登入Marcus Kane (POV)Hoping that Clara would come to the mansion without being invited by Lena is like wishing for a santa-claus to appear in April. She was indeed the first woman that has made such an impression on me.The women I've met in the past all cleave to me like a leech. Knowing that I'm the beta, some even tricked their way to my bed anytime I went out. But Clara, she worked tirelessly as if I wasn't in the picture. She seldomly asks me for money even though I knew she needed it.It's certain that she was indeed my reward from the moon. Her type was rare and I know it, I'm not even interested in finding my own true mate. She's perfect for me and knows how to make things work out for our greater good.Staring at the rose flower on the seat beside me, my smile widened. I hope she loves it though. It was one of the days of the week that I really hated going to her place of work. Friday, I wouldn't be surprised if she was serving tables again despite what happened the last time.I
Marcus Kane (POV)"What are you afraid of, do you still have a sister here or something or you think I was the one behind your parents' exile?" I probed further, determined to find out whatever it was before leaving."And what are you going to do if you find out? Leave her, like she's some kind of demon to be exorcised because she's a part of us?" Briel asked, turning backward swiftly, his voice rising over the edge."Oh, she is a she! This is getting more interesting than I expected. So what has this person got to do with me, as far as I am concerned I don't have a lot of women in my life. Did I by chance treat her wrongly because I know for a fact that this 'her' is a family," I said, shocked by the revelation behind his anger even though it was the whole story already but it makes sense.I tried recollecting if I had treated any woman wrongly in the past but nothing comes to mind. Who then is this person? Of course, it can't be Selene, there's no such connection between them."You
Marcus Kane (POV)Curious to find out what was behind Briel's grievances against me, I turned towards the last building in the mansion. Facing the east where the prison was located. Earlier in the day, I was busy with filing reports on Blackthorn actions.Analyzing and restrategizing on how to counter him whenever he strikes but one thing is sure, Blackthorn wouldn't act on impulse without paying us a visit first. He has gathered enough support from the other smaller packs around him through threat.Shaking my head off the thought, the guard manning the door pushed the door open for me after bowing with his hand to his heart. I nodded in response and entered.I went straight to Briel's ward. His back was against the door, bent over something which he quickly hid when he sensed my presence."Hey, man, how are they treating you here?" I asked, trying to start the conversation on a light note.I pushed out a chair attached to the table in the middle of the room. Although it's a prison, w
Andrew Kane (POV)I saw the alphas off to their cars after the meeting ended, securing their trust and pledge in the meeting. They promised to keep me updated about Blackthorn actions in the Southwest and tried convincing the alphas that could be of help. Seeing that we were outnumbered by Blackthorn's men.Jason was the last alpha standing by, his cold face didn't bother me because I could see him shivering behind this fake demeanor of his. It appears as if Blackthorn had reached out to him first. He kept crashing the back of his head which I think was a habit of his.I opened the door of his small car for him to get in, his gaze rested on me longer than it had during the whole meeting. Deliberating on whether to enter the car or not.I pushed him inside the car and entered too. His driver looked at us and I smiled at him."Bring it out and don't bother wasting my time as you can see my wife is waiting for me," I stated, my deep voice leaving no room for arguments."I don't know what
Andrew Kane (POV)When we arrived at the restaurant where I had made reservations with other alphas, I led Lena to the table at the far end of the restaurant where others were already seated. I didn't bother interrupting the restaurant's daily routine by renting the whole hall. The spot I chose was stress free and accommodating enough.Others stood up when we got there, Lena cleaved to my elbow with her gaze looking ahead with her chin up. My heart swells up with pride, I didn't know she had that feisty spirit in her. Just what else I still don't know she's capable of doing. All her skills and talents take me by surprise. I pulled out a chair for her to sit, pulling it inside a little bit after her. I took my seat by her left and the rest sat down in turn. Even though I was the youngest of the alphas, they still accord their respect to me as the biggest pack leader."Sorry for keeping you all waiting. I will do better in future," I apologize with my hands clasped together."There's
Elena Torres (POV)Andy led me to Ken's office to eat. He already ordered a fried chicken salad and mashed potatoes. My mouth watered and my stomach grumbled in protest at the sight of it. Reminding me of my negligence to eat dinner yesterday and today I missed breakfast also.I didn't miss Ken's incessant stare at me as I ate. He was engrossed in a conversation with Andy about Selene's present condition.She was getting better according to him and the surgery site has started healing too. Being a half witch and a wolf, she has a faster healing rate than normal wolves.My eyes grew bigger when it dawned on me that I had a meeting with the women this morning. I sigh in frustration. I kept digging my own grave. It totally escaped my mind while I was running away last night. Even though I haven't missed any of our meetings, I don't want to either because I've begun to like them.They weren't scared to hide their disapproval concerning any issues and the way their eyes were trained anytim
Andrew's PovI walked quietly toward the study room, carefully analyzing what Selene said back there. She had dared to use a spell under my nose and deceived everyone.Southwest wasn't just any pack but a mixture of werewolves and witches. Selene was half a wolf and witch because her father had fall
Andrew's Pov Watching over Elena was the least I could do in this kind of predicament, the pack seer and doctor said she wouldn't be opening her eyes anything soon.Her frail appearance and helplessness breaks my heart. The doctor mentioned that even though the physical injuries have been healed, t
Elena Torres (POV)I shut my eyes tightly when I heard the sound of footsteps coming towards my room. It sounded heavier and tense as it drew closer, sleeping in the same way they left me yesterday with my pale lips and white face.My stomach grumbled loudly, I prayed no one would hear it because I
Selene Blackthorn (POV)Andrew dashed into the room panting, the pain in his eyes was very obvious. His fangs and claws were out, almost shifting. Everywhere there was dead silence, not even a single noise could be heard. He told us that he was going for a meeting with the pack members that were his
