Zeus had spent the last twelve years of his life as a substitute for a powerful man, Damon, living a false life of wealth, all in exchange for money. What he hadn’t anticipated that the identity he had assumed would tie him to the most dangerous man of all. Odin Romano. “I am your god, and I am your devil here, Damon.” When Odin’s sister took her own life, she left a note with Damon’s name on it. Odin who was known to exhume graves and crush whatever remained would never let his sister’s “killer” go free. Soon, Zeus found himself kidnapped by a deadly handsome man. “Who… who are you?” Zeus’s face turned white when his eyes met with animalistic yet sexy brown eyes that could not possibly belong to a human. The man tilted his chin up not with his fingers but with his claws, his hot breath brushing against Zeus’ lips, “Call me Alpha.” Zeus was trapped, accused of a crime he didn’t commit, yet trying to convince Odin seemed impossible. At every turn, Odin was prepared to turn Zeus’ life into a living hell. Escape felt impossible, and, against all odds, the allure of his enemy grew more irresistible. Until ever so slowly Zeus becomes Odin’s obsession. “What the hell do you want from me now? Haven’t you had enough of your revenge already? Haven’t I paid enough? Let me go now. My fiance is waiting for me!” Zeus glared at his kidnapper who was pinning him down to his bed. “Your fiance?” Odin chuckled a dark smile tugging at his lips. “Tell her to rest. Your husband is back.” Falling in love with the enemy was unforgivable, but would their hearts follow the rules?
Voir plusZEUSBefore I could react, the werewolf grabbed my collar, yanking me closer. “Don’t be cocky just because you’re with Alpha Romano! Meddling in our business will get you killed.”Jay was about to intervene, but before he could, I slammed my forehead into the man’s nose with all my strength. He howled in pain, stumbling back with blood pouring from his nose.I smirked. “You know who I’m with, yet you still dare to underestimate me?”The werewolf’s fury turned into hesitation.I turned to the woman, helping her to her feet. “Whatever twisted business you’re involved in, I won’t let you kill this baby,” I declared.
ZEUSBy late morning, we had driven out of Romano territory. The journey was long, yet thrilling, especially when Odin stopped by a cave he had discovered while hunting with his father at the age of nine. He even taught me how to catch a fish with my bare hands! It required a special skill and technique, and I could tell this man could survive in the wild without any modern facilities.Before we left home, I had packed some sandwiches. We ate them inside the cave, laughing and chatting about random things before continuing our journey.As we drove, curiosity got the better of me. “By the way, why are you taking me with you? Am I even allowed to be there?”Odin glanced at me with a smirk. “I was afraid you’d get homesick, so I thought about bringing you al
ZEUSIt had been three days, and still no message from Gary. I stood under the shower, lost in thought. Where had things gone wrong? Uncertainty gnawed at me, making it impossible to stay calm. I had to find a way to contact him.Wearing a bathrobe, I stepped out of the bathroom, only to find Cade entering the bedroom at the same time.“Alpha…” he started but trailed off when he realized Odin wasn’t here.What caught my attention, though, was the envelope in his hand, the one he quickly shoved into his pocket, almost as if he were hiding it. What was that about?“It seems the Alpha isn’t here,” he said awkwardly.I nodded, noticing how he struggled to ad
ZEUS“I…I just came to clean the room,” I blurted, stepping back from the desk. “I swear I didn’t touch…”Before I could finish, Odin moved. He charged toward me. I braced myself for his anger. For an accusation. For a punishment.Instead, he pulled me into his arms.Tightly.Like he was afraid to let go.I froze. My heart pounded against my ribs and my breath caught in my throat.“O-Odin…” I murmured, confused. “What happened?”He didn’t answer right away. Instead, he held me tighter. Then, out of nowhere he asked.
ODINLoosening my tie, I stretched my neck as I stepped into my office. The entire day had been spent outside the territory at an important Alpha meeting. I had intended to return earlier, but the endless reminiscing of old wolves, my father’s friends had kept me longer than planned. Their talk of the past only grated on my nerves. I hated recalling those old days.Sinking into my chair, I closed my eyes for a moment, allowing the quiet to settle.Then, a familiar and intoxicating scent filled the air.Damon’s cooking.Opening my eyes, I spotted a tiffin on my desk. My mood instantly lifted as I flipped it open, revealing warm, perfectly prepared fri
ZEUSThe next morning, the first thing I did upon waking was check my phone. Still no message.Odin had been caught up in urgent matters last night and hadn’t returned after dealing with Lex. But this… this was something else entirely. The speed post should have reached Gary by now. So why hadn’t he messaged me after reading the letter?It was already the first day of the new month. Had he not received the money? A gnawing sense of unease curled in my chest, spreading like wildfire.What exactly was going on?A bad feeling settled deep in my gut.Unbeknownst to me, Susan was making her way down a narrow alley, humming to herself as she approached the house. A cigarette dangled
ZEUSI followed Odin out.Stepping outside, my gaze instinctively went to Cade, standing at the stairs with a composed expression. But it was Lex and Ekim, standing farther away, who immediately drew my attention. Their faces were pale with fear as Odin charged toward them, radiating a deadly fury.“What is going on here?” I demanded, glancing at Cade. He averted his eyes, refusing to meet my gaze."Alpha… I can explain!” Lex’s desperate pleas echoed through the tense air. “Please!" He stumbled backward, terror etched into every movement.Something was wrong. Danger thrummed in the atmosphere. My instincts screamed at me to stop this before it escalated."Odin
ODINGoing through the pending documents related to the pack and my business, I found myself looking forward to Damon's arrival. It was already past lunchtime, and he had yet to bring me the usual lunch tiffin.“It seems he is still pouting,” Kin stated.I chuckled, “Yeah.”A knock on the door broke my focus. Cade stepped in, holding an envelope. “Alpha, this letter has come for you.”“A letter?” I took it from him and unfolded it. As soon as I saw the university's name printed at the top, my good mood evaporated.Cade, already aware of the contents, spoke carefully. “Alpha, the university president himself, has sent this invitation for
DAMONThe air in the boardroom was thick with tension, every second grated on my nerves. My patience was already hanging on by a thread when Victor entered the room with a measured, patient expression."Mr. Damon. It's about him…"The calm façade I’d barely managed to maintain finally shattered. I stood abruptly, my voice cutting through the room like a blade. "We’re taking a ten-minute break."I strode out, the sound of my footsteps sharp against the marble floor. Victor was on my heels, his voice urgent."We found a photo in the CCTV footage from an old shop," he explained breathlessly. "The image is blurry, but the person passing by in the footage looks like Damon."He plac
*Zeus*Pain.That’s all I felt as I came to, my head pounding like it had been split open. A dull ache throbbed, warm and cold all at once, and I realized blood—both dry and fresh—was smeared across my forehead. I shifted, wincing as my eyes fought to open, each blink a struggle against the sticky darkness. For a moment, all I could see was black, blinding black, then a sickly blur that forced my eyes shut again.After a second, I braced myself, sucking in a shallow breath as I tried again. This time, my vision cleared just enough to show a haze of shadows, and I got the sense that I wasn’t alone. But it wasn’t because anyone else was here; no, it was more the way the darkness closed in around me. Pressing down. Suffocating.A chill spread through me as I felt the hard surface under my back. Cold and hard. Stone? Maybe hard packed dirt. I couldn’t tell. My whole body screamed as I pushed myself upright, every muscle in me stiff and aching, like I’d been crushed under something heavy. ...
