Twice Fated Chapter 50: Veils of Betrayal and Redemption
The familiar scent of Rick enveloped me and assisted in soothing my pounding heart. I edged closer, speaking hardly above a whisper. "What are you doing here? Don't you have work to do?"His jaw clenched, eyes blazing with something fierce. "Nothing is more important than you," he answered sternly.But then his eyes flicked to Georgina, icy and unforgiving. "Last words? I can forward them with your corpse to your boyfriend."Georgina shook with uncontrollable fright, her face bloody and tear-streaked. Her lips parted, as if she wished to speak, but all that emerged were fragmented moans. Her pride was broken, and in its wake was raw, abject terror.Rick held up his hand, prepared to put an end to it, but I grabbed him. "Don't do it."His head snapped around to face me, eyes opened wide with shock. "Don't tell me you still pity this woman." His tone was full of skepticism, bordering on a growl."Of course not," I barked. "I just don't think she's worth getting your hands dirty. Let Cole hand

"You goddamn lying bitch," Cole snarled.Georgina's eyes widened in feigned outrage. "What's the matter with you? You're defending that woman?"The reporters spun their cameras toward Georgina and Cole.Cole's rage was explosive. He seized Georgina by the collar, pulling her up a few inches. "You shameless, lying whore! I should never have trusted you!"Georgina dug at his hands. "Lost your mind or something, Cole? It's me, your Luna!Newsmen! Cut that out, pay attention to her! "She jabbed her finger at me, but the cameras were stuck on the confrontation between her and Cole."You lied to me about being with a renegade!" Cole shouted, his red-rimmed eyes crazed. "David and the baby you're having, they're not mine! You lied, Georgina! Dirty liar!" Gasps echoed through the room. Investors, stockholders, and newsmen were stuck in place, their eyes wide with shock.Cole did not let up. "You foisted that scoundrel's child on me and told me it was mine!"Georgina struggled in his arms, her face pu

Bella's POVThe following day, I went to the site. Rick had already gone back to Riverbed Pack for pack tasks, leaving me in the care of Gamma Teddy. I strolled on the busy site, personnel rushing about, machinery roaring in the distance.Seeing Jestine by the makeshift office, I shouted out, "Hello, Jestine. Could I have the documents?"She smiled and handed me a fat folder. "Yes, Luna. Here you are."I took the folder and sat down in her office, thumbing through the pages. The plans were detailed, each step thought out carefully. I gazed up at her, impressed. "You did a great job, Jestine. Thank you for your efforts."Her face brightened up at the compliment. "Thank you, Luna."Then the investors came. I invited them in for a discussion on the interior design."The foundation of the sports complex will be done in three months, so we have to wrap up the interior design soon," I declared.Jestine handed over papers to the investors as I pointed out the proposals. We were far into the discuss
Twice Fated Chapter 47: Unspoken Bonds
Jestine's POV I was in a hurry. The office could not wait, and I must make the documents ready in the folder. I rushed out of the house, but the driver was nowhere to be seen. With no time to lose, I made a beeline for the gate, hoping that I would be able to catch a taxi.Fifteen torturous minutes went by before a shiny black vehicle came to a halt in front of me. The window slid down effortlessly, and Alpha Winkle, smiling warmly, greeted me from behind the wheel."Get in. I'll take you to the building site," he said, his brown eyes holding mine, coercively urging me not to say no.I lingered. Then I recalled the interior design presentation sitting on my desk. "Fine," I grumbled, getting into the passenger side.The ride seemed to take forever. Silence hung between us, heavy and tense, but somehow reassuring. For some reason, his presence made me feel. protected, as if nothing could go wrong as long as he was near.When we finally reached the building site, Alpha Winkle was already out
Twice Fated Chapter 46: North Moss Pack (Continuation)
Jestine's POV The office in the construction site hummed with the standard midday traffic. It was close to noon, and I had only just completed putting together the last of the reports and proposals for the investors. Tired but relieved, I collected my things, tucking the important documents into a folder before making myself ready to go home. Just as I was about to leave, I didn't see Freya walking towards me. And we collided. A blinding agony seared my flesh as the scalding hot coffee splashed me. I breathed in sharply, taking a step backward, my cry echoing through the room. But the agony was not the most terrible part - Freya's full cup of coffee had drenched across my desk, soaking the reports I had spent the previous three days preparing. My heart sank. The pages, carefully filled with vital data, were destroyed beyond repair. "Oh, ouch! Sorry, Jestine!" Freya's mouth opened wide, her lips spreading out into an over-the-top 'O' of surprise. But I wasn't deceived. The flash i
Twice Fated Chapter 45: North Moss Pack
Jestine's POVThe groundbreaking ceremony was over, and the crowd began to melt away. I saw my chance to escape, my footsteps walking me through the peaceful garden alongside the pack house. The moon shone brightly overhead, casting an argent glow over the well-manicured hedges and the stone fountain in the middle. My legs were sore from standing for so long, mirroring the numbing ache in my head. I let out a deep sigh and slumped onto the edge of the fountain, letting the night air wash over me.I thought about my interior design presentation, the one I was about to give tomorrow. I needed every detail to be flawless. Yet, as I attempted to concentrate, a change in the atmosphere made my breath catch.Footsteps.And footsteps were followed by a smell.Sandalwood and lemon - a deep, seductive scent that made me shiver. My wolf, Beauty, shifted within me, her response instantaneous."Mate," she whined, and her words were filled with yearning.My heart thudded. I raised my head, and my
