“Marry me, Greg,” Elly said abruptly from the other end of the dining table where they had just finished having dinner.Greg lifted his head off the plate in front of him, his brows raised in surprise. “What?” he muttered, peering into her eyes that peered back at him. “You heard me Greg, marry me,” Elly said the words again with much confidence this time, staring back into his eyes. She had practiced saying these words to herself for some months now and had mustered the courage to say it.“One year has passed now, Greg, Mario has started mumbling his first words and I cannot let him go… I mean, I cannot let the both of you go, I want us to be a family, you, me, and Mario, I love you both, Greg, please marry me,” Elly said, reaching out for Greg’s hand from the other side of the table.“I know you would never ask me, so I took the initiative to ask,” Elly added, holding Greg’s hand.Greg shook his head a little, not knowing what to say to her since her proposal came as a surprise to
“Hold on a minute,” Judit, one of the house keepers in Bret’s house, said hastily and rushed to get the front door leaving what she was attending to in the kitchen, wondering who it was that was ringing the doorbell rather ferociously and why no other housekeeper was available to answer the door.“Is your boss in?” a tall slim man asked rather rudely immediately the door swung open, peering rather hard, down at Judit for not answering the door quickly.“Excuse me, do I know you?” Judit asked, trying not to be rude to the stranger at the door. She has not recalled seeing this face before and wondered why he spoke to her in the manner that he did.“No you don’t, now answer the question, is your boss in?” the man asked authoritatively again in a deep tone, his brows furrowed at Judit.Judit clapped her hands together in front of her, trying to get a hold of herself and not knowing how he got past the security men at the gate with such an attitude. She had dealt with so many guests in her
“A year has passed Dennis, our son is nineteen now. It is time we make our son train as a werewolf to see if that could help him,” Cara added, making up her mind, still peering at Dennis who also felt that Cara was right.“Where is Bret at the moment?” Dennis asked, turning his dark gaze away from Cara.“He should be in his room,” Cara replied, wishing she had suggested this sooner.Dennis turned in the direction of Bret’s room at once while Cara followed behind.They have sought solutions by themselves but had found none yet but this attack on their pack had led Cara to suggest that they tell Bret about who he is and felt relieved that Dennis accepted it.Dennis pushed Bret’s room door open immediately he got to it without knocking like he normally would have done causing Bret who was in bed with Annabel to sit up on the bed immediately too.“Dad,” Bret snapped immediately he saw that it was his parents who just walked into the room.“Mum,” he added immediately, turning his unaccepta
“They have returned,” Monalisa said to Clara who was sitting next to her in the slaves camp as soon as she heard the sound of the vampires who had gone out before, her brows furrowed, hating that they sounded happy.She was feeling hopeful when Hamilton told her that he was going hunting late last night knowing that they were going to hunt some werewolves. Werewolves as she had heard were no easy target so she hoped that they would not return but hearing how happy they sounded showed that they succeeded.“Your wish didn’t come true Monalisa,” Gabby, who was working next to them said in a whisper, her face saddened. She had hoped that Monalisa’s wish would come true so that they could try and escape from viper city just as Monalisa had planned.“You do not have to be heartbroken about this Monalisa, I believe the opportunity would come,” Clara said, seeing how bitter Monalisa looked.“When will that day be?” Monalisa snapped but in a low tone in order not to be heard by some other vamp
Felicia found Chico with some of his men and gestured for him to make them leave. Chico groaned a little, knowing why she had come to him, he nodded slightly, gesturing for his men to leave. “What is it?” he asked after his men left, crossing his arms across his chest.“You know what I want Chico, I have been asking for months,” Felicia said sharply, irritated by his question but pressed her lips tightly together after Chico shot her a disapproving look, indicating that he didn’t like her tone.“I am sorry, Chico, it’s just that I cannot wait to be like you… I mean, a vampire, have you spoken to Hamilton about it?” she asked, forcing herself to sound polite.Chico peered at her for a while wondering why she kept insisting on being one of them, especially since she had witnessed how Hamilton allowed them to have little blood. He had been working on getting stronger secretly even though it was difficult and wished that Hamilton had turned Felicia into one of them instead of Monalisa as
Chico barged into the room he shared with some of the vampires, groaning deeply, causing Liam and Thomas who were present in the room to turn their gaze on him.“Did something happen between you and Hamilton?” Thomas asked almost immediately, sitting up on the bed where he was lying on. He is guessing that to be the case since he has been very upset with Hamilton lately.Liam just tightened his jaw muscles as he peered at Chico from the chair where he was seated on, next to Thomas, having the same opinion as Thomas.“It is not Hamilton, it’s that b*tch, Felicia,” Chico replied fiercely, recalling how she told him that she knew his secret. “The nerve of that b*tch to blackmail me,” Chico added, tightening his jaw muscles and wishing he was in control of viper city already. “What did she say?” Thomas asked in a deep tone, wondering what Felicia must have said to him to make him this upset.“She knows of my plan to take over from Hamilton,” Chico said, peering into Thomas' eyes. Thomas
Alpha Dennis barged into his bedroom feeling very furious and devastated after having yet another failed session with Bret, causing his wife, Luna Cara was seated on a chair in front of her dressing mirror to stand up on her feet immediately startled by her husband.“What is it?” Cara asked taking a few steps closer to Dennis even though she could already sense his reason for being so furious. “I am done with that son of ours,” Dennis blotted out, groaning deeply afterwards. “I wonder how I ended up with such a son, all of my efforts to take control of Batton city over the years will go to waste because I do not have a capable successor,” Dennis snapped, pacing furiously around his room with Cara.Cara’s brows furrowed, feeling terrible too for Brets inability to awaken his wolf’s strength. They have only succeeded in making his wolf come alive but have failed to make his alpha strength come alive. She has tried to train him herself too but failed.“Calm down Dennis, I think we shoul
Advik suddenly paused after some incantations, glancing from Bret to his parents, his pupils enlarging. “What is the matter?” Dennis asked, standing up immediately, followed by Cara as they sensed something wrong.“What’s wrong with me?” Bret asked, standing up too, his curious gaze going from his parents to Advik.“I am afraid, Alpha Dennis but your son Bret cannot have his Alpha wolf strength, he can gain some strength by practicing but not the strength of an Alpha wolf,” Advik told them rather slowly.“What?” Cara muttered confused by what Advik said. She could also see the confusion on Dennis and Bret’s face.“Why can he not have the strength of an Alpha wolf?” Dennis brawled at Advik as if he were the reason for Bret’s situation.“That is because your son’s Alpha wolf strength has been passed on to his son,” Advik said.“What?” Bret muttered, shocked by what he had just heard.“What?” Dennis and Cara echoed almost immediately too, surprised by what Advik said.“Your son’s wolf s
