LIAMI didn't have the connection yet but I knew he was the one. He was pissed that I had taken away his position and given it to Harold. He sent his people to try to kill me."Are you sure?" Maxine asked. I could see the doubt written all over her face."Well, no. But new information will be coming in tomorrow. So, hopefully, they found the culprit and can bring him to book." I said.She nodded. "Okay." She replied. She stretched, yawning. "About Nick…" she began."No," I replied, not bothering to hear what she had to say. Knowing Maxine, she was about to ask for a favor. She probably wanted me to release Nick. But I wasn't done with him. I needed to find the rest of his people."You didn't even hear what I had to say," she complained.I quirked my brows at her. She caught herself and straightened. We were not that casual. She was acting too comfortable.I frowned. This was the problem. I forgot about who she was to me. I stood to my feet, surprising her."Lock your doors," I said he

MAXINE I thought Tobias claimed that he wasn't cheating. What is he doing so intimately with another woman? And she looked rich and fancy. I watched as the car drove away taking them with it and I wondered if I should tell Ella about it. I decided that I was going to approach Tobias instead and find out about it. I couldn't get it off my mind even after I had entered my apartment and taken a shower. It had somehow managed to push Nick out of my mind. Tobias cheating on Ella was one of the most shocking things of the century. The next day, unable to resist the urge, I went to Ella and Tobias’ house real early. I wanted to catch him right as he was going to work. I waited in front of his neighbors for him to come out. I didn't want him to see me before I wanted him to. I hide in the bush, crouching and waiting quietly. The moment he stepped out of his house and walked past where I was hiding, I jumped him and grabbed his arm. "Yikes, Maxine, you startled me," he said, jumpi

MAXINEAs I reached the packed hospital, I saw a crowd gathered in front. I slowed down, grabbing the handle of my bag tightly as I approached.People were murmuring. There were lines of police tape in front of the building, blocking the entrance. There were two barricades in front, preventing people from pressing forward."What's happening?" I asked, in confusion. Most of the people outside were workers at the hospital. Where were the patients?"The mayor shut down the hospital. All the patients have been transferred to another hospital." A stranger said."What?" I asked. "Why? They can't just close the hospital."My old friends, Nancy and Katelyn spotted me and they waved me over. I pushed through the crowd going to them."Why are they closing the hospital?" I asked, hoping that one of them could give me more information on it."I heard that they want to demolish it to build a theme park on the land. The mayor approved the demolition." Nancy replied."They would destroy a hospital f

MAXINEI stood at the kitchen counter, chopping carrots for the soup I was making when Liam made the announcement, immediately drawing my attention."What did you just say?" I asked, the knife hovering above the cutting board as I paused."You need a job. I'm telling you I can give you one at the pack house." He repeated.The offer was unexpected, but not entirely surprising given our peculiar relationship. He was the alpha of the pack, and I worked as a nurse's assistant at the hospital that was now facing closure."The hospital..." I began, unsure how to start. I wanted to come up with some excuse why I couldn't. But I needed a new job."Okay. I guess I could use a change." I agreed.Liam's expression softened, and he nodded. "Good. You can start anytime. I'll finalize everything tomorrow." He saidI found myself nodding. "Okay. I'll do it," I replied, trying to sound more confident than I felt.***It took two more days before I got the courage to leave my house and go to the pack

MAXINEAfter the chaos yesterday, I was exhausted and I went home to rest. The next day, I knocked lightly on Lindsey's door, a tray of freshly baked cookies balanced carefully in my hands. It was my off day and I decided to spend it playing with Marie.The door opened, revealing Lindsey's bright smile as she greeted me warmly. "Hey Maxine, come on in!" Lindsey said, stepping aside to let me enter."Hi, Lindsey. I thought I'd drop by with some treats. It's my day off, and I thought I could keep you and Marie company," I explained, holding up the tray of cookies.Lindsey's expression lit up with gratitude. "That's so kind of you. Marie will be thrilled. She's been talking about you since the last time she saw you."I followed Lindsey into the cozy living room where Marie was playing with her toys. Marie's eyes widened with excitement as she spotted me."Maxine!" Marie exclaimed, running over and wrapping her arms around my legs."Hey there, Marie. How are you today?" I asked, smiling d

MAXINEElla was startled, immediately clutching her stomach. She dropped the bags of groceries in the process."Oh, my!" She exclaimed.We looked in the direction of the crash and saw a car, slammed into the side of a building. People were screaming. Without hesitation, I dropped my bags near Ella and told her to wait.I ran towards the accident and checked who was in the car. "Nadia!" I screamed, seeing her in the passenger seat.She was passed out. I tried to unlock the door but it wouldn't give way. "Help me!" I screamed."Out of the way." A man said. He turned his elbow to the car and smashed the window.He wrapped a shirt around his hand and swiped his arm on the glass to break off pointy ones at the bottom of the window. He reached into the car and unlocked it, removing Nadia's seat belt and taking her out.He carried her to the sidewalk, away from the car. I immediately began to check her vitals. She was good but she was only unconscious.I tapped her cheek lightly. "Nadia, Nad

MAXINEI woke up right as the day dawned. I got ready for work and it was when I got to the pack house that I felt the unsettling tension in every corner.The news of the recent fights between werewolves and humans had spread like wildfire. Rumours were spreading around casting a quiet shadow over the usually vibrant pack house.I walked through the occupied lobby, navigating my way to my office floor. The usual bustle was replaced by hushed conversations and glances exchanged between pack members.I felt the weight of anxiety settles in my chest. Pack members had heard of reports of human deaths as well as werewolf fatalities.I could sense the fear in the air. As I walked towards my office, I caught some of them huddled together, talking in whispers.I got to work, ordering Liam's schedule and finishing up paperwork from the day before. As I was finishing up, there was a knock on my door."Come in," I said. Liam entered, holding a few documents."Maxine, good morning. Could you che

MAXINEI swallowed. War was not an easy thing. There was always loss on both ends. Liam must have sensed my worry because he placed his hand on my shoulder."You should head back home," he suggested. "We'll take care of everything for you."I nodded. "You're right." I agreed. "Goodbye. Take care."As I left the pack house, I realized how much I needed a moment of normalcy. Nadia, my former colleague and friend, had been through so much recently, especially after the accident that had left her hospitalized for two days.She had gotten a concussion and she had decided to relax at the hospital while she healed. I had witnessed the crash, rushing to her aid and helping to pull her from the wreckage.I walked over to Nadia's small apartment, nestled somewhere in a quiet corner of town. I knocked on her door and when she unlocked it slightly to check who it was, she smiled."Maxine!" She greeted me with a warm smile. Although it didn't quite reach her eyes, I smiled back."Hey, Nadia.
