★NEW YORK…

“London” Riley said and Brianna choked on her pizza, coughing violently.

“Oh my! Are you okay?” Riley asked and handed her water. Brianna gulped and tried to calm herself down.

“What?!! London? What London?” She asked as she dropped the cup. At that point, Riley's eyes seemed to wonder a little, why's she so shocked? And how many Londons are there?

“Just because..” Riley started, Brianna edged closer to her as if to remove the information from her belly

“Just because?” Brianna asked

    ★NEW YORK…“Do you love her?” Rowan asked. Something shifted in Derek. He wasn't expecting that question. He was expecting Rowan to ask about something but not that.He turned to Rowan who had his eyes fixed on him.Truthfully, he didn't know if what he felt for Brianna could be classified as love. Of course, he cares about her and enjoys her company, that couldn't be love, but is that what love is about? He wondered He cared for Lisa too, though not as much as he does for Brianna, but he did. He gave her a lot of gifts, made sure she was comfortable, never lacked anything, took her out a few times and also enjoyed her company and it didn't feel like love. What could be so different about Brianna's case?Why would Rowan ask him that? What appeared different? He doesn't know how to love or rather what it means to love someone. He doesn't know how to feel when he's loving someone or what to do that he hasn't done for Lisa.Could it be that he loved Lisa too? No way! Derek knew whateve

    ★NEW YORK…Brianna and Riley were both discharged the following day.Brianna appeared a lot stable like nothing had happened, which was surprising because she felt she was going to die at that instant.The doctor's report states that she passed out due to shock and brain strain which was strange to Brianna because she's been resting a lot and has been well before the situation.Derek drove them home.“Thank you, Derek” Riley said to Derek as she sunk into her bed tiredly.“My pleasure, even though I still don't know what happened between you two” he said, looking between Riley and Brianna.Riley was surprised that Brianna had kept her boyfriend in the dark all along and still didn't say a word so she just kept quiet too, not wanting to be the one to divulge.“At least no one died” Riley said cheerfully instead“Someone lost consciousness, that's close to dying,” Derek argued, Brianna rolled her eyes.“I'm fine, you two. And Derek, thank you so much for everything. I'm fine, I promise,

    ★NEW YORK…Derek got to Rm. 215 and burst the door open with so much vigor. The nurse who was attending to Brianna shivered at the sound. She turned to face Derek, “Who are…” she was about to ask when Derek ran to Brianna and hugged her, to the dismay of the nurse, “Ohh! Who are you, please?” The nurse tried again Brianna laid still but laughed at the nurse's reaction to Derek’s hug. Derek turned to the nurse , “I’m her boyfriend. How is she?” He asked. The nurse’ eyes finally calmed down.She sighed in relief, “She's in no danger, you may calm down” she assured. Derek breathed out in relief too. How scared he was for her. This points to why the Alpha hates the idea of human marriage since they can barely protect themselves but at least she was only ill and anyone could fall sick.He sat on the bed, holding Brianna's hand, she tried to talk but he shushed her. He didn't want her straining, she needed to get enough rest.The nurse finished examining Brianna and nodded, “there's no d

    NEW YORK….Derek was in a meeting with a foreign investor whom he's been trying to get hold of for a long time. He was happy to finally have him show interest in Frostborne. It was basically for a partnership outside America.In-between the meeting, his phone rang, but he ignored it and paid attention to his investor. It rang again.He was sure he turned on the DND option, and the only person that could reach him even when it's on DND was Brianna. His mind snapped.His eyes widened at the realization and he brought out his phone from his pocket. It was indeed Brianna. He immediately felt dizzy, something wasn't right. Not that she doesn’t call more than once or he doesn't miss her calls at all but this particular one felt odd.“Gentlemen, please excuse me” he said to his subordinates, and ran out. Rowan followed him out worriedly. It's unlike Derek to abandon a meeting to answer a call, no matter how important it seemed to be.Derek answered the call once he was out of the hall, “Hel

Have you experienced the weather? Superp! I've always loved London though” Riley added, trying to sound enthusiastic about the idea of moving to London all of a sudden. Brianna just looked at her eyes which appeared sad at this point but she's trying so hard to keep it normal.She was trying to hide her sadness so badly but fail

    ★NEW YORK…The semester was going smoothly for Brianna. Her joy knew no boundaries as it was her very last semester as an undergraduate.“Can't wait to be done with school and face life squarely,” she said to Riley who didn't reply.She turned to her and Riley seemed to be staring at her phone in horror.Brianna walked to her bed, “are you okay?” She asked but Riley's eyes were still glued to her phone, she looked frozen.“Riley! Riley! Riley!” Brianna yelled at her, shaking her to make sure she heard her.Riley let her phone drop on her bed and hugged Brianna so tight that she could barely breathe. They stayed that way for a while.Brianna kept patting her back and at intervals, caressed her hair. Her parents used to do that to her whenever she was scared and Riley looked scared at the moment.After what seemed like forever, Riley let Brianna go. Her eyes were red, misty, puffy and she was sniffling badly.How was she able to cry on her shoulder without a sound? Brianna wondered.Bri
