LUCIAN

At this point, I was being forced what I originally didn't want to.

Find out who the mole is.

There was no way I would know who told Golden Blade King that we were coming because basically everyone was there that night. All the guards, all the maid and the elders knew so how would I be able to single one person out?

“A test.” I looked at Kira as she stood over me while I thought.

“What did you say?”

“A test, Lucian. You can spread some silly rumor and then watch who leaves the pack. Before, we didn't know that there was a spy but now that we do, we'll be on the look out.”

That seemed like it would make sense. I should definitely try that.

“What should I say?”

“Let's do something outrageous. Let's say the prince has returned with some other kids and they're going to tell us what happened and even take us back to where they were being held.”

That made sense and sounded like it would work.

“Fine then, you can get on that. I don't know how you want to make it seem natural th

    EDEN I knew from the moment she came from the stairs that something was wrong. From the way she walked to the way she spoke to Roman, I could tell that something was different. Off. Then she looked at me as Roman walked away. Then I confirmed. “Why are you here?”She looked shocked that I had recognised her because her eyes widened.But she knew that there was no need to deny it. “Is it you or is it her?"“It’s me, she's having problems coming out. What are you doing here?" She seemed to relax when she figured out that it was me and she chuckled and fell back on the chair behind her. “So it's you. It's about time we had a discussion. Have a seat."“Don't act like we're friends all of a sudden. What are you doing in my house? And what are you doing in Quinn's body? Where is she?!” What the hell did she do with Quinn?“You might want to reduce your voice. We don't want any of the maids or guards hearing anything about this. Have a seat and then we can talk.” I let out a heavy

    THIRD PERSON POVHe left Alpha Dimitri's house in anger, storming back to the car and getting in. He wasn't exactly angry that the Alpha didn't take his daughter as a wife. He had been hoping for it too because he knew the Alpha had a wife already and no responsible man would marry two women just months apart. So he was grateful for that at least. But he was still mad about the fact that his daughter was pregnant. Nothing could change that. But another thing that wouldn't change was the fact that his daughter was going to be the other woman and that child would never be the heir. That was something he couldn't allow. He had a reputation to uphold and he wouldn't let this situation mess that up. Since Alpha Dimitri couldn't marry his daughter, then he had to do something he didn't want to. He didn't believe in abortion and he didn't ever think that he would ask his princess to do a thing like this but right now, he didn't have a choice. He couldn't let such a thing happen and me

    GAIAMy eyes slowly opened but the blinding lights shut them back again as if they were a cause and effect and I tried to make sense of everything around meI could not move, I could not ask for water to ease my dry throat, I could not tell the doctor that my head was splitting or that he should do everything in his power to save my baby, but the pain in my belly was still there. All I could do was lay there while I was being wheeled in. I felt life slipping away from me, the blood in my veins rushing back and forth from my heart. I was not sure what happened. One moment, I was holding a cup of my herbal tea, and the next, I was clutching my stomach sure to the piercing pain that was shooting through it. The air was knocked out of my lungs, so I couldn't call for help. I assumed it was labor pains because this was my first child. I was thrilled to have another family member after five years of marriage to my husband. Who wouldn't? Ever since witnessing the love between my parents

    GAIA“Madam please, you need to rest.”I grabbed the IV in my hand and was about to pull it out when the door opened. It was the doctor. “Please, Mrs Quieten, you need to relax.”My breathing was heavy now as I was trying to keep down the tears that were peeking in my eyes. “Doctor. Doctor, please tell me these men are lying. They're saying that something happened to my baby and I don't understand it. Why? What happened? I don't do drugs!"“But the drugs were found in your system. You were so high that even your baby was so high. She didn't have the immune system or the strength to handle that. It's enough to kill her. I just wanted to inform you that the police will be coming by soon for questions.”The police? So now I was a murderer? “Doctor, that won't be necessary.. walk with me please." Evan took the doctor and walked outside, leaving me there to soak in everything that I'd just heard. My baby was dead. Drugs were found in my system. The police were coming by for question

    GAIAAs soon as the car pulled into the house, I felt my hands and my feet grow cold and they shook as I stormed into his office. He was bent over some papers, his glasses resting lightly on his nose and he looked up at me with a frown on his face when I entered. “What madness is this?” Was the first thing he asked. Without answering, I flung the envelope on the table. “There. Sign those. If you hate me so much, just sign them and let me freaking go! Let me go!" He looked away from me and opened the envelope, bringing out the papers and looking at them. He laughed, pushing them to the side and taking off his glasses. “What is this supposed to be? You want to divorce me?”“Are you blind? Aren't they divorce papers? Sign them and let me go! You didn't have to go so far, Javon. You didn't have to kill my baby!”“What in the world are you talking about?"Now, he was acting like he didn't know what I was talking about. “I heard her on the phone.

