{ Olivia } I can't believe I'm actually doing this. It was such a hasty decision that I haven't even finished thinking about it yet, but I can't even regret it because the whole damn clan is witnessing this. It's now or never. ➿ Yesterday ➿ "I don't need all this, guys,” Clara complains as we all enter her room as the sad squad. It still smells like Daniel in here and it makes my whole insides churn with hatred, but I manage to stop it. I sit on the bed next to Carolina, "Guys, seriously. It's not a big deal. I don't even know him, I don't care what happens to him. It's not like... it’s not like I love him or something." Her voice cracks on that last word and she starts crying loudly, breaking my heart. It must be incredibly confusing to feel so much for a man she doesn't even know. At least I got to feel all that for my long-time crush. We let Clara cry and try to make her feel better, but the truth is that no one really knows what to say because there is nothing that can mak
After my father says goodbye to his clan, we go back inside the chapel and I get hugs and congratulations from everyone, including Clara, who still looks super sad but I think it's not because of us. "Can you let go of your hate for me now?" she asks as she’s hugging me and that makes me feel like the stinkiest shit in the universe. I’ve been such a bad sister to her and all because my jealousy. I hug her with all I have, lifting her a little bit and making her squeal, "Oli! Put me down!" "I'm so sorry, sis. I'm sorry for saying all the horrible things I said about you... and the even more horrible things I thought about you," I admit, earning an annoyed look from her, "Can you forgive me? Please?” "If you asked me a day ago, I'd probably say no," she begins and gives me a sad smile, "But now I have a new perspective on how you felt and I forgive you because I think I understand. And I'm really sorry I held on to Daniel, I didn’t know what it was like to have a compatible alpha, I h
{ Daniel } This is my fault, is the first thing I think as I watch Gerard in the cell where Rodrick should be. I can't move for several seconds and then I bend down to make sure Gerard is okay. "He took my uniform and my shoes," he groans as I check that he's not hurt in any way. Apparently, he's just sedated, "Sorry, boss. Louis stayed outside, he didn't come in to back me up. The alpha attacked me when I was going to sedate him and managed to inject me. It was my mistake. I got overconfident, I wasn't careful enough." "Are you okay?" I ask and when he nods, still looking down in shame, I stand up, "This is bad, Gerard. Very bad. But we’ll talk about it later." I don't wait for him to answer, I just walk out of the cell to the one on the side. The beta is sitting on his bed and looks at me with interest when he sees me through the window. I hit the button to disable the soundproof system. "Where is your brother? Where did he go?" "I don't know," he answers, looking honest, "
We go back to the monitors to keep trying to identify the moment when Rodrick comes out of somewhere but once again we don't see him anywhere. It’s like he’s a ghost. I leave Frank analyzing the monitors and return to the first floor closet, again there is nothing for an alpha his size to hide in, except maybe the air duct. The opening is really tightly shut, I need to grab a slim tool to get right in the tiny crack and breaking it open, just to make sure he’s not here. Once I manage to open it, it becomes obvious that Rodrick can't be here because it was sealed, it had never been opened before. I grunt because I can’t believe Im losing time doing this dumb shït. I close the duct again and head for the stairs. I go up to the second floor, where there’s an open window, but if he had jumped out, we would have seen him on the cameras. I go up to the third floor and there's absolutely nothing here, up to the fourth floor and here's another duct, except this one is open. As soon as
As soon as the door closes behind him, I grab my pillow and I scream into it. Stupid fücking alpha, I hate him. I am not a kid, I'm a woman... a woman hurt and traumatized because of him. How dare he say those things to me and then just walk away? I stay there for a while drowning in my misery but then decide I don't want to be miserable anymore. I get up to wash my face and go back downstairs, expecting to see Daniel sitting in the living room or out on the backyard, but he's nowhere to be found. Robbie and my mother are cooking dinner while Lucinda sits at the table, massaging her temples as if she's extremely stressed. Meanwhile, Robbie is moving around the kitchen like a housewife on steroids. Does he love being a walking stereotype? "Have you seen Daniel?" I ask, trying to sound like I don't care that much. Robbie turns to look at me and glances down at my bare neck, his eyes lingering on the mark. I can smell a tiny hint of envy on his scent and my eyebrows rise in surprise
{ Olivia } Daniel looks dirty on his knees, especially when I manage to pull down my panties and he lifts my shirt to make me take it off, too.Daniel smiles when that happens and moves back a little so he can look at my naked body for a few seconds before he carefully lifts one of my legs to give himself room in between them.As soon as I feel his breath in my already wet pussy, my eyes roll back and I have to grit my teeth. Daniel licks and kisses me gently, like he thinks I'm made of porcelain, but once I grab his hair and force him to go harder, he goes full on eating out mode. Daniel doesn't stop or look uncomfortable even when I pull on his head, he just keeps eating me out… until I say I'm going to come and he pulls away completely. I fücking hate when he does this. "No! Why?" I complain, dropping my head to the wall. Daniel laughs at me and when he stands up, he strips off too and pulls me towards the shower. "Because I want to fuck you," he replies shamelessly, and turn
