Se connecterJhelani's POVDamon asked, standing at the door of my room and I didn't know when I leapt on him and threw my hands around his neck happily, jumping on my toes. “i got the fucking job!" I screamed, unable to hide my excitement. A wide smile curled on Damon's lips as he mouthed the word congrats to me. “You have the job and you have to resume work tomorrow, I believe.” She informed me.I immediately nodded like she could see me doing it. “Yes. I'm available to start first thing tomorrow. Gosh! You don't know how excited I am to start working and that also, with you.”“Well then, I looked forward to working with you, darling. Make sure to come early though,” she said in a teasing voice, laughing and then hung up after.I let out a squeal and jumped into Damon’s arms again. He hugged me back, wrapping his hands tightly around my waist. “I got the job! I got the job.” I sang repeatedly. I tried pulling away, but he only held tightly to me and no matter how hard I tried to pull away, h
Jhelani's POV: We arrived at an unfamiliar place. My heart was beating damn fast as I looked around, trying to figure out why he brought me here in the first place. I knew I could trust Damien and knew that he'd never try anything of that sort, but I couldn't stop myself from wondering why we were here. He turned to look at me, his rare signature smile formed on his lips and I felt a thrill down my spine, all other thoughts leaving my head. He stretched forth his hands and made a nudge sign with his head. “Are you coming or what?” I nodded slowly and made my way down his motorcycle, getting off it. I went to meet him, where he stood on a cliff, staring at the water below.“Is this the part where you push me and hide my body in a place no one could find?” I teased, a gentle smile on my lips. He looked at me with a blank expression on his face and started making slow, predatory steps towards me. My heart began picking up again, racing fast in my chest as I took a few conscious ste
Jhelani's POV: “Aah!” I screamed, clutching my chest.It was so late at night and the things that closed my head was the event that took place last night. I still was unable to get myself to stop thinking about that.I checked my bed side clock, trying to figure out who was paying me a boost by this time of the day. It was already eleven pm and the boys showed up today.So much for caring about me.I threw the blanket off me and went to the kitchen, making sure to grab a fry pan as a way to protect myself. Probably not the best thing to use against an unknown entity, but this was all I got at the moment.I went to the door, letting the door ring again. I braced myself up, closing my eyes to prepare myself for whatever I'm going to see. Also secretly praying that it turned out to be nothing of that sort.“You can do this, Jhelani,” I assured myself. I opened the door, ready to hit the ret on whoever it was until his louder caught me on guard. “What the fuck are you doing here?”I slo
Damon's POV:I ran my hands through my hair, getting frustrated. This was the third meeting in the space of one week. Jace and Kian refused to show up, leaving me to face all the questions. They kept talking about the prophecy, while I tried to concentrate, but my mind was somewhere else. I still wasn't able to get Jace's words out of my head.“What do you think, Damon?” Alpha Nico's words snapped me out of my thoughts.I was brought back to reality and realised that everyone's eyes were now on me and they were waiting for my response. I had been so lost in thoughts, that I couldn't even focus.I cleared my throat, adjusting my position on the chair. “I think we need to be careful about this. After all, the girl hasn't been seen in this town for so many years now. So what if we're just making assumptions?”Another Alpha—Alpha Marcus— Gasped. “What are you trying to say? What the hell are you insinuating at, Damon? Are you trying to say the prophecy is wrong?”I shook my head. “I didn
Jhelani's POV: I sighed and shut my laptop, feeling conflicted. I was still bummed about the job I lost and it didn't make it better that I was trying to apply for jobs, but I haven't found any job with a single opening and it was infuriating. If only I hadn't wasted my time there, but it wasn't entirely on me that I only got naturally curious and wanted to know the truth. I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that Damon purchased a building.The brothers definitely have more stuffs they're hiding, and I wasn't going to stop until I've gotten all of it. I've lost my job anyways and if there's something I can use to pass time instead of job hunting, it's this.A knock on the door disrupted my thoughts. I groaned inwardly and went to answer the door, but wasn't too surprised when I saw that it was just Jace and Kian.They've been doing this for the past two days now. I'm still pissed at them, but they've been trying to see me with whatever excuse they could find and they alway
Jhelani's POV: "Fine, just do it." I mumbled, rolling my eyes with a sigh. I needed to get to work as soon as possible, I was running late. Hopefully, they wouldn't be pissed at me for coming too late. Just when Jace wanted to take a hold of my hand again, my phone buzzed with a notification in my tote bag."A second please." I instantly took out my phone and checked what it was because I barely got notifications so it must be an important stuff. And I've blocked every notifying sounds whenever I got a text from my highschool friends. Their conversations in the group chat were always useless to me anyway except it's Lisa talking. "What?" I frowned. Shocked."What's wrong?" They all appeared before me. "I-I..." My lips quivered, hand trembling with my phone in my hand. Too stund to even speak properly. "What'd you get that got you looking this way?" Damon asked. They were trying to get a look at my phone. "I lost the job, guys. Oh my goodness." I felt frustration running throug
