Damion's POV

You don't care about her! She is a traitor! Whatever she does is none of your business!

I had to keep reminding myself that this woman had no layer of importance in my life. She was nothing more than an object to be used by me.

Just like the other women in my life, she was nothing special. The others were just s*x toys meant to quench my list whenever I wanted to, she was just a figure to show to everyone as my Luna.

The only women that I showed compassion towards were my mother and sister. I could kill for them anyday, anytime. They easiest way to mess with me was to try any attempt at harm to those two.

Other than that, affection bore no residence in my personality. All I knew was duty to my pack and making sure everyone else feared me.

I drowned my glass of root beer. I had taken a break to rewind from everything. Seated across from me was my Beta; Logan McGill.

He was my best friend for as long as I knew how to walk. His father and mine were close so we basically grew up together.

He was the only other person that I could have a conversation with about what was going on in my personal life.

He was just as tall as me with dull brown eyes that only lit up when he was about to smile. He had a great build.

We were two contrasting personalities. While he was the social and jovial one who made everyone smile wherever he went, I was the reserved friend who would rather kill a thousand men that show emotion.

Emotions make you weak and vulnerable. Those were two traits that I didn't wish to possess.

“Maybe you should ease up on her a little.”

I sighed. “What are you going on about?”

“I mean, I get you're ruthless but the way you spoke with her in public was just heartbreaking. I'm not surprised that she wants to get as far away from you as possible.”

“Not you too taking her side. Have you forgotten that she is my property and that I can do with her however I please?”

He had witnessed the incident with Mia earlier and wouldn't stop talking about it ever since.

“That I do not disagree with. But why do you have a problem with her leaving if she is just a house object to you? It's not like she is of any use for you around the house.”

“Xander will do everything in his power to sleep with her. I can't have that.”

“Why? You don't seem to have a problem with sleeping with other Alpha's Luna.”

“Don't blame me for that. They are the ones who offer their bodies to me. I don't go about begging for s*x like Xander.”

“Maybe if you had treated her a little better she wouldn't have seen the need to see comfort in another man’s arms.”

“Save your preachings, Logan. I asked you what to do about this situation. I didn't call you here to try and convince me into caring about women.”

Logan sighed. I knew he would keep on pressing about the matter if I hadn't put a stop to it.

“There is nothing to do. Just let the woman do what she wants. But if you're jealous about seeing her with another man, then treat her well and she'll stay faithful to you.”

I rolled my eyes. What was wrong with everyone calling me jealous? I didn't love her. Why would I get jealous?

“You're not helping,” I scolded.

“You said it yourself. No woman is special. You can change her with a snap of your finger. If at any point, you get tired you'll change her anyway. Besides, you don't usually have a problem when the women you sleep with do the same with others.”

“I'm not changing her for another two years. We signed an agreement, remember?”

“She is just going to work. If you don't want Xander trying to seduce her, then confront him and warn him to stay away from her.” He took a sip of his root beer. “If you don't care, then just let her be and go on with your affairs.”

Now he was talking. That was something great to do. I would do just that. I was going to ignore her until after it was time to carry out the plan I had in mind for her and her father.

“That is what I will do.”

“All you have to be bothered about is if she is actually going to impact his company and make him grow more than you.”

No one can be greater than me. “There is no way she knows her way around fashion. Xander just wants her to himself. He knows there is no miracle that can pull his company back up.”

“If you say so.”

“I guess we'll just wait and see.”

Speaking of Mia, I hadn't seen her all day. I had sent a guard earlier to go and fetch her for me but he still hadn't returned.

“Where the hell is this guard?”

Logan shrugged. He looked up and something behind me caught his attention. His next words were a whisper. “Speak off the devil.”

“Do you have a death wish, guess?!” I yelled. “I sent you to grab me Mia. Why haven't you come back with her.’

“Sir I have searched everywhere for her but I couldn't find her. I had to go to the gate and ask if they had seen her. The last time they saw her, she was in a car, getting out of the pack.”

What? “Was she alone?”

“No. Alpha Xander was with her.”

I slammed my hand on the table. “And none of you assholes thought that didn't look right.”

“They tried to stop the car. But Luna Mia told them to stand down that she had permission from you to move about freely.”

“And none of you cared to reach out to me and confirm? How much more useless could you be?”

I was restless. I began pacing my room. “I have had enough of Xander. Logan, coordinate the troops we are going to take over his pack!”

“You know that is not reasonable, Damion. I'm sure there is a reason she went with him and he is going to drop her off when they are done.”

“Am I stuttering?! Do as I asked!”

“Calm down, Damion. She is going to show up. If she doesn't show up before evening, I'm sending a troop over to his pack.”

“Xander had captured my Luna. He's going to regret messing with me.”

