Aveline"What do you mean by it's not possible?" My face twisted in confusion. "Why can't I terminate the contract?" "I'm ready to do whatever it takes, no matter how far I have to go or how long it takes," I said, my determination and resolve evident in my voice. "I want you to tell me the steps I need to take to terminate the contract with immediate effect, so I can start making preparations."I paused, my eyes locked on theirs I knew it may take months to get some of the documents from the court, but I was willing to wait. I was willing to do whatever it took to make that happen. But what I didn't want to hear from them was that I shouldn't terminate the contract. That's not an option for me.I've worked too hard to get to where I am today. I've built Nova Empire from the ground up, and I won't let anyone or anything threaten its success. Beatrice needs to know that I'm not someone to be underestimated. She needs to know that I'm a force to be reckoned with.I took a deep breath,

AvelineThe thought of the next thing Beatrice would do disturbed me and as much as I tried to, I could take my mind off the threat she gave me. Sophie had Beatrice and Draven to help her, but there was no one for Betty except for me and maybe Kade. Just maybe. "Good afternoon, ma," one of the computer scientists greeted, but I took my eyes off him without giving a response to his greetings. I was weakened and infuriated at the same time after I found out about what would happen if I terminated my contract with Draven. 'No matter what happens, I'm here,' I understood that V was trying to be there at all times for me, but this was not something she was needed in, and sounding it to her would be rude, so I remained silent. I heard creaking sounds from a distance; it was the door that led to the conference room if I was not mistaken. The indistinct chatters I heard made me sure that they were the one. The flower vase was shattered on the wall by me and I screamed in anger after slam

Aveline The feeling of anger that was burning within me was now replaced with confusion and I ran my hand through my hair. "Please help me check if she's still there." My hand had started to fidget in fear. My body succumbed to the fear that was slowly taking over me. " I would do that right now." It was not up to ten seconds and she had started to pant. "I don't think she would have left the place, but since you are scared, I would do that right now." Sabrina said Betty was twenty steps away and she was yet to reach after ten seconds of jogging. Maybe I should have told her about the situation on ground and with that she would have been more careful with Betty. Some minutes ago, I was fuming with anger, but now I'm in a situation where I can't even think straight. I should have taken matters more seriously, but I failed to do that, and who knows if I was going to face the consequences seconds or minutes from now. I prayed to the moon goddess for a positive answer from Sabrina

Aveline"You must be Kade Pierce," Emily stretched forth her hand with a smile on her face. "I've heard a lot about you." Kade turned to me and I shrugged. "Thank you very much." He replied with a smile that did not go as far as his throat not to talk of his heart. "I don't think it's bad to admit that you are the one behind the success and massive growth of this company right?" She rolled her eyes at intervals whenever our eyes met. "It is, in my opinion, though; I don't know about others." The way Kade looked at me showed that he knew Emily and I knew each other. "In my opinion, I think it's Ms Nova; I've worked with her for three years, so yeah. She's the main person behind the success of this company." Emily scoffed in disappointment before taking her hands out of Kade's hand abruptly. "I'm sorry that I was not able to notice it sooner." I looked at the hand she stretched towards me in disgust. "Go straight to your point," I looked her in the eye. "I know you are here for so

Beatrice"What happened to you when you confronted Aveline?" Beatrice asked Sofia the moment she saw her seated in the living room."What are you talking about Mom?" Sofia asked with a fake smile, trying to act as casually as possible but it was too late.Beatrice already knew what happened, she only wanted to confirm that Aveline wasn't bluffing and Sofia's silence just proved that Aveline wasn't bluffing.Beatrice exhaled slowly as she settled into the same sofa Sofia sat on."Tell me everything that happened that day. Don't leave anything out." Sofia nodded at her mother's words, there was no hiding things from Beatrice. She was always so meticulous with whatever she was doing.Sofia knew that it was better to tell everything to her, especially as it had been confirmed that she was no match for Aveline."Are you sure that's what happened? Aveline is a wolfless werewolf." Beatrice asked with doubt after Sofia finished narrating what happened. "I still think about that night, somet

Aveline"You don't have much time to waste. Your daughter's life is on the line, except she doesn't mean anything to you of course, you can let the cold hands of death snatch her from you but remember, she will never forgive you if you do." Emily's voice sounded once again, making me more aware of my situation. I was caught between a rock and a hard place, with a very difficult condition to be met, I was at my wit's end.My struggles to build the Nova empire were for the sake of my daughter, Betty, I wanted to make sure she wasn't going to have a tough childhood or a tough time settling down when she came of age like I did.I wanted her experience to be the opposite of mine, she was the fruit of the only thing that mattered to me in the past but, I wasn't going to let the same people who almost ruined my life years ago ruin my daughter's life.'There has to be another way, there has to be some other way I can get back my child without having to give up a large amount of my shares or

