from the board on the wall to the young man behind the desk who was looking at me with a big, bright smile on his glossy lips.<br /> "Actually, you can...do you fancy playing Russian roulette with me?"<br /> I ask him with a smile and he looks at me like I've lost my qmind.<br /> "Ma'am...this is an airport, it's not a casino"<br /> He says and I chuckle.<br /> "I know that, sir, I'm just looking to get away from New York for a little while but I'm stuck on where to go"<br /> I say and he rolls his eyes in a jokey and semi-serious kind of way.<br /> "Let me guess, you're running away from a boy?"<br /> "Got it in one"<br /> I say while nodding my head and smiling.<br /> Dylan Tate is definitely a little boy.<br /> Grown men who are mature don't do what he did.<br /> "You really shouldn't let a man run you out of your own home, honey because the moment you give a man that type of power and control, it's hard to get it back"<br /> "Well, it's kind of hard to stay here when my fiance screwed my brother behind my back"<br /> I say angrily while smiling a sad and pained smile as the guy behind the desk gasps dramatically and clutches at his invisible pearls.<br /> "Oh my"<br /> He says as he straightens his jacket and looks at me with a shocked and sympathetic expression.<br /> "Well, if I can make a suggestion...London is always beautiful at this time of year"<br /> London.<br /> I think to myself as I smile a real and genuine smile.<br /> This is the first time in four whole weeks that I've smiled like this.<br /> I've always wanted to visit London, England but for some reason, it just never happened.<br /> "The UK has also got a lot of historical and cultural spots if you're interested in that type of stuff, not to mention their nightlife is lit"<br /> He says the last bit while doing a little twerk before quickly getting himself together and looking around to see if anyone had seen him do it.<br /> "Sorry ma'am, that wasn't professional at all"<br /> "Don't worry about it"<br /> I said while chuckling.<br /> "It looks like I'm going to London then, when does the next flight leave?"<br /> "In twenty minutes, ma'am"<br /> "Great, book me a seat please, oh and make sure it's one way"<br /> I say and the guy looks up at me with sympathetic eyes.<br /> He then arranges my ticket for me and books me on the next flight to London.<br /> I was so excited but I was also feeling really nervous as well, especially when I was handed my ticket and I was told what gate I had to go to.<br /> The reason why I felt this way is because this meant it was real, I was really leaving not just New York but also America, my home and right now with how I'm feeling, it's going to be for good.<br /> I thank the worker who wishes me good luck as I head towards my gate and take a seat letting out a sigh as I did.<br /> The past four weeks have been super freaking crazy and stressful for me and I just can't wait to get away for a little while so that I can get over recent events, get myself together and work on myself mentally.<br /> I take a sip of my water as my mind drifts back to four weeks ago when all of this mess started.<br /> My fiance Dylan Tate and I were hosting our engagement party at the Ritz Carlton and it was supposed to be the party of the century.<br /> The Carpenter, Black and Tate families are the top three most powerful, influential and richest families in New York's elite and the fact that two of these families were joining together through marriage was a big freaking deal but I didn't care about any of that.<br /> I loved Dylan and I had loved him ever since I first set my eyes on him when I was sixteen, we were childhood sweethearts and had dated each other ever since our high school days.<br /> He's the love of my life, the man of my dreams, so when he proposed to me in Bali, the answer was a given and I couldn't have been any happier but then my whole world came crashing down the night of my engagement party, the night that was supposed to be one of the best nights of my life turned into pure hell.<br /> What happened was, Dylan had gone AWOL right before we were supposed to make the official announcement, so I went looking for him but I wasn't expecting to see what I saw when I finally found him.<br /> I found Dylan in our hotel room with my brother Luca and both had nothing on.<br /> I can't even begin to describe to you how painful it was to see the love of my life and my beloved older brother who I love so freaking much entangled the way that they were.<br /> I was so heartbroken and devastated that I didn't even stay to hear their sorry excuses.<br /> I quickly left the room and the hotel altogether because honestly, there's nothing they could say or even do that would be good enough for me to accept or even forgive.