Olivia's POV “What are you still standing there for? Don't you know that we need to get out of here immediately?”I looked at him sceptically. I still didn't trust him. There was no way he expected me to follow him.“Look, I can tell that you don't trust me, and that's perfectly fine. But didn't you notice how most of the men at the café were looking at you? Don't you think that's a little strange?”I looked at him in shock.“How did you know that they were looking at me?”He took a deep breath and looked around nervously as he tried to explain quickly.“I was in the café, and I saw everything that happened. It's a full moon, and it is dangerous for you to be walking around with your pheromones running wild.”I looked at him in confusion. Pheromones? What was he talking about? Did whatever he just said mean that I couldn't walk around on full moon nights anymore? I was nervous and scared, but the last thing I wanted was for what had happened with those men to recur. “My car is just
André’s POVI was in a meeting with Pierre and Doran inside my study."I need to go for a few days and find Olivia. I’m worried that something will happen to her, and I won't forgive myself if my hunch is right and I didn't do anything about it. I am leaving the both of you in charge of pack matters until I get back."Doran and Pierre nodded, but I could still see the scepticism in Doran's eyes. He was still maintaining that I should allow Olivia to come home by herself, but there was no way I was going to allow that.He knew, better than anyone, how long I had waited for Olivia. I wasn't just going to let her slip through my fingers when I got her and finally felt happy.Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Pierre stood up to open it, and Nicole walked inside. She looked around the room, and I saw an expression of disappointment creep on her face.“Seems like an important meeting is going on here, and I wasn't invited to it."I ignored her and glared at her."What do you want, Nic
Olivia's POV I woke up early in the morning to the smell of food.“You look pretty in my sister's clothes. I dare say that they suit you more than they suit her.”I brushed his comment away with a smile, and we headed out and walked to the hospital. I felt a little safer this time as no one was staring at me with eyes full of lustful desires. For the first time since last night, I felt comfortable in my skin.We soon arrived at the hospital, and it seemed that Dr. Sean had been waiting for us all morning.“Olivia, Jonas, good morning. I have been expecting both of you. Please come in.”He ushered us into his office, and we took our seats, and he sat on his, that was, on the other side of the desk.“I have decided to increase the dosage and make a larger batch just for you. You will need to apply it for two weeks, thrice a day. We need to be sure that your pheromones are only active on full moon nights, and we also need to be sure that there are no triggers, and if there are any, you h
André's POV I had just finished a council meeting and had barely paid attention to what was being said. Olivia had been missing for a whole day. I had not heard a word from her, not even a text.As much as I wanted to wait, I couldn’t let any harm come to my princess. I needed to find her and have her close to me.I exhaled deeply as I walked to my office. My mind was made up; I was going to find her, and nothing was going to stop me.I pulled out a packed bag beside my desk and immediately headed downstairs to meet Pierre, who was waiting for me."Pierre, I need you to contact our men in the human cities. I need them to send me every surveillance image from the bus stop to every stop made by the bus Olivia took."Pierre looked horrified, took the bag from me, and placed it in the trunk with trembling hands.“I don't think that they will be able to get you that information so soon. There are lots of protocols that they will need to take…”"I really don't care, Pierre. Tell them I will
Olivia’s POVWhile it was the last thing I thought possible, I had come to accept that Jonas was the angel father sent to keep me safe. Instead of waiting, we agreed to start the trip today, and while I was a nervous wreck, he was excited and took this as a field trip. I dragged my bag out of the house and saw Jonas leaning against a car. He had his back to me and spoke in deep, hushed tones."... called at a bad time. Yes, yes, yes. I have her and..."He turned to me, and in that instant, as our gazes met each other, my blood ran cold. Questions, doused in fear, filled my mind.What was going on? Was he talking about me? Was this why he had been so kind to me? In a split second, he pulled out another phone, casually dialled a number, and put the speaker to his ear. He gave me a sweet smile and answered the call. "Maryanne, hey. I just spoke to Rick, and you two should talk things out. I've tried my best. He really isn't a bad person, and I think you should give him a chance."The
André's POV I had a cup of coffee before me and watched Pierre go furiously at the keyboard. "Any progress hacking into the Inn surveillance?"Pierre continued to type faster, but soon, he stopped and stared at the screen.I dropped my coffee and stared at him."Well, what is it?" I asked impatiently. "Did you find anything? Do you recognise the man? Is Olivia in the footage?”I watched Pierre gulp before he turned to me. "The…the surveillance records have been cleared, Sir."I gripped the table in anger and nearly spilled my coffee."What?""The surveillance footage from that night till present has been removed from the records. There is nothing here.”I grabbed the laptop violently from him and stared at the screen. He was right. The records were empty. Someone had cleared the footage.My fingers went furiously at the keyboard, and Pierre looked at me in confusion."What are you doing?""I am looking for the footage. Are you blind?"My stern voice deterred Pierre from asking any m
Olivia's POV"We are here."I jerked in fright and looked around. Where was ‘here’?With the speed at which Jonas was driving, thirty minutes was reduced to twenty-five.I was in the middle of a book when he pulled up in front of a convenience store.I set my book down and marvelled at its size—large enough to qualify for a mall. "That was fast. I didn't think that we would be here so soon."Jonas smiled at me and gave me a warm wink."You should probably thank Rick for his car once we get back home." I gave a light laugh and looked around. The sky had completely darkened, and the moon was peeping out from behind the clouds.Grrrrr!I placed my palms on my belly and rubbed it a little. I had completely forgotten how hungry I was once engrossed in my book. Now that I was out of my fantasy world, my body protested its discomfort.Grrrrr!Jonas looked at me, and I could tell that he was stifling a laugh."Did you swallow a monster recently? I have never heard a tummy growl like that bef
André's POVNicole was the last thing on my mind, and I quickly had Pierre on the important updates. I would deal with Nicole some other time. "They lost him?! What the fuck do you mean by 'they lost him'?!"Just a few minutes ago, I had my hopes raised, thinking that I was going to find Olivia soon, and now they had lost track of the bastard that had taken her from me.Pierre trembled again in fear and continued to press his keyboard furiously, trying his best to find what had happened to the man who had stolen my Olivia."How did you guys even lose him?""I... I... I think he knows that we are onto him."“There are five different routes that he could have taken, all unofficial. I think he ducked into one of them. We can’t find him anymore."I glanced at the map dismissively, ”I don't have time for this!""I don't care what you do. Have men on all five routes. I want that car found and followed. I want Olivia found today. Our plan remains the same. We will track from behind and take
