{ Nicholas's POV }I was this close. Just this close to placing my hand on her shoulder and squeezing it tight, no. Pulling her into a warm hug to dissolve all her worries for the meantime. Her face was red with white hot rage, her jaw clenched so tight I was certain her teeth were grinding hard on each other, her fangs minutes away from popping out. My hand was already out but I stopped myself. A tired sigh left my lips. She'd probably bite them off. Forget the stupid show I put up in the morning, I am losing my damn mind. Each second that passes watching her treat me like some pain-in-the-neck acquaintance sucks more than hell. It's so fucking hard. Two could play?—My ass, but I'm not done. I'd happily feed her the benefit of the fucking doubt until I'm done with that private ally of hers.Alisha Greyson. Pretty interesting wolf from what I've dug up. Tonight's gonna be so much fun. I know Ambrose said not to hurt her but letting her taste a bit of my suffering…that wouldn't hur

{ Nicholas’s POV }~Two hours ago~The drive to Caple Town took exactly one hour. Sixty whole minutes of trees fading into buildings as I crossed out of Roseville and silence, and every one of those quiet seconds belonged to her—Elena.The way she looked at me now; cold and controlled like I was something she needed distance from. Like the man who had touched her, kissed her, felt her come apart under his hands was already becoming a stranger. My fingers flexed on the steering wheel. These last two days have been the worst in my entire life. Kyle had been on edge the fucking two days!I missed the heat of her skin. The soft sounds she made when my mouth found her throat. The feel of her lips on mine. The way her body leaned into me even when her pride tried to fight it. I was losing her by inches, and the worst part was that someone had helped it happen.Alisha Greyson.Once I dragged the truth out of her, that wall between Elena and me would crack and this madness would end. Someone

{ Elena's POV }The next six days were a whirlwind of events, both good and not so good ones. Nicholas had driven me back home that evening after breaking the kiss. He offered to take me to my room but I had to refuse no matter how tempting it was. The pack was at high vigilance that day, so I couldn't risk him getting caught so I gave a deep kiss as an apology. Back home, it turns out that Officer Garrett, who's the head security officer of our archives, had been the one who gave Melissa access to the stone. In fact, they had it all planned out so smoothly and all for just twenty thousand dollars! Alpha Cade was beyond pissed. It was totally insane. A pack member is supposed to be loyal and protect the pack's secret with their life. Ours betrayed us for just a few thousand dollars. He and Alvin are currently being dealt with in the dungeon after which they will be banished when they spit out everything damn thing they know so we can get clues on how to retrieve the Umbral.

{ Elena’s POV }“You should get going.”Nicholas sat on my sofa in only his boxers, a book open in his hands like he was actually reading it.“Nope.” His voice sounded bored, but his eyes stayed glued on the page. “I’ll be waiting right here until you finish with Daddy.”I pulled my sleeveless beige crop top over my head and gave him a warning smile. “No, darling. I’m not doing shit with you today again.”He shut the book with a sharp snap, dropped it on the sofa, and gave me a flat look. “It’s about work. Get your mind out of the gutter.”I rolled my eyes and did the zipper of my trousers. “Oh whatever. Just hide. Like—not hide. Just stay quiet so you don’t get caught.”I didn’t wait for his answer. I stepped out, shut the door behind me, and started down the stairs with my pulse already climbing high, high up. Dad ignored me, like he acted like I wasn't even present in this mansion these last few days, now he wants to talk. Wow. Great.And let's hope it goes well. Gosh! Our relation
