AlMy heart was hurting and it was showing to a point that Emon could see it and he was hurting too and I hated the fact that I couldn't do anything about it.Emon had been nothing but good to me and seeing him hurt because I couldn't tell him the truth was as hard for me as it was to forget Ed. But I had to.“Love, let's play pool today. Remember the Macau Twins, they think they can beat us." “Babes, how about flying to California this weekend for a fishing trip?" “Do you feel like tacos? We can fly to New Mexico if you want to." "How about we hit Vegas this weekend and return on Sunday afternoon?”That was Emon trying to cheer me up but I just wanted to sleep and forget everything. No. Maybe not forget but pretend that I wasn't hurting and that I was still in that bubble with Emon where I pretended that all was well.I had denied him so many times that I was feeling like an arse.So, today, I try to wake up and smile at him and in fact, I prepare lunch.I don't know where Emon is

AlMy mind is telling me to run and I want to run but a part of me refuses because why should I?Why should I lose the life I have painstakingly built for a whole year with pretense, secret tears and Emon? Why? Because of a man who led me on and finally broke me?Emon can tell that I am not okay and he's here with and for me as sweet as he always is. He is doing all he can to cheer me up from taking me to lunch, to the movies and even biting me gifts.“Babes, you don't seem okay. But you know that I am always here whenever and if you need to talk, right?" He says for the umpteenth time as we take the eggs and bacon on toast and coffee that he has made for breakfast and I smile at him.“I know. Thanks," I say and I can feel that my smile is stiff.We have been having classes for two days now and I have met Ed once and I made sure not to talk to him.After breakfast, we leave and as usual, I am dressed to kill and so is Emon. I don't love him but I am fond of him. He's been there for me

The auditorium will be full soon and we won't get seats," Emon calls from the living room and I look at myself once over in the mirror and join him."How do I look?” I ask him though I already know I look ravishing.Since I came to Nevada, I changed my dressing style and my hair style. I no longer keep the bangs and I now spot a stylish hair style that accentuates my handsome face and my angular jawline.He leans in, pecks my lips and smiles, “When have you ever looked anything but sexy?" He asks and pulls me out.Emon is the most popular boy in our year and everyone knows that he's mine because I take care of my competition with ruthlessness that makes everyone fear me.“Remind me why we have to go again? Can't we just laze in the house?" I ask as Emon takes the driver's seat of my Jeep and I take the gunshot."Because, we are engineering students and we have to be there to see our new professors and be introduced to the new year as we pick the class schedule," h

This emptiness and restlessness isn't something I had banked on.It's moments like these that make me miss the bloodshed when I was the alpha of Still Waters Pack.Those were the days I would immerse myself in killings and battles and business deals until I lost myself and forgot all that had been plaguing me. That's what I did when my mate, Cecil's mom, was killed and it had helped for a while.I was negotiating an oil deal with Nigerians when I got the call. Rogues had infiltrated the pack and several of our pack members were dead or injured. It was my brother.“Where is Athena and Cess?” I asked him in a trembling voice."We haven't found them yet," he said and I saw darkness. My world went dark and my eyes went red.I didn't care that I was with humans as I jumped from the tenth floor and ran. Yes, I ran because a car would have taken me longer to get there.When I got hom
