~Celine~ After I finished in the bathroom, I heard a knock on my door. “Who is it?” I asked, fastening my short towel around my chest firmly as I walked to the door. “Kilhan.” He answered and a wide smile automatically lit up my face. I opened the door and our gazes met. “Good morning,” I uttered, while his eyes lingered on the towel around my body. “We are not doing it this morning,” I added, leaving the door as I walked to my closet. “But you look so sexy in that towel. I can’t stop staring at your smooth thighs.” He answered, embracing me from behind. His hands smoothly glided through my waist, down to my hips. “Alpha Kilhan,” I called, rolling my eyes as I grabbed his hands and got them off my body. “C’mon, just one round.” “Oh please, we’ll end up doing it the whole day. You’re the horniest Alpha I’ve ever met.” “What?” He laughed. “I need to say Hi to your mom this morning, okay? We are not doing it.” I responded, turning to look at him. He heaved a sigh and nodded,
~Alpha Kilhan~ While I was busy with some paperwork in my office, I heard a knock on my door, followed by the voice of my bodyguard. “Alpha Kilhan, Jarius is here to see you.” He said, and immediately, I sprang to my feet. “Let him in,” I answered in a loud voice, abandoning everything I was doing and walking to the sitting area. The door opened and he walked in with a large envelope in his hand. “Alpha Kilhan.” He greeted me with a slight bow. “Jarius. I’m happy to see you again. I wasn’t expecting to see you today.” I answered, gesturing for him to the couch in front of me. “It was never in my plan to come today, but after seeing this, I couldn’t help myself.” He responded, stretching the envelope towards me. I collected it and immediately began to open it. “So you found out who Tima Maria is?” I asked with my eyes glued to the envelope. “Yes, and just like I suspected, it was made up. Her real name is Ashley Grayson, she once lived in New York until the very day she left fo
~Celine~ Bursting out of the house into the rain, I realized that the atmosphere had become darker. Another electrifying lightning zipped across the dark clouds, causing a scream to escape my lips. “C’mon!” Alpha Kilhan yelled in excitement as if he was inured to the loud, crashing thunder. The rain beat my skin so hard, I could hardly move. With my eyes squinted, I watched Alpha Kilhan spread out his arms and swirl. “Join me!” He called out again, stretching his hands towards me. With a grin, I nodded, finally letting go. I ran towards him at full speed, and he hastily lowered himself, ready to receive me. I jumped into his arms and he lifted me from the ground, swirling me in the air. “Alpha Kilhan!” I giggled hard as I could hardly see a thing. “Hold on, I can hardly breathe!” I cried as I could feel my heart thumping against my chest violently. It was still raining heavily, our ears filled with its sound and our noses with its earthy smell. He placed me on the ground and w
~Alpha Kilhan~ After we finished drying our hair, Jessica fell asleep shortly. She complained that she was tired and needed to take a nap. She also mentioned that once she woke up and the rain stopped, she’d head to Xavier’s. ‘Why does he want to see her? Didn’t I teach him enough lessons that night? Does he want more of me?’ I wondered in bottled-up rage. I hated the idea of her going to Xavier, but I said nothing about it. I don’t know why but I just didn’t want him anywhere close to Jessica and Khan was on this with me. He seemed like someone I wouldn’t trust Jessica’s safety with. If she insists on going, then I’ll have to go with her. I picked up her phone and headed back to my office, I put a call across to the number that had sent her an address over the phone. I walked up to my large window, one of my hands tucked in my pocket, and the other was holding the phone. It began to ring and I waited patiently for him to answer the phone. And just as I expected, he did answer
~Celine~ Moaning softly, my heavy eyes parted. I turned to my right side, trying to find another comfortable posture before diving into the slumberland. After readjusting myself, I closed my eyes to sleep again, but then I just couldn’t anymore. In frustration, I finally opened my eyes. My gaze fell on my phone on the bedside table and I reached for it. Unlocking it, I saw I got a message from Xavier already. ‘I bet he’s so mad at me right now.’ “Hey, Celine. I’m sorry but we can’t meet today anymore. Something came up. I’ll let you know when next we’ll meet.” “Hold on…” I muttered, rereading his text to be sure I saw what I saw correctly. “Celine?” My eyes popped wide open. “How does he know I am Celine?” In fear and terror, I began to calculate and evaluate deeply as I tried to figure out how he got to know my name. ‘I have never mentioned anything about my real identity to him. All he knew was that I was the same girl on the bounty poster, and those posters didn’t even hav
~Celine~I fell asleep on Alpha Kilhan’s chest after I couldn’t stop worrying about Alpha Marcus and my father catching up with me. Waking up, I looked around his room to see if everything was still in place, and I saw that my father and his friend were yet to rain hell over the house. I let out a deep sigh and looked across the room for Alpha Kilhan but I couldn’t find him anywhere. I got out of bed and made my way out of his room. As I walked down the hallway, I sighted all the pack members seated in the living room with Alpha Kilhan in front of them. ‘They have a pack meeting today?’ I wondered as I made my way down the stairs and to where the meeting was taking place. ‘Maybe hearing something new and far from my dilemma will make me forget the hell I am in.’ When Alpha Kilhan saw me, a wide smile lit up his face, and Drex, who happened to be saying something, stopped talking. Alpha Kilhan waved at me to move closer to him and I did. He tapped the couch he sat on, telling
~Celine~While I lay down, thinking of how to tell Alpha Kilhan the truth, I felt another urgent urge to puke. I hastily got out of the bed and ran to the bathroom to vomit. My head felt so heavy and I could hardly think straight. After vomiting and washing my face, I fell to the ground and started breathing hard. Not only was my body tired, but also my brain. I couldn’t help but worry about Alpha Kilhan’s reaction when I told him the truth. While still deep in thought, I heard Kiara mutter in a low voice. “Ashley Grayson.” Instantly, the name rang a bell and the face of a familiar woman flashed through my head. My eyes popped wide open and my breathing ceased as I finally recalled who she was. I grabbed onto the ground as I thought hard about it. “Ashley Grayson! She’s my Aunt!” I yelled in my head. My weak and faint body grew weaker at the thought of this. ‘How did it even happen?! How did they meet in the first place?’ I began to ponder. I managed to stand up even though my
~Alpha Kilhan~ I was in the kitchen, reaching for a bottle of water in the fridge when Lucas, one of my Omegas, approached me. “Alpha Kilhan, Jarius is here to see you.” He said, and I creased my brows at that information. “Jarius? He was here like some days ago.” I uttered, and he nodded in agreement. “True. He said he had something very urgent to tell you. He couldn’t wait until the next time he’s supposed to come.” Lucas answered, and I raised my eyebrows as my curiosity spiked. “Really? I should see him then. Can you please get this glass of water to Jessica? She needs it urgently. And please tell her I’ll be there soon.” I said to him, and he nodded. I hastily headed out of the kitchen and walked to my office. Approaching the door, I saw Jarius standing at the door, next to my guards. “Jarius,” I called and he raised his head. When he saw me, he stood upright and bowed. “Good day, Alpha Kilhan.” He greeted me. “Good day. I’m surprised to see you today.” I responded and wa
