"Favorite jacket?'. Mia asked as she looked down at the dark woolen jacket she was forced into. She liked the jacket but it was heavy on her and made her move slowly. "Yeah, he nearly cut my head off when I tried to steal it one time" Lucas told her as he reached out, picked up his fork and started eating. Hannah, Adriana's head housekeeper stepped out. "Would you also like to be served?" Her eyes moved from Adrian to Mia. Mia's stomach grumbled. She was only able to eat a little after Adrian allowed her to leave the bed and that was hours ago, she was hungry. "Yes please" she gave a curt nod. Hannah turned to Adrian after getting Mia's response but he waved her off with a negative shake of his head. He ate enough at breakfast and was not hungry. Mia dug into her food, eating with relish immediately different dishes were placed before her. Adrian's eyes followed the movement, he watched as the fork disappeared into her mouth and appeared again. He wished it was s
They moved into the living room before Amelia arrived two hours later. Amelia was looking around the fortress that was Adrian's house with wide eyes as she was led inside. She tripped multiple times. She knew he moved with guards due to the fact that he was not only an alpha of one of the largest packs, he was a billionaire and mafia but his house was something else. Armed guards were everywhere and the house was hidden somewhere that it could not be found easily. She was even blindfolded halfway. "Please this way Miss", the guard who was showing her the way inside directed her. Amelia went still immediately she stepped inside the house and her wolf peeked up at attention at the delicious scent that hit her. "Mate" her wolf howled in her heas dancing around. A happy smile bloomed on Amelia's face when she realized what was happening. She just caught a whiff of her mate's scent. Her mate was in Adrian's house. She knew that her mate would have also picked up he
Adrian's phone rang some minutes later and he picked up when he saw that it was his beta calling. "Alpha, bad news" "Shoot". "One of our warehouses was bombed today in Florida. Only two survivors" " Fuck, fuck" Adrian cussed out. " Mr Lance?"Nicole was quiet on the other side for a while before heaving a deep sigh. "He didn't make it, he was the one who found the bomb just seconds before it exploded and he yelled for the rest to run". Adrian grabbed his forehead. He had specifically promised Mr Lance's son the last time he went back to his pack that his father would return back home soon, safely. And now Mr Lance's body was not even in one piece. He was sure that the body would have been destroyed since he was so close to the bomb. "Find me who did that shit! I want all of them in my torture room before this week runs out". Adrian said, his voice cold. Nicole shuddered at Adrian's word about taking the culprits to his torture room. " Yes Alpha". " What happened?".
After the man's words, the room went silent. The only thing that could be heard was the sounds of their breathing and the little noise that came from the lighter as Adrian lit up a cigarette. They were like that for some time, just smoking and trying to digest the new information. A new gang means new enemies or new business partners but this one was screaming enemies in bold capital letters. "A new organization huh?". Lucas finally decided to break the silence. He was the only one that was not smoking. He was playing around with the cigarette in between his fingers. "One that wants to take over. Great". Adrian was tapping his feet on the floor as he placed his elbows on the hand of the sofa, tilting sideways. "We need to get rid of them but it's not that simple. They are going about and trying to take over the smaller gangs, it's only a matter of time before they start attacking us". The man that explained everything for them when they first got in, Mr Amadeo spoke
Everything happened too fast for Mia. She was in a daze as she watched the stripper fall to the floor. The stripper was silent and surprised for a minute as she hit the ground. She brought her hand up to touch her face, her mouth wide open in disbelief and then she got her sense back. With a high pitched scream of "what the fuck?" The stripper struggled to her feet and tried to hit Amelia back. Amelia was faster than she was, she caught the stripper's hand and pushed her back to the ground. "Amelia stop". Mia told her as she grabbed her by the elbow trying to get her to leave the stripper. She pushed a seething Amelia behind her as she stared down at the stripper. Another woman who was also a stripper seemed to notice what was going on, she rushed over to help the fallen woman up, "Tina what happened?". Tina struggled to get up from the ground with the aid of her friend, Rita. "It's that man stealing bitch, she brought her friend and tried to beat me up". Tina shriek
They rode the elevator together in total silence. Amelia's eyes almost came out their sockets when she realized that they were going down not up. It widened even more when they stepped out of the elevator. She wrinkled her nose in distaste as the strong smell of cigarette, tobacco and other hard drugs hit her hard. She tried her possible best not to lean over and retch. There was a bar in the place and then a long line of corridors that led to different rooms that were soundproof. No one knew what violent or illegal activity was taking place inside. Nothing could be heard there except for the song playing on the speaker, it was not loud like that of the club they were coming from. Strippers were dancing on poles to the slow music and entertaining the men there. "Don't move an inch sweetheart and try not to get involved in another fight". There was warning in his voice as Adrian dipped his head to press a kiss on her hair. Mia said nothing in response but her body shi
Mia played with the black card in her hand as she walked out of the elevator and walked to the company's cafeteria. "You can get anything you want with this card sweetheart, you can withdraw any amount. There is no limit for withdraw". Adrian told her this morning in the car while handing her the card on their way to work. "I'm tired". Amelia groaned as she dropped onto the chair opposite Mia. Mia gave her a thin smile as she prepared her ears for Amelia's never-ending complaint. Even if Amelia was groaning, her eyes were shining brightly and she looked happy. "Do you know where Lucas lives? Does he visit Adrian all the time?". Amelia asked Mia cocked her head to the side as she chewed her bottom lip. She was preparing for Amelia to complain about her hangover and work, not this question that Amelie was asking her. She began to wonder what happened between Amelia and Lucas yesterday. "Why?" Amelia threw her hand wide, "because I want to know. I like him". She said
They went shopping the next day. All Mia had to do was tell Adrian and he gave a nod and told her to get good work clothes while shopping. She was surprised that he let her go so easily but she wisely kept her mouth shut. Amelia bought the things she needed while Mia bought some work clothes and thick sweaters and jackets because of the cold. Mia did not miss the way the woman at the counter looked at her twice when she brought the black card to pay and she did not miss the way the woman received it with trembling hands. It made her amused until she told Amelia who also asked to see the card. "Holy fuck". Amelia was looking at the black car in total astonishment, " where did you get it?" Now Mia's curiosity was piqued, " from Adrian. Why?". Amelia shook her head as she returned the card back, almost reluctantly. "Nothing". "Is there anything wrong with the card?". Mia asked with furrowed brows as she took back the card to tuck it into her pocket. "Maybe you sho
