She whispered the last part, more to herself than to me. I don’t think I was meant to hear that, but I did, and it has just raised more questions. What does she mean by 'this time'?She shakes herself, seemingly to get herself together. “You’re already great at hand-to-hand combat. I can fight extre
Alec.“You!” The words slip from my lips at the same time as Sadie says them.My eyes stared at the man in shock. A man that I thought I’d never see again. A man that I’ve been searching for for three fucking years.I could never mistake him for anyone. Well, unless he had a fucking twin that we don
Fuck! This was a fucking mess.“How the fuck did you not recognize the fucker?” I ground out as my hands fist at my sides.“I didn’t know how he looked,” Piper hisses hysterically, almost in tears. “You never showed me the fucking footage, so I had no idea who he was.”I think back and realize that
Sadie.“What the fuck are you doing here?” I growl when my eyes land on Alec.It was the next day, and I can’t really say that I’d slept much at night. I was pissed and irritable.“You honestly didn’t think I’d allow you to interrogate him all by yourself, did you?” he asks as he pushes himself off
When I push the door to the room, we find the man hanging from the ceiling. His hands tied up with silver chains.The room didn’t have much. Just the chains, a chair, and a table with various torture devices. It wasn’t much, but then again, did you really need much when you were torturing your victi
“Did she tell you why she wanted you to drug the alpha?”He shakes his head. “No, but the alpha wasn’t my only target. She told me to make sure that both you and the alpha have the drinks.”What the hell?“Me? What did I have to do with her plans?”“I don’t know. She just told me to wait until you t
Trigger Warning: The following chapter contains torture scenes.AlecHave you ever felt like you've been hit by a truck? That’s how I fucking felt right now when the bastard in front of me opened his mouth and spoke.I’ve always wanted to know the truth about that night. I have been searching for it
“What the hell are you looking at?” she snaps, her cold eyes freezing me on the spot.Is it too late to regret? Is it too late to fix what I've stupidly broken because of my arrogance and pride?Her white t-shirt and jeans were covered in blood, but it was like she didn’t really care. She gave off t
AlecI’m still rooted to my spot as Sadie’s words continue playing through my mind like a broken record.I want to ask if I am that terrible. So terrible that she would wish I were dead. I can't, though, because I know that I was a monster to her. Worse than a monster, actually."Alec," I hear Piper
She lowers her arms to her side.“Hi” she says in an awkward tone and a half smile.I stare at her, not really sure what the hell to do. The woman standing before me used to be my best friend. I knew everything about her and vice versa. Now I look at her and a stranger stares back at me.I should mo
I quietly pass some of Alec’s pack members. Some wave at me, but I ignore them. One, because I find their actions hypocritical. I mean, why, all of a sudden, am I now a good person? Just because their alpha told them that he made a mistake, and they conveniently forgot what they did to me. No. It do
“She doesn’t deserve my respect. Not after what she allowed to happen,” I tell her, all the while feeling her anger simmering to the surface.She doesn’t reply immediately. Instead, she closes her eyes for a second before opening them again. “One of these days you are going to regret all the shit yo
“I’ll win your love back. Mark my words!”His words keep ringing in my head over and over again. I try to block them, to bury them, to ignore them, but nothing works. They keep playing in my head like a broken record.I scoff at both his words and my inability to ignore them. It sounds ridiculous wh
I am just about to flee after having said my piece when his hand grabs my arm. I twist around and face him. His gaze is intense, as his green eyes pierce mine in a way that leaves me breathless.For the first time in our lives, Alec’s gaze isn’t indifferent as he stares at me. I gasp at the emotions
SadieThree days. It’s been three days since I had the dream, and I am still confused about it. It doesn’t make any fucking sense. Just like the first time I dreamed about being killed, I woke up in the forest, naked and alone.I have no idea what happened or how I ended up there. All I can remember
When I got out and started changing, I didn’t know that I would be giving Sadie a strip show. Not that I am complaining anyway.I turned when I felt eyes on me. That’s when my eyes landed on her form, standing by the window. She didn’t flinch or move when I turned, even though I was stark naked in f
Alec.“You look deep in thought.”Micah’s voice interrupts my musings, pulling me back to the present. It’s been three days since we found out that a demi-god was probably imprisoned here.I am in my office. I should be working. I had a lot of work load. Both from my pack and my security company, ye
