Chapter Seventeen It was quick as all attention whirled to face Joan, regarding her statement deeming Mael a thief and instructing one of her staff to call the cops on him. “Excuse me, what are you talking about?” Mael could feel his anger rising, and his voice wasn’t hiding the fact neither his expression. He had been gentle enough with this lady, and she keeps trying to embarrass him. It’s only fair, he teaches her a lesson. “I said you’re a thief, and I’m going to proof it to everybody. Just wait till the cops get here. A little advice though, I will start running if I were you so I won’t end up in jail.” She expatiated on her false accusation, seeming more courageous and bold even. Rage marred widely on Mael’s face, watching as the lady spewed nothing but nonsense out of her gutter mouth. Fighting over the urge to reach over and slap some sense into her head. Mael picked up his phone, scrolling through his contacts and trying to decide who to call. Who is fit to teach this y
Chapter Eighteen Mael exited the salon afterwards, refusing to amuse more of the gathered audience. He still had a whole dinner to get ready for in such a short time. He went straight to a clothing store, picked out a nicely tailored black suit, sparkling and with a rich fabrics. He got few more jewelries, before leaving the mall to go dress up for his dinner with the Mayor. Just as Mael was walking out of the mall, a figure crossed his path. Blair to be precise, blocking his way from walking off. “Your mother saw me today, warned me to stop chasing you around or following you guys.” He snorted, curving a little smirk. “Now the tides seems to be changing with you Blair, what do you want with me?” Mael asked, folding the clothes packaging he had with him into his arms that crossed over his chest, eyes peering out into Blair’s timid gaze.“We need to talk.”“About what? I’m kind of in a hurry.” He denounced, glancing down at his phone’s screen to check the time. He was now late for
Chapter Nineteen The glare he leveled Kyle brought cold essential chills into his system, his lips hanged apart, unable to finish the sentence he was initially making. Mark glanced at Kyle, shocked at the silence jacking his voice. “Did you just threaten him?” He was genuinely stunned, not expecting Mael’s dominating aura to fold Kyle up so quickly. Kyle is known for his fervency, loud and aggressive, he’s a big bully. Loves fighting, and never slides off a dare. Mark wasn’t expecting him to keep shut after Mael threatened him, in fact he was expecting more than the opposite. Mark anticipated him to carry out the threat on Mael, to be the one punching not standing there looking like a fool. “The same goes for you. Keep. My. Name. Out. Your. Stinky. Mouth.” He laid the warning, purposely pausing between words to emphasize his point. “Else you’re gonna lose some teeth.” He added with a shrug, shifting his gaze back on the elevator. “He’s not worth it bro. Fucking a rich woman and l
Chapter Twenty.“Mael you need to sit down and stay out of the conversation, this is between me and this uncultured thing of a waiter. How dare him disrespect you, talking to you in such manner. I’m not going to let him get away with it.” She huffed loudly, throwing her gaze off Mael as she resumed criticizing the waiter. “Marlys!” Mayor called in a scolding tone, absolutely irked by his daughter’s outburst on something so casual. “Stop this act of nuisance!” He cautioned strictly, eyeing her with a cold glare that had her crossing her arms in surrender, leeching off the waiter finally. “Apologies on her behalf for her being uncouth, it’s unlike her and I had no idea what got into her to behave like that today.” The Mayor set his sight back on Mael, who doesn’t look anything warm or friendly. “Unlike her to harass an innocent man? Just because he’s beneath her?” He raised his brows, masking a look of disbelief. “No no my dear, I wasn’t harassing him, I was correcting him. He was s
Chapter Twenty OneMael left the restaurant straight for his primary residence at the hotel, he’s yet to find a suitable home after moving out of the Norville’s mansion. Speaking of the Norville’s, Blair defended him back at the salon when he expected her to side alongside those calling him a thief, and other derogatory terms. He had thoughts that she did it because she found out things were switching up for him, he wasn’t a waiter back at a local restaurant, or a server in a night club, or a staff to all the odd jobs he took to satisfy her and her family. “Welcome back, Mr Mael.” The staff at the receptionist greeted with her head bowed the moment she sighted Mael walking near the elevator. Mark glanced at her, flashing her a light smile as well as waving her a palm. Mael got to the elevator, inputting the floor of the building where his room was located. However, before the elevator’s door could dinged closed, two strange men dressed in a mysterious black with dark shaded sungla
