His Secret Second Chapter 67: The Hearing
(Jenna POV)“Attorney Maxwell, you may proceed.”I took a deep breath and then began to argue my case.It was a simple argument. One I had made many times before, albeit only in those rare situations that these motions were actually litigated. But for Nick’s warnings, I would have barely thought twice.Unfortunately, Nick’s warnings were still echoing in my head. As a result, I was not only on guard, but I was also noticing everything.Like the way the female member of the three-panel court kept looking over at my opponent. The way Mitchell Brown looked back at her, seeming too comfortable and too confident for the situation. The way he gave her the subtlest of nods just before she began firing off rapid-fire questions in my direction.Interestingly, these were all details that I would never have noticed but for my remote appearance. The video –which included separate cameras on each of the participants— made them that much easier to catch.“Ms. Maxwell, what I don’t understand
His Secret Second Chapter 66: The Letter
(Danny POV)The silence after I asked the question was thick, and the tension between us was palpable.Nevertheless, I stupidly stood there, phone still in my hand, staring at Jenna.She stubbornly stared right back at me. Her arms were crossed, and any amusement she had had as I tried to navigate the call had disappeared. Now she was deathly serious.“Did you tell him?” I asked again, once the silence became too much.Her eyes narrowed. “Tell him what, Danny?”“That we are mates.”She blinked before letting out a short, humorless laugh.“Are you serious?”“I need to know, Jenna.”It was more important than she could possibly realize.“You don’t trust me.”“I do, Jenna, it’s just you have been really vocal about not wanting to stay a secret, and ---”“And you don’t trust her,” Mason grumbled in my head.I felt overcome with shame, because Mason was right. I hated admitting it, but it was true. I didn’t trust Jenna. Not yet. Not on this. It was too important.Jenna shook her hea
His Secret Second Chapter 65: Pup vs. King
(Danny POV)The playful mood was instantly killed.“Jenna, what is this?” I demanded as I grabbed her phone.Jenna angrily snatched her phone away from me and stood up.“That is Nick being Nick,” she responded.I stood up too. I felt the anger raging inside of me, but I was trying to hold it back.“Nick? You are on a first name basis with the alpha king? I thought we agreed that you weren’t going to talk to him anymore.”“You can take the accusations out of your tone, Danny. I haven’t talked to him.”“Then why do you have a meeting with him in five minutes?”It didn’t make any sense.“Because he lives to torture me, okay?” she answered, clearly frustrated. “I told him that the call wasn’t necessary, but he set it up anyway.”“This is crazy. You should tell him to back off.”“You think I haven’t tried? What more do you want me to tell him? That my mate doesn’t want me to talk to him anymore?”I briefly froze.Before I could answer, Jenna’s phone rang. She showed it to me. It
His Secret Second Chapter 64: Mood Killer
(Danny POV)We had been living in the duplex for ten days.In many ways, I felt like I was living a double life.On one side of the duplex, there was constant fighting. Constant drama. Constant reminders that my choices had led to Beth’s illness. “Danny, I know that you want to be with Jenna not me.”“Danny, stop pretending that you care about me when you don’t.”“Danny, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.”Ok, not really on the third one. But that’s how it sounded in my head. It was exhausting. Especially because it was mixed in with brief moments in which I saw the she-wolf that I had once fallen for. The one filled with life and joy. The one that only Jenna saw consistently now.On the other side of the duplex, it was a different world. There was pure happiness. Peace. No drama.Jenna was strong and understanding. She worked hard during the day and expected nothing from me. Wrapping Jenna up in my arms at night was like a guilty pleasure. Some days …most days… I wished that
His Secret Second Chapter 63: Shadows on the Internet
(Jenna POV)“Hey, Baby,” Danny said as he leaned over to kiss me.I jumped two feet in the air.Danny laughed. “What are you doing that has you concentrating so hard?”I shook my head, trying to get my thoughts put together.“Just doing some research.”“On?”“Alpha Black.”Danny stilled.“Why?”“The alpha king asked me about him tonight. And Ashley brought him up today too. I realized that I don’t even know what he looks like.”Danny paled and took a step back.“What did Ashley say about him?”I furrowed my eyebrows, not sure why Danny seemed so worried.“Just that his wife left him. Apparently my mother told your mom, who told Ashley. That’s why we were talking about their friendship earlier.”“Oh. And what did the alpha king say?”“He just said that my father has been asking questions about me.”Danny froze. This time his body posture was unmistakable.“When did you talk to the alpha king? What kind of questions?”“It was while you were gone today. I don’t know what questio
His Secret Second Chapter 62: Onion Rings over Fries
CHAPTER 62 – Onion Rings over Fries (Jenna POV)The text from the alpha king was short and simple. It should not have bothered me.But, like always with him, it did.Nick: “Jenna Maxwell.”Seriously. That was all he said.Me: “What do you want?”Nick: “Just checking in.”Me: “You have incredible timing. As always. Are you stalking me?”I no longer believed in coincidences.Or did I ever believe in them?Nick: “Define stalking.”Me: “Leave me alone.”Nick: “I heard you moved. Can’t be easy for you.”I almost dropped the phone. I was joking about the stalking. But now? Now I was seriously concerned.Me: “How do you know that?”Nick: “I’m a stalker.”A&&hole.Me: “Tell me the truth.”Nick: “I’m the alpha king.”So a&&hole on steroids.Me: “You know too much.”Nick: “I’ve been accused of that before. Are you okay? Living next to Beth would not be my first choice for you.”For the second time, I almost dropped the phone. The irony was not lost on
