Chapter: Chapter 42: Back in her bedAntonio stared into her captivating emerald eyes. ‘ Beautiful,’ he thought before his gaze fell on her lips and a soft exhale escaped his lips. Pink, lush, and so inviting. His fingers ached to touch them, feel them against his thumb. But something aches for more. His lips. They ached for a taste, to know what they feel like. He saw from her throat, her gulp, and he smiled. “ Too bad, I'm not in the mood to break rules,” he muttered with a smirk. Eloise returned with a similar smirk. She blinked her eyes softly and said, “Too bad, you ain't my type to break rules with.” With that she pushed him off her and sat up, rolling her eyes and looking away from him. Antonio grinned. A fast one that Eloise missed as she was looking away, and then, the car started moving again. “ So you don't wanna break rules with me?” “ You're not my type,” “ Really? Why don't I believe that, I'm every woman's type.” Eloise scoffed. She turned to him in disbelief, his overconfidence tugg

Chapter: Chapter 41: Not my type “ I can't believe you. How could you do that!?,” Eloise yelled at him,“ Do what?” he asked plainly, like he had no idea what she was talking about.Eloise scoffed, she could feel her blood boiling hot inside her veins.“ You nearly hit someone!” she shouted, pointing to the back as if the man was behind them.He didn't reply immediately, rather, he swirled the wheel, changing direction.“ So now you can speak?” he asked coolly, “Haven't you been giving me cold shoulders?”“ Since when have I ever given you warm shoulders?”“ Fair,” he muttered, “ But don't you think you owe me an apology?”Holly! Molly!Eloise threw herself back on the seat, clenching her fist so hard as she screamed internally. She felt pushed to the edge of losing her cool.‘How can someone be this infuriating!’She screamed in her mind, grunting out loud. Every hair on her body couldn't stand another second with him. “ You left a man there and you're concerned about me not apologizing?!,” she let out the loud, an

Chapter: Chapter 40: His thoughts and actions “You shouldn’t wait there till she gets out. What if she gets off work late?" Mrs. Trumpour said over the phone, “ No, Mum, she could get off work at any time, I really must know where she's been staying all this time,” Tamara replied. She couldn't help but be curious about where Eloise has been apart from being at work. Mason had searched for her everywhere he knew she could be but she was nowhere to be found. “ Come home once you find out,” Mrs. Trumpour said, “ Sure,” “ Alright, bye,” and with that, she hung up. Sighing, Mrs. Trumpour sank deeper into the sofa, displeased with how stressed Tamara was getting over Eloise. It felt familiar, too familiar. She shut her eyes and her mind fell on the image of Camila, Eloise’s mother. Eloise was a replica of her mother, with similar emerald eyes, black shiny hair, flawless skin, and a curvy figure that turns heads. If it were beauty, Camila has it all; if it were intelligence, she's got a degree in that. She was a perfect p

Chapter: Chapter 39: TamaraWhat's she doing here? How did she know she was there? Eloise furrowed her brow as she wondered. She felt a pang in her chest as she looked at her smiling, her fist clenching as if wanting to destroy her every reason to smile. “ She's here,” Laera said smiling, causing Eloise to look at her, “ Did you know she'd be here?” She asked her, “ Not really, but I told her you work here, she said she's been unable to reach you,” Laera replied, “ I'll go get the trouser, you two should catch up.” With that, Laera waved at Tamara before walking away. Eloise bit the inside of her lower lip, her eyes looking away from Tamara as her legs battled for freedom to move. She heard some hastened steps and the next minute, Tamara was wrapping her arms around her shoulder, pulling her into a tight hug. Eloise's body tensed, like a snake coiling around her. “ Elly,” She called softly, “ I was so worried about you.” The genuineness in her voice made Eloise scoff, and she slowly clenched her fist. Ta

Chapter: Chapter 38: Conflicted desiresSteam curled in the air as hot water cascaded down her back, each drop striking the curve of her spine like a rhythmic whisper. Eloise stood still beneath the showerhead, arms resting limply at her sides, head tilted slightly forward. The warmth should have soothed her, but her mind was far from present. The rest of the visit at the grandmother's house went peacefully, with her avoiding Antonio who barely says a word to her since then. She doesn't know if she should be grateful for that or if she should be wary of him. They had left without meeting his brother, who, to Ruby's expectations, was out of the country, somewhere, partying. ‘ Why?’ Eloise muttered under the shower. Thoughts spiraled through her like smoke, restless, uncontainable. She couldn't shake it off. For the first night since she came back in time, she had a peaceful sleep. She knew she had a nightmare that night, but could barely remember what it was, the peaceful feeling afterward had washed away the usual fear an