<br /> After I left the hotel, I went to a nearby bar where I drank all of my pain and sorrows away.<br /> I ended up getting so freaking drunk that I found myself in a hotel room losing my innocence to some strange guy or at least that's what I thought at the time.<br /> When I woke up the next morning, I realised the guy who I had been intimate with and gave my precious flower to was none other than New York's most eligible bachelor Logan Black who is also the best friend of my eldest brother Justin.<br /> I was in so much shock and I couldn't believe I had been with Logan.<br /> I instantly freaked out and panicked because I didn't know how Logan was going to react when he woke up and realised he'd had been with me, the girl he had always seen as his younger sister and I really didn't wanna to stay to find out, so I quickly got dressed and left the hotel room.<br /> I then went home where of course, I found out I was the villain of my story because I had left my engagement party without a word and had shown up the next morning literally doing the walk of shame.<br /> My parents questioned me about where I had been? who I had been with? why did I leave? how could I embarrass the Carpenter and Tate familys the way that I did? you know all that blah, blah, blah BS.<br /> Of course, Luca and Dylan didn't say anything and they were only too happy to throw me to the wolves which broke my heart even further because they were supposed to love me, yet they didn't care and they stood there allowing me to take the brunt of the blame for last night when it was all their fault.<br /> Anyway, I took all of the abuse and all hell broke loose when I told them that the wedding was off and I didn't want to marry Dylan anymore which angered my parents, more specifically my dad who hit me for the first time in my life and he demanded or I should say he commanded me to still go through with the wedding.<br /> Even that fake piece of trash Dylan acted like a love-sick victim and begged me not to cancel the wedding and even had the nerve to say he'd forgive me, you know ME for MY indiscretions, the cheeky man but I refused to budge even despite my dad's determination for it to still go ahead.<br /> I didn't wanna fight them anymore, so I let them all think they had won, so while everyone was planning the wedding of the century, I was making plans of my own to leave and get away.<br /> I really didn't want to leave because at the end of the day, my family are still my family and I love them so much but I knew I could never forgive them, especially Luca.<br /> Luca was my best friend growing up and I was the closest to him out of all of my brothers which is why this is so devastating to me.<br /> It's also the reason why I stopped myself from publically dragging Luca and Dylan out of the closet and outing them to the world so that everyone would know I wasn't the big, bad wolf in this story because deep down inside of me, I still do love them both and I don't want to hurt either of them.<br /> There's also another reason why I'm leaving or I should say this was the final nail in the coffin if you will and that reason is because I'm pregnant with Logan's baby.<br /> I knew my parents would flip their lids when they found out and they'd either assume Dylan is the father and would use my baby to make the wedding happen sooner or they'd wanna know who the real father is and if they learned Logan is the father then they'd force me to marry him to save face.<br /> I didn't want either of those options, I didn't want Dylan and I didn't want Logan, I just wanted me and my baby, so I packed a bag and grabbed as much cash as I could because I didn't wanna take any cards with me in case they tried to track me down and I headed straight for JFK airport hoping to start a new life.<br /> I was brought out of my thoughts when I heard the boarding call for my flight.<br /> I let out a breath and smiled as I thought to myself this is it whilst placing a hand on my stomach.<br /> "It's just you and me from now on my little angel"<br /> I take a final deep breath in and slowly release it before standing up and grabbing my bags.<br /> I then head towards my gate and my new life in London, England.<br /> Six Years Later...<br /> <br /> "KIDS!!, BREAKFAST IS READY!!"<br /> "OK, MUM!!"<br /> I plate up mine and the kid's breakfasts and place them on the table along with four cups of orange juice and a cup of coffee for myself.<br /> I was grabbing a few condiments for the table when my three babies came barrelling into the room with my youngest son Dayton looking like he was going to a Marvel or DC convention.<br /> "Dayton baby, I thought I told you all to get ready for school?"<br /> "You did and I did"<br /> He said cheekily and I rolled my eyes.<br /> "Son, you can't wear your Batman mask and cape to school"<br /> "Why not? I look cool"<br /> He says and I chuckle.