When they emerged from their hiding spot, Amalie looked much better and her dark mood had lifted a little. I asked Brent if he could suss out what happened between them, but my Beta had no idea. “They were communicating, I’m sure of it,” he said, “but I didn’t hear or see a thing.” That’s spirit wolves for you. They guard their secrets. Shawna once told me what I didn’t know could kill me, so I decided to follow her advice and keep my nose out of their business. The spirit wolves split themselves up into groups. Wordlessly and without my guidance. They picked squads they wanted to stay with and left with them.

I replied. He went on, "This is Hanson, Theodore, Edward." In fact, before coming here, I'd checked their backgrounds. Hanson and Charlie were brothers, while Theodore and Edward were cousins. Charlie's hand moved to the last two females. "This is Elizabeth, and this is Victoria." "Nice to meet you all, I'm Tabitha. Looking forward to working with you." I introduced myself with ease, but my eyes were scanning their faces closely. If the mastermind was hiding close to Derek, his secretaries were prime suspects.

The secretary forced out a smile at them again as her eyes locked with Sadiqah’s sister’s. They have been sitting at the reception room for over one hour… “He has some visitors.” The secretary explained and they both know they had to wait and they did wait and it is been over an hour that they have been waiting. “Just be patient.” Her sister had told her. Some few minutes later, the door opened and they heard some laughter and the guests came out; it was Aziza, Musadiq with Hibah in his hands.

Then, he said, “Do you know me, Dr. Calvo?” Dr. Calvo gives a soothing smile as he responded, “Who am I not to recognize the most elite, eligible bachelor and the most fine-looking son of the Chief Executive Officer of the Jackson Corporation? Of course I know you and it’s a great privilege to personally take good care of you Mr. Jackson.” Miguel chiseled chin moves up and down as he reprimands, “Aside from that two ladies, who else knows I’m here?” “Well, aside from my two staffs, that two ladies outside and your cousin, no one else knew you’re here Mr. Jackson!” Dr. Calvo answered reluctantly.

All thanks to Luigi motherfucking Gonzalez. I haven't seen Alessio since the funeral, I did go there to see him. I even offered him a hug which was so not me—but I did it anyway. I remember seeing his friend there, I think his name was Sean or something. He was the American Mafia Leader and a very very hot dude might I add. "I'm gonna need you to send a few of your men in the address I'll send you in a few seconds," I responded earning a small groan from him, "who'd you kill this time?"

We all have secrets. The first real secret I ever had began when I was nine years old. I’m not talking about when someone tells you something and you keep it to yourself—it’s more like when you know something or have seen something that no one else has, and telling someone about it takes away from your pleasure, from your secret. Now, I’m not going to talk about my secret eleven years ago. I’m going to talk about my biggest secret of all time. Back when I was sixteen years old.

They never gave their emotions away. "Do you know anything about the certificates, David?" David stared at the men in front of him carefully. He knew why his friend, Alex, was doing this, and he supported him too. He promised to keep his secrets but only until it was time. He knew now that the time was now. "Yes, I do," David said. "Can you please tell me what you know?" David stared at Adam for a long time. He knew he could trust Adam with his life, so he saw absolutely no reason why not to tell him what he knew.

Without hesitation, Ethan accepted the lion key. Henry took the raven. Eleanor accepted another. One by one, Marcus, Olivia, Samuel, Gabriel, Richard, Elias, Jonathan, Victor, and Captain Nora each took a key. Twelve people. Twelve keys. One promise. ⸻ Outside, the first enemy boats reached the shore. The Hall’s bells rang continuously. Not in panic. In warning. The lead Archivist looked at Amelia. “There is one final secret.” He led her behind the circular table to an ancient mosaic set into the floor.

The air smelled of damp earth and night-blooming jasmine. “Your mom,” I said quietly. “She had an affair. With someone named Robert. Do you know who he is?” Kai’s face went blank—dangerously blank. “Put them back where you found them.” “But—” “Alex.” His voice was steel. “Some secrets are better left buried. For her sake. For all our sakes.” I nodded, but the parallel sat heavy in my chest. Hidden love. Lies. Risk. Was that all we were?
