Chapter: At the BarAlpha Killian sighed then rested his head on his palms, his elbows on the desk. He was exhausted, not physically but emotionally. When he saw Kenzie for the first time in front of his office, the wave of electricity he felt was overwhelming. It was something he had never felt before. His knees were going to give up on him but fortunately for him, she left and he regained himself. As she left, he wanted so badly to run after her and claim her, he wanted to tell her not to ever leave him and wrap his arms around her and leave his scent all over her but he couldn't do any of it because Kenzie was a human. There's a law governing every pack to ensure that their identity is secured and they are all safe and that law is if any of them have a human mate, they must reject her immediately. The humans cannot feel the mating bond like they do hence their love is unrequited. It was too risky to make the humans fall for them and then tell them they were werewolves, the humans might not accept

Chapter: More!Kenzie dunk the entire glass of alcohol down her throat immediately the glass was set in front of her. "More!" She shouted then slammed the glass on the table in front of her, fortunately, the glass didn't break but it earned her a lot of stares from still sobbed people trying to enjoy their evening. A young man, in a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up which exposed his muscles and had a lot of women at the bar swooning over him, he walked over to Kenzie behind the counter with a bottle of whiskey. "I mean, I know they didn't want to give me a chance in the first place but…" Kenzie trailed off with a slur in her words. The bartender pours her drink and then closes the bottle back. "But what?" The bartender asked, encouraging her to speak further, Kenzie blinked continuously as she struggled to keep her eyes open. "But what they did was too much! Why are they putting on a show like that? It's an interview to be a bodyguard!" She continued, her voice was very loud and the low m

Chapter: Beauty and the BeastAlpha Killian buried himself under the pile of paperwork on his desk but after a few hours, he was tired of going through and left his office. He went to the training room where he watched his bodyguards practice on treadmills, fighting rings, weight lifting, and sacks. It was a vast space with gym equipment and sweaty people. Gunshots can be heard close by and it's because the room beside this is a shooting range. "Alpha Killian, you requested for me?" Matthias, Alpha Killian's beta asked as soon as he was inches away from him. He followed Killian's eyes to the people training. "So I want to know how the new trainees are doing?" Killian said, still looking ahead. "They are doing great, even better than expected. They have a lot of zeal." Matthias responded and then pointed at five different people busy training. "They are the new trainees, two are at the shooting range. They are all around the age of 20 to 22." Killian carefully observed the five people Matthias had pointed out,

Chapter: The suffocating windThe wind blew angrily as it began to pour, air was suffocating to a particular someone. The noise from the downpour overshadowed all the chatters, sniffles, and sobs in the gloomy environment.A woman, in her mid-thirties, dressed in a black blouse and loose pants walked closer to Kenzie and took the umbrella she was holding, and opened it. She covered herself and Kenzie with it. "Stay under cover, baby." Kenzie's mother, Mrs. Whitney Davison instructed her, her voice was low and it was almost inaudible."My condolences." Someone walked to Kenzie and said softly as she patted Kenzie's back. She turned to Mrs. Davison and repeated her words. Mrs. Davison nodded but Kenzie remained silent, her gaze never let the tombstone in front of her. Down here it was written, 'In loving memory, Mr Andrew Davison. A kind and loving husband and father.' A tear rolled down Kenzie's cheek, her eyes were dark and seemed to have shrunk, her cheeks were bright red and her lips were wet but it wasn't lip

Chapter: 148JONATHAN POV"She's right, Boss."The words left my mouth between heavy breaths as I finally reached the suite.Honestly, I deserved a raise.A very large raise.Possibly several raises.Do you know how difficult it is to wake up, discover your boss has apparently kidnapped his wife again, and then rush across an island trying to prevent a family disaster before breakfast?My life was not normal.The moment I stepped through the doorway, Devon closed his eyes.That was never a good sign.Usually it meant he was either about to fire me or pretend he wasn't responsible for whatever insanity had occurred."Jonathan."The way he said my name made it sound like I had personally offended his ancestors.I straightened and tried to regain what little dignity I had left after nearly collapsing from exhaustion."Why did you rush over here?" he demanded. "I didn't want you here. That's why I only told you this morning."I stared at him.The man had transported his sleeping wife to an island with

