~Jess~

Allister’s Grandmother left the party upset, and his step-sister, Rhea, followed suit.

Grandma Regi knows so well, way before I left Silver Valley, because Allister and I used to spend a large chunk of our childhood together.

So, her behavior towards me threw me off balance. I’d been hoping that Rhea would be the only person I had to work hard to convince that Allister and I love each other.

But it seems Grandma Regi is at the top of the list.

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   234. The Hearst family in danger

    “Hey,” Tommy says, stepping forward with forced cheerfulness. “I have something that might cheer you up.” He pulls out his phone and taps the screen a few times before holding it where I can see. “Remember this? From your vacation with Jess years ago?”The video starts playing, and my heart clenches painfully in my chest. There she is, my Jess, her eyes bright with happiness, her smile radiant as she looks directly at the camera, at me.“Could you try making the video from this angle, please?” Jess pleads with Tommy.There's a shuffling and shaking of the camera before it becomes steady again.“I’m making this video for the love of my life, Dominic Hearst.” She says and blushes. “Hey, Baby, thank you for such a beautiful vacation. My wolf and I are really happy, and we appreciate you,” her voice, so full of love and joy, comes through the speaker.I've never seen this video. So, it both surprises and makes me happy.Tears fill my eyes, blurring the image as the video comes to an end.

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   233. Jessica White!

    The actual meaning of her words hit me. Dominic had tried to kill himself? My wolf stirs uneasily within me, touched by Helena Hearst's words.But a little reminder of how the woman and her son humiliated us back at Westwood is all it takes to strengthen our resolve. “Mrs. Hearst,” I call in a firm voice, “I’m sorry about your son, but his actions are not my responsibility.”“Please,” she begs. “Just come see him. One visit. That’s all I ask. I swear on my life that no creature in this world would find out that you visited.”But I shake my head, my eyes hardening with resolve. “No. Dominic made his choices. And so did I. I’ve moved on, Mrs. Hearst. Tell him to do the same.”“You emotionless, wicked, and heartless-”I hang up before she can finish, my hand trembling slightly as I drop the phone back on my desk. Holding the edges of my desk a little too tightly, I take several deep breaths to steady myself.Dominic attempted suicide because of me. The thought keeps repeating in my mi

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   232. Helena Hearst

    ~Jess~With Philip out on a 5-day medical seminar, a chunk of his responsibilities was shifted to me.So, work has really been more stressful than usual.A knock comes at my door, and it gets pushed in almost immediately.It's Sebastian, my cousin. “Look at my pretty Jessy,” he coos as he crosses the short distance between my door and desk.“Sebastian,” I call, a big smile on my face when I spot the takeaway food pack in one of his hands.“Tell me you got that for me,” I ask him, my mouth already watering.There's been tons of work to finish up since today that I've been unable to take even a short lunch break.“Lucky you that I’m being quite thoughtful today,” he smiles and drops the food on the table for me. “All yours, Couz.”“I promise you, Seb, you're the best cousin in the entire world.”Sebastian laughs and dips his ass into an empty seat.“What's that?” I ask, pointing to the black work bag in his other hand.“Oh, Charity stuff and all,” he replies, unzipping the bag and pulli

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   231. I wish they could just let me die

    ~Dominic~Except for the steady beeping of monitors and the occasional footsteps passing in the hallway outside, the hospital room I’m in remains quiet.Once news traveled to my family about my admission to the hospital, thanks to Tommy, who can't keep his mouth shut, my family arranged for me to be transferred to a private health facility at Westwood.It's been two days since I was moved here, and I'm yet to get as much as a call from Jess, even after instructing Tommy to text her my current address and let her know that I'm no longer at Silver Valley, and if she decides to visit me at Westwood, no one would know.I stare at the ceiling, counting the lines for what must have been the hundredth time today. The door opens, and my heart leaps with hope before immediately crashing back down when I see it is just one of the family heads of the pack coming to check on me.“Alpha Dominic,” he calls respectfully with a bow, and places a fruit basket on the side table. “The pack sends their

    ~Julian~“So, I will drop you off at home?” I ask Tania as we drive out of Caesar.“Why don’t we go somewhere and celebrate? I mean, we did so great today. Alpha Maclewin was impressed,” Tania suggests.“T, I’m really not in the mood for celebrations.”“Why not?”“I need to rest my head for a while.”“Let’s go to your house then. I could whip up a nice meal for us.”“I have a housekeeper and several other domestic staff, Tania. I don’t need you doing shit for me.”Her face falls, and I curse myself internally for the way the words came out. “Shit, I didn’t… I didn’t mean the words to come out the way they did. I-”“It’s fine,” she cuts me off. If you don’t want me cooking for you, we could just have a conversation. I believe we need to talk about a lot of stuff anyway.”My grip tightens on the steering wheel. “Yes, we do.”After a long moment of silence, I ask her the one question that has been on my mind since we left Caeser.“How come you know Miss Shema on a personal level?”She sh

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   229. Caesar meets Smith and Agary

    I flash a sweet smile of recognition when Julian Agary walks into my office, followed by a familiar-looking lady.It takes just a few seconds for me to recognize her as the lady from yesterday at The Vespa.Welcoming them and directing them to the empty seats opposite mine, Agary junior and I exchange handshakes.He’s about to introduce the lady when she cuts him off and introduces herself as his spouseWell…“Welcome to Caesar, Mrs. Agary,” I shake her offered hand.“Oh no, we aren’t married yet, Alpha. It’s still Tania Beecroft for now,” she smiles. “And it’s so nice to meet you again,” she adds politely.Julian Agary turns to her in silent question.“I ran into the Alpha yesterday at an eatery,” she offers a hushed explanation.“It’s nice meeting you again, Miss Beecroft. And if I must say, both of you look so good together. I’m glad you’re headed in the right direction, Mr. Agary.”“Yeah,” he replies dryly.I lean back in my chair and study him calmly. He senses it immediately, as

    My eyelids feel like they’re stitched shut, and my body feels so heavy that I’m unable to move it when I try to. The scent of an unfamiliar cologne wafts through my nose. A stranger’s oozing breath ghosts over my cheek, and panic instantly sets in as I immediately force my eyes open. A man I’ve n
