XADEN

“You got that right. He muscled them into fearful submission and a good number of them even offered to give us the land for free as long as they could just get their children back. The ones who chose to fight back, simply disappeared and were never heard from again. I was surprised when a lot of the slots started opening up, so I investigated a little and to my utmost shock, I found out what he had been doing. I was livid! The contract had been attached to my name and for everything he did, the landlords thought I gave permission for it.”

“You must have felt really bad that a lot of good people got hurt and most of them thought it was your fault.”

“I was beyond furious and when I confronted him about it, he simply mocked my meekness and told me to my face that I didn’t have what it took to get things done and make the investors happy. Like I said, a scoundrel would do anything just to add a few zeroes to his bank account. I preferred not to handle business that way and fired hi

    SORAYAThe days that followed Xaden’s outburst were incredibly strange to say the least. From being the lady of the house, I had been completely relegated to the sidelines and had no choice but to play the role of a supporting character in my own home. I couldn’t tell the difference between my situation and that of a prisoner who simply had a few liberties with no right of objection. The only spark in my otherwise dull and monotonous daily routine was the presence of Kaylee in my life. I held tightly to that singular ray of hope as I schemed and put the wheels of my revenge into motion.I definitely wasn’t going to take such a defeat lying down and the thing with supporting characters was that nobody ever noticed them but they noticed everything. Xaden didn’t mince words when he made his instructions clear and I wasn’t to take one step out of line. I was certain that Celeste thought that would be enough to limit how much I could do but what she didn’t anticipate was the unlikely ally

    SORAYA It was like taking candy from a baby, except it was almost as if this particular baby didn’t even care for candy at all. I was completely surprised at how easy and well that had worked. Melissa however, was still very much frightened and feared for her job, maybe even for her life.The poor thing. I thought as I strained a bowl of brown rice that I had soaked for the better part of the morning. She probably had never done anything quite so treacherous before and simply could not control the guilt that had begun to eat her up. Despite the fact that Celeste had been nothing but insufferable to her since she had moved back in, she still felt it was a grave sin to go against one’s boss. And to go as far as to drug their food, that was simply unforgivable. I could relate to the crisis of loyalty she must have been feeling. I’d had the same feeling and I couldn’t possibly remember the exact moment I had lost my sense of self righteousness but I knew that desperate times called for a

    SORAYA I psyched myself, taking in a deep breath as I prepared for what I was about to do. Xaden had returned home from work a little while back and of course, he had already settled in the living room with Celeste. I felt nothing as they giggled and laughed, enjoying each other’s company. The more he had chosen to avoid me and push me away like some sort of plague, the more I felt nothing when it came to him. I was completely indifferent to how he lived or what he did, all I wanted was to win against Celeste. I just couldn’t give her the satisfaction of thinking she had me beaten and bloodied. As I pushed open the door and entered the living room, I still felt nothing when the laughter died and the look on Xaden’s face completely turned into a deep frown.“What are you doing in here?!” He called out before I’d even made my way over to them.I said nothing, I just kept on walking till I stood directly in front of them.“Have you suddenly gone deaf? I said what are doing...”“Can I p

    XADEN I had stood on the pavement of the balcony and watched with contempt as Celeste was bundled into the car and carted off. She hadn’t stopped begging and pleading for forgiveness, even as I dragged her out by the hair. I was genuinely intrigued by what she thought she could have achieved by pleading with me and I simply concluded that she must have been extremely deluded if she ever thought there was a world I would have forgiven her for everything she had done. I had given George the express instruction of simply locating the nearest bus station he could find to drop her off. Frankly, I felt giving her a ride at all was a kindness she definitely did not deserve but I needed to be sure that she was off my property for good.I had been so furious with her that I didn’t even afford her the dignity of packing her belongings or taking any of the bags she came with. If my anger was sated sometime in the future, I might have them sent to her but if not, I would make sure to burn every

    JEREMY In no time, she would be mine. Soon, Soraya would be back in my arms again. I thought to myself as I sat expectantly in the chair of my home office, staring at the phone and waiting on Celeste’s call. First, I was going to take his land and then I would take his mate. Xaden would never know what had hit him and by the time he finally realized that I had taken him for a fool, it would be far too late.His devastation would be the manifestation of my much needed revenge, if only Celeste would just get off her ass and get me what I wanted. It had been almost four days since our last meeting and she already confirmed having knowledge of the location of the deeds, including the combination to the safe.Honestly, I would have been lying if I said I wasn’t incredibly surprised she was able to get it so quickly. Xaden was definitely slipping and he was slipping bad. The Alpha I had known all those years ago would have never been so easily manipulated.But why then is she taking so d

