“Hi, Layla” Asher smiled back. They'd known each other since high school too. She's been crushing on him since then but, she's nothing compared to the girls that were vying around him.

He gave her a side hug which he almost rejected, he instantly remembered Annatoria. Layla was being clingy, Dave saw it too.

No pack leader really liked her. They only looked like they did like her but……deep down, many said a lot of nasty things about her.

He stylishly pulled away from her hug but as he was about to make a move out of the hall, his name was called on the stage.

He was to give his speech to the seated guests and the new members.

Even though he wanted to check on Annatoria, he had no option than to give his speech l on the stage and act as a responsible Alpha who wouldn't keep everyone waiting. After that, he could go back to the house.

As he walked towards the stage, cheerings, clapping, and gasps escaped the lips of the guest.

  • No Second Chance, Dear X   71. Asher Is back

    Chapter 71: Asher Is Back!Annatoria sat in the half couch, her eyes trailing the edges of the window opposite her as the reflection of the sun kissed her skin. She'd grown more beautiful, confident, stronger and powerful. The past two years had been busy years for her and she had only moved from one conference or business meeting to another. It was either a meeting with a top dermatologist or researcher or a meeting with the international shifters. Both in the human world and in the Shifters’ world, she'd grown bigger. She set up her brand which was travelling around the world. She opened up a cosmetics’ brand and the rate at which the business was growing was unexpected. Over 13 popular cosmetics brands in 6 different counties including top dermatologists had also partnered with her. She was now a full time business woman and she had very little time to manage her pack. She only went there on urgent days and even at that, the pack was still functioning well. Since she fuck

  • No Second Chance, Dear X   70. The Right Time.

    Chapter 70: The Right TimeTwo Years LaterNyx reclined quietly on a worn-out couch, her appearance noticeably frail and disheveled as she nursed with care, the small child nestled in her arms.Her complexion, once radiant and as flawless as fresh cream, had now lost its luster. The glow that used to define her beauty was gradually fading, and she fully understood why.It was the price she paid for motherhood.Every woman who became a mother had to give up something meaningful—whether it was sleep, time, or in Nyx’s case, her beauty. That was what her new role had taken.“Amaya has been feeding well lately, hasn't she?” Mother Veer inquired gently, extending her hands to carry the small pup from Nyx’s sweaty arms.Nyx passed her child to the older woman with a soft, reassuring smile and a subtle nod in agreement.The little girl had grown noticeably—her cheeks were full, her limbs plump, and she bore an unmistakable resemblance to her father, whose identity remained a secret known on

  • No Second Chance, Dear X   69. The Kiss

    Chapter 69:The Kiss “Hey Radolf, I never imagined myself stooping this low to reply to your texts. You know what? You only have the present, not the future. I assure you that whatever your confidence developed from, I, Annatoria Hawkins, will bring it down. I'll make sure you're nothing before everyone, just as you are before me. I'm happy here, away from you and your malicious lifestyle. I've gotten the happiness you could never give, the care you never showed me, and guess what?? I'm better off than you. I'm bigger, stronger, and greater. Oh no! Don't cry, save the tears for later. Say hi to my son. Tell him mama loves him. Ah! Why do I keep forgetting to tell you that the Annatoria you knew is dead….long gone, loser!” She sighed after typing her reply, as she massaged her knuckles. “Let me see your reply," Asher smiled, trying to peek at what she'd typed. Everywhere was silent for a moment, and when she was done, she pressed the “Send" button and exhaled sharply, l

  • No Second Chance, Dear X   68. Radolf's Offer.

    Asher had always wanted to tell her how he felt but, he kept waiting for the right timing and now, he felt it was the right time to let her know how he felt towards her. “Are you ready, Kian?" Asher asked his wolf, just as he and Annatoria pulled apart. They'd hugged for minutes. “I….L”He began but there was no need to keep talking when her phone rang. "What!’ She exclaimed happily after minutes of hearing the caller speak. It was from her hospital. “Moon is better now, Asher” She smiled, heading towards the outside of the house. "I'll take you in mine," Asher said with a playful bow. “You never want to be serious, do you?"She scoffed lightly. "Your palm,” She said, observing the bandage wrapped around his hand but, he hid his him and behind him."What happened to you?” " It's nothing, I'm fine” He smiled almost normally. "No. What happened?’ “I mishandled my Father's sword. It was a mistake" He lied to her. Annatoria took it, with a scoff. “How could you be so careless?”

  • No Second Chance, Dear X   67. The Future Is Coming

    Chapter 67: The Future Is Coming. “I order you to be mute!” He commanded furiously. His voice had already changed and he was sounding like the Beta he truly was. Katherine's eyes shone in shock as she heard his thunderous voice for the very first time. She was shocked that she shrunk in fear, forgetting she ever liked him. "Leave and never come back to fool yourself before me” He said in the same tone. It was casual yet, authority-filled. ***Manga stood before his mirror, examining every single feature of his face. His well-carved jaw and the terrible scar left on his face by his wicked Uncle who he once loved—the one who had left him holding onto a thin line of life. Things were no longer working the way he planned. He once used to be the most feared and powerful Manga but now, no one even remembered his name. He'd become as useless as a rag no one regarded. He couldn't go out in broad daylight just to avoid being attacked. As a wolf, he was powerless and even as a human,

  • No Second Chance, Dear X   66. Heartbreaking Sarcasm... "I Love You"

    Chapter 66: I Love You. Finally! It's been 2 weeks since the whole commotion about Mario's death happened. Something wasn't clear to Radolf. How did they get his body?! He was killed outside the city but, how did his body reach his family at Russia? It was a question he couldn't ask Madam Elise. This matter gave Radolf many sleepless nights as he tried to believe his son's revelation but,“What if she really killed him? How could they have met?" He murmured as he stared into nothingness. His eyes gazed into the void as his fingers tapped the table rhythmically and then, he exhaled sharply as he tried to sit upright. "Alpha,”Nicholas said as soon as she walked into the room. Apparently, she'd taken over Candace's position and she was free to go into his room at anytime. She felt like the new boss lady of the house and hearing the other maids gossip about her, only made her happier. “Oh!" Radolf cleared his throat, his gaze not leaving the ground as she walked in.