    GAIA 5 years later We landed at the airport early that morning. I'd slept through the entire flight because I'd been working on a murder case all month and it had drained me completely. I was finally back in New York after all this time. It had taken me almost a year to get my life back on track after what happened. Bella had helped me get a job in her company and I'd worked there, trying to save money to study. After that, I left the city, hoping to make something of myself. It hadn't been easy, moving away to a country where I knew no one. Bella has been there for me at every step of the way. It hadn't been easy studying with a newborn baby but I'd done it and I'd succeeded. My baby boy was born very healthy and I was so happy to see him. It had been a home birth because I didn't want to risk having to find out about it. It was hard for me to leave, knowing that Ayrah was here but I asked Bella to help take care of her grave. She deserved the best. She called me the day Javo

    “Evan, who did you say this man was and what exactly did he want?” “Well, he wants a top lawyer to handle his company's legal affairs and also be his lawyer. Other details will be discussed in the meeting.”Didn't he have a lawyer for all that before? Why did he want me? Anyway, I'd turned down at least five job offers just yesterday. My price has risen. I'd only accepted this when I heard how much he was offering. These days, money is needed. I'd spend a lot trying to get this degree and become who I am. That should be enough compensation. I needed to give my son the best live possible and make sure that never suffered a bit. We stopped in front of the company and I looked out, not being able to see the top of the tall building from the car. “This is it? Who exactly are we seeing?” That question was answered by the name of the company that I saw. Quieten and Co. “Is this a joke, Evan? You brought me to him?"My breathing was rapid now. “No, it's not him. It's someone else.

    GAIA“So you said you had a meeting again today?” I nodded, stuffing pancakes into my mouth. I'd left the house very early this morning so I could drive over to the neighboring town to meet with some potential clients. Despite my new job at Quieten and Co, I was still a free lawyer, meaning that I'd told Mr Quinten that I was still going to handle other cases. He was fine with it or even if he wasn't, it didn't bother me. “Yes, and I have to be at the office by midday.”I glanced at my phone as the screen lit up. There was an hour left until then.“But taking a job offer with his brother? Don't you think that's too risky?”“I told you he's his stepbrother. It's not like they like each other anyways."Bella sighed and sat in front of me. “I don't care if it's the devil. They have ties with each other. You may just be the fool in this whole thing."Ouch. That hurt. But she was right. When I got home that day, I'd thought about it and it crossed my mind that maybe I should have thou

Tears gathered in my eyes and I wondered if I should go after her and ask her to explain herself. Why did she have to go that far just to get back at me? Why did she have to do that?

    The sun was coming down when Wayne came out of the building. He'd had a long day and he couldn't wait to get home and lie in his bed. He just wanted to rest after the events of the past week. “Mr Wayne!”“Mr Wayne! Look here! Do you have anything to say concerning the rumors?!” “Are you truly married?"“What is your wife like?” There was a swarm of reporters outside his building and any sleep that Wayne was feeling before was long gone. They were bombarding him with questions and his bodyguards had to come to his aid by pushing them away from him so they wouldn't hurt him. “One question at a time. Calm down.” He finally managed to calm them down and listen to them. “Mr Wayne, what do you have to say about the rumors that you're married?” Wayne sighed. He knew it was going to come out sooner or later. He just wished it would have happened on a day when he wasn't so tired. “I’m happy to assure you that they're all rumors. I'm still a bachelor and I haven't ever been married in

    LUCIANKira started working immediately on the information we had. Now, I knew that the only reason why River took Nathan was because he wanted his delusion of a family to be complete. Beneath the picture of River, Nathan had began drawing the picture of someone. The face wasn't complete, probably because he ran out of time but he wrote the word “spy” in very small letters. Kira was she knew who noticed it and showed it to me. I have such a smart boy. So now I know that he spy motion wasn't a goose chase. Nathan knows who the person is or else, he wont have written that. “The pictures have been circulated around the pack. Soon, we'll have news about their girl and who's child she is. In the mean time, more gifts arrived.”I'd spent the last few days, visiting all the kids that had been returned to their parents. Since I wasn't there for them when they were taken, the least I could do was to see them when they were returned. I knew if Eve was here, that's what she'd do. “Lucian,

    ROMANI didn't go anywhere today. I wanted to spend the day with my kids, just being with them and playing with them. School was back in session and it felt good that they came back home to me. Since it was just me for now, I didn't have a choice but to look after every aspect of their life even down to little details. Quinn says I should let the maids handle it but I can't. I can't leave my kids to other people to take care of them. I felt the responsibility to be there for them when they needed me. I didn't have anyone to take care of me. My father didn't exactly give two shits when it came to me and I didn't want a life like that for my kids. I wanted them to know that their father thought about them and loved them. My kids were the only reason I did everything I did, they were the reason I worked hard to be a better man.. I wanted to show them just how much I cared about them.

After I'd pulled her closer to me, I could feel her body temsedd and even though I told her to relax, I could still hear her rapid breathing.I'd quietly gotten out of bed so as not to wake her up and to disappear before she did. Just as I was done dressing up, there was a knock on the door and I cursed underneath my breath, wondering who the hell that could be and what they could want. Luckily, Ally didn't wake up and I rushed to the door to stop the person from knocking again. “What?!” I spat. It was a maid and she moved back a bit at my tone. “Good morning, Alpha. My apologies for the disturbance but there's someone here to see you."“At this time?” It wasn't even eight in the morning “Who the hell could it be?" “It’s Princess Violet.”What? Violet? After the warning I'd given her yesterday? She still had the guts to ahoe her face here? That woman had some guys. “Tell her that I'm busy. I can't see her righ
