Ralph’s POVTruth be told, I had nothing to expose; I was just making empty threats. I had told Mike to investigate Isaac Humphrey for me, but we hadn’t found anything yet. But I know that bullies of their caliber always have something to hide. Everything was just a psychological game.He chuckled, “It’s not like you have anything…”“So you want to test me, right?” I pressed on..The table was quiet, which meant that I was winning like I always do.“My conscience is clean, I have nothing to hide, so if you think you can worm your way out of this mess with empty threats, you better rethink…”“Excuse me, but my threats are never empty. Did you think I wouldn’t dig up your past?” I shot back at him. Both Mr. Lawson and Mr. Benson stared at him as if they were doubting him.He banged his fist on the conference table,“Listen, your people have started wreaking havoc in our counties, and we want you all gone. Stay in Moonlight where you belong.” He exploded.“Yes, Vandyke, as if the havoc i

Ralph’s POV“Erm… I’m sorry. I can’t hang out this weekend,” I said, got up, and started walking away from her.“Where are you going? Are you not lying low anymore?”I couldn’t come up with a good excuse. My family is back in our pack; they will not see me, nor will I see them. My son is here with me. I can see him anytime I want. He’s even decided to move back in with me.I had to come up with a great excuse to stop this woman from messing up my date.“Cory and I planned a father-son trip. We’re trying to get away for the weekend, do something fun, discuss family stuff, and come up with a new business idea.” I lied.“Is that true?” She asked.Of course, it wasn’t true but I can’t let her mess up my date.“Why will I lie to you?”“I want to come,” she suddenly said.“No!” I quickly shot it down.“Why not? I’m going to be part of this family…”Cory’s scent filled our noses and stopped our little argument.“Good, Cory is here. Let me ask him. I’m sure he will want me to tag along.”We b

Third-person POVWhen Cory noticed that the couple had left him all by himself, he got up from the gazebo and walked back to the room they had booked. His dad had booked two separate rooms, and though he assured him that he would share a room with him so Alison could have a room to herself, Cory knew his dad was lying.He unlocked the door and sneaked into the room, then took one last look around before locking the door. He put some rubber gloves on and unzipped his dad’s suitcase, there was a small compartment where he kept his condoms, Cory brought out every single one of the condoms then slid his hands into his pocket and brought out some pins. He knew how sharp his father’s eyesight was. It can pick up every little detail so he had to make sure he left no traces or made any mistakes.He selected the finest needle and pierced through the condom in the most careful way ever making sure it was unnoticeable even in his own eyes. He did the same to every single one of them then when he

Alison’s POVCory was going the extra mile to make me feel uncomfortable but what he doesn’t realize is that his anger gives me joy, I smirked. As we got on the deck of the yacht, I realized that I had been alive all my life but never living. This was a beautiful experience, how come Cory never did anything like this for me when we were dating? Did he hate me that much? He gave me the bare minimum, I could say that even our friendship was better than our relationship. I was beginning to regret ever dating him or giving myself to him.Vandyke walked up to me with two mocktails in his hands,“You are not a good drinker, right? It’s alcohol free.” He handed one to me and leaned on the railing, I did the same as we both sipped our mocktails.“I was expecting to see more people here than we’re seeing. It’s basically just us and a selected few.”He nodded, “I rented most of the rooms and part of the yacht for us,” he replied like it was nothing.“Why? That’s a waste of money,” I scolded him

Third Person POVEverything Cory had done up until this moment was targeted at getting Alison pregnant. He knew that pregnancy would be the only thing that would crumble whatever was brewing between his father and his ex-girlfriend. No matter how he looked at it, there was no way those two would survive a pregnancy. He excused himself just so he could give them the privacy to do whatever he wanted. As he walked leisurely through the streets his phone rang, he heaved when he noticed it was from Melody. He hesitated a minute before taking the call.“You guys are back already, welcome.” She said,“How did you know?” “You just walked past my favorite bakery, join me. Let me treat you to some croissants.”Cory seemed bubbly after getting unexpectedly invited, he turned around and went back into the bakery. Melody waved at him, and he briskly walked to her table to join her.“So how was your trip?” She asked as a waiter showed up with some croissants for Cory. He was feeling guilty for th
