Friday morning, Anna had to wake up as early as six to brew coffee and make breakfast for her and Alma who was probably in her bed snoring.

She had to visit the bank to get a loan. Hopefully, if things were on her side, she'd be granted one and then go ahead to start making greatness. She already searched online for medium sized offices in San Francisco in case she was granted a loan. Everything was set. Capital would be the trigger to set off her bullet to its destination.

She made coffee and prepared pasta for later in the day when she'd be back and fried eggs to make a toast with bread that morning and stashed it below the sink in a cupboard to keep it warm before hurrying to the only bathroom in the house to take a shower. Minutes later, she was out. She padded carefully across the hallway to her room to avoid a repeat of last week's fall.

It had been a bit fatal. Anna had been hurrying to her room when she suddenly slipped and landed on her tailbone. She had screame

    Chapter 45For the past one hour, Alma's eyes did not leave the strange man who brought her friend in and took it upon himself to take care of her friend. He was quite a catch. Breathtakingly handsome, tall and lithe-bodied and she wondered how her friend had met the man. That wasn't important the previous hour when the stranger had swerved carelessly into the little parking lot reserved for tenants and opened the cranky door of Anna's car door to reveal a still body. Alma had let out a shriek, causing the strange man to wince like a large horn had been brought close to his ear. Alma didn't notice, all she was worried about was her friend lying unconscious inside the car. Lucian had to calm her down and let him carry her friend up the stairs because this woman was going berserk and he didn't have the time or strength for her craziness. He had assured her that her friend wasn't involved in any accident, that it was only a little problem which had set her off. He didn't tell h

    Chapter 46 It was late in the afternoon, almost time for the sun to set and the whole members of The Garoeux pack were assembled at the great hall built by Lucian's grandfather. It was situated at the West wing, a part of the building Lucian inherited. It had been an assembly ground for centuries and they had kept to the venue whenever the whole members were to meet. Prior to the general meeting, Lucian had gathered the members of his cabinet; Casey, Lucian's beta and a brutal one at that. He towered above them all and he was of a sturdy build which made him intimidating. Alex, his late father's right hand man who had been of great help to him. Aliyah, an Iota, the only female Iota to ever exist in history and always sent on espionage due the fact that she was almost human and could disguise as one. The Wolf Hunters never took her seriously because she was perceived as totally useless and more of a handicap. If only they knew how important she was. Felix, Lucian's po

    Chapter 47 The wind picked up as the robe-clad lady hurried to the sleek car parked at the end of the tiny parking lot. Her bare feet hit the ground with soft thuds. Pray she got to the car before her feet bruised. Finally, she stood in front of the small car and for several seconds, her eyes roamed over the beauty before her. She didn't have a knowledge of cars but then, she saw the logo and knew it was a really expensive car. Anna was about to pull the door open when a crash was heard, glass shattering, and out of instinct, she cowered. Straining to look at what had caused the noise, she saw the man who had wanted to kill her on the roof of a car. The car's roof was compressed and the windshield had blown out due to the force of impact. Shards of glass filled the floor of the lot. The window he had been thrown out from, Alma's window, had been unhinged from its joint and Anna gasped in horror. She staggered towards the entrance of the building to check for

    Chapter 48"One shot of bloody Mary, please!" A lady, obviously drunk, yelled over the blaring music. "Coming right up!" The male bartender yelled back in reply and soon he was making the mixture. A spurt of vodka and a blob of spicy tomato juice. When he was done, he slid it over the counter towards the drunk lady who grabbed the small cup immediately. "Thank you!" She emptied the contents in the cup in one gulp and placed the cup on the counter with a thud. The bartender shook his head and returned to his business. Turning in her seat, the woman surveyed her environment. People downstairs were frolicking on the dance floor and the strobe lights made her dizzy. She scrubbed her eyes with the back of her palm and blinked a few times to take in her surroundings. From her peripheral view, she saw a tall man come towards the bar and twisted in her seat to have a better view of him. He was really good looking. Built with muscles in the right places. His h

    Chapter 49"Lucian, who's that?" Lucian, who had been speaking to Alex, twisted in his seat when his gaze fell on Anna's form. She was hiding behind one of Uhh, that's Anna," He replied hesitantly. Anna, who had been hiding behind the column, moved and everyone in the room was able to see her. "Oh Lucian, what have you done?" Casey muttered under his breath and leaned over to Lucian. "She should be out of here before the whole estate wakes," "Know what?" Lucian said out loud as he stood to his feet. "This meeting is postponed, I have to take her home,""Lucian, you can't do that. Let Felix—"He cut Petl short, a sugary smile plastered on his face. "Felix has business to attend to. " As Lucian moved towards where nervous Anna stood, Casey spoke. "I don't know what's the matter with you both. Sometimes I forget I'm your Beta because you don't even acknowledge me at all," By now, all eyes were on him, Anna's included. Lucian st

