Mabel"I might need you to go back there."That was what Vernon said to me. What did he mean by going back there? We literally just got out! And I asked it out loud, but he didn't seem to care."Tell me how did you get the key.""I... I..."What could I possibly tell him?10 hours agoI was sitting
VernonIt was easy to convince Mabel to go back and pacify Melvin. She was not the brightest, she wasn't like Shannon, but now that I knew she was Melvin's fated mate, it would be a stupid move not to use this. Plus it was for her own good, she was also from the Alpha bloodline, she would need him,
VernonI looked up to see one of the guards had caught up to me."What are you doing here?"I didn't answer him, I twisted his wrist and he screamed in pain but I turned back to use my other hand to cover his mouth and he was on the ground in seconds.I knocked him out to avoid problems.When I got
ShannonWhen I opened my eyes I saw Vernon's tired face right in front of me. It had been a while since I was able to wake up beside him. It was funny that it hadn't been that long since I slept beside him. But I got used to it so soon. When I was in captivity, every day I woke up alone. I couldn't
VernonI hadn't touched Shannon in a really long time. I didn't think I could miss her any more than I already did. Just when I was looking into her eyes, I saw the care and gentleness I had been longing for...Then god damn Adonis had to come at my door, he didn't even have the decency to shut the
VernonI asked Arthur what I needed to get on the road, I was afraid that he might ask some questions I didn't want to answer. But surprisingly he didn't even ask anything. He just gave me what I wanted and wished me luck."Alpha Vernon, where are you going?"Oh shit, I was only thinking about Shann
ShannonShit! He knew.He was driving smoothly, and I was trying my best not to make a sound, but he still knew.A little earlierI stayed in the house and looked outside the window, good, Vernon was talking to Adonis. Would he take Adonis with him? He didn't want to take me but he would take Adonis
His hands started to roam around my body, he went straight for my breast and I almost moaned out loud. I couldn't because he swallowed all the noise I made.He wasn't just satisfied to kiss me on the lips anymore. He moved down to my neck, he nipped down lightly. I could finally breathe freely when
Chapter 115Shannon"I know. But how are you going to do that? If you don't have the secret weapon, you will need all the help you could use."He seemed to be considering what I just said."Yes, but I really don't want to risk you, and that little girl. If you are not going to Arthur's, where do you
Shannon"What do you mean it will need a lot of my blood?""You said it yourself, you need one drop of your blood to light up the rock. But the treasure land is a land. You will need to spill all your blood and maybe some more to get the treasure to unlock. Are you okay with this?"I didn't know. I
VernonI knew my decision not to tell her that my father was the one who made her an orphan would come and bite me in the ass later.But I never expected that the truth would be slapped on her face like this. By a strange guy who was allegedly supposed to be her husband.All I noticed was that I saw
ShannonI said okay because I already saw Adonis standing behind him. Adonis was a little taller than Jayde. I pretended to pick up Isabella and walked over, but no more than two steps, I saw Adonis put him into a headlock.Hugo pushed back and Adonis dropped the knife. I set Isabella down and immed
ShannonBefore I could ask out loud, Vernon was the first to speak."What do you mean gone?""I wanted to check on him after I woke up, and when we walked to the closet, he was already gone..."Fuck, we underestimated him. I remembered we checked on him last night, and that meant at some point last
ShannonI couldn't sleep. I tossed and turned until the midnight blue turned white again. I couldn't stop looking at Isabella who was sleeping peacefully beside me. I knew it was creepy, but I couldn't help but look at her features. And I replied to what Hugo said in my mind.She was my cousin, she
Shannon"What?"I never expected to hear Vernon's name in my family matter..."Didn't he tell you? I expected him not to. Since he brought you here, he knew that you were the heir of the guardian family. In fact, he was the one who told you, right?"I nodded even without thinking. The past 10 minute
ShannonI slowly pushed the door open, making as little sound as possible. Luckily I already checked the door when we were picking rooms. I picked this room because I didn't have to go around any room in case I bumped into Vernon on my way out.I didn't even put on my shoes for this. I supposed ther
Shannon"What do you mean?"Vernon and I asked at the same time. And then we turned to look at each other and shared a look.But that didn't escape Hugo, because he just smiled and shook his head."Oh, nothing. I remember someone from my childhood."This concerned me even more, because Vernon said t
