Semua Bab The Ex-wife they Claimed: Their Heat, Her Fire: Bab 81 - Bab 88

"This is it," Elara said quietly, glancing over at Selene."Yeah I guess so," Selene replied, exhaling slowly, "Now let's get this over with,"She reached for the journal first, but she didn't even touch it before she heard a bit of irregular noise coming from the floors down below them. Her hands paused mid air, a second from touching the journal while her senses focused more on the noise."There's a Ruckus going on at the bottom floor," Selene said."Huh?" Elara looked at her friend, then looked at the floor, "That's like over fifty floors below us. You can hear all the way down there?""Yeah, but I can't hear what they are saying. My senses aren't sharp enough for that,""Woah!" Elara was still stunned.She could only hear at least what was going on five floors below them. Not fifty!!Alphas are really on a different level."Someone is coming up the elevator," Selene said again, pulling her hands from the Journal, "I think they are heading here,""But...no one is allowed to the CEO

Selene stared at the leather-bound journal. For several seconds, neither she nor Elara touched it.The office had gone so quiet that Selene could hear the faint hum of the air-conditioning above them, then she reached for it.Elara sat across from her, already looking like she wanted to be anywhere else, "Okay." She said, more to herself than anyone. Selene opened the journal, and began scanning through it. The first few pages were useless. They were filled with meeting schedules, names, pack expenditures, and routine correspondence.Nothing that immediately screamed murder.Selene's fingers moved faster, desperate to find something. Page after page, she flipped but she still found nothing. Her brows furrowed, frustration started to settle in."Maybe we grabbed the wrong one." Elara murmured."No," Selene immediately said. "There's no way we went through all that trouble for some boring old man's diary."She kept reading, kept flipping, kept hoping...then finally, her eyes stopped.

Selene arrived home that evening, exhaustion about to take her under.She had just unlocked the house and walked in when she saw the Triplets moving around the house, with boxes stacked upon each other filling almost half of the living room.The chairs and appliances were gone.Hell, the living room looked as empty as it was the first time she'd moved in here."What's going on here?" She asked, her heels clicking against the marble floors.Ajax appeared first, pulling her flush into his arms and kissing her deeply on the lips. She melted into him, wrapping her around his neck as she met his kiss with her own ferocity, only pulling back when they were both breathless, "Welcome back, Gorgeous,"She looked into his eyes, hoping to find that warmth and love he always showered her with. Instead, all she could see was the rot in them spreading.All she could see was the pain that was hidden somewhere in there, that was getting more painful with each day passing by.They had at most eight da

Selene's breath caught.Their father! She knew it!The Alpha who had taken three wild boys out of the woods and turned them into the men they were today. The Alpha who had trained them.Raised them.Taught them how to survive.She looked back at the markings and smiled, "Carter told me all about it. This man who...found you three, I'm so glad he loved you the way you all deserved,""Where is he now?" She asked again, her gaze moving between them.There was another shift in the pressure in the room, and she felt her question might have hit somewhere unintentionally. She slowly approached the three of them, "I...I'm sorry, I didn't—""No, it's fine," Ajax smiled first again."He's gone," Elliot blurted, shrugging, "He...died,"Selene's heart twisted.She didn't know why.She didn't know this man, and she had never met him.Yet something about that answer felt like a door had just slammed somewhere inside her."Oh." She looked away, tears prickling the back of her eyes, "I'm really sorry
