Katherine

Soon it was evening, Conrad and I alighted from the car as we made our way to the famous restaurant in the city. We booked a table and got ourselves comfortable there.

"Do you think she would suspect a thing when she gets here?" I asked, feeling nervous.

"Calm down Katherine, you don't have to stress yourself too much," He said to me and I gave him a smile.

"By the way, what should we order for? We can't just sit here like detectives, you know?"I teased him and he simply rolled his eyes at me.

"Even detectives can't resist the urge of food, what are you talking about?" He said to me and I laughed out loud.

"Waiter," He called and soon a lady came to us with the menu.

"What would you like to order sir and ma'am?" Her Italian voice came in.

"A plate of sausage and a bottle of water please," I said. I wasn't that hungry.

"Noted, how about you sir?"She asked and Conrad ordered for a bottle of water instead, which made me frown a bit.

"Are you planning to make me the glutton here

    KatherineI stared at Conrad and wondered what he was going to say next."You have to tell the press that I am not the owner of the baby or you lose the reputation you so much try to maintain, I hope you do know what I mean," He glared at her coldly. Clara's eyes dimmed a little and looks of uncertainty flashed across her eyes for a second."I- I don't understand what you mean," She stuttered as she quickly diverted her gaze away from ours. I knew she realized what he meant. She did not want to accept the fact that her secret was already blown up."Then I am sure you can remember what happened in Chicago, On the 15th May 2005!" I whispered fiercely at her so that others won't hear it. Her eyes widened in terror like she had just seen a ghost, her face went pale and her eyes were twitching."What do you mean? Where did you get that information?" She grabbed my hands across the table like a lunatic but I quickly shoved her hands away and got up."How we got it is none of your business, j

    ConradI nodded at my secretary as I quickly made my way to the meeting. She had informed me of an urgent meeting that was being held, and from the time that it was to start, I was two minutes late."What is it all about?" I asked as I slowly approached the room. The lady stopped and flipped through the spreadsheet with her."The J&P Ltd and some other companies who terminated their contracts with us would like to come to an agreement with you, that was what the CEO stated, Sir," She said and my eyes narrowed. So it's time, it seems the effect of Clara's announcement has brought back good luck to the company.I brushed off any thoughts of distraction and nodded at her as I slowly opened the door."Oh, CEO Conrad, it's so good to finally meet you," A burly man laughed out loud as soon as I got in. He stood up and extended a handshake in which I obliged."You are welcome," I said formally and the latter rubbed his protruded belly with satisfaction. I greeted the other tycoons in the ro

    Katherine"What are you hiding from me, Katherine?"My eyes widened in shock and soon I got frenzied when I heard his voice. "Babe? W-when did you return from work?" I stuttered seeing him standing before me with a cold gaze. The phone slipped off my hand as a cold shiver ran through my spine and my hands turned sweaty."That isn't what I asked you, Katherine. What is it that you are hiding from me?" He asked again, this time his eyes dimmed and I knew I was In trouble.'What am I going to say to him now? 'My heart raced as I watched him walk closer to me."What is sealing your mouth, Dear?" He asked again and this time his right hand held my arm."I-it's nothing. I mean there's nothing that I'm hiding from you. Nothing at all," I flashed a fake smile at him hoping that he would buy it."It can't possibly be nothing , Katherine. I know you very well. Mostly when you are up to no good," He said to me and for once my heart calmed down as I saw the cold look washed off his face."That, i

    KatherineI hastily picked the phone as I stared at the content of the message.“You still owe me my favour, I hope you don’t forget soon. I am not putting you through any stress, Katherine, just do as you are told, whenever. Remember that I did my part without stress, so just the same.”“Clara,” I inaudibly muttered. Her name was not the best that I could mention at that moment, neither was she the person sending me those texts. But if I was not left with the option of trying to kick her away from my life that way, then I never will have met this person."He is so adamant about this," I cursed under my breath, staring at the address that the caller had texted me after. He said that he sent another package to me which left me wondering. Worse thing was that I had not heard of the street before. I hid the phone when I heard footsteps coming towards the room."Katherine, are you done? We are going out in an hour," I heard Conrad's voice and I stopped with what I was doing as I stared

    ConradThankfully, everything at home had been pretty okay. The quietness, the peace, and the love that I want were almost exactly what I felt. As much as it did not really feel good to say, I almost mentioned out loud that I liked that Clara’s pack tried attacking ours. Which better way should I have made Katherine pause everything that she had going on in her life for a week? Or was it because she respected me?Well, I could not tell. And making my mother go stay in another mansion was definitely the best decision that I had made in a while, though I still got calls from the servants that I had placed with her, of how she threatened to burn down the house and kill herself if I don’t get her out of there soon. But the most I know about my mother, she liked her life more than anything. She liked the affluence, fake, and all the pleasures, so I did not see her hurting herself anytime soon. They were all threats to get me confused, and I was honestly the least bothered about how.