    JEREMY “The better question should be what the fuck hasn’t happened Jeremy?” She asked, glaring viciously at me.“What are you talking about? You aren’t making much sense to me right now.”“I need a stiff drink first of all. Then we can talk.”I moved over to a hanging cabinet before pulling on the handle to reveal to mini sized bar.“Help yourself.” I said and watched as she picked the most expensive looking scotch before chugging it directly from the bottle.She had gulped about a third of its content before setting it on the table as she took a seat on one of the couches.“So,” I began. “Are you going to tell me what this is all about?” I asked, taking a seat beside her.“Sure Jeremy, I’ll tell you all about it. When you picked the Cafe for our meeting, didn’t you assure me that you had your men watching the entire place like hawks and it would be safe to talk freely?” “It was safe to talk freely. What the hell are you talking about?”“Safe? Did you just say safe? If it was so sa

    SORAYA It was almost a week since Celeste had been very much ceremoniously and violently evicted from Xaden’s house but the memories of her presence here still lingered on in my mind. I had simply been unable to get over how and why Xaden had been able to fall victim to her obvious schemes and manipulation but I knew that no matter how angry I was, it was nothing compared to how angry he was at himself. He hated himself for being a pawn in her silly game and he hated himself even much more for how he had treated me. He never missed a moment to show me how sorry he was and how he wished he had handled things much differently. It was almost like falling in love again for the first time but while you played hard to get, the other person simply kept going overboard with everything they did, all in a bid to get your attention. The constant adulation, the corny romantic gestures, the pining and obsession over every little need of mine. If I was being completely sincere, I really apprecia

    SORAYAThe surprise had been on my mind all day. The classes had gone by in a blur and even as I sat in the back of the SUV, on my way home, I still couldn’t help but obsess over what he had planned. George was quite the speedy driver even while maintaining the speed limit but I wished right now, more than anything that he would just step on it and get us home faster. Kaylee was already fast asleep beside me and it was probably not the best parenting to want George speeding with a kid onboard but still, I was curious and you couldn’t even blame me. Considering all I had been through, I deserved to be spoiled till I couldn’t take it anymore.We got home in less than five minutes and as I alighted, Melissa was already waiting by the entrance for me.“Good evening ma’am. I trust you had a pleasant day?” She asked as she reached out to take Kaylee from me.“It dragged on for too long.” I blurted. “Is Xaden in?”“Yes, the boss is in but he’s asked that you freshen up in your room and put o

    SORAYA ONE YEAR LATERSo this was what bliss felt like. It was everything I had heard it would. A mate whom I had gone through hell and back with, a daughter we both would give our lives for without hesitation and a happiness that knew no bounds.Xaden was the mate he had promised me he was going to be. “Earth to Soraya…” I heard him whisper in my ear. His hands held firmly against my waist. I didn’t realize when he got so close to me. “What’s wrong, love?”Nothing is.I turned around to face him and met his gaze. “Sometimes, I still feel like she's going to show up.” I answered. I knew she was gone, there was no way she could have survived the poison but still, at the back of my mind, there was once in a while this nagging feeling. Xaden sighed and shook his head, cupping my face as he did so. “Have I given you any reason to feel so?” I shook my head. “Nothing, and absolutely no one is going to come between us again. I love you, Kaylee and our little boy…” he said as he dropped on

    XADEN“Of course not. I loved you Evan and I really wanted to be with you. Killing you was completely Malcolm’s idea. He wanted the connections that came with being married to Xaden so he forced me to go along with all of it. I felt like I had no choice, you really have to be believe me Evan.”I couldn’t help but chuckle at the load of bullshit she was spewing all in a bid to save her worthless life. Hopefully this Evan guy saw right through it.“You loved me?” He asked and I felt my blood boil at what a stupid question it was.“What the hell are you doing Evan? You can’t possibly believe that Celeste ever loved you!”“Let her speak!” He bellowed. “Come here Celeste. You really wanted to spend your life with me?”I could only watch in anger as Celeste made her way to him, holding him in a warm embrace as she spewed more lies.“I’ve spent every minute of everyday thinking about you since Malcolm had forced me into that heinous act. I’m really sorry I wasn’t bold enough back then to spe

    XADEN I thought to myself as I tiptoed slowly to get a good idea of whom it was, she was fighting with. The fella seemed to really be in quite the sour mood but I was still unable to make out the voice clearly. I decided that there was no point sneaking around, I hastened my steps and headed straight for the living room.Upon opening the door, I was greeted with the sight of the kind of vermin I never thought I’d ever have the displeasure of seeing again.“What the fuck are you doing in my house?! You sacrilegious sack of shit!” I yelled as I found Jeremy in my living room, about to pounce on Celeste.“Xaden!” She screamed. “Be careful, he’s gone completely crazy! He keeps saying...”“Shut up Celeste!” I snarled. “You did this! How could you let this unrefined buffoon into my house?”“What did you just call me?!” He turned to face me and I finally got a good look at him. He looked dastardly, almost inhuman as he was beginning to appear like some unholy alchemy of man and beast.I kn

