The sight of the joggers had me frozen on the spot until the sound of flesh slapping on flesh grew too appalling to bear. As I started to back away, Miss Suarez lifted her head and our gazes met. I couldn't decide if the sound that came out of her in that moment was shock or another moan. I turned
Sara POV The next morning, I was determined to be normal. It was a new day. Yesterday never happened as far as I was concerned. It was also time to get back home. Thankfully, my duties for the day were at the site instead of the office. I decided that I would trust Nick for now and not worry ab
Oh and let me say this so you're not caught off guard. I'm going to the city to sort out basic stuff. I'll be back soon. And the next time I fly out of here, I'll take you with me! Both of you!" "No you won't! What do you even mean?" I asked. He started to walk away as he replied, "You'll see. N
Cassie White As Cassie expected, the Alpha didn't call her to set up a date. She waited till sundown before reaching out to him. As she strode into the massive, luxurious lobby of Reigns Tower, she was about to tap the call button on his number when his glorious scent floated her way. He stood
Cassie was waiting anxiously. She could sense our heated conversation. I was too furious to say anything more to her. Reaching for my phone, I started to type a text to Jake immediately. Cassie’s little public announcement must never see the light of day. If it had, he needed to take down the new
Nick POV As my mother advanced, Cassie looked like she would cower. But she maintained her poise with her head lowered. Controling her breathing had grown difficult now. Her chest rose and fell involuntarily. "Tell her what I mean, Miss White, why don't you?" "I-I'm not shh-sure, Alpha," she st
"Mother, let the warriors take it from here, please." I grabbed her arm, but she yanked free, landing another hard blow Cassie’s jaw. Deciding I didn’t want to be the one to pause the beating, I signalled to Mae to do what she intended. It was a struggle. "Luna, we'll take it from here. Please!
Nick POV "It's on Wolve-net," Jake announced as soon as I met with him. "That means some pack members already saw it. I've prepared a statement for that. Also, the news of Cassie's arrest- “But Sara won't see it, will she? I cut him off. Most omegas didn’t go near that part of the dark web. Th
"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
