"That was Beatrice talking, right?" she asked."Yep, I escaped because I was not in the mood for her now.""Yeah, me too; I am too happy to let her spoil my mood. But what was she talking about? So I know if I need to change anything.""Nope, she was talking about Luna not needing make-up. when she has makeup on her face.""She told me that once, and I pointed at her face and told her that she had make-up on too. but she refuted it and said that it was white powder and lipstick, and even though she was lying because she had a foundation that matched her skin, I was holding myself from telling her that lipstick was makeup too."I chuckled, "That must have given sucked."She rolled her eyes and said, "I do not know if you are making fun of me, but that it did suck.""Sorry, we said that we wouldn't let her spoil our mood, but we are. So let's get ready because our men and the whole pack will be starting soon in the hall."The pack will celebrate his birthday in the hall first, then clos
"Now, let us start with the game. I can't wait to know your dirty secrets," Summer said."Anyways, I will list the rules for anyone who has never played with us. First, you do not pick if you are daring or saying the truth; then the coin picks for you."My eyes widened. Okay, maybe I should not have joined this game, and looking at Hayden, I could tell that he had a smile on his face."For five thousand dollars, you can skip the person next to you that you are expected to question and ask another person a question, but you cannot dare the person. If you lie and the person has evidence then he gets to dare you, Now let us start.""So first, I will start," she said, tossing the coin, and it was the head, which was the truth.She frowned, and Winter started laughing."Willow that day back in college that Killian denied that you were not dating; are you dating him?" She asked.Everyone gasped. Lucien even pinched her. "Summer, she here with her mate. Why would you want her to talk about t
Ann Pov"When is the damned Alpha Finn going to come out?" I said in my mind because I would not dare call an Alpha damned in his pack.My head would be hanging on the spike if I said that, and with the fact that no one would avenge me because I sneaked out of the pack, not even Hayden or my son. Since they were engaging in their youthful foolery when I decided to sneak out,Finn Hallmark, also the Alpha of Snowflakes Pack and a good friend and business partner of Hayden and I, emerged from his chambers."Luna Ann, or should I say Luna Dowager now that Hayden is the Alpha, which brings your visit to my pack at night? Are you planning on giving me fake news again that will only benefit you like you did with Hayden's mother?" He said it with a smile.Cocky bastard, I hated doing business with him because he had a loud mouth, but his pack was the next biggest and strongest pack after Shadow Pack, and he commanded the kind of respect Hayden commanded. So he coul
Alex povI heard something fall, and then I was awake. I wondered where I was because the ceiling did not look as luxurious as ours, and I could smell water, which was not possible in our house. I touched the other side of the bed, and there was no one there. So I pushed up immediately and then looked around. The design of the whole house told me where I was. It had given out the fact that I was in our beach house.Then I remembered the party and remembered that Hayden had brought us here so we could f*ck. I looked at the clock, and it was a few minutes after six."Hayden, where are you?" I called, but no answer, but I did hear a little bit of noise outside.I gripped the bed stood up and went in search of him. I might as well find Pig Head before he goes around blaming himself for taking advantage of me or any other stupid things.I managed to find my clothes; Hayden had put them under the pillow alongside his shirt, maybe to straighten it.I wore my
Ann povI was just lying in bed and turning around when I heard the door open, thinking it was the servant coming to drop off my dinner, but you can imagine my surprise when it turned out to be Josiah."What are you doing here?""I missed you, he said, trying to grab my body, but I pushed him back."Excuse me, please do not touch me; I am not in the mood For any dick right now, this is a work in progress. So state why you are here and leave?""Excuse me, this body is mine; I am the one that put you in this position you are, and I can drag you back down, so do not make me angry."I started laughing because of all the bullshit I have had to deal with today, starting with. Finn Hallmark and then his fool too."Why are you here? Your brother is home. Aren't you the one who said that you cannot come to my bed anymore till he leaves? So why are you here in broad daylight when anyone can walk in? Have you lost your mind?"He grabbed my waist and said, "What do
It has been two days since the birthday birthday, and everyone has been on their way to their respective places. Summer had decided to stay for a bit instead of rushing off to her late mate's pack, much to Claire's delight because they were both crazy, so they got along well.Claire and I, alongside other servants, cleaned up everywhere, and set everything back to how it was before we used it. The hall and the house were back to being clean, and we stored the decorations for future use.Today, I was going to the hospital to try my hand at working as the receptionist, even though Hayden did not want that, but after much pleading and acting out yesterday, he gave me the option of Josh following me to make sure that I did not overwork myself and to phone him if I did."No."No." I disagreed. "The only reason I wanted to be a receptionist was that I wanted to actually work and not just sit down in some office and have someone stand behind me, watching all my movement.""There is nothing I
