After the conversation I had with Stefan at the kitchen, I excused myself from him. He nodded and didn’t try to stop me from leaving. On my way out, I heard his loud sighs but I couldn’t go back. I thought that the best way to solve my dilemma was to talk with Jacob. I dragged my feet upstairs but honestly, I was nervous as hell. So, when I saw him at the landing of the second floor, I was stunned, and my eyes widened.“Bethany?”“Hello, Jacob,” I smiled at him but I bet that my smile was awkward. Then, I realized I should test something in me. “Make love to me one more time,” I asked him before throwing myself into his open arms. The man was so stunned to speak but when I tried to kiss him, he pushed me away, causing my coffee to spill on the floor. I looked at him in disbelief, but he also narrowed his eyes at m.“No! What do you think you’re doing this early in the morning?”“I just want to confirm something,” I explained.“Fine,” he said while clenching his teeth, and suddenly, J
When Jacob argued with Stefan about me, I wanted to just disappear but Stefan beat me to it. He exited from the dining room and never looked back. “You shouldn’t offended your brother, Jacob,” I reminded him that causing a misunderstanding with his brother wouldn’t benefit him.“He dared to belittle you, sweetheart,” he reasoned out.“Even so! By all means, Stefan was right. A maid shouldn’t eat with you.”“Nonsense. It’s just a meal,” he stated, but when I stared into his eyes, I thought I saw something different.He looked worried or bothered about something but I couldn’t ask him directly about it. The last thing I would do was to provoke him. So, I just observed him while we started having our meal. He didn't say much while we were eating our first breakfast together in Clayland.I wondered if he was enraged at me because he spent most of the time staring at his food. I was tempted to confront him right then and there, but I held off because I was worried it would spoil our meal.
After what happened in the dining room, we resumed eating and occasionally, we would glance at each other and smile. For a moment, I believed he was charming, but I couldn’t forget about the fact that he was an heir to an Alpha, and sooner or later, he would choose his Luna to rule the pack along with him.“I badly needed a shower,” I announced after the meal.He said, “Let's do it together.”“Maybe next time,” I said, and then I walked away. His non-interference with my plans made perfect sense.Once I was in my room, I took a shower by removing all of my clothes. When someone knocked at my door, I was already undressed. However, even though I knew it was Jacob, I couldn't resist the urge to open the door.“Jacob?”When he approached me, I retreated and he snatched the towel from my body without warning. For a while, I was taken aback, especially when I recalled our last sexual encounter.At this moment, no! I couldn’t let him to touch me again! Why was he so insatiable?However, I w
The mention of Amber's name once again ruined my mood. I couldn't eat anymore because despite being hungry. “She’s a good cook,” I admitted.“Of course,” Jacob agreed with me.“I’ll do the dishes,” I offered because it was my job.“No, just leave it,” he ordered.“Fine!” “Wait a minute, Bethany.” After noticing my voice's shakiness, Jacob inquired.I lied and said, “I'm just upset about something.”“Are you acting this way because of Amber? Did you truly fall for Stefan?”“I'll just go outside for a little while.”I didn't hold my breath for a reply. I walked outside the house with a can of beer in my hand and headed for the patio. I didn't need to use my phone's flashlight because the moon was so bright. When I got to the patio, I opened my beer and sat on the swing.I've enjoyed my time in the plantation but lately I've been struggling to make sense of myself. Without fail, my mind kept wandering back to Jacob! I can't stop thinking about him! When Jacob showed up unexpectedly, I r
My heart ached for Jacob, but the thought of falling in love with him still terrified me. “Do you know how much of an impact our skewed relationship has on me? It is difficult to live with a guilty conscience, aren't you aware?”“Are you feeling guilty because you tried to flirt with Stefan?”“No. As for flirting, “I had no plans to do so,” I replied. “You're being self-centered, Bethany.”“I'm so sorry I got involved.” I apologized several times and kept saying, “I'm really sorry,” but Jacob would not accept my apologies. I need you to forgive me, Jacob, please. Make it easier on me, please. You're not the only one who felt bad about this doomed relationship! My apologies for seducing you into making out with me in the first place. I had no idea it would come to this,” I explained but my words seemed to be meaningless.Then he said, “You're also in love with me.”I said, “No, and because I don't love you, you're making things up right now. “I don't love you Jacob,” I respond.“You c
When disaster struck, I pretended to be unwell in order to flee to the second floor. Seeing my expression, they didn't bother to ask. The only one who didn't seem concerned was Jacob. At the end of the day, he knew I wasn't sick!I dashed into my room, undressed, and jumped into the shower as fast as I could. Eventually, the scent of Jacob would dissipate from my body. As soon as I was done taking a shower, I put on something a little sexier.My shoulders were hidden from view by the dress's flowing skirt and stunning plunging neckline. Because it's a loose-fitting garment, it helps to divert attention from my breasts. My wrists were beautifully curled as the sleeves tightened toward the bottom. At first, they were a little baggy. They'll be drawn in by the vibrant red color, as well as the stunning design.As expected, Jacob and I had a tense time together that night. We were unable to enjoy our meal because we were distracted by Amber and Stefan’s presence. I had a sneaking suspicio
***Amber's POV***I took a deep breath and looked in the mirror. My perfectly coiffed brown hair was double-braided, revealing my strong yet worried face. After checking my appearance, my hooded blue eyes stared into nothingness, and another deep breath escaped my lips before walking towards the door.I was on my way to the jail cell where my sister had given up her life. My sister and I were the lowest species in the Dark Furs Pack because we were omegas. Some of the omegas were born as servants, but others, blessed with a beautiful face and luscious body, were required to become the Alpha's child-bearer. Being a servant was a difficult job, but it was safer. Unfortunately, both my sister and I were stunning. I wanted to escape before I reached this age, but how? I didn't have any resources, and I couldn't leave my sister behind. So I stayed in the pack, waiting for the day when the Alpha would call me to his bed.I was too stunned to speak when I learned of my sister's death! I knew
***Amber's Pov***I shivered when I heard Alpha Marcus's name. When I knocked on his door, he yelled from his room. But I had to go through it one more time in the hopes of getting pregnant and being free. The brown hair in a ponytail revealed the Alpha's face. He squinted and waved his hand at me as I approached the door, telling me not to waste his time. A gunshot wound on his handsome face left a long scar extending from just under his left eye to his thin lips and right nostril."What are you looking forward to?" "Undress right now!" He gave the order and then walked slowly towards the enormous bed. "Hmmm," he murmured as I approached, inhaling my scent."Come and satisfy me," he said as he grasped my wrist.Despite knowing the Alpha was a jerk in bed, his rough treatment of my body surprised me! He grabbed me tightly, and I wiggled to free myself. He was more powerful, and he could do whatever he wanted with my body. I was nothing more than another omega, his sex slave and child-
