My head ached as I managed to sit up. Squinting my eyes in the dimmed room, I yawned slightly.It’s not morning yet, but a perfect time for a run. One glance at Jake and he looks peacefulsleeping. I got dressed and headed out for a run. I choose to not shift and stretch my legsinstead. My wolf isn’t fully awake yet either.Plugging in my earpods and started running. My thoughts rummaged on the project we areabout to delve into. I will be getting the budget approval tomorrow and I can’t wait to get startedwith it. This will launch me further and help strengthen my place in the Mccatty family. Eventhough Jake assures me that my place is secured.I do not want to be too relaxed to avoid stories that touch in the future. Having Jake feels like thegoddess's way of compensating me for all of the pains I was subjected to endure. I won’t backdown too. Just in case Mark decides to oRelated chapters

Mark’s POV “What is all this about Mark?” Kate barged into my office tossing the file in her hand at me. Shelooks livid and I feel so glad to see her in this state. I stared down at it with a reserved gaze. I have been expecting the outburst. It took her quite long. I sniffed, unfazed. “What do you mean?” “You bastard! You know exactly what you did. Why in the world is the budget for the project cut down so low?” She questioned. “I am not the financial officer. Why ask me such a question?” “Because I was told you would only append your signature if the budget was cut so low.” “Well, I am not going to deny saying it. What I do not understand is what you want from me.” She scoffed looking livid. “How far do you intend to go with this sour attitude? It is understandable if you do not like me. Do you have to drag your father’s business into it?” “Since when have you ever cared about my father’s business? You and I know

Kate’s POV“This is bullshit!” I cursed, not minding the fact that I was in the office.Marilyn had a sorry look in her eyes as she held my gaze. “I know this must be a lot for you. I amso sorry.”I scoffed. “Why should you be sorry? You didn’t put me in this position unless, of course, you areworking with Mark against me.”My words were supposed to offend her, but instead, she took it in good strides and only noddedslightly.“I don’t need to pledge to you for the sake of your ego. I don’t play petty.” She replied.With my head bowed, I sighed. “I am sorry. I am just so overwhelmed.”“There would be no need for it if you would just tell Jake about all of this.”“And to what extent? How long do I have to keep running to him? Mark challenged me and I amgoing to do all that it takes to achieve this project no matter what.

Kate’s POV“Do you have anything to prove to us that it isn’t true?” Another board member asked.Something seemed to have gotten stuck in my throat. The file had a report of the budget spenton all of the projects that I have handled in the last two years. The approved board budget wasthere and the amounts were disbursed. On the second page is the money I am accused ofhoarding for myself.“Now that you have seen it, is there something you have to say to defend yourself?” Markinterjected. “Because the field workers are here to defend themselves against your tyrannicalact.”The walls suddenly seemed like it was closing up on me. My breathing was uneven, and everyonehad a mocking expression. I can hear their laughter in my head even though their faces remainedplain. It took me back all over again i can see their phones being held up to capture myembarrassing moments.

Mark’s POVThe room swirled under my feet, pushing me to grab the edge of the table to keep myself steady.My wolf felt restless, I wish I could let myself go and just put a bit of disruption into thecompany. How? How the fuck did Kate slip away this time? What exactly is it that she has on myfather to make him so in tune with her?It can’t be the red hair! Even though it does burn like a cooling fire and can make anyone lost init. It still doesn’t matter. There is a reason he is a bloody old wolf. He is meant to understand lifebeyond its physicality.I growled in discomfort as pain struck the side of my head. My breathing is tangled with difficultyand I just can’t seem to get a grip on myself. The legs wobbled causing me to stagger towards thechairs and fall to the ground.“You are just fooling yourself! Stop lying to yourself!” The voice in my head kept echoing in ataunting tone.