Chapter: Chapter 37: Snuggle closerAntonio stirred in his sleep, a slight wrinkle pinching his brow, arms folded tightly across his chest. Sleeping on the floor in his own home is the last thing he'd ever thought would happen to him, but after Mrs. Yasmin had shown them the room they'll be sharing, and knowing that disagreeing would be putting their acts in jeopardy, they both had no choice but to agree to share a room. But Eloise had murderously and sternly rebuked him, throwing him a pillow and telling him to take the floor while she kept the bed to herself.Cold seeped into his bones, a soft sound prickled his ears continuously, causing his furrowed brow to deepen. Whimpers. His eyes flew open. He's sure he heard it, the whimpering sounds coming from the... He sat up immediately and his head turned to the jerking body on the bed. It was dark, but he could still see her.Without thinking twice, he climbed onto the bed, surprised to see her reacting that violently to a dream she seemed to be having. Her face, her c

Chapter: Epilogue + New Book Alert (13 months later) Blue was bubbling with so much excitement that Clarisse couldn't help but chuckle. " Your excitement is above the cloud", Clarisse said and she measured her waist, " I know right ", she confirmed and giggled, " Our bride-to-be ", Clarisse winked at her causing her to blush " She's my bride, "Gael said behind them, and everyone laughed. Clarisse poked her tongue at her, " everyone knows", she teased, " I need to inform you guys again ". " Your waist is small, and your hip is big; you have a very nice shape," Clarisse said to Blue moving the tape rule around her. " Thank you, but make sure my wedding gown is more beautiful than Elizabeth's ", " Elizabeth? The senator's wife?", Clarisse asked and burst into laughter, " yes ma'am ", " I'm serious ", " I know, you trust me right?", " Sure", " Then we're good, I'll make a stunning wedding dress for you", " I know you'll make a beautiful one but I want the one that's more beautiful than hers".

That's the smallest amount that her painting was sold, and they're still bidding. She never believed or imagined that her painting would cost that much.Gael grinned and looked at her; his heart felt fulfilled. He looked so happy as more paintings and crafts were placed on display.One of her pants that speaks of undying love that got embraced by nature and death was purchased by Clarisse at seven million dollars.They gave each other a very tight hug when the show was over. " I feel like I'm on top of the sky right now," Blue sobbed, hugging Clarisse."

Chapter: Chapter 184: Semi finale: Tears and regrets ( Still flashback)Clarisse's heart tightened after listening to the recorder; she took a deep breath as tears gathered in her eyes. It was a lot for her, listening to a family of hers plotting her death.Christian pulled her closer into his arms and whispered, "Are you okay?".She smiled bitterly and nodded, her chest getting tight and firm, " they were never my family", she said coldly." They killed my parents and now their daughter is planning to kill me"," Would you have gone truly? If I hadn't played this tape", Marissa asked," I would have, I would have agreed to meet her, but where she gets it wrong was thinking I would move according to her plans if she really wants my forgiveness, she'll come to see me, if we have to meet then I'll book a restaurant and I won't go anywhere without telling my man about it".Marissa sighed, " I don't think she'll want you to tell anyone that you want to meet with her "," That's for sure", Ryan agreed," I said I won't move according to her

Chapter: Chapter 183: Flashback (Flashback)Ryan's words started repeating in her head once again, bringing her awareness to something she had never noticed or something she pretended not to notice. Realizing which relationship she wanted more and which relationship she never wanted to end, she picked up her phone after prioritizing someone she never wanted to think about or imagine losing.She took her phone and dialed Alice's contact; after concluding to meet, she went to take her bath and get dressed before calling Ryan.Praying and wishing he picked, she felt so relieved and happy when he did after the third rang," Hi, Ryan"," Hi", he replied coldly," Can we meet, please? I would come over"," Okay".Her heart ached when he coldly hung up; she swallowed hard, accepting the coldness, and with more desperation, she headed over to his place. After the short drive, she arrived at his house and took a deep breath, exhaling heavily before stepping out of the car.She knocked on his door and he opened the door." He

Chapter: Chapter 182: Taking her by surprise ( very early the next morning)Alice walked out of the house and headed over to where Marissa's car was packed; she opened the door with Marissa's key and reached out for her bag; she opened Marissa's bag and took out the pistol.She smiled heartily at the gun, " beautiful", she uttered and threw the bag back into the car before closing it and heading back into the house.Her stomach grumbled as she stepped in; she went straight to the kitchen counter to make herself a cup of cornflakes and tucked the gun into her back pocket before heading to the room where Clarisse was tied.With her head banging and spinning, she slowly flickered her eyes open to a bright room that nearly blinded her eyes. Slowly, she adjusted her sight to the room light and raised her head to see Alice munching on something; when she took another spoon, she realized it was flakes.Her body felt numb, and she couldn't move; she looked at herself to realize her situation."

