Nick POVOf all the places in this massive country! Why did she and her dad have to choose this particular one? But then the same can be said of me. Many other towns would be happy to have a large nature park like the one I was going to build here.As I walked quietly into the hall leading to the ba
“Mhm? Yeah, of course,” she nodded.Then he reached for the wine and started to fill her glass. I imagine snapping that wrist in two and had to blink repeatedly to erase the unwelcome thought.“You're such a good employer, Mr. Colt,” I kept a grin plastered on my face as the older male lifted his ga
Sara looked scared as she rushed towards a beat-up Hyundai. She started to open the door when she froze. Her senses must've told her that someone was watching because she turned around abruptly. Thank Goddess for the large pickup truck driving past sluggishly. She would've seen me across the road.W
I feel a lump rise in my throat as I watched her get out of the car. The fact that she isn't married didn't mean there wasn't someone in her life. At least, it looks like there's a child.Other cars are parked at the school's driveway as children race out to meet their mothers or fathers. Most of th
Sara POVI couldn’t see my father during lunch as planned, but I was so glad the day was finally over. We would talk as soon as He's done with this round of customers."Jeremy gave me too much work when we got back from the business meeting," I explained. "I feel like he suspects something."My dad
Nick turned his back on me and stomped back to the SUV, parked some feet from the truck. Jake followed quickly behind him. My heart continued to hammer in my chest as I watched them both.He opened the driver’s side and sat down. But he didn’t attempt to start the engine. Instead, he seemed to be ba
As my son greeted Nick, his face immediately transformed into a shock that mirrored my one. Except his eyes were colored with joyful triumph. Two men approached the porch from behind him.I grabbed Alex’s hand, forcing it back down. “What did I say about talking to strangers?”“I saw him yesterday.
“You were going to run away with my child?" he began. "I should make you pay dearly for that! It's bad enought that -"“I already told you. He’s not yours!” I cut him off.“Cut the crap, Sara! The boy recognized me-”“Alex is a good-natured, friendly kid. That's he waved at you. It doesn’t mean he k
The next day began like another ordinary day. The events of last night returned the moment I came awake. It felt like a bittersweet dream rather than a real occurrence, though I was sure it happened. I resolved to put it out of my mind as I went about my day. "Eyes on your goal, Tess," I mumbled
Tessa POV My mind was blank from the shock of what was happening. My body, however, had no concept of shock at the moment. All it knew was that my face was cupped in Richard Wolfe's large hands, and he was kissing me. His grip was hard, and the kiss started harsh. The will to push him off was non
I took a sip from my glass and refocused on the girl before me. Perfect body. This should erase all images of the stray wolf from my head once and for all. Peyton Day. That omega was brought in with her. According to him, the two of them did serve the Fox's household. Two orphans. "Will you lik
Richard POV The Avalanche Night Club was not directly affiliated with Reigns Group. It was a child of one of the pack's retail subsidiaries. Nick always hated the place because she-wolves worked there sometimes. The type of females that tripped over themselves at the sight of an Alpha or any othe
"She had to start work immediately cuz she kept making trouble! I'm not sure where they took her, but she should be back before nightfall." "I see. Thanks." What kind of trouble? Tessa was a docile she-wolf. Was it outside the pack or within. Looking for her was bad enough. He didn't want the Liv
Kevin Kevin Fox always comsidered himself a proud male of worth. Any other wolf, for instance, Curtis Burns, would have continued to pretend they didn't know Tessa Nile. Not only was she of low birth, but she belonged to the class of wolves that people like him didn't publicly associate with. How
"I'm not a spy, Chief," I said earnestly. "You saw me that day, remember?" "Which day? Same day that warrior attacked you over a scent blocker?" "He didn't attack me because of the scent blocker. He propositioned me before then and I refused. He attacked me earlier that day too. Kev, I mean... the
Tessa POV My fears dissolved when I saw Vivi and Peyton emerged from their rooms too. Either the two also did something wrong or I had nothing fear. The bags they carried meant that I was not the only one getting moved out of here. I avoided looking directly at Richard as much as I could. When my
Morning came sooner than I wanted it to. Though it was a new day, I was filled with anxiety about the result of yesterday's errors. I had very little sleep and had only began to doze off when the first light of dawn poured in through the small window. I heard whispers outside as a male came to relie
