ELINNA

I didn't know that the meeting was going to last this long and I couldn't walk out because I was actually interested in what they were talking about.

I looked at my watching, seeing that it was thirty minutes after the time I had told Carlisle to meet me at the restaurant.

My phone had gone off a few minutes ago and I already knew that it was him. He was waiting for me.

If it were me, I would be mad that he was keeping me waiting.

Screw it.

I stood up immediately, packing my things in my hand.

“Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to leave you here but I have something very important to attend to and I'm already behind schedule so if you are willing to wait until we can pick this up again, by all means, do so. But if you can not wait, conclude the meeting and give me the minutes so I can give my own contribution. Is that okay? Have a good day.”

I walked back to my office and dropped my files, picking my bag and going downstairs. As I got into the elevator, I decided to call Ca

    ELINNAOf course, we had just one last hurdle to climb. The person who had sent all those people here.“Don’t tell me you're her brother?” He smiled with his hands as he opened the lock and threw the gates open for her to walk through like a queen. “Did you want a formal introduction? I'm the one you're looking for. You're just too dumb to have figured it out.” Leonardo Kevin Eli Ansel…Rearranged would be Kevin Ansel Eli Leonardo…Kael. We were focusing on the wrong name all this time. But it was too late. Lizzy was already free and she was holding a gun in her hand. “Hello Elinna, I see you've met my brother earlier. I got bored being here and it was too dark for me so I had to tell him to come get me out of here. It makes me sick being here..but it was fun to see that Gomez turned out to be Carlisle's brother. That explains a lot. I always thought they eere sleeping with each other.”I burst out into laughter as I genuinely couldn't hold it back. It took all of them by surpris

    ELINNABy the time the sun had risen high in the sky, the celebrationd had started and it was almost at its peak. We had gotten in without any trouble and it had been so easy to get in but the issue now was going to be with getting into the house. There was a back entrance but it was so hard to get in through it. We couldn't use the front because that was where everyone was gathered. There was a tunnel at the back of the house that led to the cells. It had been an olden way to bring in slaves and war trophies without being seen by the people. Now, it had been abandoned but it was still connected to the cells. “We need to move fast, My Queen. We have just under an hour to do what we want to do and get out of here without being seen. The guards may be distracted for now but not much longer.”I tapped the earpiece on my ear. “Alex, what's the status report? What can you see?” “It’s all good, My Queen. The only people there is one guard who's currently sleeping.”That made me stop

    CARLISLEWe got up early the next morning. Everything was ready and I took my gift to Gomez's room. I couldn't believe that I finally had someone who I would call my brother. If not for the fact that I had a son, my death would have meant the end of the Evergreens.But now, I had a brother. Chase now had someone by his side to act like his father if something ever happened to me..“All hail the Prince.” He was facing out of the window with his hands across his back while the maids set things up in his room. When he heard my voice, he turned around and looked at me, a wide smile spreading across his face. “All hail the King!”As I hugged him, I brought out the gift I had prepared for him. “You got me a journal?” He collected it with a mocking smile on his face. “Not just any journal. Our mother's diary.” The smoke on his face disappeared and he looked at me in disbelief. “Elinna found it and…I thought you should have it. To read and see that she loved you and would have done an

    ELINNA“I’m still going to go to the pack after work. Don't even try to stop me because I'll go with it without you, I assure you.” Lawrence had spent all his time convincing me that what happened was a threat to my life. And i spent my time convincing him that I didn't care. Its not like they couid do anything to me freely, the only reason they could get time was because I wasn't guarded and I went out. I barely go out so it won't happen again. “The King knows about what happened.”That was enough to stop me from sitting down after I'd dropped me bag. “What did you say?” He put his hands in his pockets. “I told Gomez about what happened and he told the King. He called me to ask what happened.” So does that mean that he cared? No, I didn't want to give myself hope. He might just be calling because he doesn't want to seem wicked. I sat down, wondering what he could have said to Lawrence. If there was anyone who would ever take something like this seriously, it would be him. He

    CARLISLE“Don’t you both want to go to bed? We have a big day tomorrow. Gomez, have you finished working on your speech?”He turned around like a mechanical doll and looked me in the eye, his expression filled with dread. “What did you say?” I carried Chase who had fallen asleep on his lap and took him to his room, tucking him into bed. As soon as I told him that Gomez was his actual uncle, he has never left his side. Their bond became stronger. By the time I went downstairs, Gomez had turned off the TV and was packing up his things. “What speech are you talking about?”I blinked. “Didn’t I tell you? You are going to deliver a speech. It's your welcome party, you don't expect not to say a single word, do you?” I made my way into the kitchen to get something to chew on since I was going to be up late tonight. It had now become a habit of mine to stay up late even when I didn't have anything to do. If I went to sleep early, I would feel restless. “And you didn't think of saying a

    ELINNA“Take a seat.” Lawrence stood at the door as the man took the chair in front of me and straightened his suit. He didn't even look familiar nor did I know his name. “I’ll be brief with you. A lot of money is missing from the account and I would like to ask how you didn't find it and report it to me.” The tie around his neck suddenly seemed too tight and he loosened it over and over as he sat in his chair. “Missing? How? I didn't notice, ma'am. I mean, my employees must have made a great mistake, I'll go back and tell them to rectify it.” I didn't even notice that Lawrence was standing behind the man and he pushed him back into the chair as he tried to stand up when I hadn't finished talking. “You don't seem comfortable. Is everything okay? Or is there anything you might want to tell me about what happened to my money?” He remained silent for a very long time, like he was more afraid of Lizzy getting to him while she was in prison than me dealing with him where he could
