As soon as Blake took Leah away, I became worried and started to panic. I pleaded with Derick to come with me to save Leah, but he remained adamant, insisting that it could be a trap set by Blake. His mistrust towards Blake had grown over time, and he believed that Blake would do anything to lure us over to his place.While we were still arguing, Derick's phone rang. It was an emergency call from his office, and he had to leave immediately. He told me to stay put and not to leave the mansion. Reluctantly, I agreed, but my mind was preoccupied with thoughts of Leah's safety.She might have betrayed me before, but I need to save her from Blake and won't think about what her mother Amanda did.As soon as Derick left, I couldn't stay still. I had to go and find Leah. I left the mansion and headed to the woods to search for her. I could feel my heart pounding with anxiety as I tried to follow Blake's trail. Just as I was about to give up hope, I heard a rustling in the bushes nearby. I ca

~Sophia Pov~After we arrived at Derick's mansion in the city, Derick and I with Anita, one of Derick's followers, whom Derick trust. We dressed up and went to the company. Everyone was looking at us as we walked in the midst of the company. Finally, we arrived at the board meeting where the other board members were waiting for us. Derick sat at the head of the table like the boss he is, and the meeting commenced.Each of the board members began to stand up and give their own opinions concerning the financial issues of the company. Mr. Sylvester stood up and advised Derick that they should sell out some shares of the company. With the money, they could finance the company's issues. Derick looked at me and asked if I had any objections. I shook my head and told him it was a good idea, especially since it would attract more investors. Derick nodded in agreement and the meeting continued.Derick then turned to the board members and said, "We will sell out 40% of our shares." The room wen

The next day, we arrived at the company with the rest of the board members to finalize the sale of the 40% share of Mondragon's company to Mr Isaac. However, the time that was given to him had already passed, and he still had not shown up. Everyone was confused and unsure of what to do next.Mr Sylvester kept defending Mr Isaac, saying that he was a reputable businessman and that we should wait for him. I asked Mr Sylvester how he knew this, and he said that someone who wanted to buy such a large stake in a company must be serious.Just as we were all about to give up hope, a man walked into the board meeting. He introduced himself as Isaac and apologized for being late. He signed the necessary documents, and the sale of the 40% share was completed.As we were leaving the board room, we saw Blake and Mia walking into the company. Blake was wearing a black blazer suit, while Mia was wearing a stunning black gown. Derick and I were surprised to see them, and I immediately became suspici

He ran a hand through his disheveled hair, trying to regain his composure.As the tension in the room slowly dissipated, the workers cautiously approached us. They had witnessed the intense fight between Derick and Blake, unsure of what it meant for the future of the company. I could see the worry and uncertainty etched on their faces.Addressing them, I spoke with a calm tone, "Everyone, please gather around. We need to talk."Reluctantly, they formed a small circle around us, their eyes shifting between Derick and me. I took a deep breath, searching for the right words to restore their faith and reassure them that we would find a way forward."I know this situation is difficult and unsettling," I began, my voice carrying through the room. "But we can't let this chaos tear us apart. We need to stick together as a team and find a solution that benefits us all."Some of the workers nodded in agreement, while others remained skeptical. They had seen the power shift within the company, a

~Blake Pov~I and Mia were inside my mansion, enjoying a rare moment of respite from the chaos that had consumed our lives. The flickering candlelight cast a warm glow, creating an atmosphere of tranquility.Suddenly, the serene ambiance shattered as the grand entrance swung open, revealing the figures of Miranda and Theresa. My brows furrowed in confusion and frustration. "What is the meaning of this, Miranda? You have no right to barge into my mansion uninvited."Before Miranda could respond, a peculiar scent wafted through the air—a scent that did not belong to any familiar werewolf pack. Mia's eyes widened with concern, and she glanced at me, silently asking if I could sense it too. I nodded grimly.Instinctively, I shed my suit, my body tensing in preparation for a fight. The air crackled with tension as the unfamiliar scent grew stronger, filling the room with an ominous presence.Suddenly, a group of rogues crashed through the windows, their snarls echoing through the room.
