Liyah's POVI bit down hard on my bottom lip, my mind replaying the events that had occured in the past few hours. How could I have been so stupid? I wondered. I was so angry with myself that tears threatened to spill out of my eyes. I should have known. The urgency in that lady's tone when she had ordered me up to heal one of them. I should have known from the worry and anger on their faces when they watched the man who lay in the bed.If I had an inkling that he was my captor, only the Goddess knows I would not have laid a finger on him. My chest swelled as I thought about it. Would I really have had the courage to stand them to all those wolves? They would tear me into pieces before the words were out of my mouth.But the fact that he would have died would have been reason enough. At least we would both die and stop all this torture. That would have been far better. A tear dropped from my eye. I was tired, disgusted. What a shameless man. He kidna

Liyah's POV"Get up," I heard her say, pulling my arm up as she spoke. I hissed from the pain as I quickly scrambled to my feet to face the same beautiful woman from the other day. For a second I was tempted to ask her how the little boy was doing, but I knew that wouldn't go down well so I bit my tongue and trained my eyes at my feet as she observed me. I tried to remember if I had done anything I wasn't supposed to. My heart skipped a beat as I wondered if they had found out the Healer woman had been seeing me. I just hoped she wasn't in any sort of trouble."Can you cook?"My eyes shot up in surprise as I dared to look up at her scowling form to see if she was really talking to me. That was such a random and unexpected question."Well, uh...yes I can." I replied still a bit startled.She grabbed my arm almost immediately, already leading me to the door. "The person who cooks for the omegas is under the weather at the moment. So you are going to take over

Nikolai's POVI wasn't even sure what I was doing or why I was creeping around in my own house, but all I knew was that I was hungry. I shook my head as if to get rid of this ridiculous feeling but I could still hear my stomach rumble in disapproval, so I knew it wasn't helpful. Since the dining table issue I hadn't had anything to eat. And after my show of anger earlier, I would chop my own head off before I asked them for food.As I neared the kitchen, my stomach growled so loud I thought it would alert the rest of the pack. The mansion was so big that at the moment, no one was on this floor right now. Although I felt ridiculous tiptoeing in my own house, but I really could not help it. And I think what infuriated me the more was the fact that all I craved were those fucking samosas. I raked my fingers through my hair. This was all just so stupid. My stomach growled once more as if to silence me.Cursing silently, I made my way into the kitchen and

Liyah's POVIt felt like my face was about to explode. As I got to a small stream, I hurriedly splashed the cold water on my face. I couldn't believe I had seen what I just did. My hands shook in fear, I'm sure he had seen me. Of course, trust me to get into trouble with him. Again. I prayed that I had been mistaken and he really hadn't seen me. But I knew he had, I had felt the glare of those piercing silver eyes on me. His eye color made every stare seem harder, every glare more piercing. And yet it was beautiful. It had taken me a while to get used to them, and still I had a hard time looking him in the eyes.I groaned, slapping my forehead. I couldn't seem to take the image out of my head. The image of his muscular form, standing tall and nude in all his glory, his arousal huge and erect. My cheeks warmed in embarrassment as the image replayed over and over in my head. I had never seen a nude, good-looking man up close. And he was gorgeous. My cheeks flamed

Nikolai's POV I would have avoided this meeting if I could, but there was no helping it. It wasn't like humans would suspect anything because the pack members had been trained consistently and taught to control their appetite when they were around humans. The only remotely suspicious thing was the location of my mansion, away from people. But that was quite explanatory as I worked better in a serene environment.  But my problem was the other wolves in the vicinity. If they caught the scent of a human they would surely come running. For some reason, the day we had been surrounded by those rogue wolves after the hunt came to mind. I couldn't imagine something like that happening to my soon-to-be business partner. But this was an important client and I had nothing else to do but make sure of his safety. I needed this deal to go through as planned as