    ConradAfter Frank had left my office, I began to ponder on what he had said.In truth, what he had suggested wasn't a bad idea, our status as a pack and company would be elevated if we went with his plan. But it would probably cost me my family and I had no intention of doing anything that would make the peace that had just settled in my household dissipate. I had just started winning Katherine over, I did not need anything, whether profitable or not- to come between us. I wouldn't do anything to jeopardize us again. I refused to make her feel used. Besides, I needed stability and peace more than anything, now that we were having a baby and I was about to become a father. It was paramount that I stayed away from anything that would cause trouble or endanger my family. I concluded on not taking Frank's advice. For my family's sake. Pushing the thoughts to the back of my mind, I decided to focus on the work at hand. My thoughts drifted to Katherine as I tried to concentrate on

    Katherine“Documents? I know nothing about it,” Conrad answered, and I nodded. "What about it?" Conrad pressed further, sounding rather confused and a sense of doubt grew up within me. I stared at him in silence wondering if he truly didn't know about the document I was referring to.Maybe he did not , I guess I must have misheard the words from my father.My Father had sounded really angry on the call, asking what nerves that Conrad had exactly, to send him the documents that he did. But I was not going to draw any conclusions, as I was only going to patiently wait till I arrive at the pack mansion that I had left for almost 7 years now. "Don't worry about it," I flashed a smile at him and headed to the dressing table. It seemed I must have truly misheard from my father, the stress I had to face of late was just too much and it was taking a toil on me."Are you really sure, Katherine? You look pale," I felt the worry in his voice but I was just too stressed up."I'm fine." I stare

    Katherine.I found Conrad seated in the living room as I stepped into it, he was perched at the edge of the couch and almost stiff from worry.“Hey,” I greeted while taking a good look at him -at the man who made me feel loved after making me pathetic.He turned his face to me and stood almost immediately, “are you ready to leave?”In response to what he had asked, I nodded.“You should take some warriors with you, I have had Frank ready about fifteen of them.”I shook my head and went to occupy the seat from which he stood up, "that would not be necessary. I am just crossing the borders to see my father and not stepping into a war zone.” And besides, appearing vulnerable before them was my main agenda. If my enemies were really close by, like I suspected, it would be best to drag them out of their hiding places as soon as possible.“You haven't been there in years, anything can happen, Katherine.” He was staring down at me with so much worry visible in his eyes, “and you had mentione

    KatherineIt was autumn, my best season of the year. I liked autumn because it signified transitions and new beginnings which was exactly what had happened to me.The mix of warm and cool colors and leaves on trees changing from green to vibrant shades of red, yellow, and orange, creating a picturesque landscape was just beautiful. These leaves eventually fall to the ground, creating a crisp, rustling sound as they brush against one another in the wind.The cool autumn air often accompanied by strong and gusty winds blows the leaves around. The air was always full of the smell of burning wood, cinnamon, and pumpkin spice emanating from households as families light up fires and bake delicious treats to warm up.It was all perfect as was my life now.I was sitted on the couch in my sitting room taking in the contents of the news that I could understand while reflecting on my life."Ricardo."I caught a glimpse of the name on the television screen and my mind wandered to all that happen

    Conrad'"Keep them both detained," I barked at one of the warriors. I couldn't afford letting Andrea and Ricardo's girlfriend slip out of my grasp. Thankfully, my warriors had come on time to save me from getting shot by Andrea, but they might not always be available and it seemed to me that he was like a beast that could attack at anytime. They were chained but there was no telling what they could have up their sleeves.I turned back to tend to Ricardo's body lying half dead on the floor. He had been shot in the chest.Before we left the field where everything had happened, Katherine had somehow managed to notice that Ricardo was still breathing though it was with so much trouble. We managed to get him back to the pack mansion to see if there was a way that we could save him, and though I feared that the chances were slim, I could not just put it to Katherine like that. It was definitely going to hurt her so much. And just as I went on with my thought process, her voice interrupt

    Katherine.It made no sense, all that Rachael was saying. I had just met her yesterday without a proper introduction even and suddenly, she had been planning on destroying my life and ruining my marriage.I turned to Riccardo, hoping that one of us would make sense of what Rachael was saying, but his eyes were on his girlfriend, obviously disappointed by her actions. I could feel the rage surging through his veins, and I reached for his hand and squeezed it lightly. I was disappointed and angry too, but I needed my child alive. “Quit the drama, Rachael, and hand my child over to me. It's obvious you don't know me, I can understand you are angry that Conrad and I are back together but, you don't know me, so please, hand me back my child. How can you all of a sudden be the one who has been trying to kill me when I don't know you.”“Argh!” She yelled out in frustration as she dumped my child into Ricardo's girlfriend's hands, “That right there is what you do that makes me mad, I attack y

