SORAYA

Xaden stopped and turned but only motioned for me to go ahead with what I had to say without saying a word.

“Why our bedroom?” I asked, genuinely unhappy. “Why did you have to set up and nurse Celeste in our own matrimonial bedroom Xaden? Why don’t you realize how disrespectful that is to me?”

Xaden seemed to ponder on my words. Actually taking them in and processing them. His expression softened but he didn’t move a muscle.

“I do not do this out of disrespect to you Soraya. I’m doing this out of appreciation for Celeste. That is all Soraya. She saved your life and because of that, I am beholden to her. I gave my fucking word Soraya” He said with a sombre tone and I realized that he actually believed what he said. He was actually just standing by his word to Celeste but he was still allowing himself to be manipulated and it pissed me off. Celeste was using his belief against him and he was unwavering in his decision.

“But you could have set her up somewhere else. Anywhere else

    XADENDid I make the right decision? I thought as I skipped down a small flight of wooden stairs to the basement. Soraya seemed to be extremely unhappy with my choice to accommodate Celeste and a part of me could relate to her resentment. It was rather odd to say the least but I really wished she could understand where I was coming from—I mean, the woman did save her life. I hated fighting with her and I hated it more that Kaylee had to witness all of that. She may not be old enough to understand what was going on or why mummy and daddy were yelling at each other but it still wasn’t a good look. Hopefully, all of this would blow over soon and Soraya could come to appreciate Celeste and maybe even tolerate her. I know I did. I was beginning to see a side of Celeste I hadn’t seen in years. The side of her that wasn’t so spiteful and petty. I was beginning to see the friend and partner that I had formed a marriage pact with all those years ago. When she was much warmer and highly protec

    XADEN“Celeste..” I began. “I think we need to make it clear exactly what this is and what it isn’t.” I watched her closely before continuing. “I chose to agree to this arrangement because I sincerely believe you saved Soraya’s life only due to the partnership and friendship we once shared. There isn’t a world where anything can ever happen between us again, I have found my mate and I cannot overemphasize that. I don’t want to give you the wrong idea.”Celeste was quiet only for a moment before standing up. “I was just kidding Xaden.” She began, laughing shortly. ”You do not need to explain the bond between mates to me and I am eternally grateful to you and Soraya for agreeing to accommodate me. I can understand how awkward this must be, especially for her.”“It’s fine, Soraya would come around. So you were just pulling my legs?” I asked, still unsure.“Of course I was Xaden. I would never overstep like that. You have my word. I just thought I’d fuck with you a little bit.” She said a

    XADENBreakfast pretty much ended uneventfully and Soraya had already taken Kaylee back to the nursery. After a meal like that, she would probably be out till noon. I had helped myself to another cup of coffee and was still sat at the dining, sipping as I tried to get a read of the morning paper. Family of five killed at Lupine gardens following an unfortunate mountain lion attack.I knew the rogue attack would be blamed on wild animals. Humans preferred the safety of their own assumptions rather than face the harsh reality of werewolves living amongst them. It was probably better that way for everyone.I heard footsteps coming down the stairs, it was probably Celeste.“Good morning Xaden. I really hope there’s still food for me, I’m as hungry as a motherfucker.” She said as she walked in the kitchen.I couldn’t help but laugh. “Of course there is, we’re not fucking savages you know. You just missed Soraya and Kaylee by the way.” I said, still sipping my coffee.“Probably for the bes

    SORAYA I had just given the performance of a lifetime. I thought to myself as Xaden took his leave, walking out of the nursery. I didn’t enjoy being deceitful to him but it wasn’t like he gave me much of a choice. Besides, what was I going to tell him, that I was already aware of what took his best trackers all night to figure out? And I hadn’t told him? His ego wouldn’t handle it well and he probably wouldn’t believe me anyways. Not when it still crucially involved Celeste. He appeared incredibly on edge as he walked out and Xaden was rarely ever on edge, dare I say he was never on edge. I have seen him worried before, angry to the point of rage and even spiteful, but I had never seen him frightful. There was definitely more to this feud he had with Jeremy than meets the eye and I knew it went way beyond me and Kaylee. That was however going to be a discussion for a later date, I wasn’t too hung up about it. It wasn’t a new thing for Alphas to constantly be at loggerheads, especial

