Chapter: Chapter 8Damien's POV[The Morning Of The Interview] I flipped to the last page of the document and scrawled my signature onto the indicated space before snapping the file shut and pushing it awayI reclined in my chair, deciding to take a short break. A quick glance at the wall clock told me that it was a few minutes to 9'0 clock in the morning which meant that I had been working for one hour since I arrived at my office at 6'0 clock.I sighed and rubbed my temples, I had jumped out of bed after getting tired of waking up throughout the night then falling into a restless sleep only to startle awake again.I just couldn't sleep peacefully, every time I managed to fall asleep; I would hear my father's voice in my head, reminding me that the two weeks I had been given was getting closer and closer with each passing day.I still had no idea what to do or how to get out of the situation but one thing I hadn't changed my mind on was my decision to not marry Elena BassettLike my dad had said,

Chapter: Chapter 7Damien's POV "Because...." he replied in that familiar rich timbre of his voice "It's time for you to get married"I blinked and tilted my head as I arched a brow at him "I beg your pardon?"He took two steps forward and was now standing beside my desk, the stoic gaze he levelled me with never wavering"You heard me, Damien" he said matter-of-factI scoffed and chuckled wryly "What's this about me getting married all of a sudden?""It's not spontaneous, when you were made acting CEO of the company I told you the condition you need to meet in order to become the REAL head of this enterprise and you agreed that you would do it when the time comes" he uttered and I frowned slightly as I racked my brain to try and remember if we had actually ever had that conversationMy memories came up blank for the first few seconds before it suddenly hit me. It had happened two years ago, in his home office. I had just been appointed acting CEO of the company and we had decided to have a little fa

Chapter: Chapter 6Damien's POV [The Morning After The One Night Stand]I reached out and twisted the shower's knob, cutting off the stream of warm water before stepping out of the cubicle. I grabbed a towel, wrapped it around my waist and walked slowly to the mirror hanging in a corner of the bathroom before wiping off the steam from the surface so I could see my reflectionAfter a few sharp wipes, my reflection stared blankly back at me and I stared back.I had seen my face countless times throughout my life but every time I did, I always had the same bored, unfazed and unimpressed reactionIt was really just a face. Nothing special Yet many, especially women, tended to gush and melt whenever they saw it It may be just a face but it definitely has made my life easier in certain areas. For example, getting women into my bed was VERY easy All I needed to do was tilt my head to the side a little, stare deeply into their eyes and smirk and they would literally become putty in my hands So the face def

Chapter: Chapter 5Camilla's POV"Your mother is sick, and it's cancer"I blinked once, then twiceI sat very still and a heavy silence fell over usThe young doctor stared at me with slightly raised brows, an expectant look. He was expecting me to say something, to react to what he had just said but how could I when I was still in shock?I couldn't believe my ears, I needed him to repeat what he said so I could be sure because I probably misheard I forced my mouth open "Pardon? What did you say, doctor?"He heaved a quiet sigh of relief when I finally spoke"I know it's quite shocking, Miss Parker but your mother is really sick with cancer"I sucked in a sharp breath. I hadn't misheard. My mother was sick, WITH CANCERTears welled up in my eyes and my voice trembled as I asked the next question "What kind of cancer?""Breast cancer"I inhaled a shaky breath "What stage?"The young doctor sighed "Fortunately, it's still kind of in the early stage but with your mother's advanced age; her condition is wo

Chapter: Chapter 4 Camilla's POV"Camilla, my office, now" Jack gritted out and marched back into his office without closing the door "Fuck" I swore under my breath as I walked past Diana who was watching me with a look of pity along with the rest of my co-workers.I stepped into Jack's office and shut the door behind me before slowly turning to face him He was leaning on his desk with his arms folded across his chest as he watched me intently"Good morning, Mr Monroe" I greeted and he narrowed his eyes at me"There's a clock behind you, Camilla. Look at it and tell me what the time is" he uttered and I sighed tiredly "I know that I'm late, Mr Monroe there's no need to do that"For some reason, my patience with him felt like it was barely hanging on by a thread today and would snap any second nowMaybe it was because of the throbbing headache caused by my over indulgence in alcohol last night along with the rigorous activities performed on the handsome stranger's bed.My breath quickened slightly at

Chapter: Chapter 3Camilla's POVI stood transfixed for at least ten seconds, eyes wide and mouth agape as I stared back at the extremely attractive male stranger who was standing a couple of feet away from me in all his tall glory.He was gorgeous.He looked to be about six feet and some inches tall. He was broad-shouldered and had a perfect muscular body that was neither too much or too small. His stature made him look untouchable in the sleek, fitted dark blue suit he had on.His inky black hair was pushed back which made his face stand out even more. His skin was smooth and literally glowed, making me wonder if he was even a real person and that I wasn't hallucinating from how drunk I was.Then there were his eyes; they were the most beautiful combination of blue and green I had ever seen. I didn't know how I was able to catch everything despite the dim lighting in the roomI couldn't remember the last time I had found a man so attractive, I was sure that I hadn't even been this attracted to Ryan wh

