LOGINPoor Adrian...
Isaiah POVWhen I got the text from Adrian, I knew something was terribly wrong. Kaia saw, rather felt, my anxiety.“What’s wrong?” she asked.“Adrian said the mate bond snapped with Amber and that her wolf was gone. Doctors and nurses were in her room, treating her.”She sucked in a breath. “She’s gone, isn’t she?”“I think so, but Adrian hasn’t confirmed. I told him to call Aiden.”“You should call Aiden. Adrian isn’t thinking straight.”She’s right, so I called Aiden.“Hey, bro. What’s up?”“Adrian needs us. Can you get to Ironclaw?”“What happened?” Aiden asked seriously.I told him about the text messages and what Kaia and I are thinking. He growled low. “Son of a bitch. I’m on my way. Is Sinclair still searching for Ronan?”“Yeah. She opted to stay behind to continue her search. We are going back next week to bring her back,” I replied.“Okay. I’ll call her and tell her I want daily status updates on Ronan. That bastard is going to pay.”“Damn right he is,” I said. “I’ll meet yo
Adrian POVI stood there, trying to understand what he just said. “What do you mean, gone? She was doing better. How is she now gone?”He took a deep breath and started explaining. “Her vitals went into cardiac distress and oxygen deprivation from one moment to the next. That’s usually an indicator of a blood clot. Ultimately, she suffered a cardiac arrest. We were trying to locate the clot in time, but we were too late. I’m so sorry for your loss, Alpha.”My world just stopped. She’s gone. Not gone like, moved away, and it’s for the best, gone. No. She is GONE. Dead. I will never see her again. Even if I didn’t want to see her again, there would never be an option for that to happen later.I feel the room around me spin. My legs are going weak. I haphazardly make out the doctor grabbing me and guiding me to a chair. My body feels dead inside. Thor is whimpering in my head.“I hate that I loved you.”Those were my last words to her. Oh, Goddess! That’s the last memory either of us had
Adrian POVI didn’t go back to the hospital after my last conversation with Amber. I just couldn’t keep pretending. I couldn’t keep sitting there and talking to her while my very soul felt like it was being crushed.I feel bad for being harsh with her, though. I don’t hate her, but I no longer love her either. I hate the things she did that led to all of this. It’s been two days since I last saw her, and I decided that today, I would apologize to her for my harsh words. I will tell her that I do not love her, but I don’t hate her either. I just don’t have the energy to care anymore.The rejection will need to be clean and swift. I am contemplating calling her aunt. She was the only person in her family who was nice to Amber. I can at least make the arrangements for her aunt to come get her and take her away to heal after the rejection.‘You’re kinder than most, just doing that for her,’ Thor said.‘It’s the only kindness I can give, Thor. Her cruelty far outshines mine.’‘Agreed.’I g
Sinclair POVI’ve been searching and searching. Using the new information that Ronan provided during the attack to help me with a new angle. Start figuring out who he has been in contact with and narrow the path from there.It might be a long shot, but it’s better than no shot.“I suspect he has dealings with Julian,” Isaiah said.“Because of the women, right?” I asked.“Yeah. Paul was getting women from another wolf. Birch helped Julian and managed the women with Whitaker and Satterwhite. So maybe we need to see where he has been with Julian.”I smiled wickedly. “I would love nothing more than to hack into Julian’s mainframe and go through all his data.”Kaia laughed, “Are you going to need another laptop?”“Nope. Black Enterprises' tech department is clean. You just have asshole men working in that department.”“They learned who I was today. I’m not worried,” Kaia said.I laughed. “I bet that was fun.”“It would have been more fun if you had been there. Because I already know you wou
Isaiah POVWatching Kaia work in the capacity of CEO is hot. She completely dominated that boardroom. She dominated IT when they tried to talk technical, thinking she wouldn’t understand. She dominated when HR tried to give her bogus information about labor laws. She just dominated.She literally told everyone to fuck off in such a way that they are now looking forward to the trip and have packed their bags. It was a brilliant thing to watch. It made my desire for her grow with each passing second. I made sure she felt it in our bond, too. At one point, I could smell her arousal and see her cheeks flush.Yeah…we are having fun tonight. It’s even more fun because she is carrying our son. I love seeing her stomach swollen. I love applying massage oil to her. I love feeling our pup kick, knowing I filled her with our son. It does a lot of things to me.Now, I have another thing about her that I just love. Her assertiveness. Her boss mode. She is a damn fine Luna and a bit of a scary CEO.
Julian POV“Alpha Julian, I have news about Black Enterprises.”“Speak,” I ordered.“Paul Black’s ex-wife has assumed the role of CEO. Her husband is the Deputy CEO.”“How? There is a board. They voted her in? What the hell is Birch doing?”“Birch and Satterwhite are both arrested and in the custody of the FBI. The IRS is also involved.”“Come again?”“Mrs. Willis had all the dirt on those two regarding the embezzlement. Mrs. Whitaker called to tell me. She also knows about the prostitution ring, though she didn’t give any information to the FBI about it.”I growled. “Son of a bitch! We needed that supply chain!”“I understand, but Mrs. Willis had them removed, and they had to sign over the shares to her mate.”“So now they are the biggest shareholders of Black Enterprises? Fuck!”I swiped all the contents on my desk to the floor. I haven’t found the hacker. I haven’t been able to get Mia or Rodrigo. The docks are still not in my control. Now the supply chain I need has been dismantled
Isaiah POV That mate bond snapped into place, and for the first time, I had real insight into Kaia’s mind. She has never felt wanted. That’s all she ever wanted. To be loved and wanted. I also felt her wonder and awe about me. I wasn’t expecting that. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting her to be in awe o
Isaiah POV Kaia is looking at me with a serious expression, and I’m filled with dread. Did the judge not grant the divorce? How much longer will it take? I’m practically dying to claim Kaia. She looks at Mr. Fellman and shakes his hand. “Thank you, Mr. Fellman. We will be in touch within the next
Kaia POV Mr. Hollman stood up, “We believe those medical records are forgeries, your honor. My client states he did enter into this marriage, and they did become husband and wife…officially.” Judge Michael looked at me, “Mrs. Black, it’s a big deal to lie in my courtroom. Did you or did you not co
Kaia POV The bailiff calls for everyone to rise as Judge Michael comes, walks in and takes his seat. He calls out the case. “Your Honor. This is the divorce case for Black vs. Black.” He said and handed the folder to the judge. “Be seated.” Judge Michael said. “Mrs. Black, you are seeking a divor
