"You need to fire Kendrick!" Megan stormed into my office and slammed the door shut.
I exhaled in frustration. "Meg, I told you, you have no right to make such demands."
She threw her shopping bags on the floor and forced herself onto my lap, making it impossible for me to continue with my work.
"Please look at me when I talk to you, Matty. I'm your fiancé!" She put her hands around my neck and gave her most innocent pout.
A lowly growl left my mouth."No! You are my EX-fiance whose parents passed away a few months ago and I am the man who's trying to help you get back on your feet because of the history we share."
She scoffed and rolled her eyes.
My attraction to Megan died a very long time ago. Perhaps it was after we got engaged or it started after I met ...her... but either way, she is not a suitable partner for me in any way; not in the human world and definitely not in the supernatural world.
"Who would have thought that one of the most eligible bachelors uses women for s*x and then tosses them away like old rags!" Her lips curled into a menacing smile.
I knew this was another one of her guilt trips. I just knew it! But I also knew that she was telling truth. I never thought I would treat a woman this way, but I did. And no matter what I thought of Megan, I owed her for using her for my release.
About a four months ago, Kendrick and I had another late night at my office. He stepped outside to go get some fresh air and a few minutes later I received a call that shattered whatever was left of me. It was Eli...it was her mother.
She was hysterical and couldn't even talk through her tears. Her father took the phone and he begged me to bring his little girl back to him. They told me they had gone to the police and even hired the best investigators money could buy, but it had been more than 2 years and they had not heard a thing from their daughter.
I did all I could to ... to explain to them that I spend every single day trying to find her, but I have found nothing. It's like she has disappeared off the face of the earth. My best tracker and I haven't been able to find a single trace of her. I couldn't tell them that my search has constantly been interrupted by Audrey and her order of seers who continuously try to stop my efforts because apparently Eli...she would return when it was the right time.
They blamed me for her disappearance. They swore up and down that I would pay for taking their little girl away from them, and then they went back to begging me to bring her back to them.
After the call, I wrecked the office. It started with a punch in the wall, but I saw red and when I came to, I had punched numerous holes through the walls, broken the windows, tables and chairs and had torn the door off its hinges. The room looked like it survived an elephant stampede. Megan was standing where the door used to be when I looked up.
I thought she would run away, but she just started undressing.
That night, I had to let out my helplessness somehow. I realised that I would most likely never see Eli...her again. The agonising truth was ripping my insides to shreds and the pain was more unbearable than the one I had already become accustomed to. Her sweet long wavy hair that I had tried so hard to forget, the fiery golden eyes that haunted my nightmares and the angelic smile that plagued my mind every second of each day suddenly felt like they were all attacking me with their full might; beckoning me to give into the despair.
Megan looked like a life line, and I desperately needed one that night. I felt so alone and no matter how much I screamed, Orion still refused to speak to me, just like he has for the past 3 years. He didn't even so much as emit a growl.
So when Megan kissed me, I kissed her back and had my way with her. It was brief, but the distraction had pulled me out of the sea of despair that was threatening to swallow me whole.
That one slip up was all Megan needed to claw her way back into my life.
Knowing that I used someone selfishly like that disgusts me, so I have to make it up to her. I let her get away with making people think we're dating. I let her spend my money on whatever she wants. I let her use me to fund her lifestyle since her parents aren't around to do it anymore.
"Just tell me what you're here for already, Megan" I took a deep breath and got back to work while waiting to hear her most recent request.
She sat down on one of the couches and started playing with a few of the marbles that were in a bowl decorating the table.
"Your'e different, Matty. Always so...angry...But I'm still willing to have you even in your current state. I'm THAT inlove with you. I want you to love me again. That's what I'm here for. Just think about it. Megan Glaser, the hereiss to the Glaser fortune-"
"What fortune?" I raised my eyebrow and looked at her with a face filled with annoyance because that's what she was doing; annoying me.
"The press doesn't need to know about that little wrinkle. As I was saying-"
I interrupted her again before she could tell me more of her ridiculous reasons why we needed to get back together.
"I've said no to all that more times than I can count, Megan. I'm not marrying you and I'm not dating you. It was once, Megan. What we did only happened once."
She rolled her eyes and slumped back in the couch. "If I can't have you then at least let me go to Paris for a few days...or weeks. I need it since you slept with me and then threw me away like an old rag." Her eyes were daring me to refuse. She knew she had me cornered just by using those words.
"Fine." I said without looking up. "Now leave".
She clapped her hands and picked up her bags. "You're the best, Matty!" She gave me a peck on the cheeck and left my office.

Audrey's POV
"How's our little pup doing, my love"? Jonathan's hands were rubbing my belly while I stood infront of the mirror to finish getting ready for a gathering with the other seers.
