Puppy Love 58 What Awaits Us On Cain's Island
~Charlotte~ I could not believe Caspian and I were heading to Cains. Although Marvin and Oliver were tagging along with their girlfriends, it was still going to be a thrilling experience. I was head over heels for Caspian, and I could tell he felt the same way. I understood Liam's need to be cautious, but I hoped they would know they had nothing to worry about where Caspian was concerned. I trusted him completely, and he had opened up his heart to me. "Our flight is in an hour," Caspian said to me, stroking my hand gently while we sat side by side on the couch in the lounge. "I am excited, Caspian, and a bit nervous about meeting your family," I confessed. He pulled me close and landed a gentle kiss on my lips. "You have nothing to worry about, Charlotte. It is an honour for them to meet you. My mother was a bit afraid when I told her who my mate was. I am sure they will be on their best behaviour and pamper you there. They have wanted me to settle down for a bit now, and now th
Last Updated : 2023-09-09Puppy Love 59 Welcome To Gad
~Jospehine~ We were left alone at the airport with Kappa Wilson on guard. The fact that our flight was delayed made me a bit bored. I was looking forward to going to Gad. I knew my parents would want to speak to Liam about our relationship, and I was hopeful that it would go well. I knew that was precisely why Justin had sent us to Gad. Because, thinking of it, Justin could have also gone to Gad to get the list from Eric and then headed to Brighton to get the list from Nelson. These were trips they could have made in two days. I suspected that my father had a hand in this, and we will find out. "Where will we be staying when we get to Gad?" I asked Liam, and he did not know how to respond. I could tell he was a bit worried. "I would have stayed in one of my father's properties there, but we both know your father would want you home if we will be sleeping in Gad, so I guess I would stay at the Kuznetsov's Estate," he said. I knew there was no way we would be sharing a room. We only

~Harper~ We arrived in Lumas in an hour. We rarely go to Brighton, so I hadn't been to Lumas in a while, but it was a beautiful city now. Lord Alexei and Lord Clay, and their current Alpha, were doing an excellent job, and it was evident in how rapidly the West was developing. Eric was also a great contributor to development. As things were, the West was just as developed as the North, maybe a little bit more advanced, and we have to give it to the geniuses of the Stepanov clan. "Let's catch a cab to take us to Brighton," Justin said, and I adjusted my sunglasses and scarf to hide my identity. Justin had on a hat and sunglasses so no one could recognise us. We headed out and tried to call a cab. To our surprise, none was willing to go to Brighton. They claimed that road construction was ongoing, and thus, they could not travel the highway. It meant we were stuck. The only other option was to hire a Helicopter to do so. We would have to go through the Alpha. Lumas was a small c

~Harper~ Justin seemed a bit tired when he got in the car, and I wondered what he might have been up to. Leaving Jacob's Villa behind, I looked at my cousin where he sat. "How was your night?" I asked him, and he smiled. "Stayed awake all through," he said and looked at me. "I can see it was the same for you. I bet Jacob came to say hello," He said with a broad grin, and I wondered how he knew. "How did you know?" I asked him. "He kept his eyes on you from the moment we arrived. He tried tirelessly to get you alone, but I never gave him the chance. You were his focus all through. I was worried he would try something stupid at night, which was why I linked you, but it seems he is a gentleman after all," Justin said, and I did not know it seemed like that from the outside. I guess I had a lot to learn. "So, what did you discuss?" He asked me, and I sighed. "He gave me his number, took mine, and said he wanted us to be friends. He also said he would visit me in Grizlo," I said, an
Last Updated : 2023-09-11Puppy Love 62 In Cain's
~Charlotte~ We arrived at Caspian's home. I was surprised to see that it was a duplex. Once the Limo parked, I looked at him, waiting for his cue. "I live apart from my family. They live in the estate while I live here. We will go to the estate after we have settled in. I hope that is fine by you," he said to me, and I nodded with a grin because he had just made things a little hotter for both of us. "Are we staying here also?" Marvin asked him, realising they might be intruding, and Caspian nodded. "There are six rooms in this building. I am sure it is enough," Caspian replied, and Oliver sighed. "Great, we can have a room each," Oliver said, and Elaine smiled. "Layla and I can share a room," She said, looking at Layla, and I was surprised at their level of discipline. I thought they might camp together like Josephine and Liam. I guess Oliver had better self-control than Liam. Caspian might just be right about Josephine and Liam being fated; We would just have to wait and see.

