Katherine.It was our second day since our flights had been cancelled two nights ago. Aiden and I had spent the previous day talking to our investors and trying to recruit more, Dad had called the previous night telling me how he was proud of the number of deals we closed and the number of investors we managed to get. Aiden had suggested we should go sightseeing today but I had suggested we use the opportunity to visit the land we had purchased at Mongolia Veneto, a land outlying Venice.We needed to know how the building construction was going since we had seen the site only once and since we needed to gain the trust of our investors, I proposed that we take them with us too and Aiden concurred to that.The construction engineer walked up to us when we got to the site as Aiden helped me out of the car.“Mrs. Patterson,” the engineer greeted with a bow, his Italian accent dominating his English, “Buongiorno signora,” “Ah, merçi beaucoup,” Thomas replied as he patted the engineer's bac

Conrad.Saying I was disappointed hearing those words from Katherine would be an understatement, I was broken, I was bittered but still very disappointed. Although knowing quite well that Katherine had been toying with my feelings, knowing that she had never loved me, hearing her say it to me shattered my soul.Still in shock, I watched her from the corner of my eyes as she walked away from me without caring to look back. I had hoped that she would turn back to me and tell me with laughter that she was just joking and all that she said were lies, but she did not. Instead, she went over to Aiden, and soon they left the site without sparing me a glance, except for Aiden who wanted to gun me down with his eyes. “You're not with them, sir?” Their engineer asked as I stood at a spot watching them drive away, and I looked at the engineer with a sigh escaping my lips before walking back to my construction site.Ricardo's eyes followed me until I came to stand next to him. I had managed to g

Katherine.“Are your bags all packed up?”I shook my head in negation and placed my hand in Aiden’s as he helped me down the stairs. We were headed downstairs for breakfast, as Aiden had suggested. I had not been up to having breakfast in my room and since we still had some things to talk about, we agreed to go downstairs for breakfast.“But, I will get it done before the end of today.” I managed to say, trying so much to dodge the continuous pressures that he intended to keep mounting on me. “We leave by nightfall, Kathy,” He stressed.“I’m aware of that, besides, there isn’t much for me to pack.” I shrugged. Aiden let go of me as we stepped into the restaurant, and we headed straight to get a table. I picked up the menu card on the table and while I ordered a cappuccino and a croissant, Aiden ordered a Tortellini and white wine.“Oh,” Aiden said, and I paused halfway to my mouth, to look up at him, with a piece of the croissant in my hand, “remind me please to orderly compile the

Katherine.I pulled out of the hug with Aiden and took a step back as I admired him from head to toe. He was handsomely dressed in a blue tuxedo, with his hair styled differently.“You are sure you are coming back to the pack immediately?” Aiden asked as he gripped his suitcase. “Of course, where else am I to go?” He shrugged, “I don't know, you spent a lot of time with him today, and now he is offering to take you back home in his jet, any other thing may come up later.”“Nothing of that sort will happen.” I said with clarity, and I meant it. Andrea was just a friend who knew how to have fun and since I was the opposite of him, I decided to tag along to get a little taste of what fun was.“Look, all I am concerned with is your safety, your father entrusted you to my hands. I will be a dead man if anything is to happen to you.”“And may I remind you that I am old enough to take care of myself?“When you are alone, Kathy, when you are alone, but, your dad entrusted you to my care, I'

ConradWhat more did Katherine want to do that was going to hurt me? To the best of my knowledge, she had hurt me so much, and I was already getting really fed up with everything. If not for anything, for my mental health, I totally wanted to stay away. Messing around with Aiden was not enough, and now Andrea? The craziest part of all of it was the fast way that everything went right. We were just good the night before she left and I think it was what hurt me the most. Now, she was taking pictures with Andrea in a fucking private jet. Even the blind man could see that I had been a fool all along. “And she would say it’s all business and nothing more,” I cursed, almost hitting my hands against the mirror before my wolf’s voice came. “So how long do you want to do this part? Because as much as I remember, it is about all you have been doing for a very long time now and it has not changed anything.”I only sneered at him, and pushed the files I was working on off my table. None of tha

KatherineSo far so good was what I would easily pass as a description for my life at the moment. My current life wasn't the best life so far, but I didn't particularly care or pay specific attention to the way I lived my life. I was almost uncertain of everything and everyone, but the one thing I was certain of was that I was living a better life than I used to.Although my life was going pretty smoothly, I still had a few problems, and they were particularly from my father. There was no denying that in the past few weeks my relationship with Andrea has deepened exponentially, but although I didn't really consider our relationship a romantic one, my father seemed to misunderstand the entire situation.As a child, I had grown up in the company, care and love of my father and this for some reason makes him think that he knew everything about me. Though I deeply appreciated his concern and care for me, these were matters that I should be in control of and not him. Lately he has been v

ConradHow my child was faring, that was the one and only thing that I still allowed to keep me restless. To not feel the sting of the hurt that Katherine caused me, I had decided to stay numb to emotions in general. But my child? It was almost an impossible mission, and I was waiting to go for my child. Frank had advised me to not take any drastic action as Katherine was going to deny me the fatherhood of my child, or maybe do something that will hurt our child. So I was just out here, waiting for the moment that my child would come into the world. Thankfully, I was certain that the child belonged to me, even with all the conflicting thoughts that I have had. “The new cubs in the pack, have they begun training?” I raised my face to Frank and he replied with a nod. “Just yesterday, I assigned some warriors there and they will make sure they develop properly into strong wolves.”“Okay, that is good then.” I said with a smile. Perhaps one of these days I would pay a visit to the lit

ConradRachel Harrington. I could not tell why, but that name had done a good job sticking to my head. There was just this thing about her which as much as I could not lay my hands on what it was exactly, attracted me to her and I intended to keep her around till I know why. Don’t get it twisted, it was not love that I was sure of. I had not even spent so much time with her, as the only time that I had seen her was two days ago when against my will, I had to go to the Harrington’s mansion. The Harrington’s had stayed in the pack for as long as I could remember, but I had no idea that they had a daughter, Rachel. Though, from the information I had managed to gather, she had been out of the pack and had only returned some weeks ago. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Alpha Conrad, you really don’t know how much I have anticipated this day.” Those were her exact words, the moment that she came out to meet me that day, and they struck multiple cords in my neck. “Anticipated this day?

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
