Game Over: No Second Chances Novels & Stories

I drift off to sleep on the plane on the way back to Texas, only to awaken after having a very vivid dream or maybe I should say fantasy of Drake. I pour myself a drink and try to relax. I decided to change clothes and freshen up, just in case Drake met me at the airfield. Silly how I have to remind myself this is all just a game. I catch myself wanting him, wanting to please him, wanting to give myself to him. I have to remember that I want to hurt him, make him regret how he treated me. Lila, my wolf also reacts to Drake so strongly I constantly have to reign in. I continue to sip the burning alcohol that I am drinking, my excitement continues to grow at the thought of seeing Drake.

At that moment fear squeezed the air from my lungs, I couldn’t breath, I was at the grocery shop but everything seemed to freeze.

Time for the meeting Seth and I are as prepared as we can be. There are no fancy presentation slides or numbers to dazzle them with. We come to them to plead the case, not only for our business but for our town as well. The survival of Chance depended on it. The town needed the revenue from the businesses that have already signed leases on the building. If this project failed, then all of the money received will have to be refunded. The jobs that were sorely needed will disappear. The board members need to look past the things that have happened since the start of this project. Some days I feel like we are cursed with all of the bad things that have happened. We need the board to give us ano

She looked down at me from above, all the tenderness in her eyes completely drained away. "And now you're giving me attitude over a ring?" I lifted my head to look at her, my eyes red-rimmed. "Emma, is it really so hard to love just one person?" She furrowed her brows irritably. "What did I do? Is cheating against the law? Which law says cheating is illegal? Vince, stop being so dramatic, alright?" The word "dramatic" hit me across the face like a slap. I couldn't stop my whole body from trembling.

As I talk, the town has plummeted and half of the pack lying dead. They are merciless. I fear the end is near for us” “No! That can never happen! I know what Gregory wants” I looked from the Gamma to my husband who has been quiet all the while probably strategizing on what to do. Whenever he is that quiet in a chaotic situation, something was driving through his head. Before it always worked, as in the end, he often comes up with a solution.
