Adam's pov

I was beyond frustrated at the result my men were pulling out with, Jason and Jayden had been gone for three whole weeks and all the clues they've brought me have all led to dead ends in the investigation. Nothing tangible had been found.

I had an army of men at my beck and call yet they couldn't track down the bunch of amateurs who had kidnapped my sons. There were no signs of their whereabouts and that was what worried me, there were no leads, no ransom demands. It was like they vanished off the face of the earth.

My mind raced with thoughts of the two boys I wasn't given the chance to meet, what would they be like?, what did they like?, what were their dislikes? but alas I had no answer to those questions because I hadn't met them. A pit formed in my gut whenever I thought about the eight years of their lives I had missed, I wasn't there when they were given birth to, I didn't watch them take their first steps, I hadn't celebrated any of their birthdays or favorite h

    Adam's pov…I took steady strides towards her, watching as her eyes bulged as I closed the distance between us coming to stand directly in front of her, her bare toes rubbing against the leather of my shoes. She was nervous, I could tell and I was happy I wasn't the only one affected by how close we stood. “How are you feeling after everything?” I asked, referring to her attack. Whenever my mind drifted to it, I still felt angry that all her captors escaped and they hadn't gotten what they rightfully deserve. I knew it was a sour topic but it was something we hadn't really talked about since she was rescued and I wanted to know how she felt sincerely. Her eyes left mine and bounced across the room, a tremble passed through her as she rubbed her hands down the length of her arms.That right there was my answer. She was still struggling with what happened but I knew that she wasn't going to admit it, as if on cue her throat bobbed as she ran her tongue the seam of lips before whisperi

    Adam's pov …Valerie's face froze, her expression morphing from shock to disbelief. Her lips were still parted from the single word she had uttered since I told her Analisse wasn't my mate. I watched as her mind struggled to accept what I had just said, her shock only seemed to deepen as she started pacing the length of the room. I wanted to pull her to me but decided against it when she came to an abrupt stop and brought her attention back to me.“You don't have to lie, to cover up what you did. We are both adults and we can take full responsibility for our shortcomings.” she spat out, her voice having a biting tone. I didn't expect her to believe me, I doubt I would have believed it myself if it hadn't happened to me but it was the truth and if she would let me explain I would come clean about everything that happened. “I know what I'm saying to you might sound hard to believe but I just want to come clean” I said, trying to calm her down.“I'm not stupid, Adam. Do you mean to tell

    Adam's POV…I never knew that doing something so wrong could feel so exhilarating. It felt like I acted on impulse, I couldn't let her leave, I hadn't planned to kiss her but it just happened and I'll be damned if I said that I wasn't having a good time doing it. My lips moved against hers, urgent and commanding. For a moment I thought she wasn't going to respond, but then she parted her lips for me and it felt like I was kissing her for the first time again. She was like a force I couldn't ignore, it knocked me and I didn't want to get back up.She was sweet and addicting and I couldn't get enough of her. My arms roamed the length of her body, stopping at her ass to grip her cheeks. A low moan and then a sob slipped from her lips as I grip her hips, rubbing her firmly against my erection. A shudder passed through her at the movement. I tugged on the back of her head so I could look at her face, her eyes were glazed and her lips were swollen from kissing me. Looking at her I wished I

    Adam's POV…“No not there, put it beside the fountain. No, move it a little bit to the left. Yes, Perfect.” was what echoed in my head as I flipped onto my back trying to get back the comfortable position I had earlier lost.“Be careful with that” the same voice echoed in my head finally ridding me of sleep as I sat upright rubbing my eyes. What was all the noise about, it felt like the entire house was being shaken to its foundation.“What is wrong with you guys, can't you do anything right. Must I do everything myself.” A voice shrieked out in annoyance, it was Analisse what was she doing in the garden by this time in the morning and why was she shouting. I looked towards the window, trying to gauge what time it was by the amount of light streaming in, it was barely bright outside so what was the cause of all the ruckus. I tossed the covers of my body, my movements seeming somewhat mechanical, the grogginess of sleep still there as I made my way and stood over the window trying to

    Valerie's POV..The last few days had been beyond eventful. I thought about my life, and how it had done a full 360. From being almost killed to almost having sex again with the man whom I swore I hated. It all seemed too ironic. My thoughts drifted to Adam, and our make out session. A flutter in my chest surprised me. I'd tried to brush it off as a mistake, but the truth was, I'd enjoyed it. The spark of attraction, the thrill of the unknown, the feeling of almost getting caught made me feel alive.Adam's strong jawline, his piercing eyes, and that captivating smile all swirled together in my mind. I felt a shiver run down my spine as I recalled the way his lips had felt when they touched mine, the way his palm though rough had felt so soft against my skin. I thought I would feel guilty for being with a married man, I waited but the feelings never came.After my attack, a few days later I was able to get a hold on Rendall, he felt sorry that I got injured looking for him but I told h