~Liam~ The glint in Josephine's eyes indicated that she enjoyed the battle. I would lie if I said it wasn't thrilling. I was afraid, but at the same time, Alex and I saw it as an opportunity to practice everything we had been taught most of our lives. I had never been in a life-threatening situation before, so this was thrilling. It seemed like they had come to take us. The driver ensured that he stopped on an isolated road so they could attack his colleagues and subdue us. I guess they were not expecting the might they met. "I wonder why they did not use any of their contraband items before initiating this attack. The wolves seemed pretty ordinary to me," Josephine said, making a valid observation. They must have known Josephine and I would not go down easily. Josephine had the same abilities as Aunty Amelia, making her super fast and deadly. I was as tough as my dad. They would have needed the Agk32 to successfully subdue us. I know it is wrong for dealers to get high

~Leo~ Things had hit a standstill with the investigation until Justin called to inform us about the housekeeper they had caught. Although Tamia had seen a fair image of Margret in the photo, we couldn't be sure if she was among them. I had to commend Vino for insisting that we flag her as a person of interest just in case she is a part of it. If not, we wouldn't have been suspicious enough to arrest and question her. I had to give it to the Grizlo team; they were on fire and performing very well. To think that we believed if we allowed our children in the same place, they wouldn't work. I was glad to see everyone bringing their expertise on board, and so far, no one had complained about my boys. I was worried Justin would find Noah and Sebastien impossible to deal with, but they have been working fine so far. As things were, our children seemed more efficient than us, and even though they were sent to Grizlo so they would be away from the mess, we ended up putting them right

~Harper~ ONE YEAR TWO MONTHS LATER. Jacob kept his promise and visited me in Grizlo. He came whenever he could and was a gentleman about it. Justin believed Jacob liked me, but I wouldn't jump where he was concerned. Now that I was a little over nineteen, I needed to be careful because whoever I was with would be my mate. There was no mystery about Jacob, and he seemed like an open book, yet I was still dragging my feet where he was concerned. I did not know if it was our investigation or the circumstances that surrounded me, but I just wanted to give it time. Jacob had checked on me in Lucland once and had dinner with my parents, and they liked him. I knew it must count for something, yet something held me back. We were fixing up the hall in the packhouse at Grizlo for Josephine's 18th birthday. Liam wanted to go all out, and this was where he was starting from. He had booked a holiday in a lovely resort on Cain Island with the help of Caspian, and I did not know what he was

