Kael.

I hate how she always looks at me like I’m the thing that’s wrong in the world. The way she stood in front of me that evening with her shoulders small and jaw set like she had the right to talk back and it made something ugly and hot ache in my chest.

She asked to take her things from Kurt’s apartment and the name landed in the room with the weight of a slap. Kurt. My manager. The man who runs my club. The man I trust to keep the place clean of trouble.

I clearly fucking remember asking Kurt a few days after that night. I remember his face and the smooth lie he gave me when I asked if he’d seen Scarlet Red. He looked me straight in the eyes and said no. “No idea. No clue.” And now she tells me she’s been staying in his place. That made me clamp down hard.

“You want what?” My voice came out low and flat like I was trying not to lose it right there in front of her.

“My things at Kurt’s place. I left some clothes, books and other stuff I left there.” She said like it was nothing

  • Claimed By His Daddy (Stripper/Nerd)   29- Alive again

    Arielle. I don’t even know how to explain it properly because words don’t seem big enough but the moment Kael said I could go back to school something inside of me cracked open like a shell that had been closed for too long. It was like my lungs finally remembered how to breathe after weeks of drowning in his cold stares and suffocating rules and the way the whole mansion pressed down on me like a damn weight on my chest. I sat there at the dining table, fork in my hand food cooling on my plate and my head spun with just that single word he dropped so carelessly: Go.He hadn’t even looked at me properly when he said it. His phone was pressed to his ear and his voice sharp as knives as he argued about a deal numbers and alliances and threats slipping out of his mouth like it was more important than me. Maybe it was. To him I was probably nothing compared to a pack falling apart. But still he said yes. He allowed me!!!! It didn’t matter if it came out like a command instead of permis

  • Claimed By His Daddy (Stripper/Nerd)   28- Acceptance

    Arielle. The doctor didn’t just let me leave with the sound of that heartbeat stuck in my chest like an echo I couldn’t shake off, no he had to hand me a whole damn paper like I was suddenly being signed into some elite training camp. A list so long and neat and full of names of foods I had never even seen in my life. My eyes scanned down the paper and I almost laughed because it felt like he was speaking a whole other language. Salmon. Almond milk. Blueberries. Kale. Quinoa. Greek yogurt. Avocados. Broccoli sprouts. Oats that weren’t the cheap dusty ones I used to boil with plain water but some fancy rolled ones with names I couldn’t even pronounce. There were even nuts on there (cashewsa nd pistachios and walnuts. Like who the hell eats walnuts in this part of the world? I had lived on instant noodles and whatever cheap food I could grab when I was in the city. Now this man was telling me I should be eating like a queen.I folded the paper quickly and stuffed it into my pocket

  • Claimed By His Daddy (Stripper/Nerd)   27- Fine

    Arielle. I wasn’t even ready for the kind of place I was taken to that afternoon. After lunch one of the maids came to tell me the doctor was waiting, and then I was escorted out of the mansion itself and into a damn car. A whole car ride just to see a clinic inside the Alpha’s property. I swear this place is so big it could be a whole country on its own. I sat there in the back seat hugging my arms like I was about to be taken to prison staring out the window at endless gardens and buildings I hadn’t even noticed before. How the hell could one person own all of this? It made my chest hurt in a weird way. I felt so small. Like an ant walking around in a giant’s palace.When we finally stopped, I almost laughed because the building looked like something out of those fancy hospital dramas. Wide glass doors, white walls that practically screamed don’t you dare touch me with your dirty hands and this sterile coldness that just seeped into my skin. Inside it smelled like lemons and dis

  • Claimed By His Daddy (Stripper/Nerd)   26- More control

    Arielle. The moment I dragged my cartons inside the room my arms felt like they were about to fall off but I didn’t say anything because I didn’t want to give him more reason to mock me. The cartons looked pitiful sitting there against the wall all torn in some places from being carried too much taped and retaped as if that would hide the years of wear. Those cartons had been with me longer than most people in my life but standing inside the Alpha’s mansion they looked smaller ans dirtier like something that didn’t belong in this kind of house. I tried to focus on them anyway arranging them near the corner because I wanted to pretend Kael was still busy downstairs finishing whatever it was he decided to do with that warrior. I thought maybe I had escaped him for the night but I was wrong. I heard the heavy sound of boots behind me, slow but steady and my whole body stiffened before I even turned. He was there. He had followed me.Kael didn’t say anything at first only leaned again

  • Claimed By His Daddy (Stripper/Nerd)   25- His property

    Arielle. Later that night after I had stacked my books on the small desk and tried to sort out notes, I heard a sound I will never forget like the clatter of someone being dragged through the hall. At first I thought it was another man being drunk and loud nothing I needed to bother myself with. But then the sound changed like something heavy hitting the floor and there was yelling. Not that soft ans controlled tone Kael used in the office. Not the Alpha’s voice. This was something cold and hard and full of fury.I slipped out of my room because something in me told me to look. I moved quietly down the corridor and peeked around the door. What I saw almost made me drop to my knees.The warrior who had driven me was on his knees in the courtyard with his hands tied behind him. His uniform were muddied ans his face bleeding from a split lip or a rough shove I couldn’t tell. A few guards stood around them their eyes lowered. Kael stood in front of him like a statue come to life, huge

  • Claimed By His Daddy (Stripper/Nerd)   24- Evil Warrior

    Arielle. I tried so hard to make myself small that day and to be like a shadow that just moved and kept quiet. I pulled the hood of the jacket I had over my head until my face was mostly hidden and kept my bag tight against my chest. The warrior they gave me as an escort didn’t even bother pretending like he felt anything but disgust. He sat up front in the truck witj one elbow on the window like he was taking in the view and every now and then he’d flick his eyes back at me like I was some piece of trash that needed to be watched.“You sure you know where you’re going?” He asked finally his voice loud enough that it sounded like a dare. He didn’t look at me when he said it since he didn’t have to. He already had the look on his face, the one that said he thought I was a liar and trick and stain against the bloodline of the pack.“I’m going to Kurt’s in the eleventh street.” I said my voice small. I wanted to be polite so he wouldn’t hurt me so he’d think I was harmless. But the li
