NAYA'S POVI stood by the door of Rowan's room, as I watched as the doctor treated him. Henry had driven us back to his house and the man he had asked Henry to call, Anthony, showed up. It turned out that he was a doctor. Rowan had a doctor who could come treat him in his house so he did not need to go to the hospital. I was relieved, knowing that he would actually be getting the treatment that he needed. There was a solemn look on my face because this had happened because of me. I did not plan things out well and provoked Sophie too early. I should have waited and made sure that she won't be able to retaliate before I did anything. But this has already happened so I had no other choice I had to go with the flow and think of how to put an end to this as soon as possible. She had already exposed who she truly was and so she won't bother to pretend to be my friend anymore. "I have already removed the bullet but your arm is going to hurt a lot for the next few days. You should try
NAYA"But we talked about this! You said that I had a week!" I complained. "And I take that back. I am not giving you a week anymore. You almost got kidnapped and shot. Who knows what will happen next time? Will I come back to your dead body?" Rowan sneered at me. "They won't be able to do that to me. I just miscalculated today. I thought that it would be a while before Sophie would show her true self but she could not take it anymore. Anyway, now that she already exposed herself, she won't dare to come close to me!" I said. I knew Sophie, and I knew that she was a pathetic coward. When she encountered a situation, instead of her to stay and deal with it like everyone else, she would run away. So for now, she won't dare to come close to me at all. "I don't care. All that I know is that I am not letting you go back. I will be able to keep an eye on you if you are here. They also won't be able to get into this place," Rowan insisted. I looked at Rowan. He was not backing down. I s
LIAMI was in my house, brooding. There was a glass of brandy in my hand but I had not taken a sip from it. I was thinking about Naya and how she had double crossed me. I was sure that she had actually given me her blood, but she gave me the blood of someone else. How could she do that to me? I was nice to her a few days before I asked her for the blood. I made sure that I treated her well. She wanted to be treated like some pampered princess and I did that for her As if that was not enough, I waited on her hand and foot. And I even took her to a nice dinner. I told her that my sister was in an accident, she should have wanted to help save my sister's life, right? So why did she double cross me? Why did she give me the blood of someone else? Since this did not work out, it would be even more impossible to trick her in the future. How was I supposed to get the blood out of her? Just then, my door was pushed open and Sophie rushed up to me, looking all disheveled. I almost rolled my
LIAMSophie bowed her head and started to cry but this just irritated me even more. What was she crying for? I did not understand it. She was the one who caused this issue and she was crying? "What are you crying for? Do you think that crying is going to solve this situation? What if he comes after you? Or what if he sues you for attempted murder?" I asked her. If she was sued, I would abandon her immediately. I wouldn't want to be a part of that. My relationship with her had been fun and she knew how to give good sex but there was no way that I would jeopardize the rest of my life just for some good sex. I could get sex from any woman out there. "I am just worried. I don't know what to do. And Naya...what if she tells him to come after me because of this? He may not want to do anything to me but she could push him to. I swear to God that she hates me and she always wants to see me doing badly than she is doing. Do you think that you can talk to her and get her to get that man to
"I can feel a pull to his wolf!" Elisa said. My mind almost went blank with this information from her. How could that be possible?. How could she feel a pull to his wolf when he was just a human?"Are you sure?" I communicated with Elisa silently. "Yes. I have never felt it before which means that he was hiding it. He's a shifter!" She said, I looked at Rowan who was lying on the bed, his eyes shut tightly. He looked a bit weak, and I actually felt the pull to his wolf too. Elisa was right. Rowan is a shifter. But why did he not tell me anything about it? Why did he hide it from me? Did he know that I was....."What is he hiding, Naya? Why didn't he tell you about this before? We need to get to the bottom of this and find out just what exactly he is trying to hide" she said to me. I shook my head. "No. We aren't going to do that," Rowan still had his eyes closed and so he did not notice all of this. "What why?" Elisa asked me but I just ignored her. "Well, I'll be going to bed.
