Assassinate The Alpha 26: Knives
SADIE.I drop my phone, again! Stepping back enough to check out my fit for the night. All I have ever done is take missions and succeed... remove Emmett from the list but all I have done is succeed. Never have I ever been on a hunting mission. Hell! I had no idea we are hunters—I want to warn Emmett but I know he already knows. If he is as strong as he poses to be… he should win? Or not. Everything happening tonight is all because I agreed to Emmett’s dumb plan to bring out the truth.“Have you packed your bronchodilator? There will be lots of smoke. We have to fog their visions and come for them unexpectedly even though we are expected.” Aunt Kitra says as she limps towards me.“You are limping.” I remark as I nod to her question.“It’s nothing. I have been far more injured in the past and I still fought. I know you are reluctant to kill a lot of people whose heads are not ordered but remember that those people are not humans and if they had the chance to come at us first, we would
Assassinate The Alpha 27: Marking The Mate
EMMETT.“Remember the rules. No killings, just graze them no matter how hard you are attacked. They are all trying to prove a point to the people and we are not going to let them have that edge over us. Cullen, you are fully in charge of the newbies. I thought I left a clear order for you all not to bring in new members but some of you all seem to be falling excessively in love.” I remark as I strap on my jacket.“How many newbies do I have to control from ripping people and turning multiple humans tonight?” Cullen asks as Liam walks in with Shell who barks a couple of times as I refuse to grant him his back rub.“Just four. Three ladies and a man.” Liam responds before I do.“Just? We need to start expelling pack members who do not seek permissions before turning people into one of us. It is not like you are not going to allow them anyway, it is just that we will have more control that way. It is always love and light, I know.” Cullen complains as I stoop to rub Shell’s back.“Shell,
Assassinate The Alpha 28: Non-human Baby
SADIE.I do not need to check the phone to know who it is. Every other person that may be calling this phone is going on this hunt mission. Leaves me to no one else but him. In case he thinks talking to me will change my father’s mind, he got it all wrong. In fact, hearing from him or about him will only fuel his anger and irritation.As much as I want to keep mute and not even speak to anyone, wherever we are going does not seem like the neighborhood I silently invaded to kill Emmett twice. “Where are we heading?” I ask as my skin tingles and somehow my ears pick on every sound, every single sound. Even the farthest sound.My nose as well, I smell the wet road so much, the trees, the air, the snake going on its own somewhere along the forestation.“I am sure he has been the one calling you.” He responds instead, and I groan from the amount of pain going on in my body as I compress the convulsion I am beginning to feel coming.I need every strength to control whatever is changing with
Assassinate The Alpha 29: Hold My hand
EMMETT. “You cannot be there. Please, Qet.” I beg her as she finally answers her phone.“It is too late. I am already there. I cannot leave now.” She argues.“You can get intrigued in this conversation and begin to retreat. I will come and get you soon. How are you feeling? Did you see anything?” I ask knowing fully well that she might lie to me.“I do not need you to care about me.” She groans out.“I do not need you to tell me when to care about you and when I should not. You are mine, and I will protect you at every point in time.” I retort calmly as I drive towards the borders.I need to go through the normal route. I need to be tracked in case there would be a need for reference. Dawson’s dirty game can be played by us as well.“I belong to myself.” She is still too stubborn.“Forgive me for telling you to shut up. But please shut up and listen to me. Of everyone you think you should trust; I am the right person. If anything happens to you, I get affected too. Your father cannot
Assassinate The Alpha 30: In case You Have A Kink
SADIE.I have never denied the fact that he is so hot. Too handsome. He aged so much like a fine wine. Old and beautiful. Just that he is way much older than anyone can ever imagine. How did the rest of the world not notice that this man has lived four hundred years? Has he been hiding, waiting for me? But he is also a popular business man.His hand holding mine on his thigh as he drives is hot and while I get relief from the pains, it only makes me want him more. Whatever this night is, I hate it and love it at the same time.“Stop breathing like that, please.” He says the only word he has said in the last few minutes to me in a while.Am I even making sense with my speech? I mean thoughts? Whatever it is. I feel so drunk without taking any liquor whatsoever. I am in a haze of pain and want. More of the want now thanks to him. I practically want to be held closer than I am now. I want to hug him shirtless.Shirtless brings back the memories of him and that—what’s her name again? What
Assassinate The Alpha 31: Dawson!
