Thaddeus Thawne の小説・ストーリー

Now, last night is something I will never be able to share with her. I spent my entire night stalking him. Alexander Joel Thorne. The CEO of Thorne Electronics. 32 years of age and 6’3 tall. Millions of followers on I*, but all he posts are pictures of the night sky, beautiful buildings, art, expensive places, and his view from his penthouse—I know this because I’ve been inside his home twice now. Not even one photo of himself. He only follows Thorne Electronics on all his social media accounts. Not his friends. Not even Dimitri, which I think is weird because they’re good friends and Dimitri follows him.

Adrian murmured, his dark eyes locking onto hers with an intensity that burned through the residual chill of her lingering anxiety. He unbuckled his seatbelt and crossed the cabin, sinking his massive six-foot-four frame onto the edge of her seat. He reached out, his long, calloused fingers closing securely over her cold hands. "The war is over, Lydia. Julian Thorne is in federal custody. Jessica Sterling’s assets are frozen. The patents are signed, sealed, and locked in our vault."

I gave him one last look, then turned and walked away—same as I did three years ago. He followed. Quiet. Always a few steps behind, never saying a word. But he was still Sandro Vaitti. The name, the empire—it was tattooed on his soul. He couldn't walk away. A month later, he finally stopped trying. Next morning, I opened my door on my way to work and saw a package. Inside? The diary I'd trashed three years back. The last page was still there—where I'd written how happy I was to be pregnant.

“He’s here. He is qualified for the job, and he’s had his own past in a world with men like Lorenzo.” “Bring him in.” She opened the door wider. A man entered with the kind of stillness that clears a room. Tall. Dark hair, neatly kept. A charcoal suit that didn’t announce itself and a gaze that did, cool, attentive, unhurried. He stopped at a polite distance, as if measuring the space between us and deciding not to invade it. “Mrs. Blackthorn,” he said, nodding once. “Elias Gray. Thank you for accepting me in your firm. Ms. Vale told me that you needed a lawyer as a second advisor to your lawyer.”

"I'll have Damian wire a hundred thousand to your account the moment the jammers are down. Consider it a retainer for your... exclusive attention." Thalia didn't blink, though the number made her blood hum. "A hundred thousand? For a saint, you negotiate like a sinner. But make it a One hundred and fifty thousand." With a blank face. "Fine. Deal." he said. Julian reached past her to click on the massive TV screen. The news banner was still plastered on the screen. "Update on last night’s assassination: One of the victim has been identified as Marcus Thorne, CEO of Thorne Tech."

The hallowed halls of St. Jude's University were lined with ancient oak and the stifling scent of dust and tradition, but in Lecture Hall 4, the atmosphere was different. It was electric, charged with a tension that made the skin of twenty-one-year-old Elara Vance prickle every time Professor Gabriel Thorne spoke. Thorne was a legend in the architecture department-not just for his brilliance, but for a cold, aristocratic detachment that seemed to challenge every student who dared to look him in the eye.

I still hold all the alpha meetings here like my father did. Walking over to the shower, I cut it on while waiting for the water to warm up before stepping in. I chose my beta when I was 17, which is my best friend Creed. My gamma is his brother Ryan, I don’t have a delta yet, I’m not sure I will. Creed does an amazing job, he is also my strongest warrior. He trains the males in the pack while his mother Subrina trains the female wolves. My gamma does all my running when I’m either too busy to or I just don’t want to. Otherwise they both help with every decision I make. Now, I know I said I was alone in all this, even though I do have them I still feel alone. Stepping into the shower washing

Concerned, I asked, "You okay?" Scott's response was curt. "I'll see you later." Back in my room, I recounted my encounter with Scott's dad to Lyra. "You got invited by Tepes Thane?" Lyra exclaimed. "That's huge!" I asked, "So, that's his full name. Why is the such a big deal?" Lyra's eyes widened. "You still don't get how iconic the Thanes are! Tepes Thane is the most powerful supernatural being alive. He single-handedly ended multiple wars and oversees a million-dollar empire."

Natalia was a great cook, and one of the renowned chefs was in the building to coach her. I made my way to the left side of the lobby and froze on the spot when I saw Bez, one of the biggest music producers in the werewolf world. He was with a musician called Jola. I wasn't surprised when I noticed Alpha Adonis standing beside Bez, engaged in a chat. Like the rest of us, Bez was pleased to be in the Alpha's presence. My heart raced with joy, realizing the Alpha's involvement in my sudden success. No one had ever shown such interest in my growth, and it filled me with a deep desire to prove myself to him
