JADE

I kept looking over my shoulder as I headed to the restroom. I’ve never been a particularly paranoid person. But I believed there was a reason I kept feeling this way. Like I was being watched. That weird sense of doom in my stomach.

Something bad was about to happen. But where? To who?

It was making me almost go crazy.

Nothing jumped from behind me in the restroom. I kept looking over my shoulder while I relieved myself. I kept glancing all around me while I washed my hand and adjusted my barely there makeup. I only added a fresh coat of lipgloss and then walked out.

The hallway was empty and I could have sworn the lights were brighter when I came out the first time.

The eery silence was a contrast to the busy place I had passed when coming.

The hairs on the back of my hand stand at attention. Goosebumps appearing all over my skin.

I turned to my left slowly. I think I heard soothing but I couldn’t tell if it was true or just my mind playing tricks on me. There was no sign of an

    ATLASI knew I wasn’t alone even before I closed the door. One part of me thought of telling Andrew to just piss off but that would just make him become more insistent on trying to talk to me about her.And the other part of me. The one that hated showing even an ounce of weakness didn’t want to give Andrew the impression that anything bothered me. To him, it didn’t.“What do you want?” I said without looking at him as I wet headband took my seat.He came out of the connecting door between my office and one of the hallway exits. If you didn’t know it was there, you would never guess the wall was a door.“Just checking the doors to see if they are rusty or not.” He said, hesitating a bit.I shot him a glare to which he raises both his hands up in surrender.“Fine, I’m sorry for coming into your office like this, I know you’re not going to be happy about me talking to you outside.” He looked around. “And well, there are a Loy less weapons here.”I looked at the pencil case on the desk.

    ATLAS“You’ll be dead if I find out you’re fucking with me.”Without waiting for his response, I walked out of the office and went back to my room. I changed into a midnight two piece suit. With a green shirt underneath. Did I think of hr eyes when I saw it? Yes. Did I think it’ll impress her? Also, yes.I may now show Andrew or anyone else how much I really wanted hr in my life now. And not just because she is the best luna this pack will ever like. After the time we spent alone together. I find that I actually like her company.Not that I’m ready to admit hat to anyone.When I went back downstairs, Andrew was already waiting for me and he had a shit eating grin on his face. He looked way too happy for my liking so I made sure I kept my expression passive.“You are sure she is here.” I didn’t word it as a question but he still nodded as he opened the front door.“I have full reassurance.”I huffed and opened the car door. He rounded the corner and got into the driver’s seat. I leaned

    JADEThe pounding of my heart was loud in my ears. I tried to stifle my laugh at the sight of the mood board in the room.Damien really underestimated me if he thought this would be hard to find.We have been playing Chase, the game, for the past half hour. And it has been good, more than good. So far, I’ve found everything he has hinted at and though she were harder than other. It generally wasn’t complicated. I barely had to use my brain for it. Just my sense of smell, which if I do say so myself, is good as hell.Perks of being a wolf and all.He’d hinted at the contents of paint. And told me to find the specific painting.We have been playing around five empty rooms. He said the other parts of the club were busy since there was a show going on so no one would interrupt us. And I was happy about it.He got a walkie talkie, from one of is security men, probably. And we have been using it. He tells me what to find from there and when I do, I’ll describe what it is.He also had video

    ATLASI’m going to fucking Andrew when I get my hands on him. Did he think this was funny?I fumed as I walked out of the room where I had the bad luck of walking in on an orgy. The asshole told me to go in there and Jade will be surprised to see me.The rational part of me said it didn’t sound right. But I had been running on the high of…God know what? Maybe seeing her and I went in.I had walked back pout after apologising to the room. Not that they seemed to care, too busy doing what they were doing.I was upset for two reasons now. What the hell was Jade doing in a place like this? And how did Andrew even find out?When I walked back to the hallway, I heard a commotion and Jade’s voice. I sped up and walked to the door. It was even opened and the inside was dark. My wold was ready to spill blood and hurt whoever dared lay a hand on my mate.“You.” That was Andrew.The sims fucker. Half of this is his fault.“You.” A less enthusiastic voice, belonging to one of the top five people

    JADEI was silent the whole drive. I appreciated how atlas didn’t try to make conversation or even ask how I was. I didn’t ask where we were going either, I already where he would take me.And since I didn’t want him to know where I was staying. I was cool with it.I was surprised when he pulled up at the cabin his uncle had let me stay in. I turned to him, not sure what to say as he killed the ignition.“Get you things.” He said simply.Confused, I stared at him dumbfounded. What did he mean by that.“What do you mean?” My voice sounded a little raspy from lack of use or something else.I just didn’t want to think of anything that happened. The possibility of famine just using me to get to him.Atlas had a lot of enemies. Some were dangerous but others not so much.That was the one down Sid elf being powerful and coming from a very powerful family. And with his ambitions, it would be surprising if many people didn’t want to see him fail.I never would have guessed he knew Damien. I k

