Chapter: 194. TabithaTabitha:I stared at it; every alarm in my head was going off. It was really a gun. A real… gun.“M-Maybe… Maybe it is fake. L-Like a prop or decorative piece or something?”I swallowed hard, reached out my hand and touched it. I recoiled almost immediately. The barrel was cold. Ice cold, metallic and hard. I looked at my fingers, watching them shake. I touched… a gun. Was it used to kill someone? My… My fingerprints are on it now. Did that make me a criminal, a suspect? My hands flew to my mouth. “Oh, my…”I reached out to grab it, but I stopped myself. Should… should I wash it? I… I can’t have my fingers on a weapon. Maybe I should… no, that wouldn’t work. That would make things worse. What if I…“Tabitha?” There was a knock at the door and then a soft click as it opened. “What the fuck is taking you so long. The meal is here, and I don’t want your Daddy calling me and asking why I hadn't fed his…”I turned to Natasha, who was standing near the bed, clutching her coat and a refille

Chapter: 193. EnzoEnzo:“Someone is going to kill me?” I repeated, almost unimpressed and disappointed that he wasted my time. “Yes,” Collin replied, his face stiff, his gun now beside him. “I would suggest that you watch your back and be careful of who you talk to and associate with.”I raised a brow, my eyes traveling from the gun beside him to his face and then back to the gun. “I don’t want to be rude with this ‘oh so important’ information that you have given me,” I replied, trying my best not to sound mocking in such a precarious situation, “but you shot at me while I was trying to head into my car this evening. I have a broken window to prove it.”Collin smiled, picked up the gun and ran a finger along the silver barrel. It was dark, the cloud cover was thick, and it was pouring now, the rain hammering hard against the window, and yet, the silver barrel caught the light there was and seemed to shine. “I know, Mr. Ross. I never removed myself from the equation, so you should watch yourself and

Chapter: 192. TabithaTabitha:“A… A kidney. That’s…”“A lie? A fluke? That no one as wicked and witchy as me could ever care so much about someone to the point of giving them a kidney?” I made a face. It was like she had read me like a book in one glance. She stood up, still in only a pair of red silk panties, and walked to the TV. She opened a cupboard, rummaged for a while and pulled out some papers. I watched her as she stood, looking through them, her hands shaking slightly, before she walked back towards me and shoved them in my hands. "Have a look. I'm a lot of things, but a liar isn't one of them." Her voice was sad, angry. She refused to meet my gaze and headed upstairs. I sat there and looked through all the papers. It was legitimate, written right here in Medical jargon. She did give her father a kidney, and from the looks of it, some bone marrow as well.I flipped another page. It was copies of countless requests sent out to a Miss Hilda Bolden, but they were all unanswered. I couldn't fi

Chapter: 191. EnzoEnzo:I packed up my desk quietly. The day had moved so slowly, and I just wanted to go home and get some rest. My phone sat on the table. I had purposely decided not to put it into my pocket. I was hoping that she would call, and she would text with an apology. She knew how I felt about her going, about her getting involved, but she chose to go anyway. I left angry and upset. The least that she could give me was an apology for how brash she was acting. But hours had already passed. My phone had been face up like that since she left, and there was nothing.“I should have known better,” I sighed, finally grabbing it and looking at it one last time before I shoved it into my pocket. “She is probably already in a brawl with Natasha. I knew this was going to end badly the moment she agreed to it.”I shrugged and grabbed the last file. There was nothing that I could do now. I had given my word, and I was still mad. I had never felt this angry, this ignored. I flopped back into my chair and

Chapter: 190. TabithaTabitha:I made a face at the waiting car outside. This was it. I was finally going to expose the witch. The driver stepped out and opened the front door, his face stiff and unsmiling. "Miss Hyest," he said in a calm and professional voice. I nodded and got in. Natasha was sitting quietly, legs crossed, lips in a smile as she looked me up and down. "I didn't think that this would be the kind of day that we'd be having," she smirked. "Dad packed you an overnight bag so that you'd be cozy. How sweet of him." I glared at her but her smile only grew wider. She was enjoying this. "I will make it clear for the last time," I said, with a deathly calm, even though every fibre of me wanted to lunge at her and attack, "I will only answer to Tabitha and I will not have you talk about Enzo like that. Got it?" She pouted and batted her eyelashes. "Did I get his little plaything upset? Awwn. How sweet." I turned away from her and pressed myself as close as I could to the other door. A futi

The files kept piling up, and even though I finished them quickly, more kept coming, kept piling, like the universe was doing everything that it could to keep me in the office.Enzo had sent a few text messages, but I was still too mad at him to reply. I knew that things had been rough for us, but that didn’t mean that we would hear of a kidnapping and just act like it didn’t bother us. We knew the truth. There was a very high possibility that this whole thing was orchestrated by Natasha. “I hope Andrew is doing okay.” I groaned, resting my head in my hands and sighing. What if they were hurting him, beating him… Oh my god…There was a knock at my door, and I called from inside. It creaked open softly, and Nora walked in, holding a file. Her face was a cheery pink, but as soon as she saw me, her lips went into a hard line, and the cheer on her face went ice cold. “I was asked to give this to you,” she said coldly, dropping the file

The clouds felt brighter, the air felt fresher. Everything seemed perfect. It was stunning. I loved it.“Mom!”The door slammed open and my kids rushed in and jumped into my arms. I hugged them all, sniffing the tears back.“Mom, you aren’t even ready yet,” Elsa frowned, tugging hair. b”You haven’t even brushed your hair yet.”I chuckled and pulled her onto my lap.“I will get it all done, but I won't be able to do that with you three running all over me.”Ethan puffed up his chest and became the big brother.“Come on. Mom needs to get ready.”He pushed his unwilling sisters to the door and closed the door behind the three of them. I giggled. They were so sweet. I loved them so much.I had a quick shower and sat down at the dressing table. It was a simple wedding. Nothing fancy. I had already been married to him before..

