"I'll give you the job, Chloe. But on one condition." My heart skipped a beat. "What condition?" Mark's eyes locked onto mine, his gaze burning with intensity. "You'll be my secretary in the company... and at night, in my bed." "What!" My eyes widened in shock as his words sank in. Mark's words hung in the air like a challenge, his eyes gleaming with a possessive intensity that made my skin crawl. *************** Chloe's a weak werewolf,she's born without being able to change. She's the mate of Vincent, a very hot tempered werewolf who maltreats and despises her. Chloe, now desperate and divorced, applies for a job at Vincent’s brother's company, Mark but she's unaware of the dangerous game she's about to play. As Chloe navigates the treacherous waters of her new role, she must confront her dark past, her forbidden attraction to Mark, and the sinister actions taken by Vincent who would rather destroy everything Chloe cares about than see her happy with someone else. Will she succumb to his obsession or risk everything to break free?"
View MoreCHLOEI screamed through the rag tied to my mouth like I never had before. I tried to run to Mark but the claws at my neck bore through my skin a little deeper. I looked to my mum for some kind of solace or help. She too stood there transfixed, her mouth hung open, her features turning more human.I managed to manoeuvre my gag out of my mouth. It was all I could do at the moment.“Vincent, you bloody bastard”, I screamed, “I’ll kill you myself…”Vincent still stood there over Mark’s squirming, bloody form. He had a satisfied smile on his face as he looked down on him.My mother, having recovered from her shock tried to move towards my direction. But Vincent countered. He moved like a damned spirit. Before my mum could take a step, he had crossed the room over to where she stood and grabbed her neck.“Vincent, no!!” My voice was already hoarse from all the screaming.Vincent seemingly ignored my protest and held my mother throat even tighter.“I would hate to kill a mother in front o
MARKI rushed out of the car and went straight for the entrance. My brother seemed to have been expecting me and had a welcome party waiting for me. I stood there, looked at the dozens of already transformed werewolves snarling and growling, all ready to stop me.“You have two choices; go home to your families…Or don’t.” I boldly declared to the wolves assigned to stop me. I could tell my words gave them reason for pause, but they quickly shook it off and came charging into their deaths. The first wolf to reach me landed from above with his claws bared out to do damage, I stepped to his right and sank my fingers into his neck plucking out a handful of his flesh in as he dropped to the ground gasping with arteries already lost. This angered the rest of them as they rushed at me from every side. I dodged a direct slash to my core as I shifted to my wolf form as well. All around me I delivered death to my own Pack members. I refused to think much about that though. All that I care
MARKI was immediately distraught. I wasn’t sure how to react. Rachel ‘s anxious voice still trickled out of the phone in my hand but I couldn’t hear a thing. I was caught up in my own emotions. I didn’t know what to feel; anger, hurt, frustration, betrayal, denial… it all kept looping around my head.“Who was that?” Jane inquired, obviously concerned by my broken expression.I squeezed my mobile so hard the screen cracked.“She left…. Chloe… she’s gone to meet Vincent”Jane stared at me with her mouth hanging slightly open, eyes wide with fear and concern.She stood to her feet and headed for the door. She tried to pull me along but I didn’t budge.“what are you doing mark?, “she asked incredulously, her voiced etched with despair, ”we have to get her back, come on”I held my place.“Come on Mark, you know how much danger she’s in”“she’s made her choice” I muttered silently, “ she’s chosen to trust Vincent over me”Jane let go of m
MARKWe pulled over at the address given to us by Jeff. The ride over here was monotonous and dull, my insides were a flurry of emotions, unease at meeting a member of my biological family while, at the same time, my heart bled from the whole exchange with Chloe. Hurt like I’d never felt before coursed through my very veins, making me want to transform and rage through the countryside for three days straight, like I used to back in the day, Whenever Jacinta took it upon herself to show me how “generous” she was by raising me, her husband’s bastard son, Or in the days after Pascal left and my father’s passing. All these feelings triggered by her words.The power this woman had over me scared me. My feelings for her scared me more than I’d ever admit. She wanted to go back to the father of her child, A familial bond that I have never had. Even with my father alive, I was still always a bit of an outsider. Never completely a son, a bastard son, or a stepson, never completely a brother.
