ATLAS“Does Jade have any enemies?”I didn't even know how to answer that question..“She's my wife. That makes my enemies, hers.”I didn't even want to speak about her father. He'd gone off the radar and I doubted that he would know where we were so he wouldn't do this out of the blue.“Because this was personal. They were out to kill her and the baby.”“I'm going to need to summon all your kitchen staff and everyone who set foot in the kitchen this afternoon.”He nodded and stood up.“I’ll come with you.”As we left the office, he spoke to one of the yards stationed outside his office and he left.“Let’s wait for them in the living room.”Five minutes later, they were all gathered in front of us.Zade spoke up first.“As you all know, something tragic happened this afternoon to our guests and we're hoping to find the root of it. One of you poisoned his wife's food and we're hoping to find out why.”There was a light murmur and I spent my time watching the reaction of everybody's fac

ATLASIt had been three days and she still hadn't woken up. I was beginning to get worried.As a matter of fact, I was already fully worried because according to Zade, she was meant to have woken up already.Even he was perplexed.“Or maybe I gave her too much of the herbs.”I looked at him as he said that.“But I was sure of what I gave her. Don't worry, I'll give her something to wake her up and I'm sure it will do the trick.”He left the room and returned to a bowl.I helped him raise a bowl and poured it down her throat. I don't know how she swallowed but the bowl was half empty when we dropped her.“I’ll put the remaining in her IV. She should be up in an hour. I don't want to give her too much because of her condition.”That's fine. As long as she woke up.I stayed with her for a while before Zade came back into the room.“Hey, come out.”I wondered why he was telling me to come out when he could just say what he wanted to.“What’s going on?”He shut the door behind me.“Just be

ATLAS“I’m going to ask you questions and yoore going to amswrt them directly. Any time you make me repeat myself, you will be lashed. Do I make myself clear?”She was in tears.“Alpha, please-”One lash. She screamed and I winced.“Do I make myself clear?”She still didn't answer as she mumbled something under her breath.Another lash.“Yes! Yes, I understand!”Zade looked so unfazed and I was going to tell him not to hit her because she was a woman but I didn't want to put him down in front of his subjects so I didn't say anything.“Are you working alone or you're working for someone?”Her knees were giving way. Those whips looked like they really hurt.“I am working alone.”For some reason, I didn't believe that. This girl didn't seem to be out of her early twenties and doing something as grievous as this didn't seem to be part of her MO.“I don't believe you.” Zade looked at me. “Who are you trying to protect?”“I’m not protecting anyone. I told you I'm working alone.”“And I'm

JADEMy body hurt badly. Especially my waist..I tried sitting up but a sharp pain passed through it so I just lay there.My head hurt, my throat was parched and my mouth tasted funny.What the hell happened this time?I wonder how much memory I'd lost this time.I wanted to call out for someone because I wanted to pee badly and that's when I felt the thing stuck in me.When I checked, I was horrified. Why the hell was there a catheter in me?As I sat there wondering what happened, the door opened and Ray walked in.She looked like she didn't expect me to be awake and I wondered why.“Jade! You're awake!”Her voice triggered something in my head and I felt like chasing her out.I put a hand to my lips as she walked towards me.“Are you okay? When did you wake up?”My throat hurt because of how badly dry it was so I just pointed to my throat and she ran across the room to the dispenser and brought me water.“I just woke up. What the hell happened?”“A lot.”I figured.“Before you tell

ATLASMika was down in the cells because we didn't trust him. He hadn't exactly made any move towards harming Jade hut that didn't mean we should bring him into the house and give him a bed.So while he was innocent, he might as well stay where he can be monitored because he can't be trusted.Feyre was walking in front of me because I didn't know where he was being kept.She just stood there and waited for me to come.“Mika.”It was getting dark so I couldn't really see into the cell.There was movement to let us know if he was actually there.Feyre brought out a flashlight and shone it into the cell.He was lying and facing the wall. He appeared to be sleeping.She turned to the guards. “Bring him here.”“Yes, Luna.”They entered the cell and picked him up, bringing him to stand in front of us.He looked so confused.“What is going on? What have I done this time?”“You have done nothing wrong. We have a few questions to ask and we were hoping you could help.”He burst out laughing.

