LOGINRaynaI couldn't even begin to explain the heartache within me the moment Sven's phone call made him pull away from me.We've been so occupied with work and almost dying that we barely had an alone time longer than 2 minutes.His eyes were glued to his phone and I was left feeling the chills his distance instantly brought.He let out a sigh and placed the phone back in his pocket before turning to me.“Tony wants a meeting tonight.”And he couldn't wait 10 minutes before sending a text?“What for?” I asked.“I don't know yet, but he said it's business. He asked that I pick a venue.”“You want me to come with?” I was really starting to enjoy the tag alongs.“Of course.” He took my hand and assisted me in coming down the counter.“Let's get ready then.”………The day passed faster than I expected and I had 20 minutes to get ready for the business meeting with Tony and definitely his sorry ass daughter. I took my towel off and put on my handless silver dress which stopped a little bit abo
SvenNever in my life had a woman caused goosebumps to form on my skin like Rayna did.I had seen brutal women, Madam Tanya was one of them. I had seen women who thrived ruthlessly in the Mafia world—but there was something about seeing a woman I've always visualized as fearful and incapable, handle a situation like the lady of the cartel.I couldn't get over seeing how Rayna handled the rookie captive. I never thought I would willingly stay quiet and allow a woman handle my duty like that—i was glad I did though.How could one person have two completely different sides?There was the one that always had my clothes on and had her head buried in a bowl of ice cream 70% of the time. Then there was the one from yesterday. Whenever she opened her mouth to address a situation, I was left staring like a child who just saw candy. She broke things down faster than I could. She could see into situations I only saw the surface off. While everyone was left brainstorming, she had already figured
RaynaI stared at the gun in my hand, my sense of reasoning flying back in my head.I felt goosebumps on my skin, but I tried my best not to show any emotion that would make me appear weak.I pulled the gun down, my eyes fixed on the screaming captive before me.His thigh was oozing out blood and no one moved an inch to help him.I tilted my head slightly, my emotions feeling mixed. A part of me began to regret what had just happened, a tiny part. But another part, a larger one, felt so good.I literally hit my aim without putting too much thought into it.“Would you be quiet?” I finally spoke and his gaze met mine. His screams turned into painful groans alongside his heavy breathing.I felt this satisfaction seeing that smug look wiped off his face. At the same time, I started feeling bad for him—I didn't want him bleeding to death.“Let's try talking again.” I took a step closer. “Who paid you to do this?”“I don't know, alright! I don't…I don't know.”“I'm running on very low patie
RaynaI hadn't seen Sven all day, but he texted unexpectedly, telling me to get dressed.I asked what the occasion was thirty minutes ago, but he still hadn't replied.Now, I was left guessing so I don't overdress or underdress. I stood quietly in our room, my gaze shifting from one outfit to the other as I tried to wait patiently for a reply.My phone suddenly beeped and I grabbed it immediately. His reply sent shivers up my spine.‘Wear anything but white.’I didn't need an informer to tell me where we were going or what was going to happen.“Maybe we're going somewhere messy?” I tried to convince myself, but I knew Sven too well.I put on a black and navy blue outfit before proceeding to put my hair in a pony tail.The door opened up not too long after and Sven walked in.He had a blank look on his face, not the usual warm kind I was used to, nor the cold one he had while working. His expression read nothing—no emotion whatsoever.“Is there a problem, Sven? Where are we going?” I n
Rayna“When I asked to be a part of your business, I already knew what you were into and knew the danger surrounding it. How am I supposed to be a part of it if I run at every sight of danger? The Arabs want you and we all know they won't go for you directly, they'd want your weakness. That bomb wouldn't have been placed in that car if I wasn't in it because they don't want you dead, they want you weak.”He remained quiet, his eyes lingering on me with surprise.“Can you try to understand and stop staring?” I said to Sven, who kept looking at me like something sensible couldn't come out of my mouth.“I'm waiting for you to continue.”I rolled my eyes and let out a sigh. “Everyone in here has two different pieces of information about me. Who's far off, as far as they know, I'm a complete werewolf and who's close with you knows about Dana. If the inside man is one of the Omegas, they didn't drug me because they wanted someone to at least be sensitive to the danger. Like I said, it was n
Sven“Has the new shipment been cleared from the dock?”“Yes, Alpha Sven, it has. What's left is to update the records and we'll put them in place for moving.”I nodded, leaning back on my office chair. “An Arab was caught around the basement's territory the last time I was there. Has the warehouse territory been clear?”“It has. We haven't noticed anything funny—at least not for now.”“I'll drop by when I can. You can get back to work.” With nothing left to say, I ended the call.I shut my eyes and placed both hands on my chair's arm rest. I've been trying my best for the past two days not to do anything stupid, and it was really eating me from the inside out.I hadn't done a thing to either Kazim or Arnaldo and I could really feel it stressing me out.Goddess, I had promised myself not to meet with them for now because forgetting a pull on their forehead would be the least of their fear. I was trying to think rationally, trying to be strategic because having an inside man only made
