MARKED BY THE ALPHAS HEAT のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Liora The surface of the lake called to me and I answered. There was no one around to watch me dive so I decided to do something to clear my mind. I decided that I wasn't going to wet my clothes so I walked down the the surface, peeled my clothes off my body until all I was left with were my red brassiere and panties. Then I walked back up the outcropping of rock and took some deep breaths. I had done something like it once with Lissa when I was much younger. Before the rogue wolves started to plunder. Lissa was my childhood friend. We made sure we pushed ourselves to a safe distance so we landed right in the water. So I knew what I had to do to make my dive work. After my breathing exercises, I measured the distance I would have to push myself. When I was sure, I backed up some distance, ran with my hands pumping at my sides, then pushed myself farther than I would have liked, felt the air rush around me, and made a dive for the surface of the water, hands first. The c

KADE I carried Liora back to the house in my arms. She was already spent and there was no way she could walk. By the time I placed her in my bed, where she truly belonged, she had already dozed off in my arms. I went downstairs and sat at the kitchen counter for some minutes, thinking the next step I would take to protect Liora and secure my company. I was at a disadvantage because I was in Japan and I only had Caine as my contact. Back in the States, I knew who to talk to. I could get the board to convene and bring them up to speed with my findings. But I would leave out the part where Michelle had tried to shoot me in the face. That wouldn't be good for business. And if they all knew what she was capable of, it could make them jittery. Cold feet, as they would say. I felt it was too early to call Caine as he would be at this place of meeting, wherever that was. So I decided to call Jack on Zoom. The man always felt obliged to answer all my calls as he was the

CAINE The meeting was held in a whorehouse owned by someone who belonged to the Yakuza. His name was Haruki Yamadera. I had never met the owner before but I knew the person who worked for him. A right hand man. I called him Zai. I walked in and went to the table designated for our meeting. Soon, Zai joined me in the opposite seat. He had dark hair, rings on both ears, and tattoos all over his face. He held a pack of cards which he always shuffled. Anyone who watched us would think we were about playing cards. But those card were actually his signature, and weapon. He once told me he had made them into blades, talking about their sharp edges I think. And with what I had heard about the Yakuza tribe, I could tell he wasn't kidding at all. "Tell me something, Caine. How come your contact wants to meet with you here?" he asked and pushed three cards in my direction. I picked them up. Two Kings and 9 Ace of Spades. "Well, I actually chose this place you know.""Oh.

KADE The weekend passed like a flash. We enjoyed ourselves, but not to the fullest. Because I knew there were other places that we could have more of what we needed. I took her out but the Japanese country just didn't meet up to her cuisine expectations. I didn't blame her at all. Even I had trouble eating Asian cooked food. There were exotic sea animals we saw on butcher stands. Some of them had a myriad of colors, but it didn't matter to those holding the chopping axe. They tumbled pieces of meat into a boiling pot and added fresh leaves.It was night time and we didn't have anything planned out for later so we stayed out and watched how they prepared a couple of meals. Then we took walks, went into antique stores because Liora wanted to find something for her maid, Nina. For Nina.I remembered that I had fucked Nina once but I had no idea if she would tell Liora about it. But if she loved her tongue, then she would keep it a secret. After all, it had been some time ag

KADE Monday arrived and I realized I didn't want to go back to my estate. Whether it was in LA where my company was situated or in Bloodfang where Liora would have to make a new home with Nina. I hadn't even prepared myself or Liora for any flight back. But I knew that moment would have to come sooner or later. After all, I was Alpha of the pack. My pack and the elders involved needed me. They needed my presence. And soon, I would soon start getting summons. Yep, there was that thing. But there had been a discussion with Jack Bellom about a meeting of the board of directors and if everyone would attend, I didn't see it fair that I stayed back in Japan. What the hell was I doing in the country anyway? Apart from fucking Liora how I wanted. But things would have to get serious from then on.Liora was still asleep. I kissed her neck then left the bed to go make a call. First person I called was Jack. He picked up immediately. "You would have called me via video call," h
