Kate's POVLying on the bed, I looked at him as he slipped his pants back into his waist. He was a beautiful man, and I could not help but admire him. Never in my life did I think I would ever look at Luke in that manner, right from the first day that my father introduced me to him, I knew he was a handsome man, but then, he never really caught my eyes since all my life I have always been in love with Richard. However, after what happened between us in the bathroom, I felt different. I knew he was my father's friend and getting involved with him was not right because he was on the same side as my father. Nevertheless, that did not stop me from doing what I did. I better not tell Amelia about this, otherwise, she was going to use it against me, who knows she might even be mad at me. I bet she was teasing me back in the bedroom, and did not really mean anything she said back there.“I thought you were going to sleep over” I tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “Wouldn't you want me t
Luke's POVStanding at the door, I rang the doorbell. I was a little bit nervous. Last night I professed my desire to make babies with Kate. However, the little witch did not really say anything to me and just laughed over it, turning off her lights. She wished me a good night as I walked away.I was back in her house this morning. Uncle Jared wanted to take me around the park and introduce me to some of his friends. I wasn't really in for it, but then I could not say no to him. He was a father figure to me and the one my mother had kept under his now that she was no more.Not as if I needed a babysitter or something, but I was in a different land that I had not been back to in so many years, so I would definitely need someone here who would be able to help me out. I don't know the Alpha. However, I have heard that Alpha Laurent, or whatever his name wasa selfish bastard, he was ruthless and known for his many killings within the region and across.I Inhaled the roses once again when
Luke's POVI cleared my throat. She was making me uncomfortable with what she was doing while she was enjoying it, and I was glad that she found pleasure in doing that to me. It only shows that she wanted me the second time and perhaps there might be a third time and that man Damon has no place in her life. I really hope that I was the only man she would ever want to do those things that I did last night to her with, if there is another man I swear that I will lose my mind.“I have already arranged the clothes we are going to use for the dinner today in the Alpha's house if you haven't, I have asked one of my tailors to arrange something for you. You only just have to go and pick it up later this evening. I'm sure you're going to like it and even the stylist for your head and your beards”“I can help him with that, I know a perfect place you can get his beard cut, that's if he needs it” Kate chimes in and I clear my throat. She was so comfortable talking but I wasn't comfortable at al
Luke's POVI took off my shoes, dragging my seat closer so that Uncle Jared would not notice what was going to happen.“You are drinking?” Uncle Jared was surprised to see me drinking, he knows that I do not drink in the morning, and everyone else who knows me knows this as well. But then, I could not help given the situation, his daughter had just put me in a bad mood. The only way that I could end this anger that I was feeling was to take a sip of alcohol. It will probably give me the strength to do whatever I want to do. This was the only way for me to get back at her for what she had done. I know Kate, she was beautiful, and she was equally arrogant and proud, so in my heart, I felt that her beauty had entered her head and she was feeling as if no one else was better than her, and every man was supposed to fall at her feet and kiss up to her ass.“I just received awkward news and now my mood has turned sour, and so this was the only way that I could keep calm for the moment and th
Luke's POVI did not bother looking to see what Amelia was doing if she was still looking at us or not, or if Uncle Jared had come out, and seen us. I was more focused on Kate, she was in pain. I had caused her a great deal of pain by doing what I did and I regret all of my actions.I hate the fact that I let my anger get the best of me, it was always like this. I always let my anger consume me, it happened in the past and I ended up hitting my girlfriend when I was in high school. I got a weak suspension and even my father took away my mobile phone and made me apologize in front of her entire family.It was embarrassing, but I deserved it. In the end, she broke up with me and never wanted to have anything to do with me or my family. I was the cause of that relationship that ended, and our family's friendship went down the drain as well because I did something that I shouldn't have done. It was out of anger that I did all that back then, my father taught me to control my temper after
Maeve's POVGuilt filled my heart as I sat by the windowsill. I could not believe that a girl was going to be executed because of me. I know I shouldn't be feeling this way with what Grace had done. She had it coming she was a b**** and had no respect at all for anyone. It wasn't because of what she did to me that the Alpha punished her but what she had said about him. I could tell that Alpha Laurent himself does not give a shit about me at all, and will not have punished Grace heavily if it had been only me she had disrespected. I wasn't even sure he would have done anything if it was Angel.I ran a hand through my hair. I shouldn't be guilty. She deserves it all, I know that if she was in my shoes she would have done the same thing that I did or even worse. She might be seeking revenge against me so worrying about her was meaningless. The deed had already been done, and I would not change anything by telling the truth. The Alpha won't listen to me at all even if I go to him. These p
