Jasmine's pov Three weeks later"Baby, it's gonna be fine""But...""It's fine, we're just here for a normal check up" Thana told me.Ok, this is what is happening right now...We've had peaceful days, but my health kept declining... the dizziness.. sudden cold.. vomiting and stuff increased. Thana's been trying to get me to the hospital for check ups, but I kept refusing.But finally, he succeeded in dragging me to the hospital, now entering the doctor's office (aunt Grace) is now a problem. I sighed."I'm gonna be here with you, also, it's just gonna take five minutes and we'll be done" he said.I rolled my eyeballs at his words, he's talking as if he's the doctor.. what a sweet talker."Let's go" I said. He nodded and pushed the door opened, then made way for me to go in and he followed after me."Aunt" I called aunt Grace when we fully entered her office.She closed the file she was reading and lifted her head.. she broke into a full smile when she realized it's me."Jasmine,

Chicago police department!After our flight, which lasted for 3hours.. we arrived at Chicago.Peter sent our bags to Thanatos penthouse, while the rest of us decided to call at the police station. Currently, we're listening to the recorded conversation.But while this is going on, an old man whom I just got to know as Mr Roman, is glaring daggers at ma Gloria."Ahem!" An officer cleared his throat. "Mr Roman, what do you have to say about this? Did you had this conversation?" He asked the old man.Mr Roman simply glared at ma Gloria and scoffed, he refused to speak a word."I'll take your silence as a yes...""Don't waste your breath, I know you're gonna send my case to the court.. but first, I want to see my grandson" Mr Roman said.His grandson? That should be Thana's stepbrother... I looked around but there's no unfamiliar face here, it's just us."Grandfather, I'm here!" An unfamiliar voice spoke from the hallway.I turned and waited until he walked into the office or interrog

Jasmine's pov The next morning..."Is it really necessary for you guys to go there?" Adele asked.My eyes flicked towards Peter who's carrying our bags to the car, then sighed. "Yeah.."She frowned at the bags Peter's carrying, then took my hands in hers and pouted."Why are y'all taking so much bags with you? Do you plan on settling there already?"I frowned slightly, then burst into a brief laugh."Adele, we might stay for some days.. you're making it sound like I'm abandoning you""Are you not?" she asked."You're just being overly dramatic" I told her.Just then we heard a knock on the door, I wanted to go get it but Adele told me not to bother.Her flicked to my stomach and she smiled, she pushed me onto a sofa and made me sit down."You should take care of yourself now" she said, her eyes still on my stomach.I rolled my eyeballs."I told you guys, this might just be a false alarm" Honestly, I didn't want anyone to find out about this just yet, because it might be a false ala

Adele's pov I'm feeling so nervous right now, it's as if I'm sitting for an interview.Mr and Mrs Evans sat on a love sit opposite us, another gorgeous lady who look a lot like Mrs Evans...sat on a sofa next to them.She folded her arms on her chest and stared at me attentively, her stare is giving me goosebumps."So...tell us truthfully, is your father a businessman?" Mr Evans asked.I bite my lower lip, swallowed the nervous lump in my throat and shook my head."No" I answered. "He was a farmer"It's better I tell him the truth now, I can't bear the repercussions if he finds out I lied later...rich people are always powerful."Was?" He tilted his head slightly."Yes, sir...he died last year, he suffered lung cancer" I said. Mr Evans nodded, he exchanged a knowing look with his wife and her lips curved in a smile.. or smirk.. I don't know.I'm too nervous."What about you? Which of the universities did you attend?"His question made my blood ran cold, will he chase me out if I told

Jasmine's pov The officers sat opposite us, their notes, pen and recorder ready to take ma Gloria's testimony. "Mrs O'Briens, are you ready for us?" One of the officer asked.Ma Gloria took a deep breath and nodded, though she seemed a little bit nervous."Alright, let's start with.. who's Mr Roman to you?" The officer asked."He's.. he's.. my stepfather"Who's this Mr Roman everyone is talking about? How come I don't seem to know him? Or maybe I haven't seem him before."Your stepfather...." the officer trailed off and jotted down in his note, then lifted his head."... can you tell us about your relationship with him?" He asked.Ma Gloria nodded, she cradled Davis whom she's still carrying in her arms.. she had refused to lay him down."My mom got married to Mr Roman three years after my dad died, she took along with her, my sister and I.. Grace"So.. it's true, doctor Grace is truly her sister."Roman already has a daughter who's the same age as I...""Sorry to cut you, Mrs O'Br

