TWO WEEKS LATERAlex’s POVIt has been two weeks since we killed Stefan Snow. One of the two responsible men for murdering my father.Two weeks of peace and quiet settling over Snow. And I wanted to keep it that way for a very long time.I had made some changes during that period. Changes that will ensure that nothing gets past our borders without me knowing about it ever again.I assigned four of my people to sit in the old warehouse and keep monitoring the live feed from the hidden security cameras on all border entrances.They were given six hour shifts and they were told to switch with their pairs so they don’t get bored out of their minds in that place.They were sworn to secrecy, never to reveal anything about their assignments, not even to their families or loved ones.Up until now, we haven’t heard any response from Damian Zade.But I was certain that it was far from being over between us.He was up to something and I hoped that by the time Lucas and David were back, we would
Jenny’s POVThis man is so perfect.I can’t believe this man is mine.I still can’t believe how amazing, caring, passionate, and loving he is.How happy he makes me everyday.A while ago, I blamed him for taking my dreams away, for plunging me down in the darkness, and I loathed him so much for it.Ever since I started seeing his true personality, his true character, ever since we both decided to give each other a chance and showed love to each other, I had all my dreams back, and all my darkness turned into bright exploding lights of colorful fireworks.There is not a day where I don’t miss his scent, his voice, his presence, even if he was sitting right next to me, I miss him. I always yearn for his touch, his kisses, his love making and his intense claim over my body.Every day my love for him increases and blossoms and I don’t think it will ever reach a point where it will stop growing.We had just finished speaking a video call with my mom.Mom was so thrilled that I was happy no
Jenny’s POV“What do you want?” I ask through gritted teeth.My heart was about to explode out of fear for Megan and fear for what Simon was up to.“It’s pretty simple really and yet very crucial that you stick to it to the dot without trying anything heroic or your friend takes a bullet through her skull. I want you to leave your phone in the house and meet me outside. Your friend’s car is two miles away from here, you can see it once you step out of the gates. Don’t tell anyone about me and don’t try to call Alex or send him a message because I will instantly find out, I have someone watching their every move right now. You have exactly two minutes, if I don’t see you after that, goodbye Megan”Before I could utter a word he hung up on me.“Shit!” I whispered and threw my phone on the bed.My whole body was trembling at this point.He was fucking serious.I didn’t have a second to waste on thinking things through and coming up with a plan to save us. There was no way to tell anyone
Jenny’s POVThe first thing that seeps through my awareness is the freezing coldness of the atmosphere.I was uncontrollably shaking, my teeth were chattering.I’m instantly aware of what happened to me.It felt like only minutes ago, I saw a man shooting Simon without any hesitation, even though I was sure it has been a lot more than minutes.The second thing I become aware of before I open my eyes is that I can’t move.My hands and feet were bound. I was sitting on a chair, my hands painfully pinned behind my back, while my feet were tied up to the legs of the chair.The smell of smoking was filling up the place, where ever that place was.God does Alex know what happened yet?Is he looking for me?A part of me wanted him to come right now and rescue me but another part didn’t. It was a trap. They were going to kill them all.I finally gathered the courage to open my eyes and take a look at my surroundings.I seemed to be in an empty large warehouse.Empty of any material that is, b
Alex’s POVAs soon as I said those words, I felt like my heart was exploding inside my chest, like my lungs stopped functioning, and my tongue felt numb and very heavy inside my mouth.Tears sprang to my eyes and I had to do everything in my power not to scream at the top of my lungs and take back every fucking word I just said. Not to vow to skin that man alive for daring to attempt and touch what was mine, for even looking at her so dirtily, for merely saying her name with his fucking mouth.I was shaking with rage, delirious with vengeance, seeing red and no other color.It was the first time I ever felt this blood thirsty to kill every last one of those men hiding inside that warehouse.The warehouse was just on the outskirts of Yukon.We were positioned right outside it.All my clan.All two hundreds of us.They stood no chance of getting out of this alive, no chance at all.Kidnapping and threatening me with Jenny was a very low blow on their part. It was the last fucking mistak
Alex’s POVDavid was shielding Lucas with his body just before a bullet hit him in the back.Lucas had his gun aimed and shot the injured guy who just tried to shoot him before David jumped in front of him. the guy went down with a bullet to his head.“David!” Lucas called out frantically as he held on to him and checked his injury.Unfortunately, we didn’t have time to wear our bullet proof vests because of how urgently we had to catch up with Jenny. We barely had time to grab our guns and extra back ups.Blood was spilling down his shirt, drenching it.The bullet was lodged in the right side of his lower back.“Dammit David!” Lucas shouted in rage.There was no response from David, he passed out.Jenny was still clutching me tightly and shaking violently.I lifted her up again and shouted at the others to help carry David back to the car and press on his wound so he doesn’t bleed out.Snow was merely twenty five minutes away from here.I got in the back of one of the SUVs, with Jenn
Alex’s POVI arrived at home and reassured Sara and April that David was out of surgery and that his condition wasn’t critical before I went into my room.Mom was sitting beside her, playing with her hair.She was still asleep.Thankfully, they cleaned her up and changed her clothes into comfortable baby blue, cotton pants and t-shirt.Mom stood up when she saw me and I told her about David before she asked me.She visibly relaxed and I could tell how worried she was for him.“Did she wake up at all?” I asked her.She shook her head and said in a low voice “No, she never woke up but her diabetes is stable, I checked her watch frequently. She’s probably exhausted from all the fear she went through today. She needs you the most right now. It’s a good thing she didn’t wake up yet because the first person she’d want to see is you, Alex”I nodded my head and clenched my jaw tensely.She left the room after that even though I could tell she had many questions on her mind, but she let me be
Jenny’s POVAfter a long steamy shower together, we finally left our room and joined the rest of the family for dinner.David was the only one missing and it was at that moment that I remembered him taking a bullet for Lucas.“How’s David?” I asked Lucas warily.“He’s okay, I tried to get him discharged but the doctor said he had to stay at least for tonight for more observation” said Lucas gently.I could see it in his eyes even though he didn’t say it. He was very touched by David’s sacrifice.These two will never grow apart again after today.“How are you Jenny? We were so scared when we realized what happened” said Diana gravelly.I could almost hear the hint of reproach in her tone at the move I made behind their backs by sneaking out without telling anyone.Before I could explain myself, Alex jumped to my rescue “She was in a very tough situation and didn’t have any time to alert anyone mom. Megan’s life was at stake, she didn’t have much of a choice”Diana nodded and said emoti
