I heaved a sigh of relief when I saw him walk through that door, looking so lethal. Sheila tried escaping, but I quickly shot her in the leg, while Hayden and his men devoured every last one of them except Zack."You keep destroying my stuff, Hayden. I'm going to make you pay," he barked, looking at the damage done to the property."I'm counting on it, Zack; you should have stayed gone when you ran, but you dare show your stupid face here," he barked at him."That throne is mine," Zack yelled at him."Says the illegitimate son; go blame your mother if you need someone to blame," Hayden yelled back at him."How dare you!" Zack barked. I heard from a reliable source that Zack was the first son of the former Lycan king, but it was just meant to be a fling. Zack's mom seduced the then-Lycan king, who wasn't married at the time, and he slept with her.The Fling lasted for a while, but the Lycan king found his mate and kicked Zack's mom out of the palace, but she was pregnant at the momen
The smell of water and forest trees is driving me nuts. But then I felt like I wasn't alone. Before I saw him and his minions, I had walked right into the trap. They were here for my reckoning, but I was not going to be an easy kill. Before I could say another word, he grabbed me by the throat. While trying to stab me, I pushed him back, twisting his hand. I took the blade from him and buried the silver blade in his stomach, but then I felt the other assassins surrounding me. I knew what came next; I had played this game before, but this time I was the prey, not the predator, and I knew how the story usually ends for the prey, even if one is as dangerous as I am. Another tried to grab me. I quickly ripped one of his hands off me and swiftly somersaulted to the far end, another charged at me and then ripped off the head of the next assassin who charged at me, watching his lifeless body fall to the ground. I was surrounded, but I was not going to beg like a rat; instead, I would die
"Kay!" "What?""Your hands?" he said, pointing at my hands. I took a glance when he quickly walked past me."What are you doing?" I asked Cain, who was busy searching the whole room with his silver blade in his hands, ready as always to plunge it into anyone. He must have thought that there was an intruder in my room. No one dares come close to the base unless they have a death sentence. "Is someone here? Do they have a gun?" He whispered. "There is no one here." I tried reassuring him. "Then why are your hands stained with blood?" he asked, pointing at my bloody hands. "Um, this, I... I forgot to wash up when I got in yesterday night.""You forgot?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. "Don't judge; I was too tired, ok?"Cain is one of the wolves who is very distrustful and checks every piece of information being passed to him. I had to make sure he believed me, as I didn't want to give him anything to bite on and start researching. We nicknamed him the Hellhound because he never lets
I always thought I was fast, but the Lycans are in another league altogether. I stood up while staring at his surprise. My wolf kept pushing me to acknowledge my mate. He was tall and domineering with his dreamy gray eyes staring right into my soul. I had no idea what this could mean, Agnar is my mate but why I feel the same attraction towards this lycan beats me. I could tell he could feel the attraction but thank goddess I cloaked my scent, this could have been a disaster. "How dare you stare the prince in the eyes, pay your respect!" The man from behind him yelled at me, I quickly shot him lasers from my eyes and my palm curled up into a fist, ready to charge at him. "You dare disrespect the prince" he barked at me, his hands immediately turned to claws within a split second and aimed at my heart, my fist tightened as I was ready to defend myself, but a pair of firm hands interrupted the fight. He gripped his man's hand tightly. "Stand down!" the Lycan prince barked at him.
