CHAPTER 201Bruno I woke up a little early since I had to get the car ready to take Shakira to the ladies’ Dom. I've been trying my best to accept that Patricia is but sometimes I accidentally call her name when I'm not finding a sock or when something unexpected happens.The way life has changed without her is so unbelievable. It's like a dark cloud is following me. The way sadness sometimes haunts me like a tattoo that is forever following my presence.I'm trying to keep up and stay busy so my thoughts won't divert and make me start with the painful memories. I made my way out of my room and ran into Shakira at my door. I thought she was still asleep.“Morning is everything OK?" I asked, looking at her in awe.“Yes…Yes, I'm fine. I just wanted to see if you're awake or—" "OK, would you like me to do something for you?” I cut her off."Yes, I…I would like you to help zip my dress later," she said with a smile before it disappeared when she realized I wasn't reacting.“I hope I did

CHAPTER 203Zion I didn't feel Shakira's energy anymore. It was like she had started acting strange. After Bruno told me everything that had happened on their way back I had no choice but to suspect Shakira of trying to fool us. “Your Highness is everything OK?" Bruno asked, looking at me.“Yes, I'm fine, but do you think Shakira is trustworthy?" I asked him.“I don't know honestly. Her moods just seemed to switch from time to time. It's like she was possessed or something," Bruno said as I shook my head.If it wasn't for Aria. I would have taken her back to that Dom myself. My brother was a very deceptive person, and having someone who had been around him for years is somehow worrying.A part of me just felt like she was sent. Bruno's focus changed to the women who were dancing only for me to realize Patricia's favorite song was playing.“Are you OK?" I tapped my hand on his shoulder.“Yes, I'm fine. I think I should go to sleep now," he said before heading inside.I spent some hou

CHAPTER 205Zion My anger had reached a peak, and I wasn't going to tolerate that amount of disrespect. Jordan kept cursing at me, and I would have disfigured his face if it wasn't for Bruno, who intervened on time.I made my way out and signed the paperwork from the elders. I had enough. Just as I got back to the car Jordan was being taken to the judgment tree.Its loud bell began to ring and all the Pack members started going to the tree. I didn't want to be there, but my presence was needed, so I asked Bruno to drive us there.I looked at my phone and saw Aria's call incoming. Just as I was about to pick it up, it ended, so I called her back.“Babe what's happening?" she asked.“Jordan is being persecuted," I responded.“What? I mean are you sure you want this?" she asked.“Justice must be served," I responded before she asked me to keep strong as the call ended.We drove to the venue and everyone had already gathered. I was about to get out but a part of me refused.“You don't h

CHAPTER 207Zion I reached the location Derrick had sent me but he wasn't there yet. I didn't take Bruno along but could feel him coming. Aria was definitely the one who asked him to follow.“Sorry," I heard a tired voice behind my back when I turned around and saw Derrick who was breathing heavily.It was as if he had been running from Nightshade. “I'm not here to wait. What do you want?" I responded looking like I didn't care.“I need your help Zion. I have never touched that woman. She's busy accusing me of all that," Derrick started.“Is this a joke or something? A few days ago you wanted to take that same woman home and now you want to be helped from her," I said looking at him with disgust.“I know that's why I called you here. Look, Shakira has been hurting herself badly for the past 2 months. I've tried to stop her, but she kept calling me names and then mentioned something about the shares our parents promised to give me,” Derrick said, and I wondered how he could have ment

CHAPTER 209Aria “I can't believe you're doing this Aria. He's going to ruin us. You know what I'm leaving,” Shakira said about making her way upstairs when Derrick blocked her way.She was about to push him out of her way but then stopped to look back at us before she started crying."You know you're lying, Shakira, just tell them the truth,” Derrick said."What truth? I don't know what you're talking about, please just leave me alone,” she replied.Before Derrick could say anything else Shakira ran outside. I was going to follow her but Bruno held me back.“I think we should give her some time," he said, and I agreed and then asked the maids to show Derrick his room.Zion came to kiss me and then headed out with Bruno. I was just with Nia, the twins, Derrick, and Shakia, who was being dramatic.After some minutes, Shakira made her way to the living room; this time her face was serious. It was as if she had been possessed by something.“Are you still going?" I asked since she had ma
