LOGIN♡☆CANDACE♡☆"Alpha Luca's in the shower, I'll deliver your message." Vivianne was the very last face I'd expected to see on Luca's FaceTime when I called him that night. Four times he didn't answer, only for his wife... ex-wife...whatever to answer. Thank goodness I'd overcome the urge to call him in bed wearing just the lingerie he'd bought me. "For tomorrow's celebration," I looked away from the laptop Rex had given me to bring home to do some work and respond to all the emails which, by the way, was a lot of work, "Please let Alpha Luca know that the Eastern packs commanders have just arrived at Duskmoon." She ended the call even before confirming she'd gotten my message right. How rude. I put my phone away and took a sip of the cinnamon tea I'd made myself. They were together. My chest tightened. He was back home. In the shower getting ready to sleep with her. Or was it a post-sex shower? Did he not answer my calls a while ago because he was fucking her?Then I snapped my
♠︎♣︎VIVIANNE♠︎♣︎"Candace has always been a very beautiful and humble girl. She'll make a very sweet bride." I dabbed my mouth with the napkin at dinner, smiling impressively at Damien who looked a little conflicted with choosing between the two Baldwin sisters. Luca didn't say much at the table, he'd barely touched the salmon with baked potatoes on his plate. He looked lost in thought. He looked just as handsome and as stressed as I'd known him all my life to be. The goddess was indeed answering my prayers. Although Luca hadn't moved back in, or given me any reason to believe our intimacy could be restored, soon, at least, he'd accepted to have dinner as a family. That was a good sign. "Candace and I could exchange vows on the same full moon as you and..." Damien trailed off, to call Luca dad seemed very heavy on his tongue, "You get." This rivalry was something I could fix. If only they let me. One thing at a time."Excuse me. I'll take an urgent call in my office." Luca reare
♡☆CANDACE♡☆"In my office. Now!" Baldwin roared at me during lunch. So much for finally finding my peace. I sighed and put away the neatly packaged chicken sandwiches I'd brought for lunch. Suddenly, I lost my appetite. Strange why he wanted me in his office, he never acted like we were related. Somewhere inside me, I already knew what this was about. Dad was pacing his vast office when I stepped in, his assistant sat with her attention focused on the laptop before her. "You made me wait." The disapproval on his face made it seem like he'd waited all day. "You didn't expect me to skip lunch because you want us to talk out of the blue." The truth was that I didn't even get to eat my lunch, I just stalled in the staff lunch area spying on Alpha Luca and Vivianne as they had lunch in the VIP section. Pathetic. Yeah I know. But I wanted to chase Luca until the second I made up my mind not to, the second I got over him then I could give myself a good reason why I shouldn't look back
♡☆ALPHA LUCA♡☆"You have no idea how much it means to me that you're finally willing to hear me out." Vivianne stiffly placed the glass of water back on the table, her makeup today was soft, almost no product on her face. "Beta Marcus and Gamma Baldwin, I also appreciate you two for making time in your tight schedules to finally get to learn what happened." Vivianne looked exactly like I'd always known her yet so different with that heaviness in her eyes. I didn't get enough time with her but dinner last night made it clear she was desperate to hold onto something. Desperate to leave all her emotional baggage behind and she needed the support of the people that loved her. The unwavering support of her husband. Was that something I could guarantee? Absolutely. All I needed to do was to consciously stretch out a supporting arm, and heartily comfort her. "I have scars that although clothes cover, my heart could never hide them. Morgè wanted to see Luca break, he had his plans perfect
♡☆CANDACE♡☆Luca was on his phone with Beta Marcus as he led me into his apartment. It had something to do with work. An important meeting tomorrow but Luca looked stressed. Yes he needed that stress taken off his shoulders and who else to, other than me?My knees had, disappointingly, healed before we even parked in the lot. Something about being around Luca's strong wolf made mine respond even in her own way. I stepped in and shrugged off my jacket, the interior wasn't what I'd expected. Quite minimalist, nothing extravagant.Since my bruises were gone and there was now no excuse to be here, I tried to make myself useful and give the Alpha a much-needed calm before he slept. Peacefully in my arms. "How about a hot bath and a massage?" Luca didn't respond. He just sat there at the minibar, searching gaze on my face like I had something there. "Candace, let's talk." I didn't want to talk. Requesting we talk with a gruff stare and serious tone only made my stomach flip."I don't
♡☆CANDACE♡☆"Get in the car, Candace and don't be stubborn." If Luca thought I'd jump for joy and skip right into his arms because he drove by then he was gravely mistaken. I, after all, was done chasing him. He had a life to live, a devotion to his pack members and a family to reunite and I fell into none of those categories so why then was he driving behind me, trying to get me in the car? "Do you know what time this is?" Ignore. Just ignore him. Without sparing his car a glance I kept going, like I was the only one on the driveway. My tears long dried and the only thought in my head was making him feel the same pain he'd put me through tonight. "You're acting very childish and you know it." That did the magic. That broke my tongue from the roof of my mouth forcing me to whirl around to his rolled-down window and huff. "I act however I want." Then I continued walking, determined to get away from him. The car wasn't following anymore. He remained there with the headlights s
♡☆CANDACE ♡☆"Get out." Alpha Luca muttered. His gaze was dark and condescending. His thick dick now shrouded by the velvet smoking robe he pulled on. Yet, it was hard to look away. "Did you not hear our Alpha? You stupid omega!" His slut, a lady in her thirties barked at me, eyes smoldering. Her

♡☆CANDACE♡☆Sexy as fuck. Nah, this wasn't me. There was no fucking way the girl staring back in the full-length mirror was me, the ostracized omega girl they loved to walk all over. The very plain and "unattractive" runt. I looked unreal after the complete makeover the glam team gave me. My pa
♡☆CANDACE♡☆The second I stepped into the sinful excuse of a store, my knees turned to jelly like my body already recognized what it was walking into. Heat crept up my face and ears leaving them rosy.
