He have a good connection with all alpha groups I known he will found. I was nervous that What kind of reaction valintina will give me when he will present me as his mate. I don't known what should I do? how I will manage everything.
I was never but what should I do? I'm nervous or anxious when I'm about to do something big, and so these emotions have become markers for me to find my bravery, to go forwards, to tell myself that I am worthy of success and that by doing so I can bring goodness to others.
I'd be more concerned if I'm was not anxious or nervous, because there is all the difference in the world between brave and foolhardy. I am brave, so I have these feelings. It's good. It makes me more reliable and solid I'm the one who always stand like a rock in the strom.
Valintina always betray me, she always plans negative things behind me. I Known it will be a tuff for me to handle her again.
I was expecting worse reaction from her, she is the only one who have negative personality.
I have no idea that how I will tackle her.
I was sitting over the bed, looking every corner of the room. He locked me in the tower room like I'm a princess.
ARCHARD ( POV )
I was holding the paper and walked down stairs, He clenched his fists and breathed heavily, his face red with rage.He went to his room. He was so angry that he threw his phone across the room, smashing it against the wall, his anger spiked as he heard his word's again, the word's were repeating in his mind which was boiling his anger. He trembled with rage and burned with resentment. He smoldered with a silent fury that made everyone around him uneasy. He mastered his anger and kept his voice calm, but his eyes were cold and hard.
" HOW SHE CAN ORDER ME? I WILL NKT FOUND HIS MATE. FUCK OFF. I DON'T KNOWN WHAT SHE IS EXPECTING FROM ME."
I don't known Aisling who I'm ? and what she is wrote on the paper is pethatic. She is demanding more than I expected.
She is demanding for my business, car and house? she wants his mate back. Am I fool? how can she demands me.
I throws the contract on the floor. How dare you? How dare you do this to me?
I was thinking that may be I should have to talk to her once again. I can't accept all of these demands.
I went back to his room, I knocked the room and opened the door. She was sitting over the bed. she sat on the edge of the bed, clutching a pillow to her chest. Tears streamed down her face as she sobbed uncontrollably. She felt like her world had collapsed. She had lost everything. Her money, her reputation, her pride, her love, her family, her everything and now she is forced for contract marriage. All because of Archard. He had betrayed her.
He had ruined her life. She hated him. She hated him more than anything. But she also loved him. She loved him more than anything. And that was the worst part. She couldn't stop loving him, even after what he had done to her. She couldn't stop thinking about him, even after what she had done to him. She was trapped in a cycle of pain and regret. She wished she could go back in time and change everything. She wished she could undo the contract conditions, the lies, the threats. She wished she could tell him the truth, the whole truth. That she loved him. That she always loved him. But it was.
I looked to her; " HAYYE NEED SOME KIND OF CHANGES IN IT."
" I WILL NEVER EVER CHANGE IT OUT."
" YOU HAVE TO CHANGE IT. I CANT ACCEPT YOUR CONDITION. I WILL NEVER SIGN IT. "
" YOU HAVE TOO.. "
" PLEASE I CAN'T DO IT. I CAN'T FIND YOUR MATE. "
" OKAY THAN I WILL REMOVE TWO CONDITIONS. I WILL NOT TAKE YOUR PROPERTY BUT YOU HAVE TO FIND MY MATE AZALAIC AT ANY COST. "
" WHAT THE FUCK YOU ARE THINKING? "
" I'M SAYING WHAT I BELIEVE ON IT. "
" IF THIS IS YOUR WISH THAN YOU WILL PAY FOR IT. "
" WHAT? '
" I WILL ADD ONE MORE CONDITION THAT YOU WILL BE IN THIS MARRIAGE FOR TWO YEARS AND IF AZALAIC WILL COME IN THIS PERIOD YOU WILL NEVER LEAVE ME."
" YOU THINK I WILL AGREE ON YOUR FOOLISH THINGS?"
" YOU HAVE TO AGREE. YOU DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER OPTION. "
I looked towards her and said;" " THIS CONTRACT AGREEMENT IS YOUR DEATH NOTE. "
I walked out and immediately called to lawyer for the preparation of contract. He said that he will send it in morning time.
