~Jade’s POV~
I sat and watched Mr. Arrogant stare at me with such hunger, or maybe it was disdain combined with hunger, but I’m not giving up. Kate hadn’t taken her seat yet, so I went to a seat with a better view of Mr. Lombardi. With his gaze on me, I drew my skirt up to my thighs and opened my legs. Since she stole my funds, I have been motivated to do just about anything to piss Kate off. I will steal her next target. Domenico kept his attention fixed on me as he held my scarlet thong to his nose. I parted my legs to give him a better view.
“Oh my God, Jade, what have you done?”
“Just watch, Lee. Just watch.”
I had no intention of giving up. I intended to leave Domenico Lombardi, wanting more of the garbage that wasn’t worthy of standing in front of him. I watched as the man stood up and walked away from Kate. I smiled as he dashed out of Mike’s like he was running for his life. I then drank my wine while closing my legs.
Time to face Kate
She shifted her gaze to mine. I could see the disdain in her eyes, but who cares? I’m going after that Zillion-dollar cock, and no one is going to stop me. Kate began walking toward me.
“Kate is heading this way,” I said to Lee, and she gulped down the remaining wine.
“This isn’t going to end well, Jade.” She exhaled a sigh. “Waiter, I’m going to need another drink!” She called on a waiter as the guy was passing by, “We need another bottle.” I straightened my skirt and waited for Kate. She stood erect in front of me, confident, perhaps a touch too confident.
“What do you think you are doing, you piece of shit?” She barked, and I swirled my wine and started to calculate Kate’s life at the moment. She withdrew my college funds so she could buy clothes and jewelry to please Domenico and do yet another plastic surgery to look young and like a model. So, if I’m correct, Kate no longer has my money because she spent it. I smirked and sipped my wine.
“I’m speaking to you, Jade!”
“Hello to you too, Mother.” She looked around, making sure no one knew she was my mother. I laughed. “You may be hiding behind that lovely façade, but you are not a girl. You are a mother, which is a horrible reality that cannot be changed.”
“At least the world doesn’t get to know that this ugly duckling in front of me is my daughter.”
“Well, not that I crave your motherhood, Kate. You are a little outdated.”
“You are nothing close to what I am, Jade. You’ll need 50 years to catch up to me.”
“Well then, Mother, we shall see,” I said to her and winked. I really don’t have her time. For her to come to me, she feels threatened, and she should because I am going to tame that man and make him mine while she watches.
“Domenico isn’t your type, and he regards you as a bothersome young girl. Leave him alone. He’s going to be my next husband.”
“You mean your next target? The last time I checked, the man wasn’t married. And Kate, if that man is to be married, I, Jade Davis, vow to be his bride.”
“Just stay out of my way or you won’t like what I will do to you.”
“Well then, Kate, return all my college funds and I will leave your next target.” Her face turned crimson, and she spun on her heels and walked away. Lee continued to stare at me.
“Who is this young lady?”
“I’m not sure.”
“I don’t mind, but I’d like you to keep this girl. She is on fire, and she’s blazing. I like her.” Our wine bottle arrived, but I have an assignment. I need to find out just who Domenico Lombardi is. But I was not planning on leaving Lee by herself. We finished our drinks, and she drove me home. A hubbub greeted me as I went in. I removed my heels and changed into my slippers.
“You are so pathetic, Lucas. I don’t have a daughter. That hideous creature you call a daughter isn’t mine. Tell your useless daughter to stay out of my way or I will end her.”
“I imagine you couldn’t tolerate loss and decided the best way to deal with it was to run to your ex-husband. Kate, I’m not going to back down. If you believe your artificial face will save you, you must go and work extremely hard on it, for I will ruin your life. Bring back my college funds or face my wrath. Your next target is almost certainly loaded, and I just happened to want him.”
“Do you agree with your daughter dating a man old enough to be her father, Lucas?” I observed my father pacing, but his response astonished me.
“Whatever makes my daughter happy is fine with me! You are nothing to us. Now get the hell out of my house. You witch!” Kate’s expression was filled with surprise. She was continually leveraging my father’s love for her against him. But it was the college funds that opened his eyes. She tried to grab my father’s hand, but he yanked it away. “Not anymore, Kate, get out!” She took her Jimmy Choo purse and walked away. I fixed my gaze on her. She was my mother, but I felt nothing for this woman. I walked straight to my room, had a shower, and went to the kitchen to prepare a meal for my father. Unlike him, he was fairly quiet today. I positioned the platter in front of him. He looked at the food and at me. I made his favorite dish, but it seems like today the food wasn’t his favorite at all.
