“He needs to see my father first!” she replied. I was going to protest, but Alex yelled,“Gwanpa, gwanpa!”“You know I never stopped Sebastian from visiting his grandson, Sara.”“It’s your house," she seethed. "He detests you! So no. He won't visit.”“You need to watch your tone, or there'll be no
I could not make sense of what my beta had just said. I was trying to fake interest too, so I asked,"What do you mean I'm being charged?" "This is a summon, Nick!" He held out the envelope in his hands.The only thing disturbing about the bit of newsflash was the look on my beta’s face."Jake, sit
I did not realize I had moved if not for Jake’s attempt to restrain me. My beta was almost as strong as me. I felt his strength as he tried with all his might to make me sit back down. “Please, Nick. Sit down. Please!” he begged, forcing me back on the chair. ‘If you act out, it’ll get harder. Eve
‘Threats would only push her farther away, Nick.’ 'Really?' I asked before whipping my head around. Jake was still in the room. Why the hell was he still in the room? He stood leaning against the wall near the door.When I returned my gaze to Sara, she was watching me with horror. The hatred was a
Sara POVI didn't hear from Nick or his beta after I left the penthouse. On the evening of the hearing, I borrowed my dad's truck to get Alex from school.As soon as my son saw the truck, he announced, "Janice won't be here.""That's right," I replied. "How did you know?""Daddy told me. He called
I nodded at the human female who looked about my age.“I see.”No cause for alarm, I told myself. But this wasn’t how it was supposed to be. It can't be right for him to just show up at my son’s school to pick him up. I should ask my lawyer. I rushed out of the school, impatiently waving at a cab.
“I see.” I hung up without another word.She’s not the only lawyer in town. Also, she was right about doing the important bits.Nick wouldn’t get whatever reaction he was waiting for, I promised myself. Turning back around, I pushed the elevator button to leave when I heard my son's voice."Mommy."
What the bloody hell was Megan still doing in Orphic? Didn't she leave with Nick's mom? And she was here in this resort. Which meant she and Nick... That was still going on, wasn't it?Okay, it’s none of my business. I've moved past that betrayal a long time ago. These thoughts didn't stop my stoma
It was hard to clear the air while avoiding telling him that the date at Meat cafe was an attempt to use Kevin to escape. The same way I tried to use him. "So you didn't want to be in his house, that's why you came to see me for another seduction." A part of me was glad that he figured that out o
Tessa POV The walls were too thick to hear the conversation between Richard and Kevin. But it was easy to guess why the latter had come here. He wanted me to report for work in his household and was here to get the Chief Gamma to make it happen. What would Richard's response be? If he knew that wa
"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!"
