Outcast: The Alpha King's Beloved

Linda's POV: 

Jennifer's tests were tiring to deal with recently, so I took a warm bath with the intention of sleeping early.

After my bath, I received an unwanted message from Nick.

"How have you been doing recently? Remember when we had sex last time? I've never felt so good before.I want to do it with you again.Why don't we set a date and meet up?"

This sleazy werewolf was really disgusting.

How could he actually think that I wanted to be with him again? When I had sex with him, he turned out to be so perverted.

He thought that I liked having sex with him? Where did he get the confidence to assume that? 

"No, we had a deal.We shouldn't see each other again because we might get caught."

I replied to Nick's message, hoping that he would stop harassing me.

But I was naive in believing that could happen.

Nick texted back immediately.

"Oh, I see how it is.When I treat you nicely, you don't appreciate it.Bitch, I'm going to fuck you.If you don't let me fuck you, I'll tell Jerome that the child is not his.Even if you come and beg me not to do that, I'm not going to be so kind."

I felt like I was on the verge of breaking down when Nick actually threatened me.

Why couldn't I get rid of this jerk? I really didn't want to have anything to do with Nick anymore because he was disgusting.

If Jerome ever learned about our connection, it wouldn't end well for me.

After weighing the pros and cons, I decided to accept Nick's request.

"I'm sorry.I was too hasty with my reply, but I don't think now is a good time for us to meet.I can spare some time to meet with you.When should we get together? Which hotel?"

I quickly apologized and set a date to meet with him.

"This Sunday at Hilton Hotel."

"Got it."