Chapter: Chapter 104: She moaned for himEnjoying the blissful moment with the shower hitting his spine, Larsen placed his palm against the wall, his mind revisiting what he noticed about Damien's attack. From the moment he asked for dinner with him, to the moment he saw him together with Elora, and how he kept glancing over at him, he realized.' he likes her,' he said in his mind, ' was he the one trying to kidnap her?'While he was still deep in his thoughts, he heard the sudden burst of the bathroom door, and he turned around to see the frozen Elora.The moment he turned, Elora quickly turned around, her heart racing so fast, her throat finding it hard to swallow, and her body quivering. 'What was I thinking!? Barging into his bathroom? Why was I even worried, and now I'm in this situation!' she screamed in her head." Thought you'd showered."'Ohhh!' Elora mouthed, shivering and feeling a little bit startled by Larsen's voice so close to her ear. She had no idea when he got that close, maybe because her mind was occupi

Chapter: Chapter 103: Wrong timing or just right Larsen rolled his eyes when Damien transformed. He shook his head, not finding it worthy, fighting with someone like him.And just as Damien was about to dash at him, a heavy rain of gunfire fell on the humans holding guns and on standby. He looked around to see swarms of wolves running in and attacking the humans.Damien transformed back to human, standing naked before Larsen, looking around in utmost shock and confusion." Where did all these werewolves come from?" he asked, watching as they were attacking the werewolves siding him." So you literally think I only own just a hotel and a corporation in this world?" Larsen sighed and shook his head. His eyes turned the blazing glare that sent shivers down Damien's spine, " I own the underworld here."With that, he turned and grabbed Elora's wrist, pulling her up and walking out. On their way out stood the Mafia men, standing side by side in their black suits and Kriss guns in their hands. They bowed to him, and he walked past them.

Chapter: Chapter 102: Must take him down Magnus kept pacing to and fro, trying to reach out to Larsen to no avail. His agitation reached a higher level, and his breath became irregular. He stood outside the room door, waiting for the return of Isha with the desperation for the Alpha to pick up his call.He swirled his body upon hearing approaching steps." Isha,"" My lord," she hastened her steps. Her mind was in urgency and joy at how much Magnus relies on her actions, feeling good about how important she is to him at this moment." How is it?"" They're all gathered at your command, but Sir. Magnus..," she feels bad, hesitating to break it to him for fear this may wreck his resolve," Speak!" he commanded harshly," But they're not up to fifty, are you sure we can win this?"Magnus's shoulder dropped. Fifty soldiers? Against hundreds of them?Vicky mumbled some incoherent words as she stirred awake. Her eyeballs scanned the materials and the wall, which it could capture, and it looked so unfamiliar. This isn't her divisi

Chapter: Chapter 101: Taking all bullets Damien looked down at Elora, who was reaching out to the wait staff for another cup of tequila. His nose blaring with a heavy breath, he turned to the tycoon who was present at the meeting they all had, standing next to him, gallant and determined." It's all set right?"" We're prepared, it'll start anytime soon,"" Nothing must go wrong, she mustn't get hurt," he said before tracing his eyes back to Elora." Our only target is him, there's no reason to be afraid."" I'm not," he asserted.The tycoon smirked. The governor couldn't reject the offer of taking Larsen out of the way with their help, knowing he's been an obstacle to achieving their aims. But with him out, the werewolves would accept their offer, they'd get to pry more, slowly and gradually get to know their secrets, and finally dominate, rule over them.The tycoon smiled, remembering what the governor said. 'You guys are such a fool, but well, it works better for us, the Alpha must die tonight.'He said and laughed mania

Chapter: Chapter 100: Drowned into the danceHis eyes bore into hers; he couldn't resist the smile when he saw her blush. The almighty feisty princess blush, he'd do thousands more to see more of that.His heart skipped so hard, he couldn't tear his eyes off her; she's like a sunset he found himself watching. His smile slowly changed, his eyes searching hers for answers.Answers to what she's doing to him, answers to why he's feeling this way, it hit him slowly with warmth in his chest, and it's stirring up something bad, something he's not ready to admit.The sudden play of cool, slow music breaks the air. Elora heaved a sigh as she was finally able to look away." Are we going to stand here like this all night?" she asked, not taking the risk to look at him again." Is that you stylishly inviting me to a dance?"" Of course not," she objected immediately, but it was too late. His hand grabbed hers and pulled her to the dance floor." What are you doing? I can't dance, I'm not ready to...,"" Shhh, don't lie with your pretty li

Chapter: Chapter 99: Larsen's cupcake Larsen sighed inwardly with his mood getting exhausted as another influential woman approached him. He had too many humans to exchange pleasantries with, men that are appreciating his presence at the ball, and the women who are trying to have an audience with him.His charisma not only charms the ladies, but his handsomeness and features causes them to drool and turn in every direction he moves. He has lots of attention, and it's taking some effort for the men to get their women's eyes off him." The human females are no different from the she-wolves," he mumbled to himself." Drink, sir?" a waiter asked, smiling sweetly at him.Without replying, he took a cup of cocktail off the tray she was carrying and took a sip.She couldn't tear her eyes off him; his well-tailored suit only screamed of wealth, it did no justice to his handsomeness, but it did grace his features. His broad shoulders that make feminine fingers ache, his face that looks like an art specially crafted by the creator
