Chapter: 82. Tabitha Tabitha:Enzo stayed with me. The silence between us lingered long after the stitching was complete. My body ached like crazy. I was kept in a lying position and asked not to sit up. It hurt so much that I felt handicapped. The monitors around me were still beeping, and I hated it. I wanted to say something, to thank Enzo for being with me, to answer questions to help the investigation, but each time I opened my mouth, the words were choked by tears, and I fell silent again.Everything was a haze. I still couldn’t believe that I was spending the rest of my evening being hooked up to machines. Enzo pulled a chair and sat next to me. I was grateful that he wasn’t asking me anything. I couldn’t bring myself to talk. I held his hand and squeezed, and to remind me that he was here, he squeezed back.The doors slammed open, and my heart rate went up, making the monitor beep wildly. The officers stormed in, and Enzo glared at them.“What are you doing here?” he asked, “She is resting and i

Chapter: 81. EnzoEnzo:I watched them drag Tabitha into the back of the car. I still couldn't believe everything that had happened today.“Sir, we're going to need you to also come along so that we can take a statement from the both of you, since the both of you are also victims in the crime,” the officer said, looking at me sternly.I know that this was obviously going to be a difficult case. I still didn't think that something like this could have happened on such a casual work morning.“Do you have a vehicle with you, Sir?” The officer asked, and I nodded, pointing to my vehicle, which was parked in the parking lot.“Good. We are out of police cars, so I would like you to quietly come with us in your car. Any attempts to drive away or resist will be taken as resisting arrest, and if charged in court, you should be convicted."I understood well enough and signaled my driver to get the car ready.Soon I got in, and I couldn't help but sigh deeply. I had a few cuts on my face and arms, but nothing tha

Chapter: 80. Tabitha:“Police! Get down!”I tried to open my eyes, but they stung and watered like crazy. I think smoke entered my lungs, and I coughed wildly.“Tabitha!” A hand grabbed me, and a jacket went over my head. "Stay down!" Enzo held me tight as gunshots rang throughout the restaurant, shattering glass. Someone screamed, and things smashed on the floor. It was total chaos. Some screamed, and another shot rang out. My heart was racing. I couldn’t stop shaking and thinking of Nora. My eyes were tightly closed, and I was wheezing from the heavy smoke. My mind began to play tricks on me. I began to see Nora being wheeled out of this place, bleeding and on the verge of death, and that Ryan would escape, and he would come for me next. He was crazy. He really was crazy. “We’ll help you out.”I didn’t recognize the voice, but I held tight to Enzo. He helped me up, and with my eyes closed, we walked quickly to the exit. My whole body ached, and I was shaking with fear. My eyes were still

Chapter: 79. Enzo:Tabitha Burst into my office, painting with her phone stretched out in front of her. “Nora is in trouble! Nora is in trouble!”Without thinking, I grabbed the phone from her and my eyes scanned through the texts. All that was written there was help and what seemed like the place that she was at though the message was incomplete but had been sent like that either way. She probably had a phone taken from her. “Where did Nora say she was going?” I asked Tabitha who was breathing frantically and pacing around my office.“She said that she was meeting some guy at a restaurant. I didn't get the restaurant details from her.”Tabby was hyperventilating and I immediately sprung into action and took the words that seemed to be an address from the text and searched them. There were only two restaurants that had those four letters in their names in the city and one of them wasn't too far away.“Tabitha, get to the car away from me and I'll be there with you shortly.” She didn't argue and

Chapter: 78. Tabitha Tabitha:I was happy that the meme hype had gone down. people were still pointing at me and whispering but people no longer thought it funny. From the moment I walked in, I had some semblance of a normal work day. Nora was smiling from ear to ear as she escorted me to my office. “You are not going to believe this?” she said excitedly, as I set my bag at my desk and began taking out my things.“What?”“I just bagged a date with this cute guy. His name is Michael and we are meeting at a restaurant later today. I can’t wait!”She squealed excitedly and I was genuinely happy for her. For someone as shy as she was, it was good that she found someone that she actually liked. I got my desk in order and gave Nora some instructions. Work had started in earnest and I began to answer the flurry of emails that filled my inbox. One after the other, I attended to them, my fingers dashing across the keyboard. A notification from Enzo popped in and as soon as I read it, my lips fell at the corner.

Chapter: 77. EnzoEnzo:My eyes fluttered open and it was still dark. Tabitha was nuzzled next to me, her face buried in my chest, breathing deeply and holding me tightly. I smiled and stroked her hair and watched her stir, loosening her grip around my torso and adjusting to a new and more comfortable position. I frowned slightly. Maybe I had been too hard on her. Was it really my fault? I hadn't had her in so long and it felt like every thrust was me having her for the first time .I could still hear her moans, I could still feel her grip on my arms, I could still taste her soft lips. I would happily relive the whole experience all over again. I would never get tired of it. I sat up and she stirred a little more but didn't wake up. Slowly, I got dressed and tiptoed out of her room, closing the door as softly as I could behind me. I had some work that I needed to attend to but as and as much as I wanted to remain in bed with her, I had to put my business in order as well .I got to my room and op

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.

