Lia: “You are just going to partner with me?” Ezra asked, raising an eyebrow at me. “The last thing I want is to partner with a manipulative man for a husband, but at this point, I will do what it takes to save the thing that I have spent years working on. If partnering with you guarantees it, then I will go all the way for that.” I said, looking the man dead in the eye. The man didn’t know how much I struggled to ensure that I didn’t lose this, especially since I had to found it from nothing. Therefore, I wasn’t going to give it up for his, or anyone’s sake, if anything, I was going to fight my life for it. “Interesting what you would do for something that you believe you worked hard for.” He said, and I laughed, shaking my head at the Alpha who thought that I wasn’t being serious about what I was saying. Being as quiet as I was, choosing to follow his path, made him forget that not only was I an Alpha’s daughter, but the man dying meant that I was an Alpha. It was something that I

Lia:“The two of us are invited to a club’s opening today.” Ezra said, and I nodded. “We need to be there as a couple, and there would be a few things that I would need to finish there as well.”“Sure, when do you want us to leave so I know when to start getting ready?” I asked, shaking my head in question. I was getting ready to go out and run a few errands with Madeline before starting on the new designs that Lady Briana chose after accepting the compensation and apology. The fact that her husband didn’t say anything about it was a miracle, but seeing as she knew my work, and the quality that I often gave her. She knew that if anything like this had happened, then it was beyond my control, and thankfully, that kept her husband quiet. “We would be leaving the house at around nine or nine-thirty. The club opens at eleven for the public, but the VVIP lounge would be open for us. There would be mafia men and their wives, and I do suggest that we tone down the attitude with the women w

Lia: “Ezra, Lia, I am surprised to see that the two of you are here.” Killian said, approaching the two of us. Armando was somewhere, walking around the club, getting a drink. The man arrived a while after he brought his girlfriend, who was now his date. Ezra suspects that she might be his mate, but the man is yet to inform him, officially, as his Alpha about anything. Ezra, who was sitting beside me, got up from his chair and extended a hand to the Lycan, shaking it. “I believe that you of all people should be aware of my support for Mikhail.” Ezra answered, raising an eyebrow at Killian. “The main question is why are YOU here? I believe that you are a rival?” “Yes, I was a rival to Mikhail’s father, but that does not mean that I have to be toward his son. You know, a family rival can end somewhere, and I choose for it to end with his father.” Killian said, looking at Mikhail who frowned at the sight of the Lycan. Ezra put his hand on his chest, pushing him back. “The man is pr

Lia: I sighed as I cleaned Ezra’s cuts as he sat on the edge of the bed. The two of us had to literally sneak into the house to ensure that his mum didn’t see us in fear that she would go bonkers about his bruises and cuts. Daniel, despite being human, managed to cut Ezra’s cheek, and running the cloth with alcohol on it on the cut, Ezra flinched. “I’m sorry, I’m almost done, okay?” I asked, and he nodded, allowing me to get to work. I slowly wiped the cuts for him, careful to clean any excess blood from the cuts before throwing the cloth away and applying medicine on it. Ezra stayed still, allowing me to work as he closed his eyes, avoiding looking at me. I set the ointment away and walked to the bathroom to wash my hands, not bothering to say a word as I allowed Ezra’s words from earlier to sink in my head. The way he spoke to me, his genuine question, and his eyes meeting mine, all that made my heart swell, and the thing was, I didn’t know whether or not he was being serious

Lia:I sat on the edge of the bed as Ezra’s question played in my head.The way he looked at me, his anger, his pain, his racing heart as he tried to form a full sentence. Everything made my chest clench as I hated the fact that I knew that I had hurt him. Him catching feelings for me, if that were truly the case, was never something that I dared to think putting in account.He walked into the bedroom, not bothering to knock on the door, probably already knowing that I was not moving around, meaning that I wasn’t indecent. And even if I wasn’t wearing any clothes, the man didn’t necessarily need to worry about it, he knew that he saw me bare. Him knocking on the door was him simply respecting me to do it.He took a deep breath when he saw me getting up, and reading his expression, I chose not to ask any questions about it. The man had more to deal with than he could handle, and leaving it at that, I knew not to pressure him about it. Instead, I walked toward him and wrapped my arms ar