How was your nap?" She greeted with a smile and I puffed out a breath "It was fine but I almost overslept. Where is Martha? Does she already have Mr O'Brien ready to go?" I asked"Yes, she does. They're in the living room, would you like to have something to eat before you leave?" She offered and I shook my head"No, we'll eat when we return from the walk. B

Scarlett rasped as she fanned herself with her hands frantically Alessia rolled her eyes at her "And yet you all call ME the drama queen"I laughed heartily "Stay calm, Scarlett. There's absolutely nothing to be nervous about"She scoffed at my words "Nothing you say? We're practically getting married!"I laughed again "It's just a mating ceremony with a wedding theme"Scarlett rolled her eyes "Oh please, it's practically a wedding, a specially decorated venue with an aisle, guests and an official to join us with our mates.

Isobelle uttered and Scarlett's eyes widened"Yes! That's exactly why I'm nervous!" She cried Alessia, Isobelle and I laughed "I'm not nervous because we'll be walking down the aisle togeth

Chapter: Chapter Seventy-six Greyson's POV I strode into the tower that overlooked the western gateAlmost all the warriors in the pack had already gathered there with Dean and Peyton at the forefrontThey all bowed to me as I walked past them and over to Dean who was standing in front of the computer monitors that was displaying the live surveillance video that was being captured by the cameras attached to the western gate "Greyson, you're here" Dean uttered when he noticed me "Where are they? Show me" I uttered as I glanced from one screen to the other"That one" Dean pointed to the monitor in the middle and I leaned forward as I peered at itEven with the darkness of midnight, I could clearly see unmistakeable figures of at least 20 rogues standing just a feet in front of the gate and two others at the forefrontOne of the figures at the front looked like that of a woman while the other definitely belonged to a man"It's definitely her" I muttered and Dean nodded"Yep. So what do we do now?" He asked and I

Chapter: Chapter Seventy-five Harvey's POV"I'm going to kill her" Ravina swore with determination and my eyes widened slightly"I'm going to kill that bitch in the slowest and most painful way possible!" She shrieked with a blazing look in her eyes as she stared off into the distance I waved a hand in front of her face to get back her attention and her eyes slowly returned to mine"That's fine, if you want to avenge your family's death then we won't stop you but I just want you to understand one thing. We really aren't the bad guys in this story, Eliana is the villain here and I'm sorry that we kidnapped you and brought you here against your will but that's because we really need your help" I implored and she exhaled a shaky breath that I knew was an attempt to calm herself"What do you need from me?" She asked"The poison you created, it's infected my mate who also happens to be the Alpha of this pack and we really need you to concoct the permanent cure. I know that you're the only one who can do it and that's

Chapter: Chapter Seventy-four Greyson's POVPeyton and I stopped before the northern gate where Dean and Wesley happened to be waitingI eyed the towering gate, still not believing that there were rogues who were willing to call a truce waiting on the other side.Dean walked up to me, holding a walkie-talkie in his hand "You ready to do this? Should I tell them to open the gate?" He asked and I nodded"Yes but how many of us are going out? There shouldn't be too many people so they won't get scared and run off" I replied"Relax, I thought of that. It's just going to be me, Peyton, that damn traitor because - he's the only one they trust - and you" he uttered and I grunted in approval"That's good. Tell them to open up so we can get this over with"Dean nodded before raising the walkie-talkie to his mouth and pressing down on the button"Open her up, boys. We're going through" he into the receiver to the men up in the tower who controlled the gate A crackling sound pierced the air from the walkie-talkie before a

Chapter: Chapter Seventy-three Harvey's POVI watched as some of the colour drained from Greyson's face as he continued to stare at the drawing of the red-haired woman I had done the very next day after I had dreamt of her for the first timeMy brows furrowed slightly as I tilted my head in confusion at his reactionWhy did he look like he had just seen a ghost?"Greyson" I called and he flinched slightly before looking up at me "What's wrong? You suddenly turned almost as white as a sheet"He exhaled a deep breath and closed his eyes before opening them again "You.... You've been dreaming about her? This woman?"I nodded "Yes and I've never seen her before in my life. I have no idea who she is so that's what makes it kind of confusing. I want to know why I keep dreaming about her and just WHO she is"He swallowed thickly before slowly returning my sketchbook to me and I took it from him while watching him with narrowed eyes."I know who she is" he said suddenly and my eyes widened"You....do?!" I spluttered in sho
