Jean’s POV
“Ahhhhh!” I screamed at the top of my lungs while pushing everything that stood in my way.What the fuck is going on? I knew I set Mia up but I didn’t expect he would want to flaunt her atthe slightest opportunity. Just like he does with the rest of the ladies he had fucked, thought thiswould be a one-time thing.What have I done? What did that bitch tell him? Or did she actually tell him everything weplanned? I am so going to kill her if that happens to be the case. That bastard, Dame! He is goingto be the death of me.Because of him members of the packhouse hardly show me any respect. And now he hashumiliated me again by giving them something to gossip about. Tears rolled down my faceuncontrollably. I never should have gone to eavedrop on what might be going on in Dame’sroom.I ended up hearing Mia’s passionate moan and Dame’s pleasured grunts. The few times we hDame’s POVThe maids hurried through the hallway as they whispered to one another saying something wasout there. I cursed under my breath. They seem to have a lot of free time on their hands with theway they keep running about.I didn’t think whatever it was that must have caught their interest would have anything to dowith me, until I got outside to see Jean breaking the window shields of my two favorite cars witha baseball bat. She already left one in shambles and had descended on the other orn.“What the fuck? Jean, have you lost your mind?” I yelled.She laughed like a maniac baring her teeth at me. “Oh, you haven’t discovered yet? I have reallylost it!” She replied and kept on with her hitting.I turned to the guards. “You fools! Why is no one stopping her?”Like they were just controlled by a remote, the guards rushed to her and lifted Jean off theground. She
Kate’s POV“Kate!” Jake embraced me with a full-blown smile on his face.I don’t know how he is able to keep the energy. Before I got here I had blown so much nose fluidinto the tissue from crying that I doubted there be any left for the next two days.“How are you doing?” I asked, cupping his face in my palm like I could deduce something from it.He sighed and laughed. “I am doing just great. How are you too? Thanks for coming, come on in.”“I am fine. I am surprised you came to invite me in yourself.” I said.“As soon as I heard the car, I knew it was you. Also, I needed to tell you something before we goin.”“Okay.”He paused and held my hand. “I don’t want to tell the news to them.”“Why?”Jake sighed. “I don’t need the pity. I just want to have fun as much as I can until death takes me
Cassian“Hmmn.” I let out a painful groan, unable to keep it to myself any longer.It's almost as if the more we get into the exercise, the harder it gets. And Lyra isn’t being nice tome. It is probably her means to get revenge on me for how I had judged the argument betweenher and Amy.“I can’t go further,” I said breathless.“Just three more to go,” Lyra replied stiffly.Shutting my eyes tightly, I managed to scale through the rest while consoling myself with thethought of the massage. Only for me to get on with taking my clothes off and she stopped me.“Why?” I inquired genuinely taken aback.“I need you to take the juice for a few days before we do that again. It is just to make sure that itis working.” She mumbled.I searched her face for any kind of spite she might be hiding away. I have been anticipating themassage like my life
Mark’s POV“What do you mean by Kate is returning to the company? She was suspended from the companyremember.” I stated eyeballing Marilyn.Marilyn looked up from the file she had in front of her and stared me down. “Kate is a key pathof the company and has to be involved in the projects.”A disgusted scoff escaped my lips. “Do you hear yourself? She is barely four years in the companyand you also enlisted her as a key part of us. How much did she pay you to slot her back in.”“If you aren’t Jake’s son, I would have smacked the living daylight out of you.” She said calmly.“What?” I shifted on my crutches while trying not to relax on the healing leg too much.“Act deaf all you want. Kate has been let back into the company, so I would advise you to get agrip on yourself. We need this project to work out without you creating any kind of mess and I
Kate’s POV“Where is this place?” Jake asked as I opened the car door for him to get off.I laughed a little and stood next to him. “When we go in you will see. But for a heads up, It is aprivate beach. And I invited Marilyn.”He gave me a suspicious glance. His wolf seemed to be growling in disapproval too. “Why? Whyinvite Marilyn when we are supposed to be spending time together?” His voice seemed raisedand I can almost tell why it is like that.I scratched the back of my neck. “She wanted to be here. Also, I had asked her to come.”Marilyn had bumped into Jake when he thought no one was watching as he coughed up blood. Ididn’t need to be there to be fully aware of the gruesome sight that must have been. She fearedsomething terrible was going on and thought to share it with me. I couldn’t respond to herupright that I knew what was happening. Bringing Jake
Mark’s POVA light yawn escaped my lips as I entered the house, i pulled at my tie feeling exhausted. The dayseemed so long that I was worried it wouldn’t end soon. From one meeting to another, I almostdidn’t catch a break. Just when I thought the rest of the day would go smoothly. I caught sight ofKate strolling casually down the stairs.How did I miss the car outside?“What are you doing here?” I questioned.Kate gave me a stare-down and walked towards the kitchen like she didn’t hear me. I wanted togo after her but my wolf cautioned me. Putting too much pressure on my legs that I practicallyjust laid off crutches wouldn’t be too nice. I acquiesced and headed to my room.Dad sure knows how to do everything to get on my last nerve. I thought there was an unspokenagreement to not let her back into the house. I got changed and headed towards his room.Marilyn stood in my way.
Kate’s POVJake died when the moon was in its full glory in the middle of the night. He went so soundly, thatone would have thought he was just sleeping. Mark had gone bonkers as he kept calling severalspecialists in different packs begging them to save his father. It turns out that most of the travelsJake indulged in, he went to seek for the specialist's help. But nothing came to play.He must have been desperate to remain alive and had been a hard time for him going through allof that alone. Such a shame that he couldn’t get what he sought. I haven’t been able to cry sincethe incident two days ago. My heart seemed like it was frozen and my eyes laced heavily withunshed tears. My tongue has taken an involuntary break making it difficult for me to want to sayanything.I sighed again in exhaustion, it is so hard to lose someone that you have almost idolized to neverbe gone. My heart is in shamble
Dame’s POVAll my life I have never been so eager to see someone on their return from a trip as I am feelingtowards Lance’s arrival from Diamond Pack. He has been gone for over two weeks, tending toother things. He had called to say he had some important news to share when he got on theplane back home. Which I really hope is in terms of the company. With the major owner dead, Iasked him to speak to the son if he was willing to sell.I don’t mind selling off the pack to get it. I need my company back. I paced the study back andforth, sucking my teeth. I checked the time and he should be here by now. Just when I was aboutto put a call through again, the door opened, relieving me of my stress.“What the hell, Lance? Are you a snail? Why did it take you so long to get here?”He made a snorty sound, plopping onto the couch with a smirk on his face. “I do not owe you mymovement. I had to go h
