Lahat ng Kabanata ng Fated Mate: Spoiled by My Ex’s Uncle.: Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

SEBASTIAN SALVATORE DE LUCA."You are becoming impossibly harder to reach these days," my good friend and business partner, Luke, said as he picked up his tumbler of whiskey, bringing it to his lips. His words were directed at me, though. "What has got you so occupied like this? Surely, it is not pack business, right?" He is also the son of the Alpha of a nearby pack, basically making him the future Alpha.But Luke, being well, Luke, is not that enthusiastic to take on the position. I think he is the only person I know who is not into the position of becoming an Alpha and would much rather waste his years away being carefree and nonchalant. He needs to grow up from that childish character really. He is twenty-six after all. He is not a kid anymore.He then added, "Because if it is, then I am afraid I truly am not cut out to become one after all.""As if you have a choice," I muttered, leaning back, having very little interest in being here. Not when my attention is somewhere, or much

LEILA MILLER. Heat pooled down there, and fuck do I feel like a wolf in heat. I leaned into his touch. "I guess you need to remind me." At this point, I know it was beyond the liquor in my system and was just me deep down craving this man and his touches, but every bit of thought I had earlier that made me question what we had was thrown out the window.Now all I can think of is him, in every single way.His lips brushed mine. "As much as I would love to..." He pulled back, giving me a pointed look, "...you're drunk. So, I am taking you home." And just like that, he pulled away from me, making me release a whimper, missing his touch already. As he stood in front of me, he reached out and took off his suit jacket, leaving only the button up underneath. Do you want to know what I was thinking of?I was thinking of tearing up that button up, and what his hot skin would feel like underneath my touch. I remember what it felt like, and I am craving to feel it again. If he would just take

LEILA MILLER."Call me when you get home, okay?" I said, as I watched Gracie get into the cab I had hailed for her—after she had vehemently refused to let any of Sebastian's friends take her home.She offered me a tight-lipped smile, her expression not giving anything away other than her feigned happiness, but I know Gracie well enough—she is just trying to get away from prying eyes before she could actually break down. And as much as I want to be there for her, I know she just wants her alone moment, so I let her be.She loved Rick a bit too much; she is undoubtedly heartbroken. Even I did not expect the night to end up like this, much less she, who was over the moon just a few hours ago. I watched as the car zoomed off to her destination, leaving me standing there, worried sick about her as I clung onto Sebastian's jacket around me as the night turned chilly. And then I felt his presence behind me, his hands going to rest on my shoulder. "She would be fine," he said, trying to eas

LEILA MILLER.Today, I decided to take my assistant, Kiara, and two others to the meeting. Initially, why I went to De Luca Corp is because we were yet to secure the deal; I needed to finalize it first before anything. And besides, with Sebastian, I could not be sure of anything. Now that we are beyond that, though, and are in the planning phase, of course I would need to bring my team over to discuss the details before we execute the work out.We arrived at the company just in time for the meeting, and Leon fetched us at the entrance—his smile welcoming as ever."Miss Reed, good morning." He greeted.I offered him a small smile. "Morning, Leon." I was not sure if this is the way they welcome their guests, really, with him coming down to welcome us personally and all when we are the ones working for them, not the other way around, but I did not complain."This way, please." He then led us to the elevators, and for a second, I got a flashback of what happened the last time I was stuck

LEILA MILLER.A giggle escaped my lips as Sebastian pulled away from the kiss, one of his arms still wrapped around me and the other resting on the side of my face. And then, he murmured against my lips. "I missed you so much, Malyshka." He said, his voice deep and husky.I grinned, unable to help myself. My arms were wrapped around his neck, but one rested on the side of his face, caressing his growing stubble before I found myself muttering. "We saw each other just yesterday," I said, as a matter of fact. "And how are you back so early? I thought you said it would take a few days?" I had already put it at the back of my mind that I would not see him until in the next few days, and as much as the thought had me disappointed, I still accepted it.Now though, having him here with me, I love it more than I would like to admit. It took everything in me not to scream and jump into his arms when I saw him walk in earlier. But, of course, work is work, and I did not want to cross that limit.
