GAIA“Your eyes are going to fall out if you keep looking out of the window.” I rolled my eyes and looked at Bella. “You’re not being very helpful. I'm just trying to make sure that there's no stranger or creep outside my house. Is that so bad?”“I think that's what the army Javon brought her are for. That's what Evan is here for. That's what the cameras are here for. Damn, there's almost a crusade at Juan's school and your company is for. You need to relax.”I picked a cookie from the plate she dropped on the sofa. “I know all that but it doesn't hurt to be extra careful. I mean, it's the least I could do.”“Being extra careful doesn't include waking up at night at the slightest sound to check if it's that man that has come to take you. It's going to be okay, G.”It's not going to be okay until they've caught him and put him the cell and I can make sure that he's never going to leave. That's when I'll have the peace that I need. “Change of topic. What happened between you and Ev

GAIAJavon helped us move out of Bella's house while she sat on the sofa and sulked. Up until last night, she still found it stupid that I wanted to leave when there was a crazed criminal out there waiting to take any of us. I'd told her times without numbers that she had nothing to worry about but she didn't listen. When he heard we were moving out from Juan who couldn't seem to control his mouth around his father, he opted to help us move. And I couldn't say no. I could use all the held I could get. I made sure to tell the real estate guys that no one just knew that I was the one who was staying here. Evan was even the one who had done all the signing and all that. “You know what's funny?” She gave me a side eye. “To me? Nothing.”“You haven't even bothered to ask me where my new house is.”She froze for a moment and then perked up. “That’s true. Where is it?” her excitement died almost immediately “What does it matter? It's going to be far away.”I grabbed her hand. “Come w

GAIAIf I thought I was paranoid before, I was more paranoid now. I stayed up all night, staring at the text message and wondering whether or not I should tell someone. I needed help and If I didn't get it, something might happen. As If that was not enough, another text entered the day after. This time around, it wasn't from the same person. But it didn't make it any better. I think everyone noticed that I wasn't doing very well and they asked. Bella asked but I told her that it was the stress and that I will be fine. Javon asked and i told him not to worry about me because now, he has other issues to worry about and Evan, Evan didn't ask yet. I was in my office that night going through files when he walked in. He just stood by the door without saying anything and I could see that his eyes were on me. “Speak Evan or would you rather stare at me?”“I’m sorry if my eyes make you uncomfortable but I have a question. I hope you don't mind me asking.”I finally looked at him. Evan b

JAVON “What did you say?”“Javon, you knew this would happen. It was only a matter of time before he found out and started making moves.”This guy is a bastard. “What exactly is his case? What does he want from her?”He sat down in the chair in front of me. “What do you think? He wants to cause trouble. He told her about his father and he wants her to investigate his death and you know what that means.”Of course, I knew what that meant. It meant trouble. “What’s she saying about this?”“Nothing but I can see that she's scared. She doesn't know I know but she doesn't sleep anymore. She stays up all night looking out of the window and at the security cameras. Juan hasn't gone to school in a week.”Damn, I knew something was wrong. I noticed the way she always spaced out and the way her mind was always far off but when I asked, she didn't give an answer. “He’s threatening to reveal the truth about you. She thinks he's talking about your marriage to her but we both know he's not. He

GAIAI should have listened to her. She told me about her fears, she told me that there was a chance that he would go after her but I didn't listen to her. I pushed her fears aside. I ran across the road to her house, hoping to see her there like I didn't just hear the phone call. I knew Javon was behind me but I didn't bother to look back. “Bella! Bella!”The house was empty and I ran upstairs to check every room but there was no one there. “He took her. He took her, Javon.”“Who? Who took her? Mark or Jacob?”The tears in my throat didn't let me say anything and my breathing was heavy as I tried to speak. “Jacob. He said he took her. He said he's going to kill her if I don't do what he says.”This is all my fault. I downplayed the possibility of him taking her. I just didn't think that he'd go that far. She wasn't involved in the case in any way and at most, I thought he'd come for me or for Juan. He placed his arm on my shoulder. “It’s okay. I'm going to find her. Go back ho

GAIAThere was no argument this time around. He didn't give me a chance to choose either. He helped put my things together while Evan got Juan's things. We sat in the car, in silence because I had nothing to say. My mind was solely fixed on Bella. “Did you find out anything? You were gone for a while.”Juan was still passed out on his lap. “I’m still working on it. I'll take care of it.” It was for the best. As much as I didn't want to go back to that house, if any of them came, it would be better for me to be close to him because I couldn't protect myself. “Does your mother know I'm coming over? I don't want her to flip out when she sees me.” He gave me a look. “It’s your house. You lived there before her so she can't say anything.”Even though that was true, I never did feel like the madam of the house .“It’s just for a while, Gaia. If you're uncomfortable, you can go back home.” I would never say it to him but I liked the fact that he asked me to go with him. If I had stay

GAIA I don't know what Javon did but Jacob sent me a text message. “You’re lucky. I got what I wanted. Seems like that bastard brother of mine really loves you.”An hour later, I got a call from a strange number and it was Bella. I left the house immediately with Evan and went to pick her up. Seeing her in tears, I equally broke down because it was all my fault. “I’m so sorry. I'm so sorry I didn't listen to you. I'm a bad friend. I should have listened to you when you said that he might take you.”I had her taken to the hospital for a complete check up and they gave her an IV just in case. The door opened and Javon walked in. “Sorry I'm late. I was in a meeting.”I'd even forgotten to call him with everything that has happened so I'm sure that Evan was the one who did. “How’s she doing?” “The doctor said that there's nothing wrong. She wasn't harmed in any way but they what her to wake up before they request to do a rape kit.”He turned to me sharply. “A rape kit?”“Yeah, I

GAIAI stayed in the room while the doctors and the nurses did their thing. I couldn't beat to leave her again and from the tears in her eyes, she didn't want me to leave either. “The results would be ready soon.” I gave the doctor a small nod and thanked him as he walked out of the room. “Hey.” I sat beside her and held her hand lightly “How are you? How do you feel?” She didn't say anything. She just stared at me like I could see her thoughts, rather ready her thoughts. I wish I could though, so she won't have to speak. There were bruises on her lips and I don't even want to know how they got there. “What is it? Talk to me, I can hear you.”“I'm sorry. I should have known better.” Her quiet voice said. Hearing that apology from her broke my heart and I had to turn my head away from her as the tears poured out of my eyes. “Don’t say that. Don't say that, please. I should be the one saying that I should have known better. You told me, you warned me that he will come for you bu

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

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

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

EVELYN I watched her as she walked away, not knowing what exactly to say. My head cleared and I just stood there, replaying her words in my head. Had I heard right? She was behind the attack. 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? If she wanted to kill me, she could have just come up to me and done it without having to put Nathan's life at risk. What if something had happened to him? What if Lucian hadn't come there in time and I had no place to go? Tears fell from my eyes and I slowly made my way upstairs to my room. I wanted to be alone for now, training could wait. If anyone should ask me why I was crying, I wouldn't know what to tell them so it was best that I just went to my room. As I climbed the stairs, I bumped into someone again. What the hell was with me and bumping into people today?Since my head was bent down as I didn't

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. As for Eden, I don't even know what to do about it. I didn't know what to say about her and I didn't

ALPHA DIMITRIShe had fallen asleep at some point during the night. 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
