Lacy's POV

I groan as I sit up, trying to adjust my vision to the dull lighting of the room. I feel a hand on mine, and instantly, I freeze up.

Who was in my bed?

I slowly turn, and I am faced with Vincent. He is sprawled on the bed with his upper body bare, and he's sleeping so peacefully.

My mind slowly remembers all that happened last night.

His hand is on my waist, and I slowly peel it off so that I can stand up.

A sharp pain radiates from my centre and shoots up my spine, making me fall to the bed with a thump. I wince in pain.

Was I bruised down there? He was too rough last night. I lay back in bed and slammed my hand to my face. Why do I keep getting tempted to be with him every time? I should have at least tried to resist. I should have done better.

A tear slips from my eyes, and I start to cry. My whimpers and sobs must have woken Vincent up because he called out my name.

"Lacy", his voice is soft in comparison to how he sounded last night. He touches my shoulder and I

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    DEAR DIARY

    Zella's POV My diary! The one that has all the information about my past life. I had misplaced it when I became rich and finally moved out of the Midnight mansion into mine. I didn't think I would need any of the things I possessed in their mansion again so I left everything in that shallow room and moved into the mansion I bought. "What do you want to do with this tiny old book? I should trash it ma'am Zee.""No!, I mean no, I need it." I comport. "I have some important things documented in there and I have had a fruitless search for it. Sorry, I shouted at you. I didn't mean to." I apologize."It's nothing, Zee," My fist rolled beside me when she said my name that way, but I quickly masked my feelings. Calm down Zee, she can't know you're reborn. I tell myself. "Do you have other chores in the kitchen or any other part of the house? I need to read, we'll continue the unpacking after I'm done reading." "Yes, I was going to tell you that I'm to escort the madam later today to shop

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    DESERVED ROOM

    Zella's POV The distraction in my way has been successfully eradicated—the guy who called himself Lucian. Since he already has a name that begins with an L, he should address himself as Lucifer. Because all men should be called that for their devilish behaviours. Whoever reinvented those creatures called males has done something wrong in the process. I'm sure God didn't create them to be so wicked. My destination? Back home. To reclaim what should have rightfully been mine in my past life, but my ignorance has made me lose it. "I hope you have been refreshed?" Valour says the moment I walk into the living room. He's in his usual spot in the living room—on his king-size chair, reading the fake news in the paper."I guess I am now Dad. Thanks for your concern." I bow my head slightly as I move closer to him, trying not to be too audible to attract the attention of Carina and her pathetic daughter. This is a rare opportunity that might not come for months—dad being alone in the sitting

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    TRADITIONAL HEALING SKILLS

    Zella's POV Stepping out of the eatery, I see a familiar man in his late seventies in a posture that seems like he's about to collapse. "I have seen this man before. But where? Was it in my past life?" I say to myself. Right before my eyes, he collapses, and I quickly rush to his side. "Sir? Can you hear me? What happened?" No response. The old man is out. "Help! Help!" I call, but instead of passersby coming to help out, all I get from them is a snub. Some are even doing a video of the poor man. How can human beings be so cruel? Someone is dying and all that comes to their head is making a video of the scene? Right now, I don't know who else is sane in this so-called world. "Old one, can you hear me? Are you really down or pretending?" I look into his eyes and discover he was actually out. The clothes he is putting on signify him as a well-to-do person and not some old man who pretends to be sick to extort money from people. "He needs help! Someone please call an ambulance!" A

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    THE SYSTEM

    Zella's POV It was a small shoulder push from Lizzie. But I had to make it feel like she had done something more than that. In my previous life, Lizzie had done the same thing to me. But right now that I have the pretentious attention of my so-called parents, I have to make her pay for that day. This is nothing compared to how I planned to take my revenge on the Midnight family, but I have to make each of them pay for the littlest wrongs they've done to me. "What the hell just happened? You pushed your sister because of a mere cloth? When did you become so wicked Liz?" Dad's angry voice. I can tell from his countenance that he's angry for real, and the reason is not far-fetched. The force at which I rolled down the stairs and landed as if I had been seriously pushed by Liz, if I had sustained any injury that could cause any deformity which could stop me from marrying Dave, it would disturb their plans. "I didn't push her Dad, she's lying. She wants to paint.." "Then how come Ze

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    THE AUDACITY?

    DAVE'S POV Did I hear her right? Did she just ask for the engagement to be called off? How dare she? Zella, or whatever her name is, called. Even when I was here in the first place to call off the engagement, she is in no position to. She took steps ahead of me. Only I have the right to cut off the engagement. This family are just so dumb and I don't blame them. I blame Grandma who couldn't match me with someone from the second family. She went ahead to match me with a member of the last family. And I blame Dad too, who decided to follow the old woman's decision blindly, claiming that these fools held the position of the second family, as at the time the pact was made. My coming here wasn't to acknowledge the Pact, but to officially cut off the engagement and offer Mr Valour a deal of a fake engagement between Zella and me while I flex with her little sister, who wants some attention. How dare she humiliate me in such a way? There's no way I'll agree to the nonsense she just spat.

  • The Lycan's Gold Digger Wife    TWO STEPS AHEAD

    Zella's POV Lizzie's room. The perfect place to carry out my plan right now. Lizzie's room is ten times bigger than mine, but how come I never noticed that in my previous life? I was raised by Grandma with so much contentment that I couldn't even differentiate the hatred from kindness. I have never thought of anyone hating me or suspected any strange moves around me.I guess that's why I was easily used and discarded. That will never happen again. I walk into Lizzie's closet, picking a very beautiful red flowery dress. The one she just bought. Mom bought the gown for her a few days back saying she was to wear it to our next school party. The gown is unapologetically beautiful and made with a very high-quality material. I slide it on without delay after having a nice bath in Lizzie's extravagant bathroom. I had lived this day, so I know Lizzie won't come anytime soon. The gown hugs my body perfectly even with my starved body. I'm not so conversant with makeup, but even the mirror a
