LOGINKieran POVI disliked this man who’s standing as our captain. I think he has his eyes set on Lyra, and she doesn’t know it yet, or she might even know but pretend not to see my reaction.I asked a question, and both parties went mute, as if they weren't having a conversation before I stepped in.“How far are we?”“We have two days left on this trip, and we’re heading into the most dangerous part of the sea. It’s way past midnight, so we ought to be ready for any obstacle that tries to block our way.”“Do you think Alpha Harry is still following us?”“If a ship were following us, I’d have seen it, but no one is following us. Whoever that man is might have another route because this is the shortest route to your destination.” He divulged before leaving the steering wheel for me to hold.“At my call, you’re going to make a hard right. Give that wheel your whole strength…” he paused and turned to his crew members along with my men.I told them to follow his orders because he’s the one who
84Crystal POVI didn’t respond to his remarks about how he saw me in his arms. I was in a coma, and he was only trying to do his best to make me return to the land of the living, but Kieran is meant to do that and not Sir Phillips.“There’s always a day in life where you’d have all that you want at your feet, and you’d never say a word to anyone on what your decisions are.”“What are you insinuating?”“I’m only here for a particular period of time, and once it expires, then it’s all over for me. Olivia and I would return with the remaining part of my payment and invest in stocks.”“We’re not discussing stocks here…”“That’s always been my wish, and I’m hell-bent on making it a reality.” My voice was shrill, yet Kieran wasn’t letting me out of his sight.As soon as I finished the meal, he stepped out with the plates and returned with a jar of wine and two cups.“I think you need wine to soothe everything…”“I never asked for wine.” The moment I said those words, I heard a long growl t
Crystal POVWhen his crew members were drawing the ship hooks and I saw the distance between me and the shore increasing, I felt relieved that we were getting closer to meeting Alpha Jayden."Sir Phillip.""The prettiest lady on the sea speaks my name yet again. It feels good listening to that voice of yours." He let out a compliment, thinking that I wasn't married to Alpha Kieran. It made me realize that he thought Kieran was married to Valeria."What did you just say?" I wasn't surprised when Kieran started speaking like he was meant to hurt the captain of the ship."I just complimented the lady. You're with your lady, so what's your business with this lady as well? Are you married to both ladies?""What's wrong with your head?" Kieran roared as Olivia held him back and stood between him and the captain."She's married to him, while this lady here is desperately seeking an audience with someone whom she lost to my best friend here. Does it explain everything now?" Olivia patted his
Crystal POVI hated that he was doing this, making me feel bad because I think he's interested in her, which makes it obvious that he still has his eyes set on her.I never knew he would agree to fight alongside that ungrateful lady. Her father might be the one behind this, and if I eventually find out that he's part of this...Valeria, you're going to be an orphan.Queen Elyah left while we waited for Valeria. She returned with a guard who led us through a rough path leading to the shore. The grass was almost taller than me, so I had to keep my eyes and ears open to avoid snake bites."This is my stop. Safe trip." He turned back and entered the grass that we had just escaped.I shoved my hand into my pocket to bring out the seal, but it wasn't there."Where's the seal? We need it now." I shoved my other hand into my other pocket and found out it was empty. The seal was missing, and I knew it must have fallen off within that grassland."Don't tell me you lost the seal!" Kieran was pra
Kieran POVI was shocked when I saw that Olivia was making her way to the room where she thought we'd be because it was more like the only shade aside from the place meant for the leaders to stay, which was where the Alpha of this hellhole stood and watched Lyra and his wife train."I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but Alpha Harry is here, and I don't know if you want to see him.""Do you think he knows that we're here?""I don't think he knows that because he just walked into the pack as a guest, and I made sure he didn't see me. The Queen refused to tell him that we're in her pack as visitors.""Why would she do that?" Lyra asked Olivia as she raised both of her hands in the air, acting dumb toward the question because she had no answer."I don't think he's here to see us. I have this feeling that he might know something about the program she told me about.""So what do we do now that he doesn't know that we're here with him in this pack?""Get the guards, we're leaving. G
Crystal POV“That was a beautiful contest. I guess she hasn’t lost her touch becoming the Healer of the pack and the Queen at the same time, and on the other hand, she’s good too.” He uttered as he led Queen Elyah into the castle, while I stayed back to reflect on all she said.“If someone’s running a program without anyone knowing about it, then that certain someone should also know how to cover his tracks, since it feels like very few people know about it,” I muttered to myself and turned to see Kieran standing behind me.I was startled beyond measure.“How are you so up? I knocked you out.” He chuckled softly, wearing a wide smile.“That’s why I have this wrapped around my head. It was a good shot, I’d say.” He chuckled as he embraced me and planted a kiss on my lips. I broke the kiss and pushed him backward, demanding to know why he wanted her dead.“What made you react that way?”“I don’t know how it happened, but I remember strangling her, but not to the point of death.” He let
Crystal POVI wondered if Kieran was ever going to ask me to become CEO, but he just did, and I don’t know what to say to him. I want to be close to him and help him find his father, but leaving the company with no one to run it could affect the finances and his business reputation at large.“I don
Crystal POvIf someone ever told me that I’d be in this situation before I signed the document, I would have thought twice before putting my signature, but it’s all in the past, and I have to accept everything that comes with the contract as long as it’s within the stipulated time.Even after the m
Crystal POVI hoped it was a joke, and he was trying to pull my leg, but the tears that dropped afterwards made me believe that his father was missing, but he doesn’t know who must have kidnapped his father and searching for him without letting the media know about it would be difficult.“How did y
Crystal POVI hope Kieran doesn’t think he can play with my emotions whenever he likes. He asked me to leave and take care of the conference room, which I did, but I hated him for thinking he could do the deal by himself.I secured the deal after watching Mr. Clay sign the deal. It was to last for