    Lyra(Mia’s)POV The ride back was quiet. Veronica had contacted Alpha Damion and out of the “goodness of his heart” he had sent a car down our way.He was a quiet fellow and I wouldn't have it any other way.Just get me as far as possible from this place before I lose my cool.When you spend an entire week on the ground with lions, the greatest treasure you can hope for becomes a breath of fresh air.I'm not talking about the one oozing in from the car window.The gift is being able to breathe without fear that in that second, a killer was crawling up on you.I couldn't call it peace. The chaos was far from being killed.I was yet to get my payback.“Have you been able to get what I asked for?” I inquired from Veronica. She had the same dazed look from the minute she hopped into the car.I had to tap her thigh slightly to get back her attention.“I asked a question and you still haven't answered. What’s going on?”“Sorry. I zoned out. It’s just that I can't believe what happened in th

    Xander’s POV“Come back here!” Nyla yelled, but I ignored her, pulling the door open and walking outside.There she was, standing with Veronica, who grabbed the pieces of luggage.Was I going out there to plead with her to stay? Far from it! I had done that already, and it had ended with the door almost stealing my nose.A change of strategy was necessary.“You have no way to get home!” I announced from the porch. “I was the one who brought you here, and I am the only one who can take you back. Just come inside and we can talk this out.”“Stay away from her!” Veronica yelled. She turned to Mia. “Do you want me to take care of him?”She smiled for the first time in the last hour. Despite her clenched chin, it still managed to look less of a threat to her assistant.“Just go down the road and get the vehicle that was sent, and I'll be with you shortly.”Veronica looked between both of us before taking the bags further down the road. Her eyes didn't leave me for more than five seconds. J

  • Twin Hearts,Broken Bonds   CHAPTER 73

    Xander’s POVI would have preferred to take a leap into hell rather than stand in this room. It was better to have a thousand trombones yell in my ears than have to watch the four other individuals stare at each other with deafening unspoken words.There was no escape. Everyone had been touched, torched. Yes, the words burned, leaving scars with bruises of their own.For one thing, there was something more dangerous than the bubble of threats and truths that had just exploded in the air. It was the tension that came afterward.“Go ahead, call her bluff,” Nyla’s voice broke through the thick air. “Tell her that you are going to stand behind me and make sure that her lies don't see the light of day.”That would be a lot easier if I didn't know the truth. I had a huge part to play in it after all.“Are you out of your mind?” I whispered. “Does that woman look like someone who would be throwing around promises like that for fun? She is going to keep to her word,” I hissed. “I told you to

    Lyra(Mia’s) POV“Don't listen to them!” Xander pleaded. “The words you just heard here are just words of two angry adults.”I scoffed. “Don't patronize me, Xander. You should know better. I am not a fool that you should toss around anyhow you like.”“I would never…”“I heard her, Xander. The only reason you brought me here is to exploit my talents. As soon as you were done, you should have locked me out to the curb. You don't have to lie. The truth about who you truly are is in the open.”Xander hissed. The apologetic tone was out the window and the cold voice had returned. “I am not the one who should be getting the blame here. The person you should be mad at should be the woman who just tried to kill you.”All eyes turned to Mia.I scoffed before looking at her. “And you, did you really think it would be so easy to get rid of me? I knew something was wrong from the start.”“Why didn't it work?” she asked, looking baffled. \I planned everything perfectly. I even applied the poison, w

    Lyra(Mia’s)POVEven Veronica was worried when she saw me begin to cough.“What's going on?” she whispered as she leaned closer. “Didn't you switch the poison bottles?”I didn't tell her about this part. I wanted everyone to be taken by surprise.“What is going on? What have you done, Nyla?” Xander yelled out in frustration. “How dare you try to spoil our visitor's drink?!”“I just did what I felt is necessary to be done. Don't act so innocent. We have no more use for her. Someone had to do it!”She didn't even care to deny the allegations. I had thought that she would put up some kind of fight or at least try to keep up with the good girl act.“You shouldn't have done that. That woman had been nothing but helpful to us. Why would you want to kill her?” she asked, her voice trembling.I observed everyone's reaction.This was the only way I could find out who had changed after all of this time. But no one seemed unsettled by what was going on.All they did was keep on blaming her. The o

    Xander’s POV“I look at all the faces here and all I can see is joy. A few days ago, we had all lost hope but with the coming of our saviour here,” I paused to point to her, “we have been able to achieve the impossible that was needed to restore our name.”They all applauded her and she waved. I could tell that she was getting uncomfortable with the spotlight being on her, so I immediately drew back their attention.“She has been very helpful even when she shouldn't have. Don't worry, you all will have the time to glance at the dresses when the time comes.”They murmured, but I raised my glass and silence reigned. They raised their glasses as well.“Before we begin to dig into this dinner that has been prepared for her, I would love to raise a toast to our knight in shining armour. Cheers!”“Cheers!” they retorted in unison.“Thank you so much. You have a good heart,” my mother-in-law began. “I just wish I could have gotten you as a daughter. You are so special that I would treat you
