041: DIRTY TRICKS

Valerie“With all due respect, Alpha, there’s no reason for you to keep me tied up like this. I only followed the rules of the land. We have treated spies a lot worse than I did in the past. Why is it a problem when I treat Valerie this way?”Seraphina has been claiming to be right all day. According to her, she handled the situation according to Ashville’s laws. Lady Juliet is in a bind. As for Kai, it’s hard to tell what he’s thinking. Seraphina glances down at the chains on her hand, her lips curved up in a smirk. “You know you have no casse against me, Kai. why don’t you let me go?”I can’t help the bitter laugh that leaves my lips. “Seraphina, you accused me wrongly. You can’t frame me to be a spy without evidence.”“You were in a building which is out of bounds to everyone but the Alpha and section leaders. Even though I am a distinguished warrior of this pack, my access there is limited. Not everyone knows the password of that building. How did you get it?”“It was open.”“Di

042: TIME IS RUNNING OUT

Valerie“Seraphina, you’re suspended from duties till I say otherwise,” Kai instructs. “You’re to receive fifty lashes and be locked up for three days, with no food or water. I’m sure you know why you deserve such punishment.”Seraphina’s eyes widen in horror. She forces a chuckle, looking around, dazed. “Kai, that’s too harsh. You heard Jasper. I did it because he wanted me to. What exactly is my crime here?”“I do not believe a word Jaser says.” Kai crouches to her level, his voice calm. “I know my brother. He said all that he did to get you out of trouble, but I know he isn't such a schemer. I gave you a chance to say the truth, but you overlooked it. For that, you have to pay.”“This is too much,” she cries out. “Fifty lashes is a lot.”“You’re a warrior.” the words are out before I can stop them. “You can handle that much.”Kai snaps a finger. With that, three hefty guards advance and pull Seraphina away. I block out her screams and walk away, desperate to get out of there. It h

043: BASTARD

Kai“You never listened to me when I suggested joining the council, what changed all of sudden?” Peyton asks, a teasing undertone in his voice. “You were so adamant about leaving Ashville on its own that I gave up trying to convince you.”“No man is an island,” I tell him. “I deduced that quite later than you wanted.”“Alpha Kai, I don't think that’s the only reason.” He straightens, a knowing smile lining his face. “I heard a rumor. Valerie won’t be allowed to stay in Ashville if you’re not a member of the council. I’d like to believe that’s your driving factor for giving in.”It probably is, but it doesn’t mean I didn't weigh the pros and cons of my decision. Peyton has been right all along. Being on the council has a lot of advantages.It’s the day I officially become a member. Behind the wheel, Peyton stops the car in the parking lot of the hall and unfastens his seatbelt. “Should I wait here till you’re done, or you’ll like to drive with your Luna?”Resisting the urge to roll

044: TASKS

ValerieMy head is a mess. I am overwhelmed trying to think of the reason Sebastian said all those things about me. I may have been apart from him for years, but I'd like to believe I know him well. He’s not the type to spread lies. He could be spineless and ruthless a t times, but he’d never ruin my reputation just for the fun of it.Someone cooked up those stories about me. If Sebastian believes it, then a lot of evidence must have been shown to him. One person comes to mind. Celeste Blackthorne.She’s a schemer. I know all her lies, including the fact that she never had a shattered bond to begin with. I wasn’t a reputable doctor in Bloodcrest for nothing. I could tell that beneath that weak front she put up, there were a lot of lies buried. But I didn't expose her. How could I? Everyone in the pack was on her side. The outcome wouldn’t have changed even if I had let them know that she was pretending.But Celeste couldn’t have pulled such a big scam off on her own. Someone bigger a

045: AWE AND LUST

Valerie“I haven’t done this in a long time, but I see I still have a flair for it. You look gorgeous, Valerie.”At Lady Juliet’s words, I stare at my reflection in the mirror, a wide smile lining my face. She’s straight. I look breathtaking, partly thanks to her makeover skills, and partly thanks to me. My hair is packed into a messy bun, locks framing the sides of my face. She had given me a full face beat, thick brows, dark smoky eyes, bold red lips. Coupled with the dress I'm in, a black velvet dress that clings to me like second skin with a slit riding high up my thigh, I look like a femme fatale.“Where did you learn how to do this?” I ask her, baffled. “It’s so lovely.”“I was a makeup artist in my prime. The best in town actually. Since I don't have a daughter to hone my skills with, you may as well be one.”I chuckle, giving myself one last look in the mirror. Lady juliett places a pair of strappy heels in front of me, and a diamond studded clutch beside it. “This should be

