All Chapters of His Claws On My Neck: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Two years.Two f u cking years after her disappearance, after the company’s near-bankruptcy, after Axel nearly getting arrested for alleged insanity, and so much more. Basically, two years after his life turned upside down.Axel quietly sipped his morning coffee while looking out at the view of downtown Brooklyn from his penthouse. He was topless, leaving him only with sweatpants that hung dangerously low on his waist. After years of flying all over the world and hiring the best private investigators, wasting his and the company’s money to get around the world, he finally took a few months off and let his father grip the sinking company. It was slowly sinking down to rock bottom, flooding with debts. Just this week, he was informed that it was slowly becoming stable again. It lost its spot in NYC’s top companies, but thankfully, the pack still roars at the top. Of course, who wouldn’t? They were raiding almost every pack in the state, rummaging their territories for their missing Luna

[I feel so lonely here! I have to go there, ugh! I need Anna — and you, of course!] Gushed Izzy from the other line. Leal chuckled and shook her head to little Anna by her side who pointed to a toy. They’re currently at a mall in Bern, and Izzy was just blabbering about how much she misses the two. She last visited them on Christmas, which was already a few months ago.“You can visit us anytime, Izzy, it’s just expensive so I always tell you to just FaceTime us,” she said, the three of them stopping in front of an indoor children’s’ playground. Anna squealed and jumped up and down, looking up at her meaningfully.She didn’t even notice where they were going because Big Rory was the one leading the walk! Gosh, now she can’t not let Anna play.[Why is she squealing? Is there a celebrity there?]“Izzy, why would Anna recognize a celebrity? A cartoon character, more likely so.”She darted Rory a questioning look who replied with a grin and led Anna inside herself.“Look, I’ll talk to you

Hearing it come out from his lips made a weird feeling settle on Leal’s stomach. It felt so foreign coming from him, the word family. He never called his father his family, but he called them his family – the illegitimate family. He probably called Margaret and their child that too, but hearing him calling them that, it… it just washes away all her envy. Her desire to have a complete family is gnawing inside her.Before Big Trisha says any more, Leal quickly twisted the knob and stepped outside – despite her reddening cheeks. She locked eyes with him, his jet-black dark eyes making contact with her hazel ones, a scene similar to when Anna’s wolf took over back at the mall and had the same soulless, void eyes. They had the same eyes, and she actually feared he’d see her features last time so she hid Anna. But today, seeing him in front of their cabin just made her heart race.She knew he’s going to find her someday after not seeing each other and leaving everything unsettled for two an

“Leal!” Izzy squealed as soon as she saw her best friend waiting at her at the airport. Leal smiled brightly and welcomed her with a tight hug.They pulled away as Leal’s eyes drifted to the man behind Izzy, pushing their baggage. She immediately raised an eyebrow at Izzy.“I thought you were going alone?”“Yeah…” Izzy scratched the back of her head. “I thought so too.”“Oh, hey Leal!” Ryker grinned at her, flashing her his signature boyish grin. “I won’t be hanging out with you girls too much, I have to go meet Axel.”Izzy shot him a look she’s sure only the couple can understand but said nothing. They hailed a cab and Ryker talked to the driver before placing Izzy’s things on the trunk. They both bid goodbye to him and even from inside, Leal saw Ryker take a photo of the cab’s plate number. He can just track them with their phones but sure, that’s easier.“Ugh! I missed Switzerland!” Exclaimed Izzy as soon as they got inside the cab. Leal smiled at the driver and told him to drop th

Leal is beyond words right now.She couldn’t process everything happening because it was too fast and gave her nothing but nausea. She couldn’t pick up as fast as the others, resulting in her standing there, idle, while everybody else ran around and filled her ears with violence.Seriously, can’t her life keep quiet for a while?She didn’t even react when he leaned in for a peck and left, in what she tells you, is the most devilishly attractive way a man can go. He was biting his sunglasses in a way she couldn’t help but sexualize while firing straight into an intruder’s skull. Mind you, he was still in his all-black three-piece, an outfit not made for such action. And his slightly disheveled pushed-up hair—God, he was driving her insane.“Leal!”She was snapped out of her daydream with Big Rory’s frowning face. She was still holding her bat and was snapping her fingers in front of her.“H-Huh?”“Stop fanning over that man,” she scolded. “As much as I hate his guts, he’s right when he