    JADEI gasped into his mouth which gives him the chance to slip his tongue into my mouth. A growl rumbles from his chest and I felt it right down to my toes.There was a voice in my head. It was saying things but I couldn’t make any of it out for the life of me. Something told me I should listen but how could I? Atlas has taken over every last sensible nerve in my body. And now all I can see and breathe is him.I felt his hand on my skin. How did he even get here? I am wearing a gown.My thought cuts off when his hand slipped between my thigh.I tried say his name but it only came out as a muffled sound that I couldn’t make out either.God. He was’t really touching me anywhere, just stroking my thighs but it felt so damn good.“You said you would stay.”It takes more than five seconds for me to even understand what he just said. And really, he wants to have that conversation right now?I blinked, trying to smooth out my thoughts to think of a response. He kisses down my neck, taking a

    ATLASI knew my senes would never fail me. Admittedly, I didn’t notice until it was almost too late. I had been…distracted. By Jade. Her scent. Her body. Heck, just the fact that she was alive and present was enough to distract me. I hadn’t heard the sound early else I would have acted faster.And I should have noticed the way her eyes were rolled to the back of her wasn’t normal. But like I said, I was too lost in her to really pay attention to other things.I don’t know what happened to her. Was she drugged? She was shown the signs but there was no way to be sure.At least, I knew she was safe inside the closet. Not I just have to find the unlucky fuckers that thought they would get a free pass tonight.I had checked the living room and other rooms in the house but there was no sign of anyone. Or even where they might have broken in through.After surveying the kitchen, even opening the cupboards like I expect someone to hide in there. I stood straight and started walking towards th

    JADEI felt like I was in a rocket ship and I wasn’t wearing seatbelt. Or maybe a super fast car. I didn’t know how to explain it but my head felt light and like I was floating. I could hear voices around me but not what they were saying.And I’m lying on my back and the next, I feel like I’m falling from a skyscraper.I didn’t like any of this at all. Not to mention, the nausea. It was horrible. Probably the worst of everything else that was going on.I heard a thud that shook me. And my worried brain went to atlas. I didn’t know how many they were. Who even are they and what do they want? I just know I didn’t want him to get hurt.I needed to do something. I can’t stay here and let this weak feeling win. I’ve never even given up and I’m not about to start.Using every last bit of strength that I had, I tried to move my body. I needed to know if I had that ability or not. Thankfully, when I tried moving my leg, it moved. Not in the direction I wanted but it was a start.The next was

    ATLAS“Atlas, lets go.” Feyre touched my arm lightly. I collected the bag from her. “Thank you. For your help. I'll never forget it.”I grabbed Feyre's hand and walked out of the room. Thankfully, there was no one outside and we tried not to make it look obvious that we were running away. “Keep your head down and just walk fast.”The car wasn't a far distance from the house. “What do you think is going on?” If I said I had any idea, it would be a lie. “I don't know.” I turned the engine. “But first we need to get out of here.” As soon as we're gone, then we can think of what the girl said. “Who’s Anika?” I asked Feyre. I thought she didn't hear me so I didn't repeat myself. When she blinked, I was very sure that she had heard me but refused to answer. So I let it go. Hopefully, by the time we get home, Jade will be awake and I'd be able to ask her what the hell is going on because I didn't understand why the young girl would be telling me that her mother was alive when all

    ATLASThe girl looked at me like she didn't just scare the life out of me. I put the knife back in its sheath and looked around to make sure that no one was behind her and using her as bait. I heard Feyre's voice behind me. “Who is it?”I raised a hand to silence her, not talking my eyes off the girl. “Who are you and what do you want?” She didn't say anything and stared at me with a blank face. Letting my guard down, I opened the door a little more to let Feyre see who it was. She looked into the room and made contact with Feyre. Without answering me, she pushed into the room and I just watched her and then closed the door behind me. “What do you want?” I repeated. “You need to get out of here.” Her voice was quiet but we heard her. Feyre and I made eye contact, both sharing confusing looks. “What are you talking about? And who are you? You haven't answered my question.”My eyes swiftly moved to the door to see if I should be expecting any more surprises but it was clear.

    JADEI wàs hungry but then again, I couldn't exactly be bothered to eat anything. I was in pain, excruciating pain that I couldn't even get any sleep last night. The nurse had come in to give me something for the pain but it was like this baby wanted me to be in pain. Eventually, the pain went away and I just sat up on the bed, thinking about what the hell was going on. It felt like I passed out and all of a sudden, Atlas was in love with me, I couldn't find Annie hanging around him like a monkey from a banana tree and I was pregnant. Heavily pregnant and in pain. I needed answers and I needed them fast. I'd been asking for Andrew all day but I couldn't find him anywhere and then speaking of Atlas who could tell me where he was, I also couldn't find him. What was I expecting? That man that hated me with passion, how would he come in to check on me? I'm sure that he wouldn't care if I died. I was alone in this hospital room, with no clue what was going on. The door to my room

