Satisfaction and triumph flared within Mia, especially when she saw the way Rose's hand curled around her fork until her knuckles turned white.Mia continued to eat like nothing that was happening was any of her business. She could feel Poppy's eyes and Rose's eyes on her. She was waiting for what Rose would say; ask her to leave the room or swallow her bitterness and move to stay in a guest room.“ Keep my things in a guest room until Adrien returns. He would solve this”. Rose told Poppy with her eyes still on Mia, who was pretending like everything that was happening had nothing to do with her. But she could see the tiny smile on Mia's lips. It made her chest fill with anger. She wanted to lash out. She was not even sure what Adrian would say when he got back and met her here. He has never cared before, but no woman has ever lived with him before. By the way, he behaved with her in his office the other day, she was not so confident, but she won't go down without a fight. He might be
" I'm sorry about my outburst the other night”. Mia immediately apologized when they got into his car. She noticed that his security had doubled and in one part of her mind, she knew that it was because of her.Adrian was surprised. He had not expected her to apologize. He had been angry that night because of what she said, but after thinking about it the whole night, he finally understood where she was coming from. She had done literally everything she could to get back her child, so she won't think twice about spying on Gideon. He rubbed her head and brought her close to his chest," it's okay, sweetheart. I understand why you said that, but I just want you to know that I would do everything I can to help you get your baby back. But I don't want you to get in trouble. If you die, then who will take care of your baby?”.Mia sighed as she listened to his slow but steady heartbeat under her ear. She felt her heart melting at his promise to help her get Dustin back. Even if she did no
"I already said it the last time that we are not going with this idea. Are you trying to piss me off, Bradford?” Adrian asked in a cold tone when Amanda was done explaining the plan. Henry tried his best to maintain eye contact with Adrian but failed. He could feel a heavy pressure in the air and the place was cold, like they were in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Henry cleared his throat before explaining, “we stayed up all night thinking of better solutions, but this is the best we could come up with and Amanda here is willing to go in with Mia”. Adrian held himself back from banging his hand on the table in their middle. “Well, your best solution is not working. Are you trying to push all the work on the ladies while you take the glory at the end?”. Adrian asked with narrowed eyes. Henry squirmed uncomfortably under Adrian's gaze. Adrian had seen through him, and he was right, he knew that the ladies could lose their lives if Gideon was to suspect a thing. But if the plan
“Did he lay his hands on you, pretty one?”. Mia was squirming uncomfortably under Gideon's wandering hands. He was touching her all over and she felt disgusted. All she wanted to do was shove him off, but her hands were still bound together behind her. He has not loosened her. "Don't worry, you are safe now. I won't allow him to come close to you. You know that I will always rescue you no matter what”. I can be safe anywhere in the world apart from where you are, Mia thought silently. He was the only person she needed to be rescued from. She bit her tongue as she willed herself to say nothing and do nothing as he kept touching her everywhere. She felt tears pricked at the back of her eyes as the disgust she felt. She never felt like this when Adrian was touching her. She would give anything to be in his arms, but she won't know peace until Dustin was also safe. For now, she would endure. Mia's shoulder sagged in relief when, after touching her to his heart content, he finally st
Satisfaction curled in the pit of Mia's stomach when Gideon turned to Marianna and Marianna gasped in fright. "What the hell did you do?”. Gideon screamed in anger at Marianna, causing her to flinch back in fear. "The make-up is good. She is just trying to get me in trouble. I got all this make-up from the store and I have used it on other girls. I…”. Marianna rushed to explain. "You stupid bitch, she already agreed to go to the party. You are trying to ruin her pretty face”. Gideon threw a leg and kicked Marianna to the ground. Marianna fell with a plop, and tears filled her eyes at the pain that spread through her body. “I did not try to destroy her face”. She cried. This was not what she planned. She had told Gideon that Mia was refusing to do her make-up because she did not want to attend the party. She also reported that Mia tried to stab her. "You are still not apologizing, you stupid slut”. Gideon kicked her again. " Owww, I am sorry”. Marianna cried. "Get me Hannah”
