Chapter 31Emma’s Pov:I ate breakfast alone. I was told by the chef that my supposed mother-in-law went out for a function with Anna, and Scott’s younger brothers went to school, but they all had breakfast earlier.It was quiet but rather peaceful since it wasn't awkward with Scott’s mother looking from across the table with contempt or disgust, Scott not glancing at me for once, or his little brothers staring at me, giving each other a knowing peek, and then laughing hysterically.I was served a typical English breakfast consisting of bacon, sausages, eggs, baked beans, toast bread, and coffee.I munched on the sausages with so much willingness to eat; it was what I liked more and fed on more among my other dishes. I was starting to eat too much because my unborn wolf was healthy, or so I thought.After I had eaten to my fill, I was exhausted, so I stood up to allow the workers who were waiting on me to do their jobs by clearing where I had just eaten.I ambled along to the sitting
The ride to the mall was smooth and therapeutic. The driver was stoic, but he was glancing my way through his side mirror. Maybe it was just his way to make sure I was comfortable and the ride wasn't bothersome.The streets and roads we passed through were bubbling with people going about their different activities. I watched with glee, like I was some kind of prisoner who hadn't seen the outside world in years.Finally, we pulled up at the mall. It was a big building with small stores clustered around it. The parking space was spacious and wide. It could fit in thousands of cars.The car door opened, revealing the bodyguard who had ushered me into the car earlier on. He followed the car in front of my own vehicle. We had driven all through as a convoy.When I came down, Anna was already out, waiting for me to come out of the car. She linked her hands around mine and dragged me into the mall, with two of the bodyguards following us behind.The mall was packed full of people. I recoile
Color washed away from Anna’s face; it was as if she had just seen a ghost; her eyes were hard and glued to the stranger.My heart was thumping, pain etched my heart, and thousands of thoughts ran through my head like it was a sports car on a highway.“W-w-When did you come back, Ashley?” Anna stuttered; her mouth was open, but no words came out.“I came back like a week ago; I've missed you so much,” said the stranger whose name I just found out as Ashley tugged Anna into her arms.Anna quickly detached herself from free-form Ashley’s grip; she failed woefully at trying to hide her emotions. I could see through her, and it was so obvious that there was more to who Ashley was and the effect that she was having on Anna.“Anna, she must be your friend. Hi, I'm Ashley, and you are?” Ashley suddenly realized I wasn't a ghost and extended her hands to me for a handshake. My eyes skimmed her hands that were racked in my direction, my temper went like a bat out of hell, and I resisted the im
Today was grueling. Exhaustion clung to me like my second skin. The Alpha duties were overbearing; I had just sent Kendrick out to the border area to supervise the supplies I sent over to the Gammas.I was on my way to do a routine check on my department stores in the mall. I was in the company of my best friend, Beta Liam. This was my personal business, as it didn’t have anything to do with my Alpha duties.As I walked into the mall, a sea of eyes greeted me. People scurried towards me to get a glance at me; if not for my hefty body guards that surrounded me like pillars of fire, the people would have toppled over me. I couldn’t blame them; it was Alpha Scott’s effect.We were able to make it past the crowd, and I entered my space. It was a big electronics and gadget establishment. “Good day, Alpha Scott.” Damian, the manager of the shop, scampered out to greet me, bowing down a little as a sign of respect. The rest of the staff in the shop bowed in unison too."Hello, Damian, how is
As I watched them, my wolf grew jealous at the fact that Liam was holding my mate that way.I was triggered to do something, and on impulse, I sauntered towards them and snatched them off of each of them.“Hey man, what the hell? I was just trying to help." Liam groaned; he felt the energy I used to peel him off Emma. I was sorry, but I wasn't sorry; he was literally feeding on my mate’s emotion, and my wolf wasn't happy about it. “I'm sorry, man," I told Liam, rubbing his shoulder to soothe and calm him down.Emma gasped in fear. Now that hurt me and struck me In the chest. I could see the hurt in her eyes clearly. Emma had an effect on me. I couldn't place what exactly; I didn't want any attachment whatsoever. She was just my accidental surrogate, and I wanted her to remain that way. It was proving to be hard because every day that passed, new emotions for her stirred up in my heart.I clasped Emma’s hand, clutching her by my side. I was about to lead her out, but Ashley stopped us
I woke up to the sound of a loud alarm. "Dammit!" Scott cursed under his breath. He moved his hands around to get a hold of the blasted clock. He shut it down and snapped to face me, but I quickly closed my eyes and pretended to still be asleep.I counted thirty seconds before I peeled my eyes open again. Scott was seated in a swivel chair, backing me and the bed. He was shirtless in our well-lit bedroom, and the light was focused on his flawless skin, so I took the moment to admire my beautiful mate. He was typing frantically on his laptop while he muttered some words I could barely hear. Although he had an office in the building, he still created a mini-office in the room. Scott was a workaholic, and I feared that he didn't even have a proper, healthy rest routine.The events of before played in my head, and suddenly guilt washed down my emotions. I embarrassed myself, and Scott was mad at me earlier, so I didn't even know if I should face him. I let my emotions get the best of me,
"Shhh, steady, I’m here for you,” Scott assured. Lust filled his eyes while he spoke to me.I nodded, and he grinned. He removed his hands from inside me and traced them up to my lower abdomen, and in a quick move, he ripped my pants out again.“Not again; I might as well not have underwear anymore,” I cried out.He leaned closely towards me, inching to my ears. He whispered, “I’ll get you all the lingerie money can buy."I rolled my eyes. “That would be when I have none left because you made an empty promise before.” I had to remind him just in case he forgot.“Say no more,” he replied. He grabbed my face as I was about to say another thing, and he brought his lips crashing on mine.He dominated my lips so much that I had no choice but to submit. I was not a pro at kissing, but I was learning from the best, which was my mate Scott.He inched in; his tongue was asking to gain entrance, and I allowed it in; he played with my tongue.He kissed me so passionately, having patience with my
I just had the best time of my life; it never occurred to me that Emma could be experienced in giving a blow. Thinking about it made me crave more. I stood up from the bed to join Emma in the bathroom. I wondered why she was still not yet out; it’s been far too long since she went in. As I moved into the luxurious bathroom, I was expecting to see her in the shower, but she wasn't there, so I scanned the bathroom until my eyes were immediately drawn to the large bathtub by the corner of the bathroom.Her silhouette was glaring through the steam, her long hair falling over her shoulders, and I felt my heart beginning to thump faster at the sight of her sexy figure in the tub.I began to sense my body come alive as I approached the bathtub. My phallus was slightly hard for her. I dropped into the water, opposite her; my back was resting by the tub, and for a moment, I just gazed at her. I could feel the yearning for her in my body, and as our eyes jammed, I knew I wanted her. I dragged
