Elena:I had to fight back letting out a low growl as I walked inside the house to see Drake. Alvize’s words played in my head and his attitude angered me even more than I thought that I would be. The man was rude as hell, and no matter how much I tried to ignore it, I couldn’t bring myself to do so. And the worst part was, he saw that as normal, and what annoyed me more was that I couldn’t believe that I was giving him the chance to be as rude as he was. My wolf wasn’t allowing me to put a complete stop to his attitude, being his mate, she tried to force or convince me to submit to him as a mate, and that wasn’t something that I liked.The man knew how to taunt a woman, and I was never one to show my expression or my feelings, it was part of my job to learn not to. However, with him, I couldn’t help but feel pain inside, that pain reflected on my face no matter how hard I tried hiding it. And it annoyed me that I knew that Alvize could see it. It wasn’t something that I wanted, if an
Alvize:“And hello, to my little princess.” I said, smiling as I carried my niece in my arms. Lia smiled as she looked at me, crossing her arms over her chest, watching as I handled her daughter with so much care. It was one of the only things that brought me back to this house, the little girl’s presence. Her green eyes met mine, and I couldn’t help the smile that formed on my lips when she giggled.“How are you, Alvize? Lia asked, making me smile. I wrapped my arm around her, pulling her for a hug as I held her daughter in my left arm. Her little child was half the size of my bicep, and that was something that I couldn’t help but admire. How can a child so small be so vulnerable and yet be so enchanting and loving? I didn’t know, and in all honesty, I didn’t care about finding out.“I’m fine, little wolf and you?” I said, knowing that she didn’t like the nickname that much. “I am a mother, and yet, you’re still calling me a little wolf?” She asked, raising an eyebrow.I chuckled a
Elena: “What did you find?” Mr. Joseph asked his tone, somewhat harsher than usual. If anything, I could tell that he was angry, though what he was angry about I couldn’t understand, especially considering the fact that it wasn’t at the office and I couldn’t ask Drake, and considering the fact that he was with me throughout most of the day, I was thankful that he wasn’t going back to the office. He had a few things to tend to before that. So, at least you wouldn’t be having the lash out of Mr. Joseph. I knew that he did not like me being at Alvize's mansion, especially considering the fact that he could not supervise what we were doing. He knew for a fact that Alvize would limit my connection with him, and though that was something that was going to give me somewhat of a freedom to work, it was not something that he liked. As my supervisor and boss, he knew that he had to be in control of what I did and what I did not do. It was what made him believe that he was superior to me. “As
Alvize: “Took you long enough.” Ezra said, crossing his arms over his chest as he looked at Elena and I, clearly playing the act of being a tease right now. And that was the last thing that I needed to deal with. The man knew that for fact, but having heard from me about Elena, he somewhat grew curious about who she was. Elena frowned in confusion, looking between the two of us before pinching the bridge of her nose. “I could barely deal with one. Now, I have to deal with another. Great more of the D’Caprio family.” Elena said sarcastically, and I rolled my eyes. Ezra smirked, fighting back a chuckle as he looked at the two of us. “That explains why you were annoyed earlier.” Ezra said, and Elena raised an eyebrow. The woman was easily taunted and that was something that I noticed. And though I did find it attractive. It also came as annoying. The way she looked at me, and the way she looked at my brother raising an eyebrow, waiting for us to do something wrong. Her gun was in her
Elena: I entered my house, frowning as I ran my fingers through my hair. The fact that I had complied to what the mafia men wanted me to do was not something that I liked. It felt like I was betraying my team and my boss, and that was not something that I found to be preferable, even though it meant just hiding something from them concerning what I was going to do. I took a deep breath, trying to clear my mind, wanting to understand how I was going to manage this. The idea of the men wanting to work with me frightened me more than I could let out. The two brothers, an Italian and a Russian, both mafia bosses, wanted me to work against my boss’s will with them, while hiding information that needed to be sent to the station. I knew that our Alvize had heard my conversation with Mr. Joseph and he knew for a fact that the man did not want me hiding anything. If that happened, and if I did get caught, I would be in more trouble. However, if I did not comply and listen to what they said
Alvize:I frowned as I heard the news, trying to process what she said as I wondered how that was even possible. The idea of Killian being alive was something that was so surreal that I couldn’t believe it, however, recalling Maria’s words. The man had indeed made a deal with the devil. And if that was real, then not only the pack, but literally anyone who associated with the pack members could be in danger. Ianos was not going to let anything go, and I knew that neither would Killian. Him dying the way he did was too easy, we all knew that, but this was the last thing that I expected happening.“Alvize, can you please at least explain to me what’s going on?” Elena asked, frowning in confusion at my expression.I shook my head in response, not knowing what to give her as a response. It was impossible to explain everything right now, but I knew that I needed to speak to Ezra about it. The man had to know if Killian was alive. The bastard might come for Lia first, and that was somethin
Elena:My breath got caught in my throat as I looked at the man who just left the house as coldly as he did. My hands shook as I processed the moment that had my wolf weaken, making me unable to move a muscle. I did try to, I tried to fight the mating bond, not wanting to get affected by it; I just couldn’t. And the fact that he was easily able to fight it, easily able to move away from me, made my heart ache. The man really did not feel it. It was just one sided, and just the idea of that made my world darken as my wolf whimpered. It was another thing that was taken away from me long before I was able to even think of enjoying it.I locked the front door before getting back into the library, checking the pictures that I just saw, trying to ignore his words which played in my head. It was hard, and I knew that I needed a distraction. The last thing that I needed to do was think about what happened. I didn’t need to get myself too hooked up on a bond that was one sided. One way or t
Alvize:“You are late.” I stated as I watched Elena enter the house. The woman looked at me for a few seconds, freezing momentarily, not saying a word, making me frown in confusion. She went to walk toward me, and I couldn’t help but notice the slight limp that she had as she took a step forward.I wanted to ask if she was okay, and if anything happened after I left. However, my eyes landed on the love bite that was on her neck and I couldn’t help the low growl but nearly escaped my chest. The last thing that I wanted was for her to know that she had such an effect on me, but fucking hell did it annoy me to see and know that my mate was with another man.“I was busy, I had a very long night.” Elena said, angering me more than I already was. The fact that somebody had gone to her apartment right after I left was not something that I could ignore, especially considering the fact that she had told me that she had no lover and though it did not concern me; the woman was my mate and that c
