Anna

It had been two days since Lily went missing. Even Duncan was nowhere to be found.

Lucas was barely around, and Levi, well, when he was around, he was ignoring the shit out of me, almost like it was a guarded effort.

It was around lunchtime and I was starving. I made my way to the kitchen and found Zoe, the maid I had met the other day whistling and stirring batter.

“Hey, Zoe. How are you doing?” I asked.

“Anna, hey. I'm great. How are you?” She asked, a huge smile on her face.

She was the only one around here that seemed happy to see me. The rest of the maids always gave me the side eye or the stink eye.

“I'm okay, I think. Just a little stressed and worried,”

She frowned. “Would you like something to eat? I can make you something sweet,”

“Sure, thank you.” I smiled.

“What exactly are you worried about?”

I thought she'd never ask.

“Lily.” I said, watching her expression carefully.

Zoe's hands hesitated for a fraction of a second before she resumed stirring the batter. "Oh.. yea

    AnnaWest Wing. The words kept echoing in my head, circling my thoughts like Vultures over a dead body. What were they hiding in there?What were they preparing for?The mysteries of this mansion grew like wolf fire, the more I discovered, the more questions I had.It had only been a week since I had infiltrated this place but I still felt a little inadequate that I hadn't been able to gather concrete enough evidence or find out anything about my mother.It was exhausting, especially since there were eyes watching my every move. Despite all my efforts to evade them, I had not been able to do much. There were eyes everywhere and it frustrated me.The only solid evidence I had so far was the money laundering operation, a major crime, but not enough to take down the entire organization.I needed more. More evidence and I needed answers. I knew I needed to be patient but patience wasn't something I possessed in me.The last time I had been patient, I had lost my mother.The West Wing see

    AnnaI spent the rest of the day avoiding Duncan like the plague.I still hadn't found out who was responsible for the little discrepancy in the account but at the same time, I didn't care. I just knew I didn't want to be around Duncan before I did something I'd regret.Besides, I had a plan and it was to figure out a way to get to the West Wing and Duncan's room within the week but first, I had to befriend a few people. Especially the maids.They were more forthcoming with information than anyone else in the house, especially Zoe. The rest of them barely wanted to speak to me.I knew at the back of my head, the best way to get to Duncan's room was to sleep with him but I refused to be like Sabrina or one of his other girls.I refused to be that.After I was done with work for the day, I left the office and went in search of Zoe, but she wasn't in the kitchen and neither were the other maids.Shit! She'd probably retired for the day.Reluctantly, I left the kitchen, heading to my roo

    AnnaDuncan's words hit me like a slap. A deal?My breath caught in my throat as I forced my gaze to remain steady on his. He stood there, tall and commanding, his bare chest rising and falling in slow, deliberate breaths. Every inch of him exuded confidence, the kind that made men dangerous men and women reckless.But I wasn't about to be reckless. Not again."What kind of deal?" My voice came out stronger than I intended for it to.Duncan's lips twitched, his eyes gleaming with something unreadable. "I want you in bed, Anna," he whispered.I knew it was coming but I didn't expect it to be so blatant, to be so crude."You are joking." I blurted out.His eyes narrowed."Do I strike you as a man that jokes around, Anna?" He asked, his expression now unreadable as he tilted his head slightly, stepping forward.I stepped back again instinctively, my legs hitting the edge of his bed.Fuck! Now, I was between him and a hard place. The tension between rose to a burning degree but I managed

    AnnaDuncan’s lips were firm yet soft against mine as he kissed me roughly, his scent wafting into my senses, intoxicating me.I wanted to push him away, to tell him I changed my mind but all I ended up doing was pulling him closer and kissing him back with equal heat and need.My entire body hummed with pleasure as I kissed him back with equal feverish need, our lips tangling in the moment, fighting for dominance.He tasted like whisky, cola and something else I couldn't place and I wanted more of him.I moaned, grabbing his neck and pulling him closer, wanting to feel him on my skin.Goosebumps peppered my skin at the intensity between us.His tongue pushed past my mouth, sucking on mine. It felt too good, too intense, I was drowning in him, in his scent, in his essence.I had never felt this way before about anyone, these intebee need to breathe him in.My nipples hardened at his touch and I whimpered when his hands found my ass and squeezed.His hands found my waist, pulling my

