Willow“I was gone less than five minutes,” Vincent grumbles on the way back home. “How the hell did you girls manage to get into such a huge fight?”“It was Neesha.” I mutter, eyes glued to my phone screen. Again, I try Violet’s cell. After a few rings, she finally picks. “Violet. Oh thank gods. I’ve been trying to reach you for a while now. Where are you? Tell me where you are and Vincent and I will come get you.”“Willow,” Violet chuckles. “Slow down, will you?”“Sorry.” I try to laugh but it comes out as a weak, strangled sound. “Are you still at the security office?”“No. I left a while ago. Currently taking a walk around campus to clear my head.”“This is all my fault. Because of me, you got into trouble with campus security.”“Not really. Neesha and I only have to pay a fine. That’s all.”“But it could have been worse. You could have gotten expelled.” I expel a shaky breath. “I’m really sorry. If I had done a better job of defending myself against Neesha, you wouldn’t have felt

WillowHelen isn’t bluffing. She spends the next couple of hours getting in the way of Laura’s attempts to bond with Cary.And as host, Laura already doesn’t have a lot of free time to loiter and chat. She has to give a lot of speeches. She hosts the fundraising aspect of the event. At least that’s successful. Everyone gives generously. Even Cary makes a huge donation.“Can you stop?” I whisper in my aunt’s ear, watching as she downs another glass of champagne. For a while now, she’s been typing furiously on her phone. “Do I even wanna know what you’re planning now?”“Darling,” Helen looks up from her phone. “I have no idea what you’re accusing me of.”“You know exactly what you’re being accused of.” I smile knowingly. “Would it really be so bad for them to get together?”I look to where Laura finally has Cary alone. They are both by the bar, chatting over drinks. The event is almost over. We’ll be leaving soon.“It’s a terrible idea,” Helen growls, glaring at the bar. “Don’t worry

Aiden“Theo had lunch with you and Spencer? He asked for his trustfund to be released early?”Mother makes a displeased sound. I don’t need to see her face to know that she’s scowling. “You should have seen him, buttering Spencer up with his fake act. I wonder why Spencer can’t see it.”“I know he’s entitled to his trustfund. It’s his money, after all. But why ask for it now?”“He’s planning something. Listen to me son, you have to be careful. I already tried to get Spencer to change his mind about you boys working together but he didn’t agree to it. He’s stubborn and delusional and I fear it’s going to be our eventual ruin.”“Don’t worry mother. I won’t let it come to that. I’ve got my eyes on Theo.”***“Was that your mother?” Darla joins me at my desk. We’re both at my office, working overtime.It’s the weekend and I should be making plans to go on a romantic dinner date with my girlfriend but here I am, buried in paperwork. I’m pretty much a glorified intern at this point and I h

Willow“You did what?” I think I heard that wrong. “You’re joking.”“You heard right.” Helen expels a heavy breath. “I was the one who called in a favour to have Laura arrested. But before you argue, darling, you should know that I wasn’t just trying to frame her. The money laundering charge is indeed true. As for the other one, I had nothing to do with that. My contact must have gotten a hold of some extra dirt on her.”“Oh my goodness.” I step back, putting some distance between us. “Do you have any idea what you’ve done? My dad. He had to involve himself in this. He paid a million dollars just to get her out on bail.”“About that… look, I didn’t think Cary was going to get involved, okay? I had hoped that once he saw her get arrested, he would feel disgusted and not want to get himself tangled up in her business.”“He saw me get involved and chose to help.” I shut my eyes, feeling all kinds of things. “This is fucked up, Helen. Even though the laundering charges are true, you chose

WillowI’m not gonna lie. After the collision, I was expecting gunshots to follow. It wouldn’t be the first time that someone had followed me and tried to harm me.“Hey Willow. Are you okay?” Violet reaches for me. Her eyes are scanning my body for injuries. Possible bullet holes.“I’m fine,” I reassure her, doing the same; checking her for injuries.We’re both fine. The rear end of my car is not though.Violet is the first one out of the car. She goes over to the other car and starts yelling loud enough for everyone to hear. “Hey. What the hell kind of driving is that? Do you have any fucking idea whose car you just thrashed?”“Violet,” I grab her shoulders, pulling her back. The other car is a rolls Royce. The werewolf standing in front of us seems to be the driver.Why isn’t he apologizing though?“Look at you just standing there.” Violet hisses. “Perhaps we should report this to the lycan authorities, Willow. Let’s see how he likes it when he has to spend a whole night in the dun
