Chapter: 70 - CrushThird Person POVWatching Melissa beam at the idea of going out with random men just doesn’t sit right with Andrew. He stays there, completely dumbstruck, waiting for either of them to say that they’re joking.But no such thing comes.In fact, Grandpa seems hyped. More energetic than Andrew has ever seen since Grandpa came back from the Netherlands.“I know just the one,” Grandpa says, raising his hand happily. “I know just the right man who will sweep you off your feet.”Andrew is appalled by what he’s hearing. He looks at Melissa who is all smiles, then back at Grandpa who seems to be cooking up a masterplan with everything that Andrew doesn’t like.“I don’t agree to this,” Andrew says, turning to Melissa again. “Are you really going to start meeting random men like some kind of—”“Don’t even say it, because you and I both know it’s not the same,” she interjects. “I’ll be meeting men vetted by Grandpa, and it’s going to be a lot of fun.”With that, she turns to Grandpa and kisses hi

Chapter: 69 - TreasureMelissa’s POVMy heart jumps because of Grandpa’s reaction. The last thing I want is for him to get angry about my decision. It doesn’t help that Eleanor’s lips are curving ever so slightly in anticipation of my lashing. Andrew is frozen, opening and closing his mouth like a fish out of water.He turns to me angrily, and I know that the spotlight is on me and me alone.I immediately rush over to Grandpa. For a second, I consider lying, but I knew that he won’t appreciate that even more.“Grandpa… yes,” I say, swallowing hard. “It’s true. I have proposed divorce. It’s been a while now. We don’t live together anymore.”Silence fills the room. I can see the flash of disappointment in his face. Guilt rises in my throat like bile. I open my mouth to apologize, but Andrew speaks.“I was and is still against it,” he explains. “But as you can see, she always insists. I’ve been the one who’s determined to see this through to the end. Melissa is exhausting her means trying to get out of it.”Gr

Chapter: 68 - PrayAndrew’s POVNo, I refuse to think about all those things.I’ve been drowning myself in work for the past day, so much so that I have grown unaware of what day it is. All I stare at are papers. The only people I have talked to are clients and my assistants. My eyes are dry and tired. I just want to go to a place that I can call home… without my two families wanting something from me.I know it’s a product of my own mistakes, but I’m exhausted.“Sir?” my secretary calls out to me, holding out a phone. “Miss Ivy wants to talk to you.”I ignore her for a bit, rubbing my temples as I stare at the business card on my desk.A business card for a private investigator.Yes, I’ve been thinking about hiring one to investigate whether or not Melissa’s claims are real.But in the end, I don’t want Melissa to be right.“Sir?” My secretary walks into my office and puts the phone on my desk. “Miss Ivy says that it’s urgent. I can’t hold her off anymore, she’s getting very upset. I’m sorry.”“It’s al

Chapter: 67 - StoryThird Person POVThis isn’t something that Melissa is used to doing. She feels like a mean girl in high school shoving someone in the locker… except that she’s doing it to a mean girl.She finds herself shaking as she starts to walk away, staring at her hands. With a deep breath, she begins to steady herself, and now the hysterics are coming. There’s an urge to laugh, because she finally did it.Melissa finally got her revenge.And who knew it could feel this good?“I better not get used to this feeling,” she tells herself, a little afraid. “I might enjoy this too much.”With that, she leaves the mall, saving all her laughs as she gets into her car. The same car that still has the massive scratch at the side, thanks to Eleanor’s tricks.Now Eleanor is going to be locked up in there for god knows how long, maybe even until the mall closes. Because Melissa highly doubts Ivy is going to come looking for her, especially her stupid business with her crush.For a moment, Melissa wonders if

Chapter: 66 - Sweet RevengeMelissa's POVGrandpa is right. Even after a millisecond after he let go of those words, I knew that he was right. I've been stomped on for most of my life, and my marriage to Andrew was something that I thought would turn things around for me. Don't get me wrong, I went into it knowing that I wasn't the one he loved, but I had hope.That was the thing that I had before that I didn't know. Hope. Back then, I actually had something to lose. My marriage, my daughter.But now, Allie is gone. Andrew is so deep in denial. My marriage is nothing but a sham, a bridge on its final days, one gust of wind away from breaking.So why have I been holding back? Why have I tried to be kind?"It's not right for you to stay this way," Grandpa says, staring at me with his intense eyes. Searing the message into me. "Melissa... I know that you're a good person. You always have been. From the very beginning you had a soft heart and that's why I vowed to protect your best interests. But I don’t know how

Chapter: 65 - Fight BackThird Person POV“I don’t know,” Eleanor says, biting her lip and conjuring some well-timed tears for Andrew. “She told me to fuck off and leave her alone. I don’t think she wants to admit that she’s wrong. I’m really sorry. I tried to convince her, but she really won’t come out!”Andrew paces the floor. It’s not really in character for Melissa to be this stubborn, but then again, what does he know about her? What does he know about this new version of her?The lies should stop. He’s willing to work things out if she just comes clean about so many things. And yet she can’t even do that even if it means freeing herself.“What do I do?” Eleanor asks. “Should I go back in?”“No,” Andrew says absently. “I’ll go back in there later. I’ll give Melissa maybe fifteen minutes. She will change her mind.”Eleanor blanches. Fifteen minutes? Giving Melissa a chance? Really?He keeps pacing the floor and she knows that she won’t be able to get to him in this state of mind. She needs to stop him fro

His Regret: The Alpha King Wants Me Now
“You rejected me,” I spit out, pushing his hands off me. “You humiliated me. You said you already loved someone else. So why are you doing this to me now?”
Fire dances in his eyes. “That wasn’t love. What I feel for you now is love.”
“And why do you think I can still love you after all that?”
“Because I’ll earn it,” he growls, towering over me, cornering me against the wall. He pins me flat with his body, letting me feel his raging hardness. “Day by day, little by little. I’m going to make you love me.”

