Embarrassment washed over me as I thought about Kendrick potentially reading all my desperate text messages to Lucas.Hopefully Lucas deleted those before he ever got the chance. My cheeks turned red at the thought."I know this is putting a lot of doubt and pressure on you, but we need to continue this in order for my father to help us," Lucas explained as he silently urged me."No, you're right," I said. "I think seeing you today has helped me understand everything. Not being in contact with you for the past week has been really difficult."Lucas's voice was filled with earnestness as he asked, "So, could you keep up with this for a little longer? Once my father fulfills his end of the deal and fixes your debt, things will go back to normal. I promise you."I met his gaze, my hesitation evident. I tried to detect any lies on his face but couldn't see any. I wanted to believe that things would return to normal again, but what even was normal?The White Wolf hung over my head every si

Lucas POVAfter my father's latest request, I decided that Victoria and I needed to meet to discuss our plan further.I had a feeling she would be just as surprised as me, and I hoped she wouldn't want to call off our agreement. It was already a lot to ask of her and now, we had to speed up the process.I was thinking of visiting Victoria at her house but decided it would best to go somewhere away from prying eyes. Her parents weren't my biggest fans.Victoria suggested meeting at a small coffee shop on the other side of town. It would be the best place for us to go talk without someone we knew finding out.As we sat at a booth near the back corner, sipping our lattes, the weight of the situation weighed on on me."I'm guessing you don't have good news since you wanted to meet so urgently," Victoria said as she stirred her latte with a spoon."No really," I blew out a breath. "My father had made some recent... adjustments to our original agreement?""You mean, he's making his own rule

The past week is a blur of kisses, laughs, and hard work as Lucas and I meet every morning at Shadow High's training facility.I've felt my mood improved significantly thanks to how much time I've been able to spend with Lucas.He was trying to make sure that I felt special and appreciated every time he saw me. Every morning he'd greet me with a "Hello, beautiful" and wrap me in his arms for a hug.I felt better than I had in weeks since finding out about my wolf and my father's betrayal. Not only mentally and emotionally, but also physically.It seemed impossible to think that a few days of working out would be able to make such a change in my physical strength. Even Lucas mentioned it to me this morning as we finished our session."I can tell your body is craving the need to exert itself." Lucas also noted how toned I looked. "Don't you feel a difference?""My mind feels so clear," I told him. "Ever since we started training this week, I haven't felt any strangeness or overwhelming

Lucas POVMy father had decided to hold Victoria and I's engagement party at an elegant rooftop restaurant downtown that Victoria's parents owned.Instead of glowing golden chandeliers, the stars in the sky were the highlight, creating a lavish setting.Even though my father said that he wanted this to be a small gathering of people, I'd never seen so many people before in my life.It didn't help that I hardly knew any of them.A sea of well-dressed Alphas mingled, their snotty and obnoxious conversations filled the air. The conversations only surrounded topics of business, status, and connections.It was typical of them to continue to network, even at a more personal event such as this. This was to be expected.As much as I hated events like this and how fake everyone was, I had promised my father that I would be on my best behavior tonight. I didn't want to embarrass him in front of all of these people.It was one thing to do it in the private of our own home, but I didn't want to m

Who the hell are you?" James asked Edwin, furrowing his brows in confusion.James turned to me and in a low voice he whispered, "Is it just me, or do his eyes look strangely familiar?"My pulse raced as I stared at Lucas's mysterious cousin, his presence sending shivers down my spine. I couldn't shake the eerie feeling that he had some ulterior motive for being here.Fear and panic rushed through my body as I stared at Lucas's cousin. Had he followed me here? Was he actually crazy after all?If he was mentally insane then James and I weren't safe right now. I had no idea what Edwin was capable of, and suddenly, I remembered how he wanted to seek revenge on the Busch family.What if he was going to hurt me? What if I was a part of his plan for revenge?I grabbed onto the side front door, attempting to shut the door in Edwin's face, but he stopped me."Wait!" Edwin shouted, putting his hands up on the door, resisting my efforts to close it. "I know how this looks—""You know how this lo