"I guess you feel better now," he said, gently walking towards me. I barely escaped having been marked yesterday night; I know the possessive prick would be eager to brand me his. "Damn!" I internally cursed; if only I had seen him earlier, I would pretend to be sick or dead if that was what it would take to keep his canine away from me. "Not really" l replied "Aren't you supposed to be out right now?" I asked before I could even realize it. "I decided to come check up on you.""Oh," I said in a low tone, glad he didn't catch up. "What is your name, pup?" he asked. I wanted to kick him in the eyes for calling me a pup but held back in my anger. "Katya, Katya Paw," I replied. "Kay, I love it," he said, smiling. "Whore," I cursed, if only those smiles could hide your sins. "Why were you here last night?" he asked yet again. Of course, the same old questions, "I went out hunting for my dinner and lost track of time. I got lost in the woods on my way back, and here I was," I said
"What are you doing out here?" I was startled, but I knew who the voice belonged to."I needed some fresh air; I was feeling choked up in the room." I turned to see the tall figure standing beside him, Beta Rex. He was one wolf that was hard to read; he was Agnar's father's Beta; and was just a few years older than Agnar.I heard he became a beta at the age of 17 when his father died, and he is one hell of a beta; he is more like Agnar's confidante when he needs an adviser. which makes me wonder if he was the one who wanted Agnar dead. I mean, he and Gertrude are the ones who stand to gain the most if Agnar is out of the way; maybe he even orchestrated the betrayal and my death, since I was in his way also.But I have no evidence against him; if he was indeed the missing piece, he sure hid pretty well."You shouldn't be out here alone; come, I will walk you," Agnar said, grabbing my hand. He mindlinked something to Rex, and he turned to leave immediately.We walked in total silence. I
I have been speechless all day, wondering how Gertrude figured her way out of the murder. It is now so clear that she has people working for her in every corner you turn. I had played this game before, and I lost. It's time to level the field before the times turn on me again. I am a wolf assassin, and I have been one for years. It's about time I started acting like one. I listened to Agnar's breathing and he was soundly asleep facing the other side of the bed, He is a light sleeper, but when he is stressed out, he wouldn't get up, even if you played a drum on his head. I got up, grabbed my leather clothes, a black sweater with a hood, which was neatly hanging, and I sneaked into the bathroom to change. The minute I was done, I tiptoed out of the room, and avoiding the cameras, I made my way out of the pack house. I found the spot where I hid my bike and the bag. I strapped the bag to my bag while I sneaked past the two guards arguing about who had the bigger dick. "Men and their
I was basking in the euphoria of the sunlight after it rained all through yesterday. I guess even the weather is quite aware that a witch came by the pack house; she stuck herself like gum on Agnar while playing the pity card each time she couldn't have her way. Watching her breathe the same air I breathe makes me want to lose it and snuff the life out of her. I find myself fantasizing about different ways I could kill her; call me a psycho, but she brought out the worst in me. I never asked for any of this; I just wanted to love and be loved by my mate, but I guess even that is too much to ask with Celine in the picture. I had made plans with Agnar to go on a date later today, but here I am sitting alone at the restaurant, looking like a rejected cat. Well, it's all good though; at least I have all the time to dissect the record from Gertrude Quarter over and over again. I wanted some peace to listen to the feeds, but since Celine showed up, she is just everywhere at fucki
I heaved a sigh of relief when I saw him walk through that door, looking so lethal. Sheila tried escaping, but I quickly shot her in the leg, while Hayden and his men devoured every last one of them except Zack."You keep destroying my stuff, Hayden. I'm going to make you pay," he barked, looking at the damage done to the property."I'm counting on it, Zack; you should have stayed gone when you ran, but you dare show your stupid face here," he barked at him."That throne is mine," Zack yelled at him."Says the illegitimate son; go blame your mother if you need someone to blame," Hayden yelled back at him."How dare you!"

It had been a week after the whole drama, and things were finally getting back to normal. Tessa had a hard time adjusting, but she is fine now. My real parents moved in with us, and we have been bonding well. I'm in my last trimester and it could happen any time now, honestly, I'm kind of scared. Hayden went after Sheila and Zack, but that sneaky bastard got wind of it and escaped the country. As satisfying as it would have been to watch him die, all the same, he is out of our lives now till he shows his ugly head again. The only problem is that Hayden increased our security again; each time there is an attack on any of us, he ends up getting more security. It's frustrating watching the whole property filled with more security than actual occupants. I was allowed to go out before now, but these days I'm just stuck in here like I'm in prison. Hayden wasn't at home, and I was getting tired of staying home already. I picked up my phone, wore the necklace he got me, and stashed some
I held Tessa in my arms as she continued crying, holding onto me so tightly. "Hush now, honey, it's fine now," I said to her, gently patting her hair. Hayden's men shot the bastard a couple of times just to make sure he was dead. I took Tess back into the house and to her room. She laid down on her bed, and I turned to leave, but she grabbed my hands. "Tess, honey, you should take a rest," I said to her. "I don't want to be alone," she whispered while holding onto my hand. I sat back on her bed, brushing the hair off her face. "I will kill every single one of them before they lay a finger on you," I said, holding her gaze. "Kay," she whispered as tears formed in her eyes, gently trickling down on the bed. "I will be right outside if you need me," I whispered into her eyes, and she nodded, smiling at me. I smiled back and made my way out of the room. I went into the room, dropping my bag in the room. I took off the 2-inch heel I was putting on. I was about to pull out the gun;