I went to the living room and sat over the couch, my mind was constantly repeating her word's, her rules and everything which she written on the contract.
I can't touch her, I can't be physical with her, I will found her lost mate? what kind of shit is it? I can't even think about it.
she is way too clever than I expected. she trap me in her words and I stupid agreed on her condition. How can I do it? what happened to me? why she is getting dominate on me? I have no idea that what is happening but I knew one thing I have to figure out something.
Archard is lying in bed, trying to fall asleep, but his mind is racing with thoughts of Aisling. He's replaying their recent conversations in his head and trying to figure out what he can do to make her happy without sacrificing his own needs. He's feeling angry and resentful about her demands, but at the same time, he doesn't want to lose her. He's torn between his attention and care for her and his frustration with the situation. It's a difficult and complex emotional state to be in, and it's understandable that he's having trouble sleeping.
NEXT DAY:
I waked up from stress full sleep, one thing straight came to my that I have to sign the contract. I waked up and saw myself on the couch. My body was not cooporating with me. My body was stiffed and fatigued.
I took myself and immediately called to lawyer.
" HELLO JOHN WHERE ARE YOU ? IS CONTRACT IS PREPARED?"
" YES BOSS I'M ON MY WAY."
" OKAY I'M WAITING."
I hang-up the call and went to my room. Alden asleep me about breakfast. I ordered her to prepare breakfast for Aisling. I knew. she is a hangry since from yesterday.
I went to my room and gets immediately fresh up. I was thinking that I must have to think twice but things never worked according to me. I have to tackle Valentina today. she will definitely tried hard to meet with Aisling but I want there meeting on the mating ceremony.
I walked downstairs and went straight to drawing where John was already waiting for me. He greet with me and handover the contract.
" BOSS I PREPARED IT ACCORDING TO YOUR WISH. I ADDED THE CONDITIONS AND EVERYTHING WHICH YOU SAID. THE CONTRACT TIME PERIOD IS TWO YEARS AND IF SOMEONE TRIED TO BREAK IT THAN YOU CAN EASILY TAKE A LEGAL ACTION IN ALPHA COURT."
" THAT'S GREAT!"
I loudly called to adel to take asiling in the drawing room. I was waiting for her.
The contract agreement was in my hand and I was constantly checking it out. There was seven condition in it.
" We can't be intimate with each other in these two years.
" This marriage is fake not real but we will pretend it to be real.
" We both can't leave in this period of time.
" I will find her missing mate azalaic in behalf of this contract.
" I will pay her 5 million dollars in the end of this contract.
" if anyone tried to break this contract so we both gets penalty in the alpha court.
" Nobody will expose this contract in Front of anyone."
I was reading it further and than she walked downstairs. I heard her voice and said; here is she! "
John asked me: " BOSS WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS I THINK VALENTINA IS A PERFECT MATCH FOR YOU. YOU HAVE TO CONCERNED HER AS YOUR MATE NOT A FAKE MATE WHO IS ALREADY WEAK ENOUGH. SHE IS AN OMEGA. "
I looked forward to him with her, my expressions turn into angry wolf. He became silent and said:
" THIS IS NON OF YOUR BUSINESS. "
After few minutes she entered in the room and looked towards me. I think she was tried. She was not looking good enough may be it is because of last night. I don't have enough time to think about her stress.
I looked to her and she make eye contact with me. She was angry but hopeless. She have to accept my offer otherwise she will lose everything.
I sat in front of me and I handover the contract agreement. She looked inside and read some of clause of it.
She said:
" GIVE ME PAIN."
I handover the pen which ink was make by unicorn blood. It is not an ordinary contract it is a promiseble contract with a strong swear. If someone tried to break it he have to pay with giving his all time powers.
I gave her pen and ink. She gaze over it :
" YOU ARE CLEVER THAN I EXPECTED."
I knew about the swear contract. She was already aware about it. she signed the contract and handover me, her hands were shivering.