EMMETT.I want to hold her hand forever if it gives her this much peace. Tucking a stray hair behind her ear, I adjust the blanket to cover her properly as I watch her sleep peacefully.Is it too early to use the ‘L’ word? I know it is inevitable but it is what it is.Taking her fingers out of my hold carefully, I lower my lips to her forehead.“You should be here. Please.” Cullen mind-links me.“I will be there before you know it.” I mind-link in return as I cast a glance my mate’s way before exiting the room.Dawson is a crazy man, knowing fully well that we are at our peak on full-moon nights yet coming for us with his team like we cannot tear them all up in a go or at least turn one of them into one of us so they learn to leave us alone. Yet, he never gives up.“Stop trying to be civilized and just appear here. Let us finish this once and for all. If you can still see the prime minister tonight maybe you should.” Cullen is always impatient.“Look behind you.” I say at the same ti
Assassinate The Alpha 32: A Break
SADIE.Opening my eyes feels as though they are still close. It is dark and the faint smell of his cologne tells me he is not here but my moment of loneliness is short-lived as the door clicks open and the bed lights come on.“I cannot be here for long. My father and everyone will be back, and I do not want it to seem like I ditched them during a mission. It is bad for my straight records.” I start speaking before he does.“When did you start caring about what others have to say about you?” He asks as he inches closer.Right.“If we do not postpone this wedding. It is meant to happen in a few hours and I am not even ready. I am tired and our reason does not seem promising. If he agrees to this wedding instead of letting me know all that I need to know, what is the guarantee that us staying married will reveal a lot? I cannot deny the fact that I am becoming one of what you all are, I mean I saw my eyes change, I felt my bones snap if not for your intervention maybe I would have change
Assassinate The Alpha 33: My Mate Is Beautiful
EMMETT. Reviewing some emails, I fight the urge to glance at my watch since Jasmine and Priya have taken it too seriously to get my mate ready to visit the prime minister.“I have never seen her dressed up. She’s always in her leather outfits, and if not, she’s in a t-shirt paired with denim pants,” Cullen remarks as he and Liam return, each with a bowl of cereal and lots of meat.“At least you are speaking well about her now,” Liam replies.“I got busier in the last six years, and I didn’t notice how much she had grown. The first time I saw her— even though she looks more like Dawson— it still didn’t click,” I tell them as I shut down my laptop.“How was it going to click when you got fooled easily by her exposed legs?” Liam pauses. “You said it yourself that she was able to hold up her gun only because you got lost in the moment, and then you went ahead talked about how sexy she looked,” He reminds me further, and it is just a beautiful thing he is the one using cutlery.“I want t

Assassinate The Alpha 44: Esther, XOXO.
SADIE.Dear Sadie,Hey, I know it will be a mess writing that I hope this letter finds you well because you think without me, there is nothing absolutely well with you, but I assure you dear sister that it is indeed well without me even though you are not seeing it now. By the time you’re reading this letter, I believe you are more than old enough to comprehend everything here. I am hoping by the end of this letter you are not shaking your head in disagreement to the content of this letter. I hope that as you read this letter you do as I say because like you used to say, ‘anything Esther says is right.’ I hope that hasn’t changed about you and you still believe in my words. After all, I am mom’s guardian angel for you. I made this decision but know that our father and aunt Kitra had the most difficult time accepting it. In fact, it took our dad almost two weeks to finally accept it. He thought he could come up with solutions, but it happened that he could not co
Assassinate The Alpha 43: Killer Wolf
EMMETT.The poisons?Sadie cannot possibly be one. As much as I want to defend the impossibilities, I cannot. I have not known her long enough to defend her, even if I care about her and somehow, she found her way to me from the very first time I noticed her eyes gawking at my stark upper body while I prepared a meal.Could it be that what Dawson has been trying to protect her from is so she doesn’t become prey? I hate to be baffled, but Cullen might be right. The only stronger substance that can kill a wolf faster than wolfsbane, silver, or decapitation is the blood of the killer wolf.A wolf whose blood mutated in the womb. Could it be that Esmeralda died because she was pregnant with a child that fought with her immune system? Could that be the reason Dawson doesn’t fancy her and treats her like business?I wish I could stop overthinking, but I cannot. Why should I be fixed in a position where I have to choose between my pack and my wife if I test Cullen’s allegations about her? Th
Assassinate The Alpha 42: Ask Your Questions Again
SADIE.What do men think of themselves? I hate how he is able to get a reaction out of me. I meant both of them... maybe especially the one I might still end up killing. I will kill him, then kill myself. I still can’t believe my mood changed because he was pissed. Why do I even care if he’s pissed or not? I don’t care. I can trace my anger to Matt. He was slightly offensive as well. What does he mean by "he knows me well"? No one knows me. If anyone knew me, they’d know this isn’t where I want to be. This isn’t what I want to be doing. I am only doing this because I have to keep doing something. I do it, I complain, but it doesn’t stop me from doing what I want. If at any point a man thinks he can entangle my life with a life-long marriage, that man is deceiving himself. Mate bond or not, I own and control my life. I grew up human, I didn’t ask to not be one. Somehow, according to the books, I won’t be dying young—I hate that already.“You announced your engagement to him successf
Assassinate The Alpha 41: Where Did She Go?
