Alpha George’s POV I was fucking done with her, I couldn’t stand the sight of her clothes in my closet anymore. The ones she wore when she kissed me goodbye when she said she loved me, and when she lied to me, I grabbed them all and threw them into the luggage that Jack was holding for me. He knew what I was going through. He didn’t say anything, he just helped me get rid of her stuff. I moved to the nightstand and saw her perfume, the one that used to drive me crazy. I picked it up and sprayed it on myself, hoping to feel something. But all I felt was anger and disgust. I tossed it into the luggage and swept the rest of her things with my arm. Her makeup, her jewelry, and her hairbrush All the things that reminded me of her. Jack zipped up the luggage and was about to take it out when we heard the door slam. We turned around and saw her standing there, looking shocked and confused. She had a guilty look on her face, the one she always had when she knew something was wrong. “Alici

Nora's POVHe leaned in and wrinkled his brow. “I like the sound of that,” he said with a smile. I rolled my eyes at him. “This isn’t the time to flirt, we leave tonight,” I said, poking him in the chest. He grabbed my finger from his chest and kissed it softly with his plump lips. “Anything for you, baby," he whispered in a seductive voice and winked at me. I felt a thousand butterflies in my stomach, and a tingling sensation ran through my finger. I pulled my hand out of his grip and picked up his coffee from the desk, handing it to him. “Take, leave, we are going to talk about this later, okay?” I asked, looking into his eyes. He collected the coffee from me. He turned and walked out of the office without looking back. I knew he was still trying to be patient with me, but I had no idea if I wanted to be in a relationship right now, not with all this shit happening. I was about to scatter the pictures when my phone rang. The loud ringing broke the silence. I picked it up without

Nora’s POV I zipped up my leather pants and pulled on my long-sleeve black shirt. I checked myself in the mirror and adjusted my black face mask. I looked like a ninja, but I didn’t care. I was going to catch the claw killer, and that was all that mattered. “Mom, are you going on a date?” Asher asked, walking into my room. He looked adorable in his SpongeBob pyjamas, and his grey eyes were glowing in my dimly lit room. I smiled and squatted at his level. “No, sweetie, I’m not going on a date. I’m just going out with Zane, that’s all.” “You know, if you make him your boyfriend, Matt and I won’t have a problem with that, right?” he persisted. “Uh, I know, but he is just a friend, and you don’t have to know everything. Now, go to bed, okay? It’s past your bedtime.” “Alright, mom. Have fun with him, and do not forget to come back early.” Asher hugged me and ran back to his room. I let out a sigh and grabbed my purse from the nightstand. I headed for the main door and was abou

Nora’s POV We sneaked into the park, avoiding the security cameras and the guards. We reached the tree and started to look around for any clues. It was hard to see anything in the dim light, but I noticed a small red button at the foot of the tree. I touched it, curious to see what it could do. Suddenly, a small passage opened up in the tree, revealing a goddamn dark tunnel. I gasped in surprise and stepped back to look at it. Zane's eyes widened in shock as he saw the passage. He grabbed my arm and pulled me back. “Wait a minute, Miss Famous. Don’t go in there it could be a trap.” He remarked. “Let me go first, I am the cop, remember?” he said, flashing his badge. I rolled my eyes at him. He always acted like he was the man, and I was the damsel in distress. He forgot that I was a photographer and that I had seen my fair share of danger. I wanted to go in there and see what was inside. Maybe we could find the claw killer or some evidence. I heaved a sigh and pinched my nose clos

Nora’s POV "Don't go." I said and pulled him beside me on the hospital bed. I didn't want him to go, and I wanted to have him right now. I looked into his blue eyes and grabbed his hand, resting it on my waist. "We have been waiting for this moment for a long time, why are you suddenly hesitating? Is there something you are not..." He cut me off with a kiss before I could finish my speech, his lips muffling my words and his hand sliding under my shirt, caressing my back. I moaned and arched into him, loving his touch. He broke the kiss, looking into my eyes. "You are going to regret not letting me go," he said those words like a promise, his voice as smooth as velvet. "I am not." I replied. "I have wanted this for a very long time, don't think about tomorrow, don't worry, just stay." I didn't want him to overthink. He looked at me and sighed. He removed his clothes one by one, revealing his sculpted body, and I was lost for a second, his abs flexing as he bent and removed his pan