Jasmine's pov A tap on my shoulder woke me up from my sleep, I sat up and massaged my stiffed neck... a yawn left my mouth.Wait...when did I fall asleep? weren't we just watching a movie?My eyes located the wall clock in Adele's living room, a gasp left my mouth at once... It's been two hours already.How could I sleep for such a long time? I guess the movie was too boring and I ended up falling asleep. "Jas, they are back!" Adele said.I sprang off the sofa abruptly, my heart suddenly skipped and some unknown fear gripped me..my heart started beating fast.I hope it all went well..."Jas, Clark and Thana are back!" she repeated her words."They're back?" I asked again.I turned towards Davis who's already sleeping on the sofa, I carried him on my shoulder and snatched his backpack from the table. "Em...good luck" I told her, referring to her meeting with her in-laws.She smiled and nodded. "Thank you, I think I really need some luck"Just then, her door pushed opened and Clark r

Alexa p.o.vFew days later...! Induction/coronation ceremony...!"Aunt, are you really sure I look ok?" I asked aunt Kate for the one thousand time!Right now, we're outside the big ballroom where my induction ceremony is taking place.Xander's coronation is already going on, he must be crowned first before my induction.Aunt Kate laughs and take another look at my white wedding dress... she give me a big thumbs up."You're absolutely beautiful" she said.I smiled, I believe her because I could hardly recognize me when I looked into the mirror too."it's time, Xander's crowned already!" Aunt Kate said.I listened and I really heard people cheering and calling Xander *your highness!*"Let's go!" Aunt Kate said giving me her hand.I take her hand and she leads me into the ballroom.. everyone keeps quiet as I step in, they turn towards me with smile on their faces.Aunt Kate and I walk towards the podium where the king and queen's throne are set... Xander stands in a corner waiting for m

Alexa's pov Calm.It's calm everywhere as we finally made it back to the pack.There aren't no kids running up and down the streets.. shops along the road to Xander's mansion are closed.And there are guards on every street... What in god's name happened?"Xander, why is everywhere so quiet?" I asked."Nothing, just a small rogue attack!"I frown."A small rogue attack can make the largest pack so sad?"He simply hums and increases his pace.We made it to Xander's mansion, he puts my arms around his neck to support myself.. while he reaches for the key under the flower pot outside. I take the key from him and open the door but surprisingly, the door's unlocked.I raised an eyebrow at him."Maybe I didn't have time to lock the door!" He explains and I sigh.He steps in and immediately, we're bombard with sorries from all corners... my mouth falls open.I look around and realized everyone I know in the pack is here.. like everyone.Aunt, aunt Kate, aunt May, uncle, Joyce and Janet, Jen

79Writer's pov Xander's mansion...!"Connor, get out of my way!" Xander growls.Connor shakes his head and blocks the door, he's under strict order from the king not to let Xander out... No matter what."I need to find my mate!""Alpha, his Majesty has sent trackers already"Xander scoffs."Nobody knows my mate's scent better than I"Connor still doesn't let Xander through...he wanted to force his way out, but that will just put Connor in a difficult situation with the king.Xander runs his fingers through his hair and sits on his bed.He shuts his eyes and tries to mind-link Alexa again.. but he simply hits a wall."Stop f$cking blocking me!!" He growls out.*I can feel mate in trouble!* Liam said.*Of course she is! It's obvious!* Xander growls at him.*No! Real trouble!* He shuts Liam out and snaps his eyes open, he sees Connor receiving a mind-link.He waits a few minutes and Connor snaps back, panic in his eyes."Alpha, the packhouse is under attack... A lot of people dead alr

