“And then he stormed into the restaurant and even called me a slut. Who does that?” I muttered into the phone and Aunt Amelia gasped

dramatically.

“He sounds like the worst,” She uttered.

“Why are you acting like I’m not here?” Damon muttered as he stretched his body on my

bed.

“Shh, I’m talking to someone important” I muttered and he just rolled his eyes at me before standing up from the bed and I tried my best not to stare at his man hood but it was a failed attempt. He was so huge.

“Where are you going?” I questioned whilst still on the phone.

“I have work, Clara. Just because I agreed to act like a husband to

“Why don’t you take a vacation for one week? At least I’ll be free from seeing your face for at least a week” I muttered and he chuckled.

“Sure baby but you and I both know you love my company” He

murmured then winked before as he wore his clothes.

Last night had been a night of wild sex. We had poured out all amazing.

My core throbbed just by thinking about it.

jobs back? They have a challenged mother to take care of and you just “I have to go to work too and hey? Can you give Jason and Job got rid of their only source of income because of jealousy” I muttered and he scoffed.

“Jealousy? Why would I be jealous of two little scrawny red haired kids? I mean, look at me, I cannot be compared to anyone” He muttered and I sighed.

“Such a Narcissist” Aunt Amelia uttered through the phone and I couldn’t agree more.

“Please just give them back their jobs. I’ll stop talking to them if that’s what will please you” I murmured and he turned to me with a raised eyebrow.

“Really?” He questioned and I nodded.

“Okay I’ll give them their jobs but on one condition” He uttered and I furrowed my eyebrows.

“What condition? I already said I wouldn’t talk to them” I muttered.

and

“Well even if you don’t talk to them, they’ll talk to you and due to the fact that you’re a goody two shoes, you’ll talk back to them and therefore I cannot trust you. I need to keep an eye on you so you’re coming to work with me” He muttered and I huffed.

“Just because I said we should behave like husband and wife to one another doesn’t mean we always have to be together. Despite the fact that my wolf wants to be with you, I still hate your guts” I muttered.

“Well my wolf is making me feel things too and he’s a very territorial and Possessive wolf. He wants you to himself and therefore is trying to keep you beside him” He uttered and my wolf purred in response. She loved the idea of her mate being possessive with her.

“Are you sure you’re not the one that wants me close, Damon?” I murmured with a teasing smile on my face and he scoffed.

“I know you’d love that right, little devil? I’ve got to admit, I want you close though” He uttered as he slowly walked towards me and I sucked in my breath as he leaned so close that the tip of our nose was almost touching.

“If you work for me, I’ll get to fuck you whenever I crave. I’ve got to admit, I love being buried deep inside you” He murmured before pulling away and walking out of the room like he hadn’t just said something that left me disheveled.

“Oh the both of you are like a couple just out of a novel. He definitely wants you” Aunt Amelia suddenly uttered, snapping me out of my trance. I had totally forgotten she was there.

“He doesn’t, he has made that terribly clear. He might just be attached to me now because of sex and we can’t really control the mating bond now” I murmured and she went quiet for a while.

“The mating bond isn’t that easy to fight, Clara, so if you’re hoping the feelings you have for him can be fought then…”

“I don’t have feelings for him, my wolf does” I instantly butted in and she sighed.

“Clara, everytime I call you you’re talking about Damon. Damon this and Damon that. If you don’t like him or love him like you say, you won’t be so bothered if he was with someone else” She uttered and I shook my head.

“Even if I don’t want to feel anything, my wolf makes me feel something and…”

“Don’t try to deny it, Clara, because I know you. I know you’re replaceing it hard to give your heart to him after what happened between you and Liam and you think Damon is going to break your heart” She uttered and I scoffed.

“I’m not thinking, he is going to break my heart. He said it himself that after he becomes Alpha King, we’ll divorce then go our separate ways. He doesn’t see or want a future with me so why should I aim for something that was never going to happen?” I questioned and she sighed.

“Clara…”

“I don’t like him, it’s just sex and a few emotions that should be gone someday. I can’t and won’t fall in love with him, Aunt Amelia” I murmured then ended the call before letting out a sigh.

I wasn’t going to start thinking of this again. I already spent last night thinking about this and giving myself a headache.

“I have to get to work” I muttered before sluggishly climbing off the bed and towards the bathroom.

After I was done bathing, I got out of the shower and walked out into the room only to see Alicia in my room.

“What are you doing here and who gave you the permission to enter this house?” I uttered and she scoffed.

“Oh? And who am I supposed to take permission from? You?” She uttered as she took slow steps towards me.

“Yes because I am Damon’s wife and you will respect me as your future Luna” I muttered and she laughed.

“Future Luna? You know the minute I saw you I knew something was off. Damon never had plans of getting married. He hated the idea of being mated to someone and then all of a sudden, he shows up with some gold digging cheap slut as his wife? So I began to think why? I even almost started believing it’s because he had feelings for you but these past few days have made me realize that Damon cannot be tamed by someone like you. So I watched and listened and guess what I found out? He’s just using you to get the Alpha King position and then he’s going to dump you like the slut you are” She uttered and I frowned while she had a crazy look in her eye.

“And?”

“And if I go to my uncle and tell him this with proof, Damon is never going to get that Alpha King title and you’ll suffer the consequences for deceiving the king and Queen. Do you want that?” She muttered and for some reason, I didn’t care about myself. I just cared about Damon.

“What do you want?” I questioned through clenched teeth and she smirked.

“As you already know, Iwant Damon to myself. I’ve been in love with him since we were kids and I’m the only one who understands him. I’m the only one for him and I can’t bear the idea of someone else having him especially someone like you” She uttered and I scoffed.

“So what do you expect me to do? He needs me to become the Alpha King” I uttered and she nodded.

“I know that and I want him to become the Alpha King but the way you guys are growing close is hurting me to the bone. I can see that he’s developing a soft spot for you and I hate it. He cannot fall for you” She muttered and I scoffed. He was never going to fall for me.

That thought alone made me frown.

“So what do I do?”

“I want you to distance yourself from him. The more you ignore him, the more he’ll ignore you. If you want him to be the Alpha King and if you want to live a normal life then you’ll do as I say. I’ll tell you when you’ll start, see you soon Mrs Donovan” And then she walked away leaving me stand
