Her Secret Keeper Meeting Mr. Preston
Tara-I had slipped out of the pack house unnoticed to go pick up Liv at Creede. It was so good to see my parents that I almost risked being a little late.“I miss you, Mom,” I said, straining to keep the tears from falling.“We miss you too, honey. I’m so glad you got Liv to come by more often,” my mom smiled, although she looked very worried.She knew I was doing this behind Mason’s back and that if he found out, I would be in trouble. After bidding goodbye, Liv hopped in the car and we headed back home. I took out some of my perfume and spritz it a few times on Liv and myself, hoping to mask the scent of home. Liv frowned at me, but didn’t complain. She was too excited about meeting the big important celebrity tonight. Apparently, she was his biggest fan. He had created some company in security or something and he was a billionaire now. We should feel very honored that he was personally overseeing the installation in our pack, or so she says.“Mom, you better dress up toni

Jayce-The minute my eyes locked with hers, it was like the world had faded away and we were the only two people in the room. Her cherry-orange scent smacked me back to reality and I forced myself to keep greeting these crazed fanatics, but dear Goddess, I could not tear my eyes away from her. She was my mate. My true, fated mate. My Goddess given mate. And she had marked and mated another, conceived a child and all. I was angry. My plot for revenge would become more difficult than I thought. Jax was going berserk in my mind. Yelling and prancing around like an asshole.‘Mate! Mate! Tara’s our Mate! Goddess, I knew it! I knew all along there was something special about her. She’s ours,’ he howled, giving me a headache.‘Shut up, you moron. Can’t you see we cannot have her? She’s marked,’ I said, not feeling an inch of guilt for bursting his bubble.I tried to make my way to her quickly, eager to show her everything she had thrown away. My eyes had raked up and down he

Tara-I walked away from Jayce as gracefully as I could. He wasn’t the same, sweet boy I remember. He had turned into a rich prick. Coming here to rub his success in my face. Was he trying to hurt me? Of course he was, why else would he be here. I broke his heart in the cruelest way. I didn’t blame him for trying to have his revenge on me, I just didn’t think Jayce could ever be capable of that. But I guess people change….The pain in my chest was finally subsiding as the pills took their effect. I found Olivia by the snack table, drinking punch while some young boy talked her ear off. My baby girl was not so easily swayed by these silly boys and I was damn proud of her.“Good Evening, Luna,” the boy bowed, smiling like he just stepped out of the dentist office.“Good Evening…” I responded.“Grant,” he provided with an award winning smile.“Grant. I haven’t see you around here,” I reply, looking at Livvy who is rolling her eyes in annoyance.“That’s because I belong to Will

Jayce-“What happened?” I asked Belle as soon as she entered the SUV.“I’m sorry. I tried to keep his attention, but I think his wolf was sensing Tara’s distress. His eyes kept flashing,” Belle responded, looking ashamed at her failed task.Twice, Mason had interrupted my time with Tara earlier. It was Belle’s job to keep him entertained and away from us, while I had my time with Tara. I would have to see about silencing his wolf since he had a connection with her because of the mate bond.Tomorrow, I would look into his finances, digging up whatever dirt I could find on the prick. We made it back to the hotel where I went up to my room to shower. I scrolled through the contacts on my phone afterward, dialing a number I hadn’t used in a while.“It’s been awhile,” the familiar voice said on the other line.“I know. I need something,” I cut right to the chase.The next morning, I dressed immaculately. I would be visiting Tara in her office today, hopefully she’d actually be ther

Mason- I was fucking pissed last night. Things with Belle were moving along swiftly. She had hauled me off the dance floor, pulling me into a linen closet where she shoved me against the door. I could smell her arousal, she was practically begging for my cock. I kissed her hungrily as her hands got straight to work, unbuckling my belt and pulling my cock out. She was giving me a handy as I groped her tits. “Alpha, I want to taste you,” she purred, getting down on her knees and taking me in her mouth. My head fell back against the door as she sucked me off. Goddess she was so much better than all the inexperienced omegas around here. Most of them were virgins before I took them, which was okay and all, but sometimes you just needed a woman who knew what she was doing and not some innocent pup. I groaned as she worked me, her hand cupping my balls and massaging them. She kept moaning, like she was enjoying sucking me. Goddess she had me hooked on her. The little slut was wo