    Chapter 50 "Werewolves are beginning to infiltrate our environment, we need to do something before it gets out of hand," The Argents, after spotting a werewolf with a human lady the previous night, had followed him to find out where he was coming from. The chase was futile because the werewolf had gotten them lost. The werewolf had spotted them before they did. Justin had been among the Argents who went to the club that night and he immediately phoned Walter and informed him of the development. Walter had asked to meet the next day. Walter, who had been leading the Argents for close to three decades, stepped into leadership as soon as his father, Gregory was killed not less than ten years after he began to lead the Argents. He paced back forth as he pondered on what might be done to permanently end the Lycan race. In his late sixties, he still possessed the gait of a youth. Moving with confidence, his footsteps not faltering. His blond hair had partially gre

    Nora leaned against the door and watched seven of the men peer into the monitor. None of them seemed to be able to understand the graphics. She chuckled. The only thing they were good at was killing. "Nora, Honey, care to explain what this means? We're not computer gurus." Walter spoke up after several minutes of silently conversing with his board of trustees. Nothing thrilled Nora than seeing her all-knowing husband with a look of utter confusion. He liked to think that he was a deity with all the knowledge in the world. She cleared her throat, still maintaining her position at the door. "Quentin, can you move? I can't see the monitor with the way you're standing," The man she'd just spoken to moved as she'd demanded and now, she could see the monitor clearly. She laughed again. These men saw jargon, she saw juicy information. "The tracking device you placed on the Werewolf's body stopped transmitting information when he got to Viewpoint park. He totally disappear

    Nora Argent? Unbelievable. Lucian and Felix hadn't left the lab and it was late in the afternoon already. Lucian had planned to go straight to Anna's street as soon as they were done here. "I feel weak, Lucianos. Very weak." Felix said weakly. It was uncommon to see him look this pale. The power of Argentum. "It's silver. Let's wait for Augustus to run tests. You'll be fine," Lucian reassured. "The Argents be damned. It's a good thing that they aren't able to trace our whereabouts. It'd have been disastrous, really," Lucian nodded his head and watched Augustus place a test tube containing a small amount of Felix's blood in a centrifuge. Moments later, there was a whirring sound and the test tube spun with great speed. Augustus stared at the men seated on the lab stool a few feet away from him. Lucian nodded when their eyes met and he gave Lucian a thumbs up in reply. "We have a lot to deal with, Felix. For a few days, I totally forgot about the existence of T

    Lucian pulled off the white duvet that had been stained in blood and carried it off to the bathroom. The smell of blood filled his senses and he would have killed her right there I'd his father had not taught him the art of controlling his desire and need for blood. He could still hear her son's from the room and honestly, he wanted to laugh so hard at how petty she was being right now. By the time he returned to the room, Anna had already put on her panties and was standing before her wardrobe, searching for a dress to wear. He walked towards her and put his arms around her, pulling her back so she could lean back against his chest. "I honestly don't know why you're crying like this happened before a whole lot of people. It's just me and you and there's nothing you should be embarrassed over." "Okay." Was all she gave in reply. She pulled away from him and returned to searching for what to wear. "Oh, come on. Is that all you have to say in reply? I know y

    "What are you doing here this late, Kevin?" A sleepy lady in an ivory night dress asked, rubbing her eyes. "Didn't you hear the explosion, Maya." Kevin asked weakly. "I felt the vibration. Wasn't that from the presidio of San Francisco?" Kevin shook his head. "It was from my condo." Maya gasped and immediately let him in, hurrying towards her bar to get him a drink. Kevin was so tired from the events of today. He flopped down on the sofa close to the bar so it was easy for Maya to get him a drink and pass it to him. He took the bourbon from her hands and gulped its content, squeezing his face as it burned his throat. "Thank you." Maya sat down on the sofa facing him. She pulled her night dress down her knees and when Kevin noticed what she just did, he raised a brow. "What happened? Tell me everything." Maya inquired. Kevin leaned back on the seat and raised his head to watch the ceiling. "A lot has happened. It's a really long story."

    A Tesla model car cruised into a large condo gate that opened automatically. When the car came to a halt, Kevin stepped out, aware of the fact that the house was eerily quiet. He didn't hear the noise from his kids coming from inside the house. He sighed and took out his phone, stepping into the porch and using a voice key to open his door. It beeped but didn't open. Kevin frowned. He used his card instead. It still beeps, showing that it had accepted his card, but still didn't open. That was when he got a notification on his phone. Kevin stepped backwards and turned swiftly. The door to his Tesla opened, sensing his body heat and adrenaline rush. It cruised out of the gate and it had gone no further than the next two buildings before a blasting explosion was heard. He didn't feel the impact bodily, but in his heart, he felt it. He lowered his head and gave thanks to whoever was up there. He needed to get a very large and expensive gift for Maya for going agai

