Catherine Pinkerton Novels & Stories

“Yes you can “, Rose waved her hand in dismissal, staring at the earrings one last time before looking up at Catherine. “You really like the earring don't you?” She couldn't stop herself from asking. “Ah yes, someone special gave it to me”, Catherine blushed. “Kate aka Taylor gave it to her”. Rose had thought about confronting Catherine about the CCTV footage but decided against it. At the end there was nothing wrong in the footage to make anyone believe Catherine had done something to the earring. ***** Kate sat opposite Gracie, a gloomy look on her face, her gaze focused on the menu in her hand, her mind far from what she'll order.

"I have warned you to stop smoking in my house." Uncle Pete was angry seeing how she stubbed the cigarette on his console table, messing the glass top.

I press my hand there briefly, just long enough to steady myself. Her image lingers in my mind. Red cheeks. Shaky breath. Angry eyes. Pink outfit. My pink outfit. I pull out my phone. The private investigator’s earlier call flashes through my thoughts. The bastard who shot me better hope I never find him. Because fake dating or not… Catherine Hopkins is officially a distraction. And the worst part? I don’t want it to stop.

Peter said you're on a business trip to the red moon pack. Tomorrow, I happen to have an interview event in the red moon pack as well. I've already passed the toll booth.

Jaclyn·Dills lowered his head to check the time, 8:30 PM, and hesitated slightly before saying, "Alright, where are you going? I'll come over directly."

"I want you to find out if the woman we just saw was Kendall Carter. And if it was, I need to know if she’s pregnant." Her PA nodded, her fingers already flying across the tablet to make notes.

She would get to the bottom of this. One way or another, she would know the truth.

He kept pacing, growling, pushing against my control. “She’s ours,” he kept saying. “We need to claim her.” “Shut it,” I growled back mentally. “She’s just a girl who's here to perform her duties.” But even I was beginning to feel something tug at my heart. A few minutes later, Melvin returned and leaned in close. “Her name’s Catherine Blackwood,” he whispered. “She works for the event management company that handled the ball. Lives with her mother on the east side of the city. She’s a wolf, but not registered with any pack.”

Phillip had come in five minutes ago to touch base before the Townsends arrived. Catherine’s desk top was clear glass. The top was held up by gray steel legs. Her large white leather chair had a large soft back. The carpet was a faded pink. The walls were painted off-white. Pictures by various artist donned the walls.

Catherine’s complaint dismissed. Kael Penking cleared. Again. The news cycle moved on. Found new scandals. New drama.

“Your safety is far more important than anything else. You don’t need to worry about work. Liam will help you, and I trust him.” Charlotte sighed in resignation, unable to argue when Catherine had spoken.