    AnnaMy eyes fluttered open and I woke up to an empty and unfamiliar room and then it hit me.I was in Duncan's room. Shit!The memories of us in bed together flooded to the surface of my mind, and I closed my legs instinctively, feeling the nostalgic feeling of pleasure rush directly to my clit.I must have fallen asleep after the third round. I could still feel him inside me.Shit!Shit! I cursed under my breath as I glanced at the wall clock across the bed.It was 6:48 am.Quickly, I jumped out of the king-size bed and began to search for my clothes.They were not on the fur covered floor.I found them neatly folded on top of a plush emerald colored couch close to the floor to ceiling window.Without wasting any time, I grabbed my jeans and quickly put them on, followed by my hoodie. I shoved my bra in my back pocket.I was glad Duncan wasn't here to see me like this.I caught my reflection in the window and frowned. I looked flushed and disheveled. Almost like I had been thoroug

    Duncan “Was it all that you hoped it would be? Sabrina asked as she burst into my office, her expression unreadable.I glanced up at her with one perfect arched eyebrow."I beg your pardon?”I asked, confused at her sudden anger. I had sent for her this morning because I had an assignment I needed her to carry out and it could only be done using deduction which Sabrina was great at. There was a stash coming into the state that belonged to a competitor and I needed her to get it.The full moon was approaching, and plenty of our rogues would need them to control themselves.“Don't play dumb; I know you slept with her,” she said, this time with a calmer voice. “I saw her coming out of your room looking thoroughly fucked.”I rolled my eyes when I realised what she was talking about.“It's absolutely fine. I don't care. I know you have your needs… I just want to know if she was all you imagined,”The last thing I wanted to do was talk to Sabrina about it, but since she wanted to be childi

    Anna After pacing my room, trying to piece together the new information I had just found out, I made my way to the kitchen.Zoe and another maid, Rita, were washing the dishes.They immediately stopped talking as soon as they spotted me.Rita gave me a disgusted look, huffed, and then walked off.I frowned but didn't think much of it. Most of the maids here didn't like me anyway. Only Zoe and two other maids made me as comfortable as possible.“Anna, are you hungry?’ she asked.I nodded with a smile, my stomach rumbling just in time.“You didn't come down for breakfast today,”“Uh, yeah,” I said, pulling out a stool from under the kitchen island and sitting down. “I was preoccupied,”She nodded.“Tea?”“Yes, thank you.” I smiled. I was starving. The rigorous night I had with Duncan made sure of that.Zoe served me a Benedict breakfast and I dug in, letting my mind wander.After a few minutes, I noticed Zoe's awkward stance. She was staring at me in an odd way.“Is something wrong, Zo

    Anna“What are you talking about, darling?” He asked, stepping closer and grabbing me by the waist. qqHis scent engulfed me, and my initial need to resist dissipated. I frowned as I looked past him towards the door. It was closed. Where on earth did he appear from?I wondered, glancing between him and the door. There was no other door around but the bathroom door, and it was a good nine feet away.“You… how did you get here?” I asked, a bewildered expression on my face.“How did I get into my office?” “No,” I shook my head. “You weren't here when I came in.”“I know, I was out,” he said, tucking a single strand of hair behind my hair, a look of amusement in his eyes.I stepped away from his touch, hating the way my body was all too happy to be near him.He was so intoxicating. His presence made it hard for me to breathe, especially now that he knew what my intimate parts looked like.“Forget it,” I said. He nodded, that knowing look still evident in his gaze.“Sabrina said you wan

