ANNABELI was sitting in the back seat of the car, staring out through the window when my phone suddenly started ringing.I looked at the screen.Cherry.“What is it?” I asked immediately I picked.There was a short silence before Cherry spoke.“Everything is going according to plan.”I relaxed slightly. “And Mirabel?”“She’s playing her role perfectly.”I smiled coldly.Good.That was exactly what I wanted to hear.“And Raymond?” I asked.Cherry hesitated.“He has been spending more time with her lately.”My smile disappeared.“What do you mean, spending more time with her?”“They have been going out together. Dinner. Business events. Parties. He has also been asking her to spend more time with him.”I tightened my grip around the phone.“Is he suspicious?”“No. I don't think so. But…” Cherry paused. “She is trying her to be you burn still she doesn't behave exactly like you.”I rolled my eyes.“Of course. She is a thief pretending to be me. What did you expect?”Cherry didn't answer

I stared at the figure in front of me. My hand was still gripping the small weapon hidden beneath my cloth. “Long time no see, Slient Whisper.” “Reveal yourself.” I commanded. The person laughed softly. “You're still as stubborn as ever.” I knew that voice but I couldn't place the face. The person stepped closer and I finally recognized him. My Eyes widened. “Marcus?” He threw his hands up and smiled. “Yep, that's me.” I lowered my hands slightly. Marcus has been one of the senior members of the house of hades. I've worked with him on several operations before my arrest but I haven't seen him since I went to prison. “What are you doing here?..... I mean I wasn't expecting to meet you here.” The house of hades usually operates on a no barrier contact mission. I'm supposed to leave the diamond in the location and someone else will pick it up without us meeting each other. “You know why I'm here.” He glanced at my bag. I tightened the grip on my bag. “You were sent to colle

I stared at Raymond for a few seconds. He stood at my front,one hand resting on the doorframe,his eyes moving from my face to the bag hanging on my shoulder. “Where are you off to?” I swallowed hard thinking about the quickest lie to give him. Of course I can't tell him I was off to deliver his diamond I stole from him. “I have somewhere to go”. I lied “Where?” He questioned “It's personal.” He frowned. “Personal?” “Yes.” “So you don't want to tell..” he said and his eyes landed on my bag again. “What's inside?” He asked pointing at the bag My heart nearly stopped at that moment. “Clothes.” He reached for the bag and I quickly pulled away. “Don't touch my bag.” He stopped and narrowed his eyes slightly. “Relax, I'm not going to steal from you.” I forced a dry laugh. “You know we never can tell who's a thief theses days.” “Fairs.” He laughed softly and stepped closer, we were just a few inches apart. His scent filled my nostrils. “Anabel…” “Raymond I have some

I stared at the message like what felt like forever. The house of hades wants the diamond by noon. At this point getting the diamond out of the mansion is going to be harder than stealing it. Raymond has increased the security and as of right now everyone in the house is a potential suspect. Including me. I sighed. “How do I go about it now?” “I think I should move it now.” I said walking towards the vase,but I stopped myself. No. Moving it now could be stupid. What if someone is secretly watching. I need to wait for the right time. I returned to my bed and sat down on it. I've done this countless times but somehow, hiding one Diamond felt more difficult than them all. “This shit is crazy.” I laid back on the bed still thinking about what to do when I heard footsteps approaching my door. I sat upright immediately. A knock followed. “Miss Annabel?” It was one of the Mansion's security guards. “Yes?” I stood up and walked towards the door. “Mr Raymond asked us to searc

The house of hades wants the diamond by 12 tomorrow. I slowly lowered my phone and looked at the diamond on my bed. I picked it up and turned it around my hand. Usually, I'm supposed to be so excited about this but there's this tight feeling in my chest. Raymond's face kept appearing in my mind. The pain in his eyes and how his tone changed when he talked about his father. I frowned. “Why am I thinking like this?’ I placed the diamond on the bed “He is Raymond so I don't give a flying fuck.” The same Raymond who had sent me to prison. I smiled “Exactly so why should I care?” But deep down I know I feel guilty after he told me the story of how his father entrusted the Diamond in his care. Just a little. I quickly pushed the thought away, I have a mission to complete. The house of hades is waiting for this diamond and I'm not going to lose my position because I developed sympathy for that arrogant Raymond. I stood up and walked around the room. I need to find the safest w

I stared at Raymond, pretending to shocked “I was robbed Anabelle” For a moment I almost smiled at his pitiful expression. Of course I knew he was robbed because I was the one who robbed him. I was the one that sneaked into his vault and stole the fucking Diamond. I didn't know Raymond could sound this pitiful. I almost chuckle at the thought. And now I have to pretend to be shocked. “Oh my God” my eyes widened. “Was that what the noise was about? I was sleeping when I heard the noise and I was wondering what the noise was all about.” He nodded “The neon diamond is gone” I placed a hand over my mouth “How?? I thought it was under maximum security,how could they possibly get through?” “A woman stole it” My heart skipped. “A woman?” “Yes, a woman” he said as he walked further into my room, my heart started beating faster because the same diamond he's talking about is in the same room. As I looked at him, he didn't look like the same Raymond I knew. It looks like he l