<br /> "Yes I know you do, son but you can't just wear it"<br /> "Why not?"<br /> "Because it's the rules, Dayton, we have to wear our school uniforms and nothing else"<br /> My one and only baby girl says before taking a sip of her drink.<br /> "But Elijah gets to wear his Spiderman costume every day, mum"<br /> "That's because Elijah is autistic, baby and the school are trying to make his school life a little bit easier and make it as comfortable as possible for him"<br /> I tell him for the umpteenth time and he drops his head in defeat.<br /> "Ok, fine...can I wear it after school?"<br /> He asks and I smile.<br /> "Of course, you can"<br /> I bend down and give him a kiss.<br /> "Now come and eat your breakfast before it gets all cold and soggy"<br /> "Ok, mum"<br /> Dayton and I take our seats and my eldest baby, my firstborn Logan couldn't resist making a comment about his brother's attire.<br /> "You look like a nerd, Dayton"<br /> "Says the one who is reading a chemistry book at the breakfast table"<br /> "It's biology actually and it doesn't hurt to want to warm your brain up before school"<br /> "That makes no sense at all"<br /> Dayton says while rolling his eyes.<br /> "Actually it does, Dayton, it's just like when you go to the gym, you warm up first, right? Logan reading a book before school is like a warm-up for him to go and learn"<br /> Why did that make so much sense?.<br /> I mean, don't get me wrong, my babies are smart, actually, they're super smart, so it shouldn't be surprising or shocking to me that they'd say something clever but it is every single time.<br /> "Ok guys, knock it off and eat, please"<br /> We all eat our food and I couldn't keep my eyes off my three bundles of joy as we ate.<br /> It was one of the biggest shocks of my life when I found out I was expecting triplets and I near fainted in the doctor's office, especially when my mind started going into overdrive about things like giving birth but thankfully the pregnancy and the birth went better than I expected because I had my best friend Carmella there with me and she's been there for me ever since.<br /> My kids are my entire life and have been ever since I left New York six years ago.<br /> I've got two handsome boys and a beautiful little girl who have all just turned five years old and they're the lights of my life.<br /> My eldest son is Logan David Junior, yes I named him after his biological father and his paternal grandfather David Black which is something that I never planned on doing at first but as soon as I gave birth to him and I held him for the very first time, I knew that I couldn't give him any other name.<br /> Logan is my quiet child and he's very introverted compared to his siblings, he also loves to learn new things and is always either studying, reading a book, watching educational programmes or looking up something educational on the internet.<br /> He's not as sociable as his brother and sister but he still likes to have fun and hang out with other kids his age just as long as he knows and trusts them.<br /> My baby is also obsessed with science and computers and is constantly learning the ins and outs of them both, hence why he's currently reading a biology book while he's eating his eggs.<br /> All three of my kids are very skilled musically and Logan is one hell of a pianist.<br /> He's won so many awards for it and he even performed at the Royal Albert Hall for the Royal Variety performance in front of the royal family last year which made me one hell of a proud momma wolf.<br /> Then there's my youngest son Dayton James who is named after my father.<br /> Dayton is my little troublemaker, he's my cheeky child who has got one hell of a smartass mouth and he loves to joke around and play pranks on people which I hate and I'm trying to knock it out of him but it's hard, especially when he religiously watches Home Alone because he says the main character Kevin is his idol.<br /> I really should've given Dayton the middle name Liam after my big brother because he's just like his uncle in every way possible, even his laugh is the same as Liam's.<br /> Despite being a Johnny Knoxville in training, Dayton is a mathematician which is something he must've gotten from his dad because I'm dumb as a chicken when it comes to numbers, he also loves the drums which fits perfectly with his personality and lately, he's been taking air guitar lessons with a tutor.<br /> Then there's my little princess, my daughter Teddy Louise who I named after my mom.<br /> Teddy is a little girly girl who is obsessed with Disney, she loves to get dressed up and look pretty but she's also not afraid to get her hands dirty.<br /> She loves it when it rains because she gets to stomp around in puddles but her favourite weather is when it snows because she loves to build snowmen and make snow angels.