KatherineDefinitely I did think that after my suicide attempt that Conrad would change for the better. But that wasn't the case at all. It had been five days now since Andrea saved me from myself. And ever since then Conrad hadn't said a word to me. Neither had he ever come to visit me to check on how I was doing.I could vaguely recall asking him to leave my side. But I couldn't tell if that had been a dream, or if it truly happened. I was still under the effects of the Lycan's breath, when whatever had happened, happened. I wasn't in my right state of mind. Ricardo has been telling me he visits while I sleep, but I wasn't buying anything he said. He was the same man who had set up a date between Conrad and I. It wouldn't be a surprise if he was saying all those things just to keep me from hating Conrad anymore than I already did.Even if Ricardo's words were true, it didn't matter anymore. If Conrad wanted to show that he cares, then he should come say it to my face. Him visiting
Katherine"A meeting at Shadow Corporation?" I asked Aiden who had just informed me of a new meeting update. Shadow corporation was Conrad's company. I had no idea what the meeting was for. But I guess it would be disclosed later."Yes, all shareholders of the company have been called for a meeting. You and I will go as representatives of the company" Aiden informed."When is this meeting? What day and time?" "Tomorrow, right at twelve noon!" Aiden relayed. "Okay, thanks for the update" It has been a week now since my last confrontation with Conrad. And so far, everything was going relatively well. I've been steering away from the troubles of his family as much as I could. And it had really saved my mental health a lot.I still hadn't heard any updates concerning Andrea. I was beginning to think that my investigation team was incompetent, but I decided not to conclude so suddenly. Even I could tell that Andrea wasn't going to be so easy to crack. His life was mysterious, and somethi
Katherine."Stop it Conrad!" I yelled before pulling away from his hold. Almost immediately, the ladies voice returned to the speaker with another announcement."We're sorry for any difficulties caused. The power will be back on in ten seconds!" Ten more seconds with Conrad? The universe must truly despise me. It was unexpected, but the last ten seconds were actually spent in silence. It was only the tension in the atmosphere that was unbearable for me. The elevator door opened up slowly, and I raced out the moment it was wide enough for me to leave.Conrad seemed to have another place to be. He didn't leave with me. Not that it mattered to me anyways. It was best he went elsewhere. I wanted to be as far away from him as possible.I headed straight to the spa, and had one of the most relaxing hour of my life. The ladies there were really nice, and for a while I had actually forgotten that I was living a miserable life.I left ten minutes before the end of the break, and headed strai
ConradI had never really believed that distance made the heart want! It was not a concept I was familiar with. However, these past few weeks had made me realize just how true those words were. I had tried relentlessly to get Katherine out of my thoughts, but nothing was working.It was impossible to forget her, her touch and everything about her.I stood from the seat and dismissed myself from the dining table. I was done with breakfast, there was no need wasting time sitting there. Katherine had visitors, so she would probably be occupied. I had intended to meet up with her. But I didn't want to intrude on her guests.I had barely taken a step forward when my eyes caught the figure of Katherine from the back. She was leaving the house, but where to?My instincts kicked in, and I trailed after her in secrecy."She was going for a run" I whispered to myself. Perhaps I should do the same too. It had been long since I wolfed out. I wasn't going to trail her, I would just do the same to e
ConradPerhaps my troubles were coming to an end, or they were just beginning. I couldn't tell. Something ominous was growing within me, my intuitions were screaming. But I decided to turn towards the little light that was still visible. After I had learnt about Clara's pregnancy, and the truth, I was a little confident that my problems will reduce. So why did I feel this way?I pushed away the bad thoughts, and focused on what was important. Katherine. I had absolutely no idea on what to get her. I wasn't exactly the kind who went shopping with women. I had no idea what to buy, so I decided on buying anything I felt would sit right with her. Everything looked good on Katherine, I was just buying those I figured would suit her even better.It was a brief shopping, and it ended within minutes. The store I visited wasn't too far from the house, so it didn't take much time for me to return home either.It seemed my intuitions had been right. Drama had definitely been waiting for me. Li
ConradRicardo was the first to arrive, and soon after, Frank was there too. We didn't waste much time at home. Once Frank arrived, the three of us drove towards the bar. Katherine had permitted Ricardo to leave with us beforehand.It was a good thing the drama with Lina and Clara had subsided before they arrived. I was in no mood for explanations. I would inform Frank later today, and it won't be long before Ricardo finds out. He was living in the same house too.Anytime they asked me what the celebration was for, I would always reply, "just a boys night out" I could guess Frank already got a hint of the deal. But Ricardo proceeded to enjoy himself. I wished I had the same peace of mind as he did.By the time we were done, it was already approaching midnight. Frank drove home by himself, while Ricardo and I drove back to the house. He was going to spend the night here.Everywhere was quiet when we arrived, unlike before. For once, the environment felt peaceful, and I was happy with i
KatherineI tried to keep my thoughts from wandering way too much, but it wasn't working. As long as Conrad was troubled, I couldn't bring myself not to worry. Conrad was definitely trying to hide his worry, but it was more obvious than he realised..He woke up today, and the first thing he did was to scream Clara's name. It wasn't something that happened often. The only time Conrad shouts the way he did, was when he was mad. It was obvious Clara had done something to him. And I could feel it wasn't something to be taken lightly.Clara's influence and power shouldn't be undermined. She was the daughter of a notoriously wealthy Alpha. She could get what she wanted just by snapping her fingers. She could definitely cause Conrad harm if she decides to do so.I understood that facing such a public embarrassment could cause one severe mental damage. But I know that wasn't the case with Clara. She couldn't care less about what had happened yesterday. She was a spiteful witch who will go any
KatherineLove is a paradox. A simple yet complicated feeling that we have no control over. It was an inescapable reality, and I have found myself trapped in a never ending cycle of this feeling.My hands stroked through Conrad's hair as he laid innocently on my thighs. His hair was soft and silky. He might have forgotten his morals for a moment, but it was clear he hadn't forgotten his hair routines.I loved us this way. This peace and quiet was addictive, and I never wanted to depart from its soothing embrace. Clara was causing trouble in Conrad's life. But there was no denying that her absence had brought back a sense of serenity and peace to the atmosphere. It was her toxicity that always clouded the atmosphere, and the environment unfit for happiness."Can I feel him?" Conrad's words were soft, but they were heavy to my hearing. I was lost of words to reply, and his next question had the air knocked out of my lungs."Can I feel our son?" I almost jerked up in surprise, but I re
