All Chapters of Rogues and Royals: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Lucy’s POVThank Goddess. I wanted to yell for joy that I was getting fresh clothing, but tried to hide my excitement from Adam. He got out of the car and came to my side, holding out his hand for me to take and leading the way into the small store.The store kind of reminded me of those usual low cost dollar stores that had a little bit of everything; from clothing and undergarments, to dog food and cheap toys. “Here; get any clothes ya need and supplies to wash them with. Maybe a couple of snacks and food too; I’m gonna go out in petrol and keep an eye out.” He handed me a credit card with ‘Scott McDaniels’ as the name, shooing me on as he turned. “And don’t think about run in’. Ya have the bracelet on and I’m faster than you.” He winked at me as the store door closed behind him.“Prick.” I mumbled under my breath, giving a big sigh and taking the small shopping cart near me. I went for clothing first, a small ache growing in my stomach at the thought of no longer having Adam’s scen

Adam’s POVHmmmm. I didn’t like the way Lucy was sitting in the passenger seat; well, I did because her perky boobs were pressed out but also she looked uncomfortable. What are ya hiding, love? “Ya need a restroom?” It had been an hour since we left the small grocery, so it was plausible.“No.” She wiggled again in her seat like something was poking her in her back.Aha… ya naughty little minx. She had taken something from the store, and I could very well hazard to guess what it was. Alright; let’s see what game yer playing. I had been stealing things for years, basically since I was a teen; and I could recognize the face of someone who’d just stolen something for the first time.“We’re about another few hours out. I have a safe house from a friend up this way.” I tried making small talk, trying to get her to relax again. “You’ll love it; it’s a small cottage right on the shoreline.”“To be honest, Adam, I really don’t care. I just want to be back with my family.”Ouch. It was as if s

Adam’s POVI could hear her snoring gently in the other room, alerting me that it was time. I took the small blanket off of me and went to the door, noting that she did lock it with the small little lock on the handle. Tut, tut… you should know that won’t keep me out. I smiled as I pulled a small pick from my pocket, working it in and making quick work of the pins inside.When it released with a small pop, I froze to see if her breathing had changed. When it did not, I ever so carefully turned the knob and swung the door open as quietly as I could. I was in luck the hinges were in great shape, not making a sound and just stirring the air of the room as I creeped inside. Now where would she have put it? I looked around the room to see if something was disturbed, noting that all lamps were plugged in and furniture not moved.When I went in further, the door stopped sooner than what it should and made me pause. When I looked around, there was a pillow behind it that had been moved to rev

Adam’s POVDamnit and fuck me. I panted as I jogged into the house, remembering to be quiet at the last second. The phone I had left was undisturbed and the feint mews and snores coming from the bedroom were enough to inform me that Lucy was still here.I have time; I can do it. She still isn’t awake. I went over to the bedroom door and set all of the supplies I got down next to it, fishing out my lock pick and opening it again. I was quick in my work, setting the paper bag on the bed and the supplies next to the door. The one thing that made it all difficult though was that I could tell Lucy was just coming into her heat; her panting from the bed and the strong smell of pheromones in the room almost being too much for me.I had to leave multiple times while installing the padlocks, taking lungfuls of air outside before coming right back in to start it all over again. By the time I was done, I was drenched in sweat and my wolf, Dragon, was clawing and fighting me tooth and claw to be

Jason’s POVFucking meetings and fucking useless wolves. I was currently sitting in on another meeting with Felix at the council building, the investigation for Lucy turning up no ends at the Shepard Estate.“…. And that is why we should turn him free now.” An old and grumpy male had been lobbying for Shepard’s release because of the lack of evidence, furthering my suspicion that he was in their pocket all along.“The Midas law is there for a reason. He has made public threats to the royal family and his private jet was seen leaving Canada the night she disappeared. We cannot do that, especially with the evidence we do have.” Lady Gallant had her reports spread before her on the council table, showing the pictures and what they were able to find.“Circumstantial at best, pha!” The councilman waived his hand in irritation, making Gallant’s eyes flash yellow.“Ford; that’s enough.” The Chairman of the council, Bigsby, slammed his gavel down. “I think we’ve all had enough of your lobbyin