All she wanted to do now was to drink until she passed out. She could not believe it. Adrian had chased her out of his house without even so much as a second thought, all because of a woman. A slutty woman at that. A whore who has slept with so many men, but Adrian had chosen that whore over her. It would have been laughable if she was not the one caught up in this situation. He had been so angry when he came back and met her in his house. His veins were bulging out as he asked her why she was in his house and if she met Mia. It was almost as if he were scared of her hurting Mia or saying something that would make the other woman leave him. Adrian was correct. She had not done anything that night, but she would do something soon. Something that would separate Mia from Adrian, and she just knew the person that would help her out. An evil smile graced her lips as she remembered her well-thought-out plan. Her eyes filtered through the dimly lit club where she was. She was here to cel
“We might need her twin sister in the future. Ask someone to keep an eye on her”. After she calmed down, Rose told Harper as she watched Malia with a deep and penetrating gaze. "Alright". "Do we still have to attend this part if Adrian has given Mia back to Gideon's? Shouldn't we be looking for ways to get back together with Adrian? I don't trust Madeline one bit". Mia told Harper. "We can't trust that Adrian doesn't have any hidden motive for returning Mia back to Gideon. With the way he has reacted to you twice and from what Gideon said about Mia having a child with him, do you think Adrian would really return her back? What if they are looking for a way to get her son?". Harper asked Rose Rose mulled over Harper's words for a while before she nodded, "true. So we would be attending this party to find a way to talk to Gideon and strike a good deal with him. Make him know that he stands a chance of losing Mia and his son if he wasn't careful of Adrian. If he keeps Mia a
Before unlocking this chapter, it's advisable to go and re-read the previous chapter. There was a mistake and it was edited out. Apologies from the author.***Gideon kept bellowing at his men as he pushed Mia inside the car and got in along with her. His second in command, Fabrizio, jumped into the front seat along with the driver who immediately started the car. Mai kept staring outside as the car turned away and left with others of Gideon's men in another car following them. Something big must have happened. "What the fuck just happened there? What the fuck is it about the FBI coming here? How did they know about this party?”. Gideon bellowed as he started to hit the back of Fabrizio's car seat. "I don't know”. Fabrizio yelled in frustration as he used his hands to run his face and scatter his hair, “someone must have tipped them off”. "I always do this party at different times because of them. I think it's that bastard, and what the fuck is it about my ship sinking? How would

TWENTY FIVE YEARS LATER “Where is your brother?” Mia asked her second son when he came downstairs for breakfast without his brother. It was a rare case because they did everything together as twins. Though most times, they were always at each other's throats. “I don't know”. Eden replied as he dropped onto his chair beside Mia. Mia raised a brow at him, “What do you mean by that?” When he did not reply again, Adrian growled at him from where he was sitting at the head of the table, ”When your mother is talking to you, you answer”. Eden cocked his head at his father, ” he was making a call to whoever when I left the room”. Mia was about to go up to call her youngest baby when he came down with Dustin in tow. "Morning dad,. morning Mom" Ethan greeted before sitting opposite his brother. “Morning dad, morning Mom”. Dustin greeted as he bent to kiss Mia on her cheeks and turned to leave. Mia immediately grabbed his hand to stop him, “where are you going to? You have not had bre
Lucas gasped in shock as a heavy pain consumed his body from his neck down to his toes, but then, the pain turned into hot pleasure, and he felt himself getting hard even when he just came down from a powerful orgasm.As much as he wanted to spread Amelia's legs and enter her again, that was not what was on his mind. He knew what was happening right now. Amelia just sank her fangs into his neck to mark him. He could feel something snap in his head. He felt something flowing through his veins and felt a lot closer to her than before Lucas felt his body vibrate as she took her fangs off and licked his neck. He tried to move his head up so that he could see her face, but her hold on his neck was tight. He could not move.Luac decided to relax against her until she was ready to let him go. He could feel her heart pounding loudly against his chest, and he knew that she was scared. Amelia was a werewolf and fucking Adrian did not tell him. He could feel different emotions that didn't belong
Amelia rolled her eyes at her television before reaching into her bowl of popcorn to grab a handful and stuff it into her mouth. The male lead and female lead in the film were so boring, she wondered why everyone was screaming about how interesting the film was. They both had no chemistry, or maybe she was the problem, not the film. Amelia's mind was clouded with different thoughts. She would be twenty-six soon, and she was yet to get her mate to notice her. Her mother called her yesterday to tell her that her cousin sister had found her mate who was from a rich family, though his family had no special rank in the werewolf world. Her cousin had also called her to brag. She had not told anyone about finding her mate. She wanted to see if she could get her mate by herself. She has gone out with Lucas two times again on a date; she would like to think so, but nothing special has happened between them. It only served to show her that he was not interested in her. She was already thinki
