Joan Brandon, an only daughter of her parents, was treated badly in her marriage, but forced to endure all the ill treatment for the sake of her father's business. Three years down the line, her husband presented her with a pre birthday gift — his ex girlfriend, who he introduced as his new wife. Heartbroken and shattered, Joan accepts divorce and gives in to her drunken desire, having sex with a complete stranger she met at her workplace. That single encounter changed her life forever, opening her to a world she never knew existed, and a life she never would have believed she lived in the past. *** Cursed to abhor the touch of a woman after the death of his mate, Roman Graviel, the Lycan ruler of the entire werewolf communities and a revered billionaire in the human communities, lived a long life of ruthlessness and loneliness. Already resigned to his fate, he decided to test different ways to end his miserable life. When one of his experiments successfully knocked him unconscious, he landed in the hospital where he felt the touch of life that aroused all of the feelings he thought he had killed and buried. At that moment, he knew he was never letting her go, not for anything or anyone in the world.
View MoreJoan woke up with a start, only to discover she was sweating profusely even with the AC turned on. Her brows knitted as she wondered why the strange dream she had the day before came back to her. A knock interrupted her thoughts and Grace's voice filtered in. “Jo, are you up?” Before she could respond, Grace opened the door and walked into the room, frowning when she set her eyes on her friend. “You look terrible. Have you been crying? And why are you sweating?” Grace asked in one breath, concern lacing her voice and features. “I'm not sure.” Joan rolled off the bed and headed to the bathroom. She was taken aback when she saw how red her eyes were through the mirror. That was when she understood why Grace had asked her if she had been crying.“Jo, are you okay?” She heard Grace ask from the bedroom and she let out a sigh. She didn't even know if she was okay or not anymore. “Yeah.” She responded from the bathroom. “I'll be out in a minute.” Joan went ahead to wash up before return
At this point, Roman's curiosity was at its peak. Whatever was making Williams this agitated was definitely going to be worth it. For a moment, he glanced at Mrs Elvin and caught her glaring fiercely at Trevor. He shifted his gaze to Trevor, who was already opening the envelope. Somehow, even though the guy was moving at a normal pace, Roman still felt like he was moving too slow, and that was because of his heightened curiosity.The envelope finally gave way, leaving the small piece of paper that it contained. Trevor opened the paper only to find nothing on it. He turned it to check the other side and it was the same.“It's blank.” He revealed, lifting his confused eyes to Williams, who didn't look surprised. However, as soon as the words left Trevor's lips, his face contorted in pain, and he staggered backwards, letting out a groan as he bent over and fell on his knees.Roman sprang to his feet. “What is happening to him?” He asked, glaring at Williams. “Exactly what would have ha
"Why did you want to see me, Mrs Elvin?" Roman probed, watching the omega keenly. He wondered what Williams meant by the note. The woman was clearly a werewolf and had no trace of witch blood running in her veins. However, Williams was no ordinary wolf. If he had suspected something, then Roman knew there has to be something. Williams was never wrong, especially when it came to any matter involving witchcraft."I came to you because I am too ashamed to see Joan. I have wronged her in more ways than I can count." Mrs Elvin started, lowering her eyes as she spoke, only lifting them occasionally to stare briefly at him. "I can't face her and I don't think she will ever forgive me fully. But it's time for me to do the right thing and I think you are in the best position to help me out." She paused.Recalling that Trevor had earlier told him that he could win Joan's heart by winning her mother over to his side, Roman was tempted to ask her what she wanted him to do for her so that he could
“I thought you left,” Trevor said, wearing a slight frown when he saw Williams standing beside Roman's door. Williams was leaning against the wall, not making any attempt to knock on the door. It looked like he was waiting for something or someone. “Am I not allowed to come back?” Williams probed, his expression remained the same — stoic and unreadable.“I never said that. I only asked a question.” Trevor responded tiredly.“That was not a question. That was a statement.” Trevor looked like he couldn't deal anymore, so he refrained from saying anything further. He instead, focused on his mission, which was to inform Roman about the presence of Joan's mother. The woman had been waiting for some time and he expected Roman to be out of his room already. But when he waited a little more and the guy didn't come out, he decided to go remind him since reaching him through the mind link had proved abortive. Roman completely blocked his mind from everyone. Moving to the door, Trevor was ab