“Sweetheart.” He called out in hushed tones. “Do you mind having a seat?” I asked no questions. I simply sat with my hands on the table’s surface. He groaned, scratched his chin, and fixed his gaze on me. “Do you have a thing for older men?” I went completely still. Do I like older men? I’m not even sure if I like older or younger men, as I haven’t dated anyone yet. I looked at my father but didn’t say anything. Then he went on, “I thought we agreed that if you started dating, I’d be the first to find out. What exactly is going on? Are you dating this Domenico guy? Please say something, sweetheart. Remember, it’s us against the world, and you know very well that I will never judge you, my little sunshine.” He started playing with the food but did not eat it.
“I will tell you everything over your meal. You eat, and I talk. Do we have a deal?” I noticed him smiling as he began to eat.
“I’m not dating anyone, and I’m not sure if I like older or younger men.” My father looked at me as I halted. “I overheard Kate talking in the bathroom about wanting Domenico Lombardi to be her next husband. I became enraged because she stole my money for selfish reasons. She bought clothes, underwent surgery, and did everything she could to impress Mr. Lombardi. She wanted to chase after Mr. Lombardi’s dad with my college funds.”
“Is that enough reason for you to woo him? Are you doing it out of love or to get under your mother’s skin?”
“I don’t know,” I said honestly. I don’t know if I like the man, but I wanted to play this game with him to piss off my mother.
“Well, sweetheart. Find out what you want. You will never know.”
“What if I fall in love with him?”
“Well, if you like him, you like him. There is no getting around that.” He smiled as he finished his meal. "And Jade, just so you know, no father would be happy knowing his little girl like men his age. I want the best for you, but if you like older men, it's your choice."
~Jade’s POV~I was waiting for Dark to call me while lying down on my bed with my head facing the ceiling and my phone tapping on my thighs. It has been a few hours since I have been resting in this position. Dark promised to call every day, but he hasn’t called, and it’s starting to get to me. I have been watching porn for the past three days. Dark seems to be an experienced man, so I had to up my game. When I glance at the watch that hangs on my wall, I see that it is almost one in the morning.I expected him to call today because he hadn’t called in three days. The realization that it was going to be another night of disappointment caused my eyes to start getting heavy, and I let out a sigh as I came to terms with the situation. I got out of bed and went to the bathroom, where I did my business. After that, I went to the basin and splashed some water on my face so that I could remain awake for at least an additional hour. I’m not ready to give up just yet. The moment I finished rin
Domenico To say that I was angry would be an understatement; to say that I was disgusted would be more factual. It has to be a dream, a dream that I need to wake up from as soon as possible. I scooped some of the water out of the basin and threw it on my face. My mind has been preoccupied with the thought of morphing for some time now, but how can I do that? Humans are all over the place. As drops of water ran down my face, all I could do was wish it was just dread I saw that day. At the thought of her, I could feel my chest becoming tighter and my breath becoming more labored. At the mere thought of that unworthy thing of a mate, I saw that day blood had already rushed through my body. And now… I couldn’t even breathe without thinking of her. How dare Celine do this to me? A useless human mate. Mate is an understatement, a queen. A fucking queen! How the fuck is she going to lead an entire kingdom when she is just a little, scared human? She makes my skin crawl, and I just can’t s
DomenicoI drove aimlessly around my kingdom for about an hour or so, attempting to calm the restlessness that had settled into me and the tightness that had developed in my cock at the mere thought of my mate.Mate.I tried everything I could think of, but nothing seemed to help. I stepped on the accelerator, reaching the highest speed limit. I was doing everything I could to forget her, or so I thought. The bonds shared by Lycans are significantly more powerful than those shared by a typical wolf, and for me, the king is even more powerful. You start to crave her, smell her everywhere, feel her, and the urge to pup her is very high, but I can’t. Once you meet your fated one, you start to crave her. I have to kill her before she starts to be a distraction in my life. I need a fuck, and I can’t fuck a human in this state. The only kind I can fuck is my kind or she-wolf.The mere idea of the queen is enough to make me seethe to my very core, and all I want to do is fuck; however, I des
