~Allister~

It was obvious Jess was super exhausted.

After grabbing a quick dinner, she slept the rest of the way home and only woke up when we arrived at the hotel.

Ten minutes later, after watching her climb the stairs and enter her room, I’m outside her door, holding a warm cup of milk.

I knock twice before she pulls the door open.

For a heartbeat, I’m unable to breathe, it seems like I've forgotten how to...

Jess stands at the door, freshly showered, hair still wet, and wearing a nightdress

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   273. I cant be the woman you cheat on her with

    We are actually lucky that the weekend won’t fully kick off until Saturday, so the cafe isn’t exactly crowded.“Fuck, I don't know. I just saw them and reacted. I didn't stop to think what I was doing. Just the thought of Richard touching you like...” His fists clench, and his voice trails off as he tries to regain his composure.He looks angrier by the second. Angry at himself for losing control, and maybe angry at me, too, for having this strange hold on him.“Look, I'm not saying I agree with you, but I understand what you did to a point.”His eyes snap to mine in shock. “Really?”“I would be lying if I said I haven't had similar possessive feelings,” I admit reluctantly.For a second, he just stares at me like he can’t believe what he’s hearing.“But that doesn't change the fact that you lied to my face,” I continue. “I might think you're an arrogant asshole most of the time, but you've always been someone I trusted to be honest with me.”He actually flinches at my words.“I’m sor

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   272. We can't be together

    “We can’t be together,” I reply weakly, my body instinctively leaning into him, my head tilting slightly to give him easier access.“I shouldn’t have said what we had that night was a mistake,” he insists softly as he moves my ponytail over my shoulder.My breaths come out deep and uneven, every nerve in my body responding to him like I’ve completely lost control.‘Why can’t I leave?’ I ask myself desperately.“Aggy, turn around.”Julian’s words are simple, but they throw my entire mind into chaos.It would be one thing if he forced me against the wall or grabbed me without giving me a choice. But this? This is different.The choice is mine now. If I turn around, then it means I’m allowing this to happen.Biting down hard on my lip, I try to force myself to turn the door handle. Instead, my fingers twitch around it before my hand falls uselessly to my side in defeat.Slowly, I turn to face him.The moment my eyes meet his, my stomach tightens painfully.Lust burns openly in his gaze,

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   271. I want only you

    My jaw clenches instantly.I turn away and toss my napkin on the table.I have to get out of here.Even if it’s just for a few minutes.Placing my iPad carefully inside my tote bag, I take out my purse, slide my phone inside, keep my bag on the chair, and hurry away, making my way past his table while avoiding his eyes completely.I’ve just turned the corner and spotted the safety of the ladies’ room door when a strong hand wraps around my forearm.“Wait.”Just the sound of his voice sends a jolt through me.‘Okay, Aggy, you can do this. Just turn around and tell him to fuck off. He’s an asshole who does nothing but cheat on his very kind and pretty fiancée and has now shown up at one of your favorite restaurants with some random chick.’Straightening my shoulders, I turn to face him.Unfortunately, the man looks even better up close.I don’t think I’ve ever seen him looking anything other than perfectly groomed. But he obviously hasn’t shaved in a while, and instead of making him loo

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   270. Real Smooth

    Allister pushes me down with one powerful arm, his body shielding mine. “Bloom, stay down!”As he pushes me down, a bullet hits my window glass, grazing it and scaring the hell out of me.More bullets hit the window continuously until they create a spider web of cracks.I huddle in the footwell, trembling with fear, my wolf whimpering inside me.“We’re going to die,” I whisper, my voice barely audible over the noise.“Who are these people, Bloom?” Allister asks me.“I don’t knowwww,” I reply in a teary voice.“This is a setup from those who kidnapped you. Tell me who they are!” he roars.“No, it’s not them,” I insist.Goddess!Why do I believe that Philip and Cicero would never do this? Am I stupid for believing such?“Shit, I should have brought more protection,” Allister mutters, accelerating the engine as the car surges forward with desperate speed.He expertly maneuvers the car to avoid any more shots aimed at my window. I’m thrown about by his evasive maneuvers, causing me to hi

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   269. The Exchange 2

    The exchange happened successfully without issues, and immediately, I get to Allister, he hustles me into the car, gets in, and drives off as quickly as he can.We drive a long distance in silence. At some point, we pass through a fleet of cars loitering at the roadside.The cars quickly join us behind.“They are my men,” Allister explains when he notices my discomfort with the way I kept staring through the rearview mirror.The initial arrangement had been that the exchange would occur just a few meters away from the Silver Valley Pack border.But Cicero changed it at the last minute to another location.“Alli,” I call him, not liking the fact that he’s been too quiet and has only said a sentence to me since we met, “How are-”I’m unable to finish talking when Allister slams his foot on the car accelerator, pushing it so hard that we are almost flying through the road.I lurch forward, swallowing the rest of my words, and quickly fastened my seatbelt. His wolf is clearly irritable a

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   268. The Exchange

    I frown, “Yes?”“The Varkai wolves are growing stronger even in numbers,” Callahan White says carefully. “And they’re infiltrating Packs quietly. If this continues, they’ll eventually recruit Pack leaders, which might get to a point of revolt.”“I don’t know where you're getting your information, Callahan. But I've kept a close eye on Varkai wolves. The few that have tried infiltrating other Packs, including Silver Valley, I've made sure they don’t survive.”My words are obviously not enough for Callahan as he’s already shaking his head in disagreement.“These people are growing, Alpha, and their princes are the root,” he says. “They are also part of your biggest problem as the King.”“You want me to take a war to them? I won’t do that.” I insist, rage flashing through me instantly as I rise to my feet abruptly.“You think this is simple?!” I bark.The room trembles faintly beneath my Alpha aura. Sebastian lowers his head immediately.Sarah looks frightened, but Callahan remains still

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   74. Shocker

    I break into a run. My shoes slam against the pavement as I close the distance.The suited bastard is about to shut the door when I grab it and shove it open.“Move,” I growl at him, wincing at the sharp pain shooting through my body.The man turns to me, seemingly pissed. He steps forward like he’

    ~Jess~It’s been a very long and stressful day.After carrying out several surgeries at the hospital, I was so exhausted and was getting ready to head home when Allister’s call appeared on my phone screen.“Bloom,” he calls. “Had a great day?”“More like a stress day,” I groan. “I am so exhausted.

    ~Jess~ I sit across from Sarah at our small dining table, the food she prepared between us. Opening the large serving dish to scoop some for us, a rich aroma wafts out, making my mouth water instantly. “Wow, it smells amazing,” I say, inhaling deeply. “Olga, you really outdid yourself.” Inside t
