Luke's POVI felt that a fight was soon going to break out but I was here for the fun and the talk as well. It was pretty funny watching my Uncle taunt the Alpha. I wonder what he has against him, it wasn't really any of my business but then I don't like being in the dark.However what bothered me the most was Kate, and not watching my Uncle or listening to what he was saying or doing. Throughout, the night she filled my thoughts and made me wonder if I had done something wrong against her, which was why she was giving me the cold treatment and said what she said earlier, sometimes this woman made me more confused than more convinced that she was the right one for me. If I could see the moon goddess right now I could question her about Kate's true nature.I have never wished for a complicated mate. But she gave me a complicated mate for me to deal with, now it was even impossible for me to strike up a conversation with her without having to worry about what I was going to do not to p
Luke's POV“I'm sorry I thought it was Kate, you know the lady who was sitting right next to me at the dining table” I was trying to explain. I had been so carried away with watching what was happening and looking at Kate that I did not notice that this woman had already excused herself from the table and walked into the kitchen. She was equally bored by what was happening. I wonder if my uncle was trying to bring a lot of problems to the table.“It's alright, you don't have to apologize. I was just bored out there, and I decided to come in here. As for the woman you are looking for I saw her heading out the back. She went out through that door” At least there was someone nice and polite around here, who could point me in the right direction. The Alpha didn't look like th,e nice Man, he was so arrogant and full of himself, the same with his cousin, Richard, or whatever his name was.They think they are better than everybody especially that cousin of his, who could not keep his eyes to
Richard's POV As she walked away, I smirked, at least I won this round of battle, now he would only have to contend with standing with himself looking like a fool. He was a loser because he lost not just his honor but he lost the woman he had eyes on. I know Kate has always been in love with me. She was some crazy girl, There were a lot of men who were after her but whenever she saw me she would abandon all of them to be with me, so I knew that this man was no different from the rest of the men; Damon, Jeremy and Gabriel, the three of them put together cannot beat me when it comes to her heart. Too bad, my heart already belongs to Riley, and I don't see myself falling in love with another woman except for her.She was beautiful and sexy as well which is why so many men flock around trying to get a night or even a kiss from her. When I was little, there was a time when men would gather by her window just trying to get a peek at her beautiful face. She was like a goddess living in the
Kate's POVStanding in front of the mirror, I looked at the scar he had left on my arm and applied some ointment to it. Richard was a bastard. I did not really know all this while, my father has always hated him, I thought it was because he was also seeking the same thing that the old man was seeking and he was greedy because he wanted to have it all to himself.Now I know why Amelia never liked him and aside from that so many people who have talked about him have always disliked his attitude. How dare he grab me in such a manner and even belittle Luke in front of me.I wouldn't have reacted that way if he had not called him a woman and made fun of me. He demeaned me and lowered me to nothing as if I'm some object of pleasure which is something Luke has never done. I haven't known him so much but in the short while I have been with him, I found out that he has respect for women. Yes, he has his dark side and goes all crazy when he is to be, but aside from that he is different.When I
Kate's POV“What do you mean you slept with him? Did you like sleeping with him or you're just bluffing because it's really strange how you would do that and I would not know” Amelia had her doubts probably because I would never have done that without telling her, but then I did not want her to judge me. It just came out wrongly and have I ever intended to do what I did, all I know was that when I saw him and when he drew close to me all I wanted to be is in his arms. I can't really say how it happened but it felt really good.“It is just as I said, everything happened so fast but trust me. I never wanted it to happen. But I said some nasty things to him” I ran my hand through my head and stepped away from the window. What I said to Luke tonight must have broken his heart. I have never been so blunt and wicked with anyone. I have never really hurt anyone. I never gave myself to anyone all this while he was the first. I really wanted him to be the last as well.“Nasty thing? What thing
Kate's POVI walked Into the living room only to see Amelia opening the door exposing Luke to some blonde-haired woman. They were talking and laughing.“Good morning sir, you look quite handsome this morning?”''Thank you, Martha, is my uncle up? I would like to introduce someone to him” Luke was no longer looking lifeless he was looking happy, gosh, he looked so handsome in that Armani suit and I just wanted to pull him by the suit while kissing him so hard but I could not do that, not with this woman standing right next to him staring at him she was obviously lost and hooked by his looks.I would be lying if I didn't say that Luke was not handsome and charming as well, a lot of women must have been after him, this one here must be one of them or was this his lover this must be his girlfriend? Was all of this just a silly game to him?“My father is still fast asleep in his bed. He had a long night last night and it's not going to wake him up anytime soon. I'm going to have my breakfa
Luke’s POVThat was clearly a rejection or whatever she might think at the moment. Right now I was no longer in the mood to be going back and forth with her. I came here for a reason and that was to get to know more about my parents, especially about my father's death. Silas agreed to help me out he said he knows my father which I doubt since my father never said a word about him. My father never really talked about anyone before he died, the only one he always called his name was Uncle Jared probably because he was a family friend and my mother was fond of him. He was my Godfather as well and everyone around knew that my parents were friends with him. Although we did not live in the same town that did not stop Uncle Jared from sending letters and gifts to me almost every Christmas.However when I sneaked out to use the restroom last night in the Alpha's house. Silas had joined me in this bathroom, he seemed to be very interested in my relationship with Jared and asked a lot of quest
Luke's POVI don't know what was worse just sitting here and watching her or sitting here and listening to her trying to intimidate Helena. she was just a poor girl that I had brought from my pack. I don't want anyone to do anything to her. I know the reason why I do not want to choose anybody from this pack. I wasn't comfortable working with a stranger but Helena has been working with us for many years in our house. My mother trusted her and I did as well. She hasn't done anything to prove to me that she wasn't to be trusted. She wasn't even into men. She loved women and I won't blame her. She was abused by her stepfather and her brother. They took turns with her almost every night.It was my father who rescued her and then brought her home with us, he wanted to adopt her as my sister but she refused. She was too broken to be part of a family, instead, she wanted us to let her stay in the house for as long as she wanted and let her work for us. She said that working takes her mind aw
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