Jade It’s incredible what people will do when they’re desperate enough, above all, temptation. I spent the money I received from Dark in the hopes that I would make more. Well, maybe I am just too bad at everything. Dark hasn’t called for a week now. To drown my sorrows and forget about everything that’s bothering me, all I really need is a drink right now. I took a bus to God knows where downtown. I walked down a street full of lively people, and I was the only one who wasn’t. After what seemed like an eternity of walking, I finally asked a random person if there was a bar in the area, and he said yes and pointed me in the direction of a club. As soon as I walked into the bar, I noticed that it had a sophisticated and unique atmosphere. There weren’t many women in the bar; most of the patrons were dressed all in black and appeared to be security guards. They were all speaking with an Italian accent. There was no way that they could have been security guards; in fact, there was no
DomenicoI woke up all cuddled up with my cock prodding against something slippery.Slippery… Pussy?No! No! No!My eyes popped open, but I was unable to make out the girl’s face in the fading light of my bed. I have never fucked a girl and couldn’t remember a thing. What’s so special about the girl in my chambers that I can’t even remember when I brought her home?Fuck!I can honestly say that I have never let a woman sleep in my bed. Never! Did I just hump a woman in my chambers? I gave the air a whiff, and Warg yowled in delight at the back of my head as I inhaled the most alluring aroma that I am very familiar with—hazelnut. “What on earth have you done?” Furious, I questioned Warg. The audacity! How dare he do this to me!“Took mate home.” After much delay, the idiot spoke up.“Did you have to make me lie naked next to her?” Warg was acting giddy and jumping around in my stomach like a Lycan would when there was a full moon. He was flipping around like a gymnast. I jumped out of
JadeI tried to gather every sense I had left, trying to convince myself that this was only to piss off Kate, but I am now needy; I want Mr. Lombardi to do things to me, and now I am trapped with him, in his bedroom. When my father found out that I was chasing after Mr. Lombardi, he asked me if I liked older men, and I couldn’t give him an answer. Now I’m starting to wonder if I actually do like older men. Do I, Jade, in fact, have a thing for older men?No way, no how could I possibly be interested in older men? It has to be the phone sex that I am constantly having with Dark because it is the only thing that can explain why I am having all of these irrational thoughts about the man who is standing in front of me. How can I be attracted to a man my father’s age? Nah, not possible. I wrinkled my brow and shoved Mr. Lombardi away from me in an attempt to gain some space.“Get off me!” I yelled, completely forgetting that this was a job, but the man let out a loud growl, and his eyes f
Jade Thump. Thump. Thump. In what part of the world is this place? In this extremely bright weather, I’m experiencing aches and pains, as well as disorientation and chills. I closed and then partially opened both of my eyes. I am on the street, but where is this place? Where will I be heading if I ever decide to walk? Not that I will start walking. As I got up from where I had been thrown, I inhaled deeply the fresh morning air. Cursing came out of my mouth as I stared at the enormous gates that stood in front of me. When I thought about being thrown out of Mr. Lombardi’s house like a sack of cement, anger started to well up inside of me like a volcano. I can’t even remember how I got here, how I ended up being muffed by Mr. Domenico Lombardi’s delicious tongue, or how I ended up milking his delicious rock-hard cock till it was semi-hard. Hell! What am I thinking? Since the day I met that man, my mind has been filled with filthy thoughts, thoughts that I had no business having in
DomenicoI guess you could say Selene sealed my fate and I’m running out of time, which is laughable considering the fact that time has never meant anything to me, of course, in the past. My life up until this point had flowed like an endless river because I was an immortal king, with each day being guaranteed by the one before it. But not anymore; my mate showed up, and she wasn’t anything as I expected. A human. A stupid little girl who has a lot to learn.I am fucked.I thumbed the disastrous emerald ring on my finger, which right now I believe is the cause of all my problems; hallelujah, my fate was sealed the day I was born. The history of where this ring came from is a mystery. It was presented to me by the midwife, who attended my delivery. My mother said the woman slid the ring after my birth and died instantly with no explanation whatsoever, more like her assignment was to deliver me.They tried unsuccessfully to remove the ring from my finger because it was believed that the
