Chapter 9

"Why?" My wolf, Xavier screamed into my brain. "Just why?"

"Don't you get it? I didn't bring her here for lovey-dovey and happiness. I brought her here to torture her, to make her pay for her crimes." I screamed back at him, but inwardly, I asked myself the same question.

"To take away everything she took away from me. She destroyed my life, and she never knew, but oh my! She was going to pay, heavily."

'But I want her. I want to mark her,' Xavier said again, but in a cooler manner this time. Ever since I became a Lycan, my wolf's strength had increased by a hundred percent. 

It took a toll on me to control him. I had to fight before I could take hold of my body and atop my wolf from marking Enisa.

"Well, for once, Xavier, you'll have to dance yi my tune." I groaned, and I could feel my eye color go completely dark. Immediately, my wolf melted and relaxed back fearfully.

I took a deep breath and sat back on my bed. I wanted to pierce a knife through my skin so badly, to punish myself, to feel the pain for what I did today.

After what Enisa had done to me, she didn't deserve any of it. All she deserved was pain, agony, and more pain.

Although I tried to hide the truth from myself, I knew it too. My wolf didn't make me kiss her. He pushed me to, yes. But my wolf didn't control me. It was the other way around. So there was no way I could have done anything I didn't want to.

It disgusted me to know that I wanted to kiss her, claim her, and forgive her. But she must pay, and her running mouth was going to make things worse.

A knock came through my door, and from the scent, I already knew who it was.

In seconds, I opened the door and dragged her I tore her clothes, and she jumped on me as her lips crashed into mine.

"Alora," I breathed into her mouth, and she found her way into my pants and pulled out my already erect cock.

I needed a distraction, and this was the perfect one.

"Rude piece of shit!" I walked from corner to corner of the room angrily, the memories of what happened earlier replaying in my head. 

Why start something you can't finish? I hated myself more than anything for giving in to him, for making him think I was easy to get.

I didn't want to, but my wolf had other plans. She was all in, completely forgetting that this was the man who abandoned us when we needed him most.

"Are you sure that's the reason you're so mad at him?" Sky taunted in my head, but I growled at her to keep quiet. Besides, this was her fault.

I couldn't help but wonder why Dracula was so mad at me. I mean, I was the one who was wronged, not the other way around. Did something happen after I left?

I threw the thought away from my head. It wasn't any concern of mine. Besides, I'll get back to my company tomorrow.

I could really use a distraction.

    I blinked as the morning light penetrated my eyes. It was morning already. I touched my face to clean my eyes, but I found it a bit moist. Did I cry in my sleep?

A knock came to my door, and it immediately opened. I wanted to scream at the person for not waiting for an answer. What if I was naked? I changed my mind when Alora walked into the room.

"You're not ready yet, I see," She scoffed, looking at my pajamas and tied-up hair.

"What do you want, Alora?" I sighed and proceeded to pick up a brush

"Mr Dracula  has sent for you to come to breakfast so you can be dropped off at work." 

"I can't drive myself to work, but thank you and your master for your very kind gesture," I hoped I sounded sarcastic enough for her to understand, but she laughed instead. 

"Oh, he wasn't asking, Darling," Her smile still lingers on her face.

"Like hell, I'd care what you and your delusional boyfriend think." 

Her face changed immediately, and she began walking toward me. I clenched my fist and waited for her to try anything stupid, but instead, she bent closer to my ear 

"I don't like you, Enisa, but I'll give you a hint. Dracula isn't one to be joked with. If you don't want to be dead and buried beside your two kids, you'd better learn to keep quiet and do whatever the fuck you're told."

With a smile, she dropped a white paper on my bed and retreated to the door 

"That's the remaining conditions of your agreement. Good morning, Mrs. Enisa Storm." With that, she disappeared, and my door was closed.

All that kept ringing in my head were my twins. Did Dracula have any evil plans against them? Did he plan to hurt them just to get me into submission? If Dracula lay a finger on even a strand of hair on any of them, I'd release hell.

I picked up the paperwork Alora had dropped, and just like I suspected, within the 3 months, I was going to merge my company with Dracula's and would be an employee there, his assistant.

I couldn't even argue or feel sad. All I could think about were my twins. What if Dracula harmed them?

I took a deep breath and dragged myself to the bathroom.

"Dracula is a monster," I mumbled, letting the water from the shower soak me.

"Of course, I am, Darling. But the devil will be a more appropriate title, don't you think?"

I turned backward to see Dracula sitting on my bed, holding the framed picture of my twins.

He looked up at me, and before I could grab the towel that hung on the door, he had already seen everything.

Our eyes met, and he smiled.
