Violet followed Jack through the hallways, turning here and there, until they reached his office.It was a very large and well organized room, which impressed Violet. He seemed to be a very responsible man and a neat Alpha.As she passed the door, she heard a click that she knew it came from the key.He had locked them up.She looked back surprised, since she didn't imagine such measure was necessary. He said no one was going to disturb them."Don't worry, I'm not gonna do anything to you." he said stopping in front of her. "As much as I wanted to." Jack continued to walk again, leaving Violet a bit disconcerted."But I need to make sure you won't do anything stupid, like trying to run away again. We need to get to an agreement, remember? So forgive me for not trusting you. I'm sure you know the feeling." he said stopping behind a chair, and only then Violet realized that there was a whole feast prepared for them.He did all that for her?There were all types of food on the table and
Violet went back to her room escorted by Jack. She didn't say another word after he advised her to think about what she wanted.Her head was hurting again from thinking too much.What would her life turn out to be now? She didn't have much faith that Arden would be successful in rescuing her. But until that happened, she couldn't go on with her mission. Even if she was able to kill Jack, she was trapped inside the mansion, with all eyes upon her.She would never escape. So they would be both dead in the end.Now she was starting to think about Arden's plans. She didn't give much thought about his motives when he summoned her to do it.She just knew that Jack wasn't a good man, but why kill him? What exactly did he do against Arden that made the man want to kill him?Maybe staying inside the mansion, living with the Rebels, would give Violet a better perspective about their ways of living.Maybe she could be able to understand why Arden wanted to eliminate Jack.And she would have mo
Morgana led Violet to a very large room with twelve chairs placed as a circle.The seats were already filled with people and Violet felt very intimidated. At one of the chairs was Jack, looking at her with enigmatic eyes. Violet felt a cold in her spine.Morgana took the only empty seat and left Violet alone in the middle of the circle, like a criminal being judged. Which she was.Jack got up on his feet and started talking. "We all know why we are gathered here, so I'll skip the introductions. This woman was caught with a dagger from the Diamond Pack on her and everything indicates that she came here to kill me." That made sense to Violet now. So he discovered that she was from the Diamond Pack because of her dagger. She knew the object was in his possession, but how could he tell that it was from the Diamond Pack? What gave it away? But she didn't have much time to think about that because her future was being decided in front of her eyes. She had to pay attention to every single
Jack walked to where Violet was and stopped in front of her."Well, I guess everything went on smoothly. You're safe for now.""Am I?" Violet said sarcastically. "I don't see how I can be safe working for people that hate me."Jack raised his brows at her."You're gonna work for me, and I don't remember saying that I hated you." he said."You know what I mean…" Violet continued. "But since that's my only option now, I think I should thank you for saving my life." "That's more like it." Jack concluded with a satisfying smile. "So, like I said, you're going to work for me now. Be my personal assistant, if we can call it that.""And what exactly do you want me to do as your personal assistant, Mr. Morde?" Violet rolled her eyes, something that Jack ignored."You'll just do some errands for me, bring me food when I'm too busy, accompany me in meetings, that type of stuff." he explained. "Meetings? What type of meetings?" Violet asked curious."The type we have on packs. Have you never be
Violet stayed inside Jack's office for the whole morning. It turned out that the meeting wasn't very important. He just talked with a few members from the pack about some harvest that went wrong and they lost a lot of food.It impressed Violet how Jack was good with his words and was able to comfort the members from his pack.He was actually a very nice leader.Violet couldn't take her eyes off him for the whole meeting, trying to pretend she wasn't interested at all every time their glances crossed.When she was going to the kitchen to return the tray of his lunch, Violet bumped into someone on the hallway, dropping all the silverware and making a huge mess."I'm so sorry!" Violet kept repeating as she squatted down to catch everything and clean the carpet. "I didn't see you coming, it was my fault.""I should know something like that would happen because of someone like you." the person's voice came from above Violet's head, as she was still on the floor cleaning up everything.That
Her heart started to beat fast again, making Violet want to throw up. She wasn't ready to face him yet.Hearing him say horrible things to her face wasn't something she was prepared for.She would rather he just killed her instead.Violet opened the door with her trembling hands, and Jack stormed inside.After closing it, she turned to face him, but couldn't look up. She couldn't stare into his eyes."I don't even know where to begin." his voice sounded angry, but at the same time sad. Violet couldn't figure out why.Maybe he was upset that she hurt someone he cared about.Didn't that Kate said something about him being hers?That was also part of the reason why Violet wanted to punch her so badly."Violet, look at me!" he yelled, scaring Violet.She raised her head, preparing herself for the way he was going to look at her. She couldn't stand those beautiful eyes staring at her with contempt.But that didn't happen. He was looking at her like he was in pain. Violet almost frowned."Wh
Violet woke up on the next day feeling really weird.She had a lot of nightmares about her dying, and also a few dreams with Jack. Those wore even worst than the nightmares.The conversation they had on the previous night felt very genuine and sincere to Violet.She kind of felt a little more relieved after she explained some things to him.She didn't know how things would turn out to be from that moment on, but the fact that he seemed to believe her was more than enough.But it was getting very hard to resist him. Violet was having dirty dreams every night with him, and even during the day.Jack caught her daydreaming twice during the first hours of the day, and Violet was very thankful that he couldn't read her mind. She was really embarrassed for thinking those things.A few people from the Rebels started to look differently at her after Kate's attack. Apparently the fight had gotten to their ears. But it wasn't as bad as she expected it to be.From what Lucinda told when she brough
Jack had a very stressful day after Kate's attack. A council's meeting was summoned because a lot of people from the pack wanted to know what type of punishment Violet would have to face.Although some people didn't really care about it - in fact they seemed to even like what the girl had been through - as the Alpha, Jack couldn't make a blind eye to that.He also asked the doctor from the pack to be present at the meeting so he could explain with technical information why Violet lost control if she was on drugs.The doctor's explanation was very convincing and the members of the council seemed to be more relaxed after they said that the dosage was going to be boosted.Jack also made clear that, since Violet wasn't at the meeting this time, he was trying to bring her to their side for good. He didn't tell them exactly how he meant to do it, but he asked for their trust once more.Somehow he knew that he made Violet consider a lot of things with his words.When she told him that she al
