Part 17
The collective sounds of gasps and murmurs echoed around the room; their eyes widened. I felt my breath hitch in my throat, the sharp smell of vanilla burning my nostrils. The burn of his fingers was the only thing keeping me from collapsing on the floor. Goosebumps prickled along the skin of my arms, body feeling putty in his hold.
Isabella's hand flew to her mouth, face whitening as she stared at me. My best friend appeared too shocked to process anything but mouth the words, "Is it true?"
Guilt swarmed my belly. I couldn't tell her my situation, or she would have gone out of her way to help me. Isabella already did a lot by rejecting offers from other companies to stay with us. I had no desire to burden her anymore.
I nodded my head at her, mouthing the words.

With the promise of seeing me soon, the Alpha twins walked out of the office. A strange kind of silence settled over me, almost prickling at my skin. I felt sweat starting to collect at the back of my neck, a flush spreading across my face, making me feel too warm and uncomfortable in the room with a tall, french window.I parted my mouth, not knowing whether it was to breathe or scream when the door to my office was pushed open—a faint sound of familiar noise echoing in my ear and footsteps that made the ground vibrate beneath.“Erin!”That single word pulled me back into reality, body jolting in the seat as I looked up only to see my best friend. Isabella’s expression was blank as she approached, just watching me the entire time.

I stared quietly at my father, the corners of my mouth lowering in sync with heart sinking down my gut. For a few more seconds, the silence was cast over the entire room. I could still feel the Alphas intent stare at me, and I wasn't sure what to think of it. Undoubtedly, the both of them could decipher the situation for what it was? There was no need for me to spell the words out, body sinking further into the couch.Indeed my father must be surprised at the situation, confused even as the news was sprung on him out of nowhere. Even though he did not show it, I knew that my father regretted that night five years ago. He blamed himself silently.My gaze trained on him, watching as the blank look stretched across his face vanishing, replaced by a glimmer in those eyes. A burst of surprised laughter slipped past his lips, a hand slapping his thigh.

Pulling open the door, I gaped at the sight in front of me, mouth falling slack. My heart started thudding loudly in my chest as the Alpha walked past me. The entire room instantly reeked of his spicy scent; my breath caught in my throat.It took me a few seconds to realise that I was still standing at the door, holding on to the handles like a fool. Whirling around, I pinned him with a look, watching his back muscles. I crossed my arms against my chest.“Reed, what do you think you are doing?” I inquired sternly; my eyes displayed the significant indignation my voice tried to convey.Reed was now admiring the walls of my room, or so I thought. In reality, he was stari

Hurriedly I grabbed on the edges of the paper, almost tearing it in the process, squinting while running my eyes over the words. A lump lodged in my throat, vision blurring as I kept on flickering between the grainy photo and bold text. The entire pack must have read it by now, at least seen the horrible picture posted on the front page."H-How is this possible?" I croaked, eyes widening as I whirled around to glare at my sister. "Did you talk to anyone?""Ayee!" Esther let out a dramatic yelp, cheeks turning bright red, tilting her head towards my mother. "Do you see this, mom? She is crazy!""I am not getting in the middle of this!"Before I could open my mouth, my sister nudged me, angry tears quickly filling her eyes, "How could you be so heartless as to accuse your little sister? Why w

“It has to be someone who knew about our plan.” Reed suddenly said, lifting the silence that’s settled over the room. I jerked at his voice, head tilting to look at him as I tried to make sense of his words. Well, he had a point.“Could it be someone from your office?”Something snapped in me at his tone, nostrils flaring as he eyed the closed door with a thoughtful look. I strode closer and crossed my arms together, glaring at his side. Granted that most of them didn’t like me in the office, but I am still their boss. They have been working for my family for years, and I don’t think anyone would do something so hurtful.&ldq

/Rowan's POV/"What are you going to do now?" The question rang in the air, making my body still. I clasped my hands, vision blurring while staring at the bright screen in front of me. An anonymous tip. That's all they said. Despite trying all the tactics, no one said a word except that line. Who was eager to break the news to pack? What could they possibly gain by doing this stunt?Along with my beta, I sat with the IT department to get to the leading site of the newspaper publishing, but there was nothing. They weren't lying about the phone call part, but we could not get any information on the number.I bought my hands to my temples, a loud breath ripping out of my chest, head lolling. For a second or two, I clenched my eyes shut, racking my brain for the mastermind. There

There are some holders mounted to the walls, candles burning and flickering, throwing long shadows over the tiled floor. I stepped forward and let the tips of my fingers dip into the water, not just lukewarm but hot and perfect considering that I was drenched. My body constantly felt cold and clammy due to the unpredictable weather outside.Staring at the mirror, I took a few more breaths before running a hand through my damp hair. This place bought back a lot of memories; they were beautiful but haunting. I often met with Martha outside this place, not wanting to spoil her business with my presence. Even though the kind woman insisted there’s no such thing. I was aware of the mentality in the pack, their evil eyes and whispers behind my back.A tired sigh escaped my lip

It was a miracle that I somehow managed to make it back home in one piece. Reeds interest paired with that intense atmosphere around was not a good idea. By the time I rushed out of there, I was still having trouble taking deep breaths, my heartbeat fast and erratic, hands trembling with suppressed nervous energy.What would happen if he finds out, though? I suppressed all the memories in a box, locked it tight and threw the key somewhere. Will the deal fall through? Does that mean the end of our business relationship? I sunk my teeth on the bottom lip, toes curling in the sandals. Ignoring those thoughts, I tried to muster a smile and step through the door.Upon entering, I frowned at the dark lighting in the room. Turning on the nearest switch, I noticed that my parent's room was already closed. My eyes went to the clock,
