Alpha Zayne Steele Zayne was pleased when he scored an invitation to a ball that Alpha Thornton was throwing for some long-lost daughter of his or whatever, never mind that. What was important was the perfect opportunity to corner Alpha Thornton and try to get him to listen to reason. Because the man was not returning his calls. And by scored, he means intercepted. About a week ago, they picked up chatter about some grand affair from the Thorntons, which had piqued Zayne's interest. He had immediately sent out willing scouts to investigate the scenery and setting. And by 'investigate the scenery,' he meant to get their hands on an invite to this shindig. His team had sussed out what the chatter was about, then set out on their journey to the location. For this job, though, they had to travel overseas. As luck would have it, they came upon a mail van full of invitations leaving Thornton's compound. The team had managed to follow the van in their rental and got to steal a few in
Aubrianne Ivanov Aubrianne smiled sheepishly, "Oh goodness, Dani, Good Morning. My weekend was quiet and peaceful," which Daniel found strange. With someone like Jada in a house, how does it be quiet and peaceful? Aubrianne broke him out of his train of thought when she poked his shoulder and said, "Now tell me, what the hell is going on?" "Honestly, Aubri, no one expected you to come in today, even this week or at all," Daniel said, shrugging. 'At all?' Aubrianne's eyes went wide, "Daniel, tell me you are joking?" Daniel chuckled in response to Aubrianne's wide eyes and unbelieving demeanor. His eyes slid over Aubrianne, 'magnifique' Cassius spoke. Daniel scoffed inwardly at Cassius and asked, 'So he speaks French now? 'Oui je barbote.' Cassius answered, and Daniel rolled his eyes. Nevertheless, Daniel agreed with Cassius' assessment. Aubrianne looked so cute and hot in her chic business attire, high heels, and hair held together in a low ponytail. Aubrianne blinked up at hi
Jada Wilson Jada eyed Ivan, "I would soon start looking for the perfect spot, meanwhile, because when I return from visiting home with Aubrianne after the ball, I plan to dive straight into this." Ivan focused on the file before him rather than what Jada said. He was intent on seeing what would take his Jada away from him. Jada was brains and beauty. Ivan loved it. When he saw her plans, he could not have been more impressed and a bit surprised, he had to admit. And he immediately started thinking about the ideal spots for something like this, and a business like that would undoubtedly thrive in TL. The Thornton Household "Damn it, Christen, I am here, aren't I?" Theodore snapped! Closing the folder he held in his hands and slamming it down on his vast mahogany desk. His nagging wife was the last thing he wanted to deal with this Monday morning. He went to his home office to grab a few client files and head to TCTA when he was bombarded by his wife and her never-ending complain
The Thornton Household... "Oh, no, no, that is quite alright, Dad. I want to visit. Martha would take me where Mom lived." Aubrianne explains. "Oh, honey, I could have taken you to visit if you wanted to," Theo informs. With an arched eyebrow, Aubrianne asked, "Really?" "Yes, really." Theo nodded. "Ok, I just did not think you would have the time right now for a trip like that," Aubrianne says and shrugs. Aubrianne did not even think of Theo taking her to visit her mother's home right now. She figured she could do this when she saw Martha. It never occurred to her that her father would want to take her or have the time. "Oh honey, even if I don't have the time, I will make the time for you." Theo made it clear. Aubrianne realized her father wanted to be included in these things. Theo wanted to be included in this particular matter, the matter of his daughter being with two witches by herself. Witches that knew what she was. "Ok, Dad, now that I know, I will think of you fi
Shawn Louis Meanwhile, Shawn was in the backyard sniffing around. Aubrianne was lounging by the pool and watching him as she waited for Daniel and Tobias's arrival, assuming he was trying to see if Ron had also been in her home. Checking the perimeter for any lingering or strong scents. 'Goddess, where was this scent coming from?' Shawn was going crazy. This was the second time he smelt the most amazingly alluring, tantalizing scent he had ever smelt. It was like fields of flowers and roses mixed in with spring water. The first time he smelt such a fantastic smell was on Monday morning. He was in his room going through some paperwork he had brought with him when he and John were investigating Ron's whereabouts. His trail had gone cold. Well, now he knew why. It was because Ron was no longer in Clifton Hill. Nevertheless, it was when Aubrianne had poked her head in and bid him farewell, and she left saying, 'Happy hunting.' However, when Aubrianne opened her front door, a scent w
Shawn Louis Never did her body react to someone's voice this way. How does one's body respond in this way just to the sound of someone's voice? Kirrah's entire body had lit up when he growled at Brody for daring to speak to her. It was like warm, soothing radiation that traveled through her and settled at her core. She had steadied herself. Kirrah loved it. 'Possessive.' Hunter had purred, 'I love it.' Just being in his presence, she felt complete. She felt like he was the missing piece to complete her puzzle. Kirrah was twenty-eight, she did not give up on mates wholly, but she must admit she was beginning to wonder if she would ever meet hers. That thought led her towards Brody, but now she was fortunate to have met her other half. She could not wait to tell her family. Kirrah had a sister, and her parents were also alive and well. They all lived in a cozy two-story house at TL Crescent Moon Community. However, these days, she had been bunking out with a small team obliquely
Timothy Thornton Timothy made haste to locate his mother after he tried mind-linking her and got no response. His mind was reeling, and his heart was racing, but he pressed forward in his search. Goddess, he had been so wrapped up in himself, as usual, that he had not noticed his mother was suffering intensely. Sadly, Timothy had no idea if this was since Saturday or if it was an overnight squabble. He was that lost in the happenings with his mother, but he would soon find out. However, these past few days had been busy for Timothy; Timothy had sat and planned out the steps he wanted to take. First, he planned his steps to work out and build his body mass before he started training with the big guys. So he used the opportunity to work out with his father, and by that move, he accomplished two things. One, he got to spend time with his father, and second, it was while he got to build his body mass and muscles. Win, win, in Timothy's book and when he was not working out. Timothy
Timothy Thornton "It's not ready yet to show Dad, as I am awaiting some information to complete it, but what I was able to achieve is enough for you to see my determination, Mom, I promise," Timothy explained nervously as they went to his room. His palms were sweating, and he felt like this was a make-it-or-break-it situation. He hopes for the former. Timothy knew his plans were not ready yet for his father's eyes, as he was still awaiting emails on prices for some of the things that he would need to complete his plans. Nevertheless, he was convinced that once his mother saw what he was working on, she would know he was serious. He also hoped that in light of this change, she would rethink her earlier decision and not do anything selfish and drastic. Not now, of all times! She would not do anything selfish, right? Not when he was this close to impressing his father. How could she only think about herself at a time like this? No, she was his mother. She would not do anything rash
