Chaos erupted like a gunshot in the dead of night.The moment Dawson lunged forward, a switch flipped, and the warehouse became a battlefield. Shadows moved, bodies collided, and the sharp echo of fists meeting flesh filled the space.I barely had time to react before Ace grabbed my wrist, yanking me back against him. “Stay close,” he murmured, his breath hot against my ear.Valerie’s panicked voice rang out, “This is so much worse than I thought it’d be!”Esther, ever the professional, sidestepped an attacker and slammed her knee into his stomach. “Then stop talking and do something useful.”Julia remained still, her smirk never faltering as the chaos unfolded around her. She was watching—assessing. Like a queen seated on a throne, waiting to see if her kingdom would fall or flourish.Her gaze met mine, and she lifted her chin. “Brielle.” Her voice was calm, almost amused. “I don’t know why you’re fighting so hard. This is inevi

The car ride was suffocating. Not because of the silence—there was none. Valerie was talking non-stop, mostly to herself, mostly about how insane this plan was.“I just wanna go on record,” she was saying, shifting in her seat beside me, “that this is the single most ridiculous, most reckless, most absolutely batshit idea we have ever had.”“Noted,” Esther said, not even looking up from her phone. “For the third time.”Ace sat on my other side, staring out the window like he was miles away. I could feel the tension in him, the tightly coiled energy like he was waiting for something to explode.Dawson, from the driver’s seat, let out a low chuckle. “You say that like we’ve never done anything worse.”Valerie threw her hands up. “Oh, I don’t know, Dawson. Walking into a literal psychopath’s trap with nothing but sheer arrogance and wishful thinking? Yeah, this one definitely takes the cake.”I pressed my hands together in my lap, m

Silence stretched across the room like a noose tightening around my throat. Ace leaned back against the couch, his bruised face unreadable, but I could see the tension in his shoulders. He was pissed. And he was waiting.Waiting for me to speak. To explain.I opened my mouth, but Valerie beat me to it.“What the actual hell happened to your face?” She stormed forward, her voice rising in pitch. “And why the hell does your phone have the same damn text as Brielle’s?”Ace’s gaze flicked to her, then back to me, his expression as calm as ever. Too calm.“You shouldn’t have come.”My fingers clenched into fists. “Yeah, well, I did.”“You shouldn’t have needed to.” His voice was deceptively soft, but the weight behind it made my stomach twist.Esther exhaled sharply. “Okay, let’s not do the whole cryptic mafia thing right now, Ace. Julia knows what we did. She texted Brielle. She texted you. And clearly, you didn’t j

We drove in silence. Valerie kept both hands clenched on the wheel, her fingers practically digging into the leather. Esther lounged in the back seat like she didn’t have a care in the world, scrolling through her phone. I stared out the window, my mind racing. We had done it. The money had been moved. We should’ve been celebrating. But all I felt was unease. “So,” Valerie finally spoke, voice tight. “Where exactly are we going?” “My place,” I answered. “At least until we figure out if anyone’s onto us.” Valerie let out a short, humorless laugh. “Oh, they’re onto us. Did you see that backtrace? We had, what? Three minutes before they found me?” “But they didn’t,” Esther said coolly, still focused on her phone. “You wiped the trace. No one’s knocking down your door.” “Yet,” Valerie muttered under her breath. I turned to her. “Val—” “No.” She shook her

Valerie wasn’t answering her phone.I paced outside her apartment, my nerves on edge as I hit redial. The cold Boston air bit at my skin, but I barely felt it. My fingers tightened around my phone, my patience running thin.Esther’s words replayed in my head: She doesn’t have to lie. She just has to hack a few accounts, move some numbers around, and make sure all the blame falls on the Nightwind’s enemies.Simple. In theory. But Valerie wasn’t built for this. She wasn’t a fighter, wasn’t a criminal. She was the girl who made terrible jokes when she was nervous and wore her heart on her sleeve. And here I was, about to drag her into my mess.The door finally swung open. Valerie stood in the doorway, wearing an oversized hoodie and pajama pants covered in cartoon frogs. Her auburn curls were a tangled mess, her gray eyes half-lidded with exhaustion.“Bri?” she yawned. “It’s—” she glanced at her phone screen “—almost midnight. What’s going o

