"Yes, I wasn't in support. Because neither of you knew what you wanted. Talking to you that night only proved me right. But now, with your absence, Julian seems lost. I guess the absence was all the brain resetting he needed. He’s now realized that he wants you. Please, talk to him. He still maintains you're the only woman he loves and has promised to talk with Tania Beecroft."I let out a bitter laugh."He wants me. Did he tell you that, or did you just decide to assume that he feels that way? Aldine, what does he really want? Getting another assistant is some piece of cake. It can be sorted out in minutes. So, what does he want? He told you what we had was a mistake, he looked you in the eye the night at your family dinner and said that to you, and now he wants me back, as his what exactly?"The frustration I've been suppressing finally slips out."Aggs, calm down, that’s why I’m suggesting that you speak to him. At least that will give you a clearer picture of what’s going on.""No

~Tania~I was in shock for a while after leaving Agnes's house.My visit proves only one thing: she has the same type of pendant I saw at Julian's house.I assume that since she has the same pendant and her middle name is Tracy, the necklace was crafted for her, and Julian was the one who gifted it to her.That would mean both of them are either dating or they once dated.It could also mean they’re just friends. But I find myself unable to think in that direction.First thing the next day, I get ready as fast as I can and decide to make a quick stop at the Smith and Agary branch handled by Julian before heading to my company.I meet him at the entrance of Smith and Agary, and the shock on his face is evident."We need to talk," I say as I walk past him into the open elevator.Julian stands at the spot for a moment before rushing in to join me.We arrive at his office floor and step out hurriedly.Out of people's earshot, he turns to me, "What's wrong. Why are you here this early? Is t

~Jess~A dull, relentless ache pounds behind my eyes as my consciousness slowly returns.I groan softly and try to move my body. Pain immediately shoots through my wrists.My eyes snap open, greeted by stark darkness at first, which my eyes eventually adjust to.For the first moment, I can't seem to understand what I'm looking at.The air around me is damp, and the smell of rust, mold, and stagnant water hangs heavily.I try to sit up. That's when I realize my hands are bound behind my back.A sharp wave of panic crashes into me.What-Where am I?My breathing quickens as I force myself upright, my vision slowly adjusting to the dull-lit room.The walls surrounding me are made of rough stone, darkened by maybe moisture. The continuous, rhythmic sound of dripping water is heard somewhere in the room.At the far end of the room, I make out a heavy metal barrier made of thick iron bars. Beyond it stands a masked, armed guard.My stomach drops as I begin to struggle against my restraints.

~Allister~Ending the call with Beshar Gabret, I lean back in my chair, my mind occupied with the fact that he’s managed to secure a meeting with one of the princes and me.I rub a hand across my face and sigh.The past few weeks have been nothing but chaos. Having my men search and comb almost the ends of the earth for Jefferson hasn’t been easy, and being on Beshar’s neck for a meeting with at least one of the princes as well has been crazy.A knock sounds on my office door, and Angel pushes it open.Seeing him still limping, I immediately frown."What are you doing out here, again?" I ask him.He limps closer and drops a thick brown envelope onto my desk. “You need to see this, Alpha,” he tells me.I look at the envelope, then at him, "What’s in it?"Angel pushes his frame into one of the empty seats.“Alpha,” he calls. “It seems Jessica White has been playing all of us. And, I have proof."I eye him cautiously and slowly drag the brown envelope closer. "What?"I open the envelope

"But there is-” before he can finish speaking, Leo storms inside.His usually calm appearance is gone. His face is pale, and he looks terrified and very worried.Immediately, my instincts go on alert. "What happened?" I ask him.He looks from me to Angel. "It's Jess, Alpha," he replies."What about Miss Jess?" worry clouds me so much that I’m even surprised my voice came out steady.Leo swallows. "I just received information regarding Sarah White. She was out on a vacation with Miss Jess. She was found on the floor, shot and bleeding out."My wolf immediately stirs, almost to the surface, his protective instincts surging forward at the mention of Jess, probably in real danger."She's currently being treated at Greymark Medical Center." Leo continues. “But the big issue is that Miss Jess is nowhere to be found. We believe she has either been abducted..." he lowers his voice, "Or killed."Everything inside me stops. For one horrifying second, nothing exists.There is just rage, fear, an
