Chapter: Chapter 61Tristan’s POVMy ears start to ring just hearing that from my mother.What the hell is she trying to do?Elena looks uncomfortable now. “I don’t like exposing them to gatherings that are meant for adults.”“It’s only for one night,” Mom insists. “It’s a big party, and a lot of our friends are invited. I can tell them to bring their kids and grandkids. It will be fun for your children, I promise.”Opening and closing her mouth like a fish out of water, Elena tries hard to answer. But then, the door opens and the doctor comes out. “Miss Harrington?”Elena, looking relieved at the distraction, immediately gets away to talk to the doctor. Which gives me plenty of time to grab my mom by the arm and pull her to the side. “What the fuck are you thinking?”“Don’t you dare talk to your mother like that!” Dad barks at me.I just sigh. “Listen. I just need to understand why the hell you both thought it’s a good idea for Elena to be there. And you’re not even contented just dragging her there. Yo

Chapter: Chapter 60Elena’s POV“Alexander!”My scream echoes in my ringing ears. Time slows down, almost sputtering to a halt, and as I rush towards Alexander, it feels as though my limbs are traveling through amber. Slugging. Unable to reach him in time.Grace gasps. I know she didn’t mean to do it. She’s out for me.And that’s why she aims again.“I should’ve shot you when I had the chance!” she grits out, cocking the gun once more.But this time, someone springs out of the kitchen doors. The figure tackles the man next to Grace, distracting her and knocking him out with one solid punch. Grace backs off, then I see who it is.Tristan.He gets up and snatches the gun right of Grace’s hand, kicking it out of her reach. She tries to run, but he grabs her, pushing her down on the floor even as she starts struggling.I kneel next to Alexander, cradling his head on my lap. His side is bleeding, the red stain growing on his cashmere shirt. I can see blood pooling from under him.“Alexander,” I whisper, tears

Chapter: Chapter 59Tristan’s POVThere’s something wrong.I can feel it in my bones. As soon as Elena turned around and said to Alexander, “I’m just going to take care of something. The kids should stay here with you,” I immediately felt that something is off.I have known Elena quite well in our years of being married, and I have come to recognize when she’s hiding something. Or when she’s thinking about doing something that she doesn’t want anyone to find out about. There’s always that look in her eyes, and I saw that when she left.I pace the floor now, unable to leave the office even though I’m fully aware of Alexander watching me.“You can leave, you know,” he suddenly says, that same old smirk back on his face. “I don’t know why you’re still here.”“You mean you don’t feel it?” I ask. “Something is wrong. I feel like Elena went after Grace to talk to her herself.”Alexander stiffens. “That’s bad.”“I know,” I mutter. Then a decision forms in my mind. “I’m going to follow her. She can’t have gone t

Chapter: Chapter 58Elena’s POVIt’s reckless, I know. I might even go as far as call it stupid.But I don’t trust Tristan’s word one bit.So here I am now, trailing after Grace like a stalker.I know her apartment so I went there and waited until she headed out. Surely enough, she did. I did wonder what she was doing with her time since she wasn’t working, but she seemed busy. She was carrying a briefcase when she left, and she was speaking to someone on the phone. She seemed irritated, the way she always was when something work-related didn’t go her way.“I told you to meet me, now!” I heard her yell at someone on the phone.As slyly as I could, I followed her.Now, she’s on her way to a diner well outside town, and I’m trying to find a place to park so I can come in and watch her.I still don’t know my plan, exactly. I don’t know if I should just watch or try to talk to her. She hasn’t done anything suspicious so far. It’s not just Tristan who’s said something bad about her, either. Alexander also men

Chapter: Chapter 57Elena’s POVMy whole world stopped spinning. I never thought that it would come, my children being directly involved in whatever business that I got myself into.“This is all my fault,” is all I can say as I back out of the bedroom. “The kids….” Trailing off, I turn to Grandpa Harold and Uncle Marcus. “Is Penny still under your custody? Did she take my children?”Uncle Marcus steps forward. “Penny is still here, Elena. She never left the house. She’s under surveillance nonstop. We never let her out of our sight. The kids must have left.”“Left?” I echo. “This can’t be possible! Surely someone must’ve seen them come out!”“Let’s ask around, alright?” Uncle Marcus says, his voice going back to its gentle comforting tone. “They can’t have gotten far, wherever they decided to go.”“I’ll be taking care of our flight,” Grandpa Harold says. “If this isn’t the line that we shouldn’t have crossed, then I don’t know what is. I’ll go to the airport and arrange everything myself.”I nod, so worri