Santiago's POVKnock knock knock."Yh, come in." He replied sprawled on the bed."Santiago the kids and I need you downstairs." Derrick simply said."What is it about? Besides I thought they were supposed to be in their respective homes sleeping through the day." He said raising himself from the bed."I know right but urgent matters requires urgent attention." Derrick replied with his hands on his waist."Did something go wrong with Henry?" He asked slowly with his eyes down."You know already. He wants to bring the poor boy before the high members and that would be the death of the kid." He explained."Look are you helping us or not?" "And why would you of all people ask me that?" I am obviously still here so I can help in whatever way I can and you are asking me if I am helping or not." Santiago replied looking at Derrick whilst shaking his head."You could have saved us this stress by coming with me immediately I mentioned it instead of us having a discussion." Derrick said and tu

Madison's POV"Is everything okay sweetheart?" Her mother asked when she saw how her countenance had changed."Yes. Everything is fine." She said and continued helping her mother cook."Baby, I know when something is wrong with you and you do not have to hide anything from me afterall I am your mother and we share quite a lot of things with each other." Her mother pressed further."Is this about the search team?" She asked."Yes mom. It is." She said playing with her nails."Do you care to share?" Her mother said and took her by the arm to the dining table so they could sit."Actually, we found the spy at the party." She started."Ohh, my goodness. That is such wonderful news." Her mother said beaming with smiles."But we can not gain easy access to where he thinks Garrett keeps the hybrid. It is in a supposed basement in his chambers and Derrick and the alpha have been against going to look for Dahila since it is a very dangerous thing for unskilled people like us." She continued."

Garrett's POV"Have you seen what Dahila and her little friend have been up to?" He asked his bodyguard who just entered his room."Good morning alpha." The bodyguard greeted."I asked you a question which I was requesting an answer to not some greetings." He replied with a straight face."I am sorry alpha. I have no idea what they have been up to it kare since I have been putting things together for the annihilation day." The bodyguard explained and apologized."And you preparing for the annihilation does not make you create time to see what they have been doing? How then did you make it to becoming my bodyguard if you can not even multitask or place eyes on them?" He asked tilting his head sideways so he could get a better view of the bodyguard whose face was slightly bent towards the floor."I am sorry alpha. I was just carried away but that but I promise to make amends." He apologized."You ruined the fun already, you are no fun." Garrett replied shaking his head negatively."Do n

Madison's POV"Are you kidding me right now?" She said furiously."I should have asked to meet someone whom I do not know besides even if we had met I would still not have agreed to go out with you." She fired at Theodore."What do you take me for? I am just so glad I even did not ask to see you cause how would it have felt and sounded to the ears learning that my boyfriend sold out my best friend?" She questioned laughing softly."Asides the issue you have from home with your mom's illness and that of your dad. You are a psychopath who needs to be treated because no sane person will think the way you do or act like you have been acting."Madison said without holding words back."Calm down Maddie. It will be fine." Abigail said hugging Madison trying to calm her down."Did you use the abduction method for other hybrids too?" Derrick continued his questioning."I have nothing to do with the abduction. My job is just for me to fish out the hybrids and then the rest is left to Garrett."

"Santiago will you just spill the person's name and stop with this suspense." Zayne said frustrated."Calm down Zayne. It is just hard for each and everyone of us to process and say this." Xavier said."Zayne I told you to comport yourself. Jason and Jayden what are you doing guys doing to control what Zayne is doing?" Derrick said flaring up."He is far from the poolside. We made him leave cause of a scenario like this." Jason sighed and replied.Bang bang bang."I think that might be Zayne." Abigail said with fear in her eyes."Santiago open up." Zayne ordered from outside."Do you think it is okay to let him in?" Madison questioned."Let him in since he is there." Derrick responded."Okay." Xavier said looking at everyone's face as he walked towards the door."Leave it. I will get the door." Santiago replied."Alright." Xavier simply said and went back to take a seat."What took you so long to get the door open?" Zayne asked immediately Santiago opened the door."Deliberations from