78Alexa's pov Few hours later...!After much struggle, I finally untie myself.I rub my ankles and hiss quietly from pain, red marks from the chain visible. "I don't know guys, but I'm gonna quickly look around.. there might be a way out of here!" I said.I get up and quickly untie everyone, one after the other."Thank you, Luna!" They all chant.I hushed them and gesture towards the door, silently reminding them that guards are standing outside.They nod and keeps quiet. I look around, trying to find a window but didn't see any."Luna, we're in an underground house and there's only one way out!" A lady told me.I sighed... well my little hope is gone! The little boy rushes forward and wraps his arms around my legs.He looks up at me with his big, round sad eyes."Luna, save us, they're gonna kill us!" He said in a scared tone.I carry him in my arms and raffles his hair.. I flash him a smile."Don't worry, I'll surely save you guys... I'll get you out of here safely!"I narrow my

Writer's pov King's office...!"I have sent the pup to her parents... Now I think we should send some trackers to track where the other pups are... Then we'll go rescue them!" Xander said.He had told his father how they found the little girl in the woods.His father nods and turns to his beta."Send five trackers now!""Yes, your Majesty!" He replies and rushes out. The king searches for a file among his heap of files and drops it in front of Xander.Xander reaches for it and reads through... A frown appear on his face."Dad, this is war strategy!"His father nods and plays something on his phone.. a recording.Xander listened until the end and his frowns deepens."I don't understand!""Your Mom record that, the seer told us all these!"He slams the file on the table and slumps onto a chair in front of his father's desk."And you guys believe him?!""Yes and no!"Xander stays silent and glares blankly at the files."We don't know if he's lying or not, but we have to take precaution

Alexa's pov Liam slows down as he gets near a lake, he stops by the side and crouches down.*Get down slowly!* He said.I hop off his back and pats his back."Thank you, Liam!" I flashes him a smile.He gives me a wolfish grin in return...or I think he gives me a wolfish grin.I turn and take a look around, I'm awestruck at the view here...across the lake there's a waterfall.I turn back to Liam."Can you please give Xander control back?" I asked him.*Trying to get rid of me so soon?* He asked in a jealous tone.I shake my head and I hear him chuckles through our link...ok, I don't understand why Liam is jealous of Xander.They're both the same, aren't they?"Liam, I've spend some time with you...I think I should enjoy this view with Xander too"He huffs and in a flash, Xander's sitting in front of me...naked! I quickly cover my eyes and he laughs."I thought someone wanted to see me?""Yeah, but when you're naked!"He laughs again."Are you being shy?" He asked.I didn't reply, I s

Adriano’s POVSix months later…“Now that we’re done with the ceremony, can we go on a proper tour of New York like I was promised?” Danny asked.Roselyn hit him upside the head and said, “Don’t be insensitive. Today is your sister’s day.”“Ouch, Mom! That hurt,” he complained.“And you deserve it,” Melanie’s voice cut into the conversation.“There’s my favorite nurse!” Sam yelled.“Dad, tone it down,” she said.“Nonsense. I would shout it at the top of my lungs if I had to so you can know how proud I am of you,” he replied.She smiled at her father and went to hug him then she did the same with her mom and brother who all congratulated her before she stopped in front of me.“I always knew you were something else, little nurse,” I told her. “From the first day I set my eyes on you, I knew you were better than the rest of us.”“Stop it you’re going to make me cry,” she said.I opened my arms and she stepped into me for a hug.My girl was finally a registered nurse and today was her gra

Melanie’s POVThe ride back to the house was very quiet.Throughout the ride home, I couldn’t help but think that none of this would have happened if I just had a conversation with Adriano.He was the man I fell in love with and even though I left him, he didn’t hesitate before coming for me.I know he was very relieved in the heat of the moment but I couldn’t help but wonder what was going to happen once the adrenaline wore off and he could think a bit more clearly.One thing I knew was that I was going to spend the rest of my life trying to make it up to him.Adriano was more honorable than people knew. I never thought I would be one of those women who would be pleased because her man killed people for her but as it turned out, I was one of those women.He pulled up to the house, which seemed to have more security guards on duty than normal and I knew it was all because of me.A few hours away, we were celebrating Christmas in bliss but I just had to go and ruin everything for every

