View MorePART ONE~Ophelia's POV~Kelly moved away from me and went towards the door. I just stood there, expecting to see who it was that came here. Something in me was hoping that it would be HIM. Opening it, she moved back and Ryan peeped in with a cocky smile."Sorry but you left your purse." He said as he handed it over to me. I stared at him with scrutiny. He could have just called me back. Right?He looked at Kelly and I noticed her move uncomfortably on her feet. "Okay, you can leave now. Thank you anyway for the ride. I really appreciate." I said again with a feigned smile that I was not even sure it was there and he nodded his head at me before moving back. Kelly slammed the door shut and glared at me before going to sit down. Just as I was about to utter a word, a knock came again and I groaned out loud. What does he want?I walked towards the door with the aim to speak my mind to him but then I pushed the door open, "I am quite thirsty. I was thinking if you would welcome me insid
CHAPTER FOURTEEN /THE ALPHA’S SECOND CHOICE- A Bid To Hate/ ^ EMMA’S POINT OF VIEW^ Second day of my cooking lessons with Yuna was fun as well. No dull moment at all. She moved swiftly like she belonged to the place. The way she smiled and placed things carefully fascinated me. My mother was never one to cook in the kitchen. She came from a long line of wealthy family and she was betrothed to my father, no wonder she cared no less if any of her daughters was given to a monster for the aim of protection. Reina, our maid, was the one who did all of the cooking and everything. While we, her daughters, were not needed anywhere. We went to school, thankfully my father was not against it. “Mix the beef and place it carefully in the pan.” Yuna instructed, turning to the other direction of the counter and I was left confused. How was I going to do this? I have never done it before. She seemed to have noticed I was not doing anything. She arched a brow at me. "You really have not done t
CHAPTER THIRTEEN/THE ALPHA’S SECOND CHOICE- A Bid To Hate/~13- As it should be^ KELVIN’S POINT OF VIEW^I hated people that are always late. I hated them with all my guts. Punctuality and consistency were the keys to working with me but obviously these Alphas cannot comprehend it. The meeting was said to be 1 PM prompt and this is 1:01 and no one is yet to be present except… Steven shifted the time earlier. I will hard a word or two with him when I get back to the pack but for now, let me deal with these Alphas who seem to care no less about their packs.Luckily, the door creaked open and I checked the time, 1:10 PM. Good. So early. Alpa Heil and his Beta walked in, both of them staring at me like I had grown horns.“Anything perhaps wrong with my features?” I asked.Alpha Heil laughed. “Of course not. It is just that-”“I held the my position as always being the most punctual Alpha, tight. Isn’t it?”“You see…”“Please take your seat. The one who called for the meeting is not even
CHAPTER TWELVE/THE ALPHA’S SECOND CHOICE- A Bid To Hate/~12- I Am No one’s Luna^ KELVIN’S POINT OF VIEW^I have never hit a woman. No matter what she did. No matter how she touched me without my permission. No matter what she said. I have always made sure I was not stained with that but now… She was the first. I recognized the pain that flashed through her eyes. The most unreal part was that my heart had skipped. My heart fucking skipped when she looked at me like that. Like I was the monster she hated to the core. Like she knew I could do any other thing than push her away like I did. Not like I wanted to. I was blinded by the rage. I could not even think straight.“Now you will have to rectify that, Kelvin.” Steven said through the mind link, directing a look at me.“Maybe if you just fuck off, I might be able to think straight.” I bit back.His lips pulled a quick smile that did not reach his eyes. “No, you need a pestering wall and I will be just that wall.”“I will crumble yo
