Chapter 84

Lucien Thorne

~•~

“How well do you know Chloe? Where do you think she must’ve taken her to?” I asked Ivy as I started the car engine.

Ivy shrugged, wiping off her tears with the back of her hand. “I have no idea. We aren’t that close anymore.”

I looked at her closely, trying to study her face for any crack — I still couldn’t trust that she wasn’t part of it.

Everything was just so convenient.

But she seemed sincere.

My mind was conflicted.

“Are you sure?” I swallowed hard, hitting the accelerator. The car lurched forward, tires squealing against the road.

Ivy’s gaze shifted to me. “I swear, Lucien. I have no idea what Chloe would do.” She said, trying to convince me. Suddenly, she paused and stared at me for a long second. “Wait, are you insinuating that I know but I’m keeping it away from you?”

I didn’t say anything, I just kept on driving.

“Wow,” Ivy muttered with a disbelieving scoff, shaking her head. “After everything that has happened, you still don’t trust

  • The Wolf's Awakening   EPILOGUE

    EPILOUGEHalle Wilder ~•~“I’ve never been so happy in my entire life,” I muttered, biting my inner cheek to stop myself from smiling. Lucien smirked. “Are you sure?” I responded with a shrug. “I don’t know…but it’s so weird. Like how can my happiest day be the day you killed my father?” He chuckled. “I thought you disowned him a long time ago? You’re still referring to him as your father?” He asked, raising a skeptical brow at me. I scratched my face. “You know what I mean, Lucien. And yeah, I disowned him, but it’s still ironic how today is the happiest day of my life.” I replied, pushing his hair backwards. “The only person I have an ounce of sympathy for is Chloe.” Lucien sighed. “Chloe doesn’t deserve your sympathy. She was lucky I didn’t even aim the bullet at her head.” I let out a soft laugh. “I’m glad you didn’t. I still feel like my father manipulated her into doing all those things.” “Yeah, but it didn’t change the fact that she tortured you and also tried to kill y

    Chapter 109Lucien Thorne ~•~My heart was pounding in my chest as my men and I surrounded Wilder’s house. It was an entirely different house and I was able to get access to it through my inside man in their town. I still couldn’t believe that they burned down the other house just to make it look believable that he actually died in the fire.I wanted to kill Wilder — quickly and quietly. After waiting for what felt like an eternity, the gates finally opened. But just as his car drove outside, I blocked the way with my car. A few of the men also blocked the way. Luckily enough, he didn’t come out with a lot of security. I killed the engine immediately and made sure my gun was loaded. Then I stepped out of my car and went to his car. The windows were rolled down.He was shocked to see me. And he also looked terrified. “What are you doing, Lucien?” He asked, trying so hard to mask the fear in his voice. “What is the meaning of this?” I could tell that the driver and the other

    Chapter 108Halle Wilder ~•~When I confronted Lucien about it, a part of me hoped that he would say everything was a lie and Grimm was just bluffing. I just didn’t want it to be true. But my heart shattered when he admitted everything. It felt like the whole world was spinning. I had no idea where I wanted to go but I just wanted to leave his house. He was pleading but I couldn’t listen to him. I felt so hurt and betrayed. Ivy, who had been silent, finally came toward. “Halle, can I speak to you for a minute?” She asked, her voice barely audible. I wiped off the tears that had glistened on my eyes with the back of my hand. “What do you want to talk about? I’m not staying here.” I made it clear before going back to the room with her because Lucien had asked her to help him talk to me. “Just come here.” She took my arms. When we got into the room, she closed the door, folded her hands, and stared at me. “Girl, what are you doing?” She asked, her breathing shallow. My brows

    Chapter 107Lucien Thorne ~•~Just when I was halfway to the house, my phone started ringing continuously. I glanced at it and saw Halle’s name flashing across the screen. I didn’t answer the call because I was driving. Well, that was just a silly excuse. The truth was that I was scared to pick up the call. I had no idea what she wanted to say, but I had a feeling that it was about the spell. I mean, what if Grimm had already reached out to her or something?The phone rang continuously. My throat tightened and I felt bad for ignoring her. After driving for a few more minutes, I decided to call her back. I was already going to the house where I would meet her in person, so there was no point ignoring her. I dialed her number and the call immediately went to voicemail. My breath hitched. Why wasn’t the call going through? Different thoughts ran through my head. Did she actually call me because of another reason? Was she in danger and needed my help? I could only hope I hadn’t

    Chapter 106Halle Wilder ~•~When the call ended, Ivy tapped my shoulder. “Who was that on the phone? Why do you look so spooked? What did they say to you?” She asked, her voice thick with curiosity. I had no idea when tears started rolling down my cheeks. “Halle, why are you crying? Did something happen?” Her brows drew together as she leaned closer. I closed my eyes briefly, then I wiped off my tears with the back of my hand. There was no point in crying. At least, not yet. “It’s Lucien,” I muttered under my breath. “Lucien called you? What did he say?” I shook my head. “No, Lucien didn’t call me. Grimm called me.” I replied, breathing out heavily. “He told me that Lucien cast a spell on me just so I would believe that we are true mates.” Ivy didn’t respond immediately. She just stared at me in silence. I didn’t know how I felt about what Grimm told me. What was his motive? Why would he say something like that to me? I mean, I felt the connection…the bond with Lucien. Bu

    Chapter 105Halle Wilder ~•~Ivy was meant to come over to the house to spend some time with me. I needed company or I was going to lose my mind. Not just the company, I needed my best friend. My eyes had been constantly darting to the clock on the wall, I was literally counting the seconds to when she would arrive. She told me that she was already on her way and I was too impatient to wait. But after about twenty minutes, I heard a knock on the front door. I stood up immediately and answered the door before any worker in the house could even realize that someone was knocking. My lips curled into a small smile when I saw Ivy standing outside. “Hey,” I said, pulling her into a warm hug. “Why are you acting weird?” She murmured on my shoulder, a hint of curiosity in her voice. I broke the hug and my brows knitted into a frown. “How am I acting weird? I’m just happy to see you.” She raised a brow. “Mhmmmm, okay.” She said as she closed the door. “I’m happy to see you too.” Soon
