Semua Bab Howl of Regrets: Bab 31 - Bab 40

I've unlocked the rental Jeep with its smart key before reaching it. I'm reaching for the door handle, and everything's going my way until a strong hand, like the one from the hall, reaches for a mop of my hair and knots it in a firm grip. A sharp, burning sting explodes across my scalp, and I groan in pain and in fear, hitting my purse behind me, but it only hits the air.“You should have listened when I asked nicely,” he gritted the words out and pulled me backwards, spinning me until my back hit the jeep. “Bitch!”The wolf quickly tilts his head toward the direction from which a speeding and heavy step is coming. Suddenly, his eyes widen, his feet recoil, causing Lester to punch the air. In a split second, Lester redirects the punch before the wolf can retaliate, giving him a blow to the jaw. The wolf groans, and his head tips back from the force; the masquerade mask falls off. With one look I know it's one of Lester's half-brothers.I'm panting with my mouth agape and my face wet

Lester's P O VI blankly stare at Father ranting about last night's dreadful incident, his voice indistinct, my mind immersed with the amazingness of last night with Hill. After we made out in the shower, we had another one in the bathroom when she was putting her dress on. And another one…until our legs gave out, our energy jaded. I was ready for another round but was scared she would pass out due to stress.One of my hands would have been on my shaft right now if it weren't for Father's present. Just the thought of the remarkable sex with my mate is making me hard in my pants. The thoughts about last night keep giving me the feeling I won't be keeping my word to Hill. Goddess, I already—“Lest!” Father calls furiously, standing in front of me, his eyes narrow, examining me. “Lester, are you seeing that she-wolf?” Dammit, I chuckle softly, leaning into the couch and giving him an unbelievable look even though his intuition is right. When I woke up from a vegetative state nine years a

Lester's P O VI park in Anders' school compound, but this time it is different. Anders is here with me, in the passenger seat. After he left enraged that night, I didn't stop reaching out to him, explaining how Hill makes me feel: bold, angry, happy, and sad—all the feelings I've never felt in my entire years of existence. I let him know I wouldn't be coming anywhere near his porch again since we don't agree on anything.Surprisingly, he called for a favor, telling me he needed a ride to his children's school because his Jeep broke down. I was over the moon when I arrived at his workplace earlier than the time frame I was given. Though we didn't say much, it felt great driving with an old friend.He steps out of the jeep and rounds it when he asks, “Aren't you coming?”My heart flutters at his request as I step out of the driver's seat. This is a sign there's still a chance to have my best friend back.The principal is telling Anders that his children's names are listed in a scholars

Hillary's P O VA call comes to the telephone in my office, and I take it without looking away from the computer screen. I bend my head to my shoulder, holding the telephone in between as I continue to strike my finger pads against the computer keys.“Come to my office,” Lindsay says over the phone.“Is it urgent?” I ask slowly, as I struggle to share my attention between her and what I'm doing. “Can I take ten…please?”“N…sure, you can,” she stutters, and my fingers reduce their strokes, my brows knit as I wonder the reasons her words are breaking for the first time. “T…take your time.” She ends the call, and I sigh in relief and give my full attention to the report I'm preparing.Exactly ten minutes later, I leave for Lindsay's office.When I enter and see the wolf-shifter sitting across from Lindsay, my heart falls into my stomach. I try to think why he decided to go to Lindsay instead of coming to me. I thought we'd gone past this stage.A smile lights up his face as he tilts his

Lester's P O VFor some minutes I've been leaning against the wall staring out the window, gazing at Hillary's house. Her house is forty feet across from mine. I wasn't being honest when I met her at her place when Ava tried to get to her mansion. That day I went to tell her we were neighbors but ended up in a scene where she was on the verge of losing her mansion. Instead of causing more scenes, I lied. I was going to buy a different mansion in a different neighborhood but forgot. I only remembered when Verona parked in with the kids.“What are you looking at?” Clifton asks in his little voice. “You have been looking out the window for a while now.”I chuckle and give the house a long stare before walking back to the bed to meet my son. I give him a long peck on the cheek, and he giggles, touching the spot. “Daddy is looking at something that makes him happy.”“Can I see?” He quickly sits up, his voice coated with excitement. “I want to be happy, too.”“Do you understand chemistry?”
