Chapter 63 Her lover
AUTHOR’S POV
Gemma kissed her teeth for the umpteenth time in five seconds. Her head kept reeling with Gael’s words. There is no way he would mean something like that, not after all these years that she has put up with his stupid ass. Gael must think he can do whatever he wants with anyone. But it will be over her dead body. No one will make a fool of her, that is certain.
“How long do you intend to be this moody? All through the sex, you practically laid stiff like a log of wood. I shouldn’t have to suffer for a fool’s mistake.” Zac whined, kissing her bare shoulder.
She shrugged him off. “Haven’t you had enough?”
“That question should be directed at you. Until when do you intend to keep this up.”
“Shut it!” She growled, glaring hard at him. “If you think I am here because I have forgiven you for that stunt you pulled off, then you are mistaken.”
Zac hit his fist on the bed angrily. He has been with Gemma for years, long before she started aiming to remain by Alpha Gael’s side despite his sour attitude towards her. Gemma had the choice to leave him, unlike the concubines, but she seemed too adamant to remain by his side. He couldn’t take it anymore and wanted her to himself. That had prompted him to discuss with his father, a longtime friend of Beta Ezekiel, to set them up together. Unknown to the parents, they are pretty familiar with each other.
“I am not doing this with you. I am crazy in love with you, and it appears you don’t think me worthy of you. You only come around when you intend to burn off steam. What do I look like to you? A pushover? I went miles to have you see reason and understand that Gael will never let you remain by his side. What the fuck is wrong with you? I will not pretend to be fine with whatever you have going in that head of yours. Call me when you are back to your senses.” He scoffed, reaching for his clothes hurriedly to wear.
Gemma blinked rapidly, and it took her a minute to understand what was happening. “Baby, what are you doing?” She asked, snatching his trousers away from him and throwing them far from his reach.
“Get me back my clothes, Gemma.” He ordered.
“Zac.” She drawled seductively, trailing her manicured nail on his bare chest. “Baby, why do you keep forgetting the reason for all this? Moreover, I am in it too deep to let go now.”
“There never would have been the need to if you had listened to me three years ago when it wasn’t this messy. I have enough money for us to survive on for a lifetime. Your parents’ wealth is the same too. What’s the need for Gael’s own? Aren’t you too young to crave this much power?”
She leaned into him and placed a light kiss on his lips while guiding him back to the bed. She let him lay on his back and straddled him. “do you know what it would mean to become a Luna? Everyone is mine to control. I get to punish those who think I am on the same level as them. People like my cousin, and there is a certainty that death is the only thing that will take the position away from me.” She eased his cock into her vagina while he let out a soft moan.
“You are delusional. Your family is the top of the richest household in the entire pack. Being Luna is just a title.”
“How, then, do you explain the part of my father losing his position and everything going to that fool, Ezra? If I become Luna, you become the automatic Beta. How beautiful would that be?”
Zac smacked her ass and let out a snort. “Well, your dreams have been cut short now that Gael has ended things with you.”
“I don’t think you know me well enough. I am not one to give up easily. I have dedicated too much of my time and body to that bastard. He has to make me his Luna, and then we can end this mess.”
“Does your father know that his daughter is on the brink of losing her mind for something that will never happen?” Zac inquired, lifting her off himself.
“Listen, Gemma, the actual truth of the matter here is that you hate to lose. The moment you agreed to be with Gael, you knew this wouldn’t work out. If there is anyone in the Sunset pack who has the most determined mind, it’s no other than Gael. He would only do whatever pleases him unless you are going to hypnotize him to marry you. It’s never going to happen.”
“Then I will make him sad!” She gritted. “I am going to find out what brought about the change of heart first and if that happens to be a woman. She had better be ready to join the goddess wherever she resides. I killed his first fruit once. I will do it again if it requires taking out tens of people. Gael won’t make a fool of me.”
Zac exhaled tiredly, “Baby, you really won’t drop this ambition of yours even if I plead with you to?” 
“Zac, why are you being like this? You are the only one who understands me and knows what I desire the most. You have always supported me. Why won’t you take the bait this time around?”
“I love you despite how crazy you are, Gemma. And if I could go as far as showing myself to your parents to gain their affection. You should know then that I am ready to go any mile for you. However, my patience is running thin. I don’t know how long I can wait for you to get your fictitious position. I’m sorry, but Gael doesn’t think you are worthy of him. You aren’t fit to rule a pack, not when you are so fixated on your desires alone. If this would continue, I had better take myself out of the equation.” He said, getting himself dressed again.
Gemma kissed her teeth as she pinched the bed continuously. Gael is the reason she is about to lose on both sides. Zac has always been the one she loved, but her need for Gael is more of her obsession to be above everybody. Being the Beta’s daughter is a stepping stone. Her endurance with Gael over the years isn’t because she is so into him. If anything, she would have loved to poison him for everything he has put her through. However, she feels being able to hold on for a while will make him have a change of heart, and she intends to see to it no matter what. Her obsession for the position mounted since her father retired, with Ezra as the new Beta, which only means her relevance might become something of the past.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Tightening her jaw, she held his gaze. “If you won’t support me with my dream. Then you are free to go. I hope you know what you are doing. My love for you is the only thing that keeps me going.” She retorted with a bit of blackmail.
Zac’s shoulders dropped, and he plopped into the bed in frustration. “You will be the death of me.”
Her eyes thinned in excitement as she wiggled her brows at him. “I knew you couldn’t say no to me. What do you think of a blowjob?” Gemma cooed, crawling towards him.
Throwing his head to the back and spreading out his arms, Zac huffed. “Do whatever you want! I’m obsessed as it is.” He admitted, giving in to his lopsided fate.
