Se connecterAndrew Kane (POV)Mother was about to speak when she was interrupted by a loud deafening scream. We were all taken aback, staring at each other's faces with unasked questions.Our gaze drifted upstairs, where the scream came from. I shrugged, resuming our conversation. The scream interrupted again, this time it was louder than the first.Mother and I exchanged a knowing look before I bolted towards the stairs. The scream sounded like Selene's voice, I was already at her door in a fraction of second.Selene was lying on the floor with her legs spread apart and she was panting as beads of sweat formed on her forehead.LFeeling lost at what to do, I rushed to her side. Holding her hand, she held me tightly, sobbing silently."Are you okay, what's wrong? Do you need to sit on the bed? Talk to me, what's going on?" I asked in a fit of worry, staring at her pale face."We need to get her to the hospital immediately Andrew, quit asking her questions and start moving," Uncle said, standing a
Andrew Kane (POV)It was light out already and Lena just stumbled into a peaceful slumber, her chest rising and falling gently beside me.There was a knock at the door, my eyes rested on it wondering who it could be. Disentangling myself from Lena quietly so I wouldn't wake her, I walked to the door. What could be so important that it couldn't wait till tomorrow.I opened the door, it was a maid servant about to knock again when I flung the door open. She trembled backward, staring at the ground."What do you seek at this ungodly hour?" I asked, irritation clinging to the edge of my voice."I'm sorry to interrupt your sleep alpha, your mother sent for you," she relayed the message, her voice shaking."Why? Tell her that whatever she has to discuss can wait till tomorrow," I said, dismissing her but she refuses to move."She said your uncle is back and you should come greet him," closing my eyes in sheer distress, is she trying to trick me now just because she wants to talk to me.She
Marcus Kane (POV)I was taken aback by Clara's painful cry, I know she cries so easily but would she also cry over this. How are we supposed to have a normal conversation about her without it ending in tears?It was obviously my fault for making her upset but then I was the one bitten not her. She inflicted the pain, at this point maybe we should just cry together because what the hell am I supposed to do now.I was relieved that the area wasn't heavily crowded because of the judgemental glares that would have been thrown my way. I wasn't going to let her leave like the last time without resolving our issues. It does my mental health no good.Starting a fight I knew wouldn't end well was obviously one of my fortes. Why would I even pick a fight with her when it was me that has been ignoring her all this while. This is the second fight we are having in two weeks now.I pulled her into my arms, cradling her against my chest. I'm such a jerk that deserves no love. I can't even get the on
Clara Torres (POV)I followed him quietly from behind as he walked into the street, his broad shoulders rose and fell back in anger. Going back to the counter would do no good, Clement wouldn't let me for sure, knowing the kind of power Marcus has over him.I sigh in sheer frustration, watching the busy street as we walk by. Marcus was already seated on the bench at the end of it when I met him."What do you want?" I asked, my voice devoid of any emotion whatsoever because I'm tired of playing this game with him."What do I want? Seriously? That's all you have to say for what happened there? Are you for real?" Marcus asked, looking up at me, his eyes glinting with that usual warning of "don't push me" whenever he is angry."Yeah, because I'm confused. You just showed up out of nowhere and started fighting everyone for no reason. So make me understand the motivation behind your actions. It could have cost me my job if Clement wasn't a nice person," I said, throwing my hands in the air
Marcus Kane (POV )The drive to Clement's Bar as inscribed on the plastic billboard was less than twenty minutes and as expected it was crowded. I parked in the only open space I saw, alighted from the car. I took a deep breath before walking towards the faded glass door which appeared fragile, like it would crash down any moment with a sudden push.I marched towards the crochet section ignoring the other door which I was hoping she wouldn't be inside serving those drunkards. "Hey, how's your day going? Please have you seen Clara around?" I asked the brunette I met at the front desk, absorbed in what looked like a singlet she was knitting. She immediately raised her head to look at me with a beautiful smile on her face. And I saw her name on the tag attached to her chest "Katie""Oh yeah, she was here until late evening before she was transferred to the bar section. You know, Clement said she has what it takes to handle the customers well. They wouldn't stop asking of her, left with
Marcus Kane (POV)Andrew was such a jerk, all I did was help him get along with his woman and all I ever got in return was either threat or beating. How could he even think of twisting my fingers, this would be my last time helping him, I swear.I fumed as I ran a quick shower, my day was spent trying to interrogate that dumbass Briel. He refuses to give anything away until Andrew comes. He would rather sleep to death than look at me.His chances of leaving here is nothing but slim, next time he would pick his fight with sense. I went back into the bathroom to brush my teeth, since I'm going to Clara's place, I might as well appear refreshed.My heart thud when I thought of her last time here. I haven't been nice to her, hell, I was such a jerk ignoring her for days now."What if she has moved on?" my wolf asked, staring back at me in the mirror.I spat out the foam in my mouth, "there's no way she would do such to us," I argued back, curling my hand into a fist as I stared at him."W
Elena Torres (POV)It is so surprising how a little change to how you look can change your mood and aura. I raised my eyes up so the tears that have pooled in my eyes won't ruin my make up. Andy insisted on having me smell nice and look good without telling me the reason.The fact that he was so in
Marcus Kane (POV)It was early Wednesday morning, the following day after the beach date I was still in a deep sleep with Clara glued to my body, providing the warmth I needed unlike the other nights I have had alone.She has a soft skin that almost melted on mine, her breath was slow and steady wi
Elena Torres PovThe drive home was faster than I imagined, my stomach got sicker the closer we got. I had no interest in whatever Marcus was saying. He keeps bickering all in the name of entertainment and wouldn't stop mentioning Clara's name.The mansion came to view a few blocks away, standing ta
Andrew Kane (POV)These days I have been so occupied with family matters that I'm neglecting the work on my desk. The new properties acquired needed my signature and other things. Being a real estate manager and the biggest one among the pack was more than a blessing.The trust that has been built
