'It's easy to like you, and i don't want to ' he confessed. Anyone would be flattered by what he just confessed. So did Riley. She was under the impression that he disliked her but marked her as his mate out of pity. But his confession made her feel a little better. Some of the burdens she has been carrying have been removed from her heart by his words. "Oh.." she said lamely. Carter chuckled. "I never spoke so many words in one breath in my entire life. But today i confessed my secrets to you, and all you have to say is ' Oh?" he teased her. Riley smiled at his words. "I don't know what to say to this" she confessed truthfully. Carter couldn't help but admire her honesty. She is not giving him empty words or talking trash just because she has to. "It's alright. You stopped crying. It is enough for now" he gave her a way out. Their relationship is not romantic by any means. They quarreled, they blamed each other and they even confessed that they will not acknowledge their bo
Riley is sleeping. Carter carried her back to their quarters and gently laid her down on the bed. He covered her with a blanket, as she only wore his shirt. After picking up another shirt, before leaving the quarters and went straight into the alpha's office, which belongs to him now. By the time he reached, Ajax and Justin are already waiting for him there."Good evening Alpha" they greeted Carter.Carter sat behind his desk and motioned the other two to sit."Good evening, did you find anyone who could help us?" he came straight to the point.Ajax opened a black folder that he was carrying all along and pulled an A4-sized paper out of it before sliding the paper towards his Alpha."His name is Tim, he can help us" Ajax shared.Carter looked at the details of the teenager whom Ajax found to help them."He looks young, and he is a human. Can he help us?" Carter expressed his doubts.Ajax and Justin gathered the complete details of the kid. They were skeptical about the abilities of th
Riley is deep asleep when she felt like someone is trying to poke inside her head. She felt like someone is trying to enter her mind again. She pushed whoever was trying to force their way inside her head with everything she got and woke up feeling scared and suffocated. This is not the same kind of fear she experienced when her mind was under someone else's control. This is the fear which is worrying her that whoever it is might try to control her again. That is scary and she doesn't want to feel like an outsider inside her own head. "Hey, what happened?" Carter who is sleeping beside her woke up and asked when she sat up suddenly. He turned on the lights. When he saw how pale and tensed she is, he handed her a glass of water to drink, which she accepted gratefully. "Are you alright?" he asked again. She is coiled up tightly like a wire. She looked really tensed. Riley looked at Carter feeling scared. She is grateful that he is with her. "I just had this weird feeling that someo
Timothy is an 18-year-old teenager who just finished high school and is a computer genius. He got admission to one of the most prestigious colleges in the country. He is decode anything within minutes. He developed numerous apps to troubleshoot software problems when he was just 15 years old. He is quite well known in the software world.He is looking at the chip which is embedded in Riley's head and through which Carter suspects that she was controlled."This is a transmitter kind of thing which is mostly used in robots to give them instructions to perform any particular task. This will be embedded inside the robot's head and someone will have its remote. The robot would do anything the person with the remote commands it to do. Recently they developed a voice command technology through which the robots can be commanded through a registered voice. The remote is no longer needed. Where did you find this? This is not easily available in the market and is quite expensive. This technology
Riley stood up without touching her breakfast when a voice stopped her."There you are, i thought you must be still sleeping," Carter said and sat in the chair which is beside the one she just emptied.He looked at her still full plate and raised a questioning eyebrow. She just shrugged her shoulders in response."Looks like you are not hungry. But i am super hungry. Sit and chat with me while i eat my breakfast" he said before her plate in front of him.Riley sat back on her chair and looked at him quietly.Carter saw how sad and lonely Riley looked when she was sitting alone at the table. The maids who were supposed to attend her are whispering among themselves, which is not at all a whisper. Even he can hear what they were talking about. They were discussing how Riley dressed up, how unkept and wild her hair is and she is looking more like a man than a woman.Carter doesn't understand what their problem is, but it must be the nature of people to pinpoint every detail about others w
Riley is sitting inside the trail room with a pile of clothes in front of her. When Carter parked his car in front of a huge shopping mall, she thought they came here because he wants something. But turned out that they are there because he wanted to buy so many things for her. She tried to refuse, but he didn't allow her to speak at all. Instead, he instructed the lady in a branded store to check Riley's size and pick stylish clothes for her new wardrobe. Just like Carter instructed the lady, she picked up different clothes for different occasions and requested Riley to try everything so that they can pick clothes that she likes. But Riley doesn't want to take anything from Carter. Even the saleslady gave her a nasty look and her attitude immediately changed when she saw Carter. The moment they saw Carter, all the women in the shop began to give him flirty looks. They are ready to jump if he asks them to, which irritated Riley.The maids that morning were also discussing her clothes
"Someone looks angry," Carter said lightly.After what happened in the mall, Riley expressed that she is not feeling well and wanted to go home. She doesn't tell him about anything because she is worried that he must be upset with her. He is nothing but nice to her, so she doesn't want to make him feel like she doesn't deserve it. He tried to buy her things which she needs, but she couldn't control her anger and snapped at the saleslady. She should have curbed her anger. She was never like this before. But since the moment she came to the Blue moon pack, it's as if she is changing. She became short-tempered and she tends to cry a lot. Riley is feeling like crying again. She is feeling that her fate is playing a cruel game with her. That's why she lost everyone at once. She has been crying a lot lately and he is the sole witness to all of those moments. She doesn't want to share how she was insulted and demeaned because of her clothes and poverty. She doesn't want to stay there anymo
"I want her gone. She doesn't know work ethics. She doesn't know how to treat customers. She is superficial. If you hire people like this again, then I have to think about replacing you with someone else" Carter snapped at his manager who is appointed to look after the shopping mall in the city. He is also a werewolf who was with Carter for a few years now. He is one of the members of his inner circle. Carter is rich in his own right. Apart from training to take over the Blue moon pack, Carter spent all of his free time earning money. His mother has saved up some money, which David doesn't know about. She told Carter about a week before she lost her life. Carter used that money to start his own security firm. His ideas and techniques worked out so well that clients began to pour in continuously. When he was young, Nathan used to act as his representative. He always conducted meetings via phone, so that no one could find out that he is a teenager. No one takes a teenager seriously. He
