The fact that my body was burning with excitement from his promise, the fact that my core throbbed when he promised to fuck me terrified me more than anything else. " I intend to ruin you, Lara, silently. " He added, as he squeezed my breasts, harder, and jolts of pleasure and excitement shot through me in currents. " Because after four years, I am back in your life, Lara." " And I plan to ruin you quietly, right under his nose." " You have to promise me something, though " It was almost like a request, and before my mind could register, I was already nodding my head. " You have to promise me that you won't make any noise. "

I sat at my desk in the dark and felt the full shape of it settle over me. Daniel Vreeth hadn’t spent four years building a revenge operation over a business dispute. He had spent seven years watching his father lose everything to Harrison Voss and then methodically building the tools to return the destruction. Marcus wasn’t just a weapon — he was the son of the son, the next generation of a grievance that had been burning since before I ever met any of them. And I had been the door they walked through. My mother had married the man who destroyed them. I closed my eyes. Did she know? Had she known the whole time.

“Dri… baby, please. I’m so sorry. I fucked up. I can’t stop thinking about you. I’m drunk and miserable without you. Come back to me. I’ll do anything. I swear I’ll—” I hung up before he could finish, my hands trembling. A second later a video came through. I opened it before I could think. The footage was from my old apartment. Carter had broken in. He was smashing things, my favorite mug, the framed photo of my mother, tearing clothes out of my closet, throwing books across the room. His face was twisted with rage. “You think you can replace me?” he screamed at the camera. “I’ll burn everything you own. Come back to me or I swear I’ll find you and make you regret it.”

Alpha-knock. We heard Marcus open it. "Marcus Stone," a new voice said, deep, accented. "I am Alpha Kade of Red Moon, West Coast. You have broken council law by recognizing a null mate and broadcasting our existence to humans. By old law, I challenge you for territory and for the nulls." Silence in the main room. Karl and I looked at each other. "Of course," Karl muttered. "We win against the humans, the wolves start." He took my hand, claws out a little.

Liam said “ Keep him alive to speak.” I ordered “Nothing more, I'm on my way.” I hung up and tucked my phone back into my pocket, the rush finally dulling the pain in my split knuckles. The doctor said Dmitri was stable now but still needed to rest but the security breach at our gates was a loud declaration of war, someone thinks Carmene family was getting soft, this marriage alliance is probably one of the problems. I walked out to the parking garage where James was already waiting beside the car.

"Study it how?" "Nothing invasive. Nothing that would harm you. I simply want to understand how the fragments relate to each other, how they communicate, how they might be used together." She stopped in front of me, close enough that I had to look up to meet her eyes. "The Primordial was broken apart millennia ago. What if it could be made whole again? What if the fragments could be reunited into something greater than the sum of their parts?" The hunger stirred at her words, interested in a way that made my skin prickle. It liked that idea. Liked it a lot.

I leaned against my car, unbothered “what does that have to do with me, I don’t work for you remember?.” “This isn’t the time for games Clarissa.” I laughed softly. “ you think i have time to play games with you, I’m too busy for that Blake, please don’t call me again” i said and ended the call. A few seconds later, the phone rang again, I picked. But this time his voice was lower, almost like he was pleading. “Please this is important Clarissa, the company is on the verge of bankruptcy, I’m loosing everything Clarissa, everything we built, I’m sorry I kicked you out, but I really need your help right now.”

The butler threw her out, but Sam's phone buzzed incessantly with calls from creditors and ex-partners. In frustration, he smashed it against the floor, finally understanding what it meant to be abandoned when the chips were down. He sank to the ground, haunted by the image of me smiling on Fabio's arm outside City Hall. His heart ached, the pain suffocating.

she asked. Her mother turned slowly, eyes tired, face drawn. “The company… we lost it,” she said quietly. “Your father’s business is bankrupt, Deli. Everything is gone. We’ve already sold three of the properties. The house will be next.” Delilah stood frozen. “What… how?” she whispered. “Please, go to your room,” her mother said gently as more men in suits came through the door, this time heading toward her father with contracts and files.

I just grabbed the kids closer, their bodies pressing into my sides as they stared at the ruins of the place they were supposed to call home. Everything I’d pictured about coming back was shattered instantly. This wasn’t just damage. It was destruction. It was a pack hit hard, and hit recently. “What the hell happened here?” ***
