I fix my gaze in him through my masks, trying hard to suppress the tension that's rising across my chest. Oh! How I wish he wouldn't know I'm the one. Mates have this special connection they feel with each other, I tried my best to suppress that emotional bond in my heart to prevent Aiden from knowing. "I feel this deep connection with you, I feel you're worth more than my mate." I force out a gasp as he says this. I thought I heard that he doesn't have a mate? I smirk right inside me. Look how he's distracting himself right before me here. I shake my head in fury. Aiden's eyes changes from tense to weak and apologetic, he just remembered what he told me earlier, about not having a mate. "So you have a mate? You told me you don't." "I…I never meant it but what's the issue if I pay you what I intended paying to you." "It's not all about the money but the interest." I force my voice into a teary one. "You love me right, I like you, I love you, I want to be with you but it seems yo
Aiden POV Anger fumes in my chest to have been humiliated that way, I'm going straight home. I just can't believe a woman slapped a fierce and feared mafia like me, if it was a rival, it would have been a different thing. I would take it as a challenge but a woman slapping me is quite disgraceful. I don't know if I'll ever get this off my mind. I get my phone off from my trousers' pocket, I have to call the commercial helicopter here. I dial the line of the unit in charge of commercial transport, the call goes through. "Hello." "Hello, this is the commercial helicopter unit. Please, how may we be of help?" A gentle, professional voice replies on the other side. "I'm Alpha Aiden, I need to return to my island estate." "We are at your services Alpha, tell us your location and we will be right there to pick you up." "I'm out here, in front of the hotel." "Okay!" The call ends. I wait where I am, stamping my foot in fury. My eyes blinking, she will surely get what she wan
Aiden POVI hurriedly take my phone from my pocket, dial Jack's number, click on it and place a call. His phone rings from the other end. I stamp my feet as I wait for him to pick it up and say something. I throw frightening gazes on my mom, she's very worried and quite not satisfied. Finally, Jack accepts the call and his voice comes up. "Hello sir, good morning." He's more accustomed to calling me sir than Alpha, perhaps because he's working for me and I feel our relationship should be more professional than based on traditional respect from being an Alpha. "Yes, good morning." I snap. I'm not so concerned about the greeting but the whereabouts of these two girls. "Where are you?" I start by asking, my voice very stern and authoritative. I hear him begin to stammer. "I…I..went out with…" The voice stops and it seems like he can no longer say something again. My heart beat so much heavily, my heartbeat accelerating at a rocket speed, tension is imminent and my whole being is total
I rise up from the ground hurriedly, why am I wasting my time? I asked my men to put the girl to death not knowing she was my very wife. I'm done for, I get my phone off my pocket, dial into it with great fury. I intend to call the head of the gang to stop what they were about doing right now. I just felt it was an honor to ask him to punish my enemy, I knew him for the first time through the introduction of one of the best of my men, and he became a leader for one day. He introduced Rex as a mafia gangster and don in South America, Brazil to be specific. Rex came on a hunting expedition, to assassinate one of his rivals and along the way we crossed paths. He's fierce and handsome, making me attracted to him. He's my most kind, especially as he's brave. I hate cowards. Tears flow from my eyes like a big river as he refuses to pick my call. I dial the numbers of three gang members of mine who went with him, but none of them is picking up. Are they drunk, done or executing their assignme
Chelsey POV I don't know how I got to be here, the environment is quite strange, I've just awoken in the exterior of a villa, bright and beautiful, painted in white with flowers planted at strategic positions, it looks so beautiful. I take my thought back to Aiden, from here I recall the scene last night at Erille's Metropolitan Hotel, I was kidnapped after I got into a conflict with Aiden who didn't know who he was dealing with. I wonder what time of the day it is. I spring up from the soft foamy coach I was lying on. I glance on my body, a gasp escapes my mouth, I remember that I was nude last night, I remember Emily standing out of the hotel to wait for me and how we had planned to go back together before morning so we wouldn't be discovered. I sigh. Life is so unpredictable. I attempt to stand up, a handsome man walks towards me, I think he must have approached me from the corner of the building because I didn't see him when I first opened my eyes. "Hi, are you awake?" His t
I just don't know how I feel right, this guy is making me go crazy but I'm not supposed to feel this for him, I've found a mate meaning I need to stick to him but what will I do when this one sitting before me has electricity running through my spines, I begin to see the horizons, butterflies in my stomach, sensations I never experienced with Aiden. It's kind of controversial but who would want to stay with a mate whose evil deeds and lust had crowded his mentality and judgment that he can't recognize his mate is standing before him, and sent her to her premature death. Why shouldn't I go with someone that rescued me? I hug my knees thinking about all these, another opposing thought sets into my mind. No matter how things go well between us, I'm sure one day Aiden might find out, my instincts tells me he has already found out that the girl he ordered to be killed wasn't killed, that girl was his mate and someone else has taken her for himself but he doesn't knows where, the exact loc
He drops me on the soft king size bed, I blush as he stares at me with eyes full of interest. I didn't know that a mafia could be so caring. He jumps on the bed, sits beside me brushing my legs up to my hips, sparks arise in my entire body. "I think you love me…" he asks kind of nervously. I blush, refusing to respond, I don't want to talk about that now. "Don't you think it's too soon?" I retort, with a kidding style, keeping him in suspense. "Hmmm," his lips part slightly into what I'll call a sigh and a blush. "We'll go out now." "Now?" "Yeah," he replies with firmness. "But I don't have a suitable dress….How will I…." "Don't worry about that," he snaps before I could finish my statement. "I'll get some suitable dresses for you." "Thanks." "For the meantime, let's…" I wonder what he's meaning until he fell on top of my body. He whirls up and lies beside me, placing his hand on my cheeks, he begins to caress it, our eyes filled with interest locked on each other then o
It's 7:14 PM in the evening and we're ready for the mission. Rex took me to his weapon room filled with different types of weapons just like Aiden has. He takes off a gun and throws it at me. "Hope you can handle this?" "Yes," I nod. "Have you forgotten my position in my pack? As a gamma, I attend the Defence Academy where we are trained to handle all types of weapons." "Then why were you afraid of partaking in this operation?" "Because I've never been involved in a gangster life, I'm always at war….." "What's the difference between a warrior and a gangster?" He interjects, cutting my words short. I smile, not knowing the reply to give to him. Obviously, there's no major standout difference, both have similar purposes except that they occur in different dimensions. A mafia fights for supremacy, revenge while a warrior as I am fight for the same but kind of for a collective aim which is for the benefit of the pack. It's more selfless than mafia fights.
