Jake Peralta Novels & Stories

He chuckles and continues to search the room. “I’ve come to claim what is rightfully mine, and her scent led me here.” He says, then meets Sergio’s gaze. Kai’s voice wasn’t loud, but it demanded submission. It was deep and powerful, leaving an ache in my core that surprised me. The unmistakable Russian accent was like music to my ears; I had to hear more. “Leave before I kill you myself, Wilkołak.” Sergio roars, but Kai only shakes his head. The other Alpha clicks his tongue. “You know I'm Russian, not Polish, right? In any case, I’ve only come for what’s mine, Andretti.” He says, and I notice the unmistakable scent of intimidation from both the Alphas.

He wasn't done. "You are a selfish and manipulative bastard who sees nothing wrong in things that are considered outrageous by people. You need to take off that masked attitude you fix on yourself when you show up to the media, bro. A wealthy bachelor for the women?!" Jake muttered in sarcasm. "You aren't even the executive director the world thinks you are. You were no longer a bachelor a long time ago, considering the amount of sperm you donated, which formed and got terminated in the most heartless manner."

He asked me. “Kai gave me my inheritance. We’ll be okay,” I said to him. “So what’s our plan, Jake?” He asked me. Slade has always called me Jake. He shortened Jericho Kiran to JK and that became Jake mainly because he had a speech impediment as a child and couldn’t pronounce his R’s until he was fourteen, but by that time Jake had stuck. “We’ll buy a house, get settled, register for school–” I began but he interrupted me.

Naghahanda na naman sa 'disappearing act' si Samantha. He could see the signs. Ang marahang paglalapag ng kahit na anong hawak. At ang kawalan ng imik at tinag. Naghihintay lang na malingat siya, bago biglang maglalaho na parang bula. "Hey, Monsour, neyndiyan key na peyla," wika ni Jake. He was wearing a proud smile as he spoke in his stilted Tagalog. "How do I fare, ma'am?" tanong pa nito kay Samantha.

Jake looked sad as he said that. Luna fell silent. She could understand how Jake felt. It must be very painful when his dream is underestimated, especially by his own family. Jake's studio is very well known and is used as a subscription by EO, and high-class WO in Indonesia. It could say a very promising business. "It's a shame, your business is going very well," Luna said quietly. "They think it's just my hobby. I won't get much money from there," Jake said and smiled sadly.

Was it his kindness, or was it the Alpha's glare shooting daggers in my direction behind the man? "You're welcome." He smiled. "Harrison Cage. That's my name. What's yours?" "Scarlett." I added. "Scarlett De Luca." "Cage." Alpha Jax's voice seemed ominous for a second as Harrison's eyes went back and forth between us. "Pardon me." He replied. "I'll see you some other time, Scarlett." He said as he went back to the Alpha's side. As they exited, Alpha Jax turned back with eyes full of fire, enough for me to burn to the ground.

“What is it that is forcing you to keep that woman alive? Huh? Why are you so scared of killing her like you’ve done for both her mother and father?” “I believe that you are well aware that not only did we kill her mother and father twenty years apart, but she was far too young to have anyone around, and Bartolomeo was more than willing to work on our terms. We just failed to see that…” “The man was only making use of what you were offering him, and fucking hell were you offering a lot. The man wasn’t going to allow you to go near his daughter and you took zero advantage of everything that you got.” Jasperrando said, stopping me. His eyes were fixed on me, and though others would have been i

I would have returned the favor even if it implied losing my job. “Don’t tell me you are still impulsive in your actions,” Elisa intruded my thoughts. “Are you expecting me to keep mute and let a lady whip my ass?” “Sometimes you just have to let things be.” “Why would I want to do that with Matilda?” “You need the job, remember. There are debts and bills to pay. The last time you acted so impulsive, you ended up signing a contract with Alpha Leonardo,” she taunted me harder. “That was me saving my Father. The scenarios are different.”

' pinigil niyang matawa baka makurot siya nito sa tagiliran ng wala sa oras dahil masisira ang momentum nito. "Bakit masama bang mag-pasintabi? Baka sabihin inagaw ko eh. Iba kasi yung inagaw sa ipinagpalit diba? Mas mabuti yung klaro at saka excuse me! Hindi ako cheap! Kaya nga ako yung pinili kasi I'm better," depensa ng ahas sa sarili. "Katrina stop it!" tila naiiritang sabat ni Jake. "You're making a scene," mahina pero pasermong sabi nito sa bagong nobya.

He winked at me before walking down the stairs and rushing toward his car as I looked at the glass of orange juice and pushing it aside. “Rough night?” A man asked from beside me. I raised an eyebrow and turned to look at him, watching as he smiled. His hand had a phoenix tattoo, and judging by his scent, I could tell that the man was an Alpha. “And you’re choosing to forget about it by drinking orange juice?” “I don’t drink alcohol.” I said, and he chuckled before nodding at my stomach. “I can tell, your child’s heartbeat beats you to that.” He said, and I laughed. He extended his hand to me, and I raised an amused eyebrow. “Malakai, but friends call me Kai.”
