Kate’s POV
My wolf was practically chuffing through the entire ordeal of me positioning myself into the shortlist to appear sick. Lois wasn’t having it. Knowing how dangerous Dame can be, I don’t want to make it easy for him to get a hold of me. At least until I have been able to deal with him halfway.
“I still don’t get it, Kate. Will his presence ease the attack from yesterday? Also don’t forget that he might be your assailant. What if he comes in here to finish you off totally?”
“I have you here with me, don’t I?” I retorted, rubbing the ach
Mark’s POV“Do you always eat like that?” I snarled at Miguel. He raised his head slightly from the plate of pasta and made a mocking face. “Yes. If it bothers you, you should leave the table.” “This is my house.” “My godfather paid for it.” “Miguel!” I growled.
Dame’s POVMy wolf scratched the earth's surface intensely as I kept running. It is so weird that anyone would pull up an attack on Kate. I couldn’t sleep a wink all through the night and had to put a call through to one of my trusted guards to carry out an investigation. From the company’s car park CCTV footage, the culprit was seen entering and making the attack. Only one camera was able to record the scene. He must have missed the positioning of that camera. After touring the woods long enough, I returned to the packhouse. After getting dressed for work, I stepped out of my room into the hallway bumping into Jean.
Jean’s POVRubbing at my belly anxiously, I paced the living room back and forth. Mum wasn’t having it. “Can you just sit your butt somewhere? What pregnant lady has the strength to keep moving around without caution?” She questioned. “I am not exactly moving around without caution. It is a slow walk.” I gritted. “And I wouldn’t be in this situation if your supposed boy had given an apt report of the job given to him. Dame keeps giving me suspicious glances, neither has the news of Kate’s downfall reached me. Tell me exactly how I am supposed to be c
Dame’s POV“I am so sorry, Kate,” I muttered helplessly. She eventually made it to work and explained to me how Jean came to her to boast of her involvement in the attack that took place. I should have known that witch Jean had something to do with Kate getting hurt. She is no doubt the most likely person to wish for her disappearance. I rubbed slowly at my forehead feeling an intense urge to snuff life out of her wherever she was. No wonder I tried hard to trace the culprit that attacked her and got nothing. Whoever he is, they made sure he would never be an easy person to find. Kate shrugged and held my gaze with so many emotions emitting in her eyes. “I knew there wouldn’t be rosy moments for me coming back here to be with you. All the same, I didn’t expect myself to be in such danger so soon. I think you should go back to Jean. It is wrong for me to want her place at first. Anyone would have reacted the way she did if they were in her shoes. I probably would have.” “Hell no. T
Dame’s POVIt took a while for my eyes to adjust to the chaos. For a moment I thought my house was on fire. The very house that I had sorted the design myself after tearing it down from the old design to create a masterpiece. My legs wobbled as I breathed hard in a hide to get a hold of myself. Behind the raving fire was Jean tossing things into it to make it blow more. My mouth was agape in utmost shock when I looked down at one of the things she threw and it happened to be one of my expensive wristwatches. Wait a minute, this bitch is actually burning my stuff. My concern was replaced with anger. I stomped my feet towards her angrily. Without thinking I slapped her hard across the face. Everyone around gasped loudly. Jean put a hand to her face and before I could strike another blow she ran off. “Have you all gone mad? Get some water and quench the fire, you stupid peasants. How dare you all just stand by and watch her make a mess of my things? You had better have that dead in a
Kate’s POVI sucked my teeth in irritation as I stared at my wristwatch again. Dame should be sacked right this minute and told never to step foot into the company ever again. He is never available when he is needed. We were supposed to have a meeting with investors today and he knew just how important this is. But what can I expect of someone like him who is so engrossed with himself and cares nothing about others? Myself and a few heads of departments plus Lance have been seated like morons for minutes and he is still unreachable. I am still reeling from his attempt to touch me in his office over an hour ago that I am quite in the mood to smack his face and talk sense into his numb skull.
Jean’s POVI woke up with an intense ache in the side of my head. As I managed to sit up, someone rushed to my side to hand me a glass of water. I drank it with relish before adjusting my eyes to the room. “Beta Lance,” I muttered in a croaky voice. “Hi there.” He smiled tightly. “How are you feeling?” I sat up gently feeling aches all over my body and for a moment my face felt stiff. “I feel wrecked.”&nbs
Kate’s POV“He is nothing short of a beast. I can’t believe Jean went through all of that in his hands. What was she thinking?” I ranted, taking a swig at my can of soda. It seemed like the only thing I could let settle in my belly. Lois crunched on his bowl of chips. “I know this might sound cruel of me, but I can’t feel sorry for her. She got herself into this. If only you know how much trouble she causes herself. Jean would go around the pack like a maniac looking for her husband. She is practically obsessed with him.” The sight of the two of them in such hea