It was… it was white!I stood up. I felt strong again. My wounds were gone, and Hazan and Javier were whimpering in pain, lying near a few rocks. How did they even get there?Huh! The Gem!Lisa was hiding in the undergrowth but it didn't take long before I found her.“No! Please! Don't kill me!"She tried to cover her head and the Gem slipped from her grasp.I turned around. Hazan was down and so was Javier. This was my chance…I shifted into my human form and grabbed it. Its body was cold against my fingers and glowed faintly. I had to find Dante. We had the Gem. We could end the war!As I ran to the battlefield, I heard footsteps behind me. My heart was racing…I wasn't sure how I could carry the Gem in my wolf form. Once I shifted, I would go crazy and attack Hazan.No! I needed to focus. I nee

Our sources did confirm that he was gearing up for battle and he was planning to make his move today as well.I had never been to war. Robert, Dante and Lorenzo stood at my side. The men were agitated, both fearful and itching for action.I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. My father had asked me to have faith and love, that I would win. I only hope I had enough.The agitation was broken by a loud cry. I gasped. He was here. He was coming.We stood our ground and assumed our ranks. The wolves were snarling and growling, itching to sink teeth into flesh. Then… I saw them.Hazan and his troops emerged from the forest to the clearing, led by a tall, handsome man with jet-black hair and glowing green eyes. I saw his hand.The Gem!

Now that Javier had escaped and possibly exposed our plans to Hazan, that was when Clarissa and Lorenzo told me that Javier had been pretending to date Clarissa. He offered to go on the date with Clarissa and asked them to keep their mouths shut about it.“We made a few adjustments," Robert said calmly, moving a piece forward. “We have new warriors coming in; they will help us hold the front line, and we will be able to hold them off for a while."“What about Hazan?" Dante asked, avoiding making eye contact with me. “His has the Gem. If he activates it, he will be unstoppable. Our wolves on the front line will be useless. It will be a slaughter."“Put me on the front line," I cut in, my eyes still burning into the paper.The room fell silent and I could feel all eyes on me.“Erica, you can't. You

His Ex Lover
"Vaxel Jericho, do you take Clarissa Vicente to be your lawfully wedded wife, to live together in matrimony?" The priest asked.
He bends to her ear, his face showing nothing but hate.
"I vow to live together in hate, making you spend the rest of your life in agony and pain, and making you pay for the sins of your mother" he whispered to her ear.
"To love her, to comfort her, to honor her and to cherish her?"
"To hate you, punish you, to break you and get you fucked up"
"In good health and in sickness, forsaking all others, until death do you part”? The priest asked.
"In depression and in sickness, through tears and even at death we part not" his vows whisper to the ears of his bride.
Fear written all over her face, she let the tear drop.
This was just the beginning.
~~~
The war between both families, Vicente's and Jericho's, had started years before the heir's were born.
Both families would never be seen in the same place at the same time, the mere mention of the name was a problem and caused a rise of anger.
But something crazy happens and the heir and heiress of both families fall in love, as they say love happens.
Falling in love was a crime and when both families find out about the little love affair between Vaxel and Clarissa the two are separated.
Five years later, an accident occurs in Vaxel's welcome party, an accident that forces him to do the forbidden thing. He forcefully marries Clarissa in order to make her pay for the sin she never committed. The sins of her mother.

I walked up to the restroom, when I was done and about getting to the door, the lights in the restroom began flickering.

She was gone and would never come back.He had heard about Clarissa's mother's accident; she was also hospitalized too.

She pushed the last door open to see her mother lying on the floor with a knife in her hand. "Mom! Dad, come here! Help, someone! " She yelled, tapping her mother.

Chapter: Chapter 4 Ayana: The walk home was incredibly longer than every normal day. This time around, I could feel the sorrow shaking my very being as my crowded head refused to process the shimmering light in the distance until the motorcycle raved past me. " If you want to die, don't let me be the murderer bitch!" The biker shouted as he revved past me, his words enough to jolt me out of my reverie for a minute, but not enough to keep me grounded. I had lost all feelings of communication and care until I stepped into the house and the air felt....wrong. Then her whimpering followed. " Mum?!" I called out as I trashed through the curtains that now laid sprawled on the floor and the broken flower vase as I made my way to the kitchen where my mum was crouched, holding onto Janelle as she sobbed. A small glass shard stuck out of janelle's arm like a sore thumb, the little piece the cause of the whimpering as my mum tried t pull it out again. I did not need to ask what happened.

I wasn't expecting visitors from the pack today but elder Silas was not a mere visitor. I still had memories of him watching me train in wolverine control, eyes glinting with the pride my father's eyes never held. " Alpha, good evening". I did not stare at him immediately.