    ATLASI was staring out of the window with an unclear mind and a raging headache. I'd thought about so much that I was tired of even thinking. This whole situation was getting to me and the fact Jade didn't even remember what happened in the last few months was killing me. What the hell happened?I felt a hand on my shoulder and I turned to see Zade behind me. “You look like you're a thousand miles away.” He brought me a glass of something and as I lifted it to my lips, I scrunched up my nose and pulled the glass away from me. “What the hell is that?”He had a smirk on his face.“Something that will wake you up and calm you down. You look like you haven't gotten any sleep in a while. You need to take it easy.”That was easy for him to say. It wasn't his wife and child who were at risk here. I felt like if I took a break, then it meant that I wasn't serious. Looking at the glass one more time and deciding that I could kill Zade if anything happened to me, I threw my head back and

    JADEI knew I wasn’t alone in the room even before I fully woke up. So, when I open day eyes, I wasn’t surprised to find Atlas sitting on a chair beside the bed. My mood immediately plummeted.I really didn’t need him and his fairness right now. We both know he would much rather be with Annie than here. Why was he even here and how long has he been waiting? I’m sure he has work to do and watching me sleeps’t one of then.No, Jade. He is not your business anymore. He is having a child with the woman he loves and cheated on you with. This is the last time you’ll worry yourself with his affairs.I nodded to myself, agreeing with the voice in my head.“Jade.” He breathed my name out. He has never spoken to me like that, I couldn’t deny the butterflies that swarmed my stomach at hearing that. But I could pretend him speaking didn’t have any effect on me which is what I did.“Can you please leave?” I said, making sure my voice came out cold.I tried to sit up and a stiffness in my back remi

    ATLASThis couldn’t be real. It couldn’t fucking be happening.I could feel my blood roaring in my ears, my body was shaking but then it all felt like it wasn’t even real. Like I was just imagining this and I really hoped this was a fucking nightmare.“Alpha,” I heard a hesitant voice. It pulled me from my train of thoughts and everything started becoming more real now.I didn’t know my mind had blanked out until she spoke and I was pulled out of my trace. I could hear the voices and all the commotions going on around me.The doctor was still standing above Jade. I didn’t know when my body had moved earlier when she was falling. But my body moved before my mind could register all that was happening.“Do you mind stepping out please, alpha?” The doctor spoke. When I gave her a look, she stepped back and cleared her throat. “You can stay if you want too.”She stepped back and then they started doing more tests.“You still can’t do the surgery now.” The healer spoke, looking to me to sup

    JADEMy head was heavy when I first woke up. I looked around the place confused, wondering how I ended up here. The last thing I remembered was going to my grandma’s room and checking on her. Then…Oh no.The conversation played out in my head again.Atlas’s cool voice and Annie’s ecstatic own.“Look at that. Our baby.” She had said, her voice choking with tears. “He’ll be the most handsome baby with his father’s eyes.”“Well, we can’t tell the gender this early.” Another voice had said, it was a female, she sounded kind of familiar.One of the actors. I told myself. I couldn’t bring myself to move because the entire thing felt like a fever dream and I didn’t want to believe that it was really real. But it was.“Is she okay?” Atlas sounded worried. Concerned.I could see him looking at Annie with so much care. When he only looks at me with disdain.I couldn’t hear more, I ran in the opposite direction and neared the first door I saw. I ended up in the supply closet but I could barely

    ATLASAs much as I wanted to rush through the process of dressing just so I could go back to where Jade was, I forced myself to do everything right. For her sake. I would not want my lack of prepping well because I couldn’t be patient cause harm to her or the baby.A nurse was waiting for me outside after I finished and she took me to the OR where I had to wash my hands again and then wear the full coverings.There were speaking in medical terms I didn’t understand. I just stood back with my hands in Jade’s own, never leaving her side just as I had promised. The doctor was kind enough to explain what they were going to do.“It is a simple procedure, alpha. Your wife and baby will be up and going in no time.” She said with a kind smile, the sides of her eyes crinkling.I nodded, exhaling a breath through my mouth.“Ten blade.” She had moved to Jade’s abdomen and I could feel my wolf moving in my head when I saw the blade she was talking about. His mind didn’t register that this was a p

    ATLASThe reality that the baby was coming made by kind go blank for more than five minutes. It probably wasn’t up to that but it felt like my world had stopped so everything seemed longer than it is in reality. I was excited. Deep down below the worry and fear and everything in between. I couldn’t wait to meet my son. The baby that was half of me and half of Jade. But I wasn’t happy too. Because she wasn’t in the right state of mind right now. And I don’t know how she’ll be when she wakes up. She would be ecstatic. I knew she wanted to experience every part of this. But I guess you plan and then life happens. “We’ll have to get her to the hospital soon. So she isn’t under for too long. It might be bad for the baby and her.” Feyre stood close to me as she explained. Her voice was soft and eyes filled with worry. She hasn’t known Jade for a long time but she as already really protective of her.“Okay.” I swallowed as I said the words. Then gave Jade’s hand a little squeeze. Before
