18. The Truth
Konstantin
If I pace this room any more than I have, there will be a fucking dent in the concrete. “Are you fucking sure?” I ask my brother, who has finally decided to reveal what the old Alpha told him.
“Why would I lie?” he scowls while crossing his arms.
I stop walking and look at him. “Okay, then why not tell Fenriz this as well? Isn’t this something you think he needs to be aware of?” I ask, still not understanding my brother’s logic.
“The old Alpha asked me not to tell his son about this as it will distract him from his current duties,” Kai says. I think he’s referring to the newest wife Fenriz will be killing.
“So we’re doing this without his help, now that we know exactly what we’re up against?” I exclaim. We need Fenriz now more than ever; actually, we need all the fucking help we can get.
Kai sighs and pinches the bridge of hi

For the last few months, he’s been in here religiously, taking what he wanted and then leaving.So why has he stopped?The uncertainty is making my stomach churn and I have been on edge this entire time.

Konstantin: The Heartless Beta 20. Nephilim Dagger
KonstantinI step into my club and breath out an annoyed sigh. It is such a fucked up thing knowing that even as Lily is out there have fuck knows what done to her, I have to go about my day as usual. Yeah, I get it, we’re Bratva, and the show must go on but fuck. I hate it.Zephyr walks into my office and starts giving me the rundown of things. From what he’s telling me, I gather that things have been running smoothly. Apparently, there’s a new bout of regulars in from Hell’s Kitchen, and they’ve been itching to meet me, especially the Alpha.“Did they say what they wanted?” I ask.Zephyr shakes his head. “Nope, but from what I’ve noticed, they’re a pack of Rogues with one man leading them and calling himself Alpha.”My eyebrows raise up at this. “Oh? A pack of Rogues? That’s interesting but not unheard of, I guess. Usually, the Rogues keep out of BloodC
Konstantin: The Heartless Beta 21. Baby Name
LilyA sense of calm has come over me since meeting my mother again. She tells me stories about how life was after leaving my father, how she’s always had to look over her shoulder even after changing her appearance. My father is more evil than Fenriz could ever be by the sounds of things, but Fenriz has definitely got the temper from him.Especially the thirst for killing Maiden Lunas.My babies stir as my mother places her hand on my stomach, and she lets out a squeal.“Oh, he’s saying hello to me!” she gushes, rubbing my swollen belly gently.I giggle at this and pop another cube of raw beef into my mouth; it seems the twins have been craving it lately, and it’s understandable. One is a carnivore after all, and the other… well….“I can’t wait to meet him,” she croons and kisses my stomach.“You mean them, you can’t wait to meet th
Konstantin: The Heartless Beta 22. Nikolai's Mate
KonstantinKai walks ahead of me, and we spot the curvy little blonde sitting at the bar. She tenses up before she even turns around, and her heartbeat starts racing./“Calm down with your fucking Alpha vibe, will you?”/ I tell him over the link, and he raises his eyebrow at me. /“We don’t know who this girl is; let’s hear her out.”/He nods, we come to a stop in front of her, and I blink, wondering if we were seeing right. I know I’m sounding like a complete asshole right now, but this woman is not Nikolai’s type at all. She looks like she belongs in a library; short and chubby with curly blonde hair tied up in a high bun and thick black-rimmed glasses behind brown eyes.In short, she’s completely plain and not the bombshells he usually used to bring to his penthouse.Kai doesn’t seem to think what I’m thinking, though, and he approaches her.
Konstantin: The Heartless Beta 23. Nova's Story
KonstantinKai instructed me to take Nova to Nikolai’s penthouse. He still couldn’t bring himself to empty it out, so he just had a cleaner come in twice a week to keep it dust-free. Now on top of everything else, we have this to worry about. Nikolai might still be alive, and he probably got taken the night he died.The only type of person who can fool an Alpha is a witch - Kai’s least favourite supernatural being.We step into Nikolai’s penthouse, and Nova stops walking. I’m about to ask her if something is wrong when I see her shoulders shaking, and she lets out a sniff.“This is his scent,” she murmurs, then turns to look at me. “This is Nikolai!”I can’t help but smile at her pure reaction and her wide-eyed innocence. She may not be Nikolai’s type of girl, but I can tell she’s being genuine.Before Kai allowed Nova anywhere close to the buildin
Konstantin: The Heartless Beta 24. Rogue Alpha
KonstantinKai and Cat are spending the evening with Nova so that I can head to this meeting with the Rogue Alpha in peace. I don’t know what to expect, and to be honest, I hate this; too many things are happening all at once, and it’s pissing me off.Now I wonder what is in store for me with this fucking Rogue. What does he want from me, and why ask for me and not Kai?I suppose that I won’t know unless I meet him, so here we go.Placing my helmet on top of my motorcycle, I walk inside and can already catch the unknown scent of Rogues inside. I round the corner and spot him immediately; how could I fucking not?He’s tall, with a broad build that lets me know he’s fought for his position; he has dark hair, short and faded and long on top with the piercing blue eyes of a Rogue. Not only that but there’s a scent of True Alpha on him.This actually makes me want to know his story.
Konstantin: The Heartless Beta 25. Tomorrow Night
Konstantin “Start from the top,” Kai orders, leading Cat over to a chair at my desk. Both of them were still reeling at the bomb Cain had just dropped on them, and emotions were quite high. Cain nods then launches into the same story he told me - including the fact that he worked as a mercenary for Stefan. “I came here seeking your help in reclaiming my territory, but it seems that I’ll be the one leaving with more than I thought I would.” He says, his eyes falling on a wide-eyed Caterina. “Those scars on your neck, who caused them?” Cat asks, looking small in the plush leather seat next to Kai. Cain blinks at her question, then his eye flashes blue, catching her off guard. “Alberto Argenti with his claws dipped in vamp blood; he was ruthless at the time and vied for the spot of Alpha. He also raped my mother and forced my father to watch.” He says through gritted teeth, his jaw tensing up as he speaks. I l
Konstantin: The Heartless Beta 26. Weapon Acquired
KonstantinKai called me late afternoon the following day to let me know that the witches had arrived at the estate and I needed to get my ass over there. Cat is there as well; she wouldn’t stay put no matter how Kai ordered her to.Sounds like Cat, ha.The anticipation is at a dangerous level inside of me; I need to know what we can do to eliminate the obstacle in front of us. Everything rides on this weapon, and my instincts tell me it needs to be done no matter what.I stop my motorcycle in front of the mansion and run inside, catching the faint whiff of blood - the usual scent of these witches from Norway. They’ve dabbled in such dark magic that their entire aura is tainted blood red with the same smell as a fresh kill. Kai hates them but knows he needs them.When she sees me enter the living room, Marle turns her head, and so does Kai and Cat. “Brother,” he greets me with a nod and beckons me over.