Tara-“You just said you fell,” he accused, his brows furrowing.Shit. I did just say that. I kept my eyes on the floor, too afraid to look into his caramel ones.“I meant, I fell at training,” I replied, “You know how rough it can get.”Of course! People shift during training to fight in wolf form also, which would explain the claw marks as well.“Yeah, I do. Remember I used to watch you,” he replied, making my cheeks flush at the memories.“Except, you haven’t trained in years. Why are you lying to me, Tara? What are you hiding?” he said, taking my hands in his rough, calloused ones.I was in panic. I yanked my hands out of his, turning in my chair to face my desk, “I’m not lying.”How the fuck did he know I hadn’t trained in years? These bloody servants must be running their damn mouths, spilling all the gossip. But why would he be looking into it anyways? Maybe it’s all part of his plan of revenge. Learn all his my dirty secrets before he takes me down or whatever his p

Jayce-‘Noo! What are you doing? We can’t let her go back to that monster. Release me! I’ll rip his throat out,’ Jax growled, fighting for control as I made my way back to the temporary office I had been lent.‘Cut your shit, Jax,’ I wrestled, ‘He’s an Alpha. We can’t act so rash. Even if you won’t admit it, you know he will beat us. We need to plan, calculate,’ I reasoned.‘Fuck your calculating, you fucking geek,’ Jax roared, his claws ripping through my fingers, ‘Set me free, you fucking pussy. I’ll save MY mate!’It took every ounce of strength I had to contain him. He was furious after learning Mason was abusive to Tara. The only reason he hadn’t reacted earlier was the fact that she was in our arms, keeping him calm. But the minute I walked away from her, he went ballistic. He fought for control, sending me crashing into the wall, the sound of breaking glass from the once neatly hung picture frames hitting the floor resonating in the room. His claws pierced the couch

Trey-Hanging up with Jay, I sighed heavily. Why did she have to turn out to be his fucking fated mate? I stepped back inside from my balcony, walking over to my laptop to go over the files Jay had sent me again. I had already seen some beforehand, but Jay seemed to be a lot more thorough in his investigation. I knew Mason was in debt, but I had no idea just how far it went. He owed so many banks money, the cops would be knocking down his door any minute now to drag him to court.I already knew this account would be a bust, so when Jay told me I had to feign surprise. You see, I had orchestrated this entire thing. I met Jay in college. He was a scrawny shy boy back then. I found him one day, looking like a lost sheep in the meadow. He was cleaning the sweat off his glasses, attempting to read the instructions on some work out machine. He looked so out of place. What the heck was this scrawny nerd doing in a gym? But after I got a good look at him, I realized who he was.