    DuncanI watched Anna as she slept. She looked peaceful in her sleep but I could tell something was bothering her.Not just that, I knew she was hiding something from me.I had grown to trust her, fighting my feelings for her as much as I could.Being with a human girl made no sense to me, but Clark, my wolf, didn't care. When I had told her that I loved her, I hadn't even thought about it. It had flown out on its own, but it was true.I took out my phone and snapped a picture of her sleeping.A grin spread across my lips.God, she was gorgeous. I had thought sex with her for a month would have gotten her out of my system by now but the opposite was the case.It was like she was weaving these invisible webs around my heart , pulling me closer and closer like some love demon.I wondered why she was dreaming. Was she dreaming about me?She was an orphan.She had no family, no ties, at least bone that she had told me about or I had found out about. Yet, there was a deep sadness that clun

    AnnaVenice was unlike anything I had ever seen before.The moment we stepped onto the water taxi, the world around me shifted into something out of a dream. The air smelt different, being yet crisp, tinged with the scent of aged stone and the faintest hint of something sweet, like pastries cooling on windowsills.The city itself unfolded before me like a painting in motion, Buildings weathered by countries, leaned toward the canals, their faded facades kissed by the golden afternoon light. Balconies draped in the ivy and flower boxes spilled over with bursts of color. Gondolas moved gracefully through the narrow waterways, the gondoliers dressed in traditional striped shirts, pushing along with an effortless elegance.I couldn't tear my eyes away."It's... breathtaking," I murmured, barely aware I had spoken aloud.Beside me, Duncan leaned back against the seat, watching me instead of the scenery. "Venice has that effect."I turned to him, finding his gaze steady, knowing. The way he

    AnnaIt wasn't long after the phone call when Duncan stepped out of our hotel room.He was showering me with so much love. I wasn't particularly sure how a monster like him could be so gentle and awkward.I dialed Tim once again hoping the fifth time was the charm but no answer.Was he okay??It was unlike him to not answer immediately.I had asked him to follow Lily but what if he'd been compromised and had been captured.I shuddered.No,I was overthinking.He was definitely fine.I shook my head and decided to send him a text. Telling him to call me as soon as possible.I waited a couple of minutes and decided to call Sly.He picked up on the first ring.“Sly, hey. Have you heard from Tim?”I asked not to give him the chance for pleasantries. Not that it mattered. Sly didn't care for pleasantries. Only results.“No, I have not heard from him."“He's not at the precinct?”“It's his day off. Is everything okay?”“No. I sent him on a mission yesterday. He isn't picking up his call.”Sl

    AnnaLove? I couldn't believe this. I couldn't believe anything.My heart was beating in my chest and my mind was a complete mess.Duncan was in the living room talking to his men while I laid in the room, unable to sleep.I fiddled with rmthe ring in my hand. I had managed to snatch it despite my fear and what I had seen.Hallucination?There was no way that was the truth. I couldn't have hallucinated that but then again, Jean hadn't taken his drink. In fact, he'd made an effort not to.I wasn't sure what to think anymore.My head was spinning. At this point, I was going insane.Maybe Tim was right. Maybe I was playing a dangerous game and didn't know it.The door to the bedroom suite opened and Dun walked towards me.I pretended to be asleep. The last thing I wanted to do was have sex.I was too cofused, too stressed.I felt the bed dip and seconds later Duncan's hands around my waist. He pulled me closer to him and held me right. I held my breath expecting him to start caressing

    Duncan‘What were you thinking?’ I yelled at Anna, my hands shaking on the steering wheel.“I'm sorry. I didn't think ““No, you didn't. Do you have any idea who Jean is? He is dangerous. He could have ripped you apart.”I snapped, remembering who he was.Back when my father still had his pack, Jean was one of his loyal friends and he was ruthless with humans especially the female. He hated them, hell, he was one of the reasons my father had been exiled.The shock in my eyes when I had seen Anna in the cage had sent me into temporary psychosis.I had practically rode here when I realized Jean had won her.“I'm sorry.”“No, that's not enough. What were you thinking?” He asked.“Nothing.”She said, her voice shaking.“There has to be something. It's unlike you to make such a rash decision. Tell me now,”“I can't,” she admitted and began to cry, her body shaking.She looked genuinely distressed and it made my chest ache. I could feel her pain just like she could feel mine earlier and sh

