登入Hi, I would like to thank you for staying with me. The last couple of months have been terrible for me. Lost my best friend after three failed surgeries, and since then, I've been in a very dark bubble and haven't been able to get myself to write. It took encouragement from my editor to embark on this current project (this book). Still, I've been inconsistent as I was battling with grief. However, I'm back now, and I promise to write and complete this book as quickly as possible. Again, thank you so much.
My entire body goes rigid as I step closer to see the talk of the devil seated comfortably in my father's office.“Why am I here, sir?” I ask my father, not giving a care if this piece of shit Journalist came to him with any of those pictures.If he did, then maybe he wants more money.Thomas Maclewin said he stopped the publication, didn’t he? Stopping the publication means paying some serious money. So, who got that money if not Crosswell?Typical greedy fool who wants to eat both ways."Sit down,” my father motions to the seat, and I force myself to do as he says.My wolf is itching at the edges, wanting me to let him free so he can ruin the stupid journalist. But nah, I can’t lose my cool here.Maybe after this meeting, I’ll track him down and rip him apart.“Julian, Aaron has been a great part of this company.” My father began.But we both know the “great” in his sentence is a big fat lie. Aaron Crosswell is the same journalist who peddled false rumors against our company that w
I’d planned to go straight to Agnes after work. In fact, I packed a couple of outfits I could wear from her place to work the next morning.I feel like a teenager in love. Everything feels so good and new, and I just want to bask in the beauty of her.I am happy, my wolf is happy, every part of me is buzzing with joySo, my day had already been planned out, and I even informed Agnes of my plans, until I got the call from Caesar Corporations that I had an impromptu meeting with their CEO…The road is free from the morning rush-hour traffic, and the weather is at its best. I arrive at Caesar just in time, get received at the reception hall, and am directed to the same office I have now become familiar with.On the way, I already made a mental note of what to expect. It’s either Thomas Maclwein has heard about my breakup with Tania or the meeting might be really related to work.Whichever one it is, my mind is prepared for anything.As I step into Thomas Maclwein’s office, I find him se
My head falls lower, and our foreheads touch."Oh, the fuck," she moans."Say it again." I urge her, even though I am becoming breathless."Oh, Julian."The breathy sound of my name on her lips thrills me. I really want to hear it again and again.Pulling myself up on my knees, I hold her gaze, both of our hands still entwined."Fuck, Aggy, you feel so good around me."I am getting close, but I want to hold out. I know it is going to be this way. I've been away from her too long, and none of my fantasies while she is away can compare to this."I want you like this every day," I growl against her damp skin. "Every time I see you in those pretty little dresses, I want to pull you close and remind you what you do to me.""Fuck." She hisses between clenched teeth. "Why do I love it when you talk to me like that?"I smile against her neck, knowing that she is as helpless to this as I am.Our bodies move together effortlessly, sweat-slicked skin sliding against skin. With each movement, she
I bite my lip again, and a groan escapes from it.This woman is my undoing, but I don’t think she knows it.Everything about her calls to me. Her body, her mind, even her temper.I skim my hands down her sides and up under her dress as we tease and bite at each other's mouths, our moans almost towering over the house.Needing to see more of her, I push my hands up to the hem of her slip-on. In one movement, I pull it up and over her head and stop dead in my tracks at the sight of what lies underneath."Holy shit!" I exclaim and shake my head. "You are trying to kill me."Taking a step back, I lean against the wall for support.Aggy stands before me, in pink lace panties with a satin bow tied at both sides. Her nipples are hard and visible beneath the net-like matching bra, and I can't stop myself from reaching out to touch them."You are so beautiful," I say, running my fingertips along her taut breasts.A visible shiver runs through her as my hand travels upward, across her collarbon
I freeze momentarily before groaning deeply and melting against her lips.Every second of being away from her erupts in that kiss. The longing and ache I felt from her absence are reflected in every sweep of my tongue and brush of my lips.She takes a step forward, wanting to be closer, but it is never enough.My arms go around her, and then suddenly, she steps away. I stare at her in confusion as she turns away from me.I see the panic in her eyes, and instantly become worried. I’m not sure; maybe she’s regretting letting me into her home.She takes a few steps away from me. I want to chase after her, but I can’t. I don’t want to scare her.This is a better version of me, one that I’ve put a lot of work into building. All for her."Aggy,” I call. “Stop, don’t walk away from me, please. Tell me what the problem is, let's talk about it."Fortunately, she stops moving. But she has already created an unreasonable distance between us."Shit," I mutter.Impatient and not liking the distanc
~Julian~Who would have believed that I turned to a stalker because of Agnes Shema?The instance Aldine texted me and hinted that Agnes would be going for a dinner date today, I abandoned every single thing I had for the day and dumped my ass a few meters outside her house in one of my cars I know she wouldn’t recognize.I spent almost four hours waiting for her, and when her Uber arrived, I almost thanked the Moon goddess because I planned to drive her home. And since she didn’t go in her car, that indeed helps with my plan.It really took her walking out of my life for me to realize how precious she is to me.Fifty-six minutes… that’s how long it took before I mustered the courage to step in and ruin her date.Luckily for me, the date was already headed to the gutters. So, I really didn’t have to go to extremes as I already made up my mind that I’m going to create a fucking scene if I have to.…As we drive through Ashmere City, I’m beautifully overwhelmed by Agnes’ presence beside
A surge of complex emotions overwhelms me, my heart beating so fast as I try to think of what my meeting with my dear father would be.After being away for four years, I’m finally home.Stepping onto the front porch, I tap my knuckles on the door in a soft knock.There is no response after a while,
I turn back to Nox, who is eyeing me like he’s struggling to understand my dilemma, and he shrugs.A suffocating feeling starts to crowd me.I have been thinking of calling Jess and convincing her to see me so that we can discuss the issue of my health and that of my mother.But getting blocked ever
~Jess~I surfed through the rest of my day as fast as I could manage, and when I finally made it to the event, the Westwood Royal Hall was already packed full of guests, surprisingly.I thought the event would be a simple little gathering to show the Pack’s welcome of the Lycan king.Instead, Domin
My eyelids feel like they’re stitched shut, and my body feels so heavy that I’m unable to move it when I try to. The scent of an unfamiliar cologne wafts through my nose. A stranger’s oozing breath ghosts over my cheek, and panic instantly sets in as I immediately force my eyes open. A man I’ve n
