OLIVIA’S P.O.V“Sir, I finished with all of the arrangements for tomorrow’s meeting. The boardroom is set up. I have double-checked your presentation making sure that it is error-free. I checked the set-up as well” I reported back to him at 5 pm. “Okay, you can have a seat and wait until I finish with this email and then we will leave,” he said. “Yes, Sir” I addressed him and took a seat. “You wouldn’t even ask if there is anything else that I have for you to do, would you? Because you are one extremely lazy person…that explains all the fat which gather around or waist” he insulted me again like he has been doing the whole week since Belinda left, I literally felt my heart drop. Looking down at my waist I honestly didn’t see anything wrong, I don’t think that it could possibly get any smaller and I was proud of my hourglass shape, yet I still felt horrible. I guess it’s not that fact th

OLIVIA’S P.O.VIt was 10 pm and I still haven’t fallen asleep as yet. I tossed and turned, counted the sheep and stars yet I still couldn’t get a blink of sleep. And just like the devil whispers all the naughty ideas in your head, a very naughty idea popped into mine.Getting out from my warm and comfortable bed, slipped on my bedroom shoes and shivered all the way to my closet. Putting on a warm nightgown, I grabbed my phone, turning on the phone torch, I exited my room.Going down the hallway, I stopped at Austin’s room. “Austin?” I knocked on his door, calling out to him. “Mmmm, what?” he groaned, his voice sleepy yet sexy. “I’m thirsty,” I said. “Then go down and get some water from the kitchen” he groaned. “Okay,” I said. That’s checks two of my boxes! The first box confirms that Austin is in his room. The second box, telling me that he is too tired to worry abou

OLIVIA’S P.O.V“How did you sleep last night?” Austin asked as I made my way down for breakfast. “Fine and you” I was stunned by his question, he doesn’t normally try to make small talk in the morning, like Keith mentioned earlier, Austin isn’t really a morning person. “You still look tired, are you sure that you got enough sleep?” he asked, the smirk on his face told me that these questions were only a game for him, he already knew the truth. “Yes I slept well, thank you,” I said. “That’s good to hear. It’s Saturday today, what do you plan on doing?” he asked. “I don’t know, I haven’t really thought about it as yet,” I said. “Why don’t you explore the town, I think that you would really like it since you like exploring, but take a guard with you and make sure that you have your tracker in the whole time,” he said, hinting once again that he knew

OLIVIA’S P.O.VYesterday was nice, last night was eventful. I laid in bed this Sunday morning, I didn’t care if I missed breakfast, it was already 10 am and it was only 3 more hours till lunch. I didn’t plan to wake up this late, but since I haven’t got any peaceful sleep since the night that I went to explore the North wing, I didn’t blame myself for sleeping in. It was the same reoccurring nightmare everything…the symbol, the song, Austin and my mother! It was weird yet I had no explanation for it.But if Austin, Keith and Jake forbid me from going to the North Wing, then there is oblivious something there which they are hiding. This might also mean that the rumors are true or at least, partially true. Hold on, I don’t think so, Austin is kind of mean at times but I really can’t picture any of them murdering a person. They don’t look like killers at all…unless…what if I really did see a ghost the ot

OLIVIA’S P.O.VI can’t help it, I can’t stop myself from falling deeper and deeper in love with him. It was a quiet day at the office. Austin was busy in a meeting from the morning and I was busy thinking about yesterday. It was truly a fairy tale, riding into the sunset with him. I’ve never been so close to him before and I really didn’t know that horse riding with him would awaken so many feelings in me. I loved, but I’ve never loved like this. I never thought that I would love someone so deeply and as much as this unrequited love is bringing me happiness, it feels so scary at the same time. To love someone so much that it feels like you are losing yourself, I tried to fight it, I didn’t want this, I didn’t want to fall for him so deeply but here I am, with my world revolving around his. I normally used to wake up at 6, now I wake up at 5, why? Because I started to jog! To look good for him? Nope, I already look good and I kno

