ELENA

My frantic hands squeezed up my dress at the anxiety eating me up. Again, I stared out the window. It was oddly quiet down there, a big contrast to what I thought it would look like today, judging from Vince's cryptic words.

I couldn't sleep all night. His words had gone into a loop in my head. And when I woke up this morning, I was an anxious mess.

He didn't return to the room either. If he did, then maybe I would have gotten the chance to ask what he meant. When he said they knew he was gonna come for me. And that they knew we had a thing. How? Who could possibly tell them that? No one back home knew about it.

Should have asked him when he said it. But I was more fixed on the fact that he said he was here for me and not business. So I never got to ask, and now, the unasked questions are creating chaos in my mind.

I peeked out the window again. A few guards were on patrol. Aside from them, there was no one else down there.

Where's Vince?

The door bursts open. I turned and

    TRENT The restaurant was mildly filled with low chattering. I barely walked in when a waiter approached me. “Welcome, Alpha Trent. Right this way, please.” He said with a bow. I shot him a half-assed smile and followed him briskly. A few heads turned and stared at me. I lowered my face, hating the damn attention. We arrived at the table and there she was, sitting so calmly with that mischievous, bitchy smile. “Thank you,” I waved off the waiter and he left. I slid into my seat, fuming. “You’re pushing it, you know that?”She grinned. “Good to see you too.”I snapped in a hushed voice. “What the hell, Tracy? Are we meeting in a restaurant now? In broad daylight? In front of a handful of people capable of spreading shitty rumors about us? Where's your head at?”She pouted, glancing around with a fake innocence. “I don't see the problem with having lunch with you in a restaurant like every normal person.”“Really?” I scoffed. She smiled, patting my hand softly. “I think you're ju

    VINCENo. I shut my eyes, and my damn ears. I didn't need her apologies. It'd only make me forgive her faster than I intended to. It'd make a fool of my anger.“I'm sorry, Vince…” She was trying to touch me again. I pushed back quickly. “Don't do that. Don't fucking apologize. I don't have the heart to forgive you. And don't try touching me if you don't want me pinning you on my bed and having my way with you. Do you understand?”Again, she was appalled. Her blared eyes; arched brows. She couldn't believe her ears. "You're not gonna forgive me...?""No."“Then what are you gonna do to me?” She asked weakly. The fact that I was already surrendering to me without a fight killed my resolve. I'd rather she blasts me. She fights me. That way, I'd be enraged and hurt her back. But she's all soft and vulnerable…my heart wouldn't let me do half the shit I wanna do. Damn you, Elena. “Are you gonna send me back to the rogues?”“I'll make you choose me, Elena. But not because I'm still head

    VINCE I was literally drilling holes in her pale body with how hard I was staring at her. But I couldn't get my eyes to look at anything else. She was lying peacefully on my bed. Looking every bit innocent and mesmerizing. And my stupid heart was thumping hard; so fucking hard. Every beat echoed her name.My dick was stretched hungrily in my pants. My fingers itched to ravage every inch of her body. Every part of my body was craving her in an insane intensity. The anger in my heart was being duelled by my desire for her. By the love I never wanna admit that I still have for her. By the sheer excitement of having her in sight again. When I said my goodbyes to her at the Rogue Pack, I was broken. I thought I'd never see her again. I'd never hold her again.But a while ago, she was in my arms, until I softly set her down on the bed. And I've been sitting here, debating if I'm still hopelessly obsessed with her or if I'm mad at her. It was hard to decide. I was feeling every shitty, i

    ELENA “Are you alright, Miss Elena?” Mr. Williams asked, looking at me with a grave level of concern. “I’m…fine,” I said, trying hard not to show how nervous I was. But hiding it only increased the suffocation I was feeling. There was a crippling knot in my chest. My fingers were shaky and numb. My heart was thumping so loud. And my feet were sweaty inside my shoes. I wasn't alright. How could I be? “It's just a meeting, Ma'am. Try to relax.” Mr. Williams said with a comforting smile. He did seem relaxed. Probably because this was his work and he's done it all his life.He's gone through such meetings. Held them. So he was naturally accustomed to them. I, on the other hand, had every reason to be freaking out. This was my first meeting — my first meeting as a proxy. And my first meeting, which could be seen as a war against my Mother. There was no way in hell I could be relaxed. No way. Every nerve in me was screaming at me to back off and just return home. I badly needed to t

  • My Mate's Father Wants Me    78|She never forgot about you

    LEONARDO I took a minute to remind myself that I had no reason to be as terrified as I was right now. But I couldn't help it. Not when he looked like that — dark, unhinged, and having that vicious and psychopathic side of him activated. The straight line scar from the explosion, perfectly tainting his right cheek, made him even more unhinged. Beastly. Like a damn barbarian. Except he was dressed in the finest Italian piece. “Vince…” I was gonna ask how he got into my room. But that would be me, underestimating him. So I stayed silent. But my feet were still pinned to the ground and I still wasn't moving. “You're not happy to see me?”“Of course I am…” I'd be throwing a million backflips if he didn't have that terrifying look on his face.“You didn't tell anyone that I was alive, did you?” He asked, head tilted to the side, eyes staring into my soul.I couldn't answer that. But when I tried, my answers came in stutters. “How could I…if I didn't know you were…alive?” He chuckled.

    ELENA “Elena.” The voice woke me from my brief nap, and I slowly sat up. Seeing my hand still intertwined with my father's brought tears to my eyes instantly. But knowing there was someone else in the room gave me the courage to hold back the tears. I looked up, expecting to see the doctor, but it wasn't him. “Mr. Williams?” He was Father's attorney.He gave a prim smile and a curt bow. “Hello, Ma'am.”“Is there a problem?” I asked, pretty unsure why he was here, looking all serious and in a business mood. Father was still unconscious. So who did he come here for?“Would you give me a few minutes? There's something I need to tell you.”“Uh…sure. I'll meet you in the hallway.”He nodded and left first. I took my time, removing my fingers from Father's, staring at him for seconds, kissing his forehead before leaving the room and going to join Mr. Williams on the seat. “Is there a problem?” I asked nervously. He didn't say a word. But opened his suitcase and took out a file. “Her