    Valerie's pov…I don't know if he's psychic or he just enjoyed showing up at places he wasn't wanted or needed but Adam had a niche for appearing at the most awkward and uncomfortable moments. Rendall was about to crack at the exact moment he showed up. I knew it, I could feel it, the more I persisted the more I saw his resistance slowly wear off through his eyes and I felt I finally had the upper hand in this chaos I called my life, but I should have known it was too good to be true. The moment Rendall heard Adam's voice, the reverse was the case. His eyes became the size of saucers as he turned back taking in Adam's full size before running off back into the woods. I tried yelling out for him to stop but he didn't turn back not even once, only the moon goddesses knew when next I would have an opportunity to meet him. This was my one chance and now it's gone because someone decided to butt in where they were not needed. I hoped more for Adam's sake that he had a good reason for show

    Valerie's POV…I wanted to bake the cake the previous day but procrastination had always been a hard habit to break for me. The sound of chattering voices, pots clanging and instructions being thrown around was what welcomed me as I walked towards the kitchen. I watched from the doorway as some maids helped mix pastries, some prepared brines, while some were chopping up vegetables and fruits for different dishes and cocktails. A thought urged me to turn back and go upstairs to avoid disturbing them and also I didn't want to be in the company of people but then again my thoughts were on a roll and I wasn't in the mood for any overthinking. As I stepped into the kitchen, all the voices reduced to a bare whisper as some of the kitchen aids turned to face me. God!! Why did they have to make it seem so weird?“What's going on?” the head cook asked in surprise, of how silent the place had suddenly become. His eyes travelled around the room before coming to rest on me. It felt beyond awkw

    Adam's POV….I slowly opened my eyes, grogginess giving way to confusion as I took in my surroundings. I was in my bedroom, but something felt off. The room was too bright, the sunlight streaming in through the windows and illuminating the space in a way that seemed almost deliberate and I knew I had drawn my curtains closed last night before I slept.I sat up with a start, my heart racing as I scanned the room. That's when I saw her - Analisse, standing by the window, a sly smile spreading across her face. But she wasn't alone. Several maids stood behind her, their faces expressionless. What the hell was going on.My mind reeled as I tried to process what was happening. What were they doing in my bedroom? And why was Analisse looking at me like that? And why were there so many maids in my room?"Good morning, Babe. Happy birthday," Analisse said, her voice dripping with sweetness as she stepped closer and kissed my cheeks."I hope you're feeling refreshed. We have a big day ahead of

    Valerie's POVI was done today and was ready to call it a night. In conclusion, the next time my mind wasn't feeling so sure about a particular place or location, I wouldn't touch that place with a ten foot pole. I couldn't stand by and watch the guards feed her the poison even though she planned on doing it to me. My mind wouldn't have been at rest if I had let her be poisoned by Adam's guards. After Adam dismissed everyone and cancelled the rest of the dinner, I just stood unmoving. It was still a lot to take in but I was going to get over it. I knew it, though I felt like my life was ending and I was constantly getting betrayed by the people around me, I could tell it was going to get better soon. After everyone had left Adam reached for my hand and pulled me towards the house. I could hear him talking to me and trying to reassure me but it felt like an out of body experience.I could feel him pulling my body but it felt like the contents of my body were temporarily gone. My feet

    Valerie's POVI've always disliked abuse whether it was physical, emotional or mental. Whatever form it came in was an instant no for me. So when Adam kicked the maid, I screamed out so loud I was sure I scared away the birds that were on the neighboring trees. I had expected him to shout at her, to maybe humiliate her but the last thing he would do was to kick her. The moment his foot landed against her stomach, I pushed my way to the front of the crowd and made my way towards him.“Adam stop kicking her, she's a person. You don't do such things to people regardless of how you feel about them.” I said pulling him off her but being stronger than I was he wouldn't budge.“She wanted to kill you,” he said, kicking her once more. I knew he was trying to defend me but he was going about it the wrong way. I meant nothing to the pack, he shouldn't be doing this for me.“Exactly she wanted but she didn't, I'm still here and I'm okay you don't have to hurt her.” I said, still urging him and t

    Valerie's POV“I almost got killed again.” It was a hard pill to swallow but it was the truth and I had no choice but to accept it.At this point I didn't know if it was just bad luck or I had a death warrant on me that others could see but I couldn't because I was beyond tired of getting ridiculed, of being attacked, of all the near death experiences I was having and tired of basically everything. I was just tired, we had all watched in awe as she cried and begged over and over again to be forgiven. She did it like she had no idea what she was doing when she had put the poison in the food but I just couldn't be moved to say anything. I was still in a state of shock from everything that had happened this evening. Her cries and wails filled the room but no one dared to move, Adam features were filled with disgust and contempt as he watched her putting on a show. I couldn't blame him, she had gone from defiant to sorry in the blink of an eye. Her cries seemed forced and fake.The murm

