Still Valerie’s POVJanelle called and took me out of the house, and we met with a few of her friends along the way. They are werewolves too, I can smell it on them. I’ve never had time to meet with these girls, I practically spend all my time at work and in school. Who would’ve ever thought that I would still be fired after putting in so much effort in that damn job. I wish I’d never worked there in the first place, I wish I never crossed paths with Alpha Maverick.I think I’m the only one who thinks the Alpha is a jerk. Every other girl here wishes to be in Cameron’s shoes. They would give anything to be by his side. I’m amazed at the way these girls are spending so much money on themselves, just to look good for that rude Alphas party. For crying out loud, the guy is betrothed, he has no time to fool around with anyone of them and even if he did, I’m sure they would most likely get bored with his arrogant attitude.First, Janelle dragged me to the spa for professional head-to-toe m
Mavericks POVYou have no fucking idea how I feel right now. My mate, my Luna is walking towards me, with her arm locked in a guy's hand, smiling excitedly and looking so beautiful. You know, I didn’t see her at first, I mean, I wasn’t even looking out for her, I was not expecting to see her here tonight, not after all the things she has been through today. I was doing my normal duties at the entrance to the banquet hall, I had to show respect to the highest-ranked werewolves by personally welcoming them into my banquet hall. Cameron insisted on standing beside me tonight, she has always loved being in the spotlight, she keeps perching around me like a fucking leech. I would have sent her away this time, I know I am never going to mate with her, I never had any feelings for her in e first place. But I need to keep her close by to avoid suspicion. I’ve always let her hang around me all the time. If I stop doing it now, it will raise a whole lot of questions that I am not yet ready to
Still Mavericks POVI almost laughed out loud when I looked at Dominic’s innocent face. He has no idea that he has been used. When I first told him that I wanted this place to be used for the new hospital, I knew it was going to be the perfect spot because I have already analyzed it carefully before making my decision. But I know the people would still want to hear a few words from him because he is the doctor after all, so he is expected to know more about the hospital than I do. I had him make a short video to assure everyone that we got the perfect spot for the new hospital. To be honest, I never thought I would be using this video to destroy his relationship with my mate. I had no idea that he even had a relationship with her, I never even thought that they would come together to my party and flirt shamelessly in front of me. He has no idea that I chose that building to hurt her, he doesn’t even know that she lives there. I’m sure he would have said something if he did, he certai
Valerie’s POVHis lips were soft, almost silken, and pillowy against my own. I could feel the soft tickle of his breath beneath my nose, his fingers carding through my hair as we breathed each other in. Our bodies pressed together heatedly against the wall, breathing heavily as our lips pressed together. I could taste our shared breath, and feel the thud of our combined heartbeat as we fumbled and groped at each other.His lips were warm and soft. I loved the warmth he provided me, and I melted in his arms, and I parted my lips slightly, allowing his tongue to slip inside, and he prodded my mouth, searching every corner, sucking my tongue and lips. Our tongues tangled and went to war in our locked mouths, battling madly for dominance, with him winning obviously.It went on for a few minutes, w both lost track of time, and we let ourselves to be pulled in by our desires. We only parted for air, then he moved his lips down to my neck and he dropped light feathery kisses down my neck, se
Still Valerie’s POVI couldn’t help shaking my head at her, she is so unbelievable. What is so special about this guy, why are they hell-bent on getting him to notice them. I guess they have no idea that he is a fucking asshole. They must be drawn to him by his good looks and position. Yes, he is so cute, but I can’t throw myself at him this way, he ain’t worth it. If I’m given the chance to pick, I would pick the blue envelope. That would get me a job now, and that would keep me far away from Mr. grumpy, silly Alpha. I would have even preferred to work in the other buildings that are under construction. But I can’t stay jobless and wait for them to finish building it. I need a job as soon as possible. So while the other girls are praying for a white envelope, I am busy praying for a blue one.I felt that tingling on my skin once more, and I knew without being told that he is the one, he must be staring at me again. I’m beginning to think that he likes this game he is playing with me
Still Valerie’s POV“Wait!” He called out to me, stopping me from taking another step. I felt my heart beating faster as I stood in the same spot, dreading the outcome of my angry outburst. I could hear the sound of his heavy footsteps, and I wondered why he asked me to stop, I kept asking myself, is he going to punish me, will he hurt me in front of everyone and call me a liar?“Your attitude suck, Valerie!And if you are going to work with me, you will have to lose that nasty attitude of yours, and you must learn to be submissive and obedient. I won’t have you talk down on me and my company, you must learn to respect me and my woman.” He warned. I gazed at him and his woman like he claims. She has a smug smile on her face as she stood behind him with pride, listening to his words as he warned me to be submissive.“Yes Maverick, I’ll be submissive to you, and I’ll fucking do my job. Just give me the damn job and a fucking roof over my head!” I responded. I had a smile plastered on m
Mavericks POV“Mission accomplished,”That’s all I could say to myself. She pulled a stint on me that I wasn’t expecting, she had nearly ruined my reputation in front of the whole pack, not even minding the important people in the building as well. My family is well known in the society, we dine and party with the elites and wealthy people in the city. The governor's delegates and some important people that matter in this city are also here tonight. Yet she stood on my podium and tried to make me look like a villain. She was so fearless when she stood up to me, and almost smiled in satisfaction as I thanked the moon goddess for giving me such a perfect mate. She is so beautiful, so damn perfect. I had to be so careful so I don’t start smiling like a fucking idiot in front of everyone. I tried so hard to erase every possibility that I could be having any special interest in her. I was so strict and firm in my dealings with her, and I’m sure everyone bought my act because they were so
Still Mavericks POVThis job will bring Valerie and I too close for her comfort. She will always have that fear in her heart that Valerie is about to expose her. She will never let her succeed, she will do everything she can to put a wedge between Val and I, she would use every means at her disposal to make her miserable in that company, she would do everything she can to frustrate all her efforts in the company and there is nothing I can do about it. I can’t try to stop her, I can’t even scold Cameron because of her, can I?That would simply cause more problems between them and also for me as well because I would be attracting the wrong attention to myself. Cameron has been betrothed to me since I became the Alpha, the king was here when I took over from my father and he approves of our union because he wishes to compensate her father for all his hard work and loyalty. Her brother wasn’t chosen as my beta, and her father was not pleased about it. That was why she was chosen as my Lun
