CHAPTER 138: DIANA'S GAMES

CATHERINE:

I knew I shouldn't be sitting at my desk daydreaming about seeing Jordan after work. I had a job to do, and my mother was lying in a hospital bed recovering from surgery. She needed to focus more on helping her recover. Besides, Jordan was unpredictable. He could be sweet and caring this moment, then cold and distant the next. But no matter how hard I tried to focus on the spreadsheets in front of me, my mind kept drifting back to the way he held me on tha

  • ALPHA JORDAN'S DARK OBSESSION    JORDAN'S PAST

    CHAPTER 141: JORDAN'S PAST CATHERINE:“Did I say something wrong?”They both shook their heads. “It’s just that Alpha hasn’t had someone cook in this kitchen like this since Arcie died,” the younger one said softly.I paused, the spoon mid-air. “Arcie? Was that his... mate?”“His late mate,” the older woman corrected, her voice dropping to a low hiss. “After she passed, the Alpha changed. He stopped dating. He stopped believing in love or the mate bond. He only kept... sex slaves. Just to satisfy his sexual urges.”My stomach did a slow roll. “Sex slaves?”The younger maid leaned in, her eyes wide with a mix of pity and warning. “Sex slaves, miss. That’s the truth of it. And they were all rogues. Every single one of them. His men used to hunt rogues. They usually brought back their catch here. The male ones get slaughtered like animals immediately, and the female ones are kept as sex slaves. He’d pick them up from the fringes, use them until he grew bored, and then...”She stopped, l

  • ALPHA JORDAN'S DARK OBSESSION    DID I SAY SOMETHING WRONG?

    CHAPTER 140: DID I SAY SOMETHING WRONG?CATHERINE'S POV:The engine of Jordan’s sleek black sedan hummed low, a predatory sound that matched the man sitting next to me. We were leaving the sterile white walls of the hospital behind, but the air inside the car felt just as heavy.I kept my eyes glued to the window, watching the city lights blur into the dark, towering trees that lined the private road to his estate. I was still trying to decide if it was morally okay to spend the night at my boss's place. Especially when he has already said he was going to show his talents tonight. Jordan wasn’t just a guy with money and power; he was something... else. Someone I wasn't sure I could handle. Sigh.“You’re thinking too loud, Catherine,” Jordan said. His voice was like velvet over gravel.I didn’t look at him. “Hard not to. My life flipped upside down in forty-eight hours. I almost lost the only family I've got. And right now, I don't know which direction my life is heading.”“I’m tellin

    CHAPTER 139: PROMISE YOU WON'T HURT MY DAUGHTER JORDAN:As I gripped the steering wheel of the SUV, the leather felt smooth under my palms as I navigated the evening traffic toward St. Jude’s Memorial. Catherine was sitting in the passenger seat, quiet for once, I ignored her as she typed on her phone. She was probably texting someone. probably still buzzing from that stunt Diana pulled at the office. My mind was a mess, honestly. It’s been a straight-up war in my head for the last two days, ever since we touched down from New York. From my mom's drama, to Catherine's Mom falling from the stairs and getting hospitalized. Then Catherine made everything worse when she turned to me and asked for the same opportunity she had so vehemently rejected. I’m not gonna lie—I was heated at first. In New York, she acted like I was some kind of monster for suggesting she carry my pup and get paid for it. She called me arrogant, said I looked down on her, and acted like her pride was worth more t

But no matter how hard I tried to focus on the spreadsheets in front of me, my mind kept drifting back to the way he held me on that desk. The way his voice dropped when he told me he was gonna show me his "talents." It made my skin itch in a way I couldn't explain.I was so worked up that I didn't even wait for five o'clock to hit before I grabbed my phone. I called my official driver and told him not to bother coming to pick me up. I was rolling the dice on Jordan keeping his word.At five on the dot, I packed my bag and headed for the top floor. My heart was thumping against my ribs like a drum. I reached his office door

    CHAPTER 137: YOU'RE SOAKED FOR ME, KITTY CAT CATHERINE:My official driver came to St. Jude's Memorial Hospital to pick me up before eight but I wasn't ready. My Mom had only just been wheeled out of the surgery room. I needed to see her face. I needed to be sure she was okay before I left for work. So by the time we pulled into the TitanLink parking lot, the sun was already up. I felt like a zombie walking through the lobby—my eyes were scratchy from staying up all night at the hospital, but my heart was light. My mom’s surgery had been a total success. The doctors said she pulled through like a champ, and seeing her breathing easy in that recovery room was worth every second of exhaustion.But then I checked my watch. 9:00 AM.I was an hour late. On my first full day back after a suspension. My stomach dropped. I didn't even go to my own desk; I headed straight for the top floor. I had to explain myself. I had to tell Jordan why I wasn't at my post, and maybe, if I found the cour

    CHAPTER 136: WHO DO YOU THINK WOULD DO THIS?CATHERINE:I stepped out of the doctor's office, stood in the hallway and dialled Zoe's number, my fingers shaking so hard I almost dropped it on the linoleum floor. Zoe picked up on the second ring."Zoe," I whispered, my voice sounding like it was coming from a mile away. "An anonymous person just paid for the whole thing. The surgery, the room, everything. Fifty thousand bucks, Zoe. In full.""What?" Zoe shrieked on the other end. "For real? No way!""I’m short of words, Zoe. I’m literally standing outside the doctor's office shaking.""I told you everything would be alright, Cat! I told you your Mom will be fine!" Zoe sounded like she was about to start dancing through the phone."I'm so happy, I feel like I can finally breathe again," I said, leaning against the cold wall for support. Then, I lowered my voice. "Zoe... who do you think would do this? I mean, who just drops fifty grand like it's pocket change?"Zoe let out a loud, dramat