<br /> Teddy also loves to bake and can make pretty much anything but her favourite thing to bake is cupcakes because she loves to decorate them with different icing and sprinkles.<br /> She's obsessed with many forms of art and loves to learn about the history of different famous artists, especially the likes of Picasso and Van Gogh, they really intrigue her for some reason.<br /> Teddy also loves to play the flute and can play many different beautiful melodies on it but she's not as into it as her older brothers are with their instruments.<br /> All three of my kids are incredibly smart and they attend a special school for the gifted after they were referred there by their previous school when they all started showing signs of being child prodigies.<br /> I always knew my kids were special and were more intelligent than most other kids their ages but I never in my wildest dreams would have ever thought that one let alone all three of my babies would be child prodigies because I always believed they were rare like one in a million type of rare, yet I managed to birth three, that's crazy.<br /> "Mum"<br /> Dayton's cute, adorable voice broke me from my thoughts.<br /> "Yes, baby"<br /> "Can I have some more juice, please?"<br /> "Of course you can, do you two want some more as well?"<br /> I ask Logan and Teddy who nod their hands.<br /> I grab the jug of juice and fill up their glasses before sitting back down in my chair.<br /> "Thanks, mum"<br /> My babies said in unison while smiling and I smiled back at them.<br /> "You're welcome, babies"<br /> I said as I heard a noise coming from the front door which I knew was the mail.<br /> I once again get up from my chair and go to see what junk I've been sent today.<br /> I wasn't expecting anything important because all of my bills have been paid for and are up to date, so I wasn't expecting anything more than just junk mail and takeaway leaflets which they seriously need to stop giving us, the internet is a thing, folks.<br /> I let out a breath as I look through the pile but my eyes narrowed and I was confused/scared when one of the letters caught my attention for several reasons.<br /> The first reason is because of the American stamps and the address which are in the corners of the envelope.<br /> The latter is something the majority of the UK don't do, so that struck me as odd and the second reason is the very familiar handwriting on it which I immediately recognised as my grandfather Joseph's handwriting.<br /> My heart was beating a mile a minute and my anxiety had spiked as I continued to look at the envelope and they got worse as my fingers danced over the Christmas stamp which had been used to seal the letter.<br /> I didn't know what was in the letter but it was enough to make me feel panicked and nervous because nobody from my previous life except for Carmella knows where I live now, so how in on earth has my grandpa found out where I am? and why is he writing to me? what does he want?.<br /> "Mum, we need to go, we're going to be late"<br /> Teddy says and I look up to see all three of my kids standing in the hallway putting on their coats, hats, scarves and gloves.<br /> It's December and the weather is cold which is something I'm used to as a native of New York but in the UK, the mornings always seem really bitter, so I make sure we're all wrapped up warm whenever we leave the house.<br /> I place the pile of letters on the side cabinet and go to put on my coat and accessories before grabbing my bag and making sure I've got everything I need including my phone, purse, house keys and car keys.<br /> "Are you ready to go, babies?"<br /> "Yep"<br /> "Mmm-hmm"<br /> "Yes, mum"<br /> The kids all say at the same time.<br /> "Have you got your book bags and packed lunches?"<br /> I ask them and they all nod their heads.<br /> "Ok, let's go"<br /> We leave our home and head towards the car.<br /> I make sure all of the kids are safely strapped in before getting in myself, we then set off for their school as we sing along to the Christmas songs which were playing on the radio.<br /> Christmas has always been my favourite time of the year and it's also my kids favourite as well.<br /> This time of year is also always really bittersweet for me because Christmas with my family used to be amazing and we'd always have so much fun.<br /> It was the one time of the year when we'd all gather together and stay at my parent's mansion for the entire holiday and we'd celebrate it in style.<br /> I really wish I could go back to those times.<br /> There's nothing I'd love more than for my babies to have a REAL family Christmas with our family maybe even with their father and his family but I highly doubt this will happen anytime soon.