Chapter 101

ZAREKRamirez's eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched as he spoke, “Then what do we do? We can't just give up now.”I sighed, rubbing my temples. “Think about it, Ramirez. Nikolas has already outsmarted us once. He's not going to make it easy for us to get to the Crystal Moon now. And even if we manage to get to the Crystal Moon's truck, we'll be walking into a trap,” I told them.Bruce spoke up, his voice calm and rational. “Zarek's right, Ramirez. We need to come up with a new plan. We don't even know the whereabouts of the supposed right truck.”Lizzy nodded in agreement. “Also, we aren't sure if the Crystal Moon was even taken to the supposed truck. Possibly, it's still in the pack, or somewhere distant.”I paused, my mind racing. We needed to get out of there, and fast. Nikolas had the upper hand, and we couldn't let him have that powerful fragment to himself.I thought back to our previous encounters, trying to recall any details that could help us now. And then, it hit me - Nikolas's

Chapter 102

TANIAI turned around and Nikolas walked out of the bathroom in haste. He had a frown on his face as he looked down at my hands. I moved away to avoid him seeing the document. But, Nikolas hastily approached the bed and pushed the pillow aside, revealing the document I hid.I wanted to speak, but I hesitated as he took the document and returned to the bathroom. I heard the soft roar of the toilet flushing, followed by an unsettling gurgle like something was being sucked down the drain. He had clearly disposed of the document, and I realized I couldn't find answers in them. The sound of the shower drummed on like a steady rhythm, giving me an idea of what I needed to do. I don't need the documents to get answers when Nikolas can spill out the truth himself.Just in time, I heard a knock on the door, an alert that Nikolas's food had arrived. The food was his dinner. He was a picky eater and had skipped eating at the Gala. I had anticipated this. Thankfully, Mum had tucked a powdere

Chapter 103

TANIAMum had been sick, and I had no money for her treatment. So, I did it. I worked at the brothel and flirted with wealthy men.If not for that decision, Mum wouldn't be alive today. She wouldn't have met Alpha Darwin, let alone married him, and Nikolas would never have crossed paths with me. I would have been just another poor, homeless woman, unable to afford her mother's treatment, forced to watch her wither away.As I stood before Nikolas, my anger and hurt boiled over. “But you... You cheated and messed with other she-wolves even when I had loved you and respected our mate bond,” I spat through gritted teeth. “I regret being with you.”Meanwhile, Nikolas moved away as he staggered towards the bed as if my words meant nothing. He was not even in his right senses.I sniffled as a thought enveloped my mind.“You said the truth because you are not in your right senses and I am relieved... I am relieved to know about everything you explained and I'm more than excited that the docum

Chapter 104

TANIAPulled away from danger, I looked up to see who had saved me and found myself gazing into Zarek's eyes, his arms wrapped tightly around me.His dark brown hair was packed to the back, and he looked handsome as always. He stared down at me with those rich brown eyes that seemed to ignite whatever feelings I had for him.“Are you alright?” Zarek asked, his voice low and soothing as it jolted me out of my thoughts. My heart was still racing from the close call, and my legs felt like jelly. I nodded, still trying to process what had just happened. “Y-yes,” I stuttered, my voice barely audible.Zarek's gaze held mine for a moment longer as if ensuring I was indeed okay. Then, he slowly loosened his grip around me, his arms sliding away from my body. I felt a sudden chill without his warmth, but I didn't dare move closer.Anxiety gripping me, I glanced back at the car that had almost hit me. It had zoomed off into the distance, leaving behind a trail of screeching tyres. I realized,

Chapter 105

ZAREKThen, Tania looked up at me as she spoke, “I won't deny it. I was hurt and angry, and I just wanted to forget about Nikolas, even if it was just for a moment... I know it was wrong to lie to you, and I'm truly sorry for my actions.”Her pout was still adorable, but now it was laced with a hint of vulnerability.“I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me,” she said softly.Her adorable pout tugged at my heartstrings, and I felt my resistance crumbling. I had never seen her in such a state and I knew in that moment that I had to let go of my hurt and forgive her.I shoved my hands into my pockets, “You're really sorry, aren't you?” I asked, my voice a little gentler.A smile crept up Tania's face and her lips curled up in a gentle arc. “Yes, Zarek. I'm really, really sorry.” Her voice was like honey, and sweet.I raised an eyebrow, my scepticism melting away like ice in the sun. “Really, really sorry?” I teased, my tone lightening.She nodded, her eyes shining. “Really, r

