Was it because he thought he recognised me? "Have a great day, ladies." He beamed at both of us as he walked out of the room. "You too." Dorothy replied, and the moment the door was shut, she turned to me furrowing her brows. "How did you get involved with Sebastian Warner?" "Warner? As in Bianca Warner? Is he related to her?" I gaped at her. "How did you not know? He is her elder brother, Sebastian Warner. One of the—" The door swung open, and a short woman, dressed in a white lab coat and holding a file, stepped into the room.

I didn't even know why he disappeared-why he abandoned me, his best friend, everyone who once meant something to him. I gripped the edge of the counter, staring blankly at the bottle of wine in front of me. The only thing keeping me company was the hum of the refrigerator. But I knew one thing for sure: The person I fell in love with all those years ago… was here. Alive. Aaron Warner. The same boy who had once talked of changing the world with wires and screens owned one of the biggest tech companies in the country. The same boy who had once laughed so easily now carried the weight of an empire in his jawline and silence.

It must have cost hundreds of millions of dollars. “Excuse me?” He walked into the locker room and I refused to walk backwards. No man was going to intimidate me—especially one I didn’t know. “You should quit and look for another job. There is no place for a whore like you here.” Suddenly, Derek appeared behind him. It started to make sense. One of them was feeding the other with malicious information about me. The reason was still unknown. “Do I know you?” I asked. He stepped closer, into my personal space to intimidate me but I refused to cower in fear. I may have been broke but I wasn’t a coward.

He chuckles, walks around to his side, and gets in. “So, where to?” “Home, I guess, unless you have somewhere in mind.” “Home is fine.” He starts the car and drives off as my mind replays Vector’s confession over and over. “So, he says you’ve found someone.” “Huh?” “For the position.

He had been my rock, my protector, and my confidant, and I had grown to love him more with each passing day.

His body twitched due to the noise, and his sensitive ears perked up. "What the fuck?!" He rasped, looking above his head where the bullet had pierced. Smoke sizzled from the area, and Trevor narrowed his eyes as he glimpsed the green liquid dripping down the glass wall. "wolfsbane." He let out a grunt. He wouldn't have died if the bullet hit him, but he knew he'd be severely injured because wolfsbane was a bane to his kind of specie. Due to the different genes he had in him; he would have collapsed as soon as he was hit but not dead. Trevor was aware it would take a lot of things to kill him off, but he didn't know what yet.

I scowled at her head, wishing I'd said more hurtful things. The car drove past our mansion but one window in particular caught my interest. The window that had caused everything! The window that had brought the death of Oakfalls most loved man. CEO of the largest clothing line and one of the top five in New York.

"Please don't be true, don't be true." I whispered, my voice cracking as I went on the net and just like mum said, it was making headlines. "DON LUCIANO, FEARED MAFIA DON AND BUSINESS MOGUL REMARRIES AFTER YEARS." Attached to the news of a picture of a girl in her twenties or thirties in a wedding dress and he, i

He was waiting for Eddie to challenge him on it. "I don't doubt that. It's just the first time I'm seeing her. How do I know we can trust her?" I had to admit, Eddie had a point there. Gunnar sighed, "This is Danny's sister," he spared me a glance before a sinful smirk tugged the corner of his lip upward, "and Theo Harper's daughter." I could tell he was enjoying this a little too much. This was a better form of revenge for him than forcing me to work at his architectural firm.
