Chapter 98

Third Person POV

Had to postpone our plan, Alpha Drake is on important business, we’ll have to turn over Raven after the wedding. Don’t worry, I have a plan.

Marissa scowled as she put her phone back in her pocket. She wasn’t sure if she believed her mother’s text but right now, she couldn’t get hold of her. She pouted, glancing sidelong at Hades who was staring fixedly out the window on the way back to the pack. He’d abandoned her in the restaurant leaving her pissed. All her efforts to win him over had ended up in smoke. What the hell did she have to do in order to get him to look at her? She’d hoped he would visit her hotel room but that had been in vain.

Important business my ass, she thought seething.

“Hades, the wedding is soon, how about we mark each other and get that out of the way,” she murmured, putting a seductive hand on his thigh as he slowly turned his head to regard her, his eyes so icy she immediately yanked it back.

She could feel the temperature drop a couple of degrees from that look alone. She didn’t understand his reluctance and his stubborness or maybe she just didn’t want to acknowledge the reality between them. That no matter how much she felt for him, even loved him, he felt nothing for her.

“I don’t like being touched. The marking waits until the wedding ceremony” he said tightly, reminding her once again that he would not be persuaded.

She burst into tears. “Why do you despise me so much?” she blubbered, ruining her makeup as he stiffened, “all I want to do is please you. What do I have to do to make you like me, even just a little?” her voice craked with emotion, honest and raw.

He cringed, avoiding her eyes, clenching his jaw and breathing deeply in order to keep his cool. She didn’t deserve his anger when it was nothing to do with her and more to do with his forbidden feelings