Frank is not coping well with this, not one bit. He destroyed my office and my computer, nearly broke my window and I even thought I had to sedate him at one point, but my father-in-law got all his aggression out and then calmed down. The guys guarding the borders reported a car like the one Rodrick was driving leaving the clan at five thirty, two hours ago. And after a little investigation, we found out that the car belongs to Hellen Briar, a worker of ours. As soon as I was told her name I remembered who she is and suddenly I started to understand things better.Hellen is the beta who I forced into the air duct. In desperation, I left before I made sure she got out of the ducts, but now I think I know what happened. I don't think Rodrick ever got out of the ducts, he just made me think he got out to confuse me. And he took Hellen prisoner with the gun he took from Gerard. Somehow he used her to escape and I can't believe one man played us all like that.While Frank is putting tog
When I finish talking to the beta and come out of the cell, Lucinda decides to finally remind me that we’re not living in the last century and that she’s married to someone who could end all our problems in a second. Lucinda talks to her husband for a little bit to explain what we need from him, then rolls her eyes and hands me the phone. "Are you stupid, Daniel? Why didn't you tell me before that Clara had her phone with her?" he demands as soon as I have the cell phone on my ear. "Because I have a lot on my mind." I excuse myself, earning an annoyed huff from him and then I remain silent for a couple of seconds while Robbie does his thing. This fills me with new hope. Could it really be that easy? "Her phone is disconnected," he mumbles a couple of seconds later, "Her last connection was three hours ago. Since then, her phone has been off. Give me a couple of seconds and I'll send you the location of her last connection." Well, it’s not perfect, but it's something. I end the
Hello Everyone, this is your author speaking :} Laurie and King's story is over, but this is not the end of them. We'll still get to see their new life in my next book: "A Healer For The Alpha" in which we’ll get to see the love stories of Rio and then Alex. The Taffy boys still have a long way to go. The book will be available on my profile soon, make sure you're following me so you'll know when that happens. Thanks for reading ➿ one month later ➿ { Kingsley } "Please, just... meet me halfway," Laurent begs, looking completely stressed and defeated. He's sitting at the desk in his new office in the chapel, trying to close the hardest deal of his life... convincing Alex to forgive him, "Please, dude. You have no idea what you're putting me through. You're totally taking advantage of my love for you." "I've already said what I needed to say," Alex repeats, stubborn as ever, crossing his arms. I can only shake my head and settle better on the couch. This wil
I spend the rest of the day taking a tour of the whole clan with Laurie. To be honest, it doesn't look as bad as someone might think. I mean, it is bad, the streets aren't clean, the parks and woods aren't taken care of, there isn't as much security around, there aren't as many businesses and it just doesn't have the rich vibe of Fallonmore, but I trust we can take it there. I need to take it there or I won't like living here. We get to the mall in the afternoon, although it's really just a small plaza with ten stores, absolutely pathetic and sad. They don't even sell the good stuff and it's not full of people like in Fallonmore; they’re always shopping like the world is going to end over there, but we still manage to find formal outfits for tomorrow because Laurent definitely can't introduce himself to his new clan while he's still wearing clothes with the Fallonmore logo on them. We also bought new cell phones and food and spent the rest of the day in Laurent’s old (new?) apa
"Wow... this was not what we expected at all. You really never know what life has in store for you. Congratulations, Laurie. I always knew your destiny was going to be amazing," my grandfather says with a smile and reaches over to pat me on the back. "No! Grandpa, I don't want this," I admit, looking at everyone for help, "No. No." "Congratulations on accomplishing what I never could. And you didn’t even fucking try. That's so damn great," my Uncle Rodrick blurts out through his teeth, pretending to smile, sitting next to my mom and rubbing her back while she's still in shock, "Totally great. I'm so happy for you." "Can you move away? Your envy is making me nauseous," my mom complains, making my Uncle squint at her with annoyance, "What does this mean, Alessandro? Can he do this from Fallonmore?" "Of course not, Olivia. This is his territory now. He has to live here," my father states and comes closer to grab my shoulders, "This is happening, Laurent. You made a decision and thes