AvelineFollowing slowly like a snail wasn't doing much to help my anxiety but the hope of seeing my daughter again made the slow drive worth it.Emily's car was ahead, and the two bikes were behind her, freestyling on the road like they were in some race competition even though I wouldn't know that I was being followed. Then I was the last vehicle in the line. I drove slowly so that Emily wouldn't see my car and it was killing me.My phone rang and I connected it to the car's speaker. It was Sabrina. "Hello, any update yet?" Her worried voice inquired. I could tell that she was tired.She decided to go from house to house on the other side of the city with Betty's picture to ask people if they'd seen her and I could tell from her voice that she was exhausted and worried out of her mind.She blamed herself for letting Betty out of her sight and no matter how I tried to convince her, it was like pouring water into a gasoline explosion. "Nothing solid for now, but Emily came by the o

AvelineHappiness and relief were completely an understatement to what I was feeling immediately after my gaze landed on Betty. "You are not hurt Betty, you are not." "Mom?" She forcefully took her hand out of the cop's hand, and just as he was about to follow her, our eyes met, which made him pause. "It's fine." She jumped into my arms and I took her far above the ground level with constant chuckles. "I was worried about you." I kissed her on the forehead. "What really happened?" I turned to my back, and I saw Draven smiling at Betty. I felt guilty for a split second. I lied to him about his child, but it was for her safety and nothing else. "There…there was this man who gave me gifts at school," Betty's serene and innocent voice pulled me back to reality. She had started to stutter in fear, and I noticed that her grip on my hand tightened, which made me hug her. "It's fine," I patted her on the head gently. "All that matters now is that you are safe." As we were in each other's

Sabrina"How dare you bring me to a motel? You think I'm one of those cheap sluts you play around with as you will?" Sabrina fumed, ignoring the look of total confusion her words brought to Julian's face. "Read my lips you scumbag, I do not want to do anything of that sort with you. Hell, I don't even want to be in the same space as you are and I'm barely coping..." Sabrina was raging on and on and it seemed like the more she spoke, the more angry she became so Julian tried to calm her down."Wait, wait, you think this is a motel?" He asked with a chuckle. He had no idea why he warmed up to the lady despite her fierceness. Maybe that was what intrigued him in the first place.Sabrina stopped raving and just stared daggers at him."You think I want to do something of that sort with you?" Julian asked again, a subtle smile of amusement on his face."Of course! Why else will you bring me here instead of taking me to the hotel we booked? This is not the name of the hotel. And why would y

JULIAN The day Julian and Sabrina were meant to travel finally arrived, and they both made their way into the private jet that was waiting for them at the airport. Immediately after they stepped inside, Julian noticed the change in Sabrina's expression, and it was quite easy for him to tell what the cause for her sudden change in expression was. “Why are the chairs so close to each other?” She questioned, slowly moving to one of them, while he moved to the other. “I am not the one that built this jet, so I have no answer to the question that you just asked me,” Julian replied as he slumped down into one. “It was a rhetorical question; you didn't need to answer it,” she replied with a quite feisty tone. “If it were up to me, I wouldn't have minded the chairs being so far away from each other,” she muttered under her breath. Julian turned to stare at her with the same amused expression that always finds its way to his face whenever his eyes land on the embodiment of beauty sittin

Aveline I started getting worried. Not because of Betty this time around, or Sabrina or even my company, _although those always got me worried daily_This time around, I was worried because of the She-wolf who had been helping me through my recovery. I had not seen her in a while now and it was not normal for someone who always came around every morning to check in on me and keep me company, she hadn't come in for three days. I had every right to be worried. Considering what I went through in the hands of Kade.'What if he locked her up in the cell because she did something offensive?' I thought to myself with a deep sigh. She was a slave after all, and slacks are not cut for slaves in the clan. 'What if they killed her?!' My heart beat accelerated at this thought and I placed a palm on my chest to calm myself. I had to think about the positives that could happen but there were barely any positives that could happen in this shit hole of a clan where the Lycans kill for the fun o

