Thank you for reading, I have begun on the next chapter and will try post it later at night its early morning here and I will be heading to bed.
VALERIE. By the time I’m done, many at the table are frowning or deep in thought. Expressions of unease, anger and even worry on their faces. Sebastian’s eyes are blazing, and his anger is barely being held back. His aura is surging around it. I guess he never knew I was almost raped. We may not a
“Gordon Santino, twenty-seven-year-old electrician, his mother is a human, his father was a werewolf. Never been part of a pack, but his DNA at a hospital appointment gave away what he was. Four weeks after being chipped, he was missing. The body was found a few weeks later and police suspected ‘No
“And the two upstairs. What’s their case?” Atticus asks, sitting back as he twists a pen in his fingers. “We discovered Adriana protecting the door to where her injured sister was in a bad state. When we got to her, she was wounded.” Atticus nods slowly, swallowing, “And she wasn’t raped, was she?
ZADE. The meeting lasted hours, but it is finally over, and a plan of action has already been put into place. Zaia will meet with the president and Sebastian has already booked a meeting with a few officials, including the head of the police in this area as well as the mayor. Atticus is planning t
“Do you have an issue with my pack members that are under this roof? If us being here makes you uncomfortable, we can go elsewhere.” I say quietly, watching Atticus intently. He tenses, his heartbeat quickening for a second before it returns to normal. Quickly, but not quick enough… That was enough
“You might not want to piss Zaia’s twin off, King. I thought she’s exhausted?” Atticus reminds him. Seems the tables have turned. Sebastian glares at him. Atticus glares back before both turn and glare at me. I resist the urge to roll my eyes and take out a cigarette. This is going to be a long fu
ZADE. Silence falls between us before she makes her way down the stairs towards me. She glances back at the open door before she offers me a smile. “Thank you for coming today, and for all the research you have done. From the dates, it’s clear you began handling things from as soon as just two mon
“I-” I shut the door behind me, not wanting to hear anything else. ----- It’s late in the evening and this day has been as long as a fucking thousand days. I’d rather spend another five years in prison than another day with this lot. Atticus has still not managed to get the full database of thos
I slam the brakes.We’re both launched forward and Zion’s arm flies out, catching me before I break my nose on the wheel.The SUV shoots past us and propels straight over the edge.It flips, hitting the rock face below, and erupts in a fireball that lights up the cliff side. The ground trembles slig
~ MILENA ~“Oh, you did not, you fucking assholes!” I snarl, rage tearing through me. The pain in my forearm barely registers as I wrench the wheel to the side, slamming our car into the one on the left. I time it perfectly. Their tyres catch the curb and the vehicle lurches violently.“Milena!” Zio
“Your dad gives me a reaction, and he’s a tad more gullible than you, so it’s fun to mess with him.” Her impish smile reminds me of Xander, and I shake my head.“I’m glad this isn’t real then. You and Xander would be the death of him.”“Yeah, we’ll keep the pretence going though. If the Arkan had an
It’s crazy how I actually would trust her around them, even if she is one of the Arkan. She has some compassion when it comes to kids… looking at her now as she talks to Kaia about something it’s almost hard to imagine she’s a killer. Almost.The image of her cold eyes as she raised a gun and pulled
~ ZION ~Milena. She has a way of keeping me on edge when nothing else or no one else has that effect on me; I don’t know what she’ll do next; it was one of the things I like about her, but right now I’m not enjoying it. Her sly smiles that tell me she’s up to something and the way she hugs Mom and
Kaia, on the other hand, is confident and bubbly. That’s the only way to describe the twenty-one-year-old redhead with the huge smile and bright blue eyes like Zion’s.His uncle is a few tables down, but occasionally I feel the prickling sensation at the back of my neck of someone watching me, and I
~ MILENA ~“Smell me?” I repeat, my cheeks involuntarily flush as I shove him back, only to meet hard fucking muscle.“Your arousal, to be precise.” He smirks, baring those teeth in a dangerous smile.Oh, hell no.I know what werewolves are capable of, but right now I don’t need to hear that. I don’
I nod, smiling slightly. “Yeah, thirteen. And she has, a lot of time has gone by hasn’t it?” I agree, looking at her. Even her… she’s not that girl anymore. So much time has gone by and yet… seeing her all dressed up like this makes me picture a life we can never have.If I didn’t kill her brother.
~ ZION ~My eyes widen as I see Uncle and Milena staring one another down right after she gave me the finger, for goddess knows what reason.Fuck, I didn’t think he’d be here today. He hates these things. My stomach twists with unease as I stride across the hall.“Uncle, this is Milena, my girlfrien