CHAPTER ELEVEN/THE ALPHA’S SECOND CHOICE- A Bid To Hate/~11- In Silence And In Anger^ KELVIN’S POINT OF VIEW^Steven’s feet made a scraping noise as he entered the training ground. I began to pull off my shirt and undid my belt when I caught Emma’s scent. I threw her a look over my shoulder and from my hindsight, I watched her turn her back.Not like I cared if she saw anything.I pulled off my trousers and hung them properly before getting into my training attire. Steven was deliberately being slow and I hated it. The kind of anger that was boiling within me was slowly snapping the little rope of patience holding my sanity together.I waited. I did. Because I would have no mercy on him. He started this and he must have taste of the consequences. I had left work because I could not think, not to talk of working.After he was done, he faced me and tipped his chin.“Alpha Kelvin.” He acknowledged with a bow. A bow that said he would also be ruthless. He would not think I was his Alph
CHAPTER TEN/THE ALPHA’S SECOND CHOICE- A Bid To Hate/ ~10- Weaklings^ KELVIN’S POINT OF VIEW^“That was really cruel of you,” Steven said, entering the office. I knew I would hear the reprimand from my Beta the moment I left my ‘luna’ in the middle of a silenced hall. I did not want her depending on me for motivation because I was not one. I will never be one to her.“Don’t start.” I gritted out.“I will. I will fucking start Kelvin. I am your Beta and I am to make sure my Alpha is fully sane.” He said adamantly. I hissed out. “Steven, don't overstep your bounds.” “I am not. Kelvin, I am not. You left her there. Did you see the look on her face? She was helpless. Scared. Afraid that she was not accepted and-”“Was she accepted?” I rose to my feet. “The sooner she accepts the reality, the better for her, Steven. This time… I will not try. I will not even. Not even you or Yuna will make me do it. She is only a Luna in title, not mine.” I cut in, glaring at him.His shoulders slumpe
/THE ALPHA’S SECOND CHOICE- A Bid To Hate/~09- Death^EMMA’S POINT OF VIEW^Kelvin led me away from the couple is and Steven’s voice brought my attention to the podium where he stood, his eyes glinting with a strange kind of joy. Why was he happy?“As we all know the reason we were all invited to the welcoming party.” He started. “Thanks to the Moon Goddess who blessed us with a young and elegant Luna. Her name is Emmalyn Raine.” He announced, sending a smile across to me. My heart beat faster against my chest as the attention was now shifted to me now.Kelvin’s hand snuck around me and a warm shudder ran down my spine. I turned a look at him but there was no sort of expression on his face. I faced the people and managed to pull up a smile. One that did not reach my face.Steven urged me to come to the podium and I wish I had the access to the pack mind link. I did not know for long I stood in reluctance.“You should go.” Kelvin bit out behind me, his voice having a bit of impatience
CHAPTER EIGHT/THE ALPHA’S SECOND CHOICE- A Bid To Hate/~08- Glinting Hatred^EMMA’S POINT OF VIEW^I stared at the emerald green gown, my eyes dropping slightly. Today was the day for the welcoming party and I could not stop the feeling of dread that filled my heart. For the first time in my life, I wanted to look for a place to hide or even run away but this was the responsibility I now carried and could not run away from, even though I so much wanted to.I did not tell Kelvin I did not have a dress for the welcoming party. I did not want him buying me a dress even though I knew he would not. Not like he cared.The gown was from my twentieth birthday. I had forced my way in getting that gown because I wanted to wear it for Marcus. Ironic, right? Marcus never liked it, despite it being his best color.I took it off the hook and got into it, my hands trembling a bit. Would it be like that day when they mocked me? I proceeded to the mirror and let out a sigh as I wore the matching sil
CHAPTER SEVEN/ ALPHA’S SECOND CHOICE- A Bid To Hate/07~ Ungroomed and Untamed^Emma’s Point Of View^As soon as Kelvin left, a wave of fresh air blew across me and the tension ceased. I let out a deep breath because I have been holding my breath since I sat beside him. I would not lie the way his strong, spicy cologne was all over the place made me unable to breath. The lady who I now knew her name to be Berett uttered a snort just across me.“Luna, huh?” She asked, sending a glare across to me.“Be nice, Berett.” Yuna cautioned her as she dropped a plate before Devin who still said nothing since he came.“So, Emma. Have you got any plan for today?” Steven asked me and I shook my head, relaxing against the chair.If I was at my father’s pack, I would have sneaked out with Marcus and probably would have eaten my lungs out at Kiss-Don’t-Tell as we laughed and talked about our unfulfilled future. It was a restaurant that was a home to several werewolves at my father’s pack. We dine an
