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
Nick POVMy eyes would not leave the back of Richard's head. In another situation, he would've known I was watching him. His senses would've picked it up if they weren't clouded from touching Sara.I kept smoothing the child's back to calm my own rising temper. Different thoughts play in my mind as m
Sara POVThe name of the place is spelt "Rain resort," according to the little paper in my hand. It definitely belonged to Nick. As I sped on behind them, I realized how far in the outskirt of Orphic town I've come. A precise forty-minutes drive from our house. Which means the resort is only ten min
"Oh, I want, Sweetness! I do want now. You don't just get to keep him to yourself!" He's sitting too close. If I tried to get up, I'd bump my face against his. So I remained where I am as I resume my screaming. “Alex! Alex! Baby, are you in-” The yelling got cut off as Nick's lips covered mine in
Nick’s POVI carried the child back upstairs, rocking him as he screamed for his mommy."She'll be back. I promise," I whispered soothingly again and again. Moments later, he started to relax. Soon, he was truly calm, and then I laid him gently on the bed.Jake stood, watching. It felt like he was t
Sara POVHope and confusion filled my mind as Nick spoke. I stared at him open-mouthed, not knowing how to respond. Does he know the implications of what he's asking here?“What?” I gasped.Is he out of his mind? What about members of the Forest Moon? What if they see me with him? Worse, what if the
Luna ReignMeanwhile, in Reign Towers, Los Angeles,Elise Reign is worried. She has started to see the signs that her son, the alpha, would break off his latest engagement like he did the previous ones.He has been betrothed to three women in the last four years. That wasn't good for their family im
"I'm here because of her." Kevin's tone grew serious as he went on, "You see, yesterday, she was supposed to report at my house. Then I learned that you needed her to run some errands outside. I was pretty shocked." So you stalked her all the way to the tower, huh? He hesitated before continuing
Richard POV "Who did you say?" I didn't mean for my tone to take on an edge. I could feel Tessa's odd look as the servant replied, "Mister Fox. The chief-elder's nephew." The irritation rose inside me like a tidal wave. Kevin Fox? In my house? How dare him come here? I considered telling Tyres
The butler turned around and urged me back inside. As we reentered the living room, I was about to ask if this was Mrs Wolfe's house when something distracted all of my senses. My eyes moved in the direction of the distraction. Richard Wolfe emerged at the top of the stairs, climbing down leisurely
Tessa POV I had not the slightest interest in what was in Kevin's note, so I didn’t even try to beg Tina to let me see it. He was partly to blame for all of my problems. If he hadn't tried to get me back into his employ like old times, maybe, just maybe I wouldn't have been in a hurry to run away.
Kevin was appalled. "Listen to me, mother. Stay the hell out of s£× life, what the hell!" "There's nothing to be embarrassed about. You need this and there's nothing wrong with that." As his mother spoke, his gaze unwittingly moved to the one without a mask. She pushed the jacket over her shoulder
Kevin After that episode with the wrongful warning, Kevin had always suspected that Richard Wolfe didn't really like him. Yesterday, he became sure that this was the case. He had gone over all of their interactions again and again and still could not determine why? The first time they met, the
Richard POV I grabbed a pillow, putting it over my head as my mother opened the door and entered uninvited. Dawn had arrived, judging from the light seeping through the curtain. I had barely gotten any sleep. "What's this I hear, Richie?" "What did you hear, mother?" I drawled. "You know what!"
Her words made me stop, then moved close so she wouldn't miss a syllable from what I had to say next. "Miss Johnson, here's the whole truth about me and Tessa, the servant. We had s£×!" Her face went white. Her eyes brightened as she asked, "So you lied?" "Nah..." I shook my head. "You a
"It was during the fight with the other servant," Tina replied, taking a step back. "The Vivi girl insulted her mother, and... and Miss Johnson was there. We all tried to break off the fight. We tried to restrain the two girls. But not Miss Johnson. She hit Tessa Nile. Struck her in the face. Twi
