Anna

Alice's eyes widened.

“They were married? I knew it!” She said under her breath, her eyes shining with triumph.

There was way too much I didn't know about my mother. She was in love with a woman. If she married her best friend, then who the hell was my father?

She never talked about him. All the times I tried to talk to her about my father, she never spoke about him.

I had tried looking for him over the years but she'd not left a single trace of him. It all made sense now.

But now, there were too many questions raised.

As if noticing my internal turmoil, Alice asked, “Are you okay? You look pale.”

I was about to answer when my phone rang.

It was Duncan.

I paused, my eyes wide.

Was he back from his trip?

Why was he calling?

Panic set in, making my heart beat faster and faster.

“Are you going to get that?” Alice questioned, looking between me and my phone.

“Um… yes,” I said, standing up abruptly. “Please, can you show me to your bathroom?”

I asked.

“Of course, Hallway, first door,”

    AnnaAfter dinner, Alice disappeared for a couple of minutes while I continued to rummage through the small box. There were more pictures of my mom and Aunt Selene. Some more provocative than the next.They really loved each other. It was almost magical. I didn't believe in soulmates, but if I did, then Aunt Selene and my mother would be a prime example. I could feel their feelings for each other radiating through the almost worn-out pictures.It was morning before I knew it. I had gone through the box; I had found an old tiny passport of a man that looked vaguely familiar, but I couldn't place him.There was no other picture of him except for this one.I had no idea who he was, but finding him would get me closer to knowing my mother's past and the reason for her death.The puzzles were coming together yet so far apart. I could see the pieces, but they were missing too many other pieces that were absent, the connecting dots.“Good morning!” Alice's voice pulled me out of my reverie.

    Anna“What the hell, Anna?” Tim said as he got out from his car and pulled me into a tight hug as soon as he saw me.He looked like he'd not had a single wink of sleep, and something told me it was absolutely my fault.I hugged him back, melting into his warm embrace. I was not a big fan of hugs, but right now, not even God could pull me off Tim.This was what I needed to process all of the back-to-back insanity I had seen and been involved in last night.I had long since forgotten how to cry. This was me crying.In the space of twelve hours, I had walked into a murder crime scene, been chased by mobs and found out my mother was secretly fucking gay.I was not okay.“Hey, you okay? You are shaking, Tim asked as he caressed my face. I held him for longer before nodding.“Yes, I think I'm fine now,” I sighed, my heartbeat returning to normal.He stroked my hair, and we stood like that for what felt like minutes.The sound of someone clearing their throat reminded me that Alice was stil

    Duncan I grabbed Anna into the room and slammed her against the door, my nose flared in anger.“Where were you?”I growled my hands on either side of her face as I assessed her. I took in her scent and grunted. I hadn't seen her in days and the only thing on my mind was to have her but at the same time, I was angry. “I told you I was at my friends…”“Bullshit.” I spat, restraining myself from kissing her full luscious lips.“I swear.”“Why did you turn off your phone then?”“Because you were being controlling.” She snapped at me. My cock twitched. Her feistiness always turned me on ín the worst ways.“And you were being stubborn,” I grabbed her face, her lips puckering up as she stared up at me. There was absolutely desire in her eyes.She wanted to be here.Fuck. What was it about her that made her so hard to resist. I had a completely different plan in mind for when she came back but now all I wanted was to devour and make her cum.“This is ridiculous. I just went out for a cou

    AnnaI was completely spent and my entire body ached deliciously. I shifted in my bed and didn't find Duncan on the bed.I had fallen asleep after the rigorous sex we had.“Hmmm.,” I moaned as I sat up.Was he out?If he was then this was the perfect time to Snoop around again to find me any other clue.I quickly got out of bed and moaned at the soreness between my legs. He'd fucked me so good earlier that my pussy was throbbing now with pure anticipation.I wanted more.The images of all of the dirty things done flooded my mind as I put on my thongs.I didn't care how wrong this was anymore.How was I supposed to resist a man like Duncan?I put on my dress and began to go around the room. I started with the dresser where I had found those names. The documents were no longer there.I opened the first drawer, and all I found were neatly packaged ties. The second drawer was socks, and the third was a few stationery items, like pens, sticky notes and highlighters.I sighed and looked a

    AnnaI was dressed in a simple gown that hugged all my curves.We were going to Rose velvet and I knew who I was going to see.Viktor.It was time I lured him into my trap. The only problem was Duncan.He'd told me to stay away from any man whatsoever.I was starting to hate how attracted I was to him now. I knew it was simply sex, but it was still too much attraction. I had never wanted anybody as much as I wanted him. It was such a surreal feeling.The way he handled my body like he knew every inch of me.A sigh escaped my lips and I made my way out of the room.Duncan was in the car talking on the phone in a language I wasn't familiar with.I slipped in beside him. He glanced at me and to my surprise, he grinned and the kissed my neck before going back to his call.I bit my lips. What the fuck was that about?He'd never done that outside of sex.I touched the part he had kissed, and I bit my lips at the tingling sensation.He suddenly grabbed my thighs with his powerful hands and g