She was nervous. she stood in the middle of the crowded room, her eyes darting nervously from person to person. Her hands were clasped tightly together, and her shoulders were tense with anxiety. Despite the noise and bustle around her, she felt completely alone and exposed, as if everyone in the room was staring at her. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down, but her heart was racing and her palms were slick with sweat. She knew that she needed to pull herself together and face whatever was coming, but the fear was overwhelming.
She was struggling to connect with her emotion. She already signed the contract and now there is nothing she can do. I already trapped her.
She ran as fast as she could, but it was no use. I have anticipated her every move and blocked her escape routes. He was faster, stronger, and smarter than her. I cornered her in an alley, my eyes gleaming with malice. She backed away until she felt the cold brick wall behind her. She had nowhere to go. I advanced towards her, a wicked smile on his lips. I reached out his hand to grab her, but she slapped it away. She tried to scream, but I have covered her mouth with his other hand. I leaned in close to her ear and whispered, “You’re mine now. You have no choice. Now contract is already written and you signed in it. Don’t struggle, my dear. You’ll only make it worse for yourself."
" Let me go, you monster! You have no right to do this to me! I don't want any contract with you. I known you trapped me in your words. You signed a swear contract why you done it. "
" I told you already that I can do anything which I wanted. "
" you monster I tried to help you. "
" Oh, but I do. You see, you owe me a debt. A debt that can only be paid with your blood."
" What debt? I don’t owe you anything! "
Archard: Don’t play dumb with me. You know very well what you did. You stole from me. You stole the most precious thing in the world to me. My respect and a fear which I always tried to see in eye's of every Alpha. AISLING now you will feel fear because of this contract. You can't undo it. You slap me over my face and now see what I will do with you. I will take my revenge from your blood. "
" That’s a lie! I never stole your fear I don't afraid from anyone who you already! You never had one to begin with me. You always scared me, you use me for your advantage. You don't want to marry me that's why you are doing it. "
" How dare you! You insolent little wretch! You think you can spurn my love and get away with it? You think you can reject me and choose that pathetic excuse for a man over me? You said I will found that pathetic mate who leave you? you think I'm fool enough ? "
" He’s not pathetic! He’s brave and kind and noble! He’s everything you’re not! I loved him he was my full time mate and you are just a pathetic like a nothing I'm saying to you. You never going to change yourself for anyone insist Valentina also don't deserve you. Nobody deserve a mate like you. "
" You think I care about her? you think I'm interested in her. "
" Yes I'm sure that's why you are signed a contract with me. Actually you are playing both of us. You are trying to hurt her and you are trying to take revenge from me. You don't have right to play with me. "
" Hahahaha you think I care about you? you think I care about. your emotions. you are fucking idiots. Enough! I won’t listen to your lies anymore! You belong to me now there is contract I can't touch you but I can kept you with me , Aisling. And I’ll make sure you never forget it."
" You'll never get away with this, Archard. Someone will find us. Someone will save me. You will find
" Save you? Who will save you? Your precious lover who is already missing? Don't make me laugh. He's too weak to protect you. He's too weak to even protect himself. He is missing since from six months and you are here in front of me without him. "
" You're wrong. He's stronger than you think. He'll come for me. He'll stop you. If you will give me red letter than I could find a clue. Please show some Mercy. I have no other option."
" I like your mercy, you really think he could Stop me? How? With his magic? His sword? His words? He has nothing that can harm me. I'm invincible, Aisling. And you're helpless. He doesn't have anything now. You have to read the contract again to see what is actually happening between you and me. You have to understand that now you are bond with me for two years.
" No, you're not invincible. You're vulnerable. You have a weakness. And I know what it is."
" What are you talking about?
Aisling said: I'm talking about this. She bites his hand and frees herself from his grip. She grabs a broken bottle from the ground and stabs him in the chest.
Archard: Aaargh! You...you bitch! How dare you!
Aisling: I dare because I have something you don't. Something that makes me stronger than you. Something that gives me hope.
Archard: What...what is it?
" Love and there is always of azalaic who will give me powers."
I leave her and walked out from the house. I was not expecting such kind of things from her. I don't know what is happening may be it is increasing my expectations. I am attracted towards her but she is bonded with me. She is already in love with me.
