Calhoun's POV

The way things happened on the yacht is enough to leave me perplexed.

One. Kristen shifted and knocked off my glass of wine, claiming it was poisoned. Her eyes were red, her body trembled as if she caught a cold. And then she dropped the bad news about Layla's death.

Alpha Gregory tensed, before running to the restroom to see if it was indeed true.

Kristen had an ill-judged jump into the sea and hurt herself, she didn't even answer to me when I called out to her. She swam as if she saw something no one else could see.

Just as I made to go after her, our undercover enemies shifted and attacked us. It turns out they've planned this beforehand. Killing Alpha Gregory's Luna, and hiding his last son.

Worst of all, one of the engines got blown up and split the yacht into halves.

We were able to kill some of our enemies and the remaining who are being held captive are taken into smaller boats for torture when they reach land.

    Kristen's POVToday is Luna Layla's funeral, exactly a week after she was murdered on the yacht. Even though I have a lot going on at school, I still squeezed out time from my busy schedule to attend, since it's a Tuesday. I haven't spoken to Mom or even Calhoun since my near-drowning experience. After that terrible evening, I woke up and found myself at my apartment with my friends. They stayed with me until I was able to feel whole again. I can't recall how I was saved but they said it was Calhoun who rescued me from drowning. I never saw Ben in class because he was at home with his father and younger brother, mourning their wife and mother. Right now, I am parked in front of their estate, trying to recollect myself as much as I can because I know I'll see Mom today…and Calhoun.After alighting from the car, I fumble with my hands because it's cold out here. Several cars are already driving into the estate, and a few people are walking on foot. Dressed completely in depressing bl

Calhoun speaks up finally but he ends up getting interrupted by me."Thank you for saving me.." He cuts me short with a raise of his hand."I'm divorcing your mother." He drops this bombshell."Wait, what!?" My parts in horror."It's something I should've done a long time ago, our marriage isn't working out," Calhoun thins his lips after making this known to me."I don't think that's any of my business," deciding I won't stay and listen to any of his rambles, I turn my back to him to leave.Calhoun grips my ponytail and pulls me back through his hold on