NAYAMy mind was brought back to the present when Elisa reminded me of this. Rowan was indeed a shifter. I had felt his wolf and Elisa had felt the pull of his wolf too. But why had he not told me anything about it? I knew that a new I was a wolf because I did not hide my scent. Another wolf could definitely sense that I was a wolf as soon as they came close to me. So Rowan knew all this time. But he did not say anything. "I don't know. I am sure that he has a reason for keeping it away from me," I said. "What kind of reason could he have not to tell you something this important? And he had definitely been hiding his wolf scent. So he knows that you are a wolf too. Why did he not anything to you? Can't you see that he is trying to hide something Naya? " Elisa asked me urgently. "I really don't think that he is trying to hide anything. He probably has his own reason. Anyway since he doesn't want to talk about it I think that we should leave it alone" I said. I was not going to pu
NAYA"Then, we need to find out who is really close to Liam among all the people around your father. I am sure that the person closest to Liam is the one who poisoned your father," Elisa suggested. I shook my head. That was not going to work. "No...that is not going to work. Almost all of them are close to Liam. I can't suspect everybody, can I? I was the one who told them that I loved Liam and that I would marry him at all costs so they all immediately accepted him. It won't be easy to find out the culprit that way," I said. I felt foolish when I thought about all of the things that I had done for Liam in my past life. I was so in love with him, so much so that even when my father told me that I had to be careful with him, I ignored what he said and continued to be an idiot for Liam. He must have thought that I was so foolish, playing into his traps so easily.Elisa sneered at this. "Of course. You were so in love with Liam that you had no idea what you were doing. Of course, yo
ROWANNaya's eyes had not left me ever since we started eating and I could see that something was going on. What was going on in her head?!"You can say whatever you want to say. You know that it is creepy when you just stare at me like that right?" I asked her. She cleared her throat. "Well, I know you're still upset over what happened yesterday but I wanted to tell you something. I have to leave the city for a few days. I plan on going to..." "No!" I said firmly. I did not need to hear whatever else she had to say. I would not be letting her out of my sight. I didn't need a dead wife. "Hey. You can't just say no. You haven't even heard what I am about to say yet!" She complained. I did not plan on changing my stance. I was not going to let her go and I did not need to hear anything. "You can as well forget about it because there is no way that I am letting you leave the city all on your own , after what had just happened. Seriously Naya, don't you value your life?" I asked her
ROWAN Jessica handed the phone over to me with shaking hands. "I....I called him. He told me that he's going to be here soon. Are you happy now?" Jessica asked me. I nodded my head. "Yes. I am very happy. You know ...you really didn't need to do all of this. You should have just left Naya alone!" I told Jessica. "You....you have no idea how much I love you! Despite how many times you trample on the feelings that I have for you, I refuse to care about it. I just want to be with you. And yet you treat me like this! You even dared to kidnap me! Let me just make it clear to you, Rowan. You are never going to get Naya back. You are going to find out that you're making a big mistake. The King will never let you take the only person who can save the life of his daughter!" Jessica told me.I rolled my eyes at her. "Do you really think that I care about whoever you are working for? It's none of my busines, and it would have been great as long as you had left my wife out of it. You only h
NAYA I lay on the bed weakly as I watched my blood being made into an antidote for the so called princess. She had looked weak when she first walked in, but now that she had taken the antidote, she looked a whole lot better. The princess smiled at Liam. "Thank you so much for saving my life, Liam. I really don't know what I would have done without you. If it wasn't for your efforts all of these years, I am sure that I would have died a long time ago. I am really really happy that I have you in my life!" She said.I wanted to throw up when I heard this. I had never felt this disgusted in my life before. Liam had a sweet smile on his face, and he looked like he was happy to be doing this. I was shaking in anger as I watched him. How dare this person?! He was using my blood to appease someone else! I noticed that Liam had never looked at me the way that he was looking at the princess. He had never been nice to me. I was sure that he did not treat even Sophie in this way. Was this
ROWAN"Are you sure that she is in here?" I turned to ask Sophie. We were standing in front of a house that was in the middle of nowhere. It was an old neighborhood and I was sure that they were less than ten people who lived here. The people who lived here were also probably extremely old and so even if anything had been going on, I was sure that they won't have been able to notice. Sophie nodded her head"Yes. Do you think that I am lying? I did what you asked me to do. I followed him and this was where he came to," Sophie said. I glanced at Henry and he walked with me into the house. I was about to walk in when Sophie grabbed my arm. "Hey where do you think you are going? We aren't done talking here. You said that you are going to pay me a hundred thousand dollars as long as I got the information on where she lived for you. I did that. When are you paying me?" Sophie asked me. "We haven't found Naya yet. As soon as we find her, I am going to give you your money!" I told her f