I took a step back, almost falling, but then I caught myself and screamed."Help, Josiah, help me," I said, then started running towards the front of the hospital. As if he was around, I saw him running towards me."Luna, what is the problem?"I pointed at the person who was clad in black and was running away. "He tried to grab me; go after me."He shook his head. "I can't; Hayden will have my head if I leave you unprotected, but I will mind linking the others to go after whoever it is.""I give you a command as your Luna. Go get that fool that almost made me fall," I shouted, but he did not answer. When I looked at him, I saw that he was mind-linking someone."Josiah, I will be inside the hospital. Just go after him," I said while shaking him, but he grabbed my hand and started to lead me in."Josiah, I will...""For god's sake, Luna, I am not leaving you; your mate will have my head. Now please let me finish linking him; staying too much in one's head is not fun."I shut up, still f
"Are you hungry? I could microwave you something really quick," I asked, still enveloped in his hands, but he shook his head."What do you want me to do then?" I questioned him because his face was still betraying no emotion. I tried to get out of our hug so I could look at his face, but he just held me in his hands while heading towards the bedroom. He stopped in front of our children's room, looked inside, then closed back to the door.He went inside, dropped me on the bed, and climbed on. He took my mouth in a kiss and I opened it for him immediately, his tongue stroking mine and his hands on my back massaging it.I slipped my hand into his hair, running my hand through it, while he devoured my mouth. His tongue slid to my throat, nipping and having me moan out his name, His hand roamed over my b*obs, teasing them with the dress still on, then pulling my nightgown up and running his hands on my curves."Hay...den," I moaned, but then I felt his hand on my pants, and he started rub
Hayden POVToday was the day of the general meeting. Since my return two days ago, I have spent it with my twins, organizing every piece of evidence that I had. Compiling the conversation between Abel and Ana, I could still see the look of horror on her face when I pushed Abel out of the car; she looked like she had seen a ghost.No one could escape, as I made sure the boundaries were guarded, and I confirmed that Peter was truly my uncle's son. I told my father about it this morning, and I had to hold him down from rushing to his brother's house.I also told Josh what his father had done and that Peter was his brother. He had been working with me for a long time, so he deserved that much respect.My twin's birthday was coming in a few months, and I could not wait to get all this over and start a new phase with my family."Ready," I said to Alex.She nodded. "More than ever."I grabbed her hand and then pressed the elevator. We had left the twins at home wit
"Good morning, soldiers," I said while standing in front of them."Good morning, Alpha," They greeted."Tomorrow, we will save our pack. This is one of the most important missions in our lives, so there is no room for mistakes everywhere. Do you understand?""Yes, alpha.""Good. What I want is your excellence amongst others. No mistakes. Anyone who leaks any information here will die in my hands in the worst way possible. Now let us start."Jim had told him to come to the house; it was near the water. He initially disagreed and gave him another location with the excuse that he could be walking into an ambush. Jim used the same excuse for him, telling him that he might decide to kill him and take every dollar in his account. "The location is the house in the forest. It is not afflicted to any of us, and although he thinks he is smart, we are smarter."I pointed at the hidden cameras that had picked up a picture of a middle-aged woman who came to look around, using detectors and everyt
Hayden pov After what we had last night, I had slept off but was woken up by the sound of my phone ringing. It was on the bed stand, but Alex was using my hand as a pillow, and I did not want to wake her up. I looked at the clock, and it was midnight. But then my phone started to ring again. She must have been disturbed by the noise because she turned and moved away from my hand.I tiptoed off the bed and grabbed my phone, then headed to the bathroom after looking around."This better be important, Jim?" I said immediately that I had picked it."Good evening, Alpha. I am calling because you said to call you and to never act on my command.""And?""The dealer messaged me. He says that he has something to do next week and decided to get the job done tomorrow, so I should get him money ready by tomorrow.""What did you tell him?""Nothing. He just sent me the message a few minutes ago. Also, there's a feature in my laptops that makes messages I have rea