Puppy Love 158 A New Life
~Sophia~ Justin's kiss was sweeter than the last I remembered. He had stayed away from me for a while, and I was mad at him for it, but I knew he would make it for my eighteenth birthday. I knew he would come, and I anticipated it. He stayed away mainly because he didn’t want to cross the line, but tonight, fate told us it was okay, and we embraced it. My tears could not stop flowing. They were tears of joy and relief. I was grateful. So grateful. Justin lifted me in his arms and carried me inside; my eyes remained fixed on him, not caring about the surroundings. I knew he had put a lot of work into it, but we had to finish our unfinished business before we attended to the other stuff. His gaze remained on mine, making me giggle. “You look so beautiful tonight, Sophia,” he said, and I was glad he liked the effort. It was for him. Laying me on the bed, he kissed me and travelled from my neck to my sweet spot. Justin was a guy who liked to make out a bit rough and overwhelming, b
Puppy Love 157 In A Short While
~Justin~ I stayed away after we had solved the case and made all the arrests. Things had not ended well for many people who were on the wrong side of the law. For the rest of us, we had moved on. Rachael ended up with her mate, who happened to be a Stepanov from one of the ten Ruling houses in the west. It was as if she knew she was meant to be with a great man all along, and fate had answered her prayers. As much as I did not want to discuss the punishment for the criminals, I just have to say most of them had been killed. There were scheduled executions for most of them, as there were many. The King wanted everyone involved to pay, no matter how small their part was. Fortunately, Uncle Vino had pushed for Jessica, something I knew Jewelles had everything to do with. She got fifteen years of sentencing, not after they asked Adrian and Rachael if they were okay with it. They both had moved on and didn't care what happened to her, so she was lucky there. At least she will get to see
Puppy Love 156 The Resolves
~Liam~ One week passed, and Adrian Jacob, Harper and Jewelles returned to Lumas. Our parents had made a series of arrests. The activities were all over. Underground warehouses were found, crime lords were arrested, and factories were shut down. Unknown to my father, this operation started shortly after they defeated Yuri, and it was started by none other than Walter Armstrong, Nelson's lab technician, who messed up the D3 formula and destroyed Cones Village. The real reason behind the ban. Apparently, the defective D3 did not come from Nelson's lab but from one of Walter's makeshift labs that he tried to pass off as Nelson's goods when he was building his crime Network. Unfortunately for him, he was apprehended and locked up. His mate, Natasha Armstrong, being his partner in crime, feared that the law would catch up with them, so she faked her death, abandoning her children with lots of unpaid debts and an uncertain future. The cold-hearted bitch did not bother to look back. Nata
Puppy Love 155 Dominate Me
~Jewelles~ A week had passed since we discovered the truth, and our parents worked tirelessly to arrest all implicated. During the arrest, we discovered an underground recruitment for warriors. We might never know what the sick bastards planned, but I was glad we could trump their plan before it was in motion. The biggest mistake they made was to take Sophia. If that parcel hadn’t been delivered to Luna Glenda, the traitor and murderer, we wouldn't have been the wiser, and they would have gotten away with their crimes unnoticed. As much as Jacob hid his pain, I could see it. His mother was one of the people who would receive a long sentence. She would have been executed, but I had pleaded with my father to put in a word for her for Jacob's sake. Jacob didn’t ask me to do it, but I knew it was eating him inside. He found out what I did this morning, flipped and hasn't spoken to me. It has been a long, agonising day. Jacob was also yet to seal the deal. He was mad at me for taking m
Puppy Love 154 Finally What I Want
~Charlotte~ After spending time with everyone in the garden, Caspian and I decided to retire. Our parents were so busy with arrests and judgements that we did not have a general dinner, but it was okay. Snuggled in Caspian's Arms in our room. Aunty Tamia planned to give Jewelles, Harper and me permanent rooms in the estate. They wanted us to always have a reason to come home with our mates. I could understand, and I appreciated it. Our rooms were still being renovated; they were in the Delta wing of the mansion. Many rooms were unoccupied there, and since our family was expanding, we would be given rooms there. All of us, including the guys. That way, we will all be in one wing when we are around. I could not believe everything was finally over. Although there had not been any sentencing yet, our part of the investigation was over. Our parents had dreaded it leading to war, but it didn’t this time. It might have if they had successfully mass-produced their Agk32 to create an army.
Puppy Love 153 Reminiscing
~Justin~ While Sophia was with her father. I decided to make some plans. The case seemed closed on our side. We had finished the initial assignment, which was figuring out what happened that night. Uncle Sylvester had also explained that only people with jurisdiction can interfere with the case onward. There wasn't much to do but pick up the people mentioned. It was over, meaning an alpha would be appointed for Grizlo. It meant we would have to get to our normal lives, and I could not see a normal life without Sophia. I was nervous now that her father had been found and he would be free. I wondered if she would feel the same. I hoped to drag the case a bit longer, but it was impossible. I decided to call the staff at my house in Lucland to fix the place up. I wasn’t sure why, but I knew that once Sophia turned eighteen, I would not hesitate. She had asked me about where I lived in Lucland. I planned to spend time with her there and live with her in the near future if she would hav
Puppy Love 152 Mike's Angle
~Justin~ It was time to question Mike, and Noah was the first to link me. Of course, he would be eager. He had a theory, and Mike’s account would help him fit the pieces together. His reasons differed from Liam's and mine. Mike was a puzzle Noah and Sebastien wanted to solve, while we wanted to find a way to save Sophia and exonerate Mike if he was innocent. Jellewes came with Lily to get Sophia. My entire team would have to be present at the questioning, so Harper and Jo would not be available. I needed Lily and Jewelles to help take her mind off what was happening. Jewelles and Lilly planned to keep her occupied until after the questioning. I thanked them for their kindness. Although Lisa's team were not invited, Lisa insisted to be a part of it. My sister was overzealous like that. I couldn't wait for her to settle down and get on with her life. Tanya had returned home to her mate. The entire ordeal with Harper had shaken her completely. I doubted she would be volunteering for a
Puppy Love 151 Telling Her
~Justin~ After planning our questioning strategy with my team, I spent time with Sophia. We planned to question Mike in the evening to avoid dragging the investigation too long. Adrian wanted to take Harper back to Lumas in two days. Likewise, Jacob and Jewelles, so I knew we had to move quickly. Although I hoped they would stay a bit longer. It was fun having them around. I didn't feel so old. Usually, I was forced to act like an uncle to my cousins, and that made them uncomfortable around me, and they saw me as boring, but with Caspian, Adrian, and Jacob in our team, I was more comfortable now. I had also made new friends who were now part of my family. Caspian wasn't leaving until the case was done, but I hoped Adrian and Jacob would stay a bit. Not that I will tell them. Sophia had spent the morning with the ladies. Harper had come to get her, and I think it helped her a lot because she felt a lot better knowing Harper and Lily were fine and weren’t traumatised by the inciden