    Anna was sick and worried now. She couldn't stop pacing about the living room. Casey and Augustus were worried too, but they were very good at composing themselves. Anna had woken up as early as six and had taken a trip downstairs when she didn't find Lucian in bed or anywhere in the room. Augustus and Casey were fast asleep on the couch, but she hadn't hesitated to wake them both up. They reassured her that he would soon return. Six was a bit early if they decided to book a morning flight. She wasn't satisfied with their answers, but then. Wendy came in an hour later, asking if both of the men had returned. Replies were negative, but she still had hope that they would return before afternoon. Anna had refused to eat breakfast. Any time she got really worried about something, her appetite always flew away into the thin air. Now, it was nearing evening and the whole estate was already aware of the absence of the Alpha and his Beta. Nobody was to leave the estat

    "Hello, this is Georgina from Element 14 speaking. Mr Kevin has scheduled a date with you this evening by six pm. He expects you to wear a red velvet dress coupled with silver pumps." Maya was abashed. "Thank you very much, Gina. Relay this message back to him. Tell him that I will be absent. I have important things to do." Georgina, who was staring directly at her boss, bit her lip nervously, but nodded nonetheless."Alright, ma'am. I will return this message to him." Georgina dropped the receiver and cleared her throat. "She says she will be absent. She has important things to do. " Kevin sighed and rubbed his temple. He nodded and walked back to his office. When he got to his office, he kicked a glass vase standing beside the entrance to his office. His boot took the impact and cushioned whatever pain he was to have later. He was really frustrated. Maya was not picking his calls. He had called her several times today (though, it was just five times, it coul

    There was a loud bang. Lucian jerked awake. The room was dark and the only light seeping through was from a 2x2 window situated above his head. He was disoriented for just a few seconds before he took note of his surroundings. Immediately, he whipped his head around in search of his friend. Felix was at the other end of the room snoring like he was a human who had drunk a barrel of rum. He was tied to a chair with a really thick jute rope and was unable to move. Even his feet were bound to the iron feet of the chair. Lucian bent forward. "Hey! Felix!" He whispered a scream. Felix didn't budge. He was still unconscious. Lucian decided to wake him using telepathy. He closed his eyes and tried to connect with Felix's mind. It turned out that he couldn't even connect with Felix's mind train. It felt like there was a barrier stopping him from connecting with his friend and when he looked around to find the source of the problem, there was none. Suddenly

    Walter could walk on his own without the aid of a wheelchair or crutches. Though there was a limp in his movements, he could do just fine and the regular exercises he participated in helped a great deal. Walter was plotting. As he took power walks down the aisle that had been mounted in his node, his mind worked mach 5. He had never been this determined to bring something down his whole life. Nora would regret leaving him for another man; an enemy that he had sworn to kill. His doctor had left after taking record of his vitals and here he was, exercising his body and getting ready for whatever was to come. "I can see that you're in good shape, Walter. " Walter slowed down to a halt and turned his body towards the entrance of the node where Kevin stood. "Yes, I am." Walter replied, breathing heavily. "Can we talk for a few minutes?" Walter nodded and went over to the railing where his towel hung. He removed it from the hanger, wiped his face and pick

    “Yes! I felt it. Look at your skin, olive. Not something Hollywood uses to artificially tan their skin. It's so natural. Your hair tells another story. Not American at all. You're mixed?" Lucian nodded and just as she was about to ask another question, Felix was standing behind her chair, one hand on her head rest and the other, on the arm rest of the seat. He gave the stunned lady a beautiful smile, took her hands and placed a soft kiss on it. "Name's Chase. What's yours, beautiful?" The lady swallowed. Her heart was beating real fast and she was having issues with breathing. "Nao— Naomi Sparks!" She stuck out her hand awkwardly. Felix, still with the seductive expression, smiled at her. "Nice to meet you, Naomi. You're really beautiful, I must say." The lady blushed beetroot red. "Thank you. You're not bad looking either." Felix placed a hand on his chest and closed his eyes in heartfelt gratitude. "Can we switch seats?" Naomi nodded i

    Anna woke up feeling energized. Lucian was not on the bed beside her and she guessed that he had already left the estate for whatever meeting he had with the council. The curtains were drawn to let light in and when Anna checked the digital clock sitting on the wooden bedside table beside her, it read twelve twelve. She sat up and threw back the covers, gasping in surprise at how long she had slept. Wendy would have knocked on the door with breakfast in hand and that would have been two or three hours ago. Anna rubbed her forehead and sighed. Self conscious about her appearance, she walked to the mirror standing before Lucian's dress stand. Noticing that she was close to being naked in her bikini from last night, she squealed in horror and threw open his wardrobe in search of something to cover up her body. She did not want Wendy to find her looking like she had been savored last night. Lucian's wardrobe was filled with clothes and she pushed really hard before
