Chapter 27 - Council's visit
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Bartholomews' pov:
In seconds the place was filled with Council's high ranked wolves and lots of guards. -"You are surrounded. Raise your hands and surrender. Don't do anything stupid" came a deep male voice from afar.We raised our hands and waited in place when tall and well-built men approached us. They had their faces covered and were armed with high-tech weapons. I have seen these weapons at a military exhibition three months ago. The Council must have procured them. I didn't expect this from them. Lately the Council is more than active and doesn't function as a consulting organization anymore. -"There has been a misunderstanding. We are innocent" Richard started to say aloud.-"Shut the hell up" ordered one of the guards and pushed him into the van. Then he pushed me in too. We got in and the door closed behind us. I signaled Richard to stop talking. We couRelated chapters
Guilty Secrets Chapter 28 - Never give up
Alexander's pov:I was in my office with Steve looking at the last details of our plan when the phone rang. It was John the Council's Military Counselor. After we spoke for a few minutes he hand up. Steve who all this time didn't lose eye contact with me gave me a questioning look. I took a deep breath and started explaining to him.-"John called and told me that Bartholomew is in a very difficult situation. He faces very serious charges" Ι told Steve.-" At last! We finally managed to catch him and his gang and put them behind bars" Steve commented satisfied.-"Don't rush to celebrate! Nothing is over yet! You know that Bartholomew won't sit tight!" I contradicted.-"What do you mean? He can't get away this time! The Council won't spare him"-"Ι am not talking about the Council"-"Then what? He is in p
Guilty Secrets Chapter 29 - Hunting day
Elektra's pov:It has been two weeks since the council handed down the verdict for my father: Thirty years in prison with no extenuating circumstances. As soon as I heard it, I was devastated. I still can't believe how blind the Court has been. Richard managed to put the blame on my father for all the illegalities and everyone believed him just like that.Father swore to me that he was innocent and I believe him. Why lie to me? He was always honest with me. The only thing he did wrong that day was that he trusted his best friend and accompanied him. A friend who betrayed him in the end and presented my father as the sole mastermind of all his illegal actions. I suspected Richard was hiding something since we visited his pack. I found it strange that his pack was so lavish when his companies were few and small. I wonder why father didn't see it
Guilty Secrets Chapter 30 - A love blossoms
Alexander's pov:Cassandra stood in front of me looking up at the stars. She was wearing a t-shirt and pants and had her hair done in a messy bun.-"What are you doing here so late at night?" I asked her while she turned around surprised.-"Did I scare you?" I asked again.-"No, no... I just didn't expect anyone to be up so late."-"Oh...I see....What you are doing here?"-"I couldn't sleep and decided to come here and watch the stars" she answered timidly.-"Do you want me to keep you company?"
Guilty Secrets Chapter 31 - Prison break
Elektra's pov:Eight months have passed since my father was imprisoned and yet nothing has happened. Our appeal was rejected by the Supreme Court and there was nothing more we could do to free my father from prison. I was so devastated by the news while my father didn't seem to be affected at all. He kept telling me that everything was going to be all right and not to worry about him. I just couldn't understand him. What's wrong with him? Didn't he realize that he was going to spend the rest of his life in prison? Didn't he worry about it? How could he be so cool and relaxed?At least the packaging stuff was better. My reforms were accepted by the majority of the pack. Although there were some objections to the new position the omega would have in our pack, they eventually caved. Everything returned
Guilty Secrets Chapter 32 - The note
Elektra's pov:The news of my father's escape spread like an atomic bomb through the werewolf community. Panic ensued along with worry and fear. Everyone knew or at least suspected what my father was going to do now that he was out of jail.Knowing father I was sure that he would take revenge on his prosecutors who unjustly imprisoned him. I can't say I agree with that, but it's not my place to judge. I don't know what I would do if I put myself in his shoes. I really hope he lets it all go and decides to spend the rest of his life in peace. When the prison break was announced, Council's guards and warriors arrived and camped here waiting for my father to come and capture him. Our pack was also filled with weapons, rules and many prohibitions. My pack members were already annoyed by the way the Council and the other packs had acted against us so far, so when all these people came here making our lives unbearable, many pack members complained about it. I tried to calm them down to no a
Guilty Secrets Chapter 33 - Awkward encounter
