GERTRUDE POVI was getting ready to go to the dining room to have my dinner when I heard a knock on the door.I checked my door camera, and it was Rex outside. I sighed.Ever since Rex found a bug in my quarters, I have been quite careful. I can't begin to imagine why someone would even plant a bug in here.I have two people I suspect, but I just wasn't sure which of them it might be.I opened the door, and he came inside. I thought he came over to deliver some message from Agnar, but then he sat down before I could even offer him a chair.It was strange because I and Rex have never been in a room together except on occasion when we plotted to kick that stupid wench out of the pack house and anything official. Aside from that, we maintain a beta-Luna relationship, and that's all."Are you okay?" I asked him, trying to read his facial expressions, but as usual, it was his normal face—nothing off."I need some advice," he finally opened up."Okay," I replied, trying to figure out what t
GERTRUDE'S POVFor a few seconds, the world stood still as I watched, dumbstruck, wondering what was going on right now. "Alpha!" I heard people screaming, but the most predominant voice was Celines; she was crying and wailing while clutching onto Agnar. It wasn't just up to a month we buried Rex, now Agnar is in a critical condition. "Excuse me, coming through," Cole yelled as he maneuvered his way to the front, where Agnar lay unconscious. "Help me get him inside," he yelled at one of the guards. I was watching dumbfounded all this while.Two other guards came, and they lifted Agnar off the ground and laid him down in a room. "Get the pack, doctor!" I screamed at one of the guards, who rushed off immediately. The other guards tried keeping the pack member away from the room. I wasn't the biggest fan of Agnar, and heck, I hated him, but if I was going to remain the Luna of the pack, Agnar was my best shot at it. I wanted to grab Celine from across the room and mop the goddamn
"Mmmhh, I am so tired right now," I groaned, stretching out my body while in Hayden's arms. "You are? When we haven't gotten to the climax just yet," he said, smiling mischievously. "What is he talking about?" I asked myself while looking at him in confusion. We have been fucking all through the night and had gone a few rounds this morning, and he is talking about climax. Before I could say a word, he grabbed me by the waist, tickling me. I giggled while skimming under his touch. He tickled for a while and then stopped, accessing my cheeks as I continued laughing, then kissing my forehead, making me flushed and my cheeks red. "I love you," he whispered into my ear. Wetness pulled up in my core, and I just wanted to mount him all over again and ride him till will went insane together. It wasn't the first time he told me those exact words, but they seemed to have a good effect on me every single time he said them to me like they were the first time I heard them. He fumbled with my
AGNAR'S POVI walked out of Gertrude clutching onto the bottle. I didn't know what to make of it, and I couldn't convince myself of the obvious, hence why I went to Gertrude to talk some sense into her. But even that didn't work because I was still in denial. She was my best friend, and there was no way she would do what Gertrude was insinuating. I stormed back into the room, pacing. I wanted someone to pay so badly for the pains he or she put me through, but it couldn't be Celine. The more I thought about it, the more crazy it seemed. I was about to crash the bottle on the floor when the door flew open. "Agnar, is everything okay?" She asked with a concerned expression. Looking at her right now, how could anyone even accuse her of poisoning me? "Nothing, just stretching my arm," I lied. "Oh, you should be resting; we don't want anything happening to you," she said, rushing over to me. I quickly snuck the bottle into my pocket, and I smiled. "I'm fine now," I said to her, gentl
"What is the problem?" I asked Hayden immediately, and he dropped the phone. "That was Ben," he said to me. "Okay, what did he say?""Agnar's stepmother is dead." "Oh wow, let me guess, did someone get tired of hearing her stupid voice and decide to snuff the life out of her?" I asked him. "On the contrary, I think she got tired of her own voice and killed herself." "Oh, that's a crazy turn of events.""Tell me about it" I blurted out. I have never really pictured Gertrude as someone who will take her own life; it sounded a little far-fetched, but then again, people are unpredictable. I had always thought she would die by my hands, but thank goodness she spared me the stress. "You're coming?" I asked Hayden. "Yeah sure" We both came downstairs to hear Tessa having her music lessons with the teacher. I was relieved, as I couldn't have her giving me a weird look and making some funny sounds she heard me make. Tessa could be a handful sometimes. I smiled when I saw Sarah made q
AGNAR'S POVI was literally in shock, wondering if this all could be a dream; she wasn't moving on the stretcher, nor did she even look my way. Gertrude wasn't the best mom; I mean, dad brought her home a few months after my mom died. I resented her so much while growing up, but then I stopped hating her when I was grown and just endured her. But I never pictured her a murder, I noticed she has being in so much pain after Rex passed that she had to poison me for sending him to his death. This is absurd, I mean, why would she want to kill me? Even if Gertrude hated me for sending Rex to his death, why would she confess to stealing the school money meant for a project?"It doesn't make sense." "Baby, take heart," Celine said, holding my hands. "How did this happen?" I asked her."The guards found her early this morning dead on the bed and clutching onto this bottle." She said, raising a small bottle, that was wrapped in a zip-lock bag. "The same," I whispered... She didn't plant
DEAN'S POV"Bloody Hell, what on earth is going on here?" Wiley barked, breaking the door from its hinges the moment he barged into the shabby meeting room downstairs. Wiley looked around the room to see all his officials sitting at the table, with Dean sitting at the head of the table. Most of them were scared for their lives as Wiley's cruelty superseded him, but some who knew Dean was his right-hand man, the one who perpetrated his cruelty, weren't moved by his screams. "Traitors!" he screamed at them. "Ernest, I thought we were family; I gave you everything," he barked at one of the officials, and when he didn't move he commanded the guards to arrest every one of them. "Wiley, Wiley, what are you doing awake?" Dean teased him. and the other broke into laughter. Wiley partied all night with his whore until this morning and was passed out in his room. When Eli the snitch, as he was nicknamed, heard of the meeting downstairs, he rushed to wake up Wiley. Dean eyeballed Eli and h
"What do you mean by that?" I asked and looked behind me to see if they were still on our asses. "Eyes on the road!" Hayden yelled.But I looked anyway; I almost screamed when I saw three SUVs, speeding towards us. "Why didn't you say they were closing in on us?" I angrily yelled. "I didn't want to put pressure on you with your condition." he shrugged. "What condition? I'm pregnant, not hypertensive!" I yelled and changed gear immediately. "Kay, we want to survive in one piece, not in pieces," he blurted out, clutching onto the seatbelt. But I didn't say a word to him as I needed to concentrate. "I think we have lost them; you can reduce the speed," he said, looking back and still clutching the seatbelt. "I don't think so," I said, gesturing for him to look at what was coming at the front. "Shit, I hate this!" he yelled. I punched a button, and the small part of the roof gave way. "Do the honors!" I said to him that he quickly took the gun out of the pigeonhole and, standing
