LOGINCHAPTER 196: YOU AREN'T SAFE IN THAT HOUSE, CATHERINE CATHERINE:The living room felt like a graveyard after Seraphina the witch finally gathered her charcoal shawls and vanished into the night. My heart was still beating fast against my ribs like it wanted to escape from my chest. The air was thick with the scent of burnt herbs and the lingering vibration of that woman’s scratchy voice.Jordan was staring straight at his mother, his eyes flashing a dangerous shade of amber. "Did you really do it, Mom?" he asked, his voice low and vibrating with a growl. "Did you truly pay that witch to lay a curse on my wife?"Luna Elizabeth didn't look bothered. She smoothed down her silk dress, looking as cool as an ice cube. "That woman is delusional, Jordan," she said, waving a hand like she was brushing off a fly. "She has no idea what she’s talking about. I brought her here to unravel the mystery behind that mysterious attack on you. How was I supposed to know she had gone mad? If she’s making
CHAPTER 195: SHE'S A DESCENDANT OF THE GODDESS CATHERINE:Jordan had stopped answering his mother’s calls an hour ago. In fact, he had switched it off and slammed it down on the kitchen counter. His face was as hard as stone, but that didn’t stop Luna Elizabeth. Since she couldn’t get through to her son, she started blowing up my phone.I was done making dinner and we were at the dining table eating but each time the screen lit up with her name, my stomach would flip in fear. Eventually I decided to pick up and when I did, her voice came through like an angry storm. She was screaming that heaven would fall if Jordan and I didn't get back to the mansion immediately."The witch is here, Catherine!" she shrieked through the speaker. "I can’t afford to offend her. If you two don't get back here right now, she might cast a spell on this entire family and it’ll be your fault!"I looked at Jordan, my heart hammering. I didn't want any more trouble. "Jordan, please," I begged, reaching out t
CHAPTER 194: GET HER OUT OF MY HOUSE JORDAN:Making love to my wife while she was trying to fix dinner was easily one of the best feelings I’ve ever had. There was something about the normalcy of the kitchen mixed with the raw hunger of the mate bond that just hit different. I loved the way she whimpered the second I cupped her breasts from behind, catching her totally off guard. I loved the way her breath hitched when I bent her over that cold marble counter, making her lean forward while I pushed into her wet, juicy cunt.I filled her up completely, and I could feel her pussy gripping my dick tight, like she never wanted to let go. I started to thrust gradually at first, taking my time. The scent of fresh vegetables was filling the room, mixing with the musky, sweet scent of our skin. The sound of my flesh slapping against hers started getting into my head, driving my wolf, Spark, absolutely wild.I was thrusting hard now, my hands gripping her waist so tight my knuckles were start
CHAPTER 193: THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT CATHERINE:Melvin drove us away from the mansion and straight into the heart of the city. It was about a thirty-minute drive, and every mile felt like a weight lifting off my shoulders. Because I didn't take Luna Elizabeth’s threat very lightly. We pulled up to a high-end skyscraper, and Jordan led me up to a penthouse that sat right at the very top.The moment the doors opened, I gasped. It was gorgeous. The living room had these floor-to-ceiling windows that looked out over the entire skyline of Texas, the city lights twinkling like fallen stars. The floors were polished dark wood, and the furniture was all cream leather and chrome. It was tastefully furnished and so peaceful—a sharp contrast to the mansion, which always felt like it was buzzing with drama and bad energy. Here, the only sound was the faint hum of the city way below us."This is one of my properties. And we’re spending the night here," Jordan said, tossing his keys
CHAPTER 192: I'LL HAVE THE WITCH CAST A SPELL ON YOUCATHERINE:The walk from Jordan’s office to the private elevator felt like a victory lap, but my heart was racing for all the wrong reasons. After Jordan told me we should just go home, I followed him out, my heels clicking on the marble floor. I should’ve been happy, Diana was in handcuffs and I had my husband back, but I already knew trouble was waiting for us at the mansion.Luna Elizabeth was going to be beyond pissed. Jordan had just arrested her hand-picked candidate for a daughter-in-law, and I knew exactly who she was going to blame. Me. To her, I was just the "rogue" who had bewitched her son, and today was only going to make her hate me more.We stepped into the private elevator, the doors sliding shut with a quiet hiss. Jordan leaned against the mirrored wall, looking exhausted. When we reached the underground parking lot, Melvin was already there. The engine of the black SUV was humming, the sleek metal shining under the
CHAPTER 191: MISS CANE, YOU'RE UNDER ARREST JORDAN:“You can't fire me, Jordan, Only Luna Elizabeth has the right to fire me. She was the one who employed me here, and she's the only one who can tell me to leave.”To tell you the truth, I was stunned hearing Diana talk to me like that in my wife's presence. Silence fell over the office, Catherine’s eyes locked on mine. She was equally shocked. Diana stood there with her chin tilted up, looking at me like she was the one holding the deck of cards. When she told me I couldn't fire her—that only my mother had that power—I saw the game she was playing. She probably expected me to get all flustered and call Luna Elizabeth to complain, or maybe she thought I’d lose my cool to impress Catherine.I knew she was baiting me. She wanted me to react, maybe even get physical so she could pretend to faint, scream "Alpha abuse," and then sue the company for every dime I had. She was looking for trouble, but I wasn't gonna give her the satisfaction
CHAPTER 36: CONFIDING ON ZOECATHERINE:I opened my eyes and winced as my head pounded like someone hit me with a hammer in my sleep. My eyes felt heavy, my throat dry, and honestly… I could tell I barely slept through the night. The day had broken but I didn't bother to get out of bed. So I just
CHAPTER 38: FLOWER SHOP SCENECATHERINE:I dropped my phone on the bed and inhaled deeply.My life was really turning upside down.Then suddenly…A knock came at my door.I didn’t even bother saying “come in,” because it wasn’t locked, and my Mom was the only one in the house with me. The door push
CHAPTER 41: AS COLD AS ALWAYS CATHERINEMy Mom and I came back home quite late last night. By the time we left the cemetery, the moon was already glowing. It was quite an experience and we promised to visit Dad as often as we could.I went to bed as soon as we came back because I was exhausted and
CHAPTER 39: VISITING MY DAD'S GRAVE CATHERINE:We stepped out of the store, got a cab, and headed toward the cemetery. The streets grew quieter as we left town, heading toward the wide open field where the headstones of all werewolves in vegas sat in neat rows.The closer we got, the heavier my ch