Abigail's POV"I can not believe people were really going to turn up this much." She said surprised at the number of people present at the party."I am a little surprised but not too surprised. Even students other than those from our class are present, see that girl over there she is not in our class and a few others that I cannot even spot right now." Abigail replied."It still does not matter if they are from our classes or not. When it is time for the game we are going to get everyone's phones off them. We never can tell if the spy had an accomplice among us." Zayne responded to what the girls were discussing through the earbuds."We have got it boss." Madison replied."Everyone seems to be enjoying the party and most especially the pool's view." Abigail said smiling brightly."Yh, it is a great party. Thanks to the organisers and the host." Madison replied."You are most welcome and it is a pleasure to host this party and see to the satisfaction of our guests." Derrick replied swe

I gave the faces around the huge dining table another once over and quickly dipped my head down.They were all judging eyes. Not even one had a friendly look.I knew marrying into an elite family like the Howard's,even though it was a fake marriage, was going to be everything intimidating but I didn't expect everybody in the room looking at me like I had two heads. Even the older women.Especially the older women."So dear, what do you do for a living?" A middle aged woman asked while slicing a piece of meat on her plate. I recognized her as one of Asher's paternal aunts, Loretta.When Asher told me we were going to have dinner with his family two days ago, I started panicking. And when his driver came over to my apartment to take me to the boutique to buy new clothes , per Asher's orders, I almost fainted when I saw the price tag of one of the dresses. If I added the pay I got from all my part time jobs for ten years, they still would not buy the dress. That further gave me more k

When Xander told me he had forwarded my email address to his friend, now my business partner, so he could send the contract to me and we could arrange to meet. I immediately got nervous because I pictured that being the multi billionaire that Xander's friend was, he would certainly want to meet in a five star restaurant and that thought alone made me anxious.Not that I had anything against five star restaurant, it was just that I'd feel out of place. Like I don't belong there. Which I certainly don't.But when a mail notification popped up on my phone, boy was I wrong.I inclined my neck to have a better view of the restaurant. *Mamma Mia Eats*This is my second time spelling out the name of the restaurant where I was supposed to meet my future contract husband, and it still made me cringe.What the fuck was "Mamma Mia Eats?"Then the overthinking kicked in. Was Xander's billionaire friend a weirdo? I never got the full details of who his friend was, what he looked like,how old h

" Ana! "Startled, I looked up at my boss, Xander, and raised an eyebrow questioningly." I called you severally but you didn't hear. Why are you so out of it today? You even look so tired. " Xander said worriedly.I gave him a weak smile, " I'm fine. Just in my thoughts.""Are you sure? It's not about your creditors, right? " He mentioned carefully.My eyes widened slightly, " What? No. No, it's not about them. I'm fine really."Xander shrugged and headed to the kitchen.Sweet Tooth was a bakery shop where I did one of my part-time jobs as a waitress.It was not really big, although they had their busy days, like on weekends.Maybe because of the sweet, savoring smell of pastries and cakes being baked in the kitchen.Or because of the warm, cozy feeling I always got whenever I stepped into the shop.Or probably because of the owner, Xander, the nicest boss I've ever had.I just really loved Sweet Tooth. It felt like home there and my time there was like a breath of fresh air.Xander

The warm breeze of the summer night hit my face, flipping my hair in various directions as I walked home. My fourth shift of the day just ended and it was a quarter past ten. I was beyond exhausted and that was no surprise considering I currently had four part-time jobs that I was juggling in a day. It was extremely hard to make ends meet, and even harder being an orphan. My total pay from the four part-time jobs I was doing was not even near enough to cover all the bills. It had been months since we turned on the heater in the apartment, because I was unable to pay the bills, luckily for us, it was summer, but I would have to work extra hard to pay the heating bills because summer was almost over. I needed to find more jobs.Better paying ones.Not that I had vast options though.My highest academic qualification was my high school diploma.My phone dinged, indicating a text notification.I swiped out my phone from my worn-out purse, and my older sister, Diane's name displayed on
