Chapter: Chapter 135Irene Earlier today, I stormed out of Lucien's presence out of anger. I couldn't believe he was making me feel less than myself. Now, I was fighting with myself and before I could get to where I was headed, I heard some hushed voices. I recognised one of the voices of the person talking as Kael and it was quite surprising how he got here before me. He was such a busy man with a loud mouth, wasn't he?“He’s not going to listen. We will take him, whether he likes it or not,” Kael said and his voice was as sharp as a blade. He couldn't even try to talk a little lower. I froze and came to a stop immediately I heard him speak. My heart pounded so hard that I could barely hear Justin’s reply.“Are you sure about this?” Justin asked, his voice tight. “Lucien will kill us if we act without telling him. This is not something that we should risk.”Kael chuckled darkly and I could tell that he was the mastermind behind this. “Lucien doesn’t need to know. Why would this be his business? If

Chapter: Chapter 134LucienIrrespective of the fact that I wanted to know what exactly was going on between the both of them. I was very mad that Irene had the guts to talk to someone I regarded as my enemy. I couldn't wrap my head around what was happening. Why didn't I ask her this in the first place instead of trying to know why they were about bringing down the place?"You must be kidding me, Irene! Come to think of it. This is who you choose to talk to? Him? And why the hell are you back after telling everyone that you have nothing to do with me. You literally stressed the hell out of me as I looked for you," I asked and the moment the words flew out of my mouth, I regretted the tone I used in talking to her but I didn’t care. The sight of Irene standing there, exchanging words with Kael of all people boiled my blood in a way I couldn’t explain.She turned slowly, calmly, too calmly, like my rage didn’t matter to her. “Why are you talking to me about choices, Lucien? Haven't you made worse ones?

Chapter: Chapter 133Irene"You can go to hell, Kael. And take your arrogance with you.”I meant every single word. I was unable to deal with the mess he had brought upon me. I wasn’t even trembling when I said all that. I wasn't scared this time. I wasn’t afraid. I had held back for too long. I had allowed too many people to walk over me like I was some welcome mat in a dirty place. But not anymore. I won't let anyone step on me because they thought I was easy to override. I have been tolerating a lot of nonsense to begin with but, now. It's over! I'm not doing any of that. I wasn’t the girl who used to bite her tongue to make sure that peace returned to a place. If there was not going to be war then so be it. Let them be a fucking war then! I would gladly heat it up and partake in it. Kael’s eyes narrowed like he couldn’t believe that I was speaking to him that way.He couldn't believe that there would be a switch up any time soon. "You think I care about your partial ownership of whatever deal

Chapter: Chapter 132Irene’s POV"Are you seriously trying to play me, Kael? Again?" I asked and my voice came out low and bitter. I placed my hands on my waist and stepped forward with my eyes locked on him like I was about to throw a dagger through his chest. He had to tell me the truth if that was the case. With the way things were going, I guess he wanted to play with my emotions and end up making me look like a fool. He complained countless times of Silas making him feel less of himself but he was doing the same to me. He was making me question my sanity. “I asked a question, Kael. I don't like the fact that instead of answering me, you stand there laughing at yourself. What do you take me for?” I thundered, shooting an angry glare at him. I wasn’t going to let him twist me around his finger like I was some confused and clueless child.He chuckled and that irritating smirk crawled up his lips. It was a pity that he wasn't taking this as seriously as I thought he would. “Irene, calm down. I’m

Chapter: Chapter 131KaelI called Silas again, and again yet it ignored me.I stared down at my phone and the screen dimmed slowly until it went blank again. For the seventh time that day, I had tried calling him. There was no answer and no message from him. Not even a damn receipt to show that he had seen the last text I sent.At first, I was angry. I was really angry. Not just because he ghosted me, but because he made me feel like a fool. He made me feel like I was chasing someone who no longer saw value in everything we were working on. I had been loyal to Silas, I guess even though I was his boss. When no one trusted him, I did. When no one wanted to work with him, I offered a helping hand. And this was how he repaid me. He repaid me by vanishing?I guess I would have to deal with him my way. On second thought, it might be better to get rid of him without feeling guilty. ***"You always show up when it's least convenient. You know that, right?" I asked immediately if I saw Irene. My stomach

Chapter: Chapter 130IreneI pondered on what my friend said to me for a long time and I had to let her be. If I caused problems from her, I won't be able to forgive myself and she won't forgive me. I needed to steer clear from her. After deciding that I didn't want to cause chaos for my friend, I decided to sneak back into the pack house. That alone was a very risky decision and I didn't know what I was thinking when I thought of that. The only thing now was that I had to be careful and sneak in at night so that the eyes of people won't be on me. I had to avoid people's eyes at all costs. I was going to make sure I get answers to my questions from Lucien. Whether or not he decided to tell me. He has no choice! How could he do this to me? How could he be so comfortable leaving me in the dark?***Night came in as fast as possible and I quickly moved to the pack house. When I got there, I stopped at the back door which is always open for the mates to go in and go out without disturbing anyone. I ra