    AnnaSexy, assertive and also plays hard to get.All these were what a man like Viktor wanted in a woman.Perfect.I had all of the qualities. All I had to do was act.I made my way out of Estonia's office and went to the store room, passing a couple of girls that were getting ready to dance.They were so beautiful, it made no sense.They sure knew how to pick their women, and why were they all so tall?Once I finished taking the stocks from the storeroom, I plopped down on a wooden chair, completely exhausted.I looked around the place. Everything here was worth at least billions in auction.Rich people were insane.I was so tired.Duncan was probably still inspecting the place.Which reminded me. Where the hell were Lily and that Sabrina bitch. I hadn't seen them when I had come in.I took out my phone and decided to text her.Me: Hey, where are you?She didn't text back immediately.I was a little worried but I figured she was probably busy with some rich man, doing her actual job.

    AnnaLater that night, I was at a cafe with Tim.He was dressed in a more ridiculous disguise these times.He was wearing a wig and blue contacts.He looked like some kind of Karen with a bad dye job.The music was loud and there were several people in attendance. It was an exclusive kind of bar that Tim had somehow gotten access to.“Ava!” Tim’s voice took me out of my reverie.Ever since I had seen that forbidden red room, I had not been able to stop thinking about it.Those chains had been huge!“I'm sorry. I was just thinking.”Tim rolled his eyes.“There's definitely supernatural power at play here…I rolled my eyes.When I told Tim some of the odd things I had been noticing in the mansion and Red Rose, he'd looked me dead in the eyes and told me they were vampires or shifters.“Shut up, Tim, and be serious for once. Duncan is not a vampire.”“Then how do you explain the basement or the chains?”Tim had always believed in the supernatural. In fact, ever since we met, he'd told me

    Anna “What are you doing here?’ I asked, dropping my bag on the floor.He was shirtless.“You are late. It's 9:22pm,” he said.Is it?I could have sworn I was only a few minutes late. Did something happen to my watch?It was a different time.“I'm sorry, I needed some air…”I bit my lips, his presence making me shiver in both anticipation.I could already feel my nipple harden just from him looking at me.His presence was so raw, it made me feel needy for his touch.It was weird how, after countless nights of sex with him, I wasn't over it.“You smell like you were around a lot of people.”“I was at a bar.” He rose from the bed with grace and prowled towards me with a lazy stride.My pulse thrummed; he was so hot. The way his body moved, I wanted him…“A bar, huh?” He asked, stepping closer and closer.My back hit the door frame.He captured my chin, forcing me to look up at him.“Do you know how long I have been waiting for you?” He asked.“Uh, twenty-two minutes?” I answered, tryi

    Chapter 86Anna The soft lapping of water against stone echoed beneath the wooden planks of the dock as I stepped into the gondola, Duncan's hand steadying me. The scent of saltwater mixed with old stone and something sweet, like vanilla and citrus, wafted through the air. Venice was even more enchanting than I imagined during the day.“Careful,” Duncan murmured, guiding me to sit. “Wouldn't want my fiancée taking a dip in the canal.”I sighed. Even though it was just a joke, it annoyed me and made me feel stupid – shit that I had no business feeling."What?" He said, settling beside me with that smug boyish grin that I barely ever saw. "Is it too early for an enhancement?" "Too false," I replied, turning my face away so he wouldn't see the way I smiled despite myself.I was playing a dangerous game when I should have been focused.The gondolier pushed off with a soft grunt, and we began gliding through the narrow, winding waterway of Venice.

    Chapter 85AnnaAs I walked towards the elevator beside Duncan, who was on a call talking to one of his men, I couldn't help but worry about Tim. I had called him earlier, and still no answer. No answer from Sly either.Had I somehow sent them to their death without knowing?No, I was being dramatic. I just needed to wait till evening and then call again.I'm sure they'd be available then. But why was my stomach still tightening? Why did I feel like I had done something terribly wrong?I felt Duncan's hand wrap around mine as he pulled me into the elevator. The door closed behind me, and he glanced at me.“What are you thinking about, Anna?”I glanced up at him and forced a smile on my face. “Nothing,” I cleared my throat. “Just tired, still a bit jetlagged”,“Hmmm. Maybe we should go back in, and you can get some more sleep.”I scoffed, “We both know I won't be doing much sleeping if I go back in.”Duncan chuckled as he pulled me into his arms. “I don't need the confines of a hotel r

    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.