Kate’s POVNothing interested my eyes, my bones ache for a massage and my limbs just want to rest. It’sbeen two days since that doomed meeting with the board and having strange people lie againstme. Since Jake instructed that I continue with the project, I have been keeping late nights just tofind a way out of the disaster lying in wait for me.As for Jake, he seems to want nothing to do with me lately. He is obviously avoiding me and hasbeen returning to the room quite late. I wake up to find the other bed empty and he is alwaysnowhere to be found. He isn’t at the company either. Whenever I call, it goes directly tovoicemail. He is quite determined.But today, I do not intend to back down. I will wait until he is back. Which is why I left workearlier than expected. I can do whatever I need to do from home. The maids all mumbled agreeting and I replied with a grunt. I settled myself on the couch and pro

Kate’s POV“Are you sure this is good enough?” I questioned Bethel while staring the proposal down.She beamed proudly. “I worked on it all through the night. It is definitely good.”I tugged at my hair. She didn’t get the sarcasm. Sometimes I can’t help but think that she mightbe quite slow.I cleared my throat and sat up. “Bethel, my point is, this proposal will have me thrown out of theoffice in no time. This doesn’t cut it out. But you can do better. Why not check it again?” I urgedin a calm tone.Marilyn made her way in with a snort. “You knew she wouldn’t be able to get it right. Yet youhanded it to her.”“Please, Marilyn. A benefit of the doubt. Let her be.” I said, noticing Bethel’s crestfallen face. “Gorephrase it and let me see what you have. Remember that proposal on the new project? You canuse that as a re

Kate’s POVJake and Marilyn were laughing hard as I narrated my ordeal with Miguel.I stomped my feet glaring at them. “That is not funny.”“Why not?” Jake asked. “My dear, we expected it to happen. Why didn’t you?”“You are my husband for crying out loud. Why would you even say something like that?” Iwhined.“Tell her Marilyn.” He urged.Marilyn stared at me still grinning. “You are a beauty to behold. He would be a fool to not atleast try to get to you.”“I am married and he still asks me on a date.” I insisted.I just couldn’t believe the audacity of the Alpha. It had me in shock all through the ride that Ididn’t bother to return to work and went to meet Marilyn where she had joined Jake to play golf.As expected Jake didn’t look any surprised that I got asked out. My wolf seemed to be enjoyingthe ta

Kate’s POVWhen Alpha Miguel said he would make sure that I do not feel unsafe wherever we are to meet.I didn’t expect he would rent out an entire restaurant for us. This only makes me feel moreparanoid. His car had come to pick me up as promised and to avoid giving the maids somethingto gossip about. I met the driver halfway as soon as he informed me he was near.I blinked at the exquisite design of the space. Isn’t this too much for a mere date?“Why? Don’t tell me you aren’t used to things like this.” He cut into my train of thought.I coughed in shock. I didn’t realize I had spoken out loud. “It is not about what I am used to. It iswhat the people will end up saying.”Miguel shrugged. “I did this because you didn’t want to be seen in public. Would you havepreferred my manor?” There was a twinkle in his eyes.I rolled my eyes, refusing to let him get to me. I was about to ask what we might be eating whena group of waiters pushed towards us with trolleys of different delicacie

Kate’s POV“A bouquet?” My wolf noted before I did. A small smile tugged at my lips as I got closer to the table wondering who would have sent such beautiful flowers and a chocolate box to me. I had a guess it might be Mark. I snatched it from the table hopefully and the hopes were dashed immediately i read the note from the sender. Sucking my teeth, I tossed the flowers into the trash can and was about to do the same with the chocolate box when Karen yelled out to me. “Wait!”
Her Revenge, His Regret Chapter 199
Mark’s POVWhat would have been the odds three years ago if I was told patience would be something I had to learn the hard way? I never did much work to love anyone. Just thought it didn’t require too much and gift buying was enough. However, getting on with Kate has made me realize I have to do beyond buying her gifts or taking her out to eat.She needs to see that I mean everything I tell her from every little action I put out. To think I had to learn this from loose-headed Karen. I must have been a lost cause. Humming to myself as I flipped the pancake in the pan, I smiled to myself at the detailed breakfast. I went all out just so she wouldn’t give an excuse for not wanting to eat something
Her Revenge, His Regret Chapter 198
Mark’s POVHave never felt this frustrated in my entire life. Tugging at the tail end of my hair, I punched at the bed in exhaustion. I have been trying to sleep, but instead, all that keeps coming to my head is everything Kate said to me. What is wrong with her? Why would she even go to such extreme thoughts? It’s becoming a routine of us going through this many emotions to understand a simple discussion. I don’t know how else to handle her insecurity. “Do you think she is wrong to have them?” My wolf asked. I inhaled sharply, rubbing at the back of my neck. I feel so restless, if I don’t get this aching thought out of my head then it will be a big-time pain for me. Pulling off the sheets, I stepped out of the room to go for a run. I felt too lazy to shift into my wolf, so I just ran on my feet for a bit. Five minutes later, I found myself on the porch breathing like I had just been punched in my gut. Karen’s presence took me by surprise, I was too engrossed in myself and didn’t

