MasukStanding there, looking straight into his eyes, Cassie’s heart pounded in her chest. Her breath hitched in her throat, and her mouth was so dry, but she just couldn't look away, no matter how hard she tried. She wanted to look away, she really did. But something other than fear and nervousness was pulling her to him. It was a force that she could not explain. Yes, he was attractive, but it had to be more than that. It had to be. “What do you want, Cassandra. Is it power that you want? Is it fame? Is it someone to love? Tell me the desires of your heart,” He said to her, a smile taking over his lips. “I can make it all happen. I can.” He smirked, then he pulled away. “It is all within my grasp.” He walked over to his desk, and this time, instead of sitting in the chair that was behind it, he sat on the wooden surface. He folded his arms on his chest and then locked eyes with her. He knew that he could just threaten her and make her do his bidding, but he did not want to do that.He
Alpha Maddox was pacing the living room, still trying to call Cassie over and over, but just couldn’t get to her. It was like she had blocked him or something.As for the omega, she couldn’t even get her number to ring or say anything. This was stressing him because both of the girls had been gone for hours now. It was literally a few minutes past midnight.“Do you think they’re hurt?” He stopped pacing and locked eyes with his beta. Without waiting for an answer, he shot another question, “But what if both of them aren’t together and it’s just a coincidence that they’re gone at the same time?” He was a bit hopeful by this.The beta shook his head slowly. “Even the guards said that they left together. The maids are saying the same thing.” “F*ck,” He cursed under his breath before proceeding to try to call the blonde girl again. “We know how Cassie can get. And with this whole breakup thing, I’m scared that she might hurt Selena.”Leon was worried about this too, he knew how crazy the
Elijah seemed taken aback by the threat, but at the same time, he kind of understood her pain. Anyone would have said the same, even if it was him.So he wasn’t really offended. He didn’t feel threatened as well. If anything, he wanted to help her. But it was not that easy. “Selena, it’s not…it’s not that easy. I can’t just go and pull Lily out of the hospital. She’s too sick for that. It would do her more harm than good.”The omega sighed shakily. She then looked away, staring at the window for a few long seconds before looking back at him. “So we just leave her there to die? All alone?” Her voice broke and tears escaped her eyes.He felt so bad, he rushed over to her and wrapped his arms around her. “Just hear me out, okay?” He said softly to her. He was happy that she didn’t fight against his embrace. “We leave her there and I’m going to try my best to work on all the necessary paperwork to take you and your mom there. How does that sound?” She was straight up sobbing in his arms,
Back to Selena, she was still in the hospital room, her heart thumping in her chest. She knew that not agreeing to do what the doctor had suggested was going to get her or get Cassie in trouble. And she didn’t want any of that. Getting caught with wolfbane was a serious crime. It could even be punishable by being banished from the pack. Or a lifetime behind bars.And again, she didn’t want any of that.So she decided to do what the guy was asking her to do. All he wanted was some dirt on the alpha, right? She didn’t have to give him something that could ruin the guy’s life. She could just give him anything that might seem interesting enough.Sitting in the bed thinking about it all, she then found out what she was going to say. Just in time, he walked into the room, a look on his face that she couldn’t decipher.“We need to talk,” he said as he closed the distance between them, sitting on the bed right next to her.“I know,” she replied. “I have made a decision, I will do what you wa
Cassie was sitting in the passenger’s seat of the G-wagon, right next to the new hot guy she had just met. She was mesmerized by him.He was not only hot, but he was smart as well. His mannerisms were great and everything he did or say was just so attractive to her.“Malek,” she said his name. It felt good to roll it off her tongue, but for some reason, she felt like she had heard it before. She just couldn’t put her finger on where or when. “Yes, that’s my name.” He focused on the road, driving them further away from the hospital. “And yours is Cassandra, right?” The blonde girl was taken aback by this. “How—how do you know my name?” She asked, nervousness filling her. She glanced at the door and it was locked.The guy also started driving a bit faster now. He smirked when he felt her eyes on him. “Let’s just say that I have my ways.” He chuckled, keeping his eyes on the road. Cassie’s mind was racing, spinning and trying to calculate if she found a way to jump out of the moving c
It was dark, and it was cold. That was before Selena opened her eyes. When they were open, her vision started to clear up, her memory a bit fuzzy.It was no longer dark, but it was still cold. She looked around and soon found out that she was in a hospital room. Then her eyes fell on someone who was also in the room with her. She had thought she was alone.It was Elijah. “Look who’s awake,” he said, chuckling to himself. Her eyes fell on his bandaged hand and she looked back to his eyes. “Where am I? What happened?” Her memory was still here and there, nothing really solid. He walked over to her bed, a soft smile on his face. “You’re in the hospital, Selena. You were brought here by someone a few hours ago and you just underwent surgery.”“Surgery? What…?” Then it all started to come back to her. She started to remember everything. From the argument she had with the alpha to the blonde girl pretending to help her. “Cassie…” She said in a low tone while trying to sit up. When she w