“Not so fast, Sissy”. Owen called as he ran to catch up with Nicole. Nicole increased his footsteps, “stop following me”. He growled over his shoulders before getting into his car.Owen quickly got into the front passenger seat before Nicole could start the car and drive off. "What the fuck do you want now?" Nicole glared at Owen as he turned the key in the ignition. Owen faced him with a smirk playing around his lips, “You brought me here, remember?”. Nicole slammed his mouth shut and started the car. Owen quickly put in his seat belt when Nicole increased speed. "Where the fuck are you going?" Owen asked. "Taking you back to the underground base where you crawled out of". Nicole snapped. " Can you slow down?" Owen asked as Nicole turned onto a deserted road and began to go down the hills so fast, “we are fucking going to die”. "Fuck off”. Nicole snapped. " I would rather fuck you”.At Owen's word, Nicole felt his blood freeze and the car swerved dangerously to the side th
“My daughter can't be in the prison alpha. Please, I beg you, you have to help me”. Rose's father, John, begged Adrian.Adrian drummed his fingers on the table between him and John, “I have been the one blocking you from bailing her. She has already received her sentence, so there is no going back”. John looked shocked at Adrian's words, “What do you mean by this alpha? My daughter is a first time offender. She is also part of your pack and most importantly, she is your girlfriend”. " Was my mistress”. Adrian corrected. He has not asked Mia out, but he saw Mia as his girlfriend more than the way he saw Rose in the past. "She is your girlfriend and is supposed to be your Luna”. John repeated, he did not like the way Adrian was calling his daughter his mistress. "I never agreed to make her my Luna or said anything about it". " But everyone thought that….". " You made everyone think that I would be taking your daughter as my Luna". " You never disagreed and when you starte
Mia held Dustin's hand as she stood outside and watched the car that was bringing Amelia get closer and closer. Her palms were sweaty and she was nervous. She had already rehearsed what she would tell Amelia about her instant baby. If Amelia was not important to her, she would never have explained how her baby came about, but Amelia was important. Adrian had left the house. He told her that he was stepping out for a bit so she and Dustin had the house to themselves until his return. Immediately the black car was parked in front, Amelia opened the door without waiting for anyone's help and raced towards Mia. "Mia,” Amelia yelled as she threw her hands around Mia and the both of them hugged each other, “You disappeared again, but I am not going to hold it against you because it was only for two or three days”. " How have you been?”. Mia asked her. She could see that Amelia looked happy, but the happiness was not only about seeing Mia after talking on the phone for weeks. Amelia was
It's been two weeks since everything happened and the dust has settled, but not Adrian's heart or wolf. It's been two weeks since he touched his woman, two weeks since she looked at him or paid him any attention. Another man seems to have snatched her away. Another man he helped her find. Adrian peered down at the little man who was staring up at him with watery gray eyes that looked exactly like his mother's. If not for the fact that this little man looked like his mate, Adrian would have picked him up and chucked him through the window now that he had the opportunity. Adrian cocked his head to the side and his eyes flashed when the little man also cocked his head to the side as if imitating him. He has not been able to have quality time with Mia because he has been busy working with the government to conclude Gideon's case and also taking care of Rose. Typically, Rose has not raised a hand against Mia, but Adrian knew that she would and that was why he got Harper, who Rose truste
“Imelda, I need my shots. I forgot to take my pills. The bastard released inside me”. Marianna grumbled as she pushed open Imelda's room door and walked in. She was wearing only a pant and a bra and all her lush curves were spilling out and were on display. "Imedal?”. Marianna did not notice Amanda that was standing at the door, she only saw Imelda that was sprawled on the floor naked. She rushed up to Imelda to feel her pulse. Amanda was about to make a move and knock Marianna out, but Mia quickly jumped out and yelled at Amanda to stop. "She knows where my son is”. Mia said. Marianna jumped and whirled around to face them, “What did you do to Imelda and who are you?”. She eyed Amanda. " Where is Dustin?”. Mai ignored her question. " He is having fun without his mother”. Marianna answered sarcastically, “Who are you?”. She asked Amanda again. She knew all the girls, and she had not seen Amanda before. Gideon went to bring the new batch of girls, and he hasn't returned. If
