Rebecca’s story

I wished Dominic had an answer to my question. And it wasn’t the first time I’d asked him this, but each time he avoided the subject. I didn’t know the reason, but it was already frustrating.

I was also the one who gave up looking for explanations. And it wasn’t because I didn’t really want to know, because I felt a tremendous pain in my heart, but because somewhere along the way I realized that this subject was affecting him, too.

The love between us was growing every day. Every second it deepened. And he never missed a moment to show me that. Even if there was this one doubt, my soul was at peace.

I didn’t even feel how this week passed. In between preparations for Emily’s book release and the premiere of Dominic’s movie, I also had some time to meet up with Logan to discuss the progress of the drug case.

And because I had planned to involve Eve in this book project today, I was going to meet with her. I needed her as an ally. She was a very important pawn. She w

    Rebecca’s storyEmily Parker’s book launch day. The place she chose was, as I expected, the Karma ballroom. It seemed so right for her. I was still at Dominic’s house, trying to carefully choose what I was going to wear for the evening. The situation was the same for him. In the end, I chose a knee-length, red dress with straps and lace back. I tied my hair into a bun at the base of my neck with a few curls framing my face.“Wow, you look beautiful, love!” “You’re no less,” I replied, smiling, delighting in how perfect and masculine he looked. The black ebony suit suited him, and the back combed hair made him even sexier. He came closer, as if reading my mind, and reached around my waist, holding me tight. His musky scent was driving me crazy, and he knew it and even took advantage of my weakness for him. “Is your lipstick transfer resistant?” He asked, running his thumb over my lips. As soon as he confirmed this, he seized my mouth in a deep, passionate kiss. I returned his kiss

    Rebecca’s storyEverything was ready for today’s barbecue, right down to my mood. I quickly got over who Olivia was. But I really couldn’t give myself away with so many people there. My undercover mission wasn’t over yet. And because Olivia was in charge of the London branch, she knew about my mission.Now all I had to do was keep it cool. However, I was sure it would be a light day. “They’re here, Dominic! I’ll go greet them,” I said excitedly, heading for the door. I unlocked it and invited them in. “Welcome,” and my eyes met Olivia’s again. I flashed her a wide smile, which I then showed to everyone. “We’re so glad to be here,” Emily replied, holding out her hand first to me and then to Dominic. One at a time, everyone walked past us all and settled comfortably on the terrace. It was a pleasure to have them in our home, especially knowing what tied me to them. “Make yourselves comfortable. I’ll go get some lemonade. In this heat, I suppose it’s perfect. Emily, will you help me?”

    Rebecca’s storyThere were no incidents yesterday, but it passed relatively quickly. It didn’t matter, though, that before we sat down at the table Dominic insisted upon knowing what Olivia and I were talking about, even though in his eyes we had barely met. But I knew how to get out of the situation gracefully, in a woman’s style. “I’m so excited about this day. Aren’t you?” I asked him, smiling. “How could I not be? It’s actually my movie” he grinned softly, placing a kiss on my forehead. I watched him, and the tuxedo he wore made him irresistible. Taking advantage of the situation was entirely his doing because he was fully aware of how attractive he looked. I felt him approaching me gently, like a predator, and pressing my body against the icy wall, I felt him capture my mouth into a fiery kiss. But things have not evolved beyond that. Although we were both panting. “If I don’t stop now, I won’t be able to stop for the next few hours “A shiver ran through my arousing body as I

    Rebecca’s storyI found his voice colder than ice. He could barely contain the urge to punch the man standing so near to me. His blood was boiling in his veins and his stare had turned so evil that I was trying to make eye contact with him to calm him down. At the same time, he might wonder what the hell I was doing with Logan in this part of the hotel, so isolated? I could almost hear these thoughts screaming in his mind. “What the hell are you doing here with her?” He asked, not even noticing that he had raised his voice at me.“I don’t think that’s any of your business, actor!” Logan shot back, and contrary to what I was expecting from doing, Dominic rushed forward with his fist straight into Logan’s jaw. “Dominic, stop!” I shouted, trying to stop him from hitting Logan a second time. Somehow, I placed my frail body between the two of them. And although I expected the fight to continue, Dominic hardly held back. Especially since I knew what a beast was inside him. “Let’s go! Let’

    Dominic’s story“I marked her! I fucking marked her!” My nerves were about to snap. Even Declan and his jokes couldn’t keep me under wraps.I could see he understood and was a little shocked by the news, especially since he already knew this was what I wanted. But he probably didn’t understand the reason for my anger.“You marked her... okay? And isn’t that supposed to be a good thing? Something you were supposed to do?” he looked even more confused, rubbing his barely grown beard. The way he looked at things was the obvious way, but from my perspective, I fucked those things up. I narrowed my eyes and felt them catch fire. “Okay, I take it that not everything went smoothly...” Declan continued, but in a more cautious tone. “Everything went so wrong, Declan!” I snapped, slamming my fist into the table, watching the coffee cups shake. Already, a few curious eyes had turned to us.“Calm down or you’ll attract attention and you don’t want that. Take a deep breath and tell me all about

