47. Her name is...

The street light turns green, but Allister doesn’t move the car right away.

“You don’t have to lean on me every time,” he says gently. “Just… don’t lock me out of your life.”

His thumb brushes over my knuckles, slowly.

“You have me. You’ve always had me.” He hums reassuringly.

His words are simple but filled with an intensity that makes my chest tighten. Yet I can't bring myself to respond.

Agnes’s earlier revelations about Rhea Luther have planted a seed of doubt I can’t ignore. Rhea probably

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   280. She left

    “Are you ready, Mr. Agary?” she asks casually upon setting eyes on me.“Yes,” I manage to let out.…After the meeting, I return to find Agnes on the phone, speaking almost inaudibly.“Yes, ma’am, I’ll have to let you go now. I have to get back to work, and I’ll give you feedback as soon as possible,” she says softly.After a brief pause, she chuckles lightly and doesn’t say anything else for a prolonged moment.Neither Mr. Myles, the general manager standing beside me, nor I dared to interrupt her.“Thank you so much, ma.” She giggles excitedly.My stomach tightens as I watch her face light up in a beautiful smile.When she turns around in her chair, her eyes widen at the sight of us standing right behind her, and she immediately begins gathering the paperwork on her desk.She glares at me before turning a softer glance toward Myles.“How did the meeting go, sir?” she asks him sweetly, as though I’m not in the room.I roll my eyes at her childish behavior.“Well, Miss Shema,” the man

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   278. Bearing it

    ~Jess~More than an hour has passed since I ended the call with Allister, and my tears haven’t stopped. I wonder how I had managed to produce so many tears, as if they were an endless, sorrowful river.I don’t believe Allister’s reason for breaking up with me. I’m almost like an Alpha’s daughter, and several Alphas will give anything to have me say yes to be their bride.Allister must be lying.But why?Is it because of the attack while we were coming back, or because I got kidnapped by the Varkai princes?Does he blame himself for all of that?If any of that was the problem, he should have spoken to me about it. We always talk about stuff and solve it together.Maybe it's none of that. He was serious. He would never hurt me jokingly. His words were incredibly hurtful, and neither my wolf nor I could control the tears.Goddess!I should have gone home with my family when they asked me to come with them and spend some days at Pasos with them, at least before thinking of resuming back

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   277. The Break up

    After breakfast, I hurry over to The Skull to kick my task into motion.But first, I need to find a way to tell Jess that we are over, and the Moon Goddess bear me witness, I’m unable to find the right words.There is no easy way to tell the woman of my dreams that I can't do life with her anymore.Not only will it hurt her, but it will hurt me, too.I hurry over to the wine cellar in my office, grab a bottle of wine, pull it open, and gulp half of its contents down.Leo eyes me from his position, standing right beside my office door, his eyes filled with concern.I’ve barely settled back down onto my seat when Angel walks into my office, his injured leg making his movements uneven and strained.Alarmed, I stand immediately.“Angel! What the hell are you doing walking around, straining your legs?”Angel bows and greets, “I needed to see you urgently, Alpha.”“You should be resting,” I tell him, more worried about the condition of his feet.“It’s important.”I move around the desk towa

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   276. I will not lose her

    I couldn’t sleep a wink all through the night.After dropping Jess off, Leo drove us back home. Since I wasn’t willing to spend the night alone at my private residence, I had him take us to the Packhouse.And once I retired to my room, I couldn’t sleep a wink.At some point, I thought of paying a visit to “The Skull” and spending the night there with my men.As early as five in the morning, I leave my room and head straight to my home office to find something to occupy my time and take my mind off the heavy task I need to carry out: breaking up with Jess.The attack on us yesterday is one I’m yet to find out where it came from, and it's all my fault, because none of our attackers survived.My men later went through the scene, and they found all of them dead. If I didn’t have Jess in the car with me, I would have devised better means to capture them.But I was more focused on ending their lives and keeping My Love safe.Maybe, just maybe, being away from her will finally help me focus

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   275. Last Night Together

    ~Allister~I leave Jess with Agnes and Ursula and step away to meet with the guys.At the sound of her laughter, I let out a sad smile because deep down, I already know this is the last night I will be with her like this.Tomorrow is going to be a bad day for me because tomorrow is the day I’ll let my baby go.“Well, look who finally shows up,” Victor whistles.Simon snorts into his drink. “Happy to see you, Alpha.”Julian, however, remains mute, but his gaze is on me as if he’s studying me.As I approach, they adjust their seating position, making space for me.Seated, Victor smiles, “Alpha Allister, why do you look like that?”I shake my head, “Like what?”“Like someone stole your most-prized possession or something.”“I look fine, Victor.”“Not to me,” he says. “You look sad.”Simon nods in agreement. “Actually… yeah. You do.”I scoff. “It's all in your head, Victor.”Victor points his drink at me. “You’re usually glowing around Jess. It can be annoying sometimes, but yeah, you glo

  • Rise Of The Hidden Heiress   274. Back

    “Simon, if I die decorating this place, tell everyone I died beautiful,” I announce as I stretch up on my toes, trying to pin the last silver ribbon to the wall without falling over.“You currently look like a stressed raccoon with glitter in her hair,” Simon replies lazily from a couch across the room.I throw a ribbon at him, and he catches it without even looking up from his phone.Annoying.Having him and the others in the room makes it easier not to feel awkward being in the same room with Julian.Julian is seated just beside Simon, and Victor is grabbing a tablecloth from the pile of stuff I put aside earlier.After our encounter at the restaurant earlier, I just had to prepare my mind for this evening since we all have to be here when Jess arrives with Alpha Allister.The room smells like fresh flowers, frosting, and candles. We’ve practically turned the small private lounge into a mini celebration den.Fairy lights hang around the walls, soft gold against deep cream curtains,

    ~Allister~After the surprise party I threw for Jess, my friends have been on my neck nonstop to understand exactly what's going on between Jess and me.So, when I finally took them up on a ‘boys night’ offer to a private polo club, I wasn’t surprised by the numerous questions that followed.Chess
