71 - The Mystery Department

Pushing the door open after two knocks, Derek entered the CEO office of Knights & Co. "Good day, sir." He delivered his greeting with a bow. The room was spacious, the large ceiling-floor window allowing a magnificent view of the city. Paul had kept the decoration of his office simple, with sparse but luxurious furniture, and only the most needed equipment. Sitting behind his unnecessarily wide desk, he typed on his laptop. And although he noticed the entrance of his beta, he did not lift his gaze from the screen. "Yes. Yes. Come." He urged mildly, then poked at a thin file beside his laptop once Derek drew near. "Take this to the study at my home." The silent order was nothing out of the ordinary, so Derek thought nothing of it as he slid the file from the desk. In the process, several papers slipped to the floor, and he bent to pick them up. His eyes caught part of the title on one of the pages as he stood up... DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATION AND DATA MANAGEMENT. There was

72 - The War Centuries Ago

The instant Belinda stepped into the Peach Valley Orphanage, children swarmed around her, as they always did. As usual, she laughed as she greeted them, and as usual, they squealed as she unloaded what she'd bought for them. She waited till they lost interest in her, going off to play with their new toys, before she stood up. Ellie was waiting at a table with a cup of coffee and a plate of biscuits. "You don't always have to get them something every time you come, you know." She said as Belinda took the seat opposite her. "I don't welcome you because of what you give me." "It's the kids, I've already formed a habit with them. Anything less would be a disappointment." Adjusting the position of her chair, Belinda settled into her seat. "They're fond of you." Ellie pointed out. Belinda smiled at that observation. "I'm fond of them too." "I can see that." Pausing just before her lips sipped from her cup, Ellie studied Belinda. Then, as though she'd seen what she'd bee

73 - Future Plans

Derek was waiting for Belinda at their spot in the private park. He stood at the very same spot at the stone bridge, looking down at the clear waters as he battled with his thoughts. Raising his hand to his face, he stared at the screen of his phone. "We need to talk." The message on the screen read. He'd been so unsure before he'd sent that text to Belinda. He still was. For one, the Lycan had made it abundantly clear he didn't want him anywhere near "his woman". And the last meeting he'd had with the one in question still rattled his bones. The woman was his ex, for the moon goddess' sake, who had openly shown aggression towards his pack. She was the last person he should be associating with. His doubts became irrelevant as a soft feminine voice called his name. "Derek." Well, he couldn't back out now. Pocketing his phone, he turned in the direction of the voice. "Hello, Belinda." "I admit I was a bit surprised that you contacted me." Belinda moved to his side. She kept

74 - A Mansion In Topeka

Marcus was busy this afternoon, concentrated on supervising a group of men as they loaded cocaine into the building's underground basement. So, when his boss' mistress approached him, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed. "Not a good time, Belinda." He grumbled through his teeth. "I know." Flashing him a brief smirk, she sashayed to his side. Her arms folding across her chest, she joined him to monitor the movers. "I need your help." "That was pretty obvious." Marcus signaled a man to move a package to a specific corner.At that moment, Belinda hesitated to continue. Even if Marcus refused to help her, she had no doubt that he wouldn't snitch on her. Their easy friendship had developed that much. Then why was she scared to open up to him? Taking a deep breath, she decided there was no problem as long as she said nothing that implicated herself. "How much do you know about the Sorcerer Clan?" She asked. "Why? Are you involved with them somehow?" For a sec

75 - The Woman In The Painting

Lifting her hand, Belinda pressed her fingers to the rough colors strewn about the canvas, staring up at a face so eerily similar to her own, that she saw herself in it. But it couldn't be her. The lips of the woman in the painting were curved upwards, but it was nothing like the cold smile that never reached the eyes, which seemed to be all Belinda could manage. The painter had captured the twinkle in the silver eyes, and joy in her facial features. This woman appeared genuinely happy; unlike Belinda, she truly smiled. The Lycan stood beside the mysterious woman, his dark eyes and smile just as bright as her own. The way his hand was protectively wrapped around her waist, the way his body unconsciously leaned towards her, Belinda could tell she was someone important to him. But who was she? They were both dressed fashionably, or at least they would have been considered so in the late American 1800s. Belinda ran her fingers around the woman's jaw, down her slender neck, an

