Identity V Joseph Novels & Stories

“Who… who were the people I lived with?” Joseph’s expression darkened. “Their real names were Carl and Louisa. They were once trusted allies. And they betrayed everything.” A breath caught in her throat. He turned back to the portrait, his voice rough with memory. “Rosi… she was my only child. The light of my life. A mafia princess by blood. My daughter.” Ellaya’s pulse roared in her ears. Her mouth went dry. “She didn’t want this world,” Joseph continued. “She fell in love with Michael—clean, dignified. A man of peace. I disapproved at first. But when I saw the way she smiled with him… I let her go.”

Odd considering most successful business owners were at least part wolf. Of course, that didn’t mean she was going to lower her guard. “Mr. Motherland?” The older man turned smoothly, a charming smile already curving his lips. A smile that didn’t hide the shrewd intelligence in his dark eyes. “Please, call me Joseph.” “Tosa said you wanted to talk to me?” “Yes, Ms…?”

“You know this.” He nodded in response. “I know,” he said. “That’s one of the things I love about you.” Joseph was returning to his job at the vampire academy this morning and then he was going to the mountain village to see if there was anything needed from him. It was nice having things get back to normal, even if I wasn’t exactly sure what “normal was.” But I knew this was normal for Joseph; he was one of the Elders for his vampire tribe and he was a teacher. This was the kind of stuff that he did, and I knew he was getting cabin fever and not being able to resume his duties.

He added, before he began to demonstrate the story to me, as he began to say to me, “David was as little as me, but he easily defeated Goliath. You see? No matter how big or strong Nathan's elder brother looked, I could totally defeat him. You shouldn't underestimate your little cousin, cousin Adira” “He is an ex soldier who only retired because of an injury. And I heard that in his squad, he is in charge of handling a sniper gun”. I said to Joseph and burst out laughing when he lost his composure and almost fell. This my little cousin, was my pain relief medicine. Forget about going to a doctor to help heal my broken emotions. Joseph had healed me with his lively personality. I shrugged my

Catherine had learned about Joseph's profile. She only glanced at it, but she had got a photographic memory. Joseph had learned contortion skills since he was a kid, so he could shrink into a small form. This information was confidential. Only the seniors of the organization could access it. Hence, it was thanks to his contortion skills that Joseph could successfully acquire the chip and take it out of the base. When Joseph knew someone had broken in, he realized he was in trouble.

“Yes… Understood. I’ll be there immediately.” Hanging up the phone, he looked at James and said, “The general is calling for me. He has convened an emergency meeting.” James frowned. After brief contemplation, he said, “I’ll go with you. Get me a new identity.” “Understood.” Jose nodded. As he was a lieutenant, he wielded enormous authority. Forging a new identity was a piece of cake for him. In just ten minutes, James had gotten a new identity. He was now Jose’s assistant and relative ─ Santiago Maksim.

Max POV. It's been 3 weeks since I last heard from Josephine, my love. I have tried calling her line but I keep getting this stupid message. 'The number you are trying to call doesn't exist.'

I asked in disbelief. “Yes,” she answered without hesitation. “Do you know each other too?” “Yes, he’s Vinn.” I turned to Vinn. “I thought your name was Vinn? Why did Uncle tell me it was Joseph?” I asked, confused. “Yes, I’m Vinn. Joseph Vinn Zuniga,” he said, but his eyes were focused on Tami. I kept shifting my gaze between the two of them.
