Alpha Lugard's PovI look straight into her eyes and something about her wasn't right. She kept flinching and batting her eyes uncomfortably. And anyway, what is she doing here? Just then, the answer hit me, she's probably here with Roger. And why did he leave her at the bar, staring at the glass of water she had. "Where is he?" "Behind you." She replies then fakes a smile as though she's cozy with it. "Hey buddy, I almost thought you weren't coming." "Listen to me, Roger, I have told you this and I will say it again. We aren't friends and we will never be, is that clear with you? And, leave Lyanna alone." I spit out angrily and pulled Lyanna by the arm with me. "Where are we going?" She asks, and disregarding her question, I continue pulling her with me until we reach my private suite. "What's wrong with you, why are you doing this?" She questions angrily as her face scrunches together. "Why didn't you tell me

Alpha Lord Lugard's PovThere's a loud silence in the place, I fear but I don't show because if I do, Roger would find something suspicious. I tried all my possible best to get through Alfred's head but I couldn't. Sure, he is a human but isn't there a way to penetrate into his head?Alfred was still silent because he didn't want to offend me. Well, of course, first knew the consequences and knew it would be better if he kept mute and stared into Roger's face like a stupid person. "Alfred, I must not wait forever, it's late and both of us need to get home now, I guess you have plans tomorrow." Roger presses hard and Alfred parts his lips to speak. "I call him Shelton, or sometimes Alpha because he acts like one." Alfred reveals and I sigh, the heaviness in my chest suddenly disappearing.I smirk, look at Roger who looks like a fool in a circus. "There you have it, did you hear me tell him something? I know it, you are insane, and please, next time do not

Alpha Lugard PovSitting opposite me is Jude Clinmim, even before anyone would introduce him to me, I know who he is and I am so certain I am not mistaken. Well, except his facial features and body which has started to become wrinkled and his hair which is all gray now. Nonetheless, his vile smirk remains, meaning, he's still that bloody greed he was since day one. If only I knew there were these two people here, I would never have come here in the first place. I have changed, yeah, but I am not certain if this old man can't remember me. What if he does?Beside him is Roger, his son. Those two people kept looking in my eyes, searching for something I didn't know. I know this could only be orchestrated by Roger, he's trying all means to get under my skin. "So Mr. Shelton, that is the deal my company has for you. Our new oil company doesn't want to be your competitor or vice versa, we want to work together with you under one name." The smart young brunette offers kindly as she

Alpha Lugards's PovI did not have my usual dream of being haunted by nightmares. Still, I wake up to realize part of my bed damp with sweat maybe, I am not sure. Oh yeah, I close my eyes briefly as I think of what can be the course. Last night, I had a dream about Lyanna instead. She was here and was doing the unthinkable to my body, making me feel pleasure beyond measure.I don't think I will be able to go another day without having to feel her. And why am I even having this strong urge to have her here and to bury hardness alongside my nightmares inside of her?I sway to the shower and when the cold water runs down my body, I start to imagine having Lyanna kneel before me, taking me gently and roughly inside her mouth. I then grab her golden hair, pull it, and make sure she feels not pain but pleasure. And from there, I will force myself harder until she chokes on me with tears brimming in her eyes. When I am satisfied, she will hold either side of the tub with her behinds turn

Alpha Lord Lugard's PovWith no doubt, I understand why I could jerk off thinking about her. And all this strange feeling that sometimes wants to choke me, I have my answers.She is my mate. And why would the moon goddess choose to bind us together when she knows how much I hate her and her family? Is it to make things easier for me or to make things tougher? "Will you help me with the zipper or will you just stand and gape?" She interrupts my thoughts then I go stand behind her. I feel the pull so strong that instead of helping her with the zip. I halt and fantasize ripping the dress off her skin and taking her right here. "Drake, are you alright?" She questions without turning to face me. "Are you feeling what I am feeling, Lyanna," I ask and her body tenses, she does not flinch. All she manages is a nod.Yeah right, she's my mate. Shit no, I step back and keep walking back until I get to her bed where I sit down, feeling vulnerable and shocked and di