    XADEN It had been almost three days since I’d heard last from Soraya and I could feel the fear, slowly creeping in. It was unlike her to stay radio silent and even on the days she didn’t feel like talking, she would always try to send a message at least.I looked at my watch and saw that it was past 7am already. Three days and not a peep, it definitely wasn’t looking good. I went for a quick run, in the hopes of clearing my head. I didn’t want to entertain the wild thoughts that were beginning to plague my mind.When I got back to the house, Celeste was already waiting in the kitchen. I had been hellbent on avoiding her all week and she was almost never awake this early in the morning. I winced, knowing I’d inadvertently walked into a well calculated trap. “Good to see you can still show your face.” She spat out derisively. “I thought you finally decided to run after Soraya like the lovesick puppy you’ve proven to be.”I steadied myself, choosing to remain calm and silent as I too

    EVAN“I honestly can’t believe this. Celeste actually tried to have you murdered because she wanted to be with Xaden?”“To her, I was simply an obstacle. A mere nuisance that she had to get rid off so she could enjoy the splendor and lifestyle that came with being married to a man like Xaden. She poisoned me while I was asleep and thinking I was dead, her father bundled me into his car and they drove deep into the woods to bury me. When I came to, I tried to beg Celeste for help. That was my biggest mistake. They pummeled me with their shovels till they thought I’d stopped breathing and buried me in a shallow grave.”I took a deep breath and looked up at her. She seemed completely lost for words. “You shouldn’t look so surprised. I mean, she poisoned your two year old daughter. Such a person is capable of doing anything.”“I know Celeste can be ruthless but I always thought she became this way over the years. This incident happened more than ten years ago. I’m just surprised that she’

    EVAN“That’s what the nurse said but I doubt there’s much you would be able to do for her.” She said in her tone that was completely crippled by fear and resignation.“Well, this is an hospital ma’am. Why are you so certain that we would be unable to get her the help the needs?” I asked, doing my very best to sound as genuinely oblivious as I could. I was fishing for information and I didn’t want to spook her just yet.“I know you won’t be able to save her because this has happened before and the doctors who attended to her then were just as clueless. All they did was stabilize her but it was only a half measure. Without the antidote, she wouldn’t be alive for long.” As she spoke, I could feel the weight behind every word, the immense gravity behind each statement and I couldn’t help but feel sorry for all the pain she had to be going through in that moment.“Well, I’ll advise you don’t give up hope just yet. Things like this always have a way of working out in the end.”“I don’t need

    EVANEven as I held on to the hospital file, I still found it hard to believe what I was reading. The file had the biodata as well as the personal information of a two year girl who was rushed in on account of a terrible high fever and loss of consciousness of a one day duration but it was the name of the patient I found most intriguing.Could it really be possible? I looked through the name again as bewilderment washed over me, Kaylee Sinclair. I flipped to the page that had the information on the parents and primary care givers.The father was a Xaden Sinclair and the mother, Soraya Summers. I couldn’t help but feel a bit jittery as a wave of excitement surged through my entire body, filling me with an immeasurable sense of glee.If this turns out to be accurate, then my opportunity had finally come.As I leaned against the counter of the nurses’ station, I went through the previous bloodwork of the patient, trying my best to make sense of what I was reading but I still couldn’t get

    CELESTE “He fooled you, Celeste. I, on the other hand was a fool for ever thinking you were competent enough to get anything done.”“There’s no way I could have known. How can you possibly blame me for this?”“I don’t give a fuck how you get information from Xaden but the least you can do is verify and make sure it’s at least authentic before sending me on a wild goose chase.”“What’s done is done Jeremy. The blame game isn’t going to do anyone any good. She could be anywhere, so I suggest you had better forget about her and best move on.”“What’s done is done? Is that what you just fucking said to me?” He asked in a much tamer and colder tone. It was more unnerving whenever he spoke like this compared to the yelling and shouting.“There’s nothing that can be done. Xaden isn’t going to give up the information. They could be anywhere in the country. Even if they were still in the city, which I highly doubt, it would still be almost impossible to find them. So what can you do?”He rema

    CELESTE “Your intel was complete horse shit! Are you trying to fuck me over Celeste? We had a deal!” Jeremy’s voice rang out angrily as I switched the call to hands-free and tossed it on the bed.“What the hell are you yapping about? It’s fucking 8am in the morning Jeremy. Who even calls someone this early in the morning?” I asked sleepily as I tried to find my morning voice.“Well, unlike you, some of us have to work for everything we own. We don’t just get rich through blackmail and manipulation.”“Watch your fucking mouth Jeremy! You don’t speak to me that way. Instead of being this much of an insufferable prick, why don’t you tell me what’s gotten your pants in such a twist?”“Wow! Look at the millionaire growing wings all of a sudden. You’re now telling me how and how not to speak to you? Insane!”“Please why did you wake me up so early? I need to get back to sleep!”“I guess it’s easy for you to sleep when you’ve got everything you ever wanted. So you feel you can now screw me