AUSTIN’S P.O.V “Dad, you need to realize that I am not a child anymore, I am an independent grown-up man and I have found my mate so I think that it is only fair if I make my own decisions in regards to that” I spoke with authority in my voice. “Son, I will consider you as an adult when you start making rational decisions. You are so happy that you finally found your mate, don’t you realize that you have to reject her! You aren’t just a normal werewolf, you are an Alpha! You aren’t just an alpha you are The Alpha King! Keep that in mind when choosing a new mate, someone who is a werewolf too and not some weak, fragile human! You need a Luna who can rule side-by-side with you and lead this pack! That disgusting human cannot be the Luna of ‘The Stermyer’ pack, at any cost! I will not allow it!” he banged his fist on the table at the thought, but I didn’t flinch, instead, I smirked, challenging him, fuelling him with anger. “I’m afraid that you don’t have a say

OLIVIA’S P.O.VI spent the entire day in my room, more specifically in bed. My bin was filled with the two boxes of tissues that I used up. Just when I give myself courage and tell myself that I don’t need him, another wave of sadness washes over me and I reach for my tissues. No one dared to disturb me today, which made me wonder…are they giving me peace because they know that I am in pain or are they leaving me alone because they don’t even care to begin with.I would like to think that they aren’t all like that, but after all, they are all Hunter’s, they share the same blood, they sat at the dinner table and watched as my heart was being shredded into pieces. No one stood up for me! No one came after me! No one brought me food! No one offered me comfort! Because no one cares!!! Well none of them at least. All I am to them is a business deal, they don’t even see me as a person with emotions.My father should never fin

OLIVIA’S P.O.VIt’s not that I didn’t believe Austin, I knew that he was immature enough to not lie about something like that to me. However, I needed to hear it from someone else, it is not something to easily believe especially if you were now going through the five stages of grief and I was in denial.“Hey Dawn” I greeted as my best friend answered the phone. “Olivia? Oh my word, girl, how are you?” she asked in her New York accent which I missed so much. “I am not doing so well actually, I just heard that something really bad happened to my father, is it true?” I asked and held my breath as I waited for her answer. “You just heard? But Olivia, it happened weeks ago. Your father…well…honey, I’m so sorry but your father is no more” she said and my eyes filled up with tears once again. “I didn’t even know, Dawn” I cried. “I wondered why you weren’t at th

OLIVIA’S P.O.V Austin and I lived in peace for the past three days. We greeted each other, exchanged small talk and ate at the same dinner table. There was no arguing or insulting but neither was there any romance. I encouraged myself to be stronger and looked somewhere else for love but if I am unfortunate and I don’t find it then I promised myself that I would live my entire life being content with loving myself. I thought that Austin and I reached a silent agreement but this morning he decided to prove me wrong… “Morning” I greeted like I normally did as I walked in for breakfast. “Good morning, you aren’t dressed as yet” Austin said, making me stop in my tracks and give him a very confusing look. “I’m done, see you at the office,” Keith said to Austin, giving me a warm morning smile he left the dining table. “Yes me too” Jake followed him. It was really odd because looking at their plates they weren’t even nearly finished with their breakfast, it was almost like

OLIVIA’S P.O.VIt was a quiet drive back to Stermyertina and I drifted into my thoughts. ‘I know that the Hunter family is rich and famous for all the bad and good things that they do around the world, but the people in this town literally worship them. This guy mentioned that they are the law around here, it’s almost as if they own the place. I wonder if they do? Do they own Sterymer? Do they literally own the town and it’s not just a town that they were brought up in? Apart from that, they have gained so much of respect from the people in this town that it actually became a point of fear. This guy undoubtedly fears Austin Hunter! But why? I live with Austin and got to know him enough to know that he is not that dangerous, well maybe he is a Mafia boss but I still believe that the talk about him being responsible for so many deaths is just a rumor. I honestly can’t imagine him killing someone, in fact, I can’t even imagine him hurting some
