“Stop lying, Margaret.” His hushed yet thunderous voice boomed in all four corners, oozing with intimidation. “What happened was an accident. Forget it.”“No, no it wasn’t! You took me to your bed, Axel!” She countered, her voice shaky. “I could vividly remember everything! J-Just...”Margaret sobbed. Even from behind the ajar door, Leal could feel her despair. Of course, who wouldn’t be? No mother-to-be wants her child to be born without a father. That is just a big heartbreak. But it depends on who that father is. If the father is in a relationship, or not... A relationship with another woman. Just like their case.“Just please, please promise me you will father my child... I don’t want him to grow up with only one parent. I don’t want him to live life as I did—miserable. Axel, please, the child needs a father... Just give me this one,” Margaret’s voice weakened, her usual powerful tone gone. She sounded so fragile, and for the first time, Leal sympathized with her.She wants to be

“We found her, Alpha.”Axel’s eyes went to high alert, his eyes darting to all the monitors. He could feel his heart pounding in his chest, a sign of obvious nervousness. Could she really be hiding purposely from them? Or could she be kidnapped? Either bothers him.He silently watched the Upsilon relentlessly encode on the laptop, his eyes focused on the screen. The conference room was so quiet that they can hear the clock ticking at the wall. Minutes passed and the Upsilon finally showed him a map.It was a twenty-minute drive. That is, if you’re driving at 50 miles per hour, the speed limit. It was in Manhattan, in a lab all too familiar for him.His face hardened as they saw the gloomy sky fall to his face, darkening his gaze to the innocent screen.“F u cking Ministry,” he seethed, gritting his teeth. Everyone in the room could feel the steam coming out from him, suffocating the conference room and heating the place.“Calm down, Alpha. We still need to formulate an infiltration pl

“Have you seen the news?”Tyrone sat in front of Axel and stole a shot glass on the cupboard, pouring himself a glass of Axel’s vodka. In the middle of the night, they’re discussing the news. He sighed and shook his head.“No.”“Well, you should’ve,” he pointed at him, “Because you’re a suspect for Atty. Excil’s murder. Remember him? Leal’s ex?”He rolled his eyes. He really has to remind his friend to control his mouth sometimes. “I remember him. Now shut up.”Tyrone squinted his eyes at him, studying how Axel’s face didn’t show an ounce of surprise in hearing Excil’s death, before throwing his head back and laughing. He repeatedly shook his head, a smile plastered on his face. “You... You killed him, didn’t you?”He remained silent, earning Tyrone a silent yes. His laugh echoed on the silent bar as if hearing a murderer confess to his crime is a joke.“How did we never think of this?” He snorted. “The answer was right in front of us!”He downed the vodka.“I made a deal with the Min

“What?! They injected you those shenanigans?!”Leal nodded. She didn’t know how they ended up talking about this over breakfast, but it did happen. She’s now currently seated across the two in the dining area, chatting about what happened to her in the lab. She never wanted to hide anything from her best friend, but with everything happening, it’s all gone too complicated to be able to be explained. Plus, she didn’t want Izzy to be indulged in the chaotic world of the werewolves when she belonged to the human world. But she just can’t make out a full lie, so, she always ends up leaving out a few parts to make it seem like she’s a normal girl hunted on because of her parents’ debt.“Why the f u ck would they?! I bet you those were more expensive than the debt your parents owed them! Ugh!” She irritatedly chewed on her pancakes, cooked by Ryker, surprisingly.“Calm down, babe,” Ryker chuckled, giving her a glass of water after she choked. Leal avoided the sweet scene and quietly munched

Even after putting her young offspring to sleep, Leal didn’t have an ounce of sleepiness in her system. She’s still wide awake, like the night owl that she is. After minutes of blankly staring at the ceiling, Leal sighed and stood up. She quietly pulled the chair on her study table, opening her laptop on the desk. While it was opening, she picked up her phone and dialed a familiar number.[Hello?]“Hi, Ellie.”Even after years of not talking to each other back then, Leal still managed to contact Ellie, her former workmate in the publishing house, and ask her to be her editor. Luckily, she quickly agreed and look at them now. A freshly published writer and a head editor.[Leal! I was waiting for you to call all day! I have big news!]She softly chuckled. “I’m sorry for not calling in earlier, I had to put Anna to sleep first.”That was a lie. She forgot she was supposed to call today. Looks like she’s gotten better at lying.“What is it you wanna tell me?”[It’s big news! Your first no