AGNARS POVI have been troubled ever since I saw Kay. I don't know what troubles me more—the fact that my jealousy made me want to kill her or the fact that she is pregnant.I was a fool for kicking her out. I guess karma is indeed a bitch. There has never been a dull moment in this bloody pack. "What am I doing? I don't have time for regrets," I scolded myself.I shouldn't have seen her; seeing her has triggered something deep within me, and I can't seem to quench it. My head keeps going on a rollercoaster, and it's becoming exhausting."I need to keep myself busy," I quickly said, getting off my chair. I picked up my phone and made my way out of my office, heading towards my quarters. I wanted to get my keys from my room and probably go for a ride.It's the best way to get your mind off things. I got into my room and picked up the key from the counter, then headed out of the room.I made my way out of the room and was heading towards the parking lot when my phone began ringing.I f
When I woke up the next morning, I was feeling a little feverish and had severe pain in my tummy. I was scared at first that maybe the dream I had yesterday wasn't just any dream but a premonition, but I have never been the superstitious type, so I waved it off."It's just stress," I told myself several times. "Hey, sweetie, you are awake. How is my baby?" Hayden said the moment he stepped out of the bathroom. "I don't know," I snapped at him and made to get off the bed. "Come on, baby," he said, grabbing me from behind. "I know I have been terrible to you these past few days; I promise, I will make it up to you," he said, kissing my neck. "Promise?" I said I don't know but I couldn't stay mad at him for long. "Sure baby" "Well, you can start by dropping me off at the hospital," I said, disappearing into the bathroom before he could respond. I grabbed my toothbrush and paste, then set to work. When I was done, I quickly freshened up. I came out of the bathroom to see him dres
I was bored at home, but didn't know what else to do, I have strolled the house a couple of times, more than I could count; nothing was appealing to watch on television, and Hayden wasn't home yet. I tried calling a couple of times, and it went straight to voicemail. It was like the forces of the universe were working against me today. I tried calling Ben to find out what happened, and that was when he said something about some stupid meetings he had. I asked when the meeting would be over but he said it might run till midnight. I immediately hung up as it wasn't what I wanted to hear. I have no idea if it was my pregnancy hormones that were working, but I'm kind of tired of sitting around. I don't care where but I should go do something fun, and it's not in this damn house.I stormed into the house to go upstairs only to find Mom lying down on the couch, looking downcast."Mom, are you okay?" I asked her, wondering why her face looked like that. The last I checked I knew she didn't
AGNARS POVI, Cole, and a few of my men trailed carefully behind him; the last thing we wanted was to make a mistake, and he would notice that he had been followed. Thank goodness he is in pain, so he would be so concentrated on it that he wouldn't even bother picking up our scent. At some point, we were scared he might decide to go treat himself at the hospital first before anything because honestly, he is in a pretty bad shape. It was a damn long walk, in the woods but seeing him in front of a big mansion made it all worth it. We stood there in hiding, waiting for someone to open the gates for him, as he continued ringing the bell. When he felt like no one was coming, he banged on the gate a couple of times, he stood at the gates for a few minutes. Then gate flew open, but I heard the intruder whimpering in pain. He was clearly scared, He slowly moved back while a man wearing a black cap and putting on a black suit came out of the gate with three men standing behind him. I c
HAYDEN'S POVI had a meeting with some of our stakeholders this afternoon. I hurried up as I dressed up to leave the house. Kay was fast asleep, and I didn't want to wake her up. Lately, she has been having a difficult time with the pregnancy and I intend to make things as easy as possible. I raided one of their makeshift bases, and I didn't find out much from there, but my guys are onto something big; it's only a matter of time before it blows up. I was hurrying out of the house that morning when I noticed Kay's mom was on the phone talking to whomever. I wasn't paying attention to what she was saying until she said, I can't wait to have him fuck her silly. Thank goodness Lycans have super-hearing abilities. I stood there wondering what the fuck I just heard, but what made me uncomfortable was when Kay's dad was in the same room talking to a child he kept referring to as his baby. "My Prince, we need to leave now if we are to meet up," Ben said to me, waking me up to reality.
AGNAR'S POVI heard a crashing sound from the floor I was lying down on. I turned around, and the car that just drove into the fuel station ran into my car.I got off the floor, only to discover that some of my men were wounded and that my car was bashed in more places than I can count.I became pissed, wondering what piece of shit ran into my car. I went over to the car that hit us, and there was only one person in the car, but the person was already dead.I don't know if what happened now was huge enough to kill him; there were patches of bruises all over his body, but on closer inspection, the wounds didn't look fresh.My gaze turned to his legs, and it was tied up. This isn't what I was thinking, right? I looked around, hoping to see who set this up, but I didn't see anyone."The game is on Tomas," I whispered to myself."Clear this out," I ordered my men. * * * * * * * * * * * *I fell on the bed the minute I entered the room, and I was exhausted thanks to the bastard that pull