Lorenzo's pov I watched in horror, as Bridget trembling in the ground, her soul slowly slipping out of her body. I screamed and tears blurred my eyes as I cradled my sister's lifeless body, this is the second person I will be losing to Teagan today. Anger surged in me at the thought of it, he's going to pay for their lives. I stood up and gave a fierce roar and raced into the palace to find Teagan. I must find him, I vowed, and when I do he's going to pay for the lives he took. As I ran, my heart was heavy with rage and grief at the same time, I could feel the rage surging through me. Teagan will pay for what he has done. He has awakened a beast. My feet echoed off as I pounded down the palace corridor, my eyes blazing with fury. I could smell Teagan, a faint scent but unmistakable, it led me deeper into the palace walls. My power surged through me, fueling my strength and speed as his scent grew thicker. Then I hear footsteps ahead growing fainter. I followed the soun

Teagan's pov I snarled as I charged towards my father, I knew I was in for the fight of my life. Our blades clashed, sparks flew as we exchanged blow after blow I knew I was no match for him but I was not going to give up either. "I don't understand why you won't die at once, why must you come back" I said to him as our swords clashed. He landed a solid kick to my stomach and I fell and rolled on the ground. "You are no match for me, Teagan," he said and spat "You are meant to be the Alpha it's your birthright but sending people to kill your own father so you can be the Alpha is something else, you are just so desperate". I grunted, and quickly stood back up," My birthright?, oh you think I don't know how you and that bitch Lorenzo have been planning to give that birthright away". Our swords clashed, "First you stole my mate, I let that slide and you still expect me to sit while you take my birthright". He gave me a hard punch to my jaw, which made me stumble back, "stol

Lorenzo's pov The night we've been nervously waiting for has arrived, the moon was shining bright in the sky as we prepared to move to the palm tree to wait for Rizzo as planned. As we were waiting for Rizzo's arrival, I was lost in my thoughts, I stared at my barely visible baby bump and thought about everything that led us here. I thought about everything that I'd gone through and wondered what the outcome of this battle was going to be and what the future holds for us. I have always been confident about my fighting skills but suddenly felt scared about this battle. I looked at Kai, Vera, and Alex and I could see they were lost in thoughts also. Not so long after that Rizzo finally made his way towards us. "Ready?", I asked Rizzo my voice barely audible, after waiting for him for what seemed like an eternity. He nodded in response "Let's move out" then signaled to his men hiding in the nearby bushes. I Ied my team to the east gate, our sword drawn. We had to move fast

Kai's pov The following night, Vera and Alex met Rizzo, Lorenzo, and I met up again in Rizzo's living room to go over the plan but this time around with a sense of urgency and focus. "Okay let's go over this again," Alex said with a sharp voice. "Alpha Kai's team will take out the guards at the main entrance of the palace. Lorenzo's team will make an entrance through the east gate and take all the guards there down. After the guards are clear then I and my team will come in". We all nodded in response, our face set with determination and passion. What's the timeline? Vera asked "The feast is starting at night and I will have to be there" Rizzo replied "Once is midnight I will sneak out of the feast and meet you guys at the old palm tree and from there we will move into positions, and then we will make our moves". We went over the plan a few more times making sure everyone took note of their move and timing. As we finished the meeting, I felt fulfilled and grateful to m

Kai's pov We moved swiftly through the shadows, the moon cast its glow over the pack territory. I scanned the surroundings it was just how I remembered. The air was thick with a familiar scent, I felt a thrill of mixed feelings as Lorenzo and I slipped past the guards and made our way into the pack disguised as traders. I scanned everywhere to look for Alex then suddenly a dark figure emerged from the darkness. It was Alex, "I've been waiting for you" his voice was low and urgent", there's been a last-minute change of plan, Meet us at Rizzo's place" and with that he walked away. My heart skipped a beat this was unexpected, we had planned to make move tonight, I looked at Lorenzo and she rolled her eyeball. My mind was racing with different questions, why weren't they sticking with the original plan, why the last-minute change? As we walked to Rizzo's place "I hope Rizzo isn't trying to back out now cause I don't trust him" Lorenzo mumbled Our senses were on high alert as

Lorenzo's pov "Lorenzo, Alpha Kai" Vera said with her eyes widened and she covered her mouth with her hands. Tears gathered at the corner of her eyes," I knew it, I knew you were still alive, I could still feel you around" she said with a low steady voice "I miss you witch", I said laughing, "I was so glad I was still able to reach you through this portal "I waited, days, weeks, months for you to reach out to me through it but later gave up since I saw no message," Vera said still shocked. She kept exchanging gazes between Kai and me as if to confirm if it wasn't a dream. I gave her details about everything that happened to us, from meeting Tina to Kai finding me, and the attack in the forest, I told her everything without missing any details. "Vera, we need your help, Kai and I want to come back to take our place, but we want to know the situation over there and make a proper plan before doing that," I said with my voice barely audible. Kai nodded in agreement"We want