76 - The Grave At Topeka

The doorbell rang, and Marcus strolled over to answer it. He opened the door to view Luisa's smiling face. She leaned on the doorpost, raising her hand to dangle the nylon she carried. "I got us some takeouts." She didn't wait for permission to sashay into the apartment, as she'd been there too many times to need to. Marcus' gaze followed her as she entered, watching as she dropped the takeouts on the nearest table and turned to him. He closed the distance between them, and she cupped his cheeks as she planted a kiss on his lips. Snaking an arm around her waist, Marcus deepened the kiss, using his tongue to part her lips. His body was pressed to hers, and as he let himself sink into her comforting softness, the shaft between his legs came to attention. Her laughter a light charming sound, Luisa pulled back. "Naughty boy." She playfully smacked his chest. Successfully wriggling out of his grip, she proceeded to the table. "Let's eat." Despi

77 - Whatever Is Driving Belinda Knight

Before stepping into the store, Derek paused, his eyes studying the gold letters encrusted on a gleaming white plate. Once again, he wondered what he was doing here. Only half an hour ago, the alpha's fiancée had texted him to meet her, emphasizing the urgency of the summons. He'd obeyed, but who held an important meeting in a bridal shop? On entering the reception, a woman dressed smartly in a black suit smiled up at him. She sat behind a large white desk and her name tag read "Maggy". "I'm here for Lila Salvador." Derek announced as he took a look around at the wide room. Everything, down to the furniture and decor, was immaculate, fancy, and overly... white. "The 10-11 appointment?" Maggy's smile brightened. "Right this way." She led him down a short hallway, stopping in front of one of the four doors lining the path. Lila stood on top of a raised platform inside the fitting room, checking her angles in a tall mirror as the owner inspected the beautiful wedding dress sh

78 - Fang Bites

Lexie couldn't take it anymore. Sometime the previous afternoon, Belinda had returned from her trip—with the Lycan who was not supposed to be aware she was gone. No one had sighted the beautiful omega since then. Rumors were swirling, and the fact Belinda wasn't taking any calls wasn't helping matters. All Lexie wanted to do was confirm her friend wasn't dead, and if that was the case, plead that she be given a proper funeral. Tapping her foot furiously on the metal floor, her arms folded across her chest, she impatiently waited for the elevator to reach the penthouse. She emitted a haughty huff as the contraption dinged and the doors began to slide open, but as she made to step out, she was met with a familiar face. "You!" Belinda gingerly lifted an eyebrow at the other woman's overly emotional exclamation, but before listening any more or asking any questions, she pushed into the elevator. With the source of her anxiety now beside her, Lexie did not hesitate to go off on her.

79 - Slush Funds And Beer

Belinda sat properly on the couch, with her back straight, her legs crossed, and a hand atop her knee. Derek sat across from her on another couch, more casually, one ankle over the other in the famous yoga pose. They sat in his living room in his high-rise apartment, alone and with the television off. They were both discussing important matters, so there was no need for a TV show or any other distractions. Tilting her head slightly to the side, Belinda went over the new piece of information she'd just received. "Let me get this straight," She said. "Paul has a secret slush fund which he hides and transports through a paper company under Knights & Co." Derek shrugged. "That's about it." It all sounded too good to be through. "This is perfect." While a corner of her lips lifted slightly in a pleased smile, a plan took form in her head. "Slush funds are illegal, so it will most definitely get Paul in trouble if exposed. And what's better, the paper company is solely owned by him a

80 - The Perfect Antidote To Heartbreak

In the elevator of the skyscraper, Belinda made to punch the buttons to the penthouse, but she drew her hand back at the last minute. She realized that she did not wish to see the Lycan. It wasn't that she was offended by him. No, her head kept telling her she had no right to be, and she had no ground to place her anger on. She simply didn't want to bear the ache that pierced her heart every time she saw him. She couldn't understand why she was being this way. Ever since her brother's painful death, she'd shut herself up, burying the hurt where it could no longer torment her. It'd been easier to live that way, ignoring the memories that scarred her and relying on her anger to get her through. But she'd been careless. Belinda had opened up her heart again, and now the pain was back, as strong as before and even more vicious. Deciding on her next destination, she set the elevator to take her to one of the middle floors. She could not spend the entire night at Lexie's—she had a duty to
