Chapter 20 - Indebted to him
Cora' POV
Everything that's happened today has left me maimed. I can't believe that the cold, terrifying and domineering Sawyer, followed me to the hospital, then paid for my mother's treatment after buying me a new car and giving me a decent job. His kindness is scary and I feel so indebted to him. But should he not have helped, what would I have done? How could I have coughed up such an amount of money in a short while?
Gradually, I felt all my fears of losing my mum too early in life dissipating with the influx of a new kind of fear. The fear of not being able to repay Sawyer. However I look at it, this debt won't be repaid anytime soon. Whereas, what could he want in return? Men never do anything for free right? If he was just some good samaritan, he would have done the same for other people. But looking at it, I am the only girl he has gotten close to in the club. Could he?.... No, no way. I don't think he sees me like that. But, what if that is his intention? B

Cora's POV After silently leaving the washroom, I went back to the table. Cecil had finished eating and was being led away by Sawyer. "Right on time. You can relax in my office," he said, tossing his card in my direction before leading Cecil away. If I was confused before, I am now perplexed. Where from the sudden niceness and easiness around me? He even gave me the card to access his office. I am so muddled. I waited in his office for a few minutes before Cecil walked in with Sawyer trailing behind her. "Wow, and I thought Cora's office was beautiful. I take it back," she retorted as she scanned Sawyer's office admiringly. "It's just a waste because I don't spend much time in the office myself. I have people taking care of all the paperwork so I spend more time on the field." I didn't understand what he meant by that but I didn't ask. "If you girls don't mind, you can spend the night at my place. I have enough spare rooms. It's closer to the ho
Secret Son of The Dragon Lord Chapter 22 - Sawyer finds out about his rival
Sawyer's POV I got out of the ward rapidly when I realized someone was trying to mind-link with me. I guessed it would be George as he had tried earlier when I was with Cora but I cut him off before she realized anything. She doesn't know what I am yet and revealing it now might terrify her. I called Goerge immediately I stepped out since I knew Cora would like to spend some time with her mum. I reprimanded him as soon as I heard his voice on the phone. "Why did you mindlink? I've been with Cora all this while. You almost ruined everything," I said half-seriously. "You still haven't told her? You are wasting too much time. It's not in our nature to waste so much time. I've already marked my mate but she just can't move in with me immediately. You know humans' ways are different. She wants us to get married the human way after she completes her education before we can move in together," George said with a mix of excitement and dissatisfaction.
Secret Son of The Dragon Lord Chapter 23 - Finally, she is mine
Sawyer's POV "Don't answer that," I added when I saw her face blush. She looks cute when she's embarrassed. It reminded me of when I saw her the first time at the meeting. Her face was red with chagrin. I wanted to kiss the discomfiting moment away but I couldn't get a chance. Well, she even made me lose my words. It was a miracle that no one noticed it at the time. "So, where is this hideout of yours?" Ethically, I was happy she was beginning to feel comfortable around me and we spoke like friends. I think it's good progress. "It's about an hour and a half drive. Just relax. You will like it there, I promise." She smiled. For the first time, I was able to take in her features. She would have passed for a supermodel if not for her height. She was gifted proportionally at the right places. Her thin rosy lips were so tempting. I had to severally control my wolf who could not resist and wanted me to pounce on her. Then I felt a sudden panic. What w
Secret Son of The Dragon Lord Chapter 24 - A Rogue Alpha?
Sawyer's POV I felt her move away during the wee hours of the morning. I thought she wanted to use the bathroom so I did not follow her. I was momentarily lost in how I was going to explain everything. Since she left my side, I haven't slept. It's taken a while and she's still not back. When I checked the bathroom and she wasn't there, I panicked slightly. My emotions were conflicting. I got what I wanted but I don't feel the exhilaration. I rather feel vile. I don't know how she's feeling right now. I can't feel her emotions because I haven't marked her. Remembering the tears I saw in her eyes last night only aggravated my guilt. I went out to look for her and saw her sitting by the stream in the moonlight. It was a very beautiful view. It was still dawn so I couldn't see her face clearly to read her sentiments. Seeing how peaceful she was, I didn't want to disturb her. I turned around to leave before I heard footsteps. With the distance between Cora a
Secret Son of The Dragon Lord Chapter 25 - Embedded in my Soul
Brayden's POV I rained down my fury on Justin when I got to the office the next day. I let out all my resentment toward him. How could he not know? I told him to do something so simple and he failed irritably. I couldn't focus on my meeting with the stakeholders so I postponed it to Wednesday. I also had to prepare more for it. I couldn't believe that I was unable to concentrate on work for the first time in my life. I was always up my abilities when it had to do with work but now, I lacked the focus. I couldn't use the weekend to complete the remaining paper works as I had planned. I called the club myself after Justin messed up. The shit home of a club manager told me that she doesn't work as a stripper anymore. That's good to hear but I wanted to know where she was yet, he could not give me an answer to my question. They would give me information about any girl in their club but not her. I didn't even have her number to begin with and I didn't know w
Secret Son of The Dragon Lord Chapter 26 - Sawyer's Tattoo
Cora's POV Patty was wrong. I felt terrible. What made me hid to her advice? I bundled up my emotions throughout my time alone with Sawyer. It wasn't an easy thing to do but am glad to be able to do so if not, I would have broken down right in front of him and I don't know what he would have done. I am now a hundred percent confused about Sawyer's feelings for me. He never proposed or told me he loved me or wanted me. I don't know what we have now. I felt guilty about everything that had happened but I couldn't stop him. I owe him so much and I couldn't even pay my debt to him. Why would I further anger him? I allowed him to have his way. There was also something in me that wanted to go ahead with it because of my desire to forget the mysterious man but I found myself thinking more and more about him, making me weep in the process. I don't even know what I feel for him except the burning desire to see him one more time. I want to know who he is. Maybe, this w
Secret Son of The Dragon Lord Chapter 27 - Patty is acting strange
Cora's POV "Can you check for me?" My mum said immediately I sat down. I was still thinking about Ava so I had completely forgotten her question. A confused look made its way to my face. "Your boss's tattoo," she clarified. "Oh, that? I will." I have never seen Sawyer's tatoo myself. Last night, I wasn't in my right mind and the lights were also off when I woke up at dawn. I didn't have the time to take any note of his body. But why does she want to know what tatoo it was? Was she suspecting that Sawyer was the one she saw? What she described was similar to what I saw this morning. I had so many questions to ask her but then I remembered my dad again. "Mum, why did you tell me that Dad run-off with another woman?" I looked at her keenly. Her face was a mess. I moved closer and hugged her, assuring her that I wasn't angry or anything. "Well, I just didn't want you to mourn his death. I thought it will be easier if I told you he has run-of
Secret Son of The Dragon Lord Chapter 28 - Sawyer inquires about the incident
Sawyer's POV It was just as I had suspected. Whoever has been looking for Cora must be some powerful person. Maybe a top government official or something. But I had to protect my interest. This time, two men came to my club looking for Cora. When Ken told me, I almost slapped him. He confessed to having sent her out once as an escort when I wasn't around as a form of punishment for being late. But since then, the man never requested an escort until recently, when he specifically requested for Cora. I was boiling with rage. I almost fired him if George hadn't been there. He wouldn't have told me all this if he hadn't been threatened by the men. Since it involved Cora, I went to meet them myself. They won't tell me who they were and appeared to be armed but I wasn't the least scared of them. I excused their ways because they didn't know who I was and it's also forbidden for us to attack humans. Our world must remain a secret in the human world. That was t
