“Sure” Knox said after my half-baked excuse about getting ready. He pushed his chair back, rising to his full height. “Let’s go.”

Mason groaned softly, still shoving food into his mouth. “Can’t we just—wait—give me one more minute, Alpha, I swear—”

But Knox was already walking out, and Mason sighed dramatically before chasing after us, muttering something about wasting good food.

The drive to the meeting was quiet. Soon we arrived and entered the boardroom. Everyone stood till Knox took his seat at the head of the table. Mason occupied the chair to his left, while I took the seat at his right.

Across from us sat two men and a woman — the representatives of Vanguard Holdings, a high-profile investment group whose signature would expand Grey Enterprise’s influence overseas.

“Let’s begin.” Knox said arranging the Rolex watch on his left hand.

“Mr. Grey,” one of the men stood quickly with nervous energy in his movements. “We’ve finalized the merger proposal. We just need—”

  • FANGS AND FATE: Bitten by the Alpha   Chapter Seventy: A Spy In The Pack

    ARIAI looked at Leona, who had a serious expression on her face. I took a deep breath as I thought about it. Being his queen and Luna didn’t sound like a bad idea.If I wanted to earn that, that meant going through a trial I didn’t even know what it entailed. What if I had to fight werewolves that would probably have my head away from my neck before the fight even began?I shook my head at such negative thoughts as I considered being handed the position. Knox was the Alpha. He already said he would make me his queen with or without their approval. But that would cause problems to his rule and maybe even get him more enemies.I looked at Leona, who had an eager expression, wanting to know what I was thinking, but she waited for me to set my thoughts straight.I would have preferred Knox handing it to me, but I couldn’t risk him facing problems because of me. And on the other hand, if I went through the trial… well, if I trained hard and got stronger, I might survive it. Besides, I wou

    ARIAI stood in front of the mirror as I stared at my reflection. My eyes went to the mark. It was healing and no longer a red, swollen wound.“Are you planning on standing there all night?” Knox asked as he pillowed his head with his hands.I turned as I faced him. It didn’t matter what I chose anymore, as I had been sleeping in his arms for quite a while. But what did that make us?“The bed?” I asked anyway.“Even if you choose the ground, you would sleepwalk to the bed,” he said while patting the side of the bed.I moved toward him and laid on my side, facing the lamp. I felt the bed dip deeper, a sign he was now lying properly on the bed. I suddenly felt his arms around me as he pulled me to him. My back hit his chest as he murmured, “Much better.”I blushed and forced myself to think straight.“So what are we?” I asked. “I mean, you’ve marked me, and presently, we are cuddling. This isn’t the usual shifter–boss and his assistant setting.”I paused before continuing. “In your worl

    ARIA Brother? I blinked looking around probably to look for her relation when she headed straight towards our table."What an introduction, with a head" Knox said"Come on that's not the right words to welcome your sister”I blinked at the duo as I noticed the resemblance in their eyes. "No hugs? No dramatic gasps? I’m hurt," she said touching her chest with her free hand"This is a pack dinner and–”“So how else would I arrive, Alpha, if not memorably? Grand entrances are my love language.”I heard a few wolves choke before they returned to their feast."What a nuisance! Who in the name of the moon Goddess arrives like that with a pack dinner?” Mason said with a scoff but the young lady ignored him.“Leons" Knox called exhaling through his nose."Knox" she grins, putting the head away on a platter and omega was holding before sitting.Leona's gaze slides before finally landing on me. Her brows lifted slightly "You must be her"Huh?"The infamous human mate of my brother. She said sh

    ARIAI shifted closer to the source of heat only to be met with a hard surface. Not like I cared because I was loving the heat.Suddenly, I felt the surface moving. Huh? I felt something soothing on my shoulders, exactly where I had been bitten and marked. I meowed loving the feel.“You’re awake” Knox voice made me open my eyes to come in contact with a pair of gray ones looking down at me.Heat creapt up my cheek as reality dawned on me as I instinctively shifted backwards. A reaction I regretted cause I missed the feel of his body. I let my eyes roam anywhere but him.I could feel his palm caressing the mark and the pain, I must say, had reduced greatly. I barely felt it.“How are you feeling?”“Much better” I replied, finally meeting his gaze.“Let’s go eat” He said while standing up the bed.“But I had eaten before falling asleep” I uttered, though I wouldn't mind filling my stomach to the brim.“You’ve been asleep for quite a while and besides, it's time for dinner in the pack ho

    ARIAKnox didn’t say a word the entire walk back to the house. He just carried me silently in a bridal style while I cling to him weakly.He pushed open the bedroom door and carried me inside. Then he laid me slowly and carefully on the bed. “K…Knox?” My voice cracked in an attempt to break the silence. He slowly looked at me with… ‘Is that pain or regret in his eyes’ I thought. If it was the later, then it wasn't directed at me as I could feel him through the bond.He scanned me with his eyes and then wiggled his left hand. It turned to paw with fur and claws.I held my breath, trying to think of what he was doing as he dragged it across his right palm, slicing skin open. Blood welled instantly. My eyes flew wide. “W..wait, what are you—”“Drink,” he said, as he took his right palm towards my mouth. I wanted to argue but I remembered when Celina kidnapped me and Knox cutting his palm and forcing his blood into my mouth to save me. I remembered how that had healed my body.I swallo

    ARIAI didn’t know how long I had been running. My feet hit the ground in uneven thuds as every step felt heavier than the last. Sweat slid into my eyes and stung as I wiped it with the back of my shaky hand.“Just… keep going,” I muttered to myself, though my voice sounded like gravel.‘But where should I go? I don't even have any sense of direction’ I thought.My legs wobbled, making me miss a step and stumbled, as my knee hit a rock. “Ah!”A small cry slipped out. I pushed up anyway with my arms trembling beneath me, even though my muscles were craving to lie on the ground.I kept up my pace tiredly and soon a branch scraped my arm. “Ow!” I hissed, yanking myself away as a burning sting bloomed across my skin.My vision went fuzzy again. I blinked rapidly, but everything swayed like the whole forest was turning.‘Don’t stop. Not yet. At least not here.’ I sang in my head as I dragged myself forward. I noticed some shapes ahead. I blinked to see the figures clearly. ‘Was I finally