    Katherine.A feeling of nostalgia hit my stomach as we pulled up in front of Conrad’s house, a place that was once mine, too. I had only been away for a year, yet it felt as though it had been an eternity. Blowing out a rush of air, I turned to look at Conrad to meet his eyes on mine.“You are nervous,” he said with certainty in his voice and I nodded, “don’t be, please. You don’t have any reasons to.” I nodded again as he took my hand to give it a light squeeze.“Okay,” I said in response to the look he was giving me. Reaching for the back seat, he grabbed the baby carrier and stepped out of the car while hurrying to my side to help me out.I bit the inside of my cheek to keep my nerves down, yet my stomach churned as we stepped into the front porch. With the glass of wine left on the table there, I figured Conrad's mom was around, and those pair of critic's eyes were the first thing I met as we stepped into the house.“Katherine?” Her eyes were narrowed in surprise. She dropped the

    ConradI was on the road like a maniac, according to Ricardo, Katherine was somewhat being held hostage at home and he wanted me to assist in breaking her out. I understood perfectly well what he meant, and I was rushing over there to carry out what was required of me. I wasn't doing this because of some sort of feelings attached, Katherine had saved me moments ago, it was only natural that I paid her back what I owed. My mother Lina was against my coming here, but there was no way I was letting someone who had saved me moments ago just get killed or harassed. She probably feared that me getting friendly with Katherine was going to trigger some sort of feelings in me, but after assuring her that my loyalty laid with Rachel, she allowed me to leave.The car came to a halt in front of the Patterson mansion, and without hesitation I stormed into into the place. On my way I had knocked down some few guards who dared to oppose me, but I did well not to kill them. In fact I was done with t

    KatherineI stood in awe at the scene before me while trying to digest everything I had just witnessed. Frank was dead, and to be killed by Conrad? It was definitely a twist I hadn't expected. Nothing was ever as it seemed, I thought Clara was evil and all, but now I was convinced that monsters existed, and for some reason I felt like there was a greater evil lying in wait for the perfect time. I had no idea what to do at this point. Should I console Conrad or take my leave? Leaving when Conrad was at verge of breaking down emotionally was definitely a bad idea. He had just lost his best friend, there was no way I could just straight up leave without saying some words of comforts to him at least."I'm sorry things turned out this way. I never expected this to happen." "It's okay, you did the right thing, everything is my fault. Thank you for the help." Conrad replied. I was honestly surprised he was even able to speak in such a state, he was definitely stronger than I had imagined.

    ConradI sat quietly before the council, and so did the other attendants of this meeting. Ever since Clara's murder I hadn't gotten a whiff of anything good. Things were spiraling out of control with every passing minute, and now here I was seated before the wolf council, waiting to be tried for a murder I didn't commit.Clara's father was present, as well as Lina and Rachel alongside Frank. The anxiety was clear on everybody's face, aside from Frank who has been awfully neutral about this entire case. "So tell me Mr Alaric, what evidence do you have to back up your claims of innocence? Do you have an alibi that can confirm your location at the time of Clara's kidnap and murder?"I didn't have anyone who I could say was my alibi, whoever that was framing me had done the job almost perfectly, I had no arguments to throw out as a claim of my innocence except saying it. "Do you really have to ask if that Monster did it?! The evidence is clear, he murdered my daughter and he should be pu

    Katherine.The compound was bustling with people who were coming in to drop off the things that Dad, Andrea and Theresa had ordered for the wedding…my wedding and from my window with which I had been looking down from for the past few days, I admired the workers, at least, they were really working hard toward the wedding and not unenthusiastic as I was.My eyes followed the two men who had brought flowers as they walked back to their car and started the engines to leave. I was waiting for something to happen and just as I expected, the guards by the gate stopped then to thoroughly search their car. “Oh come on,” I groaned with a sigh as I backed away from the window. The security around the house had grown too tight since the first day Theresa came, and I wondered if Dad had read my thoughts and seen my desire to run away or if it was Andrea who was trying all he could to see I married him.Given the now tight security, my desire to run seemed near-impossible but, I needed to leave t

    Conrad.The person staring back at me in the mirror was not me, he may look like me but, he certainly wasn't me, he was the shadow of my old self, but I did like him. I appreciate the way he mocked me, his eyes, they mocked me and I appreciate it, his mocking glare was the only thing that kept me sane. It was the only thing that reminded me that I was not supposed to break.'You are an Alpha, Conrad, you have a pack to lead,' that was what he said to me.The door to my room came open and from the corner of my eyes, I saw Rachael walk in, she was the other thing that kept me sane. Her reassuring words and her pleasant smiles had been of great help these past few days.“Leaving for work already?” She asked as she went to occupy the couch that was positioned next to the dressing table.Running my fingers through my hair, I turned my body to her before slowly tearing my eyes away from the mirror, "yeah, I think it's time I went back to the office, I have lots of things to do at the office
