TESSA’S POV

I wasn’t in my room. That was the first thing I noticed when I woke up in the unfamiliar place.

This room alone was bigger than my entire apartment back in Old Holt. Every piece of furniture was done in white and royal blue. Where was I?

The last thing I remembered was falling unconscious after being drugged.

I threw off the sheets, letting out a breath of relief when I saw I still had my clothes on.

Footsteps echoed from the living room area, someone was coming.

“I had money on you waking up sooner. You really know how to ruin a bet,” Wraith said, walking into the room.

“You asked if I trusted you—and then you drugged me?”

“It was necessary.”

“Yeah, I got that the first time.”

“You’ll be safe here.”

“Where are we?”

“This is the Silver Pack. This section is my wing—you’ll be staying here.”

“Wait, you’re not planning to keep me locked up in this ‘pack’ forever, are you?”

“I thought you needed protection.”

“Yes, I do. But I have a job to get back to, and Bree—oh my God, Br

  • The Beta and The Lost Heiress   Chapter One Hundred and Fifty Three

    TESSA’S POVI didn’t know how much time had passed—hours? Maybe even a day?The only proof I had to tell the time gone by was my growling stomach.The metal door groaned, and a small compartment near the bottom opened. A tray of food was pushed inside before the panel slammed shut.Bree stood, fetched the tray from the door, and returned.My mouth watered from the aroma. There wasn’t much on the tray, just two plates of chicken soup and two plastic party-cups filled with water.“He never brings me food like this. It’s always bread and water—always.” Bree said. “I… don’t think we should eat this; it might be poisoned.”“I don’t think Falcone wants us dead just yet, Bree.” I reminded her, and her eyes flashed with fear. Of course she’d brushed off Falcone’s words earlier, but I knew she still thought about it.Bree was right to be cautious, the food might indeed be drugged, but staying hungry would likely give the same result. “We’ll need our strength if we are going to leave this plac

    JAKE’S POVI rarely left my wing. Most of my time was spent lost in thought; the rest was spent driving around the city in search of Angelina.Wraith had told me not to make a move, that he’d handle it, but what if something had happened?And then there was the thought I kept shoving aside—the possibility that she was already dead.I caught the faint sound of footsteps and turned to see Natasha standing by my door.“I knocked, but there was no response.” She explained, before walking in. A flicker of pity passed through her eyes. I wonder what exactly she saw—perhaps it was the lifeless man I imagined I looked like.“The soldiers reported an intruder; he’ll be crossing the pack boundaries shortly.We should go find out who this person is and what they want.”“You should go. I have some things to attend to.”“Like what? Taking another drive round the fucking city? We both know you wouldn’t find her in any of those houses.” “At least it’s better than sitting in here doing nothing!”“Yo

    WRAITH’S POVThe first thing I did was head straight to the address on the back of the picture. A café. The owner said some stranger had paid him a ridiculous amount to rent it for a few hours.The stranger claimed it was to impress a love interest, so he’d agreed.The café was a dead end, and so I’d returned back to the hotel to get the camera footage, and on my way out a staff member had approached me.She’d informed me of the conversation she’d had with Tessa right before she left. She’d said Tessa had looked so troubled she’d been prompted to ask, and was told she’d just received sad news—but that was all she could get out of her.Now I sat in my car, replaying the footage over and over again on my tab.I watched Tessa hurry to the private elevator, only to realize it needed a passkey. Frustrated, she’d returned to the suite, only to leave again—but this time she’d used the regular elevator, but other than that, there were no other clues to where she might be.In the footage, the

    WRAITH’S POVI pulled up in front of the barn. It was the perfect spot—secluded, surrounded by miles of open farmland. I stared at my phone, aching to hear Tessa’s voice. It took everything in me to resist calling her; I knew she’d be worried, but I couldn’t reach now, not until this was over. Stepping out of the car, I headed inside. Logan was already there, exactly as we’d planned.“Let’s get on with this.” He said, taking out the metal chains, which were designed to look like they were forged from silver.The plan was to give Falcone the impression that I was bound, powerless, and totally at his mercy.“Had he contacted you again?” I questioned.“No. He’s been pretty much silent since I gave him the address.”That didn’t sound right.“Why did you ask?” Logan questioned.“I don’t know. Something feels off.”I couldn’t tell what exactly it was, but I could feel it.Logan’s phone buzzed, and he pulled it out of his pocket; It was Falcone calling—speak of the devil. He picked up the

  • The Beta and The Lost Heiress   Chapter One Hundred and Forty Nine

    I awoke with a start.The first thing I noticed was that I was still in the same dress I had on earlier. The second was that my wrist and ankles had been chained. The third was the room I’d been placed in; from the musty and damp smell, I could tell this was an underground building—a lair of some kind.god, my head hurts. Every part of my body hurts.I still remembered the sting when the cloth was pressed to my nose—the sharp, burning smell that tore through my senses. I’d clawed and thrashed until the darkness took over and I lapsed into unconsciousness. He had lied; that wasn’t the “easy” option.“Tessa.” The voice called, and I whipped my head toward the sound so fast it sent a sharp pain through my neck. I recognized that voice.“Bree?” I called back, and then I spotted her, hidden in the shadows.The flickering bulb was the only source of light, and that was barely enough to illuminate the lair. The far corners remained covered in darkness.“Oh my god, Tessa.” And then she was r

    TESSA’S POVI picked up the landline and put a call through to the front desk.“Good day, Mrs. Wraith. This is Grace from the receptionist team; how may I help you?”“I discovered the elevator I came through needs a passcode. Do you happen to know it?”There was a short pause. “I’m sorry, ma’am. The private elevator is only used and controlled by The Boss, but you can make use of the regular elevator, if you don’t mind. It’s down the hallway on your left.”“Thank you very much.”“Same, enjoy your day!”With that, I disconnected the line.I followed the receptionist’s direction, and there was indeed an elevator there. I stepped in and selected the last floor. I ran a hand through my hair, trying to keep it from shaking.After receiving the mail, I threw on the first thing I saw — a cream-colored, knee-length gown, and tried using the elevator Wraith and I had come in through, only to find it needed a passcode.Perhaps that was part of the ‘security’ he’d mentioned.The elevator slid op
