INICIAR SESIÓNArianaMy marriage to Damian had always been more about power than love.The only difference was that I had been the last one to realize it. I had fought with my heart, meanwhile he had always fought with strategy.Right now, we are on our way to the Zeus Mansion. Apparently, his family wanted to have dinner with us.Euggghh… now that they knew we were back together, maybe they wanted us over to show me some fake love and give me some useless advice.I glanced at Damian as he drove in silence. I had opted to sit at the back, and after a little back-and-forth, he let me have my way. Although after that, he didn’t attempt to have any conversation with me. I kept mute too grateful for the silence. I was thinking about a lot of things.The last few days haven't really been the best for me, with Damian stealing kisses that made my stomach churn every now and then, to him acting hot and cold.Not like I really care, though, but it was annoying to see him act so caring one minute and then b
Ariana He didn’t answer me and just gestured to the documents once more. Tchhh… so annoying.I unfolded the document slowly and checked its contents. Was this my rejection notice? I thought he’d shredded most of them?“Don’t worry, this isn’t your rejection notice. I shredded the ones within my reach into pieces already. You’re welcome, no need to thank me.” He said as if reading my mind.Jerk.I opened the document to see that it was a marital agreement. Huh?? What was this all about? Why was he giving me this? My eyes moved down the first clause and I read it out aloud on impulse.“Whoever initiates a rejection must compensate the other with an enormous sum and relinquish all shared assets and influence within the pack.” I turned to look at him and he just smiled.What the hell?But it was Damian we were talking about after all, so, of course, there was going to be a financial leash.I tore my eyes off him and continued reading.“During the course of this marriage, the Luna must
ArianaI was at my parents house currently. I’ve been with them for a few days helping take care of my mom. I called Dr. Black to take permission and he told me he understood everything that was going on.It felt good to be around my family after all the troubles of the last week. At least here, my parents didn’t pressure or threaten me, unlike some people. The healer had discharged Mom earlier that morning, but she still looked pale, like the past few days had drained years from her. Dad on the other hand had barely slept and Ryker avoided looking at me for too long, like he was afraid I would shatter if he did.Liam was yet to come home stating that he had something very important that he was taking care of but he still made time to call us every day. My family loved me unconditionally. That was one very clear fact. So how could I drag them further into this war? How could I keep pushing when every push cost them something?It would be foolish for me not to restrategize and just
ArianaThe man sitting right next to me could not possibly have a heart could he? The man sitting beside me looked nothing like the mate the moon goddess had given me.I mean even if he didn’t love me did he have to be so cruel? After all, we have known each other for two good decades. Yet, he was sitting here and leaving me no way out.“Ariana we’ve been together for almost four years and we were happy before all this. I’ve never treated you unfairly so all this drama is really not necessary.”“You can choose to get past this”. He said.“Why should I have to accept any of this? I should accept being cheated on and accept getting poisoned by your mistress?”“You want me to overlook all that?” I snapped hammering my fists against his chest but he caught my hands and forced me to meet his gaze.I grabbed his collar, my eyes red with fury. “You cheated on me and still had the guts to set me up. All for what? Your lover?”“You’ve disrespected me countless times and looked down on my fami
ArianaThe past few days have been hell for me and now I feel so lost. How did everything go so wrong? I was this close and now it seems I was starting all over again. I mean I knew Damian was cruel but this cruel? Even this was a surprise to me.He kept me in prison for four good nights and only made a move to have me released after persuading my parents to make a choice. As soon as he left earlier, my parents had told me about their discussion with him and how they couldn’t afford to see me waste the best years of my life in jail.But what could I do? A man who cheats and does all this isn’t a man to hold on to in the first place. They kept asking me to consider that we had no pack to return to and that the Zeus and Volkstanes weren’t in the same hierarchy.I know my parents didn’t care about all this but they must have compromised or promised Damian something so he could have me released and that was why they were acting this way.Everything was just a mess.I let the cool water
Damian The Volkstanes didn’t call me for a full day. I guess they were still deliberating if they had other options but they called this morning.They finally realized how helpless they were without me. And that in this world? Justice was a luxury that was reserved for those who made the rules.After the call, I went to shower and a few hours later I was ready to go bring Ariana home.I got there and communicated with pack security and lit a cigarette as I waited for her to bring her out. Soon after, I caught a whiff of her scent and froze mid-motion. I looked up to see her approaching me weakly. Her steps were careful and calculated, like she was trying not to fall.She didn’t look like her usual bubbly self, instead she looked drained, tired, pale, and out of life. Had she not eaten for the four nights she was in detention?Oh shit. I hope she’d be able to get past this somehow. It was for her own good and to teach her a little lesson not to go against me. I flickered the cigare
