Onyx's POV

‘There was more to Briar than meets the eye.’

That was the conclusion I came down to, after yet another encounter with her.

She was… different.

I would say weird, but then weird sounds a bit too much, since she's successfully caught my attention without even trying.

So yeah, different is the word.

She was the first woman I've ever met that would flinch from a mere brush of the safest part of the human skin.

And not just a contact from any man.

It had to be Me.

Other females would g

    Lucas’ POV The moment my supposed excuse of a father raised his hand at Amelia, I saw red. In every fucking dimension.I acted purely on impulse… maybe even reflex. My hand shot out so fast, no one saw it coming. Then I held that hand of his in a death grip.How dare he try to hit her? And no less, right in front of me?!A big fucking mistake on his path, if you ask me.“What the hell are you doing, Lucas?” My father, Former Alpha Victor thundered, trying to no avail to snatch his hand from my grip.“That's a question I should be asking you, don't you think, old man?” I asked, raising a questioning brow at him, as my fingers tightened angrily around his grip. “Trying to hit a woman in broad daylight, without a single twinge of shame clawing at your conscience?”“Who are you to preach about conscience to anyone, Lucas?” he asked“I might not be capable of preaching about conscience to anyone else, but to you, no one is above that duty, Father. Fucking hell…” I yelled, cursing as my th

  • Married to Him, Saved by his Brother   039.

    Amelia’s POV I woke up to multiple notification noises from my phone. It was annoyingly continuous, you'd think a zombie apocalypse broke out and I was just here sleeping when I should be running for my life.I grabbed the phone from my nightstand and went through each of the notifications, in the order of the ones that caught my attention first.But the more I checked out the words, the more it made no sense.‘Isn’t it the first time the company would be under investigation?’‘They always claim to be the high Royal family above any investigations, what changed?’‘It was an inside order, obviously. No one unrelated to the royal family can make that happen’‘That’s crazy!’Days and days of being overdramatic and all it takes to calm her fucking nerves is an order to go out to the company with Gabriela and I? It seemed hilarious and ridiculous at first. But I didn't think I could say the same after seeing her walk out of the house all dressed and dolled up like a goddess… No, I didn't

  • Married to Him, Saved by his Brother   038.

    Amelia's POV The first thing that seeped into my subconsciousness were voices… Two. Both males.While one sounded strange, the other was a voice I recognized too well.Perhaps I was dreaming.Desperation does a lot of things to someone. Like imagining there wasn't just one person but two with you within the walls of an abandoned restroom where you were locked in.But then I remembered having a dream before this. In the dream, I heard locks clicking, the blurry image of someone that seemed very much like Lucas, even the twinge of desperation as he called my name, hoping I would talk to him, and a blinding light that forced my eyes back closed.But it seemed so real, so realistic that I could feel his touch. I could feel him pulling me out of that horrid darkness.And I embraced the light, even though immune systems “I should fucking murder that bastard” Lucas muttered under his breath, so quietly I wouldn't have heard it if my head had pounded a little louder. Another tear drop esc

    Amelia's POV Damian's angry voice followed me, yelling at me to stop as I walked out of his sight but I didn't even spare him a single glance. 'Since when has our Alpha become this soft and indecisive?' I heard the murmur as I walked out of the general office and a tiny smile grazed my lips. "Since he realized that his only true wife was Amelia Crosswyn for as long as he refused to grant me those signed divorce papers." I answered within myself, my smile widening. 'I know right? The Alpha I knew would have her executed on the spot for showing him the slightest bit of disrespect' another whisper flew past. 'Beats me...' If they're gossiping this much right in front of their supposed scary Alpha, what would they do if they found out I was going to his office to relax my nerves like the Queen I was? It took me three minutes altogether to get to Damian's office and make myself feel completely at home, without his permission. Something I could never dare to do even when our marria

  • Married to Him, Saved by his Brother   036.

    Amelia's POV I gulped in several breaths of fresh air the moment I stepped out of the board room. It was the least I could do after walking out of that toxic environment, surrounded by toxic air.I wasn't lying about wanting to use the restroom, but I wasn't going to return to that room for any reason, either.If anyone has a problem about it, let them face me. Squarely. And I'll give them a piece of my mind.After walking for a few minutes, while in deep thoughts, I finally paid attention to where I was headed.But then I realized, I didn't know much about this part of the company's building. I've never been to the board room before now, and I didn't pay any attention while we were being escorted to that room about forty minutes ago.It was easy to miss your way around the building but you couldn't possibly get lost, so I didn't panic.I just kept walking and making turns where necessary, but the more I walked the more silent the pathway became.Like I just walked into an abandoned

    Amelia's POV The once noisy board room went dead silent the moment Damian stepped in, together with Gabriela and I.But in the rightful order.Damian first. I, after him. Then Gabriela if she wasn't too angry to come in after I pulled her back by the hair, successfully detangling her shameless forelimbs from Damian’s arms to make sure I walked in before she did.I was afterall, still the rightful Luna as far as I'm concerned.They all stood to pay their respects to Damian and to my utter surprise, as well as Damian’s, half the board members recognized me as their Alpha's lawfully wedded woman and also went ahead to pay their respects… alongside those that had no idea before now.This is the way I envisioned my day, but who am I to say I didn't like the way things backfired on Damian and his beloved?Now, I'd love to see her play any tricks to cling onto the Alpha in front of his Luna and the entire board members.“I’d rather we cut to the chase now, we can't spend all the time we h
