"So you were trying to compel me"Mariana said to him and Luke was shocked the more."Why do you seem so surprised?"she asked him but Luke couldn't find the word to reply her."I know about everything already,the existence of werewolves, vampires and witches,I know everything about you"she said to Luke."How did you find out?"Luke asked her."it doesn't matter how I found out, what matters is that I know everything"Mariana replied him."Then does that mean that you know that you are my mate"Luke asked her.Mariana wasn't expecting him to ask her that question,he was being so straight forward."Yes,I found out this morning,so this explains the reason why you have been helping me"Mariana said to him."I am glad somehow that you know everything about me now and I hope you also remember that you are my mate,that means that you don't have any right to leave my side,we are meant to be together"Luke said smiling.he was happy that he didn't have to go to through the process of explaining every
Mariana went to her room after exchanging words with Luke,she was really tired of everything happening in her life.the only thing she sought was peace of mind.MARIANA'S POV.I was really angry with myself for saying that he was sent to make my life miserable,I hate saying hurtful words to him.i don't know how to tell him that am in love with him but I don't think it's necessary.i don't want to hurt Alex,it's better for me to keep my feelings to myself.i know that he loves me but nothing can happen between us,I can't hurt Alex.Speaking of Alex,it's been a long time since I talked to him and he is not even bothering to check up on me,guess he is still angry with me about the kissing incident of Mr Luke and I.I have a lot of explaining to do when I get back home,I hope he believes me.Mariana picked her phone up and dialed Alex's number but he didn't pick up.she tried again but he didn't pick up.on her third trial,the phone was switched off.sye was so troubled,she didn't know what her
Few hours later, Mariana woke up feeling very tired and most importantly hungry.as if her stomach knew what she was thinking,it grumbled loudly.She got up sluggishly from the bed and headed downstairs to the dining room."Hey, come"she said to a maid who was passing by."Yes ma'am, how can I help you?"the maid said to Mariana."Please can you help prepare food for me,I am so famished"she said to the maid and the maid nodded."Ok,ma'am,I will do that, just give me some minutes"the maid said to her and left for the kitchen.Mariana didn't know what to do to pass out time,she decided to watch television,she sat down and put the television on.While watching the television,she dozed off on the couch.Few minutes later the maid from earlier walked up to her."Ma'am"the maid called but she was not responding."Ma'am"the maid called again, this time tapping her shoulder."Yes,"Mariana muttered, opening her eyes slowly."What is it?"she asked the maid."The food is ready,I have set it in the
"I am okay, could you please leave me alone"I said, swatting his hands away,I could see his eyes turn dark.I was scared of what he might do to me but I did well to mask my Expression.i ignored him and tried to walk away."Mariana"I held him and called my name,I stopped on my track and faced him."What is it?"I asked."You should go and prepare for the event we are attending tonight,it's almost time we left,I have told the designers to prepare some clothes for you,you will choose which one you prefer,I don't want to wait for you when I want to go"Luke said to Mariana.All this while he had been speaking,I didn't know what he was saying,all I could see was the movement of his mouth.I could hear a buzzing sound in my ears,I felt like everything around me was spinning."Mariana!!!"my name was the last thing I heard before there was black out.LUKE'S POV.I noticed immediately that something was off with Mariana Because I could feel that she wasn't listening to what I was saying.My eye
The doctor examined her well,he gave her some injections and prescribed drugs for her."It's just a slight fever, Don't worry,she will get better soon if she takes her drugs"the doctor said to Luke."Is that all?"Luke asked."Yes and she doesn't need stress,also give her enough food and water"the doctor advised."Are you sure she would be okay?"Luke asked the doctor."Yes,you don't have to worry too much,she will be okay"the doctor said to Luke."Okay, thanks for your service,you will receive your payment from Hector"Luke said to him."Okay"the doctor said and left.he was surprised that Luke actually thanked him,he could not believe his ears.After the doctor had left, Luke touched Mariana on the forehead,her temperature had gone down.he could see sweats forming on her forehead,it was a sign that the treatment worked.He was glad that she was okay.he stayed beside her waiting for her to wake up.Few hours later,Mariana opened her eyes to see Luke asleep beside her,he was holding her h
Luke went to her room but he didn't see her but he could perceive her scent in the room.He traced her with her scent and he found her in the balcony watering the flowers.Her hair was blowing in the wind and she was trying to use her hand to put her hair in place while watering the flowers."I see you love flowers"Luke said to her, hearing his voice, Mariana stopped what she was doing and faced Luke."Who doesn't love flowers, what are you doing here?"she asked him."Why didn't you eat your food?"he asked her."It's none of your business whether I eat or not, just leave me alone"she replied."You are sick and you need food in order to recover"he said to her."Don't act like you care about me because you don't,"Mariana said to her."What has come over you, sometimes I don't understand you"Luke said to her."I thought you have a party to attend, don't you think you are late for the party"Mariana said to him.Luke sighed."I don't know what do with you anymore,you are so stubborn, just r
DAMON'S POV.I Know Alex loves Mariana and this was going to affect my plan.i prefer using her twin sister because I think Mariana is kind and she wouldn't have the heart to kill her sister.I hope everything goes perfectly as planned so I can finally have my revenge on Luke.**************In Lucas mansion, people from different calibers has already arrived.the reporters were seen outside taking photos and questioning well known officials who attended the party.As soon as Luke stepped out of his car,the reporters recognized him immediately as the well known business tycoon and the owner of the popular dynamic company.They rushed him immediately and started taking photos of him,they wanted to ask him questions too but his guards were there to stop them from coming in contact with Luke.He went straight to greet Mr Lucas."Happy birthday"he said to Mr Lucas.they were discussing when Kate saw them.she approached them immediately and greeted Luke.She couldn't stop admiring Luke,he lo
Kate could not contain her joy anymore. She was smiling from ear to ear. She was just waiting for Mariana to take the drink already. The delay was too much for her. But she could not stand with her anymore so if nobody would suspect her if she drank the wine. "I have to attend other guests,I hope you enjoy the party"she said to Mariana before leaving.Mariana was alone again,she was really bored,she wondered how rich people enjoyed this type of party.she was in her thoughts when a man approached her.he seems to be interested in her.Francis extended his hand toward Mariana who was still holding the glass of wine in her hand.

"I am Mariana Peters" Mariana said while giving him the best smile. "Ohh… Mariana, what a lovely name. As lovely as you" he said to her and Mariana laughed out again.
