Estelle

I cried so much that I had no tears left in my eyes.

Swollen eye, head throbbing with pain. All I wanted to do right now was sleep out my misery and forget that a day like this ever happened. It wasn't the extent of Lara’s evil schemes, her lies, or what the school director said that hurt me the most.

It was when I’d insisted that I was Maeve’s mum and she was called into the office to choose her mum. She had pointed to Lara, claiming she didn't know me and now, I was forbidden from

  • Betrayed By The Alpha, Claimed By The Rogue King.    Man with the mask

    Estelle I didn’t expect it but Chris picked me up for lunch. It was as if he had this radar in the air, figured out that I planned on bailing out on him and that was the reason he beat me to it. The first ten minutes of sitting across from each other with that awkward silence lingering between us was the hardest. My mind kept going in circles. Why was he being nice to me? It just seemed out of the blue, considering that the first time we met, he had looked at me in a way that carried a terrifying chill to it. Then he worked magic, breaking the uncomfortable silence, and slowly the tension eased from my shoulders. Chris talked about everything. Childhood memories, how his first shift went, and for someone who ranked really high, he was pretty humble.I wished I could give myself a knock on the head for coming to a hasty conclusion about him and thinking he was the same as that annoying sister of his. Ruby. Chris grin widened, my hand covering my mouth as a light chuckle slipped pa

    Estelle’s P.O.VI had not seen Riordan since that morning. No one spoke about him. He wasn't available during breakfast, dinner and the absence was starting to get to me so bad that I was forced to approach Merida and ask about Riordan. He had to leave for an urgent trip to Barbados. And he left without a single word.Not that it was important but for decency’s sake. Merida said it had to do with Kingdom affairs. Who did she think she was fooling? Did she think that I was born overnight?I had heard the maids gossiping about Miss Blondie—Linda. Something about her being injured and having to fly back to Barbados.Riordan was there too. The image of her on his bed flashed through my head, leaving a bitter taste in my mouth. Were they exes? Friends or—I didn't care.It had nothing to do with me. It was just the pain that the man I worried about left without a goodbye. This was my cue to get my head straight because Riordan was the last person I should be caring about. But, he cared

    Riordan P.O.VThe look of dread on Estelle’s face persisted in the poignant part of my brain. I had never imagined a time when Estelle would have to see that side of me. Well, it has happened. And, the fault was mine. My plan to experiment had backfired, badly. I wanted to test the downside and see how stable I could be for a long time if I stopped depending on the medications. If I could control my beast, then there wouldn't be a need to have any member of the Cassiel family as my physician.That hold they had over me was something I desperately wanted to break. I’d been on those damned medications since I turned eighteen. It all started a week after I found my previous mate, Sierra, and took her to a party. Some guys had harassed her in the bathroom and when she came to me crying, I lost my mind, lost control of the dark side of my wolf and in that moment, I only saw red.The gory image of that night was still stuck in my memory like a slug. Scattered limbs on the tiled floor, bl

    Estelle I woke up sore, numb, and acutely aware of the warm breath tickling my neck. The heavy scent of something sweet, pine wood, and the smell of after-sex still hung in the air. Frozen on the bed, my brain tried to register where I was until I realized that I couldn't move. A strong hand wrapped tightly around my stomach, a leg nestled between mine as I stared down, only to be welcomed by a messy sight of beautiful thick brown hair. Riordan.My heart beat picked up as the warmth of his body seeped into mine. This shouldn't feel good. It shouldn't feel safe. But it did and I didn't know what to think about it other than to drown in this moment.I stilled my breathing, fingers curling into the sheets while I stared at the ceiling.I had wanted to leave last night but typical Riordan stopped me from leaving and forced me to spend the night with him. Now that I remember, I had taken my position at the edge of the bed because I wanted to put as much distance between us as possible.

    Estelle I squeezed my eyes closed, in a bid to hide the subtle mortification that slipped through my features. “I… would… wait… outside… the… door,” I hated how low and cracked my voice came out like a neglected housewife who walked in on her husband cheating. It was just that in this case, Riordan and I were nothing to each other. He was just some deranged Alpha—an unapologetic sadist—who derived joy in watching me suffer. He meant absolutely nothing to me, yet there was this pang of pain in my chest that I should definitely not feel.Were these the early signs of Stockholm syndrome?I whirled around to face Riordan, the raw and intense look in his eyes made my breathing hitch. “Do you need me to get you wine—” I darted my eyes to Miss blondie who beamed with a smile, as my gaze fell to her perfect tits.There was nothing unabashed about the way she looked at me. “Not a fan of wine. Thanks for asking,”Riordan and I’s gazes caught, his jaw tense, a fierce heat radiating from him.

    RiordanShe finally texted me. Willingly.There was this flutter of excitement in my chest as my eyes scanned the message. ‘Thank you for helping me find Maeve. I truly mean that. She loved the Power Wheels—thank you for that as well. I’ll do my best to pay you back for them. Good night.’ The last part of it made me tilt my head, a rough noise of disapproval rumbling deep from my chest. “Estelle…” I growled out a whisper. “What do I do with you?”Preston met me halfway down the hall as I pocketed my phone. His brows pulled into a deep frown and I could already feel the heat of the anger simmering from him. “Really Riordan?”I already knew where this was leading. He was mad that he couldn’t reach me, mad that he didn’t know my whereabouts since I’d disappeared without a word. It was not like I answered to Preston. But with the countless enemies I had, waiting and prowling in the dark for the chance to ambush me, sharing my location was important.If I fall, the Kingdom would fall an

    Estelle I sipped my juice slowly, still numb from the earful I’d gotten from my aunt. Where was she even? Had she stormed out of the hall and returned to the pack after our heated argument?I raised my head—in search of her—only for my heartbeat to waver. Why was everyone’s gaze on me? I had been

    Estelle’s P.O.V Why did it seem like everyone and everything was against me tonight? First it was my aunt, then Maeve’s dad, and now, Lara? I paused for a long minute, considering making a U-turn because I knew that nothing good was going to come out of Lara and me being cramped up in the same

    Estelle’s P.O.VI slammed the door hard behind me, leaning against it, my heart racing hard in my chest as Aunt Danica’s selfish words replayed in my head. I fought back the tears that threatened to slip past my eyelids. How dare she belittle everything I had felt? How could she make it seem like

    Estelle’s P.O.VMy eyes involuntarily fluttered to a rapid blink and for a second I wanted to believe that perhaps I’d misheard her. She introduced herself to me as the future Rogue Queen and from what had happened, she shouldn’t even tolerate me. Was this woman insane?“Pardon?”A dissatisfied gr
