Novel & Cerita 9-1-1: Lone Star Fall From Grace

JANICE POV: I met Liv at the elevator and we travelled to the main lobby. Getting out I noticed a commotion by the lounge area. Everyone was staring at the tv’s plastered on the walls. I got a glimpse and heard “cia’s failed Cartel bust in Los Grove” I sighed. Liv must have noticed because she asked me, “is everything alright?” “Oh yeah, just the news.” I announced quickly. “Don’t like the Cartel?” She asked, side eyeing me.

I have midnight black hair, and the tips of my hair are silver. When I was 17 my hair slowly started to change the tips from black to silver. I thought it was cool. I told Alpha Jax and the rest of them; they did as much research as possible to see why and they never produced anything. I walked down the hall to the dinner room where everyone eats. I’m so deep in thought that someone bumps into me. “Sorry about that I wasn’t looking where I was going” the next thing I know. I’m slapped across the face and all my training kicks in and grab their hand and bring it around to behind the guys and bring him to his knees and growl “WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE TO PUT YOUR HANDS ON ME!!” “JAZ!!” I look u

Now armed with evidence and a confession. The nurse, trembling with fear and guilt, finally revealed the whereabouts of Stephanie, the mastermind behind the horrifying plan. Jayden wasted no time and swiftly dialed the police, his voice urgent yet composed. "Please, come quietly. We don't want to alert her. Stephanie is waiting at..." Interrupting him, the nurse pleaded, "Please, don't let her hurt anyone else. I'll tell you everything, I promise." Jayden nodded, his eyes filled with determination and a hint of sympathy.

Just as things were beginning to shift between them, an obnoxiously loud ringtone cut through the air. The name of the song? “The One and Only.” It was Claire’s custom ringtone. The moment Adrian heard it, he picked up the call without hesitation. “Adrian, I’m on the rooftop. I saw you with another woman. I’m going crazy with jealousy.” “Don’t do anything stupid. I’m coming now.” Adrian hung up and immediately pulled away from Zoey. He threw on a jacket in a rush. “Zoey, Claire’s on the roof. I’m worried she might do something. I have to go.”

The entire clan looks at me with disgrace, if they even bother to look at me at all. My parents do their best to protect me from them, but every morning we all train together, and I can feel them stare, every day. The words they say behind my back, the looks, the scoffs, I feel it all. I've learned to stay home and keep myself company, as to avoid conflict. The beta's daughter, Nia, has become a dear friend, and at 19, still looking for her mate.

Maybe I should see a doctor. My legs felt weak as I staggered to the door. My right hand reached for the doorknob, but it wouldn't open. Gavin had actually locked it from the outside. Not done with my pain, I felt my stomach churning. I hadn't eaten since morning, and it was already 3 pm. Whether I fainted or fell asleep earlier, I don't really remember. I only remember thin flashes and Gavin's punches; after that, everything was dark. I had to get out. I could die if I stayed here.

Chloe called seeing she already passed out. “Call nine one one!” Damien yelled.

Elders whispered, family members stared, and the room seemed to tilt around me. She really meant to leave me. "Impossible..." My phone slipped from my hand and struck the marble floor. The crack of the screen was sharp and final. "She loves me. She has always loved me. How could she..." Images flashed through my mind. Her cold voice when she told me to go to Angelina. Her body curled in bed from the pain. The way she looked at me in the park as I walked away. I thought she would always wait. She had waited nine times.

"If you're determined to drag this out, then go right ahead and throw your tantrum!" She finally turned back to her room at 3:00 am, finding that Xavier was already tucked in. She then took a quick, quiet shower and slipped into bed. She slept all the way until midday, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she checked her phone, but there was still nothing from him. Xavier, noticing that she was awake, suddenly spoke up from behind her. "Do you remember that time at the tennis courts when Caleb knocked me over? He messed up my knee so badly that I was on crutches for a month.

I dropped to my knees beside him, one hand pressed to the wound, the other fumbling for my phone to call an ambulance. Julian closed his hand over mine and lowered the phone. "Ada. It's okay. I brought one." After Sheila had been pushed out of the music industry, she had had no income. Julian had been worried she would come for me. He had had her under surveillance the whole year. "This is my fault. I brought a whole team and I still missed." I grabbed his wrist. I couldn't get a word out, but he read me anyway. "He's going to be fine. He saved you, which means he saved me. He's getting the best team I can buy."