Draven’s office was occupied by three people, with Draven seated behind his desk on his usual office chair, while the other two occupants, Brian, his beta, and Scar, Aveline’s right-hand man, sat on the two chairs opposite where Draven was seated. “Let's not even beat around the bush, and let me get straight to the point. I called both of you here to fill you in on my plan to attack the Lycans and set Aveline free from their grasp.” His gaze moved from Brian to Scar while he spoke, paying rapt attention to the expression plastered on their faces. Just like he had expected, the only person that reacted to this news was his beta, Brian. “You know this is not something that we are supposed to rush into,” Brian said and leaned forward, placing his arm on the table, like Draven wouldn't be able to hear him due to the little distance between them. He continued before Draven could interrupt him, “These people are far stronger than we are; they are well versed in battle individually. It w

DravenThe day was a busy one for him, it was either that or he had been so buried in Aveline's absence that he snubbed work for weeks. And it was telling on him from the pole of files on his table and the trouping in and out of his secretary into his office with more complaints and questions. Must have lost track of time with the so much work he had to handle and he only realized that when he picked up a call from a client who wanted a detailed statement of his transaction with Draven's company. Draven ran out of his office when he saw the time. He had forgotten to pick Betty from school.He drove over to her school like a man whose wife was in the hospital.When he got there he was told that Betty already left and Kade picked her up.Kade was no stranger to the school. He always picked his niece from school before he decided to show his true colors and Betty always tagged along so the teachers didn't read any meaning into his meeting with the girls."You could have called me and i

KadeAfter his conversion with Julian, Kade decided it was better to act on his _with the last card he had to pull; getting Aveline's daughter, Betty._He had not shown his face since he got to Julian's clan and had his friend handle his business while he was away but everything was not going as planned so he had to take desperate measures."Hey, sis!" Kade greeted over the phone as he got in his car."Am I talking to a ghost? You have been gone for so long that I began to think that my dear cousin is now a ghost!" The woman exclaimed from the other end of the call."I had to handle some serious business and it took more time than anticipated," Kade replied with a calm voice."You got me worried. And your niece had been asking after you all week!" She replied. "I'm sorry I got you worried. You know what? I'm coming into town today, can I stop by the house for a good lunch? You know I've missed your nice dishes." Kade asked and just like he expected, the woman had no issue with hostin

AvelineI have not set my eyes on Kade since the last time he came to my room. It was hard finding out what happened between Kade and Julian because I was still healing and had been falling in and out of sleep.The she-wolf who has been helping me had suddenly been distant. She doesn't spend as much time with me anymore, claiming that I need my rest. So I had only the books she gave me for consolation. However, on this faithful morning, I woke up and I didn't feel sleepy after some seconds of being awake so I got down from the bed.My wounds were almost healed since I'd been resting well and taking my meds. I still felt weak but it wasn't as much as the first week and the pains had reduced to a faint feel.I staggered to the door and was surprised that it wasn't locked from the other side.Perhaps, this has anything to do with what the guards said about King Julian's order to let me be.Two guards were manning my door and they shifted their gaze to me when I walked out but they did n

Sabrina The days moved by so fast and the closer the date of her meeting with Julian drew near, the more anxious she became.How could she be in a meeting with a man who provoked her every being? The fact that Aveline was being held hostage in his clan was not doing anything to reduce the anger she felt towards the man."Hello, Aunty." Betty's light voice cut through the angry woman's thoughts and she stared towards the door."Hey, sweetheart. How long have you been there?" Betty was glued to the side of the half-opened door, staring at her mother's friend with so much adoration. It would be no surprise if Betty said she was looking up to Sabrina as a role model. The woman was fierce and still so sweet. She had a large heart but never hesitated to call out anyone who was in the wrong."Not long. I just came by when I heard you were going out soon." Betty replied with a shrug.Sabrina smiled as she gestured to the girl with open arms."Come here, child." Betty ran into her embrace.

JulianJulian found himself looking forward to seeing Sabrina again and it got him excited as he reminisced about the last time he got on her nerves. They were supposed to have a meeting concerning their collaboration."Kade is asking to see you, my king." One of the guards announced with a bow by the door just as Julian was about to leave the room."He's here for what?" Julian asked as nonchalant as he could be."He said he had been trying to speak to you since the evening of your return from your first meeting at Aveline's office. He's been going mad about it and threatening to break in if we do not let him in." The guard replied. Making Julian stifle a laugh."Typical of him. Let's hear what he wants to say." Julian stepped out, to meet Kade pacing like a hungry lion waiting for its food to be served."You want to see me?" He asked Kade who wore a frown."You didn't let me in your chambers? Why is that?" Kade asked, fuming.He was pissed enough that he was no longer regarded as t
