At the moment their eyes locked, a warm sensation flooded his heart. Why was he having this feeling? he asked himself quietly. He stared at the woman in front of him. She looked delicate and fragile.
Her pale white skin was glittering. It looked fresh like a baby's. It gave him this impression that the woman would definitely have come from a high class family.
She has a small oval face with a smooth tapered jaw. Her lips were plumb. Her grey almond eyes were attractive. Her hair was thick and long that reached a little before her waist.
When Kayden Diego saw her features, he couldn't help but secretly acknowledge the fact that she's really a beauty to behold.
He hadn't taken a fancy to the female species, not even when Jane Bidder was still his mate.
Lily felt very uncomfortable when her eyes and Kayden Diego's met. She felt like she'd known him before. But the way he looked at her from her head to her toes, it seemed like he was scrutinizing her and she's uncomfortable with it.
"My name is Kayden Diego and I am a 3000 years old werewolf Lord..."he trailed off when he saw she was looking frightened. She raised her head and stared at him with panic in her eyes.
Was she afraid of him already? "What now, are you scared of me?" Kayden Diego asked. Lily shook her head to imply she's not scared of him but her eyes betrayed her claim. The look on those eyes obviously gave her away as been afraid of the werewolf Lord.
Since she claimed not to be scared, he would continue saying what he was saying before he trailed off " Anyways, I found you at the verge of death and rescued you. You lost too much blood and I had to give you my own blood if you were to survive. Typically speaking, my blood was transfused into you to save you and that blood is a werewolf blood.
In other words, you have become partly human and partly a werewolf. And since you now have the werewolf blood running through your vein, you are likely to turn into a werewolf on a full moon.
Being a human, you can eat normal food like other humans as well but don't be surprised when you start craving for meat and dietary food. That would be normal for the werewolf part of you." Kayden Diego explained the important details to her. She's yet to understand her new personality and since he made her a werewolf, he had to take his time to explain some basics.
"You had a bullet injury in the heart when you were shot twice but I healed you with my Powers" Kayden Diego added.
But to his utmost surprise, the woman seated in front of him clutched herself together like in a hug and was asking herself a question whether he had indeed seen her body?
Kayden Diego squinted, he could hear her thoughts. Humans can be senseless at times. He just told her he saved her and cured her bullet injury and the last thing she could think about was if he saw her body.
"I am not interested in your body. The only thing that would have appealed to me about you would have been me, tearing and devouring your flesh" Kayden Diego replied her thoughts with an attitude of irritation.
Lily snapped her head up and stared at him. How did he know what she was thinking? This werewolf Lord or whatever he called himself must have been a mind reader. When her eyes met his again, she felt an indescribable feeling and quickly averted her eyes.
And still Kayden Diego still heard her thoughts. He smiled faintly before assuming his expressionless face again. He rarely smiles and when he does, it's when he's with those he's intimate with and it's usually very brief.
This woman called him a mind reader. She can't understand yet that he had the ability to read her thoughts. She's having his blood and can easily understand her feelings and thoughts just like she can also understand him when she trains her mind.
No human or werewolf can understand him as much as she can when her mind becomes trained. She's an integral part of him and their lives has become interwoven. He doesn't know why he did so much for a total stranger but felt excited doing it.
He hoped in the near future, she would be able to telepathically communicate with him. "Tell me who you are and why would someone want you dead?"
Kayden Diego's question made Lily to shiver.
"Who is she?" She asked herself the same question. She squinted, blinked several times but couldn't recall a thing about herself. The only thing she remembers was the dream she woke up from.
And why would anyone want her dead?
"I am Lily, I guess" She replied.
Kayden already heard her confused mind. She had definitely lost her memory. This will really be difficult for her to accept.
"If you're not sure, how did you know you are Lily?" Kayden Diego asked.
"I remembered that someone called me Lily (she blinked her eyes several times to see if she could remember who that person was but couldn't) before it seemed like I fell off a cliff or something" She replied with a worried expression.
It's so pathetic that a grown woman like her couldn't remember a thing about herself.
Kayden Diego's brow raised slightly, this woman had indeed fallen off a cliff. She can't remember anything else besides the falling?
"You really can't remember anything else?" Kayden Diego asked but it was more of a statement than a question. He could already guess she might be suffering from amnesia.
