Jace's POV

I stood in one of the living rooms, listening to Ian speak to Edith with utmost respect and admiration.

I was astonished because the Ian I had met today and the one I had heard about in stories was brutal and very unfriendly in a serious way. But now, the Ian I was witnessing was nothing like that.

He sat opposite her on a couch while his mate stood behind him.

I stood opposite them with Harvey and Lillian, a little further away.

"If you don't mind me asking, Salfori, you run mines of rare gems, right? Not only that, you know all the secrets of the coven that can sell at a higher price. You are an immortal trillionaire who is secretive and tries to make sure only a few know about it. Am I right?" he asked as I raised a brow and looked at her in disbelief.

What!

Edith lived in a small cottage! At least that's what Harvey told me. How could she be that rich? Richer than me, Glen, or even Ian himself!

I, too, was very wealthy, but I never passed on the opportunity to acquire

    Glen's POVI couldn't drop my business smile even when I was feeling agitated, uneasy, and very uncomfortable. Dominic was also trying to reason with himself about whether to go and find that dumb cleaner or to continue with the fundraising party.We had never felt like this before, and it was really taking all of us to just keep our masks on."You," Alpha Ian called from behind me.I quickly turned and looked at him."As I said, I will overlook everything that happened today. Our kind got along with most supernatural beings, but never with those that breathe fire or drink blood, so be careful of who you bring around us," he said as I nodded."Of course, I'll be very careful from now on," I answered and then watched as he went to join his family.It was no secret that vampires were our mortal enemies. That's why our kind was very uncomfortable with them. Those who were usually invited to my parties were the most trusted ones, like Felix. She was a part of Ian's family, and what made

    Glen's POV"I'm really sorry for what I said before. I was a jerk because I thought you were just a mere human. Please date me with the thought of marriage," I said to myself in my parked car while looking in the rearview mirror."No, that won't move her," I whispered and then smiled nicely."I have liked you for the longest time because you are my mate. What happened at the party today made me take your side because of how I feel towards you. I pray and hope you feel the same because if you don't, it will break my heart. All those harsh words I said to you were spoken out of fear and confusion," I said, then cursed at myself and looked at the bunch of roses that were on the seat next to mine."How do we make it work, Dominic?" I asked in a whisper.He, too, was in disbelief about what we had heard from Jace, but not very shocked."And why aren't you shocked?" I asked seriously."I had an idea she was not a mere human the time I took over at the office. What I didn't know was what she

    Harley's POV"Miss," an elderly voice called.I blinked and then rubbed my eyes, waking up from my sleep.An elderly man stood in front of me."This is our last stop," he said as I quickly sat upright and looked around.I was on a bus and the only one besides him."I'm sorry, but where am I?" I asked seriously."We are in a country ...""Country! Did you just say country? How did I end up here? The last thing I remember was making a phone call in a booth to my friend Molly," I said in nearly a scream."Miss, you boarded the bus like the rest of the passengers and rested most of the time," he answered."That's impossible. No, how long will it take for me to go back to where I boarded from?" I asked loudly."A week," he answered.I sprang from my seat with my mouth wide open."What? A week!" I exclaimed."Miss, I don't understand why you are reacting like this. But you boarded the bus knowing very well it was going to another country, and you took breaks like everyone else for a few ho

    Harley's POV"Sir," I called and held my breath when he raised a brow.There was something about him that was just different and a lot dreamy."I know I messed up at work, but I didn't mean to run away. Also, as you made it clear to me, I have done my best to stay away from you and never appear in front of you. I also apologize for mmm...."I cut my words short in shock when his lips brushed against mine. My eyes widened, and my heart was beating crazily.When I felt his tongue trace my lips, I quickly took a step back, which he reluctantly allowed."What do you think you are doing, Glen!" I screamed in shock.He chuckled softly and then moved at a quick pace, standing in front of me.Before I could warn him off, I was swept off my feet and carried on his shoulder."What the hell are you doing!" I screamed as he walked, ignoring my question.What the hell was he doing? Was this his way of punishment?When he put me down, I quickly looked at him furiously."What do you think you are do

    Sky's POVSeeing our mate laugh and freely enjoy the ride made both me and my wolf very happy. She was perfect and very beautiful, just like we had always imagined. For years, we waited and longed for her, even though we had it all. A part of us couldn't be filled, no matter what we did. There was a void that made us feel so lonely and unloved, even when we were surrounded by a loyal family, friends, and pack members.I convinced myself a few years ago that I was meant to be alone and that my destiny was cursed. Who could have thought that our mate was not of our kind? She was a dragon; I knew it at first glance.To me, what she was didn't really matter because she was still perfectly made to be my equal and partner. Even if she were human, I would have gladly welcomed her into my arms.When my men reported an intruder who was near the pack's border, I was reluctant to go and see who it was. I asked my Beta to be the one to do that because it was common to hear that a rogue or other

