LIX: I Will Never Let You GoKnox's POVI told her I didn't care, yet I found myself eliminating Jake from our group the next day. I convinced myself that it was all a game and I just got so into it that I confused it for something else, yet I found myself affected whenever she ignored me like I didn't exist. I went to a business meeting in London, and she was everywhere. It was like my eyes were playing tricks on me and I could see her everywhere. Everything reminds me of her. Cheesecake, books, dancing, even the freaking sky reminds me of her. I've been drinking and smoking more than usual to forget about these damn feelings and emotions. When I agreed to the dare, I was determined to win and did everything to make her fall in love with me—not knowing that I might have felt unwanted feelings as well. At that time, I just thought it'd be fun. It'd be fun to play with her heart and break it along with her damn ego. It's cruel but it would make us even after she rejected me without e
LVIII: Two Can Play Your GameAlyssa's POVEverything went back to the way it was before I got played by Knox, but it's not the same. One, because my feelings changed. No matter how angry I am, and no matter how much I hate him, I can't deny the fact that I still fell for him. Before, whenever we saw each other, he would mock me and do anything to make my life miserable, but now, we just pass by each other. We no longer eat together because I will eat outside right after I wake up. This time, however, Knox didn't take away the maid doing my chores and the driver. As if I'd let him do that. Instead of relying on the maid and the driver, I ask them not to help me, that I will do things on my own. After a week, things went back to normal, well, as normal as they can be. Knox gave everything back to my family, including the business and the house. Being with him, living with him, sleeping next to him is nothing but pure torture. I spent the next few days working, and I would only come
LVII: The Devil is BackAlyssa's POVI was silently crying at the back of the taxi on my way back to the pack house. I resisted the urge to cry, but they just fell by themselves, and I couldn't stop no matter how many times I wiped them away.I am crying because I remember all the bittersweet moments Knox and I had. My heart is breaking so much because of how he treated me so nicely, how he cared and worried about me, but they all turned out to be fake. All the things he did are part of his plan to make me fall for him and break my heart, just so he could reject me too. What makes me really angry is the fact that I fell for his act. He did so many things I thought were real. He was there when I had no one, he stayed to listen to me. He saved me a lot of time. He showed me he cared. Oh, what a great actor he was. And all for what? To avenge his broken ego? Not even an hour later and I was back at the pack house. I was relieved that the ladies were not around because if they were, I
LVI: First Cut is the DeepestAlyssa's POV"Is this okay, or is it too plain?" I asked Samantha and the other ladies who accompanied me to choose what I'd wear for tonight's dinner. Knox invited me for dinner with his friends, saying they wanted to meet me. I am making an effort to look my best because they are not just ordinary people. They are also Knox's business partners. "I think it doesn't suit your skin color, Luna. You shine more on earth tones." Sara commented and I looked down on what seemed like the hundredth dress I tried. I was anxious about the dinner, but I was thankful that these ladies volunteered to help me. Since the party, we've exchanged numbers and I also became a member of their group chat. For once, I actually felt included."Dear, you don't have to be so nervous. I'm pretty sure the Alpha will still like you whatever you wear, plus, with that beauty, you can wear a trash bag and people wouldn't even notice." Daisy assured me while stroking my hair. "But I
LV: Knot MeAlyssa's POV"Please, please, please!" I begged, not knowing exactly what I was begging for, my back arching off the ground. I could feel Knox's heated gaze scanning my body, watching my body writhed with the need to have him inside me so badly. I let out a shaky gasp when his fangs scraped my skin, and my head spun at the strong scent hitting my nostrils. "Are you ready to have my pups, mate?" Knox's voice was deeper than usual, and I could tell his wolf was with him. My own wolf scratched at me, as if asking me to release her so she could communicate with her mate. I whimpered when his large and very much erect cōck gyrated against my skin. I could feel it leaving a trail of his precūm. Knox moved lower until he was between my legs and he inhaled sharply before letting out an animalistic growl. "You're so ready, so needy for me." He teased me and he grinned, showing off his fangs. In just a matter of seconds, he ripped my clothes off and his, leaving us both naked
LIV: RutAlyssa's POVI was disappointed and hurt when Knox left in a rush in the middle of my performance. Still, I didn't let it affect me and continued to deliver a great performance. I was satisfied and happy when I saw how mesmerized and amazed everyone was, and when my performance ended, everyone clapped their hands. Everyone but my father who still had that look on his face when I begged him to let me dance. But you know what? I don't care about it anymore. Knox is right. He can no longer control me and I can dance to my heart's content. When my performance ended, I went back to the dressing room to change, and I was surprised to see Dad and Kelly the moment I stepped out of the changing room. "You did great out there, Aly." Kelly praised me, softly caressing her noticeable baby bump. I smiled a little. "Thank you.""Cut the act, we are not here for that. I no longer care whether you shake your ass or show everyone your body." Dad sneered angrily. "Do you even know what yo