CHLOEMy heart almost beat out of my chest as I got down from the taxi at the warehouse Vincent had planned for us to meet. It looked mostly abandoned apart from the fact that one of the bay doors was open and there was light coming out of it.For a brief moment, I thought about what my mum would think… and mark. I quickly shook the thought out of my head. The only thing that mattered was Mackenzie and I didn’t need anyone to come to my rescue. As I got closer to the bay doors, I noticed the area was crawling with Vincent’s goons, some were even humans armed with guns.Why did he need so much man power with me? Or didn’t he trust me that I’d come alone?The men didn’t speak a word to me as I walked past, some barely even regarded me. Vincent was at the center there with a makeshift dinning table and a single chair having dinner.“You’re late, Chloe.”, He muttered without looking up from his plate. “I’m just glad you made it.”“Where's
CHLOEMere moments before, I’d been ready to leave them all behind when the very air around us sizzled as Pascal Dennison made an appearance, he told us to leave the Porter’s house, which was fine with me, I was already leaving. Till he looked at me directly for what felt like the first time and said.“ If I were you, I wouldn’t go to Vincent’s, not right now at least. I just left there. Let’s just say I left him and Jacinta in sour moods. But you can’t stay here either.”And for what felt like an eternity, he and Jane simply stared at each other, with a mixture of emotions written on my mother’s face. He turned and left without saying a word, while my mother looked as angry as a tempest.Jane had decided that it wasn’t safe for us to remain in town. Mark commented on having connections out of town, enough for us to get a pretty decent safehouse. He made some calls and before long we were in his car on our way out of Drewsy.Tension in the car was so palpable I could almost taste it.
CHLOEI was so close to him I could see the tense rhythmic rise and fall of his chest. He took a step forward and I took one backwards. I could feel the heat of his displeasure come off him in waves.“Where pray tell, do you think you are going?”I knew he heard my conversation, at least part of it. So he already knew where I was going. And some part of me didn’t care. Not when it came to Mackenzie.“I am going to get my daughter back.” I said with steel in my voice I wasn’t aware I had. It shocked him a bit I could see. His expression changed from deadly menace to surprise.“And you think going back to him will get Mackenzie back?” He reasoned.“ I’ve known Vincent longer than you have. I’ve seen parts of him you have never seen, and I tell you this Chloe because I love you. Don’t go to him.”I couldn’t believe my ears, Mark just told me he loved me, he had shown me that over the last couple of weeks. Till he said it a moment ago, I never really realized how much I’d wanted to hear i
VINCENT “Uncle… you traitor” I winced and spat out through gritted teeth. Pascal just ignored me and walked over to my mother who was also huddled up in pain.“You made me a promise, Jacinta. One small thing I asked of you.”Pascal spoke very calmly but it was very obvious how mad he was. His eyes were bloodshot and despite being calm he had the aura of a walking hurricane in a three piece suit.I wondered what promise he was referring to, but I couldn’t focus through the pain. I could barely pay attention.“Don’t you dare touch her Pascal”, I screamed as loud as I could and tried to stand. Pascal didn’t even turn to look at me but the piercing pain in my head doubled instantly and I fell limp.“I… I didn’t …know” my mother breathed almost silently. The pain enunciated her every word, and it made me furious. The subtle but glaring fact that I could do exactly nothing about it made it worse.“You didn’t know!... really?”, Pascal scolded, hi
VINCENT “Boss, your daughter has been taken to your quarters.”I gave a barely perceptible nod to the werewolf who had just spoken, he’d been standing in front of me for about 5 minutes giving his report. And I’d only heard the last thing he said. It didn’t matter though, because in less than 24 hours Chloe would be here and my family could be whole again. Mark will be dealt with and my family shall once again boast peace. I allowed myself to relax a bit when I sniffed her presence.“If I didn’t know better I’d think you had no problems from merely looking at you sitting all relaxed there, son.”Of course, Mother chose this precise moment to come here and haggle with me. It was as though she couldn’t go days without her dose of hounding on me.“Need I remind you whom you address so carelessly?” I spat out with my back turned towards her.I could almost smell the amused look on her face as she dropped her purse on my table.“And who might that be, son?” she asked with a sarcastic smil