    Glen's POVI was panicking, feeling a little scared and very anxious.Days had gone by, and there was no word from any of my men. How was that even possible? There were cameras almost everywhere, yet there was no recording of her leaving the city!She couldn't disappear just like that, no matter how I looked at it, unless she had been helped by someone with power.Who could have helped her was the tricky question. Only a very few guests knew what she was to me. So if someone did help her, it was definitely Jace.I came out of my car slowly and looked at him (Jace).He was standing close to the entrance with his mate and others, looking back at me coldly. I didn't call him to ask if he had a hand in helping my mate disappear because I wanted to look into his eyes and hear his voice if he were to lie to me."Why are you here?" he asked coldly when I approached him."Is that how you welcome your only cousin?" I asked simply."You have never stepped foot in my pack in your life, and out o

    Maila's POVI hated assholes like him, and I wanted to drag him out of the pack house by his ears. I had to remind myself a few times that he was Jace's family.A few minutes ago, Lillian was calm and collected until he made it obvious how he wanted to use his mate for his own gain. He made us so furious that we couldn't stop ourselves when he wanted to attack Harvey. I completely took over and moved with Lillian's approval.Seeing him bleed and confused was amusing to me."I apologize; you are still family. I didn't have to hit you; it was just instinct that took over," I lied and then turned to look at Jace.He had a pleased expression on his face, and Harvey, too, looked satisfied with my actions."Also, next time before you act, do think twice about what consequences you would face after the act," I said while I sat down next to Jace.He had a pleased expression on his face, and Harvey, too, looked satisfied with my actions."Harvey may be a Beta, but he is also mated to a powerfu

    Harley's POVI couldn't sleep no matter what.First of all, I felt very nervous and uncomfortable. Secondly, whoever the man was, he wasn't like me because his house was not just a house. It looked like a palace, and there were a lot of houses close to it.Immediately we walked in, the men who were in the passage bowed, shocking me, and two ladies came to my side and asked me to follow them.I wanted to refuse, but when I looked at Sky, who gave me a warm smile, I found myself agreeing. A warm bath was prepared for me, and surprisingly, the ladies wanted to help me bathe. I had to refuse and ask them to step out, which they did.The bathroom was like a freaking pool room designed for a queen. It was very big, and it had all the best cosmetics I had seen from my company. There was a huge wardrobe too on the side, a dressing table, a white and golden bathtub, and a huge shower opposite. The room smelled wonderful, and the water filled in the tub had rose petals and bubbles on top.As I

    Sky's POV "You have to eat something," I whispered in concern as I rubbed Harley's back gently.She was lying down on her bed in silence while I sat next to her. Glen stood next to us with a sad expression on his face. Ever since Corinne left our pack, two days had gone by, but Harley refused to eat or talk much to any of us.I was very concerned that I had to put the pack's work on hold."Perhaps we should call Berta—I mean Mom and Dad—and inform them about everything," Glen insisted seriously.I quickly got up and cursed loudly."What now?" he asked at the top of his voice."We have an intruder," I answered coldly."Riff, we have an intruder," I said loudly as I walked out of the pack house.I sighed heavily when I looked at Corinne, who was standing with her hand pressed on her hip."You again," I said softly, then glanced at Riff and Sophie, who were rushing towards me."Tell the warriors to stand by," I mind-linked Riff and then focused on Corinne."Did you seriously think I wa

    Corinne's POV "Why aren't you asking me more questions?" I asked Harley seriously.A few minutes had gone by, and she was looking at me with hate and anger."Let's go inside," she said coldly, then turned and went into a huge mansion I assumed was the pack house."You heard her," I whispered, then followed her inside.I paid no mind to the wall interior because my eyes were fixed on how she walked. Even her movements were exactly like my sister's. If my sister were any younger, she could have passed as her identical twin.I made a turn and walked into the living room, where she pointed at a sofa."Thanks," I said simply, then took a seat.We both glanced at the door when the two Alphas and Betas walked in."Now that everyone is here, I won't hold back on what I'm about to say and ask," Harley announced seriously."Of course," I whispered.Ever since we received the call about Harley being alive and possibly well, my sister wasted no time in sending me to meet her. Before I traveled,

    Harley's POV I knew my mates were acting differently but I ignored them. At least I tried to because I thought they were doing that to spite me due to how I had kept my feelings to myself.It was wrong of me but I felt like they were doing a little revenge of their own, which I choose to really not pay much attention to until from nowhere Sophie and Glen barged into my room.It was very startling but they gave a few excuses of how they had thought they had heard a sudden noise from my room.At first I didn't think much about the situation and told them they just had been mistaken. But some minutes went by with them talking a lot, as if they were trying to keep me in the dark over something.That's why I asked Sophie if something was going on, but she brushed it off and told me to ignore any noise because the warriors were training in front of the pack house. Her excuse made no sense that's why I turned to Glen and asked him if he was keeping something from me.He hesitated but gave i