Adriano’s POVThe warehouse was a hive of chaos, but I didn’t hear the shouting or the echoing footsteps behind me. All I saw was Melanie. She sat bound to a chair, her face pale, and her lip split, a streak of blood trailing down her chin. Alex Pushkin had a gun pressed to her temple. My blood ran cold. I raised my weapon, keeping my voice steady. “Let her go.” Behind me, my men spread out, weapons aimed and ready. They waited for my signal, but I couldn’t give it—not yet. One wrong move, one miscalculation, and Melanie could die. Pushkin laughed, a guttural sound that grated on my nerves. “You think you scare me? I’ve killed better men than you.” His hand twitched, and I saw the flicker of uncertainty in his eyes. Good. He was scared, even if he didn’t want to admit it. Fear made people sloppy. I needed to buy time, distract him long enough for my men to position themselves. “Erica,” I said, shifting my focus to the woman who stood off to the side, smug and self-satisfie

Melanie’s POVI woke up to the biting chill of a dark, unfamiliar room, my head pounding as if it had been split in two. My wrists ached from the tight ropes binding them, and my ankles felt just as constricted."You’re awake," Erica drawled, her tone laced with mock concern. She folded her arms and leaned against the rusted frame of the door, watching me like a predator eyeing its prey. "How are you feeling, darling?" I didn't respond. My throat was dry, and my words caught somewhere between anger and fear. God, how could I have been foolish enough to let, Erica manipulate me? I should have known that she was up to no good when Alice told me that Adriano left her at the altar.I guess now I was paying the price for my foolishness."Cat, got your tongue?" she asked, smirking. "Or maybe it’s the shock of realizing you’ve been so incredibly stupid." Her words stung more than I cared to admit. I should have known better. Adriano had always been honest with me in his own way, even w

Adriano’s POVSomething was off.I didn’t know what but the moment I ended the call with Nik and sat down to work, something in my head kept nagging at me.At first, I thought it was the unusual silence in the house but I figured that was because everyone was probably asleep.I had expected Melanie to come find and chastize me for taking too long but since she didn’t, that meant that the day finally got to her and she succumbed to sleep.My girl was a rockstar tonight, and like I expected, she had my entire family eating from the palm of her hands throughout the dinner. I was sure they saw exactly what I did from the moment I set my eyes on her.By now Nik should be mobilizing the guys to infiltrate the last warehouse. He got intel that Pushkin finally moved all the girls to one place and he just got the location. I trusted Nik could handle this without me, after all, he had just singlehandedly negotiated a new deal with the Irish.Tonight I was going to end it sleeping next to the wo

Melanie’s POVThe cool night air felt like needles against my skin as I hurried down the street, my duffel bag slung over my shoulder. My legs felt like lead, but I pushed forward, every step putting more distance between me and the house that was once my prison but later became my home. The streets were quiet, the kind of silence that normally would have scared me, but tonight I welcomed it. I avoided the well-lit areas, sticking to the shadows, hoping none of Adriano's guards would see me. My pulse raced with every second, and my breath was uneven.I had no idea where I was going, but I didn’t care. All that mattered was getting away and I was lucky enough to have been able to avoid the guards. I guess the weeks of walking the grounds and studying their routine paid off.Luckily, a cab finally came into view at the corner of the street, its headlights a beacon of hope. I flagged it down, my arm trembling as I waved. The driver, an older man with kind eyes, rolled down the window.

Chloe’s POVI ran a hand through Flynn’s hair as I watched him sleep, his eyes shut closed tightly and hands wrapped around me. My eyes wandered off to the clock, which had been beeping for what seemed like a couple of minutes and I couldn't help but wonder why Lucas wasn't back yet.A lot swirled in my mind as I lay next to Flynn in bed. Memories from when he had held down my hand staring into my eyes. Making the walls around my pussy tighten with ease.I hated how it was that I couldn't take off those thoughts in my head, that all I suddenly wanted was to have him locked in between my legs. I blinked away the unwanted memories lurking at the corners of my consciousness as I snapped back to reality.I lay in bed staring in deep thought at the chandelier above Flynn and me. Most of my body was still excluding my eyes blinked every second or so and the constant rising and falling of my chest. Although my state seethed calm, inside I was a bundle of emotions. Millions of thoughts ran