Alex povWe arrived on our private plane to Paris. This was my first time in Paris, and I was so excited. It is going to be a fun experience for me. I brought out my phone, then found the article about Paris I had downloaded, because I wanted to have a better knowledge of where we were going and where we would be visiting after we had rested well.My interest was piqued when I saw a picture of the Eiffel Tower. We will do that.We were taken to our hotel room by a limousine.The hotel NH Paris Gare de l'Est was famous for its exquisite view and its transport convenience, and I will go see it too.The fact that it was closer to the Eiffel Tower, the train station, and the airport made it an exciting place for tourists and visitors.After we checked into one of the biggest hotels in Paris, which was owned by Hayden, We collected the key to our hotel room, while the baggage porters helped us carry our bags into our room.I did not waste time showering; he want
Josh povAs soon as Hayden left, I sat down with Lex, watching her rummage through the wardrobe.She had come to the kitchen, where I was lounging and waiting for them to finish cooking, and dragged me to her room."I need you to help me choose the perfect lingerie to seduce Hayden when he comes back.""Wouldn't Hayden kill me for looking at you?""He won't know unless you tell him, and what he does not know would not kill him. Now come with me."I followed her to the room, but all I wanted was to call Cecelia. I knew that she was in the Alpha's whatever, but I liked her.I remember how beautiful she looked from the back in the tub. She looked like a princess, so I pulled off my clothes and joined her in the tub."What are you doing?" She had asked me."Bathing, Isn't it obvious?" I asked."I thought you said that there was no reason for you to do that, as you will be leaving soon.""I changed my mind," I said, and then I started washing her hair for her."Okay,
Alex povI felt someone tapping me, and I groaned, then buried my face in the bed. It must already be time for us to leave, but I had stayed all night watching K-drama recommendations because I wanted to sleep more.It had started with Hayden bringing his laptop to bed when I said that I did not want to be alone in the room while he typed. He had agreed, but then the noise from his typing would not let me sleep."Can't you put down that laptop? I can't seem to sleep because of what you are typing." "I can't, but I can get out of bed; I will just be in the living room. You can call me if you need me."I shook my head, then placed my head on his chest. He likes to say that I have been needy these past few days.I had told him that since I almost died, I now knew what I was missing, and he started laughing.I stayed curled up at his side while he worked, but then I saw that it was disturbing him, just that he did not only tell me that he could not type comfor
Finn Hallmark povI had finished making a few calls in my study and learned that Donovan was not giving up and that he was still trying to finish up in the few days that they gave him. I did not know what he thought he was doing, but that bastard was starting to make me angry, and it looked like I would get rid of him."Is there a way that you guys could get him to leave the deal for me? You know how much I give you for everything that you do for me, right?""I know that Finn, but there is nothing that I have not tried. I sent you a picture of the deal too, and you could not find any clause that would make anyone take anything back. He was very thorough in making that deal like he knew that something like this would happen." I scoffed, "I don't mean through legal means; I mean, can't you get rid of him through any means?"The bastard at the other end of the line started laughing like I said something funny. He laughed for a while, and it started to irritate me, so I
When I opened my eyes, the room still felt dark, so that may mean that it was not morning yet. I felt sore in many places, and my head was killing me, but either way, I tried to touch his side of the bed and ask him to pull me up, but there was no one there. I looked at the side, which was a bit rumbled, which meant that he did sleep there but had woken up before I did.I managed to sit up and then looked at the clock. It was five o'clock in the morning, and I pushed myself to the edge of the bed even though my whole body protested against that movement. But I needed to get up and drain my bladder since I fainted from my orgasm and did not know everything that happened after that. I also needed to eat something because all that walking made me hungry, and I was too busy ogling Josh to ask for noodles yesterday, but now that all that was done, I needed to eat. I heard the sound of a plate falling somewhere, so that means that he was in his kitchen.Then came the whole problem, because
I grabbed the drink from his hand and took a sip from it to calm my insides. I had not examined what kind of tea, which is unlike me; it could have been poison and I would have drank it without looking, but it turned out sweet, so I looked at the remaining liquids at the bottom of the cup."What kind of tea is this? It's really sweet," I asked him."I don't know; my mom bought most of the things in my house, including this tea. She blended a lot of the things into the dried green tea, but I have forgotten what she mentioned."I tasted cinnamon on it," I said, and he shrugged."I did too, but as for the rest, I did not pay much attention," he said."Do you want to play a game?" He asked me."What is it? Truth or dare," I continued. "Do you want to dare me to pull my pants off?""It is not truth or dare, and if I wanted you to pull your pants off, I would not need to play a silly game. It's an Ouija box game where you have to do anything the alphabet on it says.""Is there another paper
