Chapter 1 Uninvited Guest

Nelo buried her head under a pillow when the alarm from her phone went off, she wanted to sleep a little bit more but it was already too late. Her head banged.

She felt like her head became a railway and a train was running through it, throwing the pillow away out of frustration, squinted at the rays of sun emanating from the window, she grabbed her banging head with both hands."what is going on" Nelo thought to herself as she looked around realizing that she was in an unfamiliar room lying in an unfamiliar bed, scared as she unwrapped herself out of the bed, her mind wondering how she got there."have I been kidnapped, have I been raped" she hurriedly touched her body for any sign and felt relieved when it seemed everything was normal. in a bit to turn off the alarm, she reached for her phone placed on the dressing table besides her handbag, her head was flooded with every information she needed to clear her curiosity. It was as if her brain has been in a booting process ever since she opened her eyes.

Nelo's legs became weak as she struggled to stand. Now she understood why she woke up in an unfamiliar place instead of her room or a hotel room where she has been sleeping for five days since she left home. The last night event became clear, after driving around the town aimlessly as she had done for the past five days, instead of heading back to the hotel where she lodged and cried herself to sleep like she had always done she decided to take a different approach.

"You are awake, good morning" Nelo Snap out of her thought, she jerked her head towards the door "good morning" avoiding eye contact "I guess you will need this"he handed her a cup of coffee"it will help your hangover"

"Thank you"

"I'm Kelvin" he extended his hand for a handshake but withdrew it when she hesitated. "Take a shower and come for breakfast" Kevin left. Nelo stood rooted on the ground she wished she had a superpower to vanish into a thin air or the ground would open and swallow her whole. she turned red from the embarrassment, it became worst when she looked in the mirror on the dressing table she looked nothing of herself."dammit" she cussed under her breath.

Kelvin was already at the dining when Nelo walked in with her purse clutched on her hands. he could sense her embarrassment and decided he would not mention about last night.

"Please sit" Kelvin beckoned her

"Thank you for everything but I am not hungry"

All she wanted was to run away, to disappear, food was the last thing on her mind.

"But I have already made the meal for both of us and it's so irresponsible to waste food"Kelvin tried convincing her which got a better part of her, she sat down and focus only on her plate. Kelvin smiled at her cuteness.He remembered last night, how she caught his attention at Maple bar. He had finished an executive meeting and had decided to have one or two glasses of wine before he could retired home, he had noticed a lady drinking by herself, the light in the bar was not very bright but you could tell she was a damsel, her facial features was not a regular one,the way she was sitting made it hard for anyone to ascertain her body features but that was not important at the time, because Kelvin had observed two guys hovering around her like a hawk ready to prey on a chick.

"Thanks for the meal and I'm really sorry for all the inconveniences I have cost you"

"It's okay" Kelvin assured her. "Give me a sec, I will drop you off"he offered

"You don't have to worry I have ordered a ride" she picked her bag ready to go.

"Can I have your number"Kelvin demanded

"I'm sorry"she rushed at the door.

"Can I at least know your name"she stopped on her track"Chinelo, Nelo for short" she dashed out of the door.

Nelo had thought drowning herself in liquor would be the better approach to overcome or at least forgot her sorrow for a bit, but no she was wrong she had ended up in a stranger's bed, with a throbbing headache and upset stomach. It could have been worst. what if she had ended up with a bad guy, a kidnapper, a rapist or even an organ harvester. A lots of thought had run through her mind as she drove back to the hotel after she had picked her car from Maple bar parking lot. She had decided to pick herself up and face her problem head on even though her world was at the verge of collapsing if it had not collapsed already, she had a family and her job to protect.

Her family and her job were the only thing she had loved aside David. David had been in her life for solid five years. She had built her world around him. She had loved him. Aside being handsome, he was reliable confident and hardworking fellow who had treated her with love and respect who had never cared about her background.

Meeting with David had changed her life in So many ways especially her sex life. As a girl child who had grew up in an orphanage home at St. Joseph convent had lived a conservative lifestyle. Nelo never had contact with boys until she was twenty-three years old, she had left the orphanage for higher institution. Her first time was nothing but pain she had cried throughout the act but had accepted it since she heard the first time were meant to be painful, but nothing changed, she felt the same way to the end of the relationship. She had believed that sex was overrated she concluded that sex was only designed for men to enjoy so when she had her second relationship she had to endure through it and let the man satisfy himself.

"Lucien, let's get a divorce," I said in a peremptory tone that was long overdue, the most decisive farewell to this absurd marriage. We had been married for exactly three years-three years that, for me, were filled with nothing but endless loneliness and torment. For three years, the husband who should have stood by my side through every storm, Lucien Sullivan, had completely disappeared from my life as if he had never existed. He vanished without a trace, leaving me alone to endure this empty, desolate marriage. Today, I finally received his message: "I'm back. Come pick me up at the airport." When I read his words, my heart leapt with joy, and I raced to the airport, thinking that he finally understood my love and was coming back to me. But his cruelty was far worse than I could have ever imagined-he was accompanied by a pregnant woman, and that woman was Carla, my closest and most trusted friend. In that moment, all of my previous excitement, all my hope, and all of our shared laughter and tears turned into the sharpest of daggers, stabbing into my heart and leaving me gasping for air. Now, all I want is to escape from this place that has left me so broken-to lick my wounds in solitude. Even if these wounds will remain with me for the rest of my life, I refuse to have anything to do with him ever again. He should know that it was his own hand that trampled our love underfoot, that his coldness and betrayal created this irreparable situation. But when he heard those words, he desperately clung to this broken, crumbling marriage, unwilling to let it end-almost as though doing so could rewind time and return everything to how it used to be. "Aurora, come back. I regret everything!" Regret? Those simple words stirred no emotion in me-only endless sadness and fury. My heart let out a frantic, desperate scream: It's too late for any of this!

COALESCENCE OF THE FIVE SERIES BOOK ONE: THE 5-TIME REJECTED GAMMA & THE LYCAN KING BOOK TWO: THE ROGUES WHO WENT ROGUE BOOK THREE: THE INDOMITABLE HUNTRESS & THE HARDENED DUKE *** BOOK ONE: After being rejected by 5 mates, Gamma Lucianne pleaded with the Moon Goddess to spare her from any further mate-bonds. To her dismay, she is being bonded for the sixth time. What’s worse is that her sixth-chance mate is the most powerful creature ruling over all werewolves and Lycans - the Lycan King himself. She is certain, dead certain, that a rejection would come sooner or later, though she hopes for it to be sooner. King Alexandar was ecstatic to meet his bonded mate, and couldn’t thank their Goddess enough for gifting him someone so perfect. However, he soon realizes that this gift is reluctant to accept him, and more than willing to sever their bond. He tries to connect with her but she seems so far away. He is desperate to get intimate with her but she seems reluctant to open up to him. He tries to tell her that he is willing to commit to her for the rest of his life but she doesn’t seem to believe him. He is pleading for a chance: a chance to get to know her; a chance to show her that he’s different; and a chance to love her. But when not-so-subtle crushes, jealous suitors, self-entitled Queen-wannabes, an old flame, a silent protector and a past wedding engagement threaten to jeopardize their relationship, will Lucianne and Xandar still choose to be together? Is their love strong enough to overcome everything and everyone? Or will Lucianne resort to enduring a sixth rejection from the one person she thought she could entrust her heart with?
