AidenShe’s so pretty, it hurts.And the way she’s acting with me today is nothing short of a miracle. She’s holding on to my arm, doesn’t seem like she’s letting go anytime soon. I was surprised when she’d asked for us to go gift shopping together. She must have decided to forgive Violet for the things she did. Deep down, I suspected she would. Now that Rowan has been caught and imprisoned, the only way to go is forward.“Hmmm… what do you think of this one?” I point to a pair of white knee-high leather boots. “Violet likes to dress extra girly. I bet she’d love those.”“Yes.” Willow beams, pressing fully against my side. “I was right to ask you to come along. You really do have an eye for the nicer things.” I can feel her boobs pressing against my sleeve. Her cleavage snuggles around my muscles. Does she realize that she’s doing that? She has to. There’s no way any of this is innocent.Willow asks the attendant to get the leather boots off the shelf. “We still need to find another

WillowAnother crazy attack.When will it end? Is it ever going to be over?It’s been barely a week and yet, my life has been threatened twice, only this time, it had been more subtle.The stunt with the water was creative, I’ll give them that. What’s next? Wolfsbane in my latte? A gunshot to my head?I get up. I’ve been pretending to be asleep but I can’t take it anymore. Aiden appears in front of me. He sits by my bedside. I see he’s shed his jacket, now wearing just a plain black tee.His hair looks more mussed than usual. I must look worse. My hair probably looks like a rat’s nest right now. Aiden doesn’t seem to care about all that though.“Twinkles.” He smiles brightly, but I know it’s only for my benefit. “How are you feeling? Better?”“Not really,” I mumble, eyes facing down. “It was supposed to be a nice little outing. Unfortunately, this happened. In the blink of an eye, everything turned out for the worse.”“Hey. There’s no way you could have predicted any of that.” Aiden

AidenTheo looks fucked up. It’s there in the eyes. He slides into the seat across from mine, pulling Lauren into the other vacant seat.“Hey jackass.” I beam, unfazed by the close proximity of those furious eyes. “Whatever it is you came here to do, can we not do it in front of my girlfriend? Save the theatrics for another day.”“Theatrics.” He clenches his fists on the table. Then, he turns to Willow. “Did your boyfriend tell you what he did to me?” Wow. What a switch of tactics. Thrusting Willow into the middle; in the hopes of making her uncomfortable. “He could have killed me. He wants to be father’s successor so bad, he’s willing to do anything.”“Come on Theo.” I shoot him a smug smile, hellbent on making him even more furious. “You and I both know that’s not why I kicked your ass.”“Theo,” Willow sighs. She grips my arm on the table. “Yes. I’m aware of what Aiden did. I’m also aware of your dealings with Rowan.”“What dealings?”“Really? You’re going to sit there and pretend t

WillowWhy are they fighting? I’ve been gone for five minutes?Theo must have started this wolf fight. It’s so horrifying to watch the glass shatter. Even more so when Theo’s wolf sends Aiden’s flying out the open space.A loud thud follows.What was once a calculative networking event is now in utter chaos. Everyone is gathered in front of the broken window, watching the fight. I step forward, trying to get past the sea of bodies but Vincent stops me.“No,” he grabs my arm. “It’s too dangerous.”“Aiden,” my eyes widen in panic. “What if Theo hurts him?”“He won’t.” Vincent steps closer, shielding me with his much bigger frame. I look behind me. Lauren is nowhere in sight. She must have left already.“We have to help him,” I insist. “Vincent. We have to do something. There’s no telling what Theo might do to him down there.”As if the moon goddess herself wishes to torture me, I hear a loud crack, it’s followed by a loud roar. One of them has been hurt badly. This time, I yank my arm o

Willow“Would you like to spend the whole of tomorrow with me?” Aiden’s voice is warm but his face is serious. “I have the trial business to take care of in two days. Tomorrow, I want to forget about everything. Want to think about nothing else but you.”“I have my internship,” I tell him, trying to lessen the blow of my rejection. “I already took most of today off. If I don’t show up tomorrow, my team mates are going to think I’m not serious. They’ll think I’m merely playing the nepo card.”“How about you call in sick?” he’s still insisting. He must really need this. Aiden hardly ever forces me to do what I don’t want to do. “Please, twinkles. Spend tomorrow with me. I need you—” He stops, biting on his tongue. “Okay,” I say, giving in. “I’ll send a message to my boss first thing in the morning. Then, we can spend the day together.”“Thank you.” He smiles, exhaling in relief. “I feel loads better.”“Okay. Now, are you ready to tell me what that fight with Theo was all about?”“Oh. T