I tilted my head to give him better access to my mark spot. His lips brushed over the silver crescent moon right underneath my neck, stopping briefly to plant a kiss that sent shivers up and down my spine.
"Our pup is barely the size of a peach, my love." I put my hand over his while he caressed my belly that wasn't even showing.
"Our pup might barely be the size of a peach right now, but the pup is an Ashwood. One day he or she will be the size of that big old oak tree by the Moon Godess' blessed river." He turned me around to face him and placed a gentle kiss on my lips.
I parted my lips for him and I felt his tongue gently wrestling mine for dominance. I wrapped my arms around his neck and he picked me up in one swift move.
"My big bad wolf", I said breaking the kiss, " I have to meet with the other seers in an hour and I still need to get to our sacred place. We don't have time for ...this."
He groaned and put me on my feet. "Lady Ashwood", he said in the most sultry voice, "you are the love of my life and I must have you right now or I will perish." He knelt down and slid his hand through the slit of my long black gown.
He knows that I go crazy every time he calls me 'lady Ashwood'. It's one of the many weaknesses I have when it comes to him.
His hand started slowly pulling my lacy red underwear down until it dropped to the floor.
I bit my lip as I watched the love of my life gently put my leg on his shoulder and move my dress to the side to gain better access.
"Jay, please" I moaned saying the nickname only I had the honour of using. I didn't know if I was telling him to stop or begging him to stop teasing me and just take me.
"What is it lady Ashwood?" He was leaving a trail of wet kisses on my inner thighs and inching closer to my core.
"We have to be quick." I was going to be late, but I couldn't stop now. The man had started something and he needed to finish it.
"As you command, lady Ashwood" His wet kisses finally reached my aching core. I felt his tongue take in my core from the base all the way to top of my budding nerves. His tongue was gently massaging my nerves and my moans filled the room.
I instinctively started grinding my hips to ride the beautiful wave that was his tongue. I was clutching at his blonde hair while he quickened the pace and started using his fingers to help me ride my climax.
I felt myself clenching around his finger that was inside me and I released a loud moan as I reached my high. He chuckled and the vibrations of his voice near my core sent tingles all over my body.
He stood up and greedily crashed his lips onto mine. I wanted more. I needed more. And I wasn't going to leave until he gave me what I so desperately needed from him right now.
His kiss was capturing every moan that left my mouth. I started unbuttoning his shirt and unbuckling his pants.
"You're so greedy, lady Ashwood. Don't worry, I will always give you what you want." He ripped his shirt off and got out of his pants in one swift move.
I couldn't help but take a step back and admire my husband's perfectly sculpted body. His crystal blue eyes travelled up and down my body as he walked to our bed and sat down.
"Let me give you what you so badly yearn for, my love. Come here." His eyes had never left me.
I stood before him and lifted my long black gown, trying my best not to crease the silky black dress.
He lifted my hips and slowly slid me onto his rock hard member. Making me take him in inch by inch. This is and will always be the most amazing feeling in the world.
My fingers dug into his back as I took him in. I started moving up and down while he crashed my hips down with each movement, stretching my walls.
"Jay", I was crying from the pleasure. "Don't stop, Jay. Please don't stop, Jay."
"I will never stop, baby. I can promise you that." He was groaning and caressing my backside while also sucking on my markspot. The sensations were too much and he captured yet another one of my moans with a deep kiss. I had barely recovered from the high when he pulled the top of my dress down, making my breasts pop out.
He started kneading them and greedily sucking them while I kept riding him.
I found my way to his mark spot and started sucking on the crescent moon while stealing kisses from him. He was pumping into me faster and each thrust was sending electric shocks through my body. He roared as he spilled his seed inside me and held me in place, not letting single drop go to waste.
I rested my head against his shoulder. I didn't want to let him go. I wanted to sit like this forever; on top of him while he was still inside me. That's all I wanted to do everyday, but that's just not the life we've been given.
He brushed my dreads to the side and peppered my shoulder with kisses while his hands were wrapped tightly around me.
"I love you, Jay".
"And I you, my love. You're my moon, my stars, my world."
I stroked his blonde hair, not wanting to let go but I had to. I was running late.
"I should go now." I tried getting up, but he wouldn't loosen his hands.
"Just a few more seconds, my love. Let me remain inside you. Let this moment last just a bit longer. We don't know how many more of these moments we might have."
His words were painful to hear, but they were true. Raphael may have been quiet for the past 3 years, but he wasn't just sitting idly waiting for the time to pass. He was preparing to rip the magical world apart.
I sank back into my mate's arms and gently rubbed the back of his neck. The seers could wait.