046: KEEP YOUR DISTANCE FROM THE DOCTOR

Valerie.He stretches a hand out, checking me out and making no effort to hide it. Celeste is fuming beside him. I try to ignore the way she sends a glare my way to mark her territory. If she reacted so fast, then this isn’t the first time it’s happening. How many times has she been on the verge of losing the man she wanted me killed for?Slowly, i raise my hand and take Sebasstian’s my eyes narrowed. “A proper apology,” I stress. My skin crawls at the contact. I hate that he’s so close to me, that he's touching me and I'm letting him. But Celeste is going bonkers, so it pays off.“A proper apology. I will make it up to you.”“Nothing can be traded for my son’s life, Mr Fairmont."“I understand.” he turns to scan the hall with curiosity. “Where is this son? I haven’t seen him at all. Did you bring him here today?”My heart bat skyrockets. I had done a really good job of hiding Lucien from him till now. I have trust in Mireya's disguise tactics, but it still can’t calm my fears.Kai di

047: WHORE

ValerieWith that, Sebastian smirks, his shoulders rising and falling in a careless shrug. “What if I do? She’s the type of woman any man would want. Beautiful, talented, charismatic. Do you think you're the only one that loves to have a woman like her by your side?”“He doesn’t mean that, Alpha kai,” Celeste intervenes quickly. “My husband likes to test how daring he can get sometimes. Don’t take it to heart.”Her words obviously do not pacify Kai. He takes a step closer to Sebastian, his eyes narrowed into thin lines. “I don’t condone people coveting what’s mine, pretty boy. Watch your words before I gouge your eyes out.”Okay, that’s enough. If I don't do something, things will spiral out of control. I wrap my fingers around Kai’s bulging bicep and pull him away. “You can't let Sebastian get under your skin like that. He wants to ruin this party for you.”Kai rakes a hand through his hair, shooting Sebastina one last murderous glare. Then he turns to me, his eyes darkening. I don’t

048: A HOMEWRECKER

Valerie.Celeste leans against the door, folding her arms in front of her, a defiant glint in her eyes. Did she track me down just to start a fight? I should have known that she wouldn’t let everything that happened out there go on just like that. She’d try to have her revenge.“You heard me right,” she huffs. “You are nothing but a whore. Why would you dress like that to a party that wasn’t even thrown in your home if you aren’t?”I trail my eyes down her dress. A red sequin bodycon that hangs loosely on her skin, but still fits her well. It’s skimpy, the hem brushing her butt cheeks. A dry chuckle escapes me.“There’s nothing wrong with my dress. If you're mad because your husband couldn’t take his eyes off me, that’s on him. It’s quite disappointing that you, a married woman, will have your whole body on display and get mad because you didn’t attract the attention you want while I, who didn’t even have to do too much, got noticed by everyone.”She rolls her eyes, disgust clouding

049: SOMETHING IN THE AIR

KaiIt took all the restraint I had to not take Valerie right here in this hall. I had to fight against my needs to pin her against the wall and slide into her. She was well ready for me, but I owe her respect. “Freshen up, mate,” I mutter beneath my breath. “I need you well refreshed for later.”I slip my hand into my pocket in a bid to loosen the tightness around my groin. Canine is a sex starved wolf. I owe it to him to keep him calm, but I didn't expect that he’d lose so much control.‘Take accountability for your actions’, a voice rings in my ears. Of course, Canine. I admit I'm just as starved as you.“Alpha Kai,” a male voice calls beside me. It’s none other than Balze, the alpha who had doggedly defended Valerie in front of everyone in the council. He has a glass in his hand, and a cheerful smile on his face. “It’s nice to meet you.”I narrow my eyes at him. What’s this about? I could sense a bit of sincerity from him earlier, but people are always two faced.I raise my brow

050: VIVIENNE

Valerie“See?” Celeste sneers behind me. “See what I told you. It hasn’t even been up to five minutes, but you already saw for yourself.”My hands clench into tight fists beside me. If I wasn't seeing what was happening with my own eyes, I'd have doubted that Kai would do this. But I am. The kiss deepens, with him leading it. Celeste comes up beside me, her lips moving upwards in a mocking smile.“That’s Vivienne Hart, his fiancee. I bet he didn’t tell you that he was engaged.”“He isn’t.” the words are out off my mouth before i can stop it. I shouldn’t be defending him. I just caught him reedhanded, but it’s hard to believ that Kai has turned out to be just like sebastian. I thought he was different. Besides, lady julieit would have mentioned it to me if he had a ffiancee. Someone would have. The triplets, seraphina, his father? Anyone of them.The woman pulls away from him, and that’s when I see her clearly. She’s dressed identical to me. Her hair is styled in the same way as mine.