Chapter: One Hundred Sixty-TwoMONICA.“Come on, be careful now!” Roman instructs August and another soldier, who are carrying Riva along the clear path in the woods, both heaving and cursing under their breaths. “We’re almost there. Don’t drop her; her bindings might loosen.”Although this is a valid point, I hardly think it will happen. They bound Riva like a spring roll.Thick ropes are connecting her bound wrists to her bound ankles. A flat, dense gag is placed on her mouth. The entire upper half of her head is covered in a layer of fabric like a turban. Whoever did this to her knows what they’re doing. Not even five separate drops can make those restraints loosen.Still, Roman is being extra careful. As we approach the warehouse, the first thing I see is the light. Some people are actually inside the place, waiting for our arrival. There are about two dozen people, all heavily armed like they’re preparing to battle an entire army unit. And placed inside the warehouse is a huge metal chair, where they set Riv

Chapter: One Hundred Sixty-OneMONICA.God. What do I do with Roman?I watch as he takes charge of the events, purposefully ignoring me as I stare at him. I know that he just wants to put an end to all of this and maybe I’m just being a little bitch, but I don’t want to take risks anymore. I’m scared out of my wits here.“Just relax,” he even tells me, which just makes me angry more than being scared."No." I shake my head continuously as I watch the men carry Riva’s unconscious body inside the van. "I can't believe this. I can't believe we're all doing this." “Neither can I, to be honest,” August suddenly puts in, getting inside the backseat of the other van, behind me and Roman. “I mean, I get your point, Roman, but this is just bad. This bitch is going to kill us if she gets on the loose. Didn’t you see what she just did?”“I know it doesn’t sound all that safe, but please just trust me,” Roman says, getting into the front and revving the engine. However, instead of driving the vehicle, he shoots one more cauti

Chapter: One Hundred SixtyMONICA.Energy rushes in my body, filling me with strength I never knew I was capable of until now. I’m at my peak, and nothing can stop me at this point.Before I knew it, my wolf form claws Riva in the face, pushes her in the ground, and mauls her with its teeth. One motion to sink its teeth into her shoulder and render her unconscious.Slowly, my wolf gives me back the control and I'm human once again, standing before Riva, who's lying in the middle of the clearing, her eyes closed.All around her, all the fallen soldiers begin to stir. It's like they were only unconscious because she can control them. I almost fall back in relief after knowing that none of them died."Monica!" Roman comes bounding towards me as I stare in numb shock. He wraps his arms around me and hugs me. "Monica, that was fantastic. You saved all of us.”Did I, really? I wonder darkly. Still, I just kiss his lips softly as everyone crowds around me. "Let's get out of here.”As we all get ready to leave, I can’t

Chapter: One Hundred Fifty-NineMONICA."Finally, Monica," she croons. "It definitely took you long enough, but I'm happy you're finally able to join the fight. It's overdue.”My body is growing fast, but as I land on the ground, I make sure not to land on any of the fallen soldiers. My fur is shining silver, impenetrable by any weapon. Riva just watches me with amusement, like I’m a child trying to join a game. She even breaks into a laugh as I growl at her.She tightens her grip around Roman, like she’s holding him hostage. “Do you really want to attack me and risk losing him?”Speckles of the poison in her mouth splatter on Roman, burning holes through his clothes. The spots on his skin that get sprinkled with poison begin to bleed.Whatever she has going on is dangerous. She’s completely immune to it, but it looks like the type of poison that will eat him from the inside.I would rather take the chance of possibly crashing into Roman than having him take that poison in his body.I leap at Riva at last, but she c

Chapter: One Hundred Fifty-EightMONICA.With that, Riva sprints towards the closest soldier, pulls his bow from him, and hits another soldier with it—all in one blink. Then he kicks another soldier’s legs, making him scream and crumple to the ground. Now it’s only me, Roman, and August in our team. And I’m rendered useless.Roman must have noticed that something is up with me, because he whispers to August, “Stay with your mother. I got this.”I want to yell in protest, but my jaw has clamped itself shut. August obediently backs away and stays by my side, and thankfully Riva doesn’t attack him. She regards him with narrowed eyes and a smirk, though. And I don’t feel comfortable with that. Still, I can’t do anything. I’m paralyzed.“I guess you want a one on one, huh, Mister Alpha King?” Riva asks, tilting her head on one side like she’s talking to a puppy. “Do you wish to test your abilities against me?”Roman’s jaw tightens. “I’ll end you.”“That’s cute,” Riva answers nonchalantly. “I’ve seen you fight, Mister Al

Chapter: One Hundred Fifty-SevenMONICA.It’s not easy moving around in the palace, even though it’s the dead of the night. I don’t bother coming back to my room. I just get some clothes in our martial bedroom, gathering some weapons in case something happens.And with that, I sneak out of the palace before the sun can come up and anyone would come looking to find me.The early morning is cold. I can see my breath fogging up in front of me as I swerve deep into the forest. I rub my hands together to warm myself up, taking a deep breath to muster the courage to go deeper than the edge.But before I can go through with it, I suddenly hear footsteps behind me.I wheel around, only to find Roman running towards me. My mind immediately jumps to the worst, only to see that Roman is frowning at me with concern as he runs.“Monica, what the hell are you doing here?” he demands as he gets closer to me. “I thought… I was looking for you!”The shock of seeing him here and still himself makes me freeze. I look around us to check
