ELENA PETERS

I got into my car and sped off, heading to Vince’s house.

My hands gripped the steering tightly, gritting my teeth in rage and another intense, unsettling feeling.

The news had left me with no appetite, and so I didn't join my parents for breakfast.

I was way too jittery by how fast the news was spreading, and my parents stayed beside me. They only left me alone hours after midday, and that was when I got out of the house, needing to speak with Vince.

I do appreciate their care.

  • My Mate's Father Wants Me    106|Can we talk?

    VINCE Coming to this godforsaken party wasn't my idea. It was all Leo's. And I was hating him for it, not until the sharp scent of lavender hit my nostrils, hardening my dick in a second. My hungry eyes swiped the crowd, searching for the source of the scent. You don't wanna know how fucking shocked I was seeing her at a table, getting all close and shit with Liam-fucking-Roosevelt. I was shocked out of my mind. First, I didn't expect to see her here. Miguel didn't mention she was coming here. Second, why the fuck was she glowing so much? It kinda seemed like being separated from me wasn't hard on her at all. Like I've lost my sanity. I'm a walking ghost. But she seems fucking alright. Even prettier. That's kinda pissing me off right now. And third, why was that bastard whispering into her ears?!I gulped my drink and placed it on the table. Took a step towards them but got stopped by a voice.“Vince, I was just looking for you.” It was Mr. Mario, a big shot in the business world

    A few weeks later…ELENA *“We can't argue with the investors over the phone and we certainly can't send over the lawyer to do that. It's gonna be unprofessional on our part.” Mr. Franklin, one of the major shareholders, aired his opinion on the matter.I let his words twirl in my head. And guess what? He's right. We're trying to negotiate a contract worth over ten billion dollars. Doing that over the phone would be sacrilegious. “So what are you suggesting?” I asked. “You should be the one to meet up with him, Ma'am. Not us. You should meet with Mr. Roosevelt and discuss this with him. I heard he's pretty cranky but also levelheaded. I'm sure you'd be able to break through to him.”“Cranky, huh?” I puffed. This wasn't gonna be easy. That's why none of them wanna meet him. I'd avoid meeting him, too, if there was someone else I could push the responsibility to. But there's none. “Yeah. But I'm sure you'll be fine.” He flashed me an apologetic smile. I sighed exhaustedly. This mee

    ELENA My outburst was met with an icy silence. Mother paled. Went almost breathless. “Father's never gonna forgive you for what you did to him. The same way I'm never gonna forgive your daughter for what she did to me. She's gonna regret it. I swear to both of you!” I was way too enraged to mince words or try to tone it down. Mother finally got a grip and nervously cleared her throat. “Elena, dear…” Mother tried touching me but I evaded her touch. “I didn't mean to hurt your Father. I love him so much, I wouldn't dare to hurt him. I just…”“I don't wanna hear it.” I stopped her coldly. “Just get out of this building and never come back. Until Father wakes up. If I see you both around before then, you're gonna be sorry.”I picked up my purse, shoving past Mother. I stopped in front of Tracy. My gaze dropped to her baby bump and I snorted in disgust. “That child is gonna be the most miserable and heartless bastard ever born. How does it feel, knowing you're gonna be its Mother?”Sh

    ELENA “Are you okay, Ma'am?” Miguel asked again, glancing at me. I was fidgeting so much in my seat. Tugging my blazer countless times. Taking deep breaths. I was showing every sign that I wasn't okay.Still, I nodded with a smile. “Yes, I am.”He didn't look the slightest bit convinced. And just kept staring at me. He wasn't driving today. I wish he were. That way, he wouldn't be assessing me so closely. “You know you can tell me if there's a problem.” He said, staring unwaveringly at me. “Okay. Then maybe you should start by telling me if you're really giving Vince updates about me. You never answered that question.”His gaze grew frozen for a bit. And then he backed off with a slight clearing of his throat. “I'll take it that you're just nervous about the meeting, Ma'am. Don't bother answering my question.”That's it???!!My rage hit the roof but before I could lash out at him, the car was already cornering into the company's sparse surroundings. Miguel stepped out of the car,

    VINCE “She's asking for 20% of your properties, Alpha Vince.” The lawyer in charge of my divorce with Vanessa informed me. “What?” Leonardo was the first to react. He seemed incensed by her outrageous audacity. Not as incensed as I was though. “She's refused to bargain or reach an agreement. She also…” The lawyer faltered and paused. “She what?” I asked briskly. “She also threatened to involve the Pack elders if you keep insisting on divorcing her without giving her any shares.”This is what I get for handing over my Alpha authorities to a monstrous son and his witch of a mother. They're using that authority to get their way at everything. “Can I give you a bit of advice, Alpha Vince?” The lawyer asked solemnly. “What is it?”“Maybe…maybe it wouldn't be such a bad idea to give her a bit of your shares. Certainly not all 20% but give her something. Trying to divorce her without any shares would be hard and seen as being wicked on your part.”“Next time,” I began, with a muffled

    Two weeks later…ELENA “What is it you wanna know, Miss Elena?” Dr. Gary asked. He seemed composed but I didn't miss his fidgety legs under the table and his sweaty hands, regardless of how tightly he clasped them together. I took off my dark shades, placing them on the table. “I'll go straight to the point.”“Please do, Miss Elena.” “What did you inject my father with to keep him unconscious?” I dropped the question. His eyes popped. “Better still, tell me who ordered you to inject him with that drug.”His lips quivered but somehow he managed a throaty laugh. “What are you talking about, Ma'am?”I didn't expect him to immediately confess but I certainly didn't want him denying and stressing me out about it either. I already had a long, exhausting day. “You know what I'm talking about. I'm sure it's not gonna be easy for you to admit that you hurt my Father. But I'm also sure you didn't mean to. You've been his doctor forever, and you've always taken the best care of him.”His emo
