Steve Harrington Novels & Stories

The Walther stared right at her forehead. Her eyes followed his thumb as it pulled the safety pin. A cold sweat dripped down her neck. Her left hand was a few inches away from the pocket knife in her jacket and all she had to do was reach for it without raising any suspicion. Easy, right? The only problem was she realized this guy was not just any crazed Tom, Dick, or Harry that needed some quick cash or anything else to that.

Steve wore a sports jacket over a dark mock turtleneck that emphasized his broad shoulders and powerful chest. Ralph Smith addressed the group. "Folks, we're in for a real treat today. In case any of you've been living in a cave for the past couple of months, you need to know that our high school football team is undefeated, and much of the credit for that goes to this young man, Steve Hammer, team quarterback.

All of the words seem to bleed together, but there are three at the end that I can make out crystal clear: ‘he’s finally here’. I freeze, forgetting to breathe for a second. She can only be talking about one person- the same person that I’ve heard her obsessively talk about for days now. Alpha Xavier, the leader of the shadow pack. They’ve been telling me that he’s coming here, but the news of his arrival still sucks all the air out of my lungs. I don’t know what Xavier wants with me, but given his reputation, whatever it is can’t be good.

I answered and smiled at her. “By the way, I am Tasha, I am the team director here in the CEO’s Office. I am here to give you this, it’s the schedule of Mr. Harrington for the whole week. He just fired his former secretary the other day, so you have a lot of work to do now” She explained. What he fired him? Damn! Mr. Harrington looks like someone whom you cannot mess with. I should really do my job well. I get the tablet from Tasha and thanked her.

As I walked away from him, another man was approaching me. Haden. Just what I needed. "Is it important?" I snapped as he began to follow me. "Last time you had to lead anything of this scale on home turf it was against Ayas," he said, "It's an honour to fight alongside the great Alpha Loren rather than against you." "Fuck of Haden," I replied, "I don't have time for your pointless wittering." "I just wanted to let you know you have my full support," he said.

Hilary's dad and the old man bro hug each other and shake hands. "Here's my daughter Hilary." I bowed and shake hands. "And here's my son, Richard." A five-foot and nine inches tall guy wearing a mask extends his hand. I shake hands with him. "So let's talk about the wedding?" My eyes almost got out in my eye socket. "WEDDING!?"

Dante forcefully suppressed the anger in his chest and spoke to all of the news media reporters present at once. "I want to make one thing clear," he said, his voice ringing out over the noisy crowd. "Stardust Limited will not be defeated! The Harrington family will not apply for bankruptcy! Someone is intentionally targeting the Harrington family. I advise that person to give up their dirty tactics. The Harrington family will only become stronger!" The reporters recorded Dante's words, but their expressions remained skeptical. As seasoned news professionals, they were well-informed of the Harrington family's dire situation.
