I couldn't help but feel a surge of anticipation as I asked him, "Where are they right now, Levi?"Levi's gaze met mine, his eyes filled with unwavering trust. "They are waiting for you in my office," he replied, his voice calm and reassuring. "I've made sure they understand the importance of this investigation."A wave of gratitude washed over me, appreciating the trust Levi placed in my abilities. With a nod of acknowledgement, I expressed my readiness. "Let's head there now," I suggested, a touch of determination in my voice. "We have important work to do."Levi and I walked side by side, our strides matching the gravity of the situation. The hallways of the pack house seemed to whisper with anticipation, acknowledging the weight of the moment. As we approached his office, I could feel a surge of energy building within me, propelling me forward.Levi opened the door to his office, revealing a space that exuded authority and command. It was a room filled with wisdom, adorned with me
“So… what now, Jasmine? What do we do about your alleged suspicions about the traitor?” Jason asked, standing up with his hands placed on the desk, with his eyes staring intently into mine, waiting for my response.I took a deep breath, steadying my thoughts before responding."We may have hit a roadblock," I began, my voice filled with a mix of resolve and uncertainty. "But I refuse to believe that our suspicions were unfounded. There is a traitor among us, and we will find them."Levi nodded, his expression mirroring my determination. "We can't afford to let our guard down," he added, his voice laced with conviction. "We need to remain vigilant and continue our investigation."I looked around the room, meeting the gaze of each pack member present. Their trust and loyalty were palpable, their commitment to our cause unwavering. I felt a surge of gratitude for their unwavering support."We will leave no stone unturned," I declared, my voice carrying a note of certainty. "We will dig d
Levi's gaze swept over the room, his eyes flickering with surprise as he absorbed the subtle changes. He turned to me, curiosity shining in his eyes. "Your room looks quite different from the way I last saw it, early this morning," he remarked, his tone laced with intrigue.I couldn't help but smile at his observation, a hint of mischief dancing in my eyes. "Oh, I kind of did a little bit of cleaning and decorating," I confessed, gesturing to the tasteful arrangement of trinkets and artwork adorning the room. "I found some things in my drawer and thought they would bring a touch of character to the space. It seems a woman was once an occupant of this room."A subtle change rippled across Levi's features, his expression growing pensive. It was as if my words had unearthed something long forgotten, a memory buried deep within his psyche. His eyes clouded momentarily, his focus shifting to a distant point beyond the room.For a fleeting moment, silence filled the air, thick with unspoken
Our eyes locked, and I could see the flicker of emotions dancing within his gaze. He took a moment to process my words, his face softening with a mixture of adoration and amusement."Alright," he finally replied, a playful glint in his eyes. "I'd let you protect me too. But have in mind, I'll protect you more than you do me. Okay?"His protective tone elicited a chuckle from deep within me. The atmosphere had shifted from the weight of his sister's memory to a lighthearted exchange of promises. I closed the distance between us, a mischievous smile playing on my lips. "Okay, my Protective Alpha," I whispered, savoring the sweet familiarity of our banter.Without hesitation, our lips met in a tender yet passionate kiss. It was a moment of reassurance, a physical manifestation of the love and devotion we shared. In that intimate embrace, time seemed to stand still, allowing us to revel in the depth of our connection.As our lips parted, a subtle smile danced upon Levi's face, his eyes sp
Levi, his presence a steady anchor by my side, nodded in understanding. As we entered the abandoned house, a chilling mix of scents filled the air—blood and wolf fur, a haunting reminder of the violence that had occurred within these walls. I drew a steadying breath, reminding myself of the task at hand.Navigating through the remnants of the living room, we carefully made our way towards the stairs. Each step creaked under our weight, the sound echoing through the desolate space. The hushed whispers of the past seemed to reverberate in the shadows, adding an eerie backdrop to our determined journey.Reaching the top of the stairs, we turned towards my father's room. The door stood slightly ajar, a silent invitation to uncover the secrets held within. With a mixture of anticipation and trepidation, we entered the room, allowing the memories to wash over us.As my gaze fell upon the disheveled furniture and torn curtains, Levi's voice broke the silence. "Jasmine, what exactly are we lo
Levi's hand found mine, his touch providing a comforting anchor amidst the whirlwind of emotions that engulfed me. His reassuring words washed over me like a soothing balm, offering a sense of security and unity. "Jasmine, I know this is a lot to process," he spoke, his voice tender with empathy. "But remember, we're in this together. We'll uncover the truth, no matter how difficult it may be."I took a deep breath, finding solace in his presence and the unwavering support he offered. "I know," I replied, my voice tinged with uncertainty. "But right now, it all feels like a lie to me. I don't even know where to begin."Levi pulled me close into a warm embrace, his arms encircling me with a sense of protection. "I understand how you feel," he murmured softly, his voice a soothing lull amidst the chaos in my mind. "Feeling lost and left in the dark can be overwhelming, but don't let it consume you. Instead, let's channel that anger and frustration into searching for clues. We'll find the
Levi nodded, his eyes reflecting both encouragement and curiosity. "It's a good shot," he said, his voice calm and reassuring. "Go ahead, give it a try."Taking a deep breath, I turned the dial to 3-2-4, my heart beating faster with each movement. The moment of truth had arrived, and I waited anxiously for the safe's response.As I input the combination, a brief moment of anticipation filled the air. Five seconds felt like an eternity as the safe processed the digits. Then, with a soft click, the safe signalled that the combination was incorrect.A sense of letdown washed over me, and I sighed softly. "I thought it might work," I admitted, my voice tinged with disappointment.Levi placed a comforting hand on my shoulder, his touch offering solace amidst the momentary setback. "It's okay," he said, his voice gentle. "We can try another combination. Let's think of something else that might be significant to your father."His supportive words lifted my spirits, and I pondered for a momen
As I settled into the plush leather seat of Levi's Mercedes, the comforting purr of the engine surrounded us as he pulled away from my neighborhood. The city lights started to twinkle as the sky gradually darkened, and the cool breeze seeped through the open windows, adding a refreshing touch to the evening air.Levi glanced at me, a reassuring smile on his face. "You know, we can go wherever you feel comfortable," he said. "But if you need some suggestions, there's this lovely little café downtown where we can sit, chat, and you can read and analyse the contents ofyour father’s journal."I considered his offer but hesitated, my mind still preoccupied with thoughts of my dad. "Actually, Levi, I think I'd really like to visit the city hospital," I said softly. "I want to see how my dad is doing. It's been a while, and I'm getting worried."Levi nodded understandingly, his eyes locked on the road ahead. "I get it, and I'll take you there, but just hear me out. The red fang pack members
