CHAPTER 30Kaden’s POVI was in Alpha Tobias office discussing with him when the door slammed open so hard with force.Kieran walked in angrily, his face filled with rage.Alpha Tobias looked up at him and sighed deeply while rubbing his forehead like he was already exhausted from whatever Kieran was hear to say. Kieran glared at me before facing Alpha Tobias. "You have to do something about them!" Kieran yelled as he slammed his hands on the desk.Alpha Tobias raised an eyebrow, clearly unimpressed. "Do something about what?""Cora! And this guy here!" Kieran growled and I tried my best not to laugh at the bandage wrapped around his head, and the plaster placed on his nose.Alpha Tobias groaned, showing just how frustrated he was. "What did they do?""They’re sneaking around under my roof!"I chuckled and then smirked.Kieran’s eyes were filled with fury as he turned towards me. "You are laughing huh?!"I shrugged. "Should I be crying?"Alpha Tobias sighed scratching his head. "A
CHAPTER 31Cora’s POV"Alright, enough standing around looking dramatic... Let's go Cora! I have a surprise for you!" Selene announced grabbing my wrist and dragging me to the car. We all entered the car while Kaden drove us to the house gifted to him by Alpha Tobias.When we arrived, I couldn't help the gasp that escaped my lips. It was a mansion and it was beautiful. Extremely beautiful and even the exterior looked homely, unlike the dungeon I had just returned from.Though the alpha had gifted him a house, Kaden had refused servants in the house so it was only going to be Selene, Ronan, Kaden and I living in this house and I was thoroughly glad with that arrangement. We were here for revenge so we didn't need any prying ears lurking around the house.The privacy was just perfect."You have to see your room. I personally handled everything, so prepare to be amazed." Selene said dragging me into the mansion."Yeah.. prepare to be traumatized." Ronan snorted as he followed behind.
CHAPTER 32Kaden’s POV"This is absolutely ridiculous." I muttered under my breath as I laid on my back staring up at the ceiling of my dark room. My arms were folded behind my head and no matter how many times I turned or adjusted my position.. I just couldn’t get comfortable. I felt restless.. completely unable to relax as if something inside me refused to settle.Cora's room was just opposite mine.And she was Alone.She was probably curled up under the blankets.. her soft body pressed into the mattress as she sleeps.I groaned squeezing my eyes shut and trying so hard not to get hard.Fuck!I wasn’t some teenage boy who couldn’t control himself. I was a full grown man who was fully capable of control. And yet just at the thought of her lying on her bed and probably wearing whatever the hell she was sleeping in.. my whole body was screaming for her and my control seemed to have flown out the window."Shit."And the worse part?My wolf was making it worse.'Go to her. She’s ours.
CHAPTER 33 Cora’s POVI woke up feeling… strange.Warm.Like someone had been beside me.I frowned.. my fingers curling over the sheets as I turned my head looking around my empty room. I swore I felt someone there.My heart thumped in my chest as I inhaled slowly. I could smell his scent here.Cedar. Kaden.My stomach flipped. Had he been here?In my room?I swallowed.. pushing the covers off of me and getting to my feet. My hands were still tingling like they had touched him in my sleep.Did I dream it?I shook my head. No.. it had felt real.Without thinking I stepped into the hallway and made my way toward Kaden’s room. I knocked once.Then twice.Then thrice.And when no one answered me, I twisted the door knob.. but it was locked.I frowned.Where was Kaden?I turned on my heel and made my way down the stairs towards the living room until I could hear the annoying sound of bickering coming from the kitchen.And unsurprisingly.. there they were.Selene and Ronan.At it again
CHAPTER 34Cora’s POVJust as I was enjoying Ronan and Selene’s ridiculous banter , a loud aggressive knock shook the front door."Who the hell is knocking like they’re here to collect a debt?" Selene muttered, a slight frown on her face."Maybe it’s Kieran. Come to cry about his miserable life." Ronan replied looking completely unbothered. "If it is, I’m throwing my fork at his face." Selena snorted. "I’ll get it." I said shaking her head."Be careful. If it’s your psycho ex-husband, I’m punching someone." Selene said and I chuckled."Eh. Let them in. We could use some free entertainment." Ronan said.With a sigh, I walked to the door and pulled it open.And there they were.Vivienne and Vanessa.I rolled my eyes just as the sight of them.Vivienne stood in her usual fake elegant posture and her lips curled into what was supposed to be a warm smile but her eyes had a glimpse of malice.Vanessa was beside her, her expression was full of forced sweetness."Cora, darling. We’ve been l
