Thank you everyone for the love on the last update. I truly appreciate all the gems and comments! ♡
ZAIA. “I want to speak to him,” I say firmly, looking at the men who stand outside the small prison facility where werewolves are kept until they await trial. Most things are handled by local law enforcement unless it involves something very personal to werewolves. “We can’t allow that. I’m afrai
“Fuck?” “Bastian! I mean, be together.” I shake my head. “Be together? Is that really you saying that? I guess it’s your fault for taking so long to take me back,” he says arrogantly, the Bastian I know showing through, and it brings a smile to my face. “Well, I don’t play easy… You needed to beg
I listen to her, not questioning her on anything. Although several of the people present asked her questions occasionally, I am waiting for her to finish. She’s a good actress, she’s in tears already, rocking in her chair and rubbing her belly. “Are you finished?” I ask. “Y-yes…” she says as I mo
ZAIA. Her face pales and her lips quiver as she stares at me, terror plastered on her face. What is she so afraid of? “I… can’t say.” “Why not?” I ask. Annette is frowning as she watches her daughter, but she does not look as scared but rather… confused. Does she not know? Annalise shakes her
“I can’t! It’ll kill me and my baby!” she screams as she jumps up, gripping her stomach. “What will?” “The magic!” she begins sobbing, covering her face with her hands. “What lies!” someone scoffs but I frown, something mom had said… “Magic does not exist,” one of the court members sneers. “It
ZAIA. She isn’t innocent; I know that more than anyone. From a young age, she would be cruel to me. When I did go to Dad’s to spend a little time with him, she would let Annalise pinch and hit me, then threaten me to stay silent or say that if I told anyone, I wouldn’t get to come over. I remembe
“Well then, what do I do if they reach out to me?” she asks. “Ask them to help Annalise. Don’t threaten them. Just say Annalise asked you to reach out to them. Do not contact me, and do not try to ring me or visit me, I will arrange a meeting myself. They are dangerous people, Annette, those who wi
Oh, he knew I was heading there… I poke my eyes out at him. “I refuse to comment!” I say, opening the door and exiting the building as I hea Valerie laughing. I shake my head, pouting a little at the fact I was caught. I drive to the prison facility, scanning myself in. I had been put onto the sec
“Careful, Tobias,” one of the men warns.I sip my champagne. “I assure you; I am very critical of him too, but what I do know is he topped in every field in comparison to every other alpha in the state. He is known to be fair, reasonable, and strong enough to handle the pressure that leading the sup
~ MILENA ~“I know. Nice to meet you, Mrs King. I’m Milena,” I introduce myself as I offer her my hand, but she moves closer, giving me a hug.“Lovely to meet you, Milena. Call me Zaia.” She moves back and looks at Valerie. “This is my good friend and Zion’s aunty, Valerie.”“Nice to meet you, Docto
~~~ An hour later we are walking into a luxurious glamourous venue where the security is intense. Nothing went by undetected and I’m glad the broken vase piece is clay because we were checked over with metal detectors at the second stop before a third set of guards checked any bags. I’m not carryin
~ MILENA ~“So, you’re really not going to give me a weapon to carry?” I call through the door as I get into the dress he purchased for me. It’s gorgeous, a plain deep maroon with a slit down the left thigh and pools on the floor. It pushes up my breasts, and the corset is damn fucking tight. It’s a
I clench my jaw. “No. Nothing.”She snorts. “Right, so want my help or not?”“How can I trust that you won’t just fucking walk away?”“I told you why I was sent here. What would walking away get me when I learned fuck-all about you? Like really, what do you want from me, Zion?”“Something that will
~ ZION ~“Do you want to tell me what the hell you’re doing with a human!” Dad snarls, trying to control his anger. “This is something I’d expect from Xander, not you.”“I’m not a child that you need to tell off, Dad. I am capable of making my own decisions. You shouldn’t have come here.”“Oh really
He glares at his phone as it goes to the answering machine and turns his head to the men who had hurried in behind him, looking tense. It’s clear Zion may be their boss, but Sebastian King is still his goddamned father.“Call Zion and tell him to get here immediately.”“Yes, Alpha.” One of the men l
~ MILENA ~The next few days I didn’t see Zion, left alone with just a TV that allows only a few movies to play, the access to the internet was blocked on everything. The internet is non-existent.I felt suffocated, not knowing what to think. Will he agree? Because otherwise, I would love to know wh
“Right, but really, do you think I’m looking for a way to kill you? I’m trying to get answers here,” she snaps. “Why can’t you understand that?”“Because you tried to kill me, remember?”“Because you killed my brother. You knew who he was and yet carried on with this pretend relationship. You used m