    Valerie's POVThe heated back and forth between Adam and the maid had been going on for quite a while and I was sure as hell that aside from myself every other person seated on this table was getting irritated by it. Adam had been insisting she take a bite of the steak but she kept on refusing everytime he asked. The smile that spread across Adam's features everytime she told him the word ‘No’ was calm but had a menacing look to it. The smile not getting to his eyes was a telltale sign of how fake it was.“I know that the helpers are not allowed to eat the food of Royals but as your Alpha, I'm ordering you to eat from it. Plus it's not like you're finishing the entire plate, you're only taking a bite from it.” He said still adamant that she eat from the plate.Adam's gaze snapped to the maid, his eyes glinting with a cold intensity. "Eat a piece of the mutton," he commanded, his voice low and menacing when he noticed she wasn't moving when he asked.The maid's eyes widened in terror,

    Valerie's POVSo much for not wanting to be the center of attention, the whole room was still in shock from how loud the timbre of Adam's voice was, the once lively table which was filled with laughs and chatters of guests had now become as silent as a graveyard. The table was now filled with surprised gazes, wide eyes and hushed tones but no one dared to move or question his order. Most of the eyes on the table had thrown their attention my way trying to deduce his reason for raising an alarm and scaring everyone. The weight of their gazes felt uncomfortable against my skin, I could feel myself turning a bright shade of crimson with how embarrassed I was.The entire room had instantly turned quiet, if you dropped a pin on the floor you would probably hear it echo inside the house. My mind was currently in turmoil, why had Adam reacted like that, he knew I didn't want people's eyes on me and he literally threw me to the wolves.“Why don't you want me to eat it, is something wrong?”

    Valerie's POV“I thought I was done with these stupid panic attacks.” I thought to myself as I fought to keep my tears at bay.I had to take a minute to calm down, and reduce the pace of my breathing. I was scared out of my mind, the only thing that kept echoing in my head was how I got beat-up and kidnapped a while ago. I tried to convince myself that it was a thing of the past and I was safe but my body wasn't accepting the fact. I thought I was over the attack but I guess it took being put in a similar position to show that my healing journey was far from over.I could still feel my pulse pounding in my temples, and my hands were shaking slightly. I closed my eyes, focusing on the sound of my own breathing. I tried to slow down my heart rate, to calm my frazzled nerves. But my mind kept replaying the sensation of the hand over my mouth, the feeling of being trapped and helpless. I ran my hands along the length of my arms trying to warm myself up but my efforts were futile as I k

    Valerie's POVI could finally confirm it now, Analisse didn't have a heart, matter of fact where her heart was supposed to be, there was a fist sized boulder there and instead of blood, it pumped poison through her veins. I had stood at the same spot for about five minutes watching her facial expressions to see if her stoic mask would crack and she would feel some empathy for her brother before gathering him in her arms and taking him inside but it was the exact opposite and in some crooked way I knew that was going to be her reaction. All she did was stare at him with contempt and irritation in her eyes.I didn't know how possible it was that every time I saw Rendall he managed to look worse than the previous time I had seen him. This evening had taken the crown, his clothes were torn, the sole of his shoe had finally burst open, he looked like he was covered with several layers of sweat and grime. His hair was matted together by lumps of dirt. He had several cuts and bruises l

    Valerie’s POV“This was a bad idea” I thought, as I placed my palm on my temple, groaning to myself. I should have done something else for Adam, instead of coming to this party. I could have pretended I was sick, he would have believed me regardless of what I came up with after all we had spent most of our day in a body of water, it wouldn't sound weird if I came down with a fever or a cold. I felt so out of place and uncomfortable, the cocktail event for the dinner had started a few minutes before I stepped onto the terrace and so far I've hated each and every moment of it. The invited wolves around me were moving from place to place with a drink in hand, talking, laughing and socializing with each other but here I was tucked in a dark corner of the room regretting my decision of even coming outside. It wasn't like the party was bad, actually it was the exact opposite, the drinks were good, the appetizers were delicious but it was the company of people in the party that made me f

    Valerie's POVI walked gingerly across the garden path towards the staff door, making sure to survey the vicinity with each and every step I took to avoid bumping into anyone who would ask pressing questions. I couldn't afford for anyone to find me outside and inquire on where I had been. The staff door led straight to the kitchen. I didn't want to meet so many people but I knew that was inevitable whether or not I used that door or the main garden entrance,aside from that it was the entrance that came with the least prying eyes and suspicious glances. The memory of what happened the last time I was in the kitchen played itself in my head and it was the warning I needed, to come up with a good plan before entering the kitchen, as a precaution this time around in case I bumped into anyone and especially to prevent a repeat of what happened the last time with Analisse or one of her cohorts. I pushed the door as gently as I could to prevent it from squeaking before quietly stepping insi