Chapter Twenty Two. Mael stiffened in his own reaction, grasping a hold of what just happened. Two men he has never seen in his life; because he has back his memory now, and both are with a face he has never encountered until now. They’ve left, marking their presence not to be forgotten and to be constantly remembered. Not only was Mael chilled to his guts by their threat, they literally showed him how potent they are against him. Mael stood still conflicted on what his next move should be when his phone started ringing, jerking him out of his thoughts. He brought the phone to his attention, looking at the screen to see his caller was The Mayor. Recalling how his dinner went with him, he couldn’t help groaning out a sigh. He answered the call, moving the phone closer to his left ear. “Hello Mael,” The Mayor’s voice greeted his ear. “Evening Mayor. I’m sorry for cutting the night short between us, it was never in my intention to do such. I just got heavily irritated by your dau
Chapter Twenty ThreeThe Next Morning. Mael and Victoria mapped out their plan overnight. Mael was go straight for his meet up with Joe early in the morning, and Victoria told him about her plan to find out what she could about the new threats bothering their safety. She told him of the security cameras involved for situations like this around her house, and how she would go through the recordings to capture their identities, then pass it over to a friend of hers at the organization to track them down and their background. Both bade each other goodbye as they got into their respective rides taking them to their planned destination. Joe was expected to be at the organization early this morning preparing for his general meeting with the committee. Mael was going to meet him there. Victoria already set a guy up at the entrance waiting for Mael to help him move unnoticed till they got to Joe’s office. Many minutes later Mael’s car arrived at the remote area where the organization is
Chapter Twenty FourMael scouted around the organization till it was time for the council members meeting, which all respected committees are expected to meet and discuss possible growth of the organization. Mael knew where the discussion is usually held and conducted, at the conference hall right at the building’s west wing. It was the perfect event to take down Joe since he had politely request him to step down and he refused, now he’s bound for whatever coming for him next. Mael waited for some minutes deep into the meeting before pushing the door open, gracing the crowd with his presence. Gazes flew off balance, landing on him with gasps immediately following the silence that dominated after his appearance. Joe from where he sat at the middle fumed instantly, bared at Mael’s presence. He looked over at the two guards standing above him, giving them the signal to go throw Mael out. They nodded instantly, walking towards Mael to carry out the instruction. “I can assure you a b

Chapter Fifty SixMael clasped his palm, the sound of his single clap plummeting the silence that swept the room right after Joe’s indirect confession. He had confessed to knowing about Mael’s survivor, and was even informed of his life following the aftermath of the tragic incident. Now he won’t be able to defend himself, there’s nothing he can say to his favor.“Did you just confessed to knowing about my whereabouts?” Mael voiced, his brows drawn close in false disbelief. “You even kept tabs.” Mael added in a chuckle. “Else, how would you know about my greedy good for nothing family? And that is just so right, they’re indeed greedy and good for nothing,” he nodded, in accordance to his words. “I’d work tirelessly to satisfy their never ending demands, yet it wasn’t enough.” Mael sighed, blowing out an heavy breath. “But that’s not the topic, the actual topic is you standing guilty of my accusations. You can’t plead your innocence so instead, focus on telling us why exactly you d
Chapter Fifty FiveWith a glass cup of whiskey in his right hand. He kept his gaze fixed on her. She snaked her arms to the pole sluttishly, her waist moving in a sensual manner. With the fact that her face is covered, her body still aroused Logan and others immensely.."Sapphire.” The male seated on a cushion, with eyes fixed on the girl called out to his personal bodyguard."Yes my Lord,” The husky looking female answered in her deep manly voice. Doesn’t look like her a female at all."Call me Kingsley.” He ordered still feasting his eyes all over her..her lips were parted making him more and more absorbed in her appearance. The female guard went away to carry out his boss’s order.Her shape is one of a kind to him, and her eyes...he's never seen anyone with a pair of red eyes before, and looking this dazing. "L... Lord Logan?" Kingsley bowed in respect, standing feet away from the man. He took a sip from his glass cup before standing up. He watched her for a while before diverting