<br /> <br /> It's crazy how fast our lives can change within the blink of an eye and sometimes you don't even know it's happening until it's already happened.<br /> The past six years have been a crazy whirlwind and I've had to get used to a lot of changes in my life since I moved to London but now I'm happily settled and living my best life, well, I'm living as great of a life as I possibly can without my beloved family here with me.<br /> There was a time when my family and I were extremely close, we would always see and talk with each other every day and we always did anything and everything for one another but all of that changed and I saw a totally different side to my family after Dylan and Luca's betrayal.<br /> I always used to think I had the perfect family, the perfect parents, the perfect grandparents and the perfect older brothers and in a way, I still feel that way about them but I also can't forget the immediate change in them when I found out my older brother was screwing my fiance.<br /> The betrayal left me a heartbroken mess and it changed my entire life forever, it also changed all of the plans I had made for my future.<br /> Ever since I was a little girl, I always wanted to be a school teacher, I wanted to teach the future generation and prepare them for the next stages of their lives.<br /> A few months before everything happened six years ago, I was offered a place at one of the best colleges in New York to get my teaching degree but then my relationship broke down and the perfect future I had planned with Dylan had gone up in flames along with everything else.<br /> I no longer had any desire to get my teaching degree but I needed to find a steady income so that I could provide for myself and the triplets because I knew my savings which was a very substantial amount of money wouldn't last me forever.<br /> I wasn't used to living like this because I was born a millionaire heiress, I had always lived a life of luxury and I never had to worry about anything, so to now live knowing money was running out was kind of scary, especially since I now had three extra mouths to feed and I didn't want my kids to grow up differently to how I did.<br /> Don't get me wrong I wasn't a spoiled little rich girl or anything like that but I lived a comfortable life with no worries and I wanted the same for my kids as well.<br /> I didn't want them to grow up worrying about things that they shouldn't have to which I know they would've done because they're really smart and they would've immediately sensed when something was wrong.<br /> Anyway, I knew I needed to make some decent money and fast but I didn't know how.<br /> That was until one day when I was watching some soppy rom-com movie which was based on some old book and it unlocked a brand new passion inside of me, a passion which I never knew existed if I'm being perfectly honest with you.<br /> I always loved to read and loved nothing more than to get lost in a good book but I never once saw myself as a writer because I didn't think I was creative enough to be one.<br /> All of that changed as soon as I put pen to paper or my fingers to my laptop I should say and that's when magic happened.<br /> Within two months, I had finished and completed my first book The Billionaire's Secret Baby which later turned into a five-part series when my fans demanded more from me.<br /> The series was a huge hit and before I knew it, I was a world-famous author, I was successful and I was rolling in the money, most of which I've either invested or I've put into different bank accounts for me and my kids for when they're older.<br /> The rest of the money I used to buy us our current home and everything we needed to furnish it and I also bought myself a decent car as well.<br /> I mean, I'm not at Donald Trump's level of rich but I've got enough money for me and the triplets to live happy and comfortable lives together.<br /> Right now I'm in my office working on a new book and a new series but for some strange reason, I can't seem to concentrate and for the first time in my writing career, I've got writer's block.<br /> I let out a sigh as I take off my glasses and rub the bridge of my nose.<br /> This is so frustrating and annoying.<br /> The worst thing for a writer to experience is knowing what you want to write and how you want to write it but being unable to articulate it in the right way and have it make sense.<br /> There have been many times in the past where I've written something and when I've read it back I was baffled. this makes absolutely no sense.<br /> I looked back at the screen and decided I needed to take a break, so I got up and went into the kitchen to make myself a cup of coffee and something to eat.