Kian’s POV“Kian!” The atmosphere around the hall shifted the moment Cynthia burst through the door looking like she would kill at the slightest nudge. I raised my head, gazing at the insane woman I married, disrupting the important meeting I was having with the elders of the Pack. “Are you blind? Can’t you see there is an important meeting going on here?” I questioned sternly. Cynthia looked around and laughed hysterically, “Oh please! All of you are jokers and I don’t give a fuck if you are trying to improve the Pack’s growth!” I chewed the inside of my mouth slowly. “I would pardon your rubbish just this once! Now leave quietly,” I ordered. Instead of respecting my orders, Cynthia went ahead to topple a table over with her wolf strength. A low growl escaped her lips, “You are fucking stupid for saying that! I am not leaving unless you come with me to our matrimonial room. Is that too much to ask from my husband?” she shouted slamming her hands against another table. I groa
Daphne’s POV “Slow down both of you,” I yelled. Davina and Davis quickly came to a halt pouting innocently. “We were not going too fast Mommy. You have to keep up…” Davis protested. I exhaled sharply after running a few meters to keep up with those tiny legs. “You both were going too fast without knowing Mommy could get exhausted,” I replied ruffling Davis’s hair. “Not again, mommy. I'm a grown-up!” he cried out. Eric cleared his throat while he closed the gap between us. “Can’t you see mommy is panting? Cut her some slacks, babies.” “Look beads of sweat trailing down like a waterfall off a cliff on mommy’s forehead!” Davina pointed at me giggling. I love them regardless even if they pick on me at every chance they get. “This only happened because I was chasing after you both. Henceforth you stay by my side, both of you!” I instructed firmly. “We are sorry mommy,” they chorused. The Bellagio Art gallery was so enchanting and elegant. I could see the reasons why it dominates
Daphne’s POVDavina gave us a scare but the doctor confirmed she was just having a flu attack. She seemed to have been stressed lately and that was the reason my baby almost lost consciousness. The feeling of knowing something terrible would have happened to my daughter lingered in my mind and at that moment I realized all of this was not worth it. Revenge, Kian, influence, power anything I could think about!I simply want my family to be safe and happy. Davis kept crying non-stop however watching him snore softly by his twin sister’s side made my heart melt. They looked so perfect. A few minutes later Eric walked into the room holding a tray. “How are you doing, Debby?” he asked placing the tray by the side. “Lower your voice, father. Do you want to wake the twins?” I questioned reaching for the glass of water. “Not really, I'm only concerned about your health. You barely had my sleep last night and now you are here watching the twins. At least have an hour rest, I will watch ove
Kian’s POVThe scenery in front of me was vague, but I kept staring at the Pack from my room’s balcony. I took a slow drag from the cigar in my left hand, and after a few seconds, I puffed it into the air. My head felt a little fuzzy but in a good way. The endless questions that filled my mind suddenly faded the moment I started smoking. Since Daphne left, you can say I have become a cigarette addict but then it was the only way I could feel better. I sat there while the sun shone high in the sky, it was both a pleasant sight and a hot one. Suddenly I heard the sound of my door closing, “Who’s that?” I barked. The footsteps stopped a few inches behind me, “What's up man?” Paul asked slouching on the second seat. “Nothing I'm just chilling. The noise outside this room is not something I enjoy, and you know this. What do you have for me? How is the trial going?” I asked, crushing the cigar butt on the ashtray. He raised an eyebrow, “Why are you smoking? Is the weather not hot alr
Daphne’s POVMy mind stopped processing any information for the first couple of minutes. I turned around with my head spinning while hot tears stung the side of my eyes. Where is this coming from? I thought silently. Davina stood up and walked towards me, “Mommy, is it true that we are cute bastards? Where is Daddy? I want my daddy, other kids have their daddies why am I different!!” she yelled, tossing her toys on the ground. I froze for a few seconds, my mind going in different directions. “Mommy,” Davis called out. I veered around and picked Davina from the floor. We made our way back to the bed and I carried Davis on my thigh too. Exhaling sharply I said, “Firstly, both of you are not bastards! You are not unwanted, I know things have not been the best around here but know mommy loves you so much and has been trying her best to give you the life you deserve!”Davina was not having it, she asked again, “Then why don’t you give us our daddy. I want to see my daddy, Isabelle
Daphne’s POV“Why did you do it, Felix?” He smiled trying to lighten the mood. “Do what exactly, sis. I don't understand what you are poking at.” I narrowed my gaze unfazed by the stunt he was trying to pull before me. “Do I look like a child to you? I know you returned to the lounge because you were not at home when I called your housekeeper. What did you do?” I asked him sternly. Felix exhaled sharply, “Fine, you got me. I could not get my mind off the truth that you were in so much pain because of that man so I decided to teach him a lesson.” I inhaled weakly, massaging my temple. “What did you do? Wait a minute, did you hurt him?” I inquired hoping for the worst. He reclined defeatedly, “No, I didn't. He was clearly wasted and the waitress saw us together so any mishaps can be linked to Gex-Luxury. I just drove him back to his hotel.” I exhaled sharply shooting my eyes open. I gulped down the water in front of me, “Thank you for not acting irrational!” I addedHe flexed