Laurent's POV“Is she getting ready? Did you see the gown she is wearing?” I was going through some documents but that did not stop me from lifting up my eyes and looking at her for a moment before returning back to what I was doing. I had to make sure everything was in order, left for me I wouldn't even entertain anyone in my house, but because Silas had advised me that it was right I didn't turn down the invitation since this was an order from the council of elders around the region.If it was just the council of elders in my pack, I would have bluntly refused but since it has to do with other packs, I don't want it to look as if I was planning a revolt against them. I could take any or all of them, but I would make enemies for myself, and I would not even know who was plotting to kill me, and who wasn't. It was best to keep your enemies closer to the point that they would have to eat and dine with you at the same table and that was what I was going to do tonight with Jared.“I'm af
Kate's POV “Welcome, the Alpha was expecting your arrival” Lucia shot a smile at us as we walked into the house. Lucia has always been a wonderful woman. I did not even know that she would keep on working for the Alpha this long. I thought that by now she would have resigned and moved to her hometown, she never got married after her meets died. She stayed single, everyone in the pack knows her she was one of the most sincere werewolves to have dealt with. My father and Luke looked around the house, this wasn't the first time my father was coming here, yet every time he came to the Alpha's house, he would be looking around, looking for what to say and what we would use against him. As for Luke I wasn't really sure what he was in my father's life, it was already clear that he was in love with me and I fancied his company, equally loved his touch and his kisses. He made me desire him every single day of my life, but he was still a weird man. I still wonder if he was among my father's
Maeve's POVI don't know how long I have been here. All I know is that I was feeling body aches from the tortures that Avery and Jared had inflicted on my body. I can never believe that she was still going back to her old ways. I thought she had changed for good, never would I have believed her that she was still the same person.She deceived me. Every single night I will sit in the cell crying and hoping for the day that Laurent will come and rescue me so that I will go home. I was almost falling sick, at first I did not know what she wanted. Now I realized that she wanted to kill me just like Jared had killed Zara Maria. He confessed everything to me, he was building an army so that he could take over the Alpha's throne. “Hello, dear sister”“Don't you dare call me your sister, you are not my sister we are nothing to each other, so you can never be my sister because they my step sisters has a good heart, you have no heart at all”“Shut up! You two bring her out and chain her to the
Maeve's POVWhen the bell rang that morning, everyone in the house was already downstairs and in the kitchen Lucia stood by the door crying. It was six in the morning when the maid servant's body was found in the kitchen. I could not bring myself to speak. I couldn't fathom it, I had seen her yesterday and she even served me dinner. We talked briefly since I wasn't really close to her. I was close to Grace, Riley and Lucia. Grace and I might have settled our differences in the past after she came out from the dungeon.What surprised me was how the maid servant had died, the doctor had ruled her death as homicide. Someone had poisoned her drink. I was not hungry last morning. Since I found out I had been pregnant I had lost my appetite and most times I don't even care for anything to eat for breakfast. Other times I just want to drink water. The other day I had asked Lucia to get candy from the store across the street. That was my breakfast, I had weird cravings. Something like this
Kate’s POVWhen the doorbell rang, I looked around but Amelia wasn't coming out, standing up from the couch I walked towards the door. I have been awake for a long while. After what Jared had tried to do to me but then I haven't really been outside, it has been Luke who has been getting almost everything for me. I moved in with him and Amelia moved into the other apartment she was ready to go back to school finish up and find a good man. I was happy for her I supported her dreams I'm glad that she was not going back to my father, everything I want to tell the Alpha,, I have told Silas since he ended up being my father and I trusted him that it was going to reach the Alpha's ear and they will have to get rid of Jared once and for all.The only person I pity in all of this is Luke. I was angry that he was Jared's Son at first, but it wasn't his fault, besides he never judged me when I was Jared’s daughter. He took me like his mate and always showered me with love and kisses all the t
