Giselle.
“You’re distressed.”His words caught me off guard.“I…I don’t…”“You are. I can sense your distress, you know.”I nervously laughed, “Thanks.”Marcus looked at me, confused, “For what?”“You saved me. Without you, I couldn’t make it out alive.” I sincerely said.Maybe there were problems between us, but he had come.For now, that was more than enough.“Oh, that, don’t worry about that.” Marcus paused for a second, then continued, “I have something that I wanted to tell you.”I felt a tug in my heart when I heard his saying.What did he want to tell me?Suddenly, I felt so nervous.“What…What do you want to tell me?”Did he want us to part way?Did he want to end things between us? Came to think of it, there was nothing between to end at all.“The Moon Goddess has established the bone between you and Giselle, not Tina! And now you are telling us that you want to cut the knot and tide another one with Tina? Do you hear yourself? This is such a humiliation!”Edsel was an alpha leader, too. This whole ordeal that Marcus was about to do might ruin his reputation. Edsel could not let this happen!Let alone Tina was with Lukas Perez then.Hence, Tina would not want to be with Marcus.“Giselle has just woken up, and she has already dealt with your bullshit like this! You do not deserve to be the head alpha!”Edsel hissed, pointing to the door, grunting demand, “You two should leave before I lost control over myself!”“Mr.Brown…”“Enough! Let’s go!”Marcus still wanted to say something. However, Lady Bailey seemed like she also had enough of his nonsense; she pulled him out.When there were Edsel, Giselle, and he
“Slap!”“What are you doing?”“Dad!”Brenna Brown and Tina Brown exclaimed at the same time.Brenna rushed to Tina’s side, sheltering her daughter from Edsel.“Have you lost your mind? What did my Tina do?” Brenna gritted. She did not know what was wrong with this man. He had just come home from the hospital and already released his anger on them! What had happened there?“You have to ask? Your precious daughter had pressed me to her mess! Her life is a whole mess that I try not to stick to it. But she has to drag me in as well!”Edsel completely lost his temper. Just by the thought of what Marcus had said, he could not help but feel anger boiling up inside of him.“First Marcus, then Raiz! And now? Who the hell is Lukas? You can’t stick to just one man?” Edsel screamed out loud, ever felt so frustrated, “My plan got all messed up because
“There’s someone outside?”Lady Bailey widened her eyes. She was horrified!No one could hear the conversation with Marcus!“Can we see the surveillance camera? Maybe we could catch that guy's face.”“No use. This area had no cameras.” Marcus wiped his face with his hands, heaving out a heavy breath.Big trouble!“You had better pray that person did not hear anything!”Lady Bailey stormed out of Fynn’s office, irritated.Meanwhile, at the parking lot of the hospital, the anonymous man got to his car, carefully looking around, making sure that there was no one after him.Unfortunately, the anonymous man had just got in his car and thought that he was safe when Nabeel caught up with him.“Calling someone?”Nabeel smirked. He looked at the anonymous man right in the eyes. Nabeel’s eyes flared blue. He emitted a dangerous pressure. Th
“That’s why you met Tina?”Giselle smiled, taking another sip of her hot milk since she could not take any caffeine just yet.Marcus nodded, “Unbelievable, right?”“No.” Giselle shook her head.“No? Who would have met their destined in a bar after all?” Marcus laughed, shaking his head, leaning back on the backrest of the bench.Giselle pursed her lips. She wanted to say something, but she chose to let it go.With Tina’s personality, if the girl had ever met Marcus somewhere else, other than the bars, that should be weird.But, on the other hand, the way Marcus implied the word “destined” had hurt Giselle. Nonetheless, she shook the disturbing thought away.Marcus and she, they could never be.A moment of awkward silence passed through, Marcus hemmed, he began, “I might have said it before, but I will say it one more. I’m sorry, Giselle,
Fynn pushed up his glass while skimming through Giselle’s indicators report.All was well Giselle was ready to be discharged.He glanced at the petite omega fidgeting in her seat, nervously biting her lips.Fynn said nothing, returning his attention to the report as his mind wandered to the night of two days ago.He had seen Marcus at the hospital’s small garden with Giselle. Honestly, Fynn thought the two would be a perfect couple. Better than Marcus with Tina.Fynn could not help but think of the way Marcus held on tight to Giselle the day they showed up at the special department. The young alpha leader seemed devastated. His eyes were bright red even though there were no enemies in sight. Fynn could swear he could hear the alpha snarling, too. It was like Marcus trying to warn everyone who had tried to approach him and his mate to stay put.Long story short, Fynn almost had to use an anesthetic dose on Marcus just to get Gisel
"Hey Giselle, Good morning!" Giselle was startled at Marcus’s sudden and raspy greeting but nodded her head, nonetheless. She turned her head to his direction, a genuine smile flustered in her pretty face, "Hey Marcus, morning to you, too. Do you want some coffee? Or tea?" Marcus stretched his arms while walking toward Giselle. He was wearing his comfy sports wears. “Look like he did not have to go to the meeting with the council today.” Giselle thought for herself while quickly capping her coffee bottle up. It was almost nine. She was late. Marcus made his way to her. His hands hovered up to the brownish wooden cabinet above her head: "I'll have black tea for today." He randomly picked one of those mugs she kept in there, filled it with hot water, and dipped two black tea bags into it. “Why are you up so early?” He asked as he watched her put her coffee into a carry bag. “I have to go to the din
Marcus sighed. His shoulders dropped.More than two weeks had passed since the rogue and two of his teammates trespassed the Bailey’s pack territory. Although they caused no threats to the Bailey’s pack, their actions must have served a defined goal.Marcus did not believe that they aimed for Giselle just to provoke the fight between the Brownson and the Bailey's. There might be more. Like, they hid their scents for a reason. The rogue they had captured got no scent gland, and it made Marcus think the rogue’s teammates might have removed their scent gland, too.They even got that far. There must have been something more serious than just provoking a fight.“Is there any chance the one behind this is Raiz?” Ben said, “Your uncle is wicked.”“Could have been. If Marcus got dismissed from the head alpha position, Raiz would be benefited.” Tim agreed.“But he seemed to lay low these day
Weekend soon arrived.Their friends gathered at their apartment as agreed. Giselle was a little bit inconvenient with her cast on so they decided to celebrate at Marcus’s apartment instead.They even showed up early to help prepare.At the time, there were Fiona, Sarah, and Giselle in the kitchen. Marcus and his friends were off to the grocery store to buy some more. Anne excused herself since she had caught the flu.Giselle and her friends were talking about her wedding. Her friends seemed a little bit sad since they could not attend their friend’s wedding ceremony. They had promised to be each other bridesmaids. Unintentionally, Giselle broke the promise.It was not like she had a choice. She did not want to do this wedding, either. Not to mention, this wedding had been held in such a hush way. What could you expect from a two-week preparation of a wedding? She could not think of her guesses list in a proper way.Giselle thought about it a
