~Brielle I’m not sure what my first reaction should be. Immediately I fall to my knees by her side. I grab her limbs, feeling her cold skin, feeling how limp they are. Completely lifeless. I shake her a few times, put my ear to her mouth to catch a breath and even feel a pulse. Nothing. There is no life left in her. Had I known this was her choice, I would have never left the table. I may not know her, or even what her name was, but she’s Chase’s mother…why didn’t he tell me? He came in here, acting as though he had no clue who she was. He must have known to. I feel as though the entire plan was done without me even knowing. “Can’t you mourn later? She’s going to wake soon,” I hear Fate from behind me. There’s no need to turn around and shoot him a glare. He knows this isn’t a normal situation.Walking up behind me, he steps out and around the body carefully. Not because he cares all that much for the corpse lying here in the middle of a tent that was her home, but because he doe
Alpha Ren Epilogue
~Brielle Something doesn’t feel right. That’s been a thought on my mind for the past few weeks. In one instance, it seemed like everything should be righted in the world. Fate helped me, kept his word and I kept mine. Chase wasn’t exactly happy, but knew he wouldn’t have been awake to deal with Ren in time, so he let it slide after a few days of moping. Really, he’s using it as an excuse for his mourning of his mother. I could hardly believe he didn’t confide in me with any other this, but I didn’t berate him after going through what he did. Of course, he explained that she was sick, and wanted to sacrifice herself. He agreed only on the grounds that she didn’t have long left, but it took him months of consideration, and didn’t want me to convince him out of it. So here we are, lying in the sun on the seating outside, me leaning against his chest, him playing with my hair. It’s been like this everyday for awhile now. But like I said, something doesn’t feel right. I’m not sure w
Alpha Ren Prologue
~Brielle“I tried.”I swallow, eyeing the tips of her fingers that plaster the response letter of my last employment attempt to the surface of the oak table. Her eyes - silver as mercury - glare at me, piercing straight through my calm facade. She’s clearly not happy.Her blonde hair was clipped back from her face, allowing for her high cheekbones and sharp jawline to appear more prominent. She’s poised and sophisticated; more prepared for a life as a socialite than a maternal figure. She’s never been too kind, always strict and exacting, wanting the best and nothing but.I made a decision this year not to go off to university to study a course mother would be

~BrielleThe sun rose behind the dock as I approached it.Sleeping hadn’t been too easy pressed against the concrete alleyway wall. I decided the moment I could approach the docks, I would. Even when they are just getting ready for the first boat to cruise in from Ren’s island. It will be a supply ship, first thing. To get whatever Ren decides he needs for the day.This place is considered a public attraction here. There’s an entire restaurant on the other side, where only the richest go. There is a private area for when Ren arrives via ship, and is ushered out to a car in a secluded area.I only know this because of my father’s prior fascination. He would whi
Alpha Ren 2
~BrielleThis isn’t going to be easy.Boat’s come in from Ren’s island four times a day, I’ve come to notice in these past few weeks. One glides in early in the morning as I wake, another just before lunchtime breaks. Late afternoon, as patrons sip their tea and enjoy the sight of the lake, another boat finds itself in the dock. The last one often arrives just as we are closing up for the day, once the sun has fallen and night has consumed the lake.That’s the time I plan to smuggle onto the boat. When Linda has left, and I’m expected to lock up for the night.My desperation to get onto the boat has lead to an obsession. The curiosity of what Ren’s
Alpha Ren 3
~BrielleBy the time we made it to the island, my stomach was so queasy, I started to doubt if I could stand or not.I stayed hidden, hearing keen, as I patiently wait for the captain to leave the boat, and anyone else on the docks had dispersed. When everything sounded still, I made my move, forcing my stiff limbs into submission. I almost fall on my face, as I crawl across the boards, removing myself from when I had been hunched the entire journey.The breeze off the lake hits me the moment I hobble to my feet. It chills me right through my clothes, but it snaps my mind back into reality. I need to get off this boat, and find a way onto the island.And most importantly, not get caught.&n
Alpha Ren 4
~BrielleI woke up to a pair of blue eyes peering down at me.“Oh my,” I gasp, falling back into reality. I push away from the girl, only to realise she wasn’t alone. Three others surrounded my bed, staring down at me like a foreign object, one almost completely on my bed. I had to rub my eyes and remember where I was before I could understand what was going on.I’m in Ren’s estate. I made it safely to island, and I’ve been accepted into this place by someone who has been here for three years. I couldn’t have asked for anything better. Unless these girls are planning to kick me out.“What’s going on?” I question, when none of them
Alpha Ren 5
~BrielleNot getting caught right now is more imperative then when I snuck onto the boat.I take a few back hallways to avoid most of the manors formal interior, where I would be more likely to see the Alpha or his officials and company. Usually the corridors are bustling with life, working behind the scenes to ensure everything on the other side of the wall runs smoothly. This hour of the night, though, leaves everything abandoned.It means no one to question where I’m going with a basket full of folded male clothes. Luckily, these pieces of clothing aren’t his most extravagant. If it get out here, maybe no one would question it.When I came to the end of the last corridor, I