Kate’s POV“Who the fuck do that bitch think she is? How dare her come at you like that?” Karen whined as I entered the house. To keep my mind from going back on forth on the many occurrences of today, I went to the woods to run. On my return, Karen still hadn’t gotten over the scene Rayna pulled. I huffed, sitting opposite her with my legs crossed. “Can we stop talking about her already? How were you fuming for over an hour with no one here with you?” I inquired.
Her Revenge, His Regret Chapter 196
Mark’s POVWho would have thought a time would come in my and Kate’s life when she gets to rant about her day to me and I just sit through it all listening to her? Despite the evident anger on her face, she looks beautiful. “You are ogling her.” My wolf taunted. I smiled to myself, taking a sip of my drink to keep it hidden. Crazy Karen on the other hand can’t seem to hide the amusement she was feeling while Kate lamented. I wasn’t surprised when I saw them together. Since Karen insisted on following Kate to the office, I knew they wouldn’t move apart for the re

Kate’s POV“In my entire life, I don’t think I have met someone as heartless as Dame. Did you see his face? He didn’t appear to be mourning.” I complained to Lois as we settled into the office couch. Karen who had decided she wanted to come to the office with me scoffed. “You mentioned he never loved her. How do you expect someone like that to mourn over her? He must be glad she is dead.” Lois let out a tired yawn. “We have come to the conclusion a long time ago that Dame isn’t and would never be worth the emotion. As much as it hurts that Jean had t
Her Revenge, His Regret Chapter 194
Kate’s POVTears rolled down my face uncontrollably as I watched the funeral procession of Jean from afar. It was just Judith all by herself with Jean’s urn in her hand by the beach. Must be quite a sad life to have no one to lean on in this time of need. I would have loved to join her, but no one asked me. To an extent I might be losing my mind, considering how I had followed Judith all the way from the hospital down here. I just couldn’t turn my back on her. Maybe it was the last words she said to me or doing what my dad would have expected of me. “I can’t believe Dame is
Her Revenge, His Regret Chapter 193
Dame’s POVThe yell outside the door had me awake with a migraine bursting up my head. My wolf growled as the noise got closer. Who the hell are those constituting nuisance so early in the day? Struggling out of bed, i bumped my feet into the lady lying on her chest next to me. Another laid recklessly on the couch. A pleased smile spread through my face, last night was wild. I naturally wouldn’t bring them back to the house but I couldn’t help it. Not after that stupid Jean was stressing me out with her whines. It seems she takes solace in stressing me out and nagging me. “What the hell?” I cursed out when the ruckus behind the door didn’t stop. Getting up and heading towards the door, my nose was almost reconstructed from the violent opening of the door. “There he is, the bloody bastard!” Judith screeched pushing back the guards who tried to stop her and throwing her shoe at me. “Have you lost your mind, Judith? How dare you barge into my space like this?” I questioned. “Are yo

Kate’s POV“Won’t it be nice to have some cold beer to support this game? My mind is on the verge of bursting.” Karen whined for the umpteenth time since we started playing Jenga. I already warned her it would take a toll on her thought process but she refused. Now I am at the tail end of listening to her yaps. “Can you stop being such a child, Karen? Don’t forget that I warned you about this game. You just never listen to me. I have had a long day and now I have to deal with your whining.”
