Marc And Nathaniel Novels & Stories

Marcus stopped laughing, stood up, pointed at Natalie, and said, “Come to my study.” Natalie immediately stood, nodded politely to Kade, and followed Marcus into the study. “Do you know Kade?” Marcus suddenly turned to look at her. Natalie paused, unsure what he was implying. “I met him once when I was young, when I accompanied my master.” “Oh?” He pulled out a cigarette pouch, tapped one out, placed it in his mouth, and smoke filled the air. “Then do you know why I let you see him today?” Furrowing her brows slightly, she replied quickly, “I don’t know.”

My previous boss was right—it was difficult to resist taking the easy route and it may have been a matter of time before I caved to the desire to have a better life. “Don’t think like that. Your dignity is not something you can get back when you lose. You might find yourself unable to sleep at night.” She might have spoken all that encouraging talk but it wasn’t very encouraging. “Hazel!” A voice boomed, which made Julia and I jump in surprise. Markos stood a distance away looking at us with a weird look on his face. How long had he been standing there? Did he hear what we were saying? I straightened my back and faced him while Julia scrambled away. Everyone feared him for a reason. He was i

Nathaniel's POV Dana found me in the office at seven the next morning with the particular expression she reserves for news she has already decided I won't like. "Marcus had breakfast with Halloran yesterday," she said, setting a folder on my desk that was, I noted grimly, becoming the week's theme. "And dinner with Chen the night before that. Two board members in two days is not a coincidence, Nathaniel. It's a campaign." "Using the marriage story."

They are gathering, plotting, waiting. Nathaniel paces behind me, his footsteps heavy on the wooden floor. His arm is still in a sling, but he moves like a man who has forgotten the pain. He wants to go. He wants to leave tonight. He wants to fly to Switzerland, confront Crane, and end this once and for all. I see it in the set of his jaw, the fire in his eyes. Marcus sits across from me. His face is hard, his eyes tired, dark circles underneath. He has been staring at the photograph for five minutes without speaking, his coffee growing cold beside him. The fire crackles in the wood stove. The shadows dance on the walls.

I knew it would piss Nathan off further and he was being a prick about something that didn’t even happen. Besides, Daniel and I needed to keep an eye on Maya. “Get comfortable guys, you’re going to need it.” I looked around, although it was slightly bigger, the room was nothing fancy, but it was a comfortable space to relax. Nathan cleared his throat. “What's our current stats.” “No house,” Daniel was quick with that one. It’s the fact that vexed him most. “Natalie and Pack possibly injured.” I offered. “Not for long,” Nathan countered.

she pressed. Nathan hesitated, as if weighing how much to say. “The Gray cousins… Marcus and Alexander. They’re both talking to me, but not to each other. It’s like I’m the only thing preventing total silence. The air is so tense you could cut it with a knife. It’s maddening.” He let out a nervous chuckle, but quickly sobered. “Honestly, Marcus usually doesn’t try to ingratiate himself with Alexander. It’s weird. And Alexander… he talks to me, but never looks at me directly. It’s like he’s afraid to meet my eyes.”

Evangeline’s POV I don’t want to let Ora go, but Nathan insists he finds out who everyone is. He sends word for Merida and Anabelle to join us in his office. I may have stayed in the academy previously but never been in this room. I can tell from the decor that this room belongs to an academic. Standing beside the desk are three identical men. I can see the resemblance between them. Nathan is their father. The way they protectively surround Maria makes me think she is their mate.

Only from there could Lian confirm that what was on Nathan's face now was a reflection of his mother. Candra, a name that Liana had remembered since the conversation about the introduction plan surfaced in Nathan's apartment at that time, The name that Nathan said he had to anticipate was the name that Nathan thought could be the reason why they were here. Yes, that's Nathan's father's name—Candra Mahardika.

know that despite what you say with your lips you would go back to your father and he would drain you of everything you were given. You would not only deal with your father but Beau's father. Master Nathaniel wouldn't rest until you were back here." She said, "Why, why does Nathaniel and Beau care?" Carls said, "Master Nathaniel hired someone to look into you before he even made the deal with your father… He knew about your background, he knew about what your father did to you, and he knew that your father would take the bait. The thing about Master Nathaniel is this… He tries to do the right thing, the wrong way. Master Nathaniel would've never bought you if he knew you had a happy life, d

I was staring at him and I guess Nancy noticed, so she immediately introduced us.
