ConanI rubbed my eyes with my hands because I was sure that I wasn't seeing right and I was sure that there was no way this witch dared to appear before me right now. The smile on her face was unwavering as she tucked a lock of hair behind her ear before shifting her gaze from me to Arthur. A smile crept at the corner of her lips. "I have always known that there was something about you that I couldn't pinpoint exactly. I mean that was why I chose you and that was why I confided in you. Maybe it was because you were Conan's beta all along and that was what attracted me to you" She smirked while Arthur rolled his eyes to the back before darting his eyes towards me. I squeezed my eyes shut, trying to refrain myself from bursting out in anger and most importantly, trying to wrap my head around how she was here. She wasn't the one that I was supposed to meet or did I enter the wrong boardroom or what the hell was even happening right now?My eyes flicked open, burning with rage and the
Liana's P.O.VI crouched before the little girl before me, wrapping a scarf around her neck while pulling her slowly on the cheek. "There you go, stop crying anymore. No one is going to mock you for not tying your scary well and if anyone tries to bully you, then you should make sure that you would fight them" I muttered, placing a kiss on her forehead before encircling my arms around her. "You would be fine, Kiddo" I patted her slowly on the back before releasing her from my arms while she ran to meet her friends. She paused on her track and waved at me while I waved back at her until she disappeared from my sight and I had to huff in a breath. I was about to turn when I caught sight of my sister-in-law, carrying my child as they both waved at me from afar. A bright smile formed on my face while I rushed towards them and took my little girl from her. She giggled upon seeing me and that was when I knew that her mouth was stuffed with candies.I shot my sister-in-law a playful glar
ConanI leaned forward with my arms for support, narrowing my eyes towards Matilda as I stared daggers at her."You are here again?" Didn't I tell you or didn't I warn you that you should never show your face before me? A lopsided smile spread across her face as she dropped her jaw on her palm. "What are you going to do to me? Alpha Conan? You can do nothing and, I am the one who has the upper hand now, and with the way things are going, I can see that you aren't interested in having or finding your dear mate" A scoff left my lips while my hands balled into visits. It took a lot of self-control for me to restrain myself from exploding in anger. "Matilda, can you please shut the fuck up? Yeah, I mean it, shut the hell up. The only reason Arthur allowed you in here was that he thought that there was at least something redeemable about you and your character! I know that you don't know where Liana is!"I continued. "Ever since your father knew that you were worthless as crap and would
Liana's P.O.V My head was banging with pain and it was throbbing. My eyes struggled to flutter open and my head kept pounding and I couldn't help as a wince escaped my lips. The blinding lights from the window seeped through my eyelids as the light from the window caused me to squeeze my eyes shut.As I lay in the silence, the memories from earlier flooded my head and the only thing that I wanted to do was just to drown in the silence. However, in slow motion, I tried to recollect how I had found myself in this state when the realization dawned on me that I had fallen asleep after Ananyah gave me my medications. I couldn't help but to heave a sigh and I found it extremely hard to even lift my leg and my whole body was weak and heavy to move. Every time that I wandered off and acted recklessly as Ananyah would always say, she would always feed me with my medication because she claimed that would calm me down. However, whenever I use those drugs, I couldn't place the weakness and th
Liana I raised my head, raising my brow as I stared intently at him with confusion evident on my face. “I don't understand something, why do you think that it is good that I can't recollect him” I muttered staring deep into his eyes for the answers to the questions that flooded my head.“What do you mean?” Bruce Lawrence questioned, acting clueless.The way he acted made it feel like he was trying to hide something about me. It was more like he was trying to hide something that had happened in my past and the more that Itried to recollect what it was, the more I slowly drifted into the darkness and the myriad of questions that needed answers.“I asked you why did you say that it was good?” I said while he suddenly let out a peal of awkward laughter as he shook his head slowly.“You are really funny a lot though, I meant that it is good that you are now okay, I wasn't referring to you in any way,” Bruce Lawrence said while I kept my gaze fixed on him as I tried to make sense of his w
Conan's POVArthur smiled, his smile reaching his eyes. "We gave bagged another business deal and our pack is being reinforced right now, our pack is going stronger and better," He said while a faint smile formed on my face.Despite the great feat that we have achieved, I wasn't bothered about it and the only thing that lingered in my mind was all my plans that I have abandoned ever since a great void occupied my mind. I leaned in the chair and when my eyes met with that of Arthur, the smile on his face faded slowly as soon as he saw how fast my countenance changed. Arthur sat on the seat across me with a brow raised in confusion. "Is anything the matter? Why don't you look happy or aren't you satisfied with what is happening?" Concern was laced in his voice.I leaned in the chair, running my hands through my hair. " Do you know what? It is about time that we strike, things have been calm for too long!" "Strike? Wait for a second, are you saying that we should begin the revenge pla
ChapterConan P.O.VAs soon as I was done talking, Bruce Lawrence's father, Mr Ryan charged inside my office with eyes blazing with fire. His eyes sparkled with rage and the only thing that I wanted to do was scoff right at his face.With a taunting smile still graced on my lips, I leaned in the chair, staring intently at him. "What do you want from me? Why are you here? Did you lose your way?" I said with eyes devoid of emotion even though I was just like basically taunting him.He ran his hands through his hair, wriggling his index fingers at me in a warning. "Cut it Conan or whatever your name is, Stop acting like you don't know what I am talking about! You are the one behind detonating the bombs around my pack. You were the one involved in it two years ago and you are the one behind it now!" Mr. Hunter snarled while I stared at him indifferently in a way that seemed to have pissed him off.He placed his hands on his chest as if he was trying to control the rate at which his heart
LianaWith Daisy in Bruce's hands, I watched as he slowly as he dropped her on the couch and pressed the phone against his ear. His eyes kept widening with every passing second and at that moment, I knew that something frightening must have happened.But what could it be? Bruce Lawrence and I were supposed to book the next flight to Malta and I hope that whatever was happening wouldn't stop me from going with him to visit my family. I attempted to get to my feet but Ananyah quickly stopped me, nodding her head slowly. I was taken aback seriously because why would she stop me? Was there something serious that I didn't know about? What in the world was wrong? "What?" I muttered, staring at her and when I noticed that it was more like I was glaring at her, I quickly forced out a smile. "What is wrong and why did you stop me?" I asked her again while she pointed in the direction of the clock that ticked slowly. It was 9:00 am and when I transfixed my gaze back to her, a smile spread
