Chapter: Chapter 21Isabella’s POVMy womanly instinct smelled a rat, and all efforts to ignore it fell flat on their face.Ever since I smelled that perfume on his collar, I knew, just knew, that there was another woman.He started calling me to the bedroom, probably out of guilt, but most nights he complained about being too tired. He said he needed to rest, and I couldn’t say anything. I couldn’t even confront him about there being another woman.Now, after deciding to track him down, I found him in a sleazy motel room with that very woman. Immediately, all I could see was red, and by the time I had calmed down enough to be yanked away, there were fistfuls of hair in my hand, but not enough to completely ruin the woman’s appearance.When she backed away, I finally saw her face, and it struck me like a slap across the cheek.For a moment, I almost mistook her for that useless sister of mine. However, a closer look made me notice that her cheekbones were sharper, and her eyes didn’t have that same fooli

Chapter: Chapter 20Raphael’s POV"I'd like to know more about you."I'd come to react to this question as if it were an atomic bomb going off in front of me. I had been spending more and more time with Sienna and less with my lover, Isabella. That was only natural, because Isabella was gradually turning into a nag with each passing day. Her presence was no longer the spark of joy it had once been. The only thing that kept her around was the lingering memory of our past together.But now, with Sienna, she was merely a temporary bandage over a wound that refused to heal.I had come to see her in the same motel. It turned out she worked at a bar not too far away from there.Having her as an occasional fling was fine. In fact, it was far better compared to Isabella’s presence. However, it didn’t seem like Sienna was as excited about this relationship as I was. She kept wanting to deepen it, to stretch what she actually meant to me, but that was completely unnecessary.What we had was good and fun.No compli

Chapter: Chapter 19Isabella’s POVHe looked at me as if I had just demanded his kidney or something of equal value. Then he almost looked disgusted by my suggestion, like he was about to throw up. When he finally pulled himself together, he told me that in no way, shape, or form was I going to be following him to his meetings."But, but... and this is only a hypothetical," I said carefully, "if you are not able to find my sister and somebody else needs to step in and fill her shoes, don’t you think that I should be prepared for that worst-case scenario?"I saw his eyes darken until they were almost completely black, and in that moment something chilling ran through my bones. I could barely move, barely even breathe. But thankfully, it passed over like a short, heavy storm cloud, and by the time it was gone, I could breathe again. He calmed down, sank into his pillow, and said quietly,"I’m going to find her. No matter how long it takes or how much effort I have to put in, I am going to find her. Without

Chapter: Chapter 18Isabella’s POVThere he goes again, smiling from ear to ear. Morning had come, and he had returned from yet another one of his trips meant to find that useless sister of mine. But as always, there was no success. However, instead of coming back with that devastated look on his face, as if the whole world had been crushed on his shoulders, he was smiling from ear to ear. He actually looked quite pleased with himself.So much that when I came to welcome him at the front door, I was worried that he had actually found Athena. I kept looking at his car, searching for a sign of her, but there was nothing. She wasn’t here."You look really happy this morning," I said, and before I could even ask him anything, he reached for me first and hugged me. He even kissed me on the forehead, making my entire face flush with blood. Then he told me he needed to get a shower because he was stinking a lot.Of course, I released him to take care of his personal hygiene, and when he was out of sight, I foun

Chapter: Chapter 17Raphael's POVThis time, I went back to a pack that I had already been to before and settled in a new motel. I did not have to look for her before I found my warming piece for tonight. She was dressed in all the right ways to signal to me that she was available for the taking, and I went over to her. At first, she played hard to get, but when I released my alpha aura, she understood that I was of a much higher ranking than her.She licked her lips and looked up at me."What's an alpha doing in a crummy place like this?" she said, half amused and half curious. But she didn’t need to know about my personal business. If she did, I would have told her that places like this were easier to cover up. If I went to high and well-established hotels that were more fitting of my status, then I would have easily been plucked out. Also, places like that were not easily and readily available with women like her who could follow me to bed in the blink of an eye."My name is Sienna," she said with a s

Chapter: Chapter 16Raphael’s POV"Raphael, please tell me the truth. Are you going to be leaving again today? That would be the second time this week alone. Maybe you should rest just a little bit. I’m so worried for you and the way you’ve been stressing yourself out recently because of my sister. I’m not discouraging you from finding her and making sure that the baby is okay because it’s not like she can be trusted, but still."Isabella had come all the way to the training field, and she had brought with her a basket of fruits, apples to be exact, meant to wiggle her way into the hearts of my men.But from the flat looks on their faces, I doubted it was working as well as she hoped.She first skipped into the training field and called out for everyone’s attention. They straight up ignored her for a couple of minutes. It was only when I cleared my throat to signal to them that what they were doing was rude that they finally acknowledged her.I knew that my warriors had never been fond of Isabella becaus

