LOGINChapter 48Alyssa I was wise enough not to take their words for bluff. “You heard what he said and you better not try to play any funny games with us. If you try anything funny, I personally wouldn’t hesitate to shoot you.” The driver said with a cold glare on his face.If the passenger definitely wasn’t going to do it, I knew he would. You need to be very careful Alyssa. My plan was very brief. Wait till I got some time alone from them and look for a way to escape and run till I get some type of help.But this place looked so desolate and abandoned, no cars passed on the road. And I felt like they intentionally stopped here because it was abandoned. How long could I possibly run for? I needed help. I shrugged the thought off my head. The first step was to get to the restroom first.They looked around to be sure there was indeed no one here and when they were finally convinced, they turned back to me. “Now, we’re going to untie your legs and follow you to the restroom, you have
Chapter 47Alyssa I felt a sense of relief when it finally came off. My throat felt dry; I needed water or something to drink to ease the dryness and burning.Getting it off was enough progress. At least they were nice enough to take it off. It seemed like the man in the passenger seat was nicer than the one driving. Or so I thought. I sucked in a breath, trying to adjust because it was only now that I could breathe properly. It took a second, or two before my voice finally came back.The whole situation remained confusing to me. I still hadn’t gotten the answers I wanted but the important thing was to stay alive. No matter what I tried to do, I wasn’t going to do it at the expense of my life. But at the same time, I didn’t want to wait till they got to wherever they were taking me.What if I never make it out?“Who are you guys?” I asked calmly. My tone was still rough and unsteady but it was quite clear and that was all that mattered.None of them replied immediately. They simpl
Chapter 46Alyssa Something was wrong.I could feel it even though I couldn’t quite see or understand what was going on. My wolf was also restless, so I was very certain that something was wrong. My head was aching so badly, and my body was tossing from one place to another in the back seat. It felt like I was being dragged somewhere I didn’t want to be. My hands felt stiff, probably tied because my entire body was aching all over. My eyes slowly opened, ignoring the painful migraine I felt. I looked around, and the dark interior was the first thing I noticed.This didn’t look familiar to me at all.This wasn’t home or the hotel.The low rumble of an engine.I was in a car, a moving car.How the hell did I get here? The first thing that came to my mind was Duncan. I tried looking around but there was no sign of him. I felt confused, and scared.
Chapter 45Alyssa That was all I cared about at the moment. The truth. He paused, as I had just said something extraordinary. Of course, I expected him to hesitate because he knew damn well that he had hidden that information from me on purpose. “What about it?” He asked, rather unbothered. “The truth. Why didn’t you tell me about it? All this time, I kept on wondering why she hated me so much. Little did I know it was because she was trying to mark a territory!” Because why the hell was he being so nice to me now? Trying to act like Ryan was at fault for his mistakes. It made no sense to me that he was starting to act jealous of Ryan’s and my familiarity when I wanted all of that from him to begin with.But time and time again, he succeeded in making me look like an absolute fool because I wanted him to see me the way I saw him.And even when I was mad at him, my heart betraye
Chapter 44DuncanThe game ended thanks to Lyra’s unnecessary announcement. I tried avoiding Alyssa’s gaze because I could see the hurt in her eyes.I never meant to hide it from her intentionally; I really thought it didn’t matter and that she’d never find out.Why did I even participate in this type of game to begin with? I should have known that this was one of Lyra’s schemes. She planned this all along. She wanted to let Alyssa know on purpose and we weren’t together anymore so what was all this drama about?I watched Alyssa as she left the table. I knew she was hurt and I wanted to go after her but that wouldn’t make any sense at the moment. The game stopped and everyone went back to their drinks, waiting till it was finally time to leave. Ryan soon left the table in search of Alyssa.Lyra was seated behind me, acting like she was clueless about what was happening. I wanted to wait till we got to the hotel before addressing her but I was too pissed. I stood up from the table
Chapter 43Alyssa My body started heating up all over. The way everyone here knew and I didn’t have a single clue killed me.W…when did that happen?Duncan and Lyra? Were they lovers?If Ryan knew about that, why didn’t he mention it when he was telling me about Duncan’s dead mate?It felt like they all intentionally kept it from me. And I was first affected on both sides. No wonder she hated me so much. She saw me as some sort of threat. I thought that was her personality but I’ve seen how she reacts with other female employees, she was naturally bossy.But she wasn’t as mean as she was with me with them. And now I understand it all.And the biggest betrayal was from Duncan. After all this time we’ve spent together, he couldn’t take time to tell me that he had a history with Lyra?Here I was thinking he finally acknowledged our kiss, who would have thought he was actually talking about Lyra?I could feel tears gathering at the corner of my eyes, threatening to fall. I didn’t know
Chapter 42Alyssa Why do I ever try to predict this man? There’s no way he actually agreed to play the game Lyra suggested. Not just any game, but a never have I ever type. Everyone on the table was equally as surprised as I was because we all knew the type of person Duncan was. He’d never agre
Chapter 41Alyssa “Come on, we all had a long day, we should all go out and have some drinks,” Lyra said excitedly. Ugh, shut up already. Jerry and the others started walking towards us after hearing Lyra’s suggestion. Of course, they wanted a drink and I had no objections but why does it have
Chapter 40Alyssa I walked behind Ryan, who was talking at the front. The manager persuaded us to take a tour before getting back to business, and after a little persuasion, Ryan agreed. He looked over to me to be sure I was comfortable with that and I nodded in affirmation. I wanted to see what
Chapter 39Alyssa“What are you doing? Let go of me!” She yelled at the top of her voice.There’s no way she was really trying to act innocent over here. Such a thief!We were now in a less crowded area, so her screams wouldn’t attract anyone, and the few people who passed by simply minded their ow
