Gianna Marino I returned to an empty room. I didn't hear him leave."Oh, thank the gods." I breathed a sigh of relief and headed to my wardrobe.I kept it simple with my outfit. A wine coloured, knee-length office gown, a simple set of jewellery to elevate the outfit and a flat black shoe and black bag.For my hair, a high pony went well with the neckline of the dress.I rushed out of my room and almost clashed with the maid who was approaching my door.I held her like she was a tray that was going to tumble over. My reflex was quick when it came to falling things since I've had quite an experience pouring Beatrice's tea and paying dearly for it."Sorry Nana." I apologised when I saw it was the woman who'd spoken to me the first day I was brought into the pack.She giggled sheepishly. "It's okay child. I brought you lunch." She held out the lunch pack in her frail hands and I quickly collected it to ease her stress of holding something so heavy."Oh Nana, you shouldn't have bothered

Alessio GiordanoGianna's full of surprises. I never thought I'd see this side of her. First, she disobeys me by going on a date with someone I clearly warned her about. And she stood up to me without an atom of fear. I stood in the room for a few seconds, amused by the conversation I just had with the girl I was supposed to be saving. “Interesting.” I muttered with a smirk. This was my first time entering her room and it was almost empty. I picked up the paper on the bed out of curiosity and the heading made me pause. The date was the same day her father told me he would attend a meeting but he never came back from that meeting to tell me what went wrong. How a business meeting turned into a set up. Matteo was in my office when I got there. “What's up cuz? Did something happen? You look.. Different.”“I found this in her room.” I handed him the paper as I took my seat. “These are the names of the people involved in her father's death.”“Alpha Dmitri too?” Matteo asked. “Why a

Alessio Giordano“She's here now, I kept her busy with some work. Get down to work.” Was my reply to Matteo who informed me that he had gotten to Gianna’s office. I'd sent him to her father's company after I discovered the paper on her bed last nightI figured she found it at the office and if she did, then there had to be more information there. “Don't you think she'll be angry and suspicious of the sudden change of plans?”Matteo was meticulous. He could find even the hardest things and decipher all kinds of codes so I trusted he would bring back a positive update by the end of the day. “I communicated the perks and especially the downsides of working with me to her before she started and she promised to do anything just to stay under my roof. If she complains, all I have to do is remind her that she agreed to it herself.”Matteo said something in response to what I said but I didn't hear what he said because Gianna barged into my office with the files I'd given her to work on.

Alessio Giordano“They are all working with other Alphas from other packs. This is not a one man plan.” Matteo placed a bunch of files on my table and sat himself down. “Were you discreet enough?” My main concern was making sure Gianna never found out what I did. “Yes. No one saw me walk in Oregon out.” “Good. Go on.”“They are all involved in other shady deals. Trafficking, slave trade, hard drugs, same old same old. But nothing is linked to the death of her father. There are no whispers about it either.”“That's strange.” “Exactly what I thought.” Matteo sat up. “You see, whenever anything happens among the Alphas, there must be rumors. But everyone is quiet about this particular case. It's as though they don't want to talk about it.”I pressed my fingers against my jaw. “It means they're hiding something.” I put two and two together. The pack was awfully quiet after his death was announced. I wondered why too but didn't want to butt into the business of the supposedly grievin

Gianna MarinoI was glad the duo let me pass without giving me a tough time. Coming back to another drama was a luxury I couldn't afford. I'd already pictured myself getting a hot bath and getting all cuddled up in my sheets when his voice startled me. “Wh.. What do you want?” I cursed myself mentally for the stutter. “The last I checked, your office closes by six in the evening. Care to explain why you have been coming back late these days?” He placed his hands on his waists. Waiting for me to answer. “I just need some space outside work.” I replied with a cold voice. Just leave me alone! “You do know that walking around carefree is reckless and stupid. There are many people looking for you and the only reason they haven't gotten to you is because of who I am.”“If you put yourself in harm's way, you'll be giving yourself to them on a platter.” I don't think it's me, I think Alessio has developed the habit of nagging me recently. He doesn't know how it irks me to hear him re