    Anna“Such a beautiful woman,” the French man that had gotten the ring said as his chauffeur opened the car door of the sleek black SUV.The ring was with him. He'd transferred about three million dollars for the ring, and by the looks in his eyes, I was absolutely sure he planned on doing whatever he wanted to my body.“Thank you,” I said with a fake sultry smile as I pulled my trench coat tighter around me and slipped into the car.Now, that I was with him, all I could think about was how stupid I had reacted. This was going to raise a lot of questions.I wondered what Duncan was thinking now.He'd probably be as confused as I was.My phone vibrated as the car moved.It was Duncan calling. I silenced the call.I had to focus on stealing that ring back, but how?How was I supposed to do that without him suspecting?I felt Jean-Luc’s hand on my shoulders, and when I turned, he was grinning at me.I almost puked into my mouth. He was well into his 60s with the look of an 80-year-old.I

    AnnaA sigh escaped my lips. I was exhausted. We had gone through a total of sixteen rose velvet girls and sixteen items, and there was still more. I just wanted to rest a little bit. The crowd was having too much fun.I plucked a bottle of champagne from the collar and drank a generous amount. My mind is filled with so many questions.I had a feeling something was about to happen, but I couldn't put my finger on it yet.I was thoroughly exhausted, and the worst part? I missed Duncan and not just the sex. I was slowly getting used to having him as some kind of comfort, which weirded me out.I wanted to believe it was simply sex.Would you be able to kill him when the time comes?That tiny voice in the back of my head asked.Absolutely!I answered with confidence, but why did my heart feel anything but confident?“And for the next item…” The announcer started, and I gestured for the men to pick up the huge vase that was essentially a wolf's head, golden and made of pure gold.

    AnnaI called Tim as soon as Estonia went back to Duncan's dressing room.“Tim, I need your help.” I said as soon as he picked up.“What's wrong? Are you okay?” he asked, his voice frantic. I heard a honk from his phone and concluded he was probably outside the precinct.“No. I have a kind of friend here; her name is Lily, and, well, she was acting erratic. I'm not sure what's wrong with her, but I need you to look into her tonight. She is one of the escorts. You've seen her before, but I'll send you a picture, but before that, I need you to do something for me. I need you to follow them. I have no idea where they are going, but follow her.” I told him the name of the van and the licence plate they'd taken.“Alright, I'm on it. I'll inform some of my PIs and some patrol cops.”“Thank you, Tim!” I said.“Tim?” I heard Levi's voice behind my back, and I froze.I slowly turned around to find him staring at me, his eyes hard, his nostrils flared.The door was supposed to be closed.

    Duncan“What is it?”I questioned Estonia, annoyed by her interrupting me and Anna's time.Me and Anna's time?I couldn't believe I was calling it that now.“Not sure how to say this, Dun, but Lily is here again.”“What? I thought she was with Dr Kane?”“She was.” Estonia shrugged. “She escaped.”I sighed.“Take her back there and make sure he sedates her.”Estonia's lips thinned.“What is it?” I asked when she didn't move to leave.“Well, it seems she left a trail of bodies on her way here.”“Fucking hell. What have you done with the bodies now?” I asked.“Don't worry, it's been taken care of, but we might need to put Lily down soon. She's getting worse, more erratic, and the authorities will tie this back to us. We don't want that; it's too dangerous. The last time this happened, it took us asking the vampires to cover this shit up. We can't risk it. We need to put her down.”“Absolutely not. She can get better. Kale said so.”I stood. I was not going to put Lily down like some ani
