I had a plan.A plan that would make Bruce fall right into my hands if everything worked out.And this time, I wasn’t sending him to prison. I’d make sure I sliced off his head and bury his headless body right beside his mother’s. My blood burned a hot path in my veins as I thought of what he did to Katie. How he snuffed out her life without a trace of remorse. He thought he could escape my wrath by hiding behind a child's face. He obviously failed for I now knew who the little boy he shifted to. Theophilius. Thanks to none other than Nancy.She came to me a few days ago, spilling secrets like a broken faucet. She said she already knew I wasn’t hers and she knew she was living on borrowed time. So she offered me a deal: she would be a bait to lure Bruce out of his hiding place if spared her life and gave her a place in my pack. I got to know more about his shapeshifting abilities and their limitations. How his original body decayed with every transformation, forcing him to switch bac
Aimee’s P.O.VWe lay side by side on his bed, not touching except for our fingers which lay interwined between us on the mattress. It felt like a shy gesture, a tentative exploration of each other like teenagers learning to flirt with each other for the first time. That was how most normal relationships started though. Tentatively getting to know each other before the crazy stuff. But we got ours backwards and somehow it was working. or was it?I could feel his warmth, his heartbeat, his breath, but I didn't let him take me into his arms. He had asked me to stay with him, not for sex, he'd said, but for comfort. He said he needed me, and I couldn't refuse even though it was a little hard to be around him after everything that had happened without the intensity of the mate bond that had drive us wild. So there he was, Alpha Logan, lying sprawled on his side, naked except for his silk black boxers, his lips slightly parted and his eyes closed. If the lighting was better, I say his chee
Aimee's P.O.VClasses went without hassles today and I couldn't wait to return back to the pack. Logan kept to his words and has begun to rebuild the Beta's Tower. Although they didn't say it outrightly, most of the maids had started acting a little nicer towards me, even Isra who had abandoned me to work for Nancy.Only one thing left untended to and that's my suggestion that maybe Nancy set me up to be raped. I could understand why Logan found it hard to come to terms with. if that was true then he was wrong for punishing all of his men and to top it all, it meant, His brother and Nancy had more allies in his pack than he wanted to believe.he'd begun doubting if his closest pack officials and the elders were still loyal to him. I'd say he was now paranoid if his pack was being torn into two parts. a team for his brother and the other for him.And though they said one's mind worked best when paranoid, it could lead to his downfall if it overwhelmed him to the point of distrusting ev
My teeth clamped down on my lip to hold another yelp as he cursed under his breath and took the call.A robotic machine altered voice echoed through the speakerphone. “Did you succeed?” there is an unmatched excitement in the voice as if whoever it was wanted to come in and grab the tape they thought the man must have videoed already.“Not yet sir.” He finally responded.wait... What? Sir? It... it wasn't Nancy? “No? What are you holding back? Did that bitch say something to you? Let me tell you that she’s the most cunning person ever. She’s just stalling for time and waiting for people to save her. Do what I fucking asked you to and take the fucking video."The man seemed to be stimulated by the angry robotic voice and his eyes turn red again.He hung up the phone and gritted his teeth.I took a shaky step back, the blood draining from my face. this couldn't happen to me. I wouldn't allow it. tears spilled from my face unchecked.Instantly, the man rushed.over and pressed me tightly
Aimee's P.O.VI clutched my chest and scrambled away from the horror in front of me. My lips burned with pain, blood dripping down my chin into my knees which were tucked in beneath me.I was clad only in my bra, exposed and vulnerable to those monsters so I tightened my arms around me, rocking from side to side as my ears blurred. I couldn't bear to to look at the kidnapper or the man who'd saved me.My mind soon turned blank, the only emotion registering was terror. My lungs locked up, as if a noose tightened around my neck and I realized I couldn't breathe. From the back of my mind, I realize I was having a panic attack and all I had to do is open up my lungs and breath, but I couldn't stop it. No matter how hard I tried to tell myself to breathe, nothing was working. I was lying on the floor in my bra, heaving, sobbing, unable to breathe.I felt a hand on my head, and I curled into myself even more as my body trembled.“You’re safe, Katie.” the voice sounded distant yet familia
Author's p.o.vTheir lips met in the lightest of kisses and due to Aimee's weakness, she couldn't hold herself up for much longer so she slumped against his chest but she was unsatisfied with just a kiss. It was her Logan after all. So she began mouthing at his chest. Her lips parted and she pressed those open mouthed kiss to his the open skin on his chest. Distantly, she waited for the bristle of tiny chest hairs to tickle her face but it never did came.So she smiled up at "Logan" and muttered. "You shaved your chest hair without me?"But the man looking at her wasn't smiling, his lips were twisted in a scalding fury as his eyes moved over her flushed, oddly grinning face.Logan didn't deserve such an angel like this,' he thought. Logan didn't deserve anything good in life. As he looked at her, his eyes took in her cheeks which were beer red and her lips which were pulled in a pout, puckered like a rose flower.So fucking gorgeous. Heat stirred in his groin area but he wouldn't act
Chapter 16: Jumping out of the window Author's P.O.VAimee was taken back by the harshness of his voice and probably thought he was infuriated with her because of her indecent behavior towards him. She couldn't blame the guy. After she'd led him on the first time and then now…. Ugh. Guilt washed over her. She was so sorry and prayed Logan wouldn't find out. As she recalled her professor's silent threat to walk in, in a rush, she dressed back in her sopping clothes. Hesitantly, she ambled to the door, and pushed it open. When she came face to face with him, her heart jolted and she trembled, giving him an apologetic look. "I... I'm sorry, I was just not clear-headed. Please don't take the nonsense I said to heart. Please I'd appreciate if we could just forget all about this."No matter how eloquent she usually was, she fumbled through her words this time as her stomach threatened to be sick. It was so tight, pooling with nausea as she looked at the man in front of her.Blackwood rubbe
Chapter new: Author's P.O.V Miss Houston's voice was filled with jealousy, with a sense of "I will kill whoever she is." She had been at a party with her bosom friends but instantly left the venue, driving like a mad bat when she heard that the professor had brought a woman over. Aimee went rigid at the voice and goosebumps erupted over her skin as if she was doused with water from head to toe. Miss Houston? What was that woman doing here? Aside from what Sarah back at the University had told her today, it was quite obvious that the woman did not like her. If she knew that Aimee was "the mystery girl" staying here, life would be difficult for her in the future. There was no telling what Miss Houston would do to her! She couldn't dare to go to sleep as she jumped from the bed, throwing the covers to the floor. Although she couldn't make out their words clearly, her heart still jumped when Ms Houston's voice drew nearer. Her heart was thumping so hard, it was like a sledgehammer sl