<br /> I didn't really have much of an appetite but I knew if I didn't eat something now then I probably wouldn't have anything to eat until dinner later on which wouldn't do me any good.<br /> You need to be healthy in your mind, body and soul in order to do anything and I can't focus on writing a great story if I'm pushing myself without resting or eating.<br /> I was sitting on the couch and eating my food with the television on in the background which I wasn't watching, it was just on for background noise because I hate silence and that's all I ever seem to have in this house when the kids aren't here.<br /> Anyway, the T.V. quickly caught my attention when the annoying presenter with a high-pitched squeaky voice, who was wearing more make-up than a drag queen mentioned several familiar names which piqued my interest, one of which and the gossip about him almost had me choking on my coffee.<br /> "Hello everyone and welcome to the Hollywood Daily, it's been a busy week for many of the Hollywood elite, more specifically those within the affluent Carpenter and Black families"<br /> The presenter said with a huge grin on her face.<br /> The first piece of news she was gossiping about was my sister-in-law Sabrina launching two new clothing lines, one is a maternity line and one is for kids which will be released after Christmas.<br /> This will be her third and fourth lines that she's released, the first one being a bikini line and the second one was an undergarment line which she worked on with my mom.<br /> "Brace yourselves ladies and gentlemen because the latest announcement from the Carpenter family is one that is going to break all of our precious little hearts, Luca Carpenter the youngest son of James and Louise Carpenter has come out as gay"<br /> This is the news which had me almost choking on my coffee.<br /> What does she mean he's come out as gay?.<br /> Didn't he do that six years ago?.<br /> "According to a statement released earlier today, Luca said it's taken me a very long time to finally accept who and what I am and now I can proudly say that I'm a gay man"<br /> Holy cow.<br /> "But that's not the most shocking part of the statement, the part which has left many of the public including fans of the family baffled and scratching their heads in confusion is when Luca also confessed his undying love for his soulmate and the love of his life Dylan Tate...does that name ring a bell? well, it should do because Dylan is the eldest son and heir of Lachlan and Sandra Tate and he's the former fiance of Luca's younger sister Lacey Carpenter who has been M.I.A for the past six years, are Luca and Dylan the reason for her disappearance from the limelight? has this love story been going on for a lot longer than the Carpenters want us to believe? this is something we may never know unless Luca, Dylan or even Lacey herself comes out and explains it to us"<br /> I can't believe this.<br /> It's a good job I legally changed my name six years ago before I gave birth to my kids because if I didn't, then this could have caused a lot of trouble for me and my kiddies.<br /> "Moving on, we've got everyone's favourite billionaire playboy Logan Black who is as much known for his dating life as he is for his wealth, businesses and modelling career, the fitness model and business mogul is known for having a different woman on his arm every week but is his bachelor life officially over? it seems so after the sexy hunk was spotted shopping at one of New York's most expensive jewellery stores with singer and actress GiGi Addams"<br /> What?.<br /> It hurt my heart to hear about Logan settling down with someone else, especially with a snake like GiGi Addams.<br /> Deep down in my heart, I knew why it hurt me so much but I just didn't want to admit to it.<br /> I had always had a crush on Logan ever since I was a kid and I think somewhere over the years, that crush manifested into something more but I really didn't want to confess to those feelings because he's my older brother's best friend and also because of Dylan, not to mention Logan is everything I hate in a man.<br /> He's cocky and conceited and he thinks if the world doesn't revolve around him then it should or at least that's how he was six years ago, I don't know if he's changed at all since I left the States.<br /> I couldn't help but smile a sad and bittersweet smile as the presenter continued to talk about my family and those who used to be close to me and it really hurt my heart because I miss them so freaking much and I hate hearing about them and what's new in their lives through channels like this.<br /> Changes are a natural part of life but sometimes it's the ones you weren't expecting that cause you the most pain and sorrow but also the most happiness as well.<br /> ...<br /> Open the app and continue reading the rest of the story . 👉<br /> (It will automatically jump to the book