Lily nodded in affirmation. Her eyes became teary. The severe headache she felt earlier was panting her painfully and is very painful. Perhaps She should stop trying to remember her past. Kayden Diego saw her tears, he turned his eyes away. Someone or a group of people wanted this woman dead. He doesn't know what she had done or what their reasons were, but they could have at least informed the police and let them do their job rather than take her life into their hands. Or could it be they wanted to murder her for a gain? He would have Justin Stone investigate who this woman truly was. "How long have I been unconscious?" Lily asked. "Four days,"Kayden Diego answered simply. It's been four days since this woman has been under severe intensive care from a werewolf doctor. He couldn't take the injured woman to the hospital because first, he would have to give an explanation on how and where he found her and secondly, she wouldn't have been able to make it to the hospital. She
Fetching the walk-in talking out of his pocket, the call soon got connected "Officer Nathan on the line...ok...where?..I am with her husband, we'll be right there" Before the police chief could say anything, Damian Cross beat him to it and blurted out "what, has my wife been found?" glaring at the police officer as if he would swallow him whole if he was not fast enough in answering his question. "Not really, but something that might give us a clue to her whereabouts" Police chief Nathan explained. Damian Cross sighed audibly before he heard the officer ask "I am afraid you have to come along to identify some objects that were found" His colleagues have found some vital things that might be linked to Mrs Lily Cruz's whereabout. " Oh!.. sure I am more than willing to come along" Damian Cross agreed and took his phone and car keys and went out, walking behind the police officer . They drove for two hours non stop until they arrived at the boundary of the city. Some police
The transparent bag contains dry patches of blood. Damian Cross' heart quaked at what he saw. The officers squinted and waited for the Rappeller to explain what he'd seen down there. Getting the camera out of his waist purse, he showed them the various patches of dried blood that he saw at the bottom of the cliff. He told them further that he only collected a minute part of the blood patches for a laboratory examination. But something else really scared them: they saw prints of claws amongst the blood patches. From a closer observation, they realized the claw prints were most likely belonging to wolves. "We will have the forensic department examine the dry blood patches and get back to you as soon as possible. In the meantime, you can return home and wait for our call" Police chief Nathan re-assured Damian Cross. When they are through with their final investigation, and the blood patches tally with that of Lily Cruz, that's when they would announce the end of the investigati
What hurts Anna the most was that the woman her sweetheart was married to was none other than her best friend Lily Cruz!. Each time he's holding Lily in his arms and Anna is around them, he remembers how almost teary Anna's eyes usually were. But that was in the past now, he can be with her henceforth without having the slightest fear of being caught by Lily. He must thank his parents for their support.Their counsel coupled with the role they played in sending Lily and her parents to the other end of eternity is the pivot upon which his new life now leans. They helped him pave a way for financial freedom for the rest of his life. He would take over the Cruz cooperation as it's President. He didn't plan to silence Lily so soon, but this was all her fault. Who told her to find him and Anna doing things couples do?, something he had never done with her in their two years of marriage. He had been married to Lily for two years but hadn't consummated their marriage. He had l
With these thoughts troubling her mind, Lily rolled from one end of the bed to the other. Meanwhile, Kayden had retired to his study to do some work. He had not been to the office for quite some days now. He had been working from home and looking after the unconscious Lily. He wanted to know what her reaction would be when she opens her eyes in an unfamiliar house. But who would have knew, that she was going to lose her memory so much that she's not even sure of her name. After responding to some mails, and signing some documents, his mind drifted off to the woman sharing his roof. There's something about that woman that makes him want to help her. Why did he felt that inner compulsion to save her life? Why did he willingly gave up his blood? She's a woman and he was in his werewolf form on the night he found her. On such nights of the full moon any Wolf would be willing to devour and kill but on the contrary, he had the intuition to save her. When he brought her to his m
Without Waiting another ten seconds, Kayden Diego walked out of the room shutting the door behind loudly. He shouldn't have gone to her room. Why was he doing the wrong things over and over again after meeting this woman Lily? A certain part of his body had gone rigid and protruding like a predator capable of devouring his prey. If Lily had mistakenly allowed her eyes linger to the lower part of his body, she would have seen the pranks that certain part was playing on him. So embarrassing. Even if the sky was going to fall, he was not going to enter her room again. Kayden Diego got into his room and quickly went for a shower. He had to calm his tensed body. He had never felt like this before for any woman but this woman had awoken a sleeping part in him. He thought he was so strong and no woman was capable of arousing his masculinity. But that philosophy of his had been proven wrong by Lily. He must avoid her deliberately henceforth. He can't get himself into an unjust
Lily was the first to finish her meal. She glanced at Kayden who sat on her right and teased " if we were in a competition, I definitely would win". But Kayden did not reply nor spare her a glance. Justin had been stealing glances at his Lord and the woman by his side. Lord Kayden seemed uncomfortable with Lily's presence. The happy cheerful Alpha a while ago had now turned into an icy cold expressionless man. Seeing Kayden ignored Lily. He felt the atmosphere become chilly with a compressed aura. To ease the tension, and not make Lily angry he jokingly asked "that's how Lord eats and I am beginning to adapt to his way too" His fear was immediately dissipated when Lily chuckled and Said " I am usually excited when I eat my favorite foods and always ends up emptying the plates earlier than usual. And fried rice, is my favorite!" She replied happily with a giggle but suddenly paused with a frown. Justin saw the sudden frown on Lily's face and immediately asked "what happen
As soon as Justin went into Kayden Diego's study, he saw the latter staring intently at his laptop with a faint smile on his lips. He raised his hand and beckoned to him to come over. The study is a large room with a giant book shelf. The shelf houses a wide variety of books and journals ranging from business journals and books on various human endeavors. There's a large mahogany desk and behind it a swivel chair. There are different files arranged on one side of the desk. There's a part where stationaries are kept. Kayden Diego sat behind the desk with his computer on the top, obviously feeling excited to have been invited Justin over. Justin walked over. He looked at the laptop and saw what was displayed on it. A multimillion dollar contract award from the government of Z-country had been awarded to the Starlight Group!. Kayden Diego is the president of the Starlight Group, one of the largest groups in the city. This contract had been pursued by Kayden for months and h