At the tone of Williams' voice, and the look on his face, Roman knew he was not going to like what he was about to hear. So he didn't even bother to utter a word. Instead, he raised a brow, waiting for Williams to complete what he wanted to say.“The key to killing you has been found, Rome. And it is buried inside of the woman you married.” Williams revealed, pausing for a moment when he observed Roman's countenance changed slightly. “Elena saw tragedy in your future, avoidable tragedy and she advised we act fast to avoid it. You are too important to the werewolf community, Rome, so the only way to avoid losing you is to eliminate your wife.” Immediately the last line of the sentence dropped from Williams lips, a deadly punch came flying toward his face, one which he barely avoided by moving his head quickly to the side. The wall behind his head received the brunt of the attack as the impact left a depression on it as the surface broke down.Williams widened his eyes in surprise.“Sa
It was already night when they arrived at Camparo, and even later when they arrived at their hotel. Grace couldn't contain her shock when she realized that they would be staying at the penthouse. “Holy smokes, Jo, this is massive!” She exclaimed, looking and walking around the place. Joan couldn't respond because she was even more shocked than Grace. For a moment, she almost believed and accepted that she did misinterpret what Roman said to her. Because, why would he lavish such a huge amount of money to give her the vacation of a lifetime if all he wanted was for her to run away? “Woah… come look at this view.” Grace's voice broke her thoughts, bringing her back to the present. Joan shook her head to rid herself of what just slipped into her mind, and she went to meet Grace. Standing before the floor to ceiling window, the view did not disappoint. It was a majestic view overlooking a picturesque scenery. “Are you sure this guy doesn't love you?” Grace suddenly asked, her eyes no
The atmosphere surrounding the girls dampened after they boarded the plane. Their initial chatty and happy mood switched to a strange melancholy once they were seated comfortably beside each other, lost in their thoughts. “This is risky.” Grace broke the silence, speaking with a low voice, knowing that one of Roman’s men boarded the plane alongside them to provide extra security. Although he sat a distance away from them to afford them privacy and space, Grace still had the need to speak in an almost whisper tone. “I know it is.” Joan responded in the same tone of voice, shutting her eyes. “Then can you not try to escape? I think it's better he lets you go himself instead of you getting into trouble for doing exactly what he said you shouldn't do.” Grace advised in a pleading voice.“I still think he mentioned that I shouldn't escape because he actually wanted me to. If I don't take that offer, I'll be blamed for coming back to him.” Joan insisted and Grace let out a frustrated sig
Trevor furrowed his brows as he watched Irene leave. His head immediately went to work trying to figure out the best way to explain what just happened to the two women behind him, already suspecting they were going to ask. The moment she stepped out and the door was shut, Trevor let out a silent breath.“Cody,” Trevor called out to the door man.“Yes, Boss,” Cody responded, turning away from the door and giving his full attention to Trevor.“No more visitors. And until Roman returns, Irene or anyone in that category is not allowed into the house unless they are with Sir Williams.” “Noted, boss.” Cody gave a nod.Trevor finally stepped away from Joan's front, turning around to face her, and her face was exactly the same way he had imagined it will be. Same with Grace's. Confusion and questions were dancing in her green eyes as she peered fearlessly into his. But although Grace had a similar expression, hers was topped up with a slight look of suspicion. “I'm sorry about that.” Trev
“It was right here. Williams Xander dropped him right here. The man was all bloody and he wasn't moving. I don't know what they did to him because I…” Joan trailed off, narrowing her eyes as something occurred to her.The sun had gone down and Grace was ready to leave the house. They came down the stairs together and when they arrived at the door of the staircase, she pointed to the spot where the unconscious man was dropped last night, telling Grace in a whisper exactly how it happened.“What is it?” Grace asked, noticing how Joan stopped speaking without completing what she was saying initially.“Something has been happening to me. It has happened twice since we left the house last night. I initially didn't take it as something serious but now that I think of it, it's quite strange.” Joan revealed, only now realizing that it didn't feel normal.“What is it?” Grace asked with a concern-laden tone.“I'm not sure how best to explain it. I kind of suddenly ran out of breath and found it
