After a long day that stretched far too long, I was exhausted. The day had been an eventful one, starting from the mind-blowing session I had with my Alpha mate, Scott, then the visit from the Elders and, then meeting the Alpha’s handsome Beta Liam. I wanted a full-body massage, maybe it was my pregnancy hormones or, just me being tired from overstressing my body. I wished I could get a massage but, no one would be willing to, not even my so-called mate. I didn't know where he was, since he angrily left with his Beta because he was trying to be nice to me. I hadn't set my eyes on him since then. I had longed for a mate who would love me so much and shower me with attention but, instead, I got the opposite, maybe I was indeed cursed like my stepfather said because, nothing ever worked in my favour. A knock at the door disturbed me from my train of thought. The knock was soft and polite and I wondered who it might be. “Come in,” I called out. I wasn't ready to stand up to open the
Chapter 39Emma’s PovThe moment he slid his tongue in, a surge of euphoria hit me. This was my first time experiencing this kind of pleasure, and it felt so good.I was over the moon, and I didn't want to come back again. I was tugging his hair and shoving his head forward into me.He used his tongue so well, locating the exact spot that he was required to lap on. I wondered how he was this good—was this an Alpha male thing, or was it just because he is Scott Coldstone?As he nibbled and gnawed on me softly, it transmitted waves through my body. I screeched in delight loudly. I didn't care if anyone could hear me; that was the least of my problems.My body convulsed as my juice gushed out freely. He sucked on them, but I wasn't still satisfied.He stood up half-length as his knees were still on the bed. He removed his clothes quickly and removed my tank top; that was the only clothing I had on me.I helped him remove it quickly; I wanted more, and I wanted him badly. He grinned as he
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,
