“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
"Oh, yeah," she nodded eagerly. How could the Luna entertain this? I continued on my way, stomping past them. "I'm going back to work!" "Me too," Jake said. Thank Goddess, Tessa couldn't hear us from up there. Once we reached the door, I halted as a thought occured. What if my mother begged Sar
Richard POV "Are you here to see my Luna?" Nick asked Mrs Wolfe. He still held Sara's hand as they continued down the stairs. Then his cellphone began to ring. "Oh, yes, Alpha," she replied. "Although, I was looking for Richie, too. I heard he came here." "Is it urgent? I'm afraid you may have
Richard POV Tessa was still sitting with her head bowed when Nick opened the door and came out. I could tell how scared she was. I wanted to go in at once, but the Alpha was in the way. The doorway suddenly felt crowded as Jake followed behind seconds later. "Do you want me in there with you?" As
"You called me Alpha. I'm not your Alpha." I kept my head down "Do you know how he died?" He asked. "In battle." "Do you know who killed him?" The calmness slipped off his tone. "You? I think..." "That's right," he remarked. "I killed Lazarus Kai. Your birth father." The room went sile
Tessa POV Alpha Nick did not show up the same day as Jake. I sat, stood, paced about the room waiting for him. It's not like I was eager to see the Alpha who considered me his enemy. In fact, it was the opposite. I would skip that particular one-on-one if I had a choice. I only needed him to come
I asked other questions relating to Tessa and her childhood. His answers didn't give me the slightest comfort. I didn't know what questions could possibly generate answers that could ease the ache in my heart. Maybe nothing could relieve me. I wanted to see her desperately. But I also didn't want t
Richard POV When I reached the apartment block where Tessa used to live, the voices coming from the building made me stop. "I'm not surprised at all," said a not-so-familiar voice. "I always get a different vibe around her." "Lemme tell you what's different about her vibe, Koda," replied anothe
The Beta's face remained stoic as he regarded me. Then he said, "Look, don't tell anyone I told you this. We haven't found any evidence that you want revenge, so you're good. For now. No one's going to hurt you. Every wolf from your pack is being questioned just like you. They're all being held on
Tessa POV Three days had gone by since the Alpha and Beta took me into custody. Gamma Richard might as well have bound my hands when he led me out of his house that night. I had not set eyes on him since then. When they were bringing me to this cell, I considered mindlinking him. But because of th
