LOGINDaphne's PovMy hands trembled visibly but I leaned on the sides of the table for a second. "I need you, Daphne. You belong to me!" Kian's voice echoed across the restaurant. Instantly Beta Paul approached the table holding his phone. "Kian, you need to calm down," he whispered placing his hands on Kian's shoulders. He redirected his gaze towards us and said, "Apologies, Miss Debby. Mr Kian has been feeling a little overwhelmed recently. Is there anything I can do to make you let it slide?" Felix suddenly chipped in, "My wife gets flustered easily and I don't appreciate Mr Kian's disrespect. He should know better next time than to touch a married woman without her permission." I was surprised at how well Felix played my husband's role, as if he had been rehearsing for it. He needs a reward for being so thorough anyway. "Babe, let's get out of here," he added tucking away a loose strand of hair from my face. I nodded lightly taking one last glance at Kian who appeared downcas
Kian's PovThe last time I felt so uncertain and on edge was when the call came in years ago. It started like every other day, I returned from the company and met my mother sobbing profusely in the living room. "What is it? Did someone try to hurt you?" I groan loudly, trying so hard to tame Dylan. She kept sobbing refusing to say a word at first, this got me reeled up thinking my father sent someone to harass her as he usually does. "Say something, mother! What did he do this time around?" I inquired seething. Mother lifted her napkin and wiped her cheeks carefully before saying, "Have your seat, Kian. Something happened last night!" The line between reality and oblivion was so thin that I struggled so hard to stay still. With my fist clenched and heart thumping loudly against my chest I wondered, what occurred? "Go ahead and tell me what happened?" Her tearshot eyes pierced deep into my soul the moment I locked gaze with her. "I got a call from the Pack a few minutes ago. You
Daphne’s PovTaking a minute I excused myself from the buzz in the studio and went towards the balcony. A petite blonde who was working as one of the beauticians asked warmly,“Do you need anything, Miss Debby? I could get it for you…” her words trailed softly.I waved gently,“Nothing really, I just need to make a quick call,” I replied.She bowed gently before walking back to the dressing room.I sighed softly. Felix would always make me do the things I don't want to. Why did I lose to him in the chess game? Bloody disturbance!I hated the whole showbiz that comes with the celebrity life. It's quite questionable how you never have anyone around you telling you the truth, all you have are asslickers!I dialed Pen’s number, but at first it failed to connect. Trying for the second time she answered immediately,“Hello, Miss Debby,”Her voice was a little shaky and she seemed quite disoriented. So I asked,“How are you?”“I'm fine, ma. Is there anything you need me to help with? I'm tr
“At least send a message, Kian. Don’t leave her calls coming in without any answers. She is your mother, don’t forget that!” Paul said lightly before turning off the ignition. I sighed deeply reaching for my briefcase before getting out of the car. Paul stepped out and tried to take my briefcase but I refused. “I will hold it, Man. Let's just go inside,” We walked quietly into the hotel, and the receptionist was friendly as usual but I was not in the mood to return the energy. I slouched on the armchair the moment we stepped into the suite. My mind kept running in circles from the moment the man named Felix walked into the office holding the young boy. This is the worst day of my life! It was hard to bring myself to understand what was truly going on around Daphne. I was holding on to a thin line of hope and that's the reason I am not running off to Gex-luxury to face the situation at hand. Going off and asking for an explanation and getting answers to all the questions that flo
Daphne’s POV I hummed lightly to the tune blasting from the speaker while Davina and I drove along the streets of Vegas. It looked so organized with everyone moving around their daily activities like normal individuals. Unfortunately, the nightlife here was crazy! However, it was good for business! I stepped on the brakes slowly, coming to a halt just before the zebra crossing at the intersection. My voice was slightly increasing with every verse that played while I tapped my fingers simultaneously with the beat. “Are you good, sweetie?” I asked Davina who was so engrossed in the fashion game that I became invisible. Her jade green eyes stared briefly in my direction, but she went back to putting blush on her model’s face. “I'm fine, mommy. Aren’t we there yet?” she questioned. “Soon, sweetie. I'm certain Uncle Felix and Davis must have gotten to Grandpa’s company.” Davina placed her iPad down and expressed, “I can’t wait to see the smile on Grandpa’s face when we arrive at
Kian’s POVA week later. The loud murmurings from amongst the council elders made my ears twitch uncontrollably. Beta Paul mindlinked, “It would be better to drop this case, Alpha. Half of these Elders are for your mother and it is making it difficult for your verdict to be placed!” I looked in his direction and replied, “I am the Alpha of this Pack, Paul. My mother’s authority cannot be greater than mine!” Next, an elder stood up angrily, “The Luna outrightly insulted the Alpha’s authority and this council. She must be punished regardless of her title!” “You are speaking gibberish, How dare you speak of the Luna like she is some lowly pack member? This is the Luna of Firedon Pack and don’t forget the Queen Mother acknowledged her choice! Sit down if you have nothing important to say.” An elder supporting my mother shouted. This went on for a couple of minutes, and then my mother decided to say something. She stood up carefully, looking at everyone closely. “Is this a hall fill