Chapter: Chapter 56Tristan’s POVWhat are the children doing here?I blink rapidly to make sure I’m seeing things correctly, and it turns out that I am. Sophie and Liam stare back at me, Sophie with curiosity and Liam with utter distaste. Alexander is still with them, sitting on the carpet with a box of toys on his lap, his lips pursed like he’s trying to think of a way to explain this.The silence between all of us lasts for a few moments. Then at last, Alexander raises his hands and breaks the ice. “Okay, so I can explain—”“Is Elena here?” I blurt out, then his words sink in. Explain, he said? What does he need to explain? Unless…. “Hey, is Elena even here? Did you take her children?”I take a step closer to him, but it’s Liam who gets in my way. “Don’t you dare accuse him of doing something bad! You’re the only one who’s capable of doing bad things around here!”I back off, looking at Alexander. I didn’t want to do it, but I ask for help with my eyes, wanting him to handle the situation as I don’t k

It’s an odd place to celebrate for sure, but Melissa can’t deal with her nausea anymore and she figured maybe it’s time to find out if her suspicions are true.And they are true.Melissa is pregnant.With twins.“Six weeks pregnant,” she says, roaming the ultrasound wand around. “Did you not have any symptoms apart from nausea?”“No,” Melissa says, shaking her head in amazement. “My period became a bit irregular for the past year, but that’s only because my clothing line is going international, and I’ve been stressed out.”“You would be less stressed out if you let me help.” Zane kisses her hand. “Come on.

Please!”With that, he guns it. The police are way too busy going to the area to stop him. I look back as Lottie settles on my lap, and I manage to see the officers pinning Eleanor to the side of the street, arresting her.It’s all over.Eleanor will be put behind bars.Hunter is dead.But Zane….I don’t want to think about it. Even when we arrive at the hospital, I refuse to think about it.The nurses and doctors take Zane in immediately, bringing him to the operating room.Andrew and I sit out front, getting treated by nurses. Lottie is snuggled against Andrew, still crying. That’s the only sound that passes between all of us. I just watch the door, wondering what they’re doing to Zane.

Chapter: 187 - TrickeryMelissa’s POVTime was already slow before, but now, it completely stops.The bullet I fired shoots to the side, completely useless, while Zane sinks to his knees, his eyes still wide in shock. Blood starts to flow from the top of his head to his face, streaming down his cheeks like tears. He raises a hand like he’s reaching for me, but I stand there, completely frozen.Meanwhile, Hunter spits out blood and laughs, raising his gun to fire more. “I warned you. I will kill all of you.”I don’t know what hit me. The idea of death and killing someone has always been too much for me, especially when Allie died. It’s too dark, a concept that I never allowed myself to think about, even when Eleanor’s abuse was at its worst.But seeing Zane like that, understanding the possibility that this is the end of his life… it broke something in me.I start to fire the gun. Over and over. As many times as I can. This time, my aim remains true. The bullets don’t ricochet. They all hit Hunter. On his che

I remember the blood. I remember the vision blurring. I remember flashes of being taken into a car, right into a warehouse. Lottie was there, and Eleanor too. Eleanor who slapped me many times and brought me into complete darkness….And now I’m waking up.The first thing I feel is pain. It seems to be… everywhere. In my head, my wrists, my ankles, my mouth. I try to take a deep breath, but then I feel the gag in my mouth. I almost throw up. My mouth opens into a muffled scream.But then I feel a hand behind my back.Thinking it’s Eleanor, I try to push my chair back. My eyes are adjusting to the dim light of the small candles around me, and I’m almost certain I will see her face.Only to hear a familiar voice.“It’s me. Calm down.”Did I die? Am I dreaming?Or is it really Zane that I’m hearing?My eyes fill up

He can’t stay still in his seat, so he exits his car and looks at the building, trying to see if he can spot Melissa either from the penthouse window or at the entrance.But just then, the lights in the penthouse turn off. Some of the staff start to leave. His heart jumps out in his chest, and he starts to walk to the office.“Hello?” Zane says to one of the women. “My girlfriend went in there to see someone it’s been twenty minutes and she was supposed to see Andrew.”The women look at each other. One of them looks familiar. Zane is almost certain he’s seen her with Andrew many times. She must be his secretary. “I’m sorry, but no woman came to see me for the last, like… five hours. Are you sure she went here?”That’s all the confirmation Zane needs.Forgetting about everything, he rushes to the building. It’s still open, bright and inviting. But there’s something si

It almost feels like his soul is trying to jump out of his body.I don’t blame him.We just came back to the city after what happened. We called the authorities in the province informing them of what happened. We turned the man in, and he did confess.But it seemed that the local police is in Eleanor’s pockets, because they didn’t do anything.“There’s no evidence,” was all they could tell us. “Now this man is a known drug addict here. His word can’t be trusted. For all we know, you bribed him to tell us what you wanted him to tell us.”No matter what we said to them, no matter how hard we tried to convince them that we’re not lying, they didn’t listen.Now we’re back, and it’s like nothing happened.

