Novel & Cerita Letty Ortiz

Leti stood in the doorway, eyes wide, clutching her phone. “Demi,” she breathed. “You need to see this. Now.” She shoved the screen at me. It was a news alert. BREAKING: Famed Art Professor Jeff Ortega Wanted in Madrid for Withholding Evidence in Alleged Suicide Attempt of Camilo Nunez. My knees buckled. Leti caught me. And somewhere in my mind, I could still hear Jeff’s voice: Some truths are only meant to be half-seen. The sun was cruel that day.

“Of course you weren’t. You were too busy trying to prove a point.” “I still have no idea what you are talking about,” I said, getting tired of Madelyne’s rant. "Kailani, stay away from that woman," she warned, her voice low so only I could hear. "I mean, she ran into me. I couldn’t do anything about that but apologize. Who is she?" I asked, rubbing my stinging cheek. "Her name is Letita, a Beta," Madelyne explained, glancing nervously down the hallway where the woman had disappeared. "She's one of Alpha Houston's latest conquests, and she's possessive of his time."

She glanced at it, saw Larry’s name, and frowned. She silenced the call. The phone rang again. Liam noticed her hesitation and gestured for her to take it. Letty stepped out of the room, irritation evident in her tone as she answered. “What is it, Larry? I’m in a critical meeting with the Hale representatives. This better not be trivial, or I’ll fire you!” Larry’s voice came through, hurried and anxious. “Madam, some people are here claiming to be Sir Danial’s friends.” Letty rolled her eyes. “They’re probably just opportunists. Send them away.”

Yuri asked. "I'll tell them I wanted to attend the Met Gala with Silas to show his other business partner that he has a lady," Letty said. Yuri and Mac exchanged a bewildered look. A maid escorted Letty to her guest room, where Emily would also stay. I informed Yuri and Mac about Letty and my agreement with her. Although they were opposed to the idea, they agreed to support me. No matter how challenging things became, I knew Yuri and Mac would have my back. They never left my side. Those two were my family. *********

“Just once. Two young bucks thought they were going to fight in my bar. They now know better.” “I bet they do,” I said with a giggle. “Being attacked by all one-hundred-twenty pounds of you must have terrified them.” “I think it might have been Martha that really scared them,” she said with a grin. Martha was her bat. It was her lucky bat. She’d played softball in school and kept it behind the bar. Her Louisville Slugger was not to be messed with. “Martha is an intimidating gal,” I agreed. “I want a beach day. I’ll be busy this week, but what about next week?”

Getting ready to beat the shit out of him, I feel my blood pressure boil and try to calm down. "You should be happy that she doesn't sue you for everything you own, considering you have been constantly sexually harassing her for the last two weeks." He stands up and gets ready to walk out. Right before he slams the door shut, "It takes one to know one." After he leaves, I get a phone call from Lewis. "You wouldn't ever believe what I found out about Mr. Damon Rodriguez." Answering, I am confused at first. "Who?" "The man you asked me to look into earlier. He apparently has done a stint at San Quentin for blackmail."

Especially with Alpha Drew and Alpha Rex lingering around. Lily is stunning in a turquoise high necked dressed that falls mid-thigh with her hair pulled up in a messy bun. Her make-up is perfection. Going into my changing room, I put on my cocktail dress, grab my heels, and come out. I left my hair down as my signature style, with a bit of make-up. Lily looks at me with a sparkle in her eye, “Is someone looking to impress someone tonight Ms. Adams?” she teases. “Or is it too soon to tease after your attack? I’m sorry Katie, you know I’m kidding right?” Lily is now fretting over her comments. “Don’t be silly Lily – there is definitely someone I am hoping to impress and I’m not going to

she uttered with delight as she mentioned her mother. "Layla is my mother, Catherine Lockwood, the rightful Lycan Queen," Letty said haughtily. "The current Lycan King is my uncle who killed my father for power and the throne which belongs to me. I never had greed for power but I have to take back what rightfully is mine and take revenge. I can't let him live knowing that he's the culprit who caused my family pain and I had to live my whole life disguised as a Lantern werewolf."

There was no way in hell Ripley could find fault in this woman. She was like a saint. Perfect record—not too pretty, but not scary-looking either. She had kids of her own that were grown up. One is a lawyer, and the other is working for doctors without borders. Nanny Leticia was impeccable at her work and had ten references from prominent families to prove it. I had picked a romantic restaurant and had paid extra for a booth in the pack, so we would have privacy. I’d bought flowers and even a small gift to apologize.