Chapter: Chapter 89Author's POVWulfrick's hands tightened around his neck, holding him tighter as alarm ran through him. “Tell me everything you know now unless you want to meet your end" he growled at the man, making sure he knew it was a threat.The man didn't flinch back with fear or anything. He stayed where he was forced to and turned to look at Celeste, “I've managed to keep her hidden for a while but now she's too sick, she needs help" he almost begged.Celeste felt her heart soften. She knew that she had to help this kid, she had promised and would keep it. She turned to Wulfrick, “Let him go so he can lead us to her" she told him.Wulfrick wasn't so convinced. Something told him that it couldn't be that easy. Maybe this man was lying, “And if I find out you're lying” he squeezed again, stopping the flow of air, "I'll make sure you never breathe air ever again" and then he let go.The man hit the tree hard, letting out a breath as air rushed into his lungs. “Let me take you to where she is," he

Chapter: Chapter 88Author's POVRagnar kept his eyes open. They couldn't stay closed for a moment. He wanted to make sure he led the Wulfrick team to the wrong spot. He had kept his ears open for any indication of the child.He made contact with Ezekiel, he raised a brow and that was his cue. Ezekiel cleared his throat, “I think it's time we split, if we want to make some progress before night then we should" he said, looking at Wulfrick.Wulfrick looked at Ragnar, recognizing the look on his face. He smiled to himself, he was going to let Ragnar do his job without knowing it. He nodded, “I'm sure we should. Celeste comes with me" he said.His eyes went to the man behind him, the one that snuck his way into Ezekiel's group. There was another in Ragnar and Alexis's group. They wouldn't be so off the hook like they thought. He couldn't wait to catch him in his tracks.Ragnar felt a small relief that Wulfrick hadn't argued about it. He could sense who he was looking for not far away. The instructions had b

Chapter: Chapter 87Author's POV The next day, Wulfrick woke up early. He wanted to find her and finally reveal the truth that he knew. He had seen it in Ragnar's eyes, the truth that he desperately wanted to keep hidden. He would make sure it didn't last long. For so long, he had thought there was a chance to achieve them some other way but it was clear that there wasn't. His brother wouldn't give up no matter what and neither could he. He was outside before the time even reached. Ragnar sat in his office, pacing uncontrollably. All of it was slipping out of his hands - the control he had. It wasn't there anymore. The council were going to embark on this search and that forest held secrets he couldn't let come to light. Through his mind link he called out to Ezekiel. It had been a few days since he had spoken to him. Ezekiel didn't respond even though Ragnar could feel him just on the other side. He felt anger, blinding rage and he wanted to destroy everything. Just then the door opened and his mo

Chapter: Chapter 86Author's POV Celeste decided enough time had passed, it was time to go in search of the child. She had made a promise to the man they had caught in exchange for his information. If she didn't keep to it, she was no different from Ragnar. She decided to talk to Wulfrick, maybe the council would approve if it meant it would reveal a deeper conspiracy. She was sure that there was someone among them, someone determined to destroy the pack. Wulfrick joined her where she had been seated inside the woods on a branch. It used to be a spot that they both shared. It had been their secret hideout and sitting there beside each other reminded them of those days. She turned to look at him when he settled but before she could speak, he did. “Are you going to tell Ragnar?" She knew what he meant and simply sighed. She didn't want to think about that yet. “No, I haven't and I don't plan on doing so any time soon" she told him. Wulfrick shook his head, “You know you can't do that. He's going to f

Chapter: Chapter 85Author's POVA few weeks had gone by quiet, nothing had changed and Celeste's plans hadn't moved forward. She didn't want to remind Wulfrick but she could feel something would happen soon.She was out with Eva, both of them coming from the main village. Wulfrick should have been with them but he had gone for a meeting with Ragnar somewhere else. Celeste remembered Lee then and his threat. She hadn't heard or seen him since his threat and she felt happy about that.Maybe he had forgotten but she knew the truth. There was no way to really forget the death of your brother. No matter how much you wanted to and his sister - she definitely wouldn't forget.On their way back, Eva spoke. “Have you told him yet? About the child?" She asked. She wanted to tell Celeste that she had noticed a slight difference in his behavior but restrained herself.Celeste shook her head. She hadn't and now she knew she had to. Very soon he would realize for himself. She could already feel the bond being formed,

Chapter: Chapter 84Author's POVRagnar left a while later and Wulfrick simply stared at him. He knew what his brother was doing. He wasn't as smart or cunning as he thought and it was almost hilarious - trying to find his way back into her heart.Celeste met his eyes, falling on the bed beside him. The food that he had brought looked delicious and so she began to eat without a word. She had so many other things going through her mind as well.Later that evening, she was dressed in a silver dinner gown that wasn't too showy but was enough to draw attention. Wulfrick couldn't take his eyes off her curves when she prepared. He hated that his brother would be with her all night.He sighed to himself.When Celeste was ready, she turned to look at him, “I'll be sleeping her tonight" she gestured to his room, a smile on her face.Wulfrick felt himself brighten a little at that. He couldn't wait to share a bed with her. “I'll be waiting for you then" he told her, his eyes shining with something that Celeste ref