Alexander's pov:Due to recent events, the Council decided to meet with all the Alphas and give us instructions on the fugitives' subject. The meeting would be held in the Black Moon's pack territory. Orestes, in addition to being the Alpha of this pack, was one of my best friends and the Council's most trusted allies.The place was deliberately chosen as we had to be very careful. With Bartholomew out of prison, we were afraid of reprisals. Many Alphas were still loyal to him and his gang. Although all the known members of his gang were caught, we suspected that there were many more that secretly helped him in his illegal activities. Now that he was out they wouldn't hesitate to help him again in any way possible for a good price.It was Friday night wh
Guilty Secrets Chapter 34 - The bounty
Elektra's pov:After my meeting with Alexander and his mate I decided to lock myself in my room. I didn't want to eat or talk to anyone. My heart ached at the thought of Alexander kissing and hugging another woman. When I saw them together something broke inside me. I just couldn't take it anymore. If I stayed there a little longer I would attack that girl. I can't explain why I have this strange feeling that Alexander belongs to me when he clearly belongs to another woman. Something in me could not be on good terms with it.The night passed with me tossing and turning in my bed unable to find peace and quiet. Seeing Alexander with another woman managed to irritate me and make me feel nervous. A war reigned within me. On the one hand I was thinking what would happen if I said yes to Alexander. Now it would be me by his side and not this girl. On the other hand, I could not do such a thing. I knew my conscience wouldn't allow me even though I knew I was madly in love with him.The next
Guilty Secrets Chapter 35 - In absolute secrecy
Elektra's pov:After two days of endless discussions and negotiations the meeting between the Alphas was eventually over.I returned to my pack anxious to warn my father of the bounty. It was Saturday noon when we arrived at our pack completely exhausted. These meetings always are very noisy and stressful for me. Apart from the meetings I had to face Alexander's intimacies with his mate. Wherever I went I found them spending time together. Although most of the time they behaved decently but I just couldn't stand watching them together. It was obvious that in a short time they managed to build a strong relationship among them. Although I didn't like the idea at all, I had no other choice. I have to accept that there isn't any chance for me and Alexander. Furthermore even if his mate didn't exist we co

Guilty Secrets Chapter 67 – The dream
Roxanne’s pov:A month passed with Elektra in the same state as always. The doctors said the hopes faded as time went on. Alexander did not visit her even once disappointing me more than expected. I couldn't believe his cruelty towards his own mate. What got into him? Didn’t he love her anymore? Didn’t he feel anything about her? I just couldn’t believe it. What happened to him? How did he become like this? Such an indifferent person….Electra lay on her bed pale and weak in a coma. I talked to her and brought her flowers every day. She was like a child to me. I couldn't come to terms with the idea that I was going to lose her soon…… The doctors were adamant. According to them, there was little chance of Elektra waking up. She was doomed to sleep for eternity and eventually die.I started sobbing. I couldn’t hold my tears anymore. I was devastated. I didn’t hear David entering the room. When he talked to me, I jumped out of fear.-“Roxanne?” he asked worriedly approaching me. “Are you
Guilty Secrets Chapter 66 - The vision
Alexander’s pov:I stood on my spot for several minutes feeling completely numb. My head was spinning as I tried hard to regain my composure. I was in a dilemma, trying to take a decision. On the one hand, I had Monica lying unconscious in her bed fighting cancer alone, while on the other hand Elektra was in a coma. But she wasn't alone. Roxanne and David were with her.– “This is not enough reason to leave her. You must go to her. She needs you" said Ares inside my head.-“Monica also needs me and she is completely alone. How can you ask me to leave her alone in a hospital room to fight for her life? I can't leave her now. He helped me when I was desperate and alone"-"You can have someone take care of her. Your first priority is your partner and not your friend" Ares scolded me.-"Stop it Ares. I didn't ask for your advice"-“You just can’t sit here and do nothing while your mate desperately needs you”-“I can’t do anything for her…”-“Of course you can! You have to go there and let
Guilty Secrets Chapter 65 - Fight for your life
Roxanne’s pov:-"My Goddess. Is she dead?' I said and started sobbing uncontrollably while David went over to her checking for a pulse.-“She’s alive. But her pulse is very weak” David said some seconds later.I got closer to her unable to hold back my tears. I took her in my arms and held her tight while David called 911.-“What happened to you my beautiful daughter? What monster did this to you?” I said enraged.During our waiting for the ambulance I was holding her tightly in my arms while David checked the whole apartment looking for a clue about who have done this.The ambulance came and took her to the metropolitan hospital while we followed behind with a taxi.David called Jax, his Beta and asked him to send some wolves immediately here. He was in rage.Electra was immediately operated on. According to the doctors, she was severely beaten and suffered from internal bleeding.Hearing the news made my heart fall apart. I just couldn’t believe it. Elektra was a very strong woman.
