ADELINA'S POV

Sometimes, I wonder if Professor Perkins ever smiles; he always has an ever-present frown on his forehead.

"I am very disappointed at what you did, Miss Marino. You embarrassed the entire department in front of so many distinguished guests.” He started reprimanding me. I was innocent.

His eyes then darted around us, settling on me; I knew he was blaming me for everything. “What do you have to say for yourselves? Not only did you do such a shameful thing, you went ahead to cause a scene and injured a lecturer.” I flinched at his sharp tone.

My nails were digging into my palms trying to keep my emotions in check. His eyes said it all, I was more than certain he had concluded this was all on me.

“I didn't do anything, Kimberly stole my report and swapped it. “ I immediately defended myself.

“She is right. I had worked on the report with Adel, and I am more than certain that the report Kimberly presented is Adel's.” Petra immediately chirped in my defenc

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   106 - Promotion

    ADELINA'S POV The flowers were for Lydia, call it main character syndrome or whatever, I thought it was for me. I was losing my mind. No one would send me flowers unless Viktor wanted to pull a sick joke on me. Sigh, but I was secretly disappointed tho. Which girl didn't like flowers and chocolate? Especially those chocolates that had cream fillings inside the wafers. Now I have a sudden craving for chocolate. It hurts to be single. While my mind was busy thinking about flowers and chocolate, as if I didn't have more serious issues in my life, Sophia kept on bugging Lydia about her mysterious man, but Lydia's lips were sealed. Lydia didn't assign any work to me, so I had to wait for her to finish whatever she was doing. "They are truly pretty," Lydia gushed for the hundredth time, making Sophia roll her eyes. "If you are not going to tell me who the guy is, at least tell Adel the good news," Sophia grumbled, her attention was on her screen but she was disappo

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   105 - surprise at the office

    ADELINA'S POV Last night was still fresh in my head. I could not sleep because of the fear of being watched. Jacintha had been watching me all this time. Why was she so desperate that she rashly attacked me? Was she that desperate? Those were questions I didn't have answers for. A short breath left my lips, my hand reaching out to knock on the door. After knocking softly, I reached out for the door handle to push the door open. "Good Afternoon Mr Simons," I greeted as I stepped into the office. Mr Simons was at his desk, going through something on his laptop. He glanced at me as I entered. His expression was stoic. "How can I help you, Adelina?" He asked me, barely taking his attention from the screen. I adjusted the bag in my hand, then cleared my throat, feeling a bit nervous. "If you are uncomfortable, you can take a seat." He offered "Thank you, sir," I chimed, then took your seat opposite him. His eyes were still staring at me keenly. As if asking me what

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   104 - The Stalker

    ADELINA'S POV Mikhail unlocked the door and glanced at me, who stood rooted in place. His actions puzzled me making it hard to understand why he acts this way. "Your royal highness, Princess Abrielle, do you want me to get on a kneel before you come in, or should I call your friends that are having a fight because of you?" His sassy tone was annoying. I crossed my hands under my bosom with my brow arched at him. "Would you kneel for me if I asked you to?" I taunted him. It was a crazy question. He walked towards me in a few steps, and I subconsciously took a step back. He smirked. "Do you want me to kneel?" His voice had a teasing tone that made me excited yet scared at the same time. I knew he was joking but it was fun to play along. "Maybe, I would love to see a man like you on your knees." My voice drew. He chuckled, finding my words amusing. "You are truly cute, Mishka, but unfortunately, I don't kneel for anyone." He grabbed my chin forcing me to stare

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   103 - Asher always knew

    ADELINA'S POV "What is wrong with you Adel?" I grumbled letting the cold water from the faucet pour over my hands. The tap kept on pouring. I replayed everything in my mind. The faint sense of jealousy, danger and excitement.What was that all about? I wondered. There was something about him, something pulling that made me scared. Something I was unable to resist. He always terrified me, he wasn't someone to be toyed with, yet I was daring enough to push him. Why did he separate us? No that wasn't it. The dance normally requires partners to swap and it was just a coincidence. That wasn't the problem. My hand clutched my chest feeling the turmoil in there. Was it fear or love? Love, the word left me stunned as I stared back at my reflection in the mirror in shock. Was I in love with him? I shook my head to shrug off my thoughts. It wasn't love, how can I get scared of someone I admired but the chills he sends through my spine also excited me. The sink faucet stoppe

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   102 - Getting Rid of Lawrence

    MIKHAIL'S POV None of my warnings got through to her head. "Shit," I cussed, running my finger through my neatly combed hair. I knew Ophelia was going to be a challenge to handle because she thought she could challenge me because of the elders' backing. I didn't care what Ophelia did to Jessica, she would actually be doing me a favour but I couldn't believe I almost lost my shit. "What is wrong with me?" I muttered "Let's pretend like you don't know what the problem is. We can both play dumb." Dear goddess, why did she give me such an annoying wolf? I hissed, rubbing my nose. "You are more annoying Mikhail. Talking to you is vexing." The beast that shared the same mind with me and could read my thoughts sneered. "You bicker like a woman." I sneered at him. He hissed and then retreated. I wasn't expecting Adel to attend with Lawrence. My possessive side just didn't like the thought of my mate being close to another wolf I later joined

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   101 - jealous of the wrong woman

    MIKHAIL'S POV The car ride to the hotel was quiet, I was in no mood to talk to Ophelia, although she had tried to strike up a conversation. "I think it will be best to get the injured warrior back to Lunaria but travelling in his condition will be hard." She kept on talking knowing I was listening. The warrior she was treating was the one injured during the failed assassination attempt. The rogues poisoned him with something that slowed down his healing. Werewolves and Lycans normally can heal on their own unless when poisoned. Ophelia was called to treat the warrior but even she was having an issue discerning the poison. Whatever poison they were using was dangerous. "I will think about it. " I answered as the car rolled onto the red carpet. It was time to put on a show. The elders have been a bit nosy recently in my private matters. Even if I had no plans yet of settling down now, I had to keep those men under control and the way to do so is to play to thei
