Chapter 26 Tension raided the atmosphere as Marco stepped into the office sheltering Mr Verlice’s business functions. Gina was right beside him, face bent and all shaky, stoked on whatever Marco was planning to do with his father. “Mr Verlice, good afternoon.” Marco greeted, halting on his steps with his voice beckoning for Mr Verlice’s attention. From behind the desk where the middle aged man sat, his gaze twitched at the familiar heard of the voice, trailing off quickly for affirmation. His brows were quick to slant a line of disbelief, he rose to his feet, lips thinning into a straight tight line. “What are you doing here?” He questioned, his voice ringing out in pure fury. Marco appeared unfazed, looking straight into the man’s glaring eyes as he conjured his response, “To quest for your daughter’s hand in marriage?” He answered, quite calmly as he reached for Gina’s hand, wanting to intertwine their hands. To his surprise, Gina jerked away, pulling her hand far fro
Chapter 27Theo’s point of view The door to my room opened, and the feminine figure sashayed into the room, a competent smile carved about her lips. I whistled at her aura, a bit curious on what calls the mood. If I had to guess, I’d say it’s the fulfillment of our plan bypassing the surfacing hindrance. The sudden presence of her mate, her coming to knowledge about my secret relationship. The plan was too manipulate Lynnette against her acclaimed mate, to get her back on my side since she caught my affair with her sister. But she proved that to be impossible, and so I had to stamp out the plan B. She came to where I was, leaned over the edge of a desk. I was going through some useless files before her scent reeled through my smelling organ. Rayna got to me, her hand slamming over my muscled chest with her head tipping upward to match my gaze. “Today was such a crazy day I loved the way it ended.” She mentioned, hinting about her ripened thirst to get rid of her nemesis. She had
Chapter 28Lynnette’s point of view My system numbed to the pain, tears muddled above my cheeks. Lyra had claim she felt someone reaching out to us awhile ago but that could be her delusion. We’re damned, there’s no one coming to help us. The said presence she felt gave her the needed energy to clot the blood draining from the invented wound. Albeit the wolfsbane was out of our system, Lyra still complained about the effects still bothering her. She couldn’t heal me when she tried doing it. If it wasn’t for the imaginative presence she felt, she wouldn’t have acquired the energy to stop me from bleeding to death. Once the bleeding stopped, the torture lessened along. I struggled with the shackles straightening the injured leg. A sigh escaped my lips recalling to what obtained the physical pain. I stayed laid on the floor, pain searing from both the dislocated arm and a punched shoulder. Just a little more rest and Lyra would be in shape to heal. I glanced to my side, observing
Chapter 29Lynnette’s point of view He had me settled back in my room, positioned two of his men out the door to my room to watch over my safety and make sure none of those scoundrel sound their feet towards where I was.I couldn’t be any less grateful, I had give my appreciation to which he simply waved off before leaving me to freshen up. I spent more than two hours in the bathroom, under the show, letting the cold droplets soothe my skin, cool my brain, and for a brief period; take away my worries. I was done freshening up, cladding in a white colored robe before making my way over to the bed. My body slammed into the soft surface of my bed, welcoming my body like an expected guest and offering my muscles a taste of relaxation. I haven’t got the chance to talked with him and ask how he knew I was in trouble and inside that cell, or that I needed to be rescued. I refuse to believe my prayers indeed reached the Moon Goddess and she sent him to rescue me. The curiosity about tha
Chapter 30Lynnette’s point of view I remember falling asleep, under the watchful gaze of my mate. I felt him tucking me in, like I was his little baby born for his care. Now I witness myself standing in darkness, a lifeless void filled with darkness. My visions navigated the darkness, able to sight my surroundings. I drifted further into the lifeless space, the sound of my feet tapping against the watery air beneath the floor. Each step I took suck me deep into the void, as if I was getting detached from my body. The darkness grew deeper, suffocating me more than anything, my feet drowned getting pulled by the water bodies beneath my feet. I struggled, unable to scream out for help. My entire body sucked into the water and I fell from a closed sky landing on a different surface, still pitch black but the water was gone. I got up on my feet, looking around where I was to see a figure many feet away from me. It was feminine figure that looks so much like mine, her head was down
Chapter 31Marco’s point of view “No food for them until after every forty eight hours, give them a full dose of wolfsbane daily, ten whips daily. And I want this ongoing for as long as I will be away with you in charge of activities here. Do you understood?” My words relayed to him where he stood with his head bowed. “Yes Luna.” Delta Gideon confirmed, his head hung low in the same position. “Good. I’m going away for a few days, try to keep things in order during my absence.” With that stated in a cautioning tone, my back turned around marching towards his exits. “Yes Luna.” I heard his response from behind. I came out, meeting my assigned guard exactly at the spot where I left him, I gestured for him to follow touring our way back to my room where I wanted to go pack a few things. Arriving there, I got into packing. Taking few things and stuffing them neatly into a moderate sized traveling bag. I needed to phone them and inform them about my visit, but I’m the type who found
Chapter 32Marco’s point of view He did by his words, dropping me off at the city by my parent’s apartment. I had wanted him to do some greetings before wheeling away but changed my mind at the next second, and bade him bye instead. Two guards were standing behind me with one of them carrying my luggage. The day was already approaching noon, it took us at least more than three fours; if not four hours to get here. I marched straight through their front yard, arriving at their porch where I placed a gentle knock on the wooden door with modern furniture. As if they were expecting a visitor, the door flung open and my mother’s figure popped out into my vision, behind her stood my father with his arms folded. “You weren’t kidding!” My mother beamed before pulling me into a sensual embrace, which I gladly returned. I can’t remember the last time have seen them. Soon after she pulled away, she noticed the two husky males standing behind me. “Who are-““We’ll talk about them later,
Chapter 33Darius’s point of view The minute ticked to it last ringing to an hour, she’s been away from me now for the past three hours. Is she okay? Is everything alright? Is she fine with her parents? I could only assume positive answers to those questions. I was beyond bothered when I shouldn’t be. I fought the urge of establishing another psychic connection with her so I can communicate with her through it. That might be an intrusion and a cross to a boundary I don’t even know if existed between us. I tried it once, but that doesn’t count as an intrusion because she didn’t know and thanks to it; I became of knowledge to the trouble she’s held in. Two guards are with her, men who are well trained and prominently skilled. They’re excellent warriors that guarantees the safety of my mate, so I really shouldn’t be worried or bothered. I should focus instead on what I have at hand. But I just couldn’t help it, I want her with me, by my side, in my arms even. She had been the obje
