Call on me

/-Isla-/

One minute I was almost certain that he'd lost control and the next, he moved away from me like I was hot iron.

“I'm sorry,” he apologized. “I shouldn't come off on you like that.”

I was gobsmacked. Never in my wildest dreams had I imagined that Roman would apologize to me.

Yet his dstance gave my brain the much needed space to process everything.

“I'll get you something to wear. Don't move,” he said and walked away.

I couldn't even if I wanted to. This man clearly had no idea about the depth of the effect he had on me.

As I stared at his retreating figure, I couldn't help but wonder how a man who had been so dismissive of me in the past was now so… seductive and possessive.

Was it because of the matebond? I certainly hoped not. I wouldn't be able to survive any more of this torture.

I waited there for him, seizing the opportunity to regain my composure and allow my body to return to normal.

In less than ten minutes, he was back in a dress

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   Arrogance

    Chapter 120Arrogance ISLAThroughout that day, Kael didn't show up at Silver Fork. Not even the next day. It got me so worried because I was very certain that Roman was the cause of all this trouble. I was serving my third customer when he finally showed up. He was in his usual fancy suit but his black hair seemed messier than usual.His expression was tight, a permanent frown plastered on his face like everyone here was the cause of his problems. It didn't look like a good time to approach him. He went upstairs without sparing anyone a glance. “Is there anything else you'd like, sir?” I asked the middle-aged man politely. He has been staring at me funny since I came to serve him. His gaze was fixed on my legs, eyes twinkling like he'd never seen anything more spectacular. “Sir?” I called again, swallowing the irritation in my voice. His blue eyes dragged over my body till he finally met my eyes. He ran a hand through his stupid blonde hair. “How about you, sweetheart?” Goose

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   The News

    Chapter 119The News/-Isla-/The next day, I was more than eager to get to work which was very surprising to Elsie. She was still in bed, whining about a hangover when she left me all by myself at the mercy of a bunch of strangers… and Roman.My stomach twisted at the thought of him. I haven't mentioned him to her yet. The thought of him being out there, watching my every move, made my skin crawl. I wasn't sure if I would have preferred him dragging me back to that hellhole instead. Shaking my head, I pulled the grey sweater over my head. How he made me feel didn't matter now. What was important was getting him off my back. And I was going to. I packed my hair in a messy bun and walked over to Elsie who was snoring lightly now. I tapped her for the twentieth time. “Get up, Elsie,” I pulled the pillow from under her bed. “Your salary is going to get deducted if you keep sleeping like this…”A low groan escaped her lips and the lazy ass female rolled over, resuming her precious sl

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   Desperate Times Call For...?

    Chapter 118Desperate Times Call For…?ISLA“Including you?” The question unintentionally slipped from my lips with a slur. “Is that why… you're so closeeee… You want me too… stranger?” Those seafoam eyes got a tint darker, the lust clouding them as I trailed my legs slowly up his thighs. I didn't know what I was doing. Heck, my mind was screaming at me to stop this madness, but my body didn't seem to understand what was wrong. This man clearly wanted me. Every inch of me burned with the faintest touch of his fingers. It was a clear sign that I wanted him too so what was so wrong about it?Why were the warning alarms going off like crazy? Why did I feel like there was something dangerously familiar about him?“Don't tempt me…” he bit the words out, forcing my chin an inch higher until it was just a touch away from his lips. “I am not decent enough to let you get away with it…”My heart skipped, excitement coursing through my veins as heat pooled down. Now I really wanted him.So I m

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   Are you provoking me?

    Chapter 117Are You Provoking Me?/-Isla-/Elsie dragged me to her tiny wardrobe like a wolf on a mission. The moment she flung the doors open, I realised I was in trouble.Her closet was chaos—sequins, leather skirts, tight dresses, boots, crop tops. Things I wouldn’t even dare to touch, let alone wear.She dove into the pile like a treasure hunter, tossing random pieces onto the bed while humming a tune that made my chest tighten with anxiety.“Elsie, some of those clothes look like they belong on a stripper, not me,” I muttered, sitting on the edge of the bed and hugging my knees.“That’s the point.” She straightened, holding up a glittery black dress that was barely the length of my thigh. She pressed it against me, squinting. “Mhm. No, not this one. You’ll look like prey at the wrong kind of party.”I raised a brow. “You’re actually taking this seriously?”“Of course I am. This is a mission, Isla. A rescue operation for your self-esteem.”I groaned, burying my face in my hands. “

  • Alpha Daddy Is My Step Uncle   A crazy idea

    Chapter 116A Crazy Idea/-Isla-/“You've been so jumpy, Isla. Are you alright?” Elsie asked me. I shook my head. How could I feel alright when all I could were eyes everywhere I went?Like someone was freaking watching me. I wasn't sure how to explain it to Elsie. It didn't even make sense saying I had a panic attack because I felt like someone was watching my every move. “I don't know. I just feel anxious,” I told her. “I guess I'm not yet used to being around so many people.” “I see…” she mumbled, leaning back against the bed frame with furrowed brows. Studying me. Her eyes suddenly brightened, a flint of mischief sparkling in them. Goddess, what is this girl thinking about now?“I know how to fix it!” She was off the bed and by my side at an alarming speed I barely caught. My breath hitched as her hands wrapped around me in a death grip. “We should go to Fratana.”“What is that?” I asked, keeping my eyes on the grin that spread across her face. This was a little too suspicious,
