A heavy, calloused fist collided with Calista’s frame, slamming her onto the wooden chair. A sharp groan escaped her lips as she collapsed forward. Standing above her, her father, Jake, watched with a twisted smirk as blood welled from her wounds. “I love hurting you, do you know that?” he murmured, his voice dripping with malice. “It satisfies me, gives me chills, reminds me of just how much strength I still have left in my system, even at my age.”

She almost hated it when Zoe said they were turning back. She had been debating since Jonas's last phone call whether to tell Trey about her situation. She knew it was confidential, and she of all people didn't want any word of where she was getting out. But Trey DeMarcus had been a Navy JAG lawyer for twenty years and was a practicing attorney now with a respected firm. He had to be safe, right? And to tell the truth, she could use the emotional support she was sure she'd get from him.

the guard said, as my father came forward and took his seat. “The matter before us is the crown versus Bradley Tiresias. He stands accused of the murder and torture of Hayden Jackson. How does the accused plead,” the guard said. “Guilty, out of self defense,” the lawyer said. I took in the criminal’s appearance. He had shoulder length black hair, very pale skin. He looked as if he could use a bar of soap and a hefty meal. He didn’t seem like he could capture a man then torture him. He couldn’t have been more than 5’5.

I looked at inspector Arcillas. "Take him in." He ordered one of his officers. Jay was put into handcuffs. "I didnt do anything, It wasnt me!" He struggled. But he couldnt fight back. Atleast ten armed officers were around him. "Honey." I looked at Chain. "Yeah, hon?" He showed me his phone. Someone named Calahan's calling him. "Answer it- oh." Then I realized who it was. I forgot about him to be honest. "Why is he calling?" I asked.

Alpha Kyle's POV I paced around the room feeling rather uncomfortable. I was unable to sleep last night as my wolf didn't let me sleep. He had been disturbing me to look for our mate. Rejecting my mate wasn't a good decision as I didn't feel my body again. The pain was more than I had imagined. Even though I had tried to suppress it, I felt I couldn't continue to suppress it.

It was Jason calling. “I’ll take this outside,” he said, turning toward the hallway to answer. The moment the call connected, Jason’s anxious voice came through. “Mr. Carter, your wife didn’t show up for today’s hearing. She sent a representative—Ace Reed is here.” Ace was a top-tier attorney in the legal world and the Sinclair Group’s exclusive counsel, known for only handling cases within the Sinclair network. When he took a case, there was never one he couldn’t win. Plenty had tried to hire him with massive retainers, but he turned them all down.

“She’s in there, probably scared out of her mind, and I’m not going to sit here and do nothing.” Justin sighed heavily. “If you go to her now, you’ll expose everything, and by that I mean Lucas. Are you prepared for that?” “Yes.” Jayden didn’t hesitate. “Zendaya means more to me.” “I’ve taught you well,” Justin remarked. “Lucas is already aware of the situation and his lawyer is already working on getting her bail.” Disconnecting the call, he stepped out of the elevator and quickly made his way to his car. His mind was set.

Brayden Jefferson said unpleasantly, "Joaquin, get your attitude right. He's the heir of Acorn City's head director! What's wrong with having some fun with a few brides? He's helping them to improve their gene pool! "How can they turn around and complain against him while not even thanking him? They have slandered Mr. Kayden! In my opinion, unruly citizens like that should be caught and burned alive! Forget it. You don't need to bother with this incident any longer. I'm on my way to Acorn City!" Brayden hung up abruptly. Joaquin gripped his phone, and his face turned purple. His eyes were bloodshot with rage. "Mr. Ballard, the tristate inspector has been alerted to this matter, and he has no

Jake looked directly at the jury. “I expect you to believe the truth. I was a scared boy who froze. I carry that shame every day. But I did not murder my mother. Ray Harlan did. My father helped him. And my mother has spent twenty-three years punishing everyone but the real monsters.” The courtroom was silent. Then the prosecutor stood for redirect. “Mr. Harlan, is there anything else you wish to tell the court?” Jake took a deep breath. His eyes found Emma. She gave him a small, encouraging nod.