When the interrogation is over we can finally eat and the conversation becomes normal because Diory comes down to sit with us. Rio suddenly appears to bring Laurie's car and takes the opportunity to sit down to eat with us. "Where's Alex?" Laurie asks. "Angry at life, but especially at the two of us and Uncle Daniel," he mutters. Daniel and Lucinda share a tired look, "He left this morning without telling me where, he's probably crying under some bridge." "Alex is at my house with Phi, he's not crying under any bridge," Rodrick replies. "Even worse, he's so depressed he's deciding to spend time with the little ones," Rio blurts out, grimacing sadly. Diory throws something at him, "He wouldn't talk to me at all yesterday, he even left our room to sleep somewhere else.” "Alex has to understand that things are different now," Lucinda says, "He couldn't go with you guys and I know that sucks, but rules are rules. There are no omegas in security for a thousand reasons, it's for his o
{ Kingsley }With my mom's help I manage to stop this damn crying fit. Everything that happened came crashing down on me on the way back and I think without my mom's help I wouldn't have been able to stop crying for hours and hours, as usual, but now I'm starting to calm down. Olivia’s hysteria is also helping me calm down because it made me laugh to see her attack and hug Laurie at the same time. My mate really did something super freaking stupid, but he made it through in the end. That's all that matters now. My alpha mom grabs me in her strong arms and hugs me, kissing me all over like I'm a literal puppy and scenting my head. "You're grounded," she says after I get the biggest love attack. "What?! Why?" "Because you worried me too much and you don’t do that to your mother. You can't go anywhere but home and Laurent's house until my heart is working properly again," she states and I know that even though it's ridiculous, she's being serious. My moms and Laurent's parents
The stress of the situation is causing the tranquilizer effect to wear off me a bit, at least enough to be able to move my arms. I manage to cover my face as I sob in fear and just keep praying because it's all I can do at this point. The sounds are getting worse and worse by the second, not to mention that the potent scent of fear coming from Rio is making me feel even worse. I don't know how much time has passed, but when I hear one last whimper of pain coming from a wolf and then a collective gasp, my world stops. But... I'm not dead. Or am I? "Oh, my fucking god," Rio blurts out and his scent of fear suddenly changes to relief. That's all I need to realize that my mate won. Rio stops pushing my head and I can now hold myself upright, so I manage to turn and see how my Alpha is standing from the ground still in his animal form while Christian's brown wolf lies motionless underneath him. He is dead. My weak legs lose the fight and I fall to the ground on my knees as
My father gets out of bed as soon as I say that and he listens attentively to the whole thing without wasting a single second asking dumb questions. He immediately grabs his phone to call the borders while my omega dad is just staring at us from his bed with big eyes, breathing heavily. "Kingsley Seong left the clan with Christian Roade," one of the guards says from the phone. Every hair on my body stands up anxiously and I start growling from my chest as I confirm that this fucking asshole really came back to the clan just to grab my mate and take him away from me, "Why, boss?" "How could you let that happen? Kingsley is being taken against his will," my father exclaims, walking over to put on some pants without letting go of the phone. "I don't think so, sir. Kingsley was sitting in the passenger seat, completely lucid." I shake my head. No way. No way. My father ends that call and walks over to grab me by the shoulders. "We'll go get him, Alpha. Don't doubt it, we'll get him
✨ Hello, this is your author speaking, the end of this book is very near. There’s only a few more chapters to go and this story will be over. But we can’t leave the twins forgotten, of course. They will have their own book and their own stories soon. Hope you’re ready for that, and make sure you’re following me so you can get a notification when I post their new book ✨ { Kingsley } 'I miss you, baby. I shouldn't have come with the girls :(' I text Laurent when I can't fight against my feelings anymore. Of course it's fun to be with my best friends, but suddenly my wolf started feeling extra needy and I'm getting infected by his desire to be with our Alpha and sleep with him, with his overgrown body on top of me. We basically didn't spend any time together today, just the fifteen minutes at the restaurant before the girls showed up and made me feel bad for forgetting our bestienniversary. For a long time Laurent doesn’t reply, so I keep texting him. He's probably still with
"Play nice, okay? Trust me," I say to the twins and they don't seem to like it very much, but they have no choice but to agree because I park my car behind Christian’s and get out to greet him with a handshake and a half hug. I do the same to Devin, too, trying to control my wolf. Now I'm really thankful King isn't here. I don’t think I’d be able to stay this calm if I saw Christian lusting after him. "What's up, dude? What’s this surprise about?" I ask, looking at my house. My parents are in there and I know they're not going to be happy if they know he's in our clan. Even though I know there's no real reason to distrust Christian, something about him screams trouble. "I just wanted to come check on you. You left so suddenly, I thought it was weird," he mentions, looking at me with a frown as if trying to figure out what's different about me. I know my scent has changed since King bit me, maybe that's what he's picking up on. "There were some family issues here, I had to come r