    Sky's POV "Do you think we are acting weird?" I asked Riff, who stood in my office with his arms crossed."Is that why you rushed me to your office?" he asked lazily."Are you still upset with me?" I asked back seriously from behind my desk.He shook his head and then dropped his hands."I came running because of the tone of your voice. I thought something bad had happened to you. I was so worried about you, not upset," he answered simply."Well, Harley has been looking at me and Glen coldly these past few days. We... I mean Glen and I decided to keep the news of her parents coming to our pack a secret, just in case they come looking for blood or end up not being her real parents," I said seriously."Well, what do you expect me to say, Alpha? She is a sharp lady who can easily tell if something is going on. Perhaps you should come clean and tell her the truth. After all, you look uncomfortable not telling her, so it might do you good to come clean," he advised.I stood up and brushed

    Glen's POV"Any luck?" Sky asked seriously in my bedroom."It will take a few more days, brother. I have already contacted a few investors and friends who might know about the information that we need," I answered and then took a seat on my bed."I also contacted Ian. He might be intimidating and cold, but because of Jace, he might help us. I heard he is friends with Alpha Damon, whose pack is known as the library of all information," I said."Yeah, I have also heard about him. You did good," he answered.Yesterday, we did everything in our power to make our mate feel better. We called Molly and asked her to invite everyone because we wanted to chat with them all. The chat went well, and after she disconnected the call, Harley still looked a little sad.I knew I had to get to work immediately, so I started calling people who could help. For hours, I was locked up in my office, where I only had a few hours of rest.Sky was with her most of the time, and that was a relief because it see

    Harley's POVI was surprised by the sudden news and departure of Clyde and Berta. But because of how happy they looked, I was okay with it."Now that they are gone, that leaves only two of us women in the pack house," Sophie said with a smile."I have never seen you this happy, manager... oh, I mean Sophie. Sorry, it's out of habit calling you that," I said seriously."It's fine, Luna," she answered as I frowned."You know, I might have been your superior at work in human territory. But here, you are my leader," she said and then took a few steps forward."Forgive me for asking you this, but are you alright?" she asked as I smiled and nodded."You look a bit absent-minded," she said and then grabbed my hands."We started off on the wrong track, but now we are friends, right? So if there is anything that is bothering you, you can confide in me," she said seriously.I kept quiet for a few minutes, then decided to open up to her.How does it feel to have parents?" I asked, and that seeme

    Glen's POV A few days had gone by, and everything was going well.Riff was around but spent a lot of his time in his room with Sophie. My parents were always together as well, helping around the pack, and the pack members had accepted what couldn't be changed and what had happened with grace.The only thing that didn't sit well with me was how Harley acted a bit distant.She was there for me and my brother, but there were times she kept to herself and talked less than she did back in the company.It was like the talkative, cheerful woman I fell in love with was replaced by a mature, quiet, distant one."Son, where is Sky?" Dad asked behind me when he walked into the living room.I turned in my seat and looked at him with a smile."Probably in his office," I answered simply. "He isn't there; I checked," he said calmly."Did you mind-link him?" I asked seriously."Not really; I figured he would be here with you or Riff since he isn't in his office," he answered."Try mind-linking with

    Sky's POV"Brother, you shouldn't do this to yourself," Glen said softly in my office.He was leaning against the wall with his arms folded."Do what?" I asked while I read an email on my laptop."Have you looked at yourself in the mirror?" he asked."No," I answered simply."Then you should, brother; you don't look too well," he said sadly.Of course, I wasn't well, and that's because I had not slept in two days!I was very concerned and worried about how Riff was holding up. Yes, he was with his mate, but that didn't mean he was okay. At least that's what I thought. Also, I was wondering why his sister was quiet.Although she was in town, she must have heard the news. Was she crying somewhere, or did she now despise me?"I am very fine, Glen," I answered coldly."Did you even sleep?" he asked, making me sigh heavily."Where are you going with these questions?" I asked back.He shrugged and then kept quiet.I was about to tell him to leave if he had nothing more to say when the door

    Sophie's POV "What do you think?" he asked as he walked into a cottage after unlocking the door with a key that was hidden beneath a rock close to the entrance.I huffed in my wolf form and then trotted in, ignoring the fact that he was walking nude confidently."Wait here," he said, and then walked into a room and came back dressed in a robe, with a spare one in his hand.He put the robe on the sofa and adjusted the one he was wearing."When we shifted back, we didn't look at each other like that," he said as he turned and faced the other side, giving me his back."Not that I didn't want to admire you; it's just that the situation we were in was... different," he said as I shifted back to my human form and took the robe from the sofa, putting it on."I have shifted a few times in front of different people, so even if you didn't turn, I would have been okay with it," I answered simply.He instantly turned back and glared at me."I'm kidding," I lied, then laughed nervously.Me shifti
