They were sharing their meals without a second thought. Zara's smile was bright. She must be excited about her new job at Schmidt Group, which was not too different from her old one at Azure Cloud. Although it was a sideways step in her career, it still was a reason to celebrate. Yosef, however, was not one to get caught up in other people's joy. After wiping his hands with a napkin, Yosef turned to Sarah and asked casually, "Are you done eating? If so, I can drive you back."

"I step away to use the restroom, and you're done playing already?" I looked over and saw a man approaching in a dark gray athletic outfit. He was just as tall as Isaac, with an air of casual affluence in his features. He also looked about the same age as Isaac. Isaac glanced at him and said evenly, "This is Micah Holmes from the Holmes family of Jervia. He's a friend of mine." Then, he turned to Micah and added, "This is Josie York, a journalist from The Weekly Report."

Jacob’s POV The girl’s name is Calista Caitlynn, a nineteen year old omega. She speaks to me with enough wisdom and intelligence that not all women have, by her looks and her figure I even thought I could marry my son to her instead, only that she lacks the name for it. I could still picture how she gasped for air the moment I touched her, it felt like she wanted me to do more of that. She’s perfect as a whore, to be honest, but she’s even more perfect to serve.

she continued, and I could hear the shift in her voice, the one that meant she was moving from comfort into something more purposeful, "you are also Aria Santoro. And I have known you for four years and I have watched you walk into rooms that didn't want you there and rearrange them without breaking a sweat. This is just another room." I almost smiled. "Someone sent me severed fingers, Josie." "I know! That's disgusting and they will absolutely pay for it." Her voice was deeply serious for exactly one second. "But you cannot let them make you small. That's what this is, it's someone trying to make you feel small enough to step back. And you do not step back." "No," I said quietly. "I don't."

She sits at one of the tables, sipping what appears to be a martini, and her face contorts in disgust after her first sip. I chuckle, tilting my head as I observe her. She wears a sash, but due to the distance and dim lighting, I am unable to decipher its inscription. "Gelo," I utter, the name of my beta. "I desire to know the message on her sash." Gelo chuckles next to me, catching my eye. "It's her twenty-second birthday. Her sash says to buy her a drink. I've sent you, her details." My phone vibrates a moment later. I pull it out of my pocket, her username shining brightly on the screen. The temptation to ignore this perfect chance tugs at me, but I can't resist the mystery of the unknown

Isaiah says, more to himself since he seems to have forgotten we're here with him. "Eligor, what are you doing here? I thought you were with Dawn." Isaiah shifts uneasily as I step into view, sitting down beside him as Flame does the same and he seems to relax in her presence, reaching over to squeeze her hand. "A baby is a blessing Kateline dear, you'll be a wonderful mother. Helena is ecstatic to be a grandmother again. Although Eligor doesn't know we see his other children so please don't mention it." "I won't." Flame says kindly, holding onto his hand and looking into it. "Would you tell me more about her, about Helena, while we wait for her I mean."

I sighed turning to look at him briefly. “do you think, she’ll like the venue?”I asked. Jose laughed. “nervous, I see” he muttered “she’ll love it and by the way it’s okay to be nervous, dude I threw up at my own wedding” I chuckled at the memory of that day, luckily he didn’t get his vomit all over his wife’s dress. “you’ll do great, now go have some fun as a single person before u get married”. he stated patting my back and standing up. I nodded and followed him to where the others way.after a few turns the winner was finally announced and it was Jose. Very surprising. Note the sarcasm. After paying Jose his money, we made him treat us to dinner in a fancy steak house we found. He wasn’t v

All we wanted was to be Jacob and Sadie and be free. I found a woman by the name of Doctor Riley Kim. She is a well-known Psychiatrist here in Baker with a hell of a reputation. She is also very expensive and hard to see. I got an appointment for Sadie and me two weeks after Sadie turns eighteen. We hoped she would work with us once we told her our situation. We needed her to see Sadie as a mentally healthy woman. We needed her to see how wrong Sadies reports were. The only thing we worried about was how the doctor could get ahold of Sadies records without giving our location away. It wasn't going to be easy, but we had to try something.

It was calm and peaceful but almost like a whisper like there was something stuck in the speaker's throat making their voice come out as if, along with white noise. The both of them turned around to the speaker, it was none other than Jelena Savage herself! The Coalition Chieftess of the Als race!

Adam comes running back into the hall with Rory right behind him. “Sorry,” she says when Adam crashes right into Josie. “It’s all right.” Josie bends over and picks Adam back up, putting him back on his feet. “Gosh, it’s been so long since my daughter was this small.” “How old is your daughter?” Rory asks, scooping up Adam, who immediately fusses. He reaches for me and stops fussing as soon as he’s back in my arms. “She’s fourteen,” Josie answers. “Oh, yeah, it has been a while since she was little then.” Rory looks at me and then back at Josie. “I’m Rory, Jacob’s sister.”
