LOGINClara Torres (POV)"I'm so sorry you had to find out this way, I also didn't know about him until a few hours ago before Marcus called you. Seeing how sensitive and demanding the situation was, he had no choice," Elena cooed at me, hugging me tightly."It's okay sis, I'm just surprised that a rogue can be out and about. That fool is just so annoying, anything could have happened to him if caught by the wrong person. I can't believe he deliberately attacked Marcus. Briel is nothing but trouble," I responded, although I was still upset with Marcus for not telling me earlier."Briel must have attacked him because he saw him with you. Trying to protect his sister," Elena said, relaxing on the couch."Seriously, he has to learn how to take care of himself first before indulging in other people's business," I rolled my eyes and hissed, the look on his face while talking earlier annoyed the shit out of me."How I wish I had a brother who could lay down his life for me without counting the co
Martha Blackthorn I drove like a mad woman all the way home, I was so pissed off by Phyna's stupidity. We could have pulled off the whole plan this time if not for his silly, 'waiting for the perfect time to strike' song he kept singing the whole time.No, our plan has been exposed to Andrew and I bet he wouldn't let this off the hook without destroying us until our smoke ceases from the surface of the earth. My phone rang again, igniting the fury within me when I saw the caller ID 'Blackthorn'.Why the hell is he calling me? That good-for-nothing husband of mine. He wouldn't cease to blow my phone off whenever I'm not at home.I grabbed the phone from the safe and turned it off, tossed it behind my seat and continued my drive.Thirty minutes later I got home, left the car and the gate open and walked down the passage to the living room. I ignored the stupid glances the maid threw my way, wondering what happened.I slumped on the chair, dropped my bag on the floor and sent my heels f
Phyna POV"Arggggh! Look at this dumbass fool spilling the milk anyway. I will make sure they regret every single thing they say." Phyna banged the door in fury, his chest rising and falling in a blind rage.He removed the earphone attached to his ears after it got disconnected with a screeching sound.I really hope they all rot in hell. Those fools never learn."Hey, go and get their families and lock them up. If this mission turns out to be a failure do not hesitate to end their lives as well. They brought this upon themselves," I ordered, referring to Briel's parents and the bald man.I knew Briel would end up being a total nuisance to the rogue family one day. He has that different aura in him that sets my heart into a beat it doesn't understand, but now such beat is becoming clearer."What a joke! I paid you for a simple task Phyna, but look at the mess you have created. Even a five year old will not make this kind of mistake. They should have been eliminated when they didn't ret
Marcus Kane (POV)"Bring the bald man to the meeting room immediately," Andrew put a call through before he went to sit at the chief seat designated for him.Briel eyes twitched and a dark scowl appeared on his face as he stared at Andrew from a distance."You think the bald man is going to give you what you want huh? That asshole will do everything to protect his family back home and that involves dying here if he has to," Briel said, glaring at Uncle Drake who has pushed the pen cup down the desk out of his reach."Why don't you bother about yourself and let him make his choice because either way he still has something to lose," Elder Rowan sneered at him."If you think that's the game, then who am I to argue? Supposing things might go your way, kindly remember me in your kingdom. Ah, the bald man might know who the veiled woman is anyway, I guess he was caught carrying out one of her ordeal," Briel continued, it seems like he has a problem of keeping his mouth shut when not spoken
Marcus Kane (POV)We waited for Andrew to finish his bath so we could proceed to the meeting room, where the remaining elders were already waiting. My eyes were fixated on Clara the entire time but she wouldn't spare me a glance.She was sitting on the couch with me but I couldn't muster enough gut to touch her or call her name, knowing how mad she was with me. I couldn't blame her for reacting this way nor did I blame myself for hiding the whole thing from her.Now that Briel has met with his sister, the next thing was to get information about what the rogues were planning alongside Southwest.I never trusted Blackthorn and Martha to begin with, my hairs always stand still whenever they visit when we were still in college.Martha's eyes have this insatiable glint in it anytime she watches far away into our pack, with a deep smirk I couldn't understand. For someone that talks a lot, mother would always disregard my concern about her friend.Of course, you wouldn't have a reason to sec
Andrew Kane (POV)The driveway was filled with smoke, the cars that were able to dodge the truck did but not without a scrape either to the car or their bodies.I called the hospital for an emergency so casualties will be attended to. The truck was empty, nobody was inside, my men nodded at me from their car and drove off.I obtained the dashcam from the truck and left as people started gathering around the scene. Lol. Well, I will see how this ends.Ben pulled the car back to the road, its steering wheel was shaking as he drove but he handled it well. It would take more than an hour to either book a ride or bring another car from the mansion.After spending eternity on the road, the high gate finally came into view. I watched how Ben's body heaved in relief. It was as if he was sitting on pins all this while. A dark chuckle escaped my throat, it made the hairs on my body stand still as we drove into the garage. I motioned for Ben to let me down at the front of the tower.I came down
Elena's POV"That's impossibleThe words came out flat. Dead. Because my father was dead. Had been dead for years. Everyone knew that."I know what I saw," Marcus said firmly. "Three wendigos lugging a man. And he cried out your name. He said his name was Victor Torres.""Could be a trick. Kael try
Elena’s POV“Let her go!"Andrew’s voice rang out through the air, ragged and urgent. I struggled against the hold of Kael’s wolves, their claws digging into my arms enough to bruise.“The trade is easy, Andrew.”Kael’s hand clutched the nape of my neck, his touch possessive and freezing. “She goes
Elena's Pov “You’re lying."“I am?"She took out a folded piece of paper from her pocket. Old, yellowed, and soaked with signatures. “That is a copy of the original contract. Read it for yourself.”She shoved it at me. I grabbed it, my hands trembling.The words swam before my eyes. Legalese. Pack
Elena's POV"You're glowing."I woke up to Clara's voice in my head the next morning. I sat up in bed, running my fingers over the place on my neck that, even now, tingled from Andrew's touch, his kiss, his whispered prayers of my name in his mouth."I'm not glowing," I grumbled, but my face felt h
