Chapter 113

Love

David glared at me, “How dare you embarrass me like that?” he all but growled.

How dare you grab me like that,” I seethed.

“Love, do you fucking know how much this would damage my reputation? How can you even suggest I was broke, and I am after you for your inheritance?”

“Was I wrong?” I retorted sharply. His eyes fell for a moment before they found mine again. I was right. Ellis and CC were right about him. He couldn’t be trusted.

Yes. My company might have been in trouble, but I will get it back,” he grounded. The jaw along his face clenched.

“How? With whose money, mine?” I tilted my face. He didn’t answer me and proceeded to say,

“I care deeply for you, and you know it, Love. What happened? Why are you acting like that?”

“You tricked me into an engagement, leaked it to the press for publicity, and wanted me to be pleasant? Well, I’m sorry if I’m not,” I hissed, pushing him away. With incredible speed, he pressed me back against the wall and caged me again.

“Love, if you don’t marry me and my mother dies, it will be your fault,” he said in my face. The man was ridiculous. He was desperate to keep me. I almost chuckled. I pushed him from me.

I don’t care, David. From what I saw, Darlin seems to exaggerate a tad for attention. Let’s see how she fares when she learns that we are not getting married. If she dies, oh well, I guess I’ll send my condolences,” I shrugged, “I won’t be forced into a marriage. I do not want to make your mother comfortable. I owe her nothing,‘

I was now sure that Darlington was performing the day I visited them. David was mad. His lycan was close, but mine was, too, ready for a fight.

“Love, I’m warning you to watch your words right now,” he growled. I challenged him with my eyes. I was the daughter of the most feared alpha in the West. No one could talk to me or warn me as they pleased. I was no easy target to these puny alphas. David seemed to be forgetting who I truly am. I released my alpha aura. It swirled around us. It was dangerous. I was warning him.

He backed away slowly, seeing that I wouldn’t submit to him. I gave him a sarcastic smile,

Pathetic,” I murmured. Those words were a trigger for him. His Lycan completely took over and charged at me, but I was quick with my fists. I punched him between his legs and kicked him in the side. He doubled over, and I grabbed his neck. I pressed him against the wall in a chokehold. David glared at me, but I was unfazed by his glare.

“Don’t ever come at me like that. I will kill you whether it was your lycan that took over or not,” I warned him.

I let him go. His eyes were still fixated on me. He held a grudge against me.

Ready to go?” I heard Luis‘ voice. I smiled and nodded at him. My best friend had a proud and arrogant smile on his face. He

was watching us the whole time. I looked around us, and that was when I noticed people were watching us discreetly.

You made a splash!” Luis shouted in happiness.

“And I feel good about it!” I yelled back, “Thank you for letting me handle him.” I felt like a heavy weight was lifted off my body.

My hands were itching to kick David’s ass, but I knew it’s what you needed to feel good right now,”

I’m going to be the talk of the club now,” I giggled.

As the goddess must have planned, we made our way towards the exit, and I saw Darlington and two other women walking in. One of them was holding a magazine with my face on it. I’m sure they were talking about our engagement. Darlington noticed

me and gave me a huge smile that I returned. She didn’t look sick at all. She was holding a glass of wine in her hand.

My dear Love, It’s nice to see you here,”

Lovely to see you too, Darlin. You look well,” I said. She frowned and faintly smiled.

Oh, yes. The meds I’m on are doing wonders today, and my friends thought it would do me well to come here, you know,” she laughed and looked at her friend. They both gave her a tight–lipped smile and a slight roll of their eyes as though they knew it was a show. Goddess! I felt like an idiot for believing her actions. Even her mother–in–law, Didi, said it, but I ignored it.

“Ladies, you know my future daughter–in–law!” She said to her friends. They gave me a genuine smile and greeted me.

I got the engagement ring but forgot to throw it at David. I handed it to her and politely said,

“I forgot to give David back the engagement ring. I won’t marry your son, Darlin, “I was nonchalant. Darlin looked horrified. She was opening and closing her mouth like a fish. The good news was that she didn’t faint. So, I was right. Her friends had a satisfied expression on their faces.

Have a good day, ladies,”

I walked past them. I could feel stares at me, but I ignored everyone around me.

I was smiling as I walked to the parking lot with Luis. He threw his arm on my shoulder and kissed my temple.

“I’m so proud of you for standing your ground,” he said.

“Thank you,” I answered.

Even though what I did felt good, I couldn’t help but feel emotional when I entered the car. David was only using me.
