VINCE.

Coming to these creepy woods and ancient caves wasn't on my bingo card whatsoever.

But the downtown elder had referred us to come here instead. We're to meet a certain Mr. Ri. He's a sorcerer, and he's supposedly going to give us the answers to our questions.

“I'd never understand why these sorcerers would live in creepy ass places like this.” Luke scoffed, dusting off a greeny, slimy shirt that just clung to his shirt.

It's pointless, actually. Every tree has something icky on it. Ev

  • My Mate's Father Wants Me    215|Epilogue

    VINCE “That boy's a piece of shit and you know it!’ “What?! Daddy, you don't get to say that!” Claire was fuming as much as I was. “What? I don't get to tell you the truth? You're mingling with a piece of shit and it's my job to make sure you realize that and put an end to it!”“You're always saying that about every guy I hang out with. You always talk down on them and call them nasty names.”“Because they're all assholes, Lady!” I said in exasperation. “You have such awful taste in picking male friends, it's breaking my heart.”She gasped, folding her arms dramatically. She'd hit my face if she could. I know that. “Have I ever complained about your female friends? No. Why? Because they're perfect. You've got good taste in picking female friends. So maybe you should just stick to doing that.”“You're believable. But no, I'm not gonna do what you want.”“Oh, Jesus.” This little ass lady is trying my patience on a night as perfect as this. “Matter of fact, I'm gonna go call him rig

  • My Mate's Father Wants Me    214|Finale

    VINCELeo gave another frustrated sigh that got Richard guffawing like a maniac and got me fighting hard to hold down my chuckle. “What's so funny you two?” Leo grunted out, bending to take another shot with his cue stick. We’re in my clubhouse, unwinding with drinks and games. It's a random Saturday evening. We thought a good bro-time out here in my clubhouse would be therapeutic. But so far it's been messy. Leo's in a losing snooker game with Richard. Actually, he's always losing in these games against Richard or me. And then I lose to Richard most of the time. Richard's the genius when it comes to games. “I'm just thinking you might wanna swallow your pride and forfeit. He's already whooped your ass enough.” I was taunting Leo. “Yeah, right.” Leo rolled his eyes. Richard was having a good laugh again. You could tell he was really enjoying this. He's actually a fucking humble dude. If I had half his game skills, I'd never shut up about it. I'll gloat in Leo's face every fucking

  • My Mate's Father Wants Me    213|CALL ME

    RICHARD I spent roughly an hour plus with the doctor before finally stepping out of his office. Tracy was sitting in the hallway and quickly got up when she saw me step out. “Father,” she began nervously. She had eye bags from crying and the sleepless night from watching her mother alone for days. Her hair was rough and unkempt. I doubt she's washed it in days. It still breaks my heart that she didn't contact me sooner. Why did she think she couldn't? “What did he say about Mother's condition? How bad is it?” I sighed, running a hand through my hair. The doctor said a lot. Something about the bones becoming terminally weak. Could lead to paralysis. Could also lead to losing her sight and becoming an invalid and stuff. They all sounded serious but they also sounded like she needed more experienced health practitioners taking care of her. This mid-class Pack and doctors would kill her faster than she should die. “Father?” Tracy tugged at my hand. “Please tell me. What did the do

  • My Mate's Father Wants Me    212|Woman of my dreams

    VINCE I watched with a smile on my face as the cars trooped into my house. They stopped a little distance away from us. The guards opened one of the doors and Cheryl popped out, excitedly. She was finally discharged from the hospital. Both her and her son, Bryan.She indeed looks healed. She's all radiant and elegant, like the old Cheryl.“Cheryl!”“Elena!”Their screams were ear-bugging, and it got worse as they got into a tight embrace, laughing and sobbing at the same time. Watching them gave me a bittersweet feeling. Also made me realize Cheryl's literally the only mother figure Elena’s got now. There's no more Lucy and there's no more Vanessa. Just Cheryl. No doubt they're gonna miss each other so much when we eventually move to Switzerland. I can't allow that. I can't separate Elena from the only motherly affection left for her.So I'm gonna have to make arrangements for Cheryl to visit us every month or once every two months. I'll have a private jet to pick her up if I have

  • My Mate's Father Wants Me    211|Have a good life

    VINCEThe expectant knock on my door made me hurriedly finish the glass of whiskey I've been brooding over for minutes. I set the glass down on the tray just as the door slowly opened. Miguel walked inside, bowing. “You asked for me?” “Yes. Uh, have a seat.” He bowed again and settled into one of the seats. I went to mine, settling in smoothly. We sat in silence for seconds, before I could think of the right words to begin this conversation. “I thought we should talk.”He nodded. “What's it about?”“Uh,” God, this is weird. It's not something I've said before. But it has to be said. So...“I just thought I should thank you.”He arched his brow. “What?”Yeah, I was expecting that reaction. “For the years of loyalty and servitude,” I continued, trying to keep my voice firm and pick my words right. “For always having my back and being willing to dive into messes for me. I'm really grateful.”His expression was blank. I was already feeling awkward. I needed him to save my ass but he

  • My Mate's Father Wants Me    210|End of an era

    VINCE The arguments between Declan and Leo didn't seem like they were gonna end anytime soon. I'd stayed silent, allowing them to let out the deep pent-up hatred they've got for each other. However, it's taking forever, and I don't have that much time. So yeah, I need to interfere now. “Psst, Leo, that's enough.” I tried calling his attention but the man was lost in his rage. He wasn't sane enough to hear me. Even Richard had gotten exhausted from trying to talk him out of his rage. Don't get me started on Declan who's spewing the dirtiest words in his Vocabulary. I can't tell if he's just unapologetically gutsy or just fucking reckless. Being so flatly rude with Leo in my house is kinda suicidal and he's taking all that risk so fucking boldly. I lost it when they both jumped to their feet ready to throw hands. “I said, that's enough!” I thundered, standing in between them. “The one who throws the first punch will be at risk of losing his fucking arm.”I turned to Leo, making su

    ELENA PETERS I sat in the taxi, lost in my thoughts. I didn’t know how I was going to handle being with Vince in his house. Especially after what had transpired between us.I had tried everything in my power to ensure I didn’t hop on this taxi to his house. But it was fruitless. Cause my father wa

    “Elena,” Aunt Vanessa’s confused gaze took me in and then she glanced at Vince and back at me again. “Elena, dear. Are you alright?” She reached for my hand and I flinched. Much because of the guilt choking me. I was pale and shaky, also speechless. Vince backed away, raking his fingers through h

    “What?” Trent's eyes widened in some phony confusion. His attempt to deny it tripled my rage. My fists tightened as tears clogged my vision.He's a jerk. He's an asshole. How didn't I see that any sooner? How did it take Vince manipulating my life to see through Trent's deceit?Maybe because he hid