    SORAYA I exhaled gently as the relief washed over me. Anything that got her to wake up right now must also be prepared to feed her. She was definitely eating a lot more as she was maturing. The downside of raising a child I guess and I still wouldn’t exchange it for anything in the world, not for all the money in the world.Recently, I had been plagued with a disturbing anxiety that I simply couldn’t shake off. It was the kind of nervous feeling that clung to me like a fleece and I was constantly worried about her. If Celeste were to win and anything were to happen to me, she would have to grow up with Celeste as her care giver and the thought of that sent shivers down my spine. The thought of Celeste being the mother to my daughter left such a bitter taste in my mouth that I couldn’t help but gag whenever I imagined it. Of course Xaden would be here, but with his lecturing job at the Lupine institute and the various contracts he would be handling, he would hardly be present. Celeste

    SORAYA “Mamaaa.....!!!”I woke up with a startle as Kaylee’s cries jolted me out of dreamland. Shit! I could have sworn that I had just shut my eyes a moment ago. I looked at my watch, it was almost a quarter past 1pm, I couldn’t believe I dozed off for that long.I picked Kaylee up and rocked her gently, swaying her rhythmically from side to side. She still wasn’t stopping, she must be incredibly hungry.“There, there..” I hummed, as I pat her gently on the back and stroked her hair.I slowly made my way to the door, tossing the book I was reading on the chair and picked up her bag. I had barely touched the handle of the door before it flung open and I was greeted with the unwelcome image of Celeste. For some reason, she was looking pissed.“I heard her crying from the living room.” She began, eyeing me before focusing her sights on Kaylee. “Shouldn’t you have been here with her? Where were you?”The nerve on this woman though. If it wasn’t so annoying, I would have applauded it! I

    SORAYAAbout an hour later, Xaden walked in and I have half expected Celeste to come running down to report me. At this point, I wouldn’t put it past her.“Hey baby. You good?” He asked as he took his seat beside me and kissed me on the cheeks.“I’m great, I didn’t know you went out.”“Yes, I went to see about those enforcers and I got you a new driver. You are not to go anywhere without him. I’ve personally vetted him and he’s to keep his eye on you at all times.” He said, with a tone of finality. “At all times!”I bit my lip, I was so going to break that rule, starting today at least.“I mean, as long as you insist.” I said, giving him my most convincing look.“I am insisting and I’m dead serious.”“Really? I wouldn’t have guessed.” I said, smiling sarcastically at him.He smiled back, he couldn’t help it. He reached out to me and drew me in for a kiss. A longer one this time around.“You know I love you right?” He asked as he let go.“I know and I love you too.”“I just want to kee

    CELESTE“Arrgghhh!!!” I couldn’t help but yell as I walked into the bedroom and kicked away at a chair, sending it flying across the room. I drew out my claws and started unleashing my anger on the drapes and tapestry, ripping them to shreds. I was beyond furious and I had basically made a mess of the entire room in rage.That bitch! Now she’s done it. What right did she have to speak to me that way? All I did was show concern for her child and she just couldn’t help herself, she had to rub my face in the fact that I had none of my own. This was my home before it ever became hers. I would definitely get my revenge on her.I was so mad right now that just getting her out of the house didn’t seem like it would be good enough for me anymore. I was beginning to warm up to the idea of actually killing her. Xaden would be mine again and I could raise Kaylee as my own. I would definitely be a better mother than Soraya could ever dream of being. It wouldn’t be easy though, Xaden would scorch

    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