Chapter: 147DEVON POV"She's right, Boss."The familiar voice made me close my eyes.Of course.Of course he had come.I turned toward the doorway and found Jonathan standing there, bent over and panting heavily as though he had sprinted across the entire island to get here.His shirt was wrinkled.His hair looked like he had fought a hurricane and lost.Honestly, he looked ridiculous."Jonathan."The man had the decency to look slightly guilty.Only slightly."Why did you rush over here?" I demanded. "I didn't want you here. That's why I only told you this morning."Jonathan straightened immediately."Well, you shouldn't have told me at all!"He pointed at me dramatically."Heck, you shouldn't have hired me as your secretary! My life would have been so much better."I folded my arms."You think I make your life difficult?""I don't think so, Boss."He looked me dead in the eye."It's a fact."The betrayal.The disrespect.The audacity.I shook my head."Well, why don't I make your life easier?

Chapter: 146STELLA POV"She's right, Boss."A familiar voice suddenly spoke from behind us.I turned toward the doorway and found Jonathan standing there, bent over slightly with his hands on his knees as he struggled to catch his breath.His shirt was wrinkled, his hair was a mess, and he looked as though he had run a marathon just to get here.For the first time since waking up, I felt a tiny bit relieved."Jonathan?""Why did you rush over here?" Devon demanded. "I didn't want you here. That's why I only told you this morning!"Jonathan straightened up and pointed accusingly at him."Well, you shouldn't have told me at all! Heck, you shouldn't have hired me as your secretary! My life would have been so much better!"Despite my anger, I almost laughed.Almost.Devon folded his arms."You think I make your life difficult?""I don't think so, Boss. It's a fact."I could practically see Devon grinding his teeth."Well, why don't I make it easier? You're fired."Jonathan blinked."Again?""Now leav

Chapter: 145STELLA POVI stared at him in disbelief after slapping him.My hand was still raised in the air from the impact.For several seconds, I couldn't even process what had just happened.Not the slap.Not the beach.Not the fact that I had somehow fallen asleep in my hotel room and woken up in an entirely different location.No.What I couldn't process was Devon himself.How did this man's brain work?How could someone be so intelligent in business and yet so catastrophically stupid in every other aspect of life?I slowly lowered my hand."Devon."My voice was cold.Dangerously cold."Show me where my children are."He opened his mouth."And take us home."His mouth immediately closed again.Good.I folded my arms tightly across my chest and stared at the floor for a moment, trying to keep my emotions under control.The anger surging through me was overwhelming.Every time I thought about what he had done, it grew worse.How could he possibly think this was acceptable?How could he honestl

Chapter: 144STELLA POV"Hello, beautiful."The familiar voice dragged me out of sleep.My eyes fluttered open slowly, and for several seconds I simply stared ahead in confusion, trying to understand why the room looked unfamiliar.Bright sunlight poured through massive floor-to-ceiling windows, flooding the room with golden light.I blinked several times.Then my gaze landed on the man sitting comfortably on a couch nearby."Devon?"My brows immediately furrowed.What was he doing here?I pushed myself upright so quickly that the blankets slid down into my lap."What are you doing here?"My voice came out rough and sleepy.Devon looked entirely too relaxed for someone who had no business being in my room.Something felt wrong.Very wrong.I glanced around.The confusion I initially felt quickly turned into alarm.This wasn't my hotel room.The furniture was different.The layout was different.Everything was different."Devon..."I threw the blankets aside and climbed out of bed.My heart started

Chapter: 143DEVON POV"Hello, beautiful."The words left my mouth the moment Stella's eyes began to flutter open.For a few seconds, she looked completely disoriented, her gaze unfocused as she adjusted to the bright morning sunlight pouring through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the suite.Then her eyes landed on me.Immediately, confusion appeared on her face."Devon?"Her brows furrowed deeply.She pushed herself upright in bed so quickly that the blankets pooled around her waist."What are you doing here?"Her voice was still rough from sleep, soft and husky in a way that I found ridiculously adorable.She looked around the room.Then around again.The confusion rapidly transformed into alarm."Devon..."She swung her legs off the bed and stood.Her eyes widened."This isn't my hotel."I remained seated on the couch, trying very hard to look calm."Correct.""Where are we?"She turned toward me."Devon!"The sleepiness had completely disappeared from her voice now.Unfortunately.Because her
