Diego paused, "then there is only one way left," he said.Lucian bristled, "What way?"Diego let a small, sharp laugh slip out. "Doesn't the casino have that savage kind of betting where you stake more than coins? Were you able to stake your own body? Lucian you could stake yourself." He smiled..Lucian felt the room shrink. His pack name, his family, the weight of Drake pressed on him. "But what if the other party refuses," he snapped. "How about this? I will sign an accord with you all. I will stake myself. You trust that I will repay. Is it possible that Travers Corporation, large as it is, would fall into your debt? My brother in law is the president of Hamilton Corporation."Diego folded his hands, all calm. "Lucian it is not that I trust you less. It is that our borrowing ward has never signed a pact where the person is the collateral." His laugh cracked the air. "Why not go and discuss it with others first."Heat flooded Lucian blood. He did not bow. "I do not care. No matter t

Aaron's eyes moved toward the inside of the car, and landed on a small pink child’s car seat. Slightly as she muttered,“Pink?”Dolphus’s hand rested on the door frame. “You came back unexpectedly, Aaron. That seat was meant for Lexa. You can sit in it for now. Tomorrow, we’ll get one in a color you like.”Aaron had already guessed long before. That this was Dolphus’s car. He never needed to explain. He climbed in slowly, but when she saw how he had prepared for Lexa, he gave a stiff nod, showing no smile, but not refusing him.Without delay, Dolphus tapped his phone and placed a video call.Elena’s face appeared almost instantly. When she saw Aaron strapped in the pink seat, arms crossed and chin lifted high.“You grow bolder every day,” Elena scolded sharply. “You flew back alone with only a note left behind. Do you know what could have happened? You’re only five! What if bad wolves or worse crossed your path?”Aaron turned his head away, and muttered, “I’m not even five yet. I’m st

Cassandra bit her lip hard. She had only wanted to help the Hamilton family settle this matter, hoping to earn favor with them and prove that her family wasn’t the trouble Drake’s mother always claimed they were. But instead, everything had fallen apart. If Drake’s mother found out what happened, she would never stop despising her.“Cassie, please!” Lucian's voice trembled as he dropped to his knees before her. “If you call Drake, this matter can still be fixed. I swear, I will never gamble again. I swear by the moon goddess!” His hand rose in a desperate pledge, his eyes wide with fear. “Sis, please save our family. I beg you.”The scent of fear and shame rolled off Lucian in waves. He had brought ruin upon them again, yet he was still her family. She could not simply turn away.She finally nodded, and she said, “I will see how much I can gather, then I’ll call Drake.”Cassandra knew once Drake learned of this, there would be no need in hiding it anymore. The only thing left was to m

Drake’s mother had just returned from the outer borders when her eyes landed on Cassandra sitting quietly in the living room.Cassandra quickly lowered her gaze out of respect. “Good evening, Mrs Hamilton.”Thinking that Mrs Hamilton's anger was because of her family’s latest issue, Cassandra hurried to explain. “I went to the company but found out that Drake wasn’t there, so I came here to wait for him. I wanted to ask if Travers Group could assist in any way. After all, it was Lucian who caused this mess, and I’m afraid it might affect the accord with Durok Biotech Company.”“What trouble has that boy stirred up now?” Mrs Hamilton asked sharply.Cassandra was startled by Mrs Hamilton's sudden outburst. “There... um... There are some issues with the Travers Group’s funds.”Though Drake’s mother had been out of business affairs long ago, she still knew every thread that tied their pack’s fortune together.The contract between the Hamilton Corporation and Durok Biotech Company required

Elena’s fingers moved quickly across her phone screen as she responded to Diego's message.“Please follow Miriam's instructions, and know how to handle Lucian while I’m away…” Elena responded. Then the doorbell rang sharply.“Ding dong”Startled, Elena placed her phone down, but Diego asked her to sit back while he hurried toward the door.When he opened it, standing there was Dolphus and beside him Aaron stood silently, a suitcase nearly as tall as him resting at his side.Diego immediately excused himself and left.Dolphus’s large hand rested gently on the boy’s head. Elena welcomed them, then bent down immediately as she scooped Aaron into her arms. The boy clung to her neck.“I can handle this from here,” Dolphus murmured, stepping forward to take the suitcase from him.Elena kept her tone calm as she asked, “Have you arranged all of the company’s affairs?”“Don’t worry,” Dolphus replied. “Everything has been handled. I haven’t taken a break in years, but this will help out. If