Guilty Secrets Chapter 64 - Premonition
Elektra’s pov:When the elevator opened I saw to my great surprise Andros tightly hugging and passionately kissing a blonde woman. I gave her a quick upside down glance. She was tall with long blonde hair and a fit body. She was gorgeous!-“What the hell?” I commented in frustration.-“What are you doing here? Are you following me?” he asked angrily.-“What? Of course not! I lost my phone and came to search for it”-“Here?” he wondered incredulously.-“That’s not the point Andros. Who is this woman?”-“I am his mate” the blonde woman replied.-“Your what?”-“I thought that you mate was dead along with your four year old child”-“We don’t have a child” the woman intervened again.-“Is this your second chance mate?” I addressed to Andros. I knew that second chance mates were scarce but Andros was lucky enough to find her and didn’t have the opportunity to tell me about it.-“What? No! I am his first and only mate” the blonde protested.-"Well, everything you told me a few minutes ago wa
Guilty Secrets Chapter 63 - Unreasonable demands
Cito fit quod dei volant – What the gods want happens soon (Petronius) Alexander’s pov: -“What did you say?” I asked completely amazed. Hearing Elektra saying something like that surprised me deeply, especially now that I had lost every hope to win her back. -“You heard me” she said with a deeper voice than she used to. -“It isn’t you that talking but your wolf” I commented disappointedly. Of course it was her wolf who felt jealousy when she saw me with another female. Even though she rejected me, her wolf hasn’t given up our bond. No wolf can escape the bond. It is more complicated for them. -“No, it’s only me” she strongly denied. -“Please Elektra. Don't treat me like an idiot. I know you don’t have any feelings for me. You've been kind enough to show it to me several times in the past." I said in annoyance. -“Alexander I am sorry. I know I treat you badly but now I’m here to make amends…” -“To make amends? What are you talking about?” I asked in surprise…. I really didn’t ex
Guilty Secrets Chapter 62 - Jealousy?
Alexander’s pov: Over the next few days, Monica and I attended every party and big social event that happened in town. While I know Monica's purpose was good, I found it extremely boring to attend to all these events. Never the less seeing Monica having a great time kept me going on. The only thing we definitely accomplished was to become the main topic of various newspapers and tabloids. The week was coming to its ending and Elektra was nowhere to be found. I was starting to feel really desperate. Monica's plan obviously didn't work out the way we expected. -“Relax…..At least we had a great time!” Monica exclaimed in enthusiasm. -“Yes, but going to various events doesn’t bring Elektra back” -“Do you love her that much?” -“I….think so……” -“You know what? I really don’t get it. We passed the whole week together while she did absolutely nothing….” -“What do you mean?” -“She didn’t show any sign that she really cares about you……” -“You know what? You’re right! If Elektra doesn’
Guilty Secrets Chapter 61 - A night full of surprises
Monica and I met each other at college. We were both very young and ambitious. Monica is human and even though she knows about our kind, she doesn’t have a problem. She’s always been supportive and understanding. Seeing her again already brightened my spirits. We went to a fancy restaurant to have dinner. We were having a really good time talking about our current lives and trying to catch up with everything. We mostly talked about our jobs and our common past. We were having a great time talking about all the embarrassing moments we shared together when suddenly I felt my wolf stirred happily into my head. It was then that I saw Elektra with this Andros getting inside. She was wearing a very sexy pink cocktail dress and had her hair up. Seeing her smiling standing at this man’s side made my blood boil. They sat four tables across ours. They seemed to having a very good time. Before allowing myself to get angry and ruin our night I decided to concentrate on Monica who all this time wa
Guilty Secrets Chapter 60- You can't avoid your past
Elektra’s pov:Seeing Alexander again was a big shock to me. For over a year I lived my life erasing every memory of him and somehow he comes back with the intention to claim what is rightfully his. After a year and a half of ignoring me, he came back to claim me as if I were a cursed object to him. Who does he think he is?Last night I accepted Andros’ invitation for dinner and decided to stay at his house for the night. I was about to tell him the truth about Alexander's appearance, but the night was so enjoyable that I didn't want to spoil it. So we went home and slept. Andros respected my wish to rest and didn’t insist on love making. He even made me breakfast in the morning! He is so attentive and caring and all this time he never misses an opportunity to show me how much he loves me. He is so perfect that I can already imagine my life beside him.My day was very tiring and demanding. My boss was so eager to close the deal with Alexander's company that when I arrived he took me to
Guilty Secrets Chapter 59 - What luck can bring
Elektra’s pov:Our dinner tonight was a total disaster. Roxanne and Andros didn't get along well enough to drive me crazy. I don't know what Roxanne got her. He treated Andros with great hostility forcing him to react accordingly.-"Why did you treat Andros so badly?" I asked Roxanne as I opened the door to my apartment wide, walked in and threw away the keys.-"What? I didn't!" she refused trying to look innocent.-“Don’t treat me like a fool. You don’t like Andros and you managed to show it at every occasion! Why did you do that?”-“I…I didn’t!” she continued refusing my accusations.-“Please, stop denying it! Just tell me the truth for goodness sake!”-“Ok then! If you want to hear it! What happened to your mate? Did you forget him so easily?”-“Alexander belongs to the past! Don’t you see?” I contradicted.-“Alexander is your mate!” she exclaimed in annoyance.-“Alexander is nothing to me! Don’t you see that I moved on and want to leave everything behind?”-"My child, you will nev
