She walked down the stairs and into the room where she was to dress for her wedding. She glanced at Amy, who sat on a chair with her head resting on her palm, and her brow creased a bit.Loreen's eyes darted around and abruptly stopped on a manikin dressed up in a long white dress, which was her wedding dress. Her eyes broadened a little as she scrutinized the gown. This outfit looked so breathtaking that it could make any woman who laid eyes on it fall head over heels. It is a type of sleeveless dress that hugs one body and displays its curves. It had diamond stones embedded as a belt around the waist. Its body was designed with tiny fragments of diamonds, which made it sparkle and shine amongst the best.Loreen's eyes narrowed, and her hand balled into a tight fist. Her father outdid himself this time. A soft chuckle escaped her mouth, and she shook her head.She glanced at Amy, who was now staring at her and walked to the table in the room. She picked up a scissor that was placed i
Swathed in a pristine white suit, Adepe sat on the sofa in the living room with a gray mask covering half of his face, as usual, leaving his emerald green eyes visible. His raven black hair, which was combed neatly, perfectly fell over his shoulder to his waist. He stared at Mr. Adolpho, who sat opposite him, with his pitch-black eyes, also staring at him. "Where is your daughter?" Adepe's face darkened a little."She will be down in a minute." Mr. Adolpho smiled awkwardly and glanced at the middle-aged man with a black suitcase on his lap, seated beside Adepe.As the clock ticked and the time enacted, cold sweat dripped down Mr. Adolpho's back, and his hand secretly balled into a fist. 'I will kill this girl,' he thought, with a slight grimace on his face.Just when he was about to send someone else to fetch Loreen, Adepe's nose suddenly twitched, and he sat up straight on the sofa. His eyes gazed intently at the long, wide stairs, and his wolf's breathing became unsteady.[She's her
Everyone in the room, including the lawyer, stared at the motionless couple, patiently waiting for what was meant to happen next. However, nothing transpired. The couples just stood still, staring at each other, one staring with cold eyes while the other started with bewildered eyes."Ehem!" The lawyer coughed, breaking the awkward silence and snapping the two back to reality. His eyes darted around, and a sheepish smile formed on his lips. "I certify you both husband and wife." He blinked with a grimace face and adjusted his glasses. This had to be the most awkward marriage he had ever held in his entire life. Anyway, he wouldn't blame the innocent girl.Loreen and Adepe averted their gazes from each other and glanced at everyone in the room, including the maids and the bodyguards, who were still staring at them with uncomfortable eyes. Adepe glanced at Alex, who had a slight grimace on his face, and a dangerous glint flashed in his eyes.To break the heavy tension, Mr. Adolpho gestu
Loreen's face obscured the moment she heard those words. She stared into his eyes and glared at him. "Your wife?-" She crazily chuckled and threw her head back. "-I believe it will be more fitting to call me a slave because that is what I have been since being sold to you." She scoffed as she threw him a disdained look.Adepe looked at her and gazed into her pitch-black eyes. An unknown glint flashed in his eyes and it narrowed. He was hurt! Fuck!, a human girl dared to hurt him. So what if he bought her? That still doesn't mean she can hurt him! This is one of the reasons werewolves reject their mate if they turn out to be human. Humans never feel the mate bond. If she wasn't human, she probably understood that he didn't buy her but just wanted to keep her by his side.He took a deep breath, and his emerald green eyes turned a little shade of gold. He shut his eyes immediately and swallowed hard. Why can't he or Kai control themselves around this girl? Is it because she's their mate?
Loreen's face turned ashen, and she yelled angrily. "Take your filthy hands off me!" She placed her hands on his bare chest and tried to forcefully push him away. However, Adepe's hold on her waist tightened more, and he tried to use his other hand to hold her in one place, but it unknowingly touched one of her little mountains.Loreen's eyes widened immediately, and her face turned a dark shade of red, showing how outraged she was. She glared at him with rage in her eyes and slapped him across the face, causing the mask on his face to fall off.Both of them stilled for a moment, and Loreen's eyes blinked in disbelief as they stared at Adepe's revealed face. Adepe fluttered his long lashes and chuckled as his hand touched her cheek. "I am sorry, little wife, but if you had stopped struggling, my hands wouldn't have accidentally touched there, nor would you have seen my hideous face." He caressed her cheek and a smile formed on his lips.Loreen blinked nervously as she couldn't take h
[Dear little wife, I am sorry about my behavior last night, but it was your fault and mine too. Anyway, what I am trying to say is... as compensation for what happened, I prepared a nice breakfast for you]'As if he's the one that made it,' Loreen scoffed as she thought. However, her eyes broadened a little when she saw the next paragraph.[I know that right now, you must be thinking that I wasn't the one who prepared it. But little wife, let me tell you that breakfast was made with my blood and sweat, so you must eat it. Please let me know what you think of it when I return home.Adrik, your dashing husband]"Humph!" Loreen sneered and dropped the note into the pocket of her jeans shorts. She glanced at the plates and clicked her tongue as though contemplating whether to eat the food or not. She shrugged and walked over to sit on the sofa.She opened the plate and her eyes fell on a mouth-watering, well-garnished breakfast. "Whoa.." She picked up the spoon and her eyes glanced at the
Adrik's hand, which was about to pick up the document on the table, halted, and he slowly turned his eyes to gaze at Selena. His green orifices instantly changed to a deep red and his fangs became visible. Before Selena could analyze what would happen next, she found herself gripped around the neck and hoisted up by Adepe with one hand.Adepe shut his blood-shot eyes and glared at her as soon as he opened them. His fingers gradually began to pierce into her skin, cursing lines of blood to drip down his fingers.[Let me out, Adrik!! Am freaking out!! I want to tear this woman into pieces] Kai's red eyes glared at Selena, and it howled in rage at Adrik.Adepe gritted his teeth and held Kai from breaking free. He knows that once Kai bursts free, Selena will turn into meat on a chopping board. In werewolves, the wolf side is hot-blooded compared to the human side.Selena, who was still being hoisted up by Adrik, struggled to free herself from his grip, but it was to no avail. The more she
'Hey, Victor, how are you?''Doing well... How was it? Did you get anything?'[No... I don't have anything yet. My dad will be leaving next week, so I guess that's when I will have a chance to check those files][Loreen , What if it turns out that-]'Then sh*it will get real.' Loreen 's eyes narrowed dangerously as she answered sharply, and her brow creased.[Damn, you sound really scary. Anyway, I will give you a call once I do]'Thank you,' Loreen said, pressing the red button to end the call. She looked up at the sky, and a deep sigh escaped her lips. She stuffed her phone into her pocket and leaned back on the swing-like chair to relax. Placing the neatly arranged papers into the drawer, Adepe stood up from his chair and adjusted his suit. He shoved his hands into his pocket and shot a glance at Alex, who sat on his desk near the wall. He waved at him and motioned for him to follow. "Let's go." They walked to the car, and Adepe took his seat at the back.Alex started the car's en