ATLAS“What are you thinking about?”Andrew joined me on the balcony.“When did you get back?”“A few hours ago. I had to get some rest.”I'd forgotten that I'd sent him back to the nomads to find out about the girl.“Everything about her is pretty basic. There's nothing special..she's just a normal girl named Evelyn. She lives with her family.”“Nothing more?”He nodded.“I didn't find out who Anika was. I followed her everywhere. There was nothing suspicious. She's just a little girl.”Well, that was another option thrown down the drain.“So will you tell me what you're thinking about?”I did want to tell him but I was not in the mood to talk.“Im just wondering who on earth would want to kill Jade.”“What are you talking about?”I forgot he wasn't around when it all happened so I gave him a run down of the two attempts.“What in the world? Who do you have in mind?”Right now, I am trying to think.“I don't know. The only person coming to mind is Damien. I know he hasn't done anythi

ATLASJust as I'd expected, we got home late that day.The sun was almost completely down when we entered the pack. Another reason I didn't mind was because I knew that the market would have been closed already and that would mean that most people would have gone home.It would reduce my chances of being seen by anyone.Ray helped Jade go to her room because she needed to eat and rest.I had a hard time getting Andrew to wake up and he ended up falling asleep on the couch again. I didn't want to disturb him either because I knew that he had been doing so much with me gone.He had handled most of the administrative work without complaining. I knew how packed my schedule was so I knew that he had done a lot of work and gotten little to no sleep.It seemed like everyone in this house needed sleep.First though, I needed to eat something because I hadn't eaten all day.Norman entered the house and I realised that I'd completely forgotten about him.“Norman, come in and sit. I'll get a mai

ATLASNormally, we were supposed to set out very early in the morning so that we could get to the pack earlier..I hated arriving during the night.But because of Jade, we had to wait till the sun was up. I didn't want to wake her up forcefully so I waited till she was awake.It was almost noon when we finished loading everything up into the car.Zade and Feyre were outside with us.“What should I do with the prisoners?” Zade askedId even forgotten about them. Left to Zade, he would kill them both without caring.“You said you would free Kira once Jade wakes up.”He nodded.“Yes, I will. What about Sophia? What should I do? And don't even say I should set her free. That's not going to work.”Well, I didn't know what to do then.“What do you want to do?”I couldn't say anything.“Do you release her into my care then?”I didn't want to have to take her back with me. It just didn't make sense to take a prisoner from another pack back to mine.“Yes, I do. But don't kill her. Okay?”He did

JADE“i needed to come see him.”“Why?” He collected the baby from me “I told you that there's no need to. Why do you feel the need to come here even after I told you not to?!”“Because it's not just your victory! It's not just your life that he was after! It's mine too! And it's Ray's too! So yes, I needed to come down here to get closure.”He needed to understand that this meant something to me too, just as it did him.“Closure? Is that why you put the baby at risk? How much more closure do you need?”What on earth was he talking about?“Risk? Incase you didn't notice, I was there with him! I was at risk too! I needed him to look me in the eye and tell me why he did what he did to my family.”“Or maybe it's because you're too hung up on the past and you just can't let go. Incase you havent noticed, you're so stuck in the past and you are obsessing over it. Move on!”Well, I'm glad he finally got to say what he wanted to. Now I know how he feels about me trying to find answers. I w

JADEI didn't think it was worth it at first. Going to see the man that had made me grow up without parents and without the concept of what a true family felt like.But after much thought, he needed to know that all his plans failed and I was going to rub it in his face..I'd gotten all three pieces of the stone together and wore it around my locket.It would hurt him so bad to see that in the end, I won.Iniko decided that that was the right moment to start crying and everytime I dropped him back in his cot, he cried even louder.“Young man, what is it that you want? You've been fed and burped and I just changed your diaper so there's no way you could have soiled it again -”I stopped and remembered what happened yesterday so I took a peak for myself. There was nothing im his diaper.“So what exactly do you want?”I wish babies could talk.I guess I didn't have any other choice than to take him with me then. Atlas would blow a fuse if he found out that I took his son to see Ford.Whe

ATLAS“By wasting any more time, we are not doing ourselves any good! Sixth Circle pack is vacant. We have their leader in our custody and I've taken down every opposition in our way, do you think it would be long before we get more interests?”Sometimes, having a cabinet infuriates me so much. It was like I was speaking to brick walls. I didn't see any reason why they couldn't just agree to me taking over the Sixth Circle.It would even be better for us because it would improve our army base, it would make our pack bigger and in general, it would be a plus for us.But they weren't seeing it that way. All they were seeing was the fact that Ford had committed something against the pack and they weren't going to take it.I mean, what better way to teach him a lesson by taking over his pack?“Alpha, we're not disputing the fact that you've gone a long way-”“But you're diminishing my efforts. What's the whole point of defeating him and taking him into custody when I can't even go ahead a