Avery's POVLeaning against the door, I listened In. Jared was right there was not much time we needed to find a way to end everything. My sister would have to die tomorrow during breakfast otherwise she is going to give birth to that bastard in her womb. I can't believe that she was already pregnant. Maeve and the Alpha share a close bond. How wouldn't they When Silas was always around being nosy and giving advice when needed. I see the way Laurent looks at her it is different, his eyes filled with love. It made me sick to the stomach. I wanted him to look at me like that. When we manage to get her out of the way I think Silas should die. I don't think Jared should let him live just as he planned otherwise that man is going to be a big problem for us, whatever he is planning must be something huge as well, moving away from the door I took out my phone and gave Jared a call as I walked into my room shutting the door.“It better be good that you are calling me distracting me from my p
Laurent's POVI was in the study trying to sort us some things when a knock came on the door. I looked up, a smile lingering on my lips. I knew that would be Maeve. She must have come to serve me my favorite coffee. I always take it before going to bed. Sometimes it helped me focus on what I was doing. There was a lot to do in the pack. A lot Silas and I were trying to figure it out together.However, the smile on my face quickly faded away as my eyes fell on Avery walking into the room. I wasn't exactly sure what she was doing here. She has been here for more than two weeks now and although I was still uncomfortable with her presence. I don't expect her to be the one serving coffee. If there was something wrong with Maeve then Lucia, Grace, or any of the other maid's servants should do it and not her.“What are you doing here?” I looked up at her and she smiled. Maeve was not feeling fine and I decided to come over here. She needed me to come to serve your favorite coffee I was abo
Riley's POVAnger seeped through me as I looked at the man who had dragged me out of the car like some slut. I don't know what his problem was. I haven't seen him all day for a while now ever since the last time I went to meet up with Jared. I have tried to get in contact with him so that we can talk but then that has not been possible. He seemed to have gone MIA and I had no way to reach him even if I knew where he could be I would never want to go to Richard. I don't want to hear stories and neither would I want anything to happen between us. I never want to end up feeling as if I had betrayed Zander. I was being way too careful.“What the hell do you think you are doing?” I was mad at him not because of what Jared had said to me that night but because of the way he was dragging me out of the car. Sometimes, I wonder if he was losing a knot or perhaps he would want to have his head checked during the next pack doctor's visit.“ We need to talk”“I'm kind of in a hurry now, so why do
Riley's POVThe foolish b**** thought that I was in this game together with her but she was mistaken. The only reason why I was trying to make her feel as if we could be a team and then end her sister was so she could end up blowing up her cover. I will have to tell Maeve that her sister has not repented and in fact, only came here because she had an ulterior motive probably to take away what was hers.“I don't know what you're talking about. I love my sister so much and I would not want to do anything” Avery's tears become teary This was exactly what I was talking about, girls like her would never change at all. They would always want to play the victim and even try to deceive other people. However, I have lived long enough never to be deceived by girls like her. I don't know how manipulative they can be and I know they want something.I wonder how Maeve didn't realize that her sister was a devil in disguise and if she was here right now it only meant that she was going to ruin her.
Riley's POVWhen I had the doorbell. I looked up the stairs smiling, Angel was going to come down in a bit which meant she was going to see her Prince Charming Zander, and we'd get to have a little picnic together. She had been waiting for it for so long. Angel and I have drawn closer, I feel like I have known her all through my life but that was not possible. We only just met the other week when I got back home. They both have been spending time together at first I thought Maeve would not like it but she has no problem with it and even loves that Angel was trying to mingle with a lot of people in the pack. She was used to being the maidservant and was always in the kitchen helping Lucia and even making Grace smile or she was with me or in the garden trying to pluck some vegetables.Opening the door, I was surprised to see an unfamiliar woman standing there with a suitcase. For a moment I wondered if she had lost her way and was at the wrong house.This was Alpha Laurent's house and h
Luke's POVI was happy that Zander let me go and I loved this little chat that we had, it's made us draw closer to each other, when I was heading out I saw Jason at the door. He was getting a copy of the daily paper. There was nothing fun that was going to be written in there, at least it wasn't going to reveal all of Jared's corrupt ways so there was no point in standing there and reading it. I need to get justice for Kate, ever since he hurt Kate, I have not come in contact with Jared.I have tried so much to stay away from him but he has been ringing up my phone, texting me but I was not in the mood to talk to him. All I did was erase his message without even going through it. He was a fool to think that he would hurt Kate and then expect me to come to him and play with him, that was never going to happen.I thought about this carefully before making a move. I know what this might be for me. I might end up in Jared's hand and I will never have to come out again, but then I was goin
