Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Game: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

      As I sit in first class on the flight back to Texas, all I can think of is Drake. He has been the leading man in my fantasies and also the target of my rage for the past four years. I thought I would outgrow the urge to make him suffer over the years, but I have not. I still remember the hurt and humiliation I felt as he called me a silly little girl. I am a woman now. A curvy, strong, beautiful woman trained in manipulation. My years in Italy had changed me, I am no longer a shy tomboy with overalls and braids. I had left as Izzy and returned as Bella. My Italian family said Izzy was a child’s name and insisted on calling Bella if I refused to use my full name, Isabella. It fits now, in Italy I truly became Bella, a new grown-up version of myself. I look down at my designer dress and smile. It is perfect and looks perfect on me. It is short, stopping mid thigh and it clings to me showing off my ample

      After I got out of the pool, I changed into a sundress and wedges then headed down stairs. When I entered the living room Alpha Drake was pacing with a furrowed brow and firmly set frown.  “What’s wrong?” I asked.  “You’re an alpha,” Drake stated. “Ummm yeah, so?” Drake shook his head, “You know each pack can only have one alpha. You are strong, it could cause problems. And there is another thing.” I assured Drake I was not going to cause problems. I let him know I was just looking to live on the ranch and keep to myself. I had no plans to use my power other than when an assignment required it. I would eventually find my mate and join him with his pack. Drake audibly growled when I mentioned a mate, perhaps because he is still searching for his. It is unusual to be unmated at twenty, normally wolves find their mate shortly after turning ei

     I drift off to sleep on the plane on the way back to Texas, only to awaken after having a very vivid dream or maybe I should say fantasy of Drake. I pour myself a drink and try to relax. I decided to change clothes and freshen up, just in case Drake met me at the airfield.  Silly how I have to remind myself this is all just a game. I catch myself wanting him, wanting to please him, wanting to give myself to him. I have to remember that I want to hurt him, make him regret how he treated me. Lila, my wolf also reacts to Drake so strongly I constantly have to reign in.  I continue to sip the burning alcohol that I am drinking, my excitement continues to grow at the thought of seeing Drake. Nothing could prepare me for what would happen when we landed.     I step through the plane door and I see Drake standing there. My heart fluttered and it to

     I was awake but could not seem to open my eyes just yet, because I seemed very relaxed. I was the most relaxed and peaceful I have been in as long as I could remember.  I was so warm and something heavy was on top of me, actually wrapped around me. I slowly peeled my eyes open and realized much to my horror where I was. I was laying on top of Drake with his strong muscled arms holding me firmly in place. The alpha seemed to be sleeping soundly. His scent swirled around me, filling my senses with an unusual feeling. It was like being home, except this was his bedroom not mine and this definitely was not home, he was not my home. It just couldn’t be. I tried to wiggle loose but it was no use, I was trapped beneath the solid muscles and sheer weight of Drake. I was thinking to myself how to get out when Drake’s chest rumbled and he said,”You don’t, just enjoy it.” How did he know what I was thinking? What should I do? H

        I arrived back at the little airfield near home late at night and unannounced, much to my relief. I am very thankful no one, especially Drake knew I was arriving. There was a truck waiting for me with a note that said thanks for a great job and turning a new asset. It was signed by my commanding officer and said to enjoy the gift. I knew my assignments had the potential to come with pretty nice perks, but I figured it would be awhile before I saw any. I stare at the red extended cab truck and am in awe and appreciation. In the driver's seat I find another envelope with keys and the title in my name.  I slide into lush leather seats and quickly realize this truck has all the extras, including heated and cooled seats. I excitedly start my new truck and drive straight to the ranch.    I have a plan for squashing this mate idea that Dra
