Yuri’s pov:

I was still glaring at Leo when some white-coat made his way into the room after a curt nod.

Looking up, I wasn’t too surprised to see Dr David. He was loyal to a fault to Leo. It had always been so.

Almost despite myself, I couldn’t help but recall everything that had happened over the course of my previous life. It all started with the check-ups when I was pregnant with Violet. The distaste the doctor had for someone like me – some scheming social-climber – had been obvious, and I had often shrinked in on myself when he examined me.

Then, I remembered my tragic wedding day. Aurora had attempted suicide, but we all knew it was more of a desperate call for attention than a need for help. Nevertheless, Leo had rushed to her side, leaving me alone, as to be expected of a blindly devoted man.

And yet, it didn’t take long for a rogue to get in, and conveniently, his attack had aimed my hand. Hearing footsteps, after I shouted to the moon and back, he disappeared into the

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    43. I Don't Buy It

    Yuri’s pov: Naturally, I couldn’t perpetually avoid Aurora. Seeing as she was going to become the Luna, and this party was organized for her engagement party with Alpha Leo, crossing paths with her almost seemed like fate. “Oh, Yuri, you came,” her eyes gleamed with something I wasn’t quite comfortable with, even as a small smile graced her lips. She donned a lilac haute couture gown which must cost a fortune, hugged her curves beautifully, showed just enough cleavage to entice, and basically ticked all the boxes for a woman to feel pretty on her special day. Some people were born with luck. I didn’t have much of that in my previous life, but I had every intention of rewriting history. So far, I wasn’t doing too poorly, I’d dare say. “I was invited, wasn’t I?” I retorted simply, not quite in the mood to humor her, ready to sidestep her… only she blocked my hasty retreat. “Let’s be the sisters we were always meant to be,” she offered me a big smile, teary eyes, and all, and I fel

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    42. Cat Lady

    Yuri’s pov:“You have to attend, Yuri,” mom kept saying over and over again, making me beyond fed up with this phone call. “It’s Aurora’s and Alpha Leo’s engagement party. Many people will be in attendance…” “Why would I even care about the she-devil getting engaged?” I retorted, face-palming, and wondering what mom was even thinking. “Don’t do this to me!” She went on in a wobbly voice, “Regardless of your sister’s ways…” I didn’t let her finish, and cut in at once, “She’s just my stepsister, mom. And not a very good one at that.” I heard her deep inhale and soon she conceded, “Fine, she’s not the best, but you cannot allow this chance to slip through your fingers. You might meet some handsome young man who’d be worthy of you.” “That’s all you think about, huh?” I sighed, unable to hide the disappointment from my voice. “I am a mother first and foremost,” she all but growled at me. “I wouldn’t want you to end up like an old cat lady.” “I am only 20, mom,” I shook my head even

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    41. Like An Old Couple

    Leo’s pov: The car was gliding across the road, making its way into the city, when the sight of the woman who had me obsessed caught my eye. “Park right here,” I instructed the driver. The man didn’t hesitate to do so, no questions asked. That was exactly what he was paid to do – drive without asking questions. Thankfully, the car’s windows were tinted, so the chances of me being found out, of her getting upset at me were slim… Hell, I didn’t even know why I cared what Yuri freaking Jones had to say about my stalkerish tendencies, but the issue was that I did care. I watched with a faint smile I didn’t even put on my face consciously, as she ate, a smile on her face, a healthy blush or glow or whatever it was called making her magnificent. I saw one of her colleagues put some food on her plate, and she accepted it willingly with a nod, and a smile… and that was when I saw red! “Drive!” I all but growled. The car all but shot into the road again. What was I even expecting

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    40. You Remind Me Of Her

    Yuri’s pov: I was deep in the zone, focusing on the design in front of me, trying to find fault with it, as per the intructions I was given, when someone came to pat me on the shoulder. “5 more minutes please,” I let out softly, without even looking at who it could be. “I believe the boss gave you till the end of the day,” Timothy’s voice was smooth and mellow. “I just feel like I might figure it out soon,” I told him sheepishly, refusing to admit that I was almost desperate to understand what was wrong with the design. “We can understand that,” Kevin drawled, agreeing with me readily, “But we don’t run on empty stomachs.” I had looked at the design, from every angle, for a little over 2 hours, and I still couldn’t figure it out. Kevin might be onto something. Maybe I really did need to have lunch with the team and reset.“You know what? You’re right,” I nodded at him, a small smile stretching my lips. “Maybe food is exactly what I need.” “I know I am right,” Kevin’s earnest ex

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    39. The Team

    Yuri’s pov: Today was the day. Today was the day I’d meet a legend – David Stone. I still couldn’t believe I had become an intern at the very firm where he worked. I was nervous when giving my name to the receptionist. I then felt self-conscious when she gave me a once-over, before a small mocking smile made it to her face… Oh heavens, I knew that whatever she was about to say would be like venom. And lo and behold, she didn’t disappoint, “ You won’t last a day.” “That’s for me to decide,” I responded briskly, a fake smile plastered on my face. “3rd floor, on the right. You can't miss it,” she shrugged, rolling her eyes and shaking her head at the same time. If anything, I was more intrigued. I made it to the third floor, with 3 minutes to spare. I gave myself a pep talk right at the door, “You can do this, Yuri. Remember that you need this. Don’t be a klutz, and don’t mess up.” “And for the love of God, move if you’re not going in.” I startled around so fast, I feared I

  • The Alpha's Scorn: His No More    38. His Conflict

    Yuri’s pov: Sophia truly had some nerve, acting so innocent and aggrieved at the same time. Truth be told, I could now see right through her, and could not be fooled by her act. “You’re excused,” I rolled my eyes at her. “The venom you spit is disgusting. Just shut up already.” “Who do you think you are?” She all but spluttered, getting red in the face in her anger, “Who gave you the right to talk to me like this?” “This right was earned after you schemed against me so many times…” I offered her a chilly smile, even as I gave her the stink eye. “I didn’t scheme against you,” she argued feebly. “You have it all wrong, Yuri…” “Right,” I scoffed. “It must have been someone else with the name Sophia who’s like your doppelganger.” “Don’t be like this, Yuri,” she sniffled, turning on the trick that often made me forgive her in the past, but her tears had no effect on me anymore. “I know you’re upset about the competition, but you can’t take your anger on me…” Great, more venom! I