Her Secret Keeper A/N
I am so sorry for going MIA on all of you. I have been trying my best to continue on this work, but current life events have proved stressful. After suffering a miscarriage three years ago and since then having been unable to conceive, I am excited to share with everyone that I am now 6 months pregnant with another boy! Due to the unfortunate circumstances of my previous miscarriage, I decided to take a step away from anything and everything that causes stress. Unfortunately, this couldn't include my main source of income which was my job in management at a fast food burger place. That alone is stressful enough. So, this is the reason for the delay in updates. I am truly sorry to all my loyal readers and I hope you understand that although this was a difficult decision, it was both necessary and important for both my mental and physical health. Thank you.
Her Secret Keeper Going Home to Creede
Tara-Jayce returned to the room after a while and said our ride was waiting for us. Despite trying to stand on my own, Jayce came and lifted me up into his arms. I knew he was still in a little pain as he winced slightly when he stood upright. Livvy clung to my hand like a life line. I could still feel her confusion and shock. I needed to talk to her as soon as I could.We piled into the black SUV, Livvy climbing in first as Jayce placed me down beside her. He looked reluctant to leave my side as he climbed into the passenger seat. We headed out toward the gates. I looked out the window at the warriors still scurrying around. Everything felt so surreal. The weight lifted from my chest made me feel odd. I guess it would be something I needed to get used to.I no longer had to live in fear. I no longer had to force myself and my wolf to behave in a way someone else demanded from me. Between me and Jayce, I was the Alpha wolf, which made Scar feel a bit strange. I sat nerv
Her Secret Keeper Alpha Trenton
Jayce-When Mason made his heinous proposition, I must admit I was furious. The mere fact that someone had rumored this about me, made my blood boil. I was not a pedophile who married little girls. I was livid. But then I thought that maybe this would be a better alternative than murdering him, which ironically made me feel a bit better. I knew taking someone’s life was the type of thing you wouldn’t forget and would probably carry around with you your entire life, no matter how bad or deserving this person was. But I was determined to save Tara’s life. I wouldn’t leave her with him to be potentially killed and risk all the lives she said were at stake. It was better if he were dead.I went along with his plan. A million dollars was pennies compared to my fortune. To be honest, he probably could have gotten a lot more out of me. But I knew he was desperate and a million would clear his name and fuel his pack for a few years. He’d be able to make some investments if he was
Her Secret Keeper Leaving Crimson
Tara- I frantically stuffed clothes into a small suitcase. As I looked around the room, I knew I wanted to take as little as possible. I didn’t need any reminders of this place or this life. I was a little thrown off when Mason had suggested that Livvy marry Jayce. I knew that there had been some sort of ruse, I was just disturbed by the crudeness of it. And by the fact that Mason would even agree. I didn’t think I could despise him more, but I guess he proved me wrong. I grabbed some toiletries from the bathroom. I made sure to pack my jewelry I brought with me from Creede and a few books my mother had gifted me a few years ago. She had written a touching letter in one of the blank pages that I often read when I was feeling homesick. I grabbed a few clothes, only a few days worth knowing we would probably go shopping when we arrived at Jayce’s penthouse. Satisfied with what I was taking, I went to Livvy’s room. “Mom, what’s going on?” she said, stepping away from her com
Her Secret Keeper Rejection
Mason- I stared down at the little piece of paper in my hands. It was a wonder how something so tiny could bring me a world of peace. This would pay my debts ten fold. I would have enough money to buy some companies and right all the wrong choices I had made. I could figure this out. A do over is what Jay had granted me. Buried deep in the back of my mind was that small voice telling me not to sell my daughter or my wife, but I knew they were easily replaceable. Shit, maybe I could convince Belle to just stay permanently. She was a better fuck than Tara ever was. Maybe she’d even be able to give me the son I’ve always wanted. If she didn’t, Jay was right. I had a lot of choices. Alpha Daniel had even offered me his daughter’s hand in marriage, if I wasn’t already married. And she was a fine piece of ass. I think I might give her a visit in a few weeks, see if she’s still hot. It was a shame I’d have to give Tara up for awhile, but on the bright side, I’d have two bitche
Her Secret Keeper Making Deals
Jayce- Leaving Tara’s room, I headed back to my temporary office. Belle reported that Mason was still knocked out. She managed to slip him the sleeping pill as well as the one for his wolf without him realizing. She was pretty pissed off this morning when she found me in the office and confronted me. I understood where she was coming from. She was putting herself in a very vulnerable position for me. She had always been that way. I don’t know if it was because she had feelings for me that ran deeper than friendship or if it was just because of her loyalty to me. Either way, I was grateful to have her by my side, now more than ever. Which is when I guess Tara had eavesdropped and heard the whole thing. She must’ve taken off too soon before she even heard my response. I told Belle that the plan had taken a 180. It was no longer a mission to divide and conquer, but a search and rescue. I told her Tara was my fated mate and how every second we left her here, she spent in dang
Her Secret Keeper Reunion
Tara-“Are you insane?” I hissed, fuming with anger, “If anyone see’s you, they’d report back to Mason right away.”“Relax, no one saw me,” he replied, stepping closer to me.I stepped around him, heading for my bedroom door, “You need to leave.”His face contorted in confusion, “What did I do?”I schooled my face and ignored his question, my head poking out into the hall.“No one is around, please leave now before anyone sees you,” I replied keeping my voice even.He marched right up to me, my heart racing when he pushed the door shut, reaching down to turn the lock. I tried to move him out of the way and unlock it when he grabbed my wrists.“Let me go, Mr. Preston. And get out of my room,” I scolded.“Okay, you’re mad, but tell me why?” he replied, attempting to keep my hands without hurting me.“I am none of your concern. Leave,” I replied sternly, finally meeting his gaze.His caramel eyes were soft and concerned as he looked at me. I bit my lip, remembering the things I heard
Her Secret Keeper Betrayal
Tara- Waking up early this morning, I checked the fresh bruises in the mirror before dressing. It seems even if Belle had helped Mason find a release, even that couldn’t put him in a good mood. He came banging on my door late last night. He was drunk and mumbling something about bank statements and threats. He said it was my fault, of course. He had to find someone to blame that wasn’t himself. He tired himself out after a few hits, face planting on my floor. I called Beta Rue to come collect him. He was way too heavy for me to carry back to his own room. Being in a drunken state, he was careless. There was a bruise on my cheek that not enough makeup in the world could hide. I shook my head and headed downstairs for breakfast. To my surprise, Dominic was waiting outside my door. He took one look at my cheek and shook his head, looking guilty. “You’ve seen worse, Dom. Enough of the pity party, what do you want?” I asked, walking past him. “I just heard that he visited y