JADERay and I weren't speaking for now.How could she hide something like that from me?“Where is she?”“I have no idea. All I know is that she ran away when we were little. She knew that he would come after her and she didn't want to put you in danger. So she ran away and left your nanny to take care of you. I don't know where she is.”How could she do this?“Before I lost my memory, did I know?”“No, you never knew.”I couldn't believe this. I lost my appetite for the rest of that day and I just stayed in Iniko's room because I couldn't even speak to anyone right now.I'd spent my life thinking my mother was dead only to hear that she was alive and she ran away because of that beast.“It’s not her fault, you know. Your mother ran away to protect you and Ray didn't tell you because she wanted to keep you safe. You have to forgive her.”I didn't blame her. It wasn't her fault things turned out like this. I was just hurt that I didn't know.Later that day, I took Iniko on a walk so h

JADEI was just realizing that this baby has Atlas's eyes and hair and everything!“This baby is rigged.”He turned around in shock.“What are you talking about?”“You did something to make the baby look like you.”He laughed and shook his head.“No, I didn't. It's just a coincidence.”“Coincidence? Look at this baby and look at you. It seems like I didn't even have anything to do with his birth.”“Don’t worry, you can have the second baby.”I scoffed.“You think I'm going to let you have another chance to have photocopies? Big joke.”Iniko was so small and he seemed so fragile.Ray brought my food and she took him while I ate.“I wish my grandmother was here to see him.”She gave me a sad smile.“Me too. She would be so proud of you.I'm proud of you.”I'm so happy my sister was here with me. She was the one who had been by my side throughout and if the child had been a girl, I would have named her after Raya.“Thank you for everything you did. If not for you, I don't know how I would

JADE“I'm going to need your blood as well. Atlas, I promise it won't hurt her. Just a little nick.”He nodded and she dragged the knife across my finger.“Place your finger over the stone and let the blood cover it entirely. Do not take your hand away from the fire.”It was a simple instruction but it seemed so intense.It was almost over. My legs were beginning to feel well and it was getting harder to quiet my screams.“What do we have here?”That voice. He was here.“What are you doing here?”All I had to do was keep my hand over the fire until the stone bled.Ray helped me stand up straight while Atlas and Andrew faced my uncle.“So this was why I came here. How did you do that? How did you call the other stones?”I eventually removed my hand from the fire since we had found them.“I always knew it was with one of you. That stupid old hag told me she couldn't find the other piece but I guess she gave it to you. “Why were all the worst things happening tonight?I was in labor and

JADEAtlas returned later that evening.I was right with what I'd thought.“What have you been up to?”I knew he knew I'd been eating because of the smirk on his face.“You know you don't have to hide from me when you eat right?”Oh, I did.“If you see how much I eat and the way I eat, I don't think you'd want to be married to me anymore.”He burst out laughing.“What makes you think I care about the way you eat? As long as you're healthy and our baby is fine, I don't care.”“But then, what if I get fat? I'll be so big that I won't be able to eat. I don't know why I eat so much.”This was actually a worry of mine. Normally, I ate but my appetite was not this big.“Blame it on the baby. I figure when you give birth, the cravings will stop and even though you do get fat, you're still my wife. It doesn't change anything.”I was really married to the best man ever, wasn't I?“You’re the best.”“I know. Ray says that we have to get there before midnight so that she can prepare everything.

JADEAt this point, I was realizing that the earlier we did things, the better.“I’ll arrange for the sacrifice to happen tomorrow. We need to move as fast as we can before he gets Intel that were here.”I didn't want to have to run with this big belly of mine.“What are you going to need?”“Don’t worry, I'll take care of it. Just bring the stone.”We went to bed that night because we were all completely exhausted.“Hey, are you okay?” Atlas asked when we were in bed.“Yes, I am. Why do you ask?”“You didn't cry when you found out that he killed your father. You didn't cry when you found out that she was not your grandmother. I'm worried.”Now that I think about it, it's true. But it was because I didn't feel like crying.“I don't know. Maybe my body just hasn't proceses it yet. Maybe its because I hate him so I'm not bothered that he's not my father and I never really knew my father so i can't cry for him. I've already mourned for my grandmother.”I just didn't feel the need to cry b

JADE“Jade, step away from that.”I walked back towards them and stared at the pile.“What kind of animal would do this?”I had no idea but I think I was beginning to understand why she wanted us to find this place.This place held secrets.I went back to the wall to look at the drawings and try to understand them.I used my fingers to trace them again and this time around, I heard the voice clearer.“Look at the bigger picture.”I stepped away from the wall so I could see the entire thing. There were more drawings to the side and when I walked up, I noticed that there was a sign at the bottom of it.That sign…looked all too familiar but I couldn't just place my finger.“Ray, come see this. I've seen this before but I don't know where it's from.”She crouched beside me and stared at it for a moment.“I know it's familiar but I don't know where it's from, either.”Andrew and Atlas joined us and just within seconds, they knew.“We know.”They shared a look and it made me scared.“Jade,