I went closer to my car. My lawyer John was already waiting for me. He said;
" Boss if you give me permission than I will go to office. There is a lot of works to do."
" Yes you can go! I don't have any problem."
I went out from the farm house, I was driving car towards Valentina's house. I have to clam down her so she will never plan anything wrong for Aisling.
VALENTINA ( POV )
I don't known where I'm standing but there is something strange happening with me. I can see that I have nothing to think. I have nothing to see myself. I always failed to impress my mate but this time I will try hard to get her back.
Valentina had always been wary of Archard. He was charming and handsome, but there was something dark and sinister about him. She could sense it in his eyes, his voice, his touch. He always seemed to have a hidden agenda, a secret motive. He always seemed to be plotting something, something evil and this time he is planning something big for her.
She had tried to avoid him, to keep her distance from him. But he was persistent till he choose her in the mating ceremony but his word's were constantly mocking her. She wants him at any cost but archard is keeping her away from himself which was bothering her and now he wants to introduce his female friend in front of his family. Valentina was not getting low from her idea. She really wants to do something which will lead her in his life permanently.
He pursued her relentlessly, showering her with compliments and gifts, flattering her and seducing her. He made her feel special, wanted, desired. He made her feel things she had never felt before but now his change behavior is giving her insecurity.
But she also felt something else. Something that made her uneasy. Something that made her doubt him. She felt a coldness in his heart, a cruelty in his soul. She felt a danger in his presence, a threat in his words. She felt a fear in her gut, a warning in her mind.
She didn't know what he was planning, what he was hiding, what he was capable of. But she knew it was something worse than she could imagine. Something that would hurt her, betray her, destroy her. She knew she had to get away from him. She knew she had to escape his trap
But she didn't know how she will handle him. In a moment I heard the noise coming from downstairs. I thought may be someone is here? I used my power's to hear what is happening there. I looked forward to him and said:
" ARCHARD IS HERE? OHH GOD HE IS HERE AND I'M NOT READY YET."
I took out from black half shoulder dress and quickly gets ready. I done my makeup and wear high heel so he will feel attraction towards me.
I was moving downstairs and then I saw Archard was talking to my parents. He was sitting on the couch, holding a cup of coffee and smiling politely. My parents were sitting across from him, listening attentively. I felt a surge of curiosity and anxiety. What was he doing here? What did he want from them? I tried to sneak past them without being noticed, but Archard’s eyes caught mine. He waved at me and said, “Hey, there you are. I was just telling your parents how much I admire you.”
I quickly walk towards him. He greeted me with a warm hug and a kiss on the cheek. He smelled like fresh laundry and mint. His eyes sparkled with joy and his smile was genuine. I felt a rush of happiness and comfort. He was always so kind and friendly to me. He made me feel like I mattered. He asked me how I was doing and what I had been up to. He listened to me with interest and empathy.
He took me out from the house. He excused from mom and dad. I was thinking that may be something is strange.
I said, "Archard, I need to talk to you. It's important."
Archard: Hey, Valentina. Can we talk for a minute?
"Sure. What's up?"
" I just wanted to apologize for what happened yesterday. I didn't mean to hurt your feelings or make you angry."
" It's okay. I overreacted too. I was just stressed out and frustrated. "
" I understand. You've been working so hard lately. You deserve a break."
" Thanks. So do you. You've been very supportive and patient with me."
" I'm glad you appreciate it. You know I care about you, right?"
" Of course I do. And I care about you too."
" Then can we hug and make up?"
" Sure. Come here."
" That feels better, doesn't it?"
" Much better. You give the best hugs."
" Thank you. You're not so bad yourself."
" So, are we good now?"
" We're good. No hard feelings."
" Good. I'm sorry for being so snappy with you."
" And I'm sorry for being so insensitive."
" Let's forget about it and move on."
" Agreed. How about we go out for dinner tomorrow and have some fun?"
" That sounds like a great idea. I could use some distraction."
" Me too. Where do you want to go?"
" You pick. I trust your taste."
" Okay. How about that new Italian place downtown?"
" Perfect. I love Italian food."
"Then it's settled. I'll pick you up at seven."
" I'll be ready. See you then."
