Chapter 51DAMON"You mean the children that aren't even hers?" I shot back, my patience finally snapping completely as I was ready to get to the other side of the table and rip his head from his shoulders "And the wife you've been consistently abusing for six years?"The elders exchanged glances with each other before Elder Richard spoke again. "These are serious accusations from both sides. However, the photographic evidence suggests this woman was quite happy in her marriage with Max here."Another image appeared on the screen, Isabella this time around was with Tommy and Sean in the school. I remembered this scene. This happened days ago and whoever took this picture had carefully edited Lucas and I from it. In the picture, she was helping them with their assignments, both boys on her laps and she looked at them with maternal affection. Again, she looked content, peaceful even.That was when it hit me. Someone had been watching us all along, probably since that wolf attack and h

Chapter 53ISABELLAThe natural sun rays that were pouring in through my office window were perfect, bright enough for reviewing the designs that I was given, just as James had promised me earlier.I spent the morning, getting settled in my space, and got out my sketching materials and spent some time getting familiar with the current projects that were assigned to our department.Now, several hours into my first real day of work, I was discovering just how much the fashion designs here needed some new fresh eyes to go over them because these pieces were ridiculous.I spread the portfolio of designs across my desk, each one representing weeks of carefully planned out wears by the previous one in charge of this event. These were the outfits that were planned to be worn for next week's Met Gala, and it was specifically prepared for the cast of "Longing Hearts," the bestselling movie that had everyone talking about the movie. The event would be covered by every major fashion magazine, a

Chapter 55ISABELLAAfter the confrontation that I had with Amber, I found myself walking toward James's office holding on tightly to my portfolio that contained the alternative sketches for the Met Gala. My heart was still racing from the altercation, but I knew I had to focus on the work that needed to be done. The Met Gala was happening live and direct next week, and regardless of personal conflicts within the company, those celebrities needed outfits that wouldn't embarrass them or our company.I knocked on James's door, and waited for him to give me permission to enter. When he did, I walked in, as he looked up from his computer with a welcoming smile that faltered slightly when he saw my expression. He narrowed his eyes at me, as if he was speculating about something but thankfully, what came out of his mouth was work related."Isabella, how did the design review go? You look a bit... flustered."I took a deep breath and decided to be upfront about what happened, There was no

Chapter 57 DARIUSThe hot sun was perfect against my skin as I lounged on the deck of my yacht, a glass of perfectly chilled Château Margaux in my hand and the sound of waves lapping against the hull creating the ideal soundtrack for relaxation. The yacht was anchored off the coast of Monaco, and I was surrounded by some of the most beautiful women I'd ever had the pleasure of entertaining in this particular vacation that I was on. They were models, high class socialites, and movie actresses who had flown in for the sole purpose to join me for this impromptu vacation.Sophia, a stunning Brazilian model with curves that could stop traffic itself if she walked naked, was applying sunscreen to my shoulders while laughing at something her friend Valentina had said in rapid Italian. I was low key paying attention as well and the story was funny. Who uses super glue as lube and they had to be taken to the ER like that.Aside from that, the music was low and hypnotic, which appealed to m

Chapter 59AMYI sat in my car outside Max's apartment building, my hands were gripping the steering wheel so tightly that my knuckles had turned white from pressure, but it did nothing to soothe the rage that was coursing through my body. My whole body was twisted up in knots and for the first time in a while, I had no idea how to deal with this kind of situation. The engine was still running, the humming noise doing nothing to help me at all, but I couldn't bring myself to drive away yet. I needed a few more minutes to process the absolute humiliation I'd endured over the past twenty-four hours.The news had gone viral, barely an hour after Damon had commanded us to leave his company and I knew this was also because he had released it himself. Every supernatural news outlet, every gossip blog, every social media platform was buzzing with the story of how Damon Rodriguez had publicly dissolved our engagement and announced his intention to marry some nobody. The headlines were bru