His Regret: The Alpha King Wants Me Now
“You rejected me,” I spit out, pushing his hands off me. “You humiliated me. You said you already loved someone else. So why are you doing this to me now?”
Fire dances in his eyes. “That wasn’t love. What I feel for you now is love.”
“And why do you think I can still love you after all that?”
“Because I’ll earn it,” he growls, towering over me, cornering me against the wall. He pins me flat with his body, letting me feel his raging hardness. “Day by day, little by little. I’m going to make you love me.”

Chapter: END.MONICA.ONE YEAR LATER.“Roman, will you be careful?” I ask in an exasperated voice as Roman picks up our son from his crib and starts to raise him to the air like he’s some sort of a relic. “If that child gets shaken….”“Come on, he’s not a normal baby,” Roman reasons out, making faces. “Aren’t you, boy? Look at his eyes. Look at his legs. This one’s going to be a warrior!”“Yesterday, you said he’s going to be a smart bookish king when he recognized the word I was saying,” I point out, and Roman laughs.Things are amazing now. I gave birth to our baby half a year ago, and every day, he grows stronger. He grows bigger.He’s the light of our lives.Our little Gabriel.It was Roman’s idea to name him after the boy who sacrificed his life to save me, and it just felt so right.I watch Roman take Gabriel into his arms, dancing him around. It’s a view that I can get used to seeing every single day, but our baby is growing fast. I know that soon enough, he’s not even going to fit in Roman’s

Deimos falls to the ground, getting up like nothing happened and kicking Gabriel in the stomach.But Gabriel retaliates with a punch that splits Deimos's lip. He spits blood on the ground and tries to fight back, but Gabriel seems to be much stronger and more solid. He seems to be more determined to win this fight too.Before I can do anything, Gabriel grabs Deimos by the neck and slams him to the ground. I can hear Deimos's head cracking, and I thought that this must be the end of it. We both wait for him to get up but he doesn't move.He must be dead. I hope to all the gods that he is indeed dead.Gabriel tries to pull me to the door but then Deimos gets up and lunges at him, tackling him to the ground and straddling him.

I don’t want to go back in there.”I don’t know what to do. I just stand in front of him. I don’t think I can kill a boy who just made himself really vulnerable to me. There’s something just plainly awful about doing that, so I just lower my knife and touch his back.“I won’t hurt you, but if you betray me, you’re going to die a slow death and I will make sure of it,” I declare. “Get up. How did you know that I was coming?”“Because I gave the Luna Queen a potion that would help her connection get stronger and contact everyone important to her,” he says, trying to get up with shaky knees. “My name is Gabriel.”He’s rambling.

In fact, he looks like he’s afraid. I don’t know if he’s afraid of me, or what the men around him are asking of him. Either way, he looks like he just wants to get out.I want to look him in the eye so we could communicate something. I feel like he could help me out of here. But of course, that’s just an idea. I want to look at him first, to know if he’s really against this or not.But he doesn’t look up at me.And the men walking with Deimos are now grabbing me by the arm, throwing me back into the room.

Deimos is saying in the background.I look down again, my heart beating in my ears now.I think there's only one way to do it without incurring lasting damage.I take a deep shaky breath and call on my wolf. "Are you in there?"Silence. For a while there's only the howl of the wind and the distant rustling of the leaves of the trees in the hill far away. But then, after a few tense moments, the voice of my wolf whispers in my head."It’s time.”Relief floods me. She's the only connection I have from my real life as of now, and I can't be happier."I want you to take over," I reply to her in my head. "I want you to be me and take us out of here.”Her strength fills me. I lean towards the ledge below, but as I do so, the door of the room closes and Deimos's attention is once again focused on me.I whip around and freeze. His eyes are wide with shock.

Black spots start to dance in my eyes, but I don’t care.The last boost of adrenaline from my defense mechanism kicks in, and it’s enough for me to break through my restraints and dodge Deimos’s bite.His teeth clack on thin air. And when he lifts his head again, I notice that his eyes are bloodred – he’s overcome by bloodlust. His look is dazed, animalistic, like a wild predator whose only concern is to feed.And that’s when I realize that this is the mating ritual he was talking about. He’s going to actually mark me like Roman did long ago.“Stay back!” I yell at him as he slowly approaches me, his hands snaking around my wrists “Come any closer and I won’t hesitate to kill you!”“This will be quick, sweetheart,” he croons, his long incisors giving him a slight lisp. He looks at me and that wild animalistic look intensifies. He’s like a lion stalking a prey, or a snake coiled to strike. “Don’t shy aw