Lucas’s POV“What the fuck are you doing here?” I grimaced, shoving both hands into the pockets of my pants. I found him staring at a painting on the walls of my office with a smile creased on his face.I tightened my fist, fighting back the urge to attack him from behind making sure to have him leave with a broken nose.“Mr Salavatore!” He said, grinning the minute our eyes met. “How long has it been?” Alexander added, picking up one of the aesthetic pieces on my desk as he ran a finger over the glassy design.“What do you want?” I shot at him. Knowing he was here for no good reason other than him causing a scene.“Won't you at least ask that I sit first and we could talk,” He said, with a smile creased on his face as he stared back at me.“I’ve got other better things on the line Alexander!” I growled.“Like babysitting Chloe huh?” He responded, and just when he did he giggled as if he’d found all that was happening funny.“I'm going to give you the opportunity of giving a response

Lucas’s POV “Fuck!”“I just said that out loud without even thinking,” I thought to myself as I stared back at her.I slowly hated how it formed a nut in my chest, sending various chills down my spine from looking straight into her eyes.“Our contract doesn't apply to us prying into the other's life!” Her voice rang in my head cutting through the thoughts in my head. “So long you're under my roof, you're mine to keep!” I grimaced. This time, I leaned closer than usual, with my hands wrapped around hers as I had it pinned slowly to the bed.“I'm not an object!” She glared at me.“I never said you were!” I yelled back at her.The only downside was how distracting Chloe was. How it was that if she talked for too long I always for some reason got lost in her voice instead of listening to her words. And every time she moved the faint waft of her perfume from across the room clouded my thoughts.My eyes lingered on her eyes as I fought down the urge to let it settle where else, just when

Chloe’s POVA migraine made it's way to my head as my eyes fluttered opened. Just when I did, I realized I was right in a moving car. The loud honking of the cars surrounding us washed away my sleepy state. I leaned my head against the car window, with one hand over my temple trying to remember how on earth I’d gotten into a moving car.My eyes trailed off to the side to find Lucas typing away on his laptop. “W—what happened?” I asked, breaking the silence in the room, still holding onto my head. Feeling a bit lost in how I’d gotten into Lucas's car.“You passed out,” Surprisingly, Lucas responded.“Where are we?” I added.“In a car,” Lucas responded in a rather duh tone, with his eyes still glued to the screen of his laptop.The migraine I felt a couple of seconds ago worsened and I just couldn't understand why it suddenly felt that way.I tried to move but my body felt too weak to even be able to move a single muscle. I shook my head trying to fight off the migraine. I gripped my

Chloe’s POV“You bet!” I said, giggling alongside as I grabbed a glass and then chugged it down my throat without even a second thought as to whether or not my actions were smart.“Good girl!” Greg called out with a smile creased on his face as he chugged his as well.“Wanna dance?” He asked. “I guess,” I responded as he had me dragged to the dance floor where the other college students were having fun as well.I swayed my hips relentlessly to the pop music in the background as I felt a hand over my waist. But for some reason, I didn't mind.Pulling furiously at my ever-riding dress, I danced to the rhythm of the music in the background. The smell of booze instantly attacked my sense of smell. As I continued, my eyes scanned the dance floor and the phrase “Packed like sardines,” sprung into my mind.“More shots?” Greg yelled into my face. A little lost on what he said, I nodded. Finding it increasingly hard to maneuver around the sweaty bodies, I proceeded to push my way through the

Chloe’s POVA glance at my watch tells me, I only have thirty minutes left until Monica comes yelling from the front door of Lucas’s mansion. Asking that I go with her to the party.Which also happens to mark the beginning of the weekend as well. “Fuck!” I grumbled, staring at the clock.My phone chimed, bringing me out of my momentary daze and I scrambled around in my purse trying to find it. The minute my hands landed on the device I had it picked up almost instantly. Staring at the screen of my phone, I realized she was the one calling. Monica…“For Christ's sake Monica, do I have to go with you?” I yelled the very minute I had the call picked up. “I’m just going to get into trouble with Lucas and me arguing over some dumb college party,” I added. Just when I did, there was a pause. And then came her voice.“Are you insane?!” She yelled.“I mean, girl!” Monic
