I was furious as I sat there behind my desk. Did the African Council not investigate my statement at all? Why was there no mention of that? John was right about one thing, I had approved the wedding and I wouldn’t be able to lie about it. John himself was a truth seeker and he would only have to ask me once to know what I did.I didn’t care much about the consequences at that point. I was too enraged and now I was more determined than ever to end this thing without having to send Malika back to Mauritius.I looked at my watch and typed my reply to him. Why waste the time when I knew that I wouldn’t change my mind? No matter how much I thought about it, I wouldn’t do it.“Dear John,I will not send Malika back to Mauritius. She is a free human, to go and do as she pleases. She also doesn’t want to return to Mauritius. If Vincent Pierre wants her so badly, he can come and get her himself, but he will have me to deal with if he sets foot in my territory and that goes for any other wolf t

Malachi watched me but made no move to meet me halfway. His face was void of emotion and I had a hard time reading his aura. I pushed harder against the mental wall and his aura appeared and his guilt showed.“Sorry, I know you wanted to discuss this but I kind of had my hands full,” he said to me and I smiled. “It’s okay,” I replied.“But you did well on your own, there’s nothing I would have done differently,” he said to me and slapped me on the back.I was about to say something more but kept quiet as our pack members started leaving the den and shook our hands. Carl and Frank stopped in front of us and I smiled. I knew Carl’s mind was working overtime already.“If it comes to it, we go with you and we kill Vincent.”Frank nodded his head. “And whoever else we need to.”“Yeah. You’re not going down for this shit, Kiran,” Carl said.“It’ll be fine. Vincent has to prove his claims and a truth seeker will know, so I doubt there’ll be a tribunal.”Carl smiled and slapped me on the bac

We got the body parts loaded in the bags and we’d washed the floor, just in case. Frank and Carl had gone outside to make a fire to burn the carpet. We watched it burn in silence while Carl and Frank drank another three beers each. My phone beeped and I checked my messages. It was Robert. Robert: Thanks, I’m fine now. I put my phone away as Frank threw water on the fire.We all got into my car and drove towards the Bay when Carl grabbed me by the shoulders from behind. “How many bodies have you added to the Bay since Malachi’s wild days?” He asked me and I looked at him in the rear-view mirror.“Four, why?” I asked him. He was an odd character, a special kind of special, like Jessica would say.“Because you never asked where to go to dump them,” Frank answered and laughed. I smiled briefly and shook my head. I parked the Navigator and then reversed as close as I could. I opened the trunk with the remote and we started dumping the bags into the icy waters below. There was a storm bre

Jessica closed her eyes as I showed her the photo. Somebody was deliberately trying to cause havoc in our lives. Kudos to them because it was working. My wife and my father both hated me and it was the one time that I was actually innocent.“Somehow we just have to get Malachi to listen. If he can just read both our minds, he’ll see that we’ve never slept together,” I said to Jessica and she bit her lower lip.“That’s not technically true,” she said to me and now I was confused.“What do you mean technically? Either we did or we didn’t, and we didn’t!” I said to her as I ran my hands over my face and sat back.“We did. It was right after you dumped Sarah, when we first became friends. You came over one night, already half drunk, we got really wasted and not just alcohol. We smoked something too and the next minute we were naked in my room and it was awful,” she said to me.I felt the world spinning around me and the force of her words slammed into me. Had I been that lost that I could

Malachi went for Kiran and in his mind he could still hear him laughing. Malachi was on top of him as they fell to the floor, hitting him wildly as Kiran brought his arms up to protect his face. He could still smell Jessica's scent on himself but in his mind it was Kiran that smelled like her.“Malachi!” Kiran’s scream didn’t penetrate.He could hear Kiran’s heart slow down as he choked the life out of him and suddenly he was on the floor holding his head and screaming in pain. Malachi registered Kiran’s coughing next to him as he tried to breath and then the pain was just gone.Malachi stood up from the floor and he couldn’t believe that he had just done that. It was like all the fight had left him in an instant. He stalked up the stairs as he blinked the tears away, tears of anger and regret at having almost killed his own son.Malachi washed the blood from his hands and face and threw clothes into a duffel bag. He couldn’t be in that house anymore as more memories flooded him, memo
