CHAPTER 131: DEBBIE TOO?LIANA'S POV. I was done from the underground training facility after my sparring session with Trevor. He also didn't do anything else after that. We both left the facility and headed to the main house. We weren't as sweaty as earlier since we took a little while to talk.We both said nothing to the other while we headed there. My mind was fixed on one thing, and one thing only: My confrontation with Roderick. I was hell-bent on meeting him face to face, unperturbed by the prospect of danger when I got there. As we were about to walk into the house, I caught sight of Debbie. I saw her turning at the corner of the building. I didn't know where she was headed, though. But immediately, a thought hit me."Please, excuse me," I requested of Trevor."Uh, sure," he shrugged in agreement. His brow was slightly furrowed in confusion, though. He must have wondered what I was going over there to do. Turning the corner as well, I found Debbie headed toward a very beaut

CHAPTER 133: NO TURNING BACK.LIANA'S POV. The drive to the Alpha's villa was quiet. I didn't utter a word to Annie, and we had driven for about fifteen minutes. "Having second thoughts about going there?" Annie asked. But I kept quiet, unable to provide an answer."You know, there's nothing wrong if you're feeling like that, though. You can still turn back," Annie counselled."Despite how determined I was to go confront Roderick Vanderholt about the truth, for some reason, whenever I picture myself standing before him, I find my resolve wavering. I get weak.""And it is absolutely okay to feel that way. " We can still head back," Annie said."It is not like I dread going there. Well, that's not entirely true, anyway. And that is because where I am returning to has held some level of sentiment to me — That was home to me," I responded, beginning with this. "I grew up there. The bulk of my memories from childhood were made there. And despite how badly I was treated, that place was s

CHAPTER 135: IN THE WOLVES' DEN (2).LIANA'S POV. The Alpha Supreme looked hatefully at me. It wasn't the first time I had gotten that sort of glare from him. But it was different this time. He was channeling his frustration toward me."Whatever business you have with Trevor is none of my concern. If he did anything to you, you'd better go confront him, because I had no hand in it," I said to him. Roderick looked at me for a bit. Then he chuckled softly, wickedly. "You've grown bold, Liana. No more cowering at the sight of me, huh?" I didn't respond to what he said. I just stared at him. "I see that hanging around that— the Alpha Slayer, betrayer of his own- has given you a false sense of boldness. But you see, when I'm done with him, rest assured your forgiveness won't come cheap; that's if you'll even be forgiven for your treachery." I found myself chuckling softly at that moment. Roderick furrowed his brow as he looked at me. There was a mix of anger and confusion in his expr

CHAPTER 137: FRIENDS IN NEEDFUL PLACES. TREVOR'S POV. "Alright, tell all of them to head to the docks and wait for me. I'll be heading out in twenty minutes. I'll meet them there," I instructed Apollo. "Okay, Boss. I'll do that," Apollo replied excitedly, then I ended the call. I turned and walked back to where the group stood. "You seem happy," Liana noticed. "Well, yes. I am," I replied. I didn't know that my smile was visible. "Is it about what has got Roderick pissed?" Liana asked further. "It is," I nodded. Liana nodded as well. "I'm afraid I'll be heading out soon. There's something important I need to take care of." "Oh! Uh, okay," Liana nodded. She seemed disappointed. "But why don't we talk in my study, before I head out?" I said to her. "Of course," she cracked a mild smile and followed me upstairs to the study. Boraz followed us, but he remained outside at the door while we headed in. "So, what's up? I noticed that you refrained from sharing cer

CHAPTER 139: OUT WITH THE OLD AND IN WITH THE NEW.TREVOR'S POV.Folks from the house ran on foot to where we were. The guys from the other vehicles got the fire extinguishers from both cars to try to put out the fire. I let them attempt to put out the fire initially, to prevent the surrounding shrubs and plantation from catching the flames of the inferno. But after having exhausted the canisters, we all stood and watched the car burn. Among those who rushed from the house were Liana, Annie, and Aunty Debbie. They looked terrified by the time they got there, especially Liana. "Where is he? Where is Trevor?" Liana looked around frantically. Aunty Debbie froze, holding her hand up to her chest. You could see the fear in her eyes as well."Over here!" Boraz waved, notifying them. Seeing us, they rushed over. I wasn't expecting this, but Liana fell into my chest, embracing me. She sobbed lightly. "I'm fine, Liana. Rest easy now," I said, tapping her ger gently on her back."I was afra