If only I could turn back time...“Come on, man, the party’s starting. We have to go. You’re the guest of honor. You can’t miss it,” Declan told me, poking his head through the door. “I’m hurrying as fast as I can. If you only knew how much I want this night to be over...” I said, running my hand through my hair, then looking at it, I felt my blood boil. The same hand that I marked Rebecca with.“Look, I know you may not be in the mood any longer, but somehow you have to pull yourself together. I guarantee it’ll pass quickly and you’ll be home soon. You’ll have plenty of time to sort things out with Rebecca. By the way, she’s also invited, I presume.” “Yes, she is, but I’m doubting she’ll even show up,” I replied with regret, gently kicking the mirror table. “Let’s go!” I urged as I rushed towards the exit.

But nothing prepared me for his incomprehensible reaction. “All the legends about us as werewolves and their mates are true. Ever since that night I saved you from death, I’ve claimed you. You were mine from before you even knew you were mine” I wish I hadn’t heard that. “You didn’t just say that! It sounded like that’s what you planned all along. Why didn’t you let them kill me, Dominic? Why did you have to save me? And don’t tell me because you love me, because let me tell you, I can hardly believe you now.” My heart ached hearing him confess this, and I didn’t know what was real and what wasn’t in our relationship.

    REBECCAIt was a breathtaking afternoon; the sun radiating its warm golden rays upon the vast field that stretched out before us. Anticipation filled my body as I stood there, my eyes fixed on the horizon, eagerly waiting for the one I loved, Dominic.Just when I thought it would never answer my longing, there he appeared as if the very fabric of nature had responded to my call. As he emerged from the shadows, Dominic’s appearance shifted, and he transformed into his magnificent werewolf form. The sight of him was simply breathtaking, with his powerful muscles and shiny fur. It glimmered in the sunlight, leaving me momentarily speechless. As I gazed into his eyes, I noticed the sun filled them with an ethereal light that seemed to shine from within him. Our eyes locked onto each other’s, and in that moment, we communicated a profound connection that went beyond what words could express.Immediately and with no delay, I strode confidently towards him, feeling my heart thumping with a

    REBECCAI groaned softly as I slowly opened my eyes, the harsh hospital lights piercing through my dizziness. Blinking a few times, I tried to gather my strength, but everything seemed hazy, like a jumbled puzzle. It took a moment for the fog to lift, and as my vision cleared, I saw Dominic and Declan sitting by my side, their worried faces etched with relief.“What happened?” I said, my voice weak and unfamiliar to my own ears. Dominic leaned forward, his hand gently clasping mine.“You were kidnapped, Rebecca,” he said, his voice filled with a mix of concern and anger. “Zack, that deranged… man, he took you and... and he almost killed you.”Dominic’s words had a chilling effect on me as a shiver ran down my spine. Kidnapped? Almost killed? Although the hospital surroundings were all too real, it felt like a nightmare that I couldn’t wake up from. Despite my best efforts, I found it difficult to recollect the series of events that led up to this moment, as my memory seemed to be a ch

    DOMINICAs I stood before the looming fortress that belonged to the notorious and ruthless Zack Burnet, I couldn’t help but feel a surge of invincibility coursing through my veins. The desolate landscape around me matched the emptiness inside my heart, and I knew I had come here alone for a reason. It wasn’t because I lacked allies or help in my mission to rescue Rebecca, the woman I loved. No, it was because I believed that Zack Burnet owed me a debt that only I could collect.In my teenage years, I had been engaged to Jane, but the actions of her father, Zack Burnet shattered our blissful future. He was a man consumed by power and darkness, and his reckless pursuits had cost me the life of my beloved Jane. It was a wound that festered deep within me, driving me to seek vengeance and justice. And now, as I gazed upon his forsaken fortress, I knew that the time for reckoning had come.The wind howled through the barren landscape, a haunting symphony that echoed my determination. With

    DOMINICIt was surreal; I couldn’t wrap my head around it. The anger and sadness inside me were like a tempest, tearing through my veins. My number one enemy, Zack Barnett, had done the unthinkable—he had kidnapped Rebecca. The evidence was overwhelming, leaving no doubt in my mind that he was the culprit. He had always despised me, always found pleasure in tormenting me, and now he had taken away the one person who meant the world to me.“So you are positive it was that bastard, Zack?” Declan asked, rubbing his jaw.“I am sure of it as I am sure of every breath I take. Now, I have another problem. I’ve been called to the agency in an emergency.” “Why?” “Apparently the head of the intelligence agency has been kidnapped and is nowhere to be found,” The one person who had believed in me from the beginning, who had seen the potential in me and given me the chance to become the best agent I could be, was now in danger.“However, his identity was and still is a secret, Dominic.