Chapter Fifty Four I woke up to a bright and translucent light, that kept trying l to tell me the time. Sitting upright on the bed I yawned loudly and tried to clear my eyes.My eyes were clear and I didn't know what and what was not clear.This wasn't my house. This wasn't my bed and my room.What's was going on here...?Trying to look around I spotted him coming closer with a clear smile.The curtains were clothed white but it somehow looked purely transparent. The whole walls of the house were white as well as the bed.. The house wasn't for the poor and dirty ones, but somehow the owner was good at keeping it.“Gud morning..” he greeted broadly. It was him the guy from last night. The guy who helped me away from Dylan, the guy who saved me from drowning or commuting suicide. ”Argh, what’s going on here? What happened after I got away from Dylan , last night..?” I decided to ask and he gave me the what do you mean look. “I mean what happened between us last night..?” I aske
Chapter Fifty Three Dragging down the metal door, she grabbed the loaf of bread she had placed neatly beside her on the floor up, tearing the nylon open she began treating the wailing worms in her stomach with the food. She exhaled in full relaxation as she chewed in the loaf, she was just having her breakfast, all three course meal in one, the happiness that comes with it for her knows no bound. Walking under the dark sky with the street light litting up her street, her gazed was fixed on the stars blooming down the earth. The thought to make a wish crossed her mind and perhaps it would be granted if the stars were friendly enough to do it.Jabbing another piece of loaf and stuffing it directly in her mouth, she closed her eyes with her face held up the sky, opening her lips the words seeped out silently as a wish, reopening them she sighed deeply and continue her journey back home. She had wished for a better life, her family’s redemption towards her, she wished for everything b

Chaper Fifty OneKory senses twitched to what she heard. “This has got to be a dream!” Kory kept repeating that same word countless time in her head.She can't believe that any of this is actually reality. How can she? Everything is unfolding so quickly, her brain can't process it. ‘What the fuck does he mean by get on the bed? Where is the sweet, kind and considerate Thane she knew moments back? Where is that personality? What happened to him?!’ Those questions ran through Kory’s mind.Kory's back eventually met with the wall. She kept staring at him with fear evident on her face while looking for the man she met in the club. Now, she's blaming herself for leaving the room. She only wanted to go grab a can of water when she inhaled his scent and Lorraine's. Her imaginations began to run wild, making her think of so many obscene thoughts. She couldn't stop herself from thinking they might both be in the middle of having an intercourse. Thus, she tracked them down, only to find the
Chapter FiftyI took my seat right beside the triplets, masking my confusion with my eyes trailing back to my mother on the platform with her new husband. “Hey you, good afternoon.” I turned the voice greeting me, it was Vladiel. The one who supposedly hates communication is starting one with me. He sounded nothing like the one I left sitting in my room, quite the opposite actually. I faked a friendly smile, masking a sweet face. “How are you? How was the city? Or studying?” I quizzed, with feigned enthusiasm. “Ah!” He exclaimed, followed by a boisterous laughter, confusing me on what was funny about my questions. “I’m sorry, just that I thought you weren’t going to be this nice when I greeted you. So it was kind of like a slam on my assumption when you actually played nice. Well I can’t say much about the city, it’s exhausting as well as exotic. Studying there is just a hectic plus, all in all, the city is great and pretty cool place to be. While me and my brothers are still here
CHAPTER Forty Nine“Oh, did I forget to mention that?” Thane responded cheekily to an astonished Kory. Kory's jaw dropped absent-mindedly in disbelief. He forgot to tell her. Kory couldn’t helped but think Thane is one of the Alphas that has no emotions or whatever, but then he was nice and sweet to her when they met.What sort of lame excuse is that? Kory bite her inner cheeks slowly. She's beginning to blame herself for not getting to know him thoroughly before concluding to stay at his place. Yes, his mansion is the most glamorous thing she's ever seen In her entire life, yet, she can't help but get more and more suspicious of him. Her wolf isn't in agreement with her, though. Her wolf keeps insisting how lucky they are for the moon goddess to fate them with such a kind-hearted mate. Kory waved that thought aside. Her eyes wandered off to Lorraine, who's still glaring at her. She doesn't feel comfortable about this anymore. Who is Lorraine to Thane, anyway?Kory is also uncerta