Chapter: Lost and not found."Sure, I was in the party hall having some chats and drinks when I felt uneasy , I told my husband I was going to use the restroom, since I barely knew a thing. I asked a girl who served drinks where I could use the restroom and she directed me. I walked up to the restroom, when I was done and about getting to the door, the lights in the restroom began flickering. The door was pushed open and someone got in, I really can't remember what happened. I just woke up beside my husband this morning." She explained. "You mean, you didn't see anything else?" "Yes." "How did you faint?" He asked. "I don't know, the only thing I noticed was that I felt the door was opened, not felt, I heard the door crack open but no one walked. If someone did I should have heard but I didn't the next I felt something sting me and that was it." Sje explained. "I'll get to ask you some other questions very soon ma'am your case is quite complicated and we have to get to an end soon. " "Okay."She nodded. ~~~~

Clarissa was in a velvet colored gown. The gown was tight on her body and showed her every curve, her hips were threatening to tear the sides of the skirt.Louisa smiled seeing the middle aged woman sit on the dining chair."Aunty!" She smiled rushing to her."Baby girl. " She smiled as Louisa bent to kiss her."How are you dear, I've missed you so much.""I'm fine aunty."

Chapter: what really happened?Vaxel sat on the floor of the hospital. The news about the death of his grandmother has spread like wildfire. And his father's house was almost burnt to ashes.He let the tears roll down his eyes, he didn't even get to spend some more time with her. She was gone and would never come back.He had heard about Clarissa's mother's accident; she was also hospitalized too. Was this some sort of welcoming game, what was happening?This question filled his head."Mr Jericho. I am inspector H. Damien. And I've been assigned to investigate the death of your grandmother."Vaxel took his head up when he heard the voice of the inspector."I and my team will interrogate each and every family which attended your welcome party starting from you." Fredrick nodded.Vaxel stood from the ground "We promise to render all support and help, we will tell you all you need to know and in return help us get justice for the murder of my grandma!" Vaxel said he looked so anxiously and miserably sad. His eyes had

Chapter: Do you have feelings for him?Louisa sat on the fountain with Jason, she ate from the bowl of noodles while having a conversation with Jason. He'd forced her to eat something, even if it was a little amount of food. With a chopstick, she took the noodle in her mouth."Where did you learn to cook such noodles? " She asked him, Jason smiled at her, she thought he lied when he said he knew how to cook."I just learnt it. I guess I have this thing for food, I learn new recipes anytime I cook.""That's nice but it's so bad I really don't know how to cook. I guess the only thing I can do properly is heat food in the microwave.""Woah! You have a long way to go.""Will you be my tutor?" She asked."Well! You'll have to pay a fee.""Of course, how much?" She asked innocently."I don't know. I'll probably tell you later." Just then, Louisa's phone rang out loud She took it to her ear after excusing herself and the very gentle voice of Clarissa came.

Chapter: The beginning of the end Clarissa ran down the lobby with her father following behind her."Mom!" She pushed doors, looked into rooms, when she didn't see her mother anywhere in the room, she went to the next door. "Mom!" She kept yelling. 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. Her eyes opened slowly as she realised slight grunts. Clarissa realised a light huff at least her mother was okay. With the help of her father, she took her mother out to the ambulance. The moment they took her mother, she turned to see Vaxel's. He had his head on the figure that laid covered up on the bed, blood stains all over his body. "Grandma, please come back. You cannot leave me like this, you're leaving just like everyone is. You're not dead, I refuse to believe this." He hadn't even spent a whole day with his grandmother now she was dead.

The maids were dumbfounded and couldn’t even mutter a single excited squeal.“Miss Erica,” one of them managed to say but they didn’t need to say anymore. I already knew and I knew that the rest of us could agree with her.The wedding was supposed to happen in the night, when the moon was first seen in the sky. It was evening. Time had flown by fast. It was already the evening. A few more hours and I would see Dante again. My heart was fluttering in my chest. It was too much.Yte maids packed up their things and left.“We will call you when it is time for the procession.”They left and I was all alone. I sat on the chair and looked out of the window, like I was waiting for the moon in the sky.Thoughts whisked pass in m y mind. All the pain that I had endured, the temptations, the hurt, the war, all of it and now, I

Chapter: Chapter 206Erica:It was afternoon. I hadn’t seen Dante all day. I laughed to myself and sat back on my bed. It was bad luck for the couple to see each other before the wedding. 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..

Chapter: 205Erica:Dante! No!I felt something inside of me change. My eyes closed and I could no longer feel the pain from my wounds.What was this light? Why was it so bright?I opened my eyes. My fur! 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

Chapter: 204Erica:I stood at the front lines. It had been hours, but there was still no sign of Hazan. My heart began to falter. Had he given us the slip? 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! He had it!My breathing quickened. His eyes glowed even brighter. Javier stood beside him with a devilish smile o

Chapter: 203Erica:How could I be so stupid! Javier! It has always been Javier. I should have known!We all stood over the map of the pack and the war plans. I was fighting to keep my wolf inside of me. 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

Chapter: 202Javier:I dashed out and flagged down a taxi. Ever since this evacuation, transportation has been low. Damn that Erica!I jumped in.“Where to, Sir?"“Jasmine Hotel. Step on it!"The driver stepped on the gas and I reeled forward, nearly hitting my head on the chair in front of me.I snarled. I turned back but the road behind me was clear. They weren't coming after me but I wasn't going to bet on it.I had to get to Hazan but it was going to be a little difficult. They had mounted tough security at the borders. Jasmine was the closest place to the South border. I could find my way once I got there.A sigh escaped my lips and I massaged between my brows. Finally, we were one step closer to taking over one of the biggest packs in the region, a step closer to proving to my father that I was worthy of his love, worthy to lead his Empire after him.It didn't take long before I reached Jasmine Hotel. The traffic was light.As I paid the driver, I looked over my shoulder. Why did I feel like
