Jackson left the house after taking a day off from the restaurant. He was inside a cab heading to Lydia's father's house for a meeting. According to the plan that Ophelia had devised yesternight, he was to go to her father's place before she did anything dangerous while she promised to work on his mother instead.He didn't know what she was going to say to her but he hoped for the best. As he was going, he felt nervous because he didn't know what else he was going to face on his side.What if he didn't like him anymore and decided to punish him? What if things wouldn't go the way that they planned? He was sure of one thing and that was, Lydia was going to get mad at him. But he was ready to do whatever it took for himself to regain his freedom.The cab dropped him off at the gate and he paid the money before entering. The security man cross-checked diligently as he was supposed to do before letting him in while someone else brought him to the garden where the man was sitting.He was
Jackson stood to look at his mother who seemed to be arranging something in front of the house. He was squeezing his fingers nervously as he watched her. He was totally fidgeting.He didn't know how he was supposed to approach her because her actions were always unexpected. Rihanna sighed for the third time. Living a lonely life was hell and her husband was not around.Was he even worth being called a husband? Her present family was nothing but trash. There was no peace…no love, just her alone. There was nothing to gain as it was an absolute waste of time.She turned around and saw Jackson standing there, staring back at her. She eyed him without much reaction. One was expecting the other to tell him to come but staying off was probably better because anything dangerous could happen. Rihanna spread her hands open suddenly for him and Jackson's eyes widened. There was that rise of hope in his eyes as he looked from his mother to her hands that were opened in front of him. Rihanna ur
"At least, you were able to spread positivity through your behavior," Ethan said as he walked into the mansion with the ladies. "And I am proud to have given her a mark that she won't forget in her whole lifetime. I also told her that I am watching her. I can't easily forget what she did. I went almost naked on national TV. If I had been totally naked, I would have been going through therapy now and her apologies wouldn't heal me." Agnes complained and flung herself across the chair.A wolf passed by them carrying Sofia on its back. "Anyway, it is all gone now and she has turned a new leaf. Try being friendly towards her." Clara said as she rubbed her tummy subconsciously. "I will try to but I won't hesitate to bring her down to her knees if she goes insane." She threatened. Her phone rang, popping up Brown's name on the screen. "Hey…yeah, we are back. Alright, I will be there. No, there is no need for that, I can come all by myself. Hmm…see you later." She ended the c
"What do you think is going to happen now? Will he accept it? It's been days." Ben asked as he put Sofia to sleep.Lucille was dusting off imaginary dirt off her clothes and then looked at her husband after he mentioned that. "You didn't know?" "Know what?" "Luna has already sent a letter back to them but I think the question now is will Ophelia come or not?" She answered.Ben sighed, "I just don't even know my stand in all of these. Will everything go well for our good? Ethan doesn't seem like he is in a good mood to want to welcome anybody. He has been yelling at everyone at the company." He rubbed his hair.Lucille sighed and put down the big bear toy that she was holding. She went to meet him and wrapped his arms around her waist making him place his head on her tummy. "I know how badly you want to help me. Everyone is as confused as you are so don't hurt yourself that much. The pain is gonna be there but that day, Ophelia did recognize her mistakes and was trying
Ethan settled down as far as he could from Ophelia and he had as many abled people beside him to probably stop him from strangling her to death. There were Clara, Ben, Lucille, and some other abled men for this short mission.The elders were allowed to start talking while Ethan kept shut because it was more advisable to do so. He wasn't in the right state of mind. "We received a letter on your behalf from this young man…" a woman pointed at Jackson while speaking to Ophelia. *Who claimed to be your mate? How true is this?" She asked her.Ophelia blinked, her heart was still racing, all of a sudden this apparent situation of hers opened the door for more headaches, worries, high blood pressure, and whatever one could feel and think about at the point of death. "Yes…yes…he is my mate." "He is human," Lucille said and locked eyes with Ophelia meaningfully. "Yes." She answered with a whisper. "Do you really want to apologize or you just had him do that as a fake? You've
"Just how useless are you exactly?!" I thought that my eardrums were going to explode when my boss yelled at me and I shook my head as you berated me with more insults one after the other until he was breathing heavily and sweat was dripping down his big forehead. "I'm sorry, Sir" I apologize for the millionth time, my face planted to the floor. There was nothing I wanted more in the world than to quit this job. Three months ago when I saw the sign that help was needed at this coffee shop I should have just kept walking by. But I knew that I didn't have a choice, there was no way that I was going to be able to go back to my home if I didn't have something to give to my step mother, and my father was probably going to be too drunk to even defend me and even if he was sober he wouldn't be able to do anything either because that women had him wrapped around her fingers. So I had to endure this. I'll be graduating from high School pretty soon and turning 18. I had already planned out
The next day the news that I had spilt coffee on the Alpha son had spread across the entire school like wildfire, and everywhere I went I was met with dirty looks as if I had committed a colossal crime by defending myself from a pervert. My best friend, Elena, could not believe it. Even though she did not have the first period with me and she hated maths she immediately tracked down my class so sit with me and had the full gist even before the teacher came. "Girl you wouldn't believe it I heard of the craziest rumour in the hallways just now…" She said I should settle down on the seat that was next to me practically shoving the bag that was already there away. And then after saying that she immediately supplied me with an exaggerated version of what happened yesterday, some people said that I had poured hot coffee on him when he was only trying to order, all they said that I also poured on his friends too. But one thing that I liked about all of these stories was that I was port
He looked down at me the sort of games that somebody will give to a cockroach that was crossing the hard part and then he crossed his legs on his seat poking the fried potatoes that he had in front of him with his work before he finally responded. "You think I don't know that the only reason you are apologizing to me is because of your boss, you don't even sound sorry at all." This boy was really pushing my patience what was he expecting me to do for him? to get on my knees and plead with tears? His friends had already brought out their phones and were taking videos.Seriously? I looked back at him while he was in aimlessly poking his food."Yes my boss told me to apologize but I really feel bad about what I did yesterday." He finally planted his fork into a potato and said. " There is only one way you can show me that you are truly apologetic and only one way I'm going to accept it," After saying that he took his precious time showing that fried potato as if that was the last m