Chapter 106

ZAREKTania's eyes widened in surprise, “Sugar daddy?” she repeated, a giggle escaping her lips. “I wasn't expecting you to say that!” She playfully rolled her eyes, a smile still on her face.I grinned, enjoying the lighthearted moment. “Well, I guess that's one way to put it.”Suddenly, she stopped walking and tucked her hands in her pockets. “You know, Zarek, you're not like most guys I've met,” She said as she turned to me.“Oh? How's that?” I asked, intrigued.Tania shrugged. “You're...different. You are funny, nice, and caring. I guess that's why Bruce, Ramirez and Lizzy worked with you.”With a low tone, she added, “And that's definitely why those ladies were swooning over you in the bar.”I almost chuckled, until I heard her say.“Unlike other men who would take on illegal jobs just to make money, you remained honest and worked hard as a bartender, and you're doing well,” Tania said, her voice filled with admiration.If only she knew what I did in the past, she wouldn't be ad

Chapter 107

ZAREKThe man looked familiar, his chiselled features etched in my memory. Once I noticed the scar on his left eye, I realized who he was. Then, I knew I was in deep trouble.Tania turned to look at him, her eyes narrowing slightly as she sensed my tension.Before she could glance at him, I quickly squeezed her hand, guiding her attention back to me. She isn't safe here, not even with me by her side. If things escalated, she could get caught in the crossfire, and I couldn't bear the thought of her getting hurt. I knew I had to get her out of here, away from this dangerous man. It was the only way to ensure her safety.“It's getting late. You should leave,” I said softly, urging her to leave.My tone was firm, but my eyes darted nervously towards the man.Tania's eyes lingered on mine. She hesitated for a moment, then asked, “Why? We were just discussing.”Her tone hinted at a growing unease, but I hoped she wouldn't probe further.I wanted to speak, but she hastily turned back and

Chapter 108

ZAREKI gulped, feeling a twinge of temptation. It was a lot of money. If I had it with me, I would spend it wisely, but I could not betray my boss and team.So, I asked the leader a question, my voice firm. “Aren't you aware that I work for someone else?” The leader shrugged his shoulders, seemingly untroubled by my statement. “I am aware, and Alpha Barral is. But it doesn't matter. Your boss wouldn't even pay you as much as we are willing to offer.” His voice was laced with a hint of disdain implying my boss was beneath him.I glared at him, my eyes flashing with anger. “I won't accept this offer.” “We can add more money if that's not enough,” he offered, but I was already turning to leave.“Your money means nothing to me. I won't be bought,” I said, my hand on the door handle.“And if you'll excuse me, I have important things to attend to.” With that, I walked out. But my exit was swiftly blocked by one of his men, stepping forward with a calculated move. I huffed, “Really? Yo

Chapter 109

ZAREKTania breathed a sigh of relief and headed to her room, oblivious to my presence. Perhaps it was because I stood in a corner, blending into the shadows as I watched her retreating figure.I left the hotel and headed to my apartment to rest. It was a large apartment, one I bought while I was rich. Thank Goddess, I bought it before that Amelia's incident.I reached the apartment. When I tried to input my password, the door opened, revealing Ramirez's face.He reached for my hand, but I retracted, knowing too well that he would grab the expensive burger I bought.“How did you get here?” I asked. I didn't tell anyone about this apartment, and even if I did, I wouldn't reveal my password to him.“I broke in,” Ramirez replied, causing my jaw to drop. We break into pack houses, and warehouses, but not into our apartments.“What?!”“Why should we rent a place for our hideout when we can use your apartment?” Ramirez uttered. “You didn't even request for my permission.”“Why should I?”

Chapter 110

ZAREKBruce and Ramirez looked like they'd been punched in the gut, their faces pale and disappointed. I knew my announcement was a bombshell, but I had to be honest.Bruce shook his head, his voice laced with disappointment. “Zarek, we thought you were one of us. A team player. Not someone who'd just get up and leave.”Ramirez chimed in, his tone bitter. “Yeah, you're just gonna walk away from everything we've been through together? That's not how it works, Zarek.”Lizzy's expression remained neutral, but her eyes bore into mine. “If that's the decision you've made, then we are fine with it.”“What?” Bruce and Ramirez chorused in unison.Lizzy replied bluntly, “If anyone is also willing to leave the team, you can. No one was forced to join in the first place anyway.”I took a deep breath, meeting their gazes. “Thank you, and I promise to see this mission through, no matter what.”Lizzy nodded, her expression serious as she grabbed the laptop from Ramirez.“Speaking about this mission