EMMETT.“They already love you,” Prime minister remarks, standing next to me as he swirls the drink in his glass.“You seem more excited,” I respond, and drown the rest of the alcohol in my glass, in hopes that it somehow gets to me tonight.“You have no idea how much weight you will be lifting off my shoulders by taking this job. The danger that comes with having to be everyone’s friend when a friend to all is not any—if it’s for that alone, I’m happy to leave this position. It felt good while it lasted,” he replies as his eyes scans over the chatty crowd repeatedly.“You still have a few weeks as the prime minister. I’m not in a hurry, and we are still very good friends.” I drop the empty glass and take another from the passing waiter.“It’s a pity Dawson decided to leave our circle to be a man of his own,” he says, and I follow his line of sight.It’s Dawson, not so excited to be speaking to the woman who seems all smiley as she talks to him, making me interested in hearing what sh
Assassinate The Alpha 40: He's All Yours
SADIE.Sarah better switch up and just congratulate us. “Congratulations, you two,” she says, her bottom lip quivering, the corners of her lips tugged up in a smile that does not reach her glossy eyes.“Thank you,” I respond, moving closer to her for a hug. “Wipe your tears, and brace yourself. You’re a woman, and a man should not be the reason you cry. He’s all yours. You can still win him over if you can.” I whisper in her ear, a smile plastered on my face.Judging from the fact that I cried some hours ago because of a man, I am such a hypocrite. I hope she gets the point, though. It is not, and will never be, my intention to hurt a woman.“You’re a bitch!” she whispers-yells as I step away from her.The announcements have been made, everyone is back to enjoying the night and making as much connection as they can, but I just want to go home to see what’s in the bag Aunt Kitra handed to me.“Can we talk for a moment, please?” Emmett says as he rests his hand on either side of my wa
Assassinate The Alpha 39: Engagement Dinner
EMMETT.The guest can already tell it is an engagement announcement dinner. They just don’t know whose engagement is to be announced. It’s the reason they are free to gossip about the engagement, even next to the unannounced couple.I see my people among the guests, blended in as usual, conscious of what is to happen, and majorly happy, despite their anger that it’s Dawson’s daughter.“Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed guests, it is my honor to introduce the couple whose union will bring together two powerful families in the country.” I hadn’t noticed the master of the ceremonies take the stage until he spoke. “Let us welcome the prime minister,” he continues, rounds of applause booming around the room repeatedly until the prime minister takes the stage.“Thank you, everyone. It is my utmost delight to have you all leave your meetings, busy schedules, and even homes to be here. It tells me how you all value me, and my works for the country. If I had led the countries to ruin, you all wou
Assassinate The Alpha 38: I Wonder Too
SADIE.I hope Aunt Kitra will come. I have not had an opportunity to see her since she handed me over to Emmett to protect me. It’s the first time someone else held my inhaler to my lips and urged me to breathe. It had always been her since Esther was killed.“It is time. The guests have arrived and are awaiting your presence,” one of the prime minister’s staff announces as she walks into the room.“Just the powder, and you are set,” the makeup artist tells me, her brush patting my face as she speaks.Okay.“Do you think getting married to Emmett will restore Esther or bring the murderers to life?”I try to not let his words get to me, but they do. It’s not like I was deaf when he spoke.“All done,” the makeup artist says, grinning from ear to ear, clearly pleased with her retouch as she displays a mirror in front of me.“It’s perfect,” I remark, my eyes locking on mine in the mirror.“It was nice retouching your makeup, you were so calm.” She responds, earning a smile from me as she t
Assassinate The Alpha 37: Qetsiyah Sadie Dawson!
SADIE.I still feel drowsy from the kiss—my mind hazy and my heart racing. I wouldn’t mind a few minutes more, but the sharp sound of my father’s voice cuts through the air like a blade. “Sadie,” he orders, his tone as stern as ever. “Come with me. Now!”“Go,” Emmett says, a smile lurking on his lips as he shifts his gaze to my father, who might be boring holes into the back of my head with his eyes.I don’t care. When we want to talk about being shameless, I am sure he doesn’t have it in any of his dictionaries. That side-piece bih can’t replace my mother.“The announcement dinner is happening soon. The invites are already sent out and since the prime minister’s signature is on each, everyone invited will be present even unplanned,” he says as we begin walking together.My life is really taking another dimension because my father would rather I marry his frenemy than speak up. Did he swear an oath of silence? What’s this high level of secrecy over the set of people that killed his da
Assassinate The Alpha 36: No
SADIE.“Your mother and I have been best friends since elementary school. Our moms made sure of it,” says the prime minister’s wife, Margo, who has corrected me a few times.“And my father is friends with the prime minister?” I just want to confirm my assumptions.“Same old cliché. My husband and your father were the tough boys of the school and our seniors. I worked my ass off to remain hidden—not as much as your mother worked to remain the most unnoticed, but our efforts gave us the opposite result.” Her feet become still and she turns to me. “Your mother’s father was supposed to be the next head of state, but things got messy, and he was killed. His wife, your grandmother, took it head on and made sure her best friend’s husband get into power, so she stays within it. Women weren’t supported much in politics back then. With the help of your soon-to-be husband, everything became easy. That man owns this city.” She hands the basket of flowers she has gathered to me.Emmett owns this c
