Xavier's POV

The next few hours were rough.

Spike got Claire talking against her will. The method was painful enough for a werewolf of Claire's strength to pass out twice. By the second time, I overtook from Spike. Despite everything, I didn't want her to die.

And anyway, it had been confirmed that she didn't know much either.

She had no idea about the coordinates to the exact location of the Base she was working at. She knew no real names of any of her superiors or colleagues. Everyone had nicknames. All we got from her was that her immediate boss called herself Peach, who often talked about her boss as Olive. She worked with two guys who responded to Kiwi and Tan, short for Tangerine. Claire's nickname was Cherry.

The more stuff she said, the more we realized the gravity of the situation. Someone had gone to great lengths to keep the information about this research hidden. We knew nothing could be done without the King's approval but there was no loose thread to connect the King with

    Zoe's POVI don't know what I was expecting when the Alpha went to talk to my superior but in a few minutes, it was decided that work was done for the day and we were all going to have dinner together.Misha told me later that the Alpha and Rory, the lead event manager were old friends. But it was clear from her demeanor that she fancied him. I could bet more than half of the men and women who met him did. He had that charm that pulled everyone to him without even trying. I could bet that most of the time he didn't even notice the effect he had on the people around him.We went to a sophisticated establishment and were led to a private dining area. Rory, Laura, Misha, Alpha, Angelina, and I ordered our meals and got into light chit-chat.Misha and Laura were in an animated conversation about something. Alpha and Rory were reminiscing about the things they had in common, though it was more Rory talking and casually touching his shoulder or arm now and then. At the same time, he kept gla

    Xavier's POVMaisie!I woke up with a start. I placed a hand on my head to stop the world from swirling around me.My head was pounding. Why was the light so bright? Where the hell was the damn noise coming from?'You are hungover, dumbass.' Spike howled loudly in my head, 'And I am talking normally. You are being sensitive.' I could hear the sarcasm in his tone."Ugh." I saw the empty bottles from last night roll away from me where I had passed out on the floor, "Fuck!" I exclaimed but regretted it instantly and clutched my head, trying to get up without tripping.'Should've stuck to human beer if you can't handle adult beverages, boy.' Spike was taunting me and I was neither in the mood nor condition to engage with him.I stumbled into the shower.Why was Maisie's name ringing in my head? Did I do something when I was drunk last night? No, I wouldn't jeopardize myself even if I was drunk. Then, why did I think of Maisie among all the looming issues around me? I needed to freshen up

    Zoe's POV"If you really want to thank me, come to my sister's wedding guest reception as my plus one." Alpha Richard had proposed so suddenly that I almost missed what he said."Sorry?" I had asked, hoping bewildered that I had heard him wrong."I know this is hardly an ideal way to ask, but I will be leaving for work and won't return until the event. So, I needed to seize this opportunity before someone else did." He had explained sweetly but when he had noticed my expression of disbelief he hurried to say, "Of course, you don't have to answer right away. And, it is fine if you wouldn't want to do this, but I will feel honored if you do. Think about it?"I had nodded again, not trusting my mouth. I was unsure if I was even able to form coherent speech after such a proposal. "Good night, Zoe. Whatever's left of it. See you at the reception." He had smiled."Good night." I had managed to say as he drove away, leaving me confused, and with so many conflicting thoughts.I kept replaying

    "Save my life from what?" She asked, getting into defensive position. Luca kicked himself mentally. He had planned the whole thing and skipped the part where he had never met the girl and she was probably not going to trust a random stranger."We don't have time for introductions. Just trust me." He raised his hands in surrender while glancing outside. He didn't have much time before the guard realized something was wrong or if the real guys who were coming to get her got to her."Like hell!" She exclaimed. She was trying not to give in to her witch side but it seemed equally hard to defend herself by transforming in a closed space."You are a very mistrusting person and I respect that. But please." He sighed and then said, "Alpha Shaw sent me. I am his Beta. Now, let's go!""Why did Xavier send you? What is going on?" She asked worried while Luca seemed busy pressing random parts of the room wall around the hanging lamp."I really don't have the time to explain to you. Jus

The team had recieved a day off to cool down so we made sure everything went perfectly as planned.I didn't tell Dad about Richard's proposal.

The HQ had kept everything hudh hush. If it hadn't been my guy in the center of it all, I would never have known that Maisie probably was about to be worse than a lab rat.After days of not knowing what to do next and spending my days in the office to make sure John wasn't sapred any punishment. I walked exhausted into the loft.I hadn't been there in a while.The place was just as I had left it, except I didn't want to turn on the lights and see how truly empty it was without the one person whom I forced away from me. There were some envelopes in the mail that I just placed on the kitchen island without looking.I walked into the shower and turned it on. I let the cold water wash over me even though it could never wash the pain of betrayal and regret that was eating me up from the inside.I walk

    Zoe's POVOn the morning of the event, I was called by Laura to clock in early. A lot of parts that were left to be done fresh on the day of the event needed to get done in time.The event was in the evening, but we were informed that most of VIP guests had already arrived in the pack and were staying in various hotels. Laura had Misha and I run errands till noon. She was too tense because of the pressure from Rory. Everyone was nervous because this was the first project of the company on such a large scale and if everything went well, it could be the very thing that launches the company to national level."My feet are killing me and it's only mid-day." Misha complained dramatically as he sipped his boba tea."Maybe next time when it is such an important day at work, you'd refrain from heeled boots?" I teased and he frowned playfully."But seriously though, I am starving. Like I had my breakfast and its only noon. How am I starving?" He rolled his eyes dramatically and sipped his tea.