CHAPTER 35Kaden’s POVThe entire trip to Adam’s house felt off.I couldn’t shake it, it just felt off.Something screamed at me to stop Cora from going on with her plan but she was determined.As I drove the car, my hands clenched on the steering.. my eyes scanning the dense forest paths leading to Adam's house.Ronan was at the passenger's seat with me while Selene and Cora were at the back seat."Are we really doing this?" Ronan whispered to me and I sighed."I guess so.""I'm not feeling good about this." Ronan said, a slight frown on his face.I took a quick glance at Cora and could see that she was lost in thoughts and had covered her eyes with her earpiece."Me either." Selene replied.Selene and Ronan, even with their usual playfully they could feel it too.Why wasn't she feeling it also?Why does she looked calm. Way too calm like she wasn’t walking into the lion’s den.Like she wasn’t about to face the very people who had made her life hell."Cora. Cora." I called for her. S
CHAPTER 36 3rd POV - Vivienne and VanessaAdam's house...Vivienne and Vanessa sat on the living room.. each holding a glass of wine as they awaited Cora's visit.Vivienne slowly swirled the wine in her glass a deep smirk on her face."I must say, I didn’t expect her to agree so easily.." she mused. "Either she’s gotten stupider over the months she was away, or she still has that foolish hope that people like us can change." "It’s pathetic. She’s always been so desperate for approval. She probably thinks Father actually wants to see her.. She really is hopeless." Vanessa snorted as she crossed her legs while playing with her little finger."That’s what makes this so much fun. She’s walking into a den of vipers, thinking she’ll find warmth. And the best part? She won’t even realize it until it’s too late." Vivienne smirked , her eyes filled with evil doings."I hope you’re not planning on just guilt-tripping her Mother. That’s boring. We need to make her pay properly." Vanessa said.
CHAPTER 37Cora’s POVWe arrived at my father’s house, and Kaden drove the car straight in without stopping or hesitating. The moment I stepped out of the car, my eyes scanned the place that had once been like a prison to me. Selene and Ronan joined me while Kaden pulled my closer to him reminding me that I was not alone in this.And then.. just right on time; Vivienne and Vanessa came out through the big front door.The very moment their eyes landed on me.. their lips stretched into fake wide smiles. But when they saw the three people standing next to me, their smiles depreciated immediately.Vivienne quickly masked it with an expression that was sweet and fake. "What are they doing here?" she asked, walking towards me and trying to sound calm but failing.I shrugged. "They are my family, so of course, they are invited to come with me.""Of course. Of course. Come in." she said, pretending that she was not angry, her voice sounded way too sweet that one could tell it was clearly f

CHAPTER 29Cora’s POVBy the time I walked back to my room, the last thing I expected was to see Kaden lying comfortably on my bed like he had every right to be there.I gasped, quite shocked, my eyes widening in surprise. "I thought you had left." Kaden shook his head while he stretched his body lazily on the bed, his dark eyes filled with mischief."Nah... I didn’t leave. I was still around. Just waiting." He said smoothly."Waiting for what?" I asked, raising a brow. "You know what." He said lazily, placing his hand underneath his head.I shook my head slightly as I walked past him , pretending not to be affected by sight before me. Him sprawled on my bed, relaxing while shirtless."So..?" he raised a brow, watching me, expecting my answer. "So... what?" I asked, frowning as I stared at him, pretending to understand what he was saying when in reality I was trying so hard not to stare at his hard rock chest.Gosh...Kaden smirked, as if knowing just how much his shirtless figu
