DuncanWhat?At first, I thought my head was playing games with me when I felt it. A warm pair of hands holding on to my hardness.My body reacted before my mind could. The air shifted immediately, although the fire was burning softly but I felt hot immediately.She touched me lightly at first, teasingly and testing then her grip became harder and more deliberate, sending cold shivers down my spine.She was just holding it butChapter 68Duncan “Do you always have to be so stubborn?” She snapped me while treating the wound on my face gently. I wondered if she even knew what she was doing because I’ve never seen her administer treatment even to herself but somehow I was a test monkey. She looked so serious, so serious that I almost bursted out laughing. It was her fault I was in this mess to begin with.If she hadn't attacked me like that, I would be perfectly fine. It’s been two days, and the wound hasn't healed yet, which explains how powerful she was. But that incident made me think deeply about her safety, I'd never seen her act that way before. I was glad that she was capable of protecting herself but I didn’t want her living with the fear of always having to watch her back. That was the reason she was here, so she didn't have to watch her back all the time but I failed once and I was certain she would think about it forever
Chapter 67Alyssa’s POVThe day after,It almost didn’t feel like a dream. It felt too real to me, I wanted it to be real.It was like a remake of the night we spent together at the cave, except this time it was better.Duncan didn’t act shy or hesitant but this time around, he even made the first move. He did everything I knew he wanted to but he kept holding back.I didn’t know exactly what was different about him this time around, but something definitely changed, and I loved every single part of it. He stood firmly staring at me with something I’d never seen before. He stared at me keenly, as though he was sizing me up.I remained there like a prey waiting to be devoured and he was a very sexy predator.The fire cracked slightly, keeping us warm from the very cold atmosphere.This time, he didn’t stop or think twice.His hands weren’t hesitant or careful, he looked at me dead in t
Chapter 66 Alyssa I couldn’t sleep that night. After Ryan dropped me at the hotel, he agreed to spend some time with me, but he couldn’t stay for long because he had to go back to sort out some things. I tried persuading him to come along with me, but he refused, saying that even if he was so eager to catch up with me, Duncan would be so mad that he would take me out. After what had happened, I understood him not wanting to annoy Duncan so I didn’t push further. I watched him leave and wondered how I was going to spend the whole day. I realized I haven’t spoken to my dad in a long time. I wanted to call him but I was so disorganized and I still over what happened so I settled on sending him a text message instead. I knew he was definitely busy too so a text was better for both of us. After waiting for a while and thinking of the perfect message to send, I finally sent it.
Chapter 65Duncan’s POVI couldn’t take my eyes off her. I stared into her soul while she was eating. When I heard that she was missing, different thoughts ran through my mind that night.I remembered how scared I was that something might have happened to her. And how impatient I was while the investigation was going on.I felt like each time wasted was a danger to her life. And when we finally saw that woman, and she confirmed that she was her but left her, I thought all hope was lost.It felt like I disappointed him because he trusted me enough to leave her in my care and I allowed her to get kidnapped. I should have protected her, because he brought her here to keep her safe, and who would have thought that she’d be endangered because of my personal enemies?Only Klyde was bold enough to double-cross me that way. Not only did he mess with me, but he took Alyssa and even planned to kill her. I was going to m
Chapter 64Alyssa I opened my eyes slowly.Warm, comfortable, and safe.This was the best sleep I’ve had in days, my body felt calm and relaxed. For a moment, I didn’t move, I loved how relaxed and calm my body felt.But the sun shone on my face, burning my skin and forcing me to open my eyes. My eyes fluttered open and I yawned lazily looking around. It took me a second to actually place the dots. This doesn’t look so familiar to me. Where am I? I instantly sat up. This was Duncan’s room. How did I get here?The last thing I remembered was leaving in the same car with Ryan and Jessica. I remembered being worried about Duncan because I saw the look on his face when the officers spoke to him.I remembered the conversation I was having with Jessica. I wanted to talk to both of them and catch up on what had been happening while I was away. But I was too exhausted to talk for too long, my body
Chapter 63Alyssa Fortunately, Duncan heard me in time and dodged the attack, but the man wasn’t willing to give up. He stood up, growling furiously with his face full of anger and hatred. Duncan got injured in his arm and he was yet to shift, so I knew he wasn’t as powerful.And I was too weak to help him even though I really wanted to. All I could do was struggle to teach myself how to breathe again while hoping Duncan would win the fight.They charged towards each other again. The wolves’ attacks were very precise, aiming directly for his face and chest. He wanted to kill him instantly. Duncan figured out what he was doing and kept the distance. The fight continued for minutes, making me nervous about what the outcome was going to be. Then, while the wolf was down for a while after being struck by Duncan, he charged towards it again and punched his hand right through its chest.I sat there in sh
Chapter 27AlyssaI kept checking the time, and for some reason, today dragged on longer than it was supposed to.It felt like hours had passed, yet whenever I checked my phone, it was just a few minutes. I couldn’t wait for today to be over so I kept on check
Chapter 21Alyssa I woke up with my body hurting all over. I slowly opened my eyes, gently scanning the whole room with the bright lights almost blinding my eyes.The life machine beeped slowly, reminding me of where I was. The hospital.I tried coll
Chapter 19Alyssa The office felt too quiet. Everyone was gone by now, and I was very certain that the entire building was almost empty at this point.But for some reason, I had to remain here, stuck with work.Sometimes I find it very hard to understand the way Duncan thinks. How can you be mean
Chapter 18Duncan.Was she really leaving? I said the driver was going to take her home but I didn’t mean right now. At first, I wanted to leave her alone, but I still wanted to stare at her a little longer before leaving. “Alyssa,” I called out in a calm tone. She was already at the door.She tur