NAYA The door was pushed open and my eyes flew open immediately. "Who is there? Jessica? You are back? Let me out of here. Let me go as soon as possible. You are not going to get away with doing this. You are going to regret ever don't this to me. Let me go if you know what's good for you!" I snapped at her. When she didn't reply me, I continued. "Rowan is going to find you, and he is going to make sure that you pay for doing this to me. Don't think that you can get away with this. Even if you keep me here for the rest of my life or even kill me, he's never going to look at you. He doesn't love you. Why is it so hard for you to understand that? I am the one that he loves! Only me!" I stated. "Oh really? You are the only one that Rowan loves? Are you sure about that? Are you really so confident about his feelings for you?" I heard a familiar voice ask me just then. I would recognize that voice even if I was dead. The voice that had haunted me in both lifetimes..Liam! Liam was he
LIAM"What? You went out to meet with him? Are you stupid?!" I yelled at Jessica over the phone. "Well, Rowan called me and he told me that he wanted to see me. He even booked a table at a restaurant. I thought that he had come back to his senses and he had seen that I was the better choice for him. But when I got there, all he did was talk about Naya. I think he knows that I am the one who kidnapped her, but he doesn't have any proof at all. He even knows that I met with yon. What am I going to do?" Jessica asked me. She sounded like she was panicking. .I just rolled my eyes. I had no idea why I was surrounded by all of these dumb women. I thought that Sophie was the worst that I would have to deal with and that since Jessica worked for the King, she would be smart at least. But once it involved the man that she was interested in, she had no brains. She was just so fucking stupid! "Do you really think that he'd come running back to your arms a day after Naya went missing? You
ROWAN "Are you sure that Jessica is working for the Alpha? If she's the one working for him then...it means that she's the one who has been spying on us. When she came here and said that she wanted to take care of you that time ..it was because she wanted to spy on you," Henry said to me. Sophie was gone now. It didn't take much for me to persuade her to find out where Liam had taken Naya. "Yes. I am sure of it. She's definitely working for that person. She has been working for him for a really long time, I am sure. If Liam is talking to her about him then it means that they both know him," I said."Then what are you going to do now? Are you sure that it's a good idea to meet with her? I don't think that she's going to give anything away if she's really working for him," Henry said. I shook my head. "I have to try. I know that she won't tell me the truth but I have to meet her and ask her and see if she's going to let anything slip. I asked Sophie to find out from Liam where Naya
ROWAN"I don't deny that she was good to me while we were best friends, but how am I supposed to make a living if I don't have any money? I can't take chances, Rowan. I need to survive. You will never know how hard it is for me to survive. I don't want to beat around the bush with you. So are you going to give me the money or not?" She asked me. "Fine. I will give it to you. And don't think about playing tricks with me, Sophie. Because there are many ways I can get this money back from you. And I don't think that you are going to survive what I do to get the money back if you play me," I warned her. "Don't worry about it, Rowan. I may be a terrible person but I am very honest when it comes to doing business. Besides, I don't want to die. I need to be alive to spend the money," she stated. I brought out my bank book and I wrote her a cheque. Sophie snatched it away from me. She gasped when she saw the price that was written on it. They were literally dollar signs falling out of h
ROWANI turned to Henry. "What do you mean you still can't find her? It's not as if she disappeared off the face of the Earth? Why can't you find her?" I yelled at him. A whole day had passed since Naya had not returned home. At first, Henry had said that she was going out to meet a friend, but then she didn't come back yesterday and we still can't find her today. I was really worried now. Had Liam gotten to her? Did he kidnap her all because of her blood? "Did you find out what Liam did yesterday?" I asked Henry. He nodded his head. "Yes. The person that we had watching him said that he didn't leave his house much yesterday. He went out to meet with the Alpha of the Crescent Moon Pack but that was just it. He didn't go anywhere else and he came back home immediately. I don't think he has anything to do with this," Henry said. I sneered at him. "Are you stupid?! Even if he didn't do anything, then he must have had someone do it for him! He must have told someone to kidnap her!
SOPHIEI gasped when I heard this. Was Liam saying that they had kidnapped Naya? I had no idea who that Jessica person was but from Liam's words, they had worked together to kidnap Naya. Liam ended the call and he burst out laughing. I quickly shut the door and started to pace around the bedroom, thinking of what to do. I did not want Liam to know that I had heard what he was talking about. I knew that he was an extremely cold man and if he taught that I knew a secret then he was going to do something to hurt me. I didn't want to die in Liam's hands. I just wanted to be able to survive. Just then the door was pushed open and Liam walked in. I turned to face him and we came face to face with each other. There was a menacing look on his face when he saw me and he looked like he wanted to just triangle it to death and be done with it "What the heck are you doing here Sophie? I thought I have told you that I don't want to see you in my house? and how were you even able to get in
