LOGINBaxter:Madeline had left the office with Livia right in front of me.Before she left, she hinted that I had some kind of history with the woman in the basement, and my mind immediately started reeling.“I need to know more about Kaylee,” I insisted to my wolf.It wasn’t that I was interested because I wanted to know whether Kaylee and I had ever been romantically involved.I mean, the way Madeline had bluntly hinted at it, that seemed like a possibility, and I did not want that.So I wanted my wolf to confirm whether we had done something as disgusting as cheating on Madeline.But my wolf remained silent, his mouth completely zipped.“Come on, Axe. Tell me at least a little bit. What do we know about Kaylee?” I asked, getting angry with him.After a few minutes of silence, Axe let out a deep breath and finally uttered, “We had an affair with her.”The minute I heard that, I dropped into the chair and wrapped my hands around my head.I felt like crushing my skull at that moment.Danie
Madeline:I noticed that she had dropped my bag onto the ground and was now clutching the strap of her own bag, twisting it around in her fist.I kept watching her. She looked so anxious.“Livia, I’m not going to hurt you. You just need to tell me, do you have a wolf?” I asked, trying to approach her so I could place my hand on her shoulder, but she sidestepped, making me pull my hand back.“I need to go home, please,” she requested again, this time more sternly.“Mommy!”The sudden interruption came from my children, who had returned with their babysitters.“Yeah, we’re here,” Livia called out.I stared at her, shocked by how desperately she was trying to get away from me.And she knew exactly what she had done.She had called out to my children so they would come to me and keep me occupied.And that was exactly what happened.Gina and Elara immediately rushed into the hallway and ran toward me, hugging me and telling me everything they had done at the playground and how many friends
Madeline:“Why would you want to go back there? They’re gonna throw you in prison anyway,” I said as I shrugged my shoulders, drumming my fingers on the table.She noticed my hands and then looked at me.“Well, is this any less of a prison?” she commented, grinding her teeth.“She’s got a good point,” I said as I snapped my fingers and got up from the chair.“You know, Kaylee, I thought about punishing you, torturing you every day.”As I started to speak, I heard her scoff at me.“What changed?” she commented.I walked up to her and crouched down in front of her.“That’s bold of you to assume I changed my mind.” I let out a little laugh, reaching toward her to move a strand of hair away from her face.She didn’t dare slap my hand away.“But I decided that instead of giving you physical pain, I’ll give you mental abuse,” I mumbled softly, watching her eyes start to water with anger.Then I gave her a little slap on the cheek while she tried to pull her face away.I got up and walked aw
Madeline:“She’s in the guest house on the other side of the garden,” I said to her as I headed toward the basement.I was wearing black pants, a white shirt, and a black blazer for the office. I had slipped my keys into my pants pocket.Livia stood beside me, carrying her own bag and the one she had picked up for me from the couch.“Is she bothering you?” Livia questioned.I turned my head toward her and gawked at her.She looked at me and immediately tucked her hair behind her ear.“What is it?” she asked, kind of shying away.“You know, in a very twisted way, you remind me of my younger self, even though we’re the same age. That’s how innocent and naive I used to look before everything happened,” I commented, watching her narrow her eyes slightly as if she were trying to figure out whether it was a compliment.I opened the basement door and walked downstairs.My heels clicked against each step until I finally reached the floor.My fists automatically clenched the minute she came i
Madeline:“I think the monster just realized the human world is much safer than the werewolf land, and he just wanted to help.” She spoke very softly, almost eerily, making me frown at her.“Huh,” I uttered to myself.“Anyway, would you like to come with me to see Kaylee?” I asked her.“Yeah, sure,” she replied. “Have you known Kaylee for a long time?” she asked as she gathered her files and put them in her bag.That was when the door opened and Baxter marched in, wearing all black and looking so fucking handsome that I could just throw him on the table and do him right here, but I wouldn’t do that.He looked at me and then gestured for the new manager to wait for him outside.“What’s going on here?” he asked as he noticed both Livia and me getting ready to leave.“They are getting started on their own side project, Kaylee,” Daniel said to Baxter.The two seemed to have become great friends.It was weird how just a few weeks ago, I had no one and thought my husband’s memories were all
Madeline:“We can work on this together,” Livia said to Daniel, who was in the president’s office, helping me with the files and preparing a strong case to convince the werewolves that we were going to form a good alliance and not betray their trust.I was working on the files, really trying to focus, but I couldn’t help noticing the way those two were acting around each other.It seemed like Livia had a crush on Daniel, but he seemed indifferent.He barely looked at her.I had gathered from their past that they had been friends for a very long time.Maybe Daniel had recently figured out that she had feelings for him, and since he didn’t feel the same way, he had decided to put some distance between them so their friendship wouldn’t be ruined.“I don’t really need a partner on this project right now,” Daniel said as he started placing some of the patients’ files in front of me.I walked over to Baxter’s seat and stood between it and the table.Baxter had insisted that I work from his
Madeline:We reached a shallow stream tucked between rocks and surrounded by tall grass and trees.The water was clear enough that we could see fish drifting near the surface and darting through the darker patches.My kids started to jump up and down, pointing toward the fish and clapping their han
Madeline:“I know I shouldn't have done that. I wish I hadn’t. Now I’ve lost everything. And he has the videos. I know he will come back to blackmail me again,” Yuvonne cried.I was shocked by everything she had been telling me. I reached for her hand and squeezed it."It was not your fault," I mur
Madeline:"Yuvonne? What are you saying?" I asked, my voice rising.At that point, I could no longer pretend it was not a big deal. She was crying and shaking her head uncontrollably. At times, she even scratched her arms."Yuvonne? I’m asking you. Tell me if it’s true. Did he fucking push you?" I
Graham:Everything went well. We decided that the next morning we would go to the council.We would tell them there was a video and that Yuvonne had given me a blowjob after drugging me.But the moment I went into the guest room, Kaylee rushed after me and hugged me from behind."What the fuck, Kay
