Natalia turned around and saw Adrian shut the door as he came out of the car.Natalia walked toward him, thinking that he had forgotten to say something about the children."Yes?"She stood in front of him, only to find him looking at her intensely."I am telling you one last time. Stay away from that man."In a few seconds, her eyes glowed in anger in response."You can't see me happy, can you? You saw today how much he takes care of me. When you warned him countless times and still he did not take a step back, you came to say nonsense to me again?"Adrian took a deep breath, as if trying to calm himself. "Listen–""No. I don't want to listen to you. Max said he would introduce me to his head Alpha and then he would fix a dat–"Adrian's eyes darkened as he took a sudden step toward her. "Date for what?"Natalia stepped back. "D-Date for our engagement."Adrian lost his mind as he grabbed her arms and drew her closer to himself."Have you lost your mind, Natalia Hansley?"She glared a
Natalia's POVI was shocked when I heard Adrian. Did he even know what he was saying?I could not believe he could say that ever in his life.However, I suspected he was lying to me. I did not believe this man at all.I tried to break his grasp. "Have you lost your mind? Leave me before I kill you."He shook his head, buried his face in my neck, and murmured something. His voice made a vibration on the skin of my neck, prompting me to gulp."I swear to my children. I love you. I can't see you with another man. I don't want to force you, either. Please don't turn me into the ruthless man that I don't want to be in front of you. I want you to love me back; I don’t want to blackmail you or something. Just give me a chance. It will be the last chance, I promise."My heart trembled with his words. I froze in place as if the whole world stopped around me, and I returned to the days when I used to dream of him returning my love.Tears scrambled in my eyes, as it was almost impossible for me
Third POVAdrian frowned at her. He did not understand why she said that. What exactly did she mean when she said the ground would slip beneath him?He stared at Natalia, watching her go inside her house. He did not move from the place until he heard the sound of his phone ringing."I will make you mine. I know I hurt you, but I don't want to hurt you for not choosing me. You have become my desire, which I can't share with anyone. You belong to me, only me."He looked away and got in his car. He started the car and grabbed the phone, which once again began to ring.He glanced at the phone and saw that it was Delta Julian. He received the call and heard Juliana's voice."Alpha, thank goodness you received the call. We found Faith's location. We track the cab she is currently in. I am sending you the location.""Got it.""The video footage will also be sent to your phone.""I'm driving right now. Let me grab that woman first, and then I will find out who her lovely savior is.He then hu
Adrian's POVFaith fainted from pain. My officials hurriedly took her to Julian's car."Where are we going to take her?" My Delta, Julian, asked me.I was still stunned. But I immediately came back to my senses and replied,"To my house."As the car drove in the direction of my house, I was still in a daze. I felt a pat on my shoulder, which made me turn around."I should drive your car. You don't look good to me," Patric said, getting into my car.I realized he did not go with my other officials. He started my car after I settled into the front seat next to him."I know it's shocking, but calm down. We need to know the truth," Patric told me calmly.However, my mind was not calm.She was not even safe with the man, whom she used to call her father.My blood was boiling in anger. "Call that man and tell him to come to my house right now."With one hand gripping the steering wheel, Patric took out his phone and dialed a number."Is he back in the pack?" he asked the man who received th
As soon as the car came to a stop in front of my house, I dashed out and went inside.I could not believe how it could be possible. What was Lynda's connection with Natalia's cousin?I recalled the way Lynda had responded a few months ago when she had seen Faith outside this house. When I asked her, she pretended she did not know her.Then why did she help her?"Adrian."Patric called me from behind. He looked away from me as he said,"I know it is not right to say that, but please, just relax. Let's see what happens."I tightened my fists and glanced at the other sides. I saw that every one of my officials was present. It seemed they told all the maids to leave the house for tonight.Gamma Benjamin was bandaging Faith's head. He looked at me and said,"I thought I could do that. We can’t take a risk sending her to the pack hospital again."I gave him a nod and turned around. Patric spoke out again."Where are you going, Adrian?""To my study room. Call me when Gamma Jeremy will arriv
"HOW COULD I NOT RECOGNIZE HER? HOW?"I growled as I rose up from my chair and smashed the table with my hand.The loud noise of the broken table reached the living room. My officials rushed toward the study room and opened the door.I did not give a damn as I began smashing everything that caught my eye. It was unbelievable to me that I was such an idiot.Why did fate have to betray me like that? Why did her wound turn invisible at that time? Only if I could see that wound, I would have recognized her.But she did not want me to love her for the past. Why did I not love her back?Why?"Adrian!"Patric rushed over to me as well as my other officials. They grabbed my arms to stop me. But I yanked my arms away and punched the wall in anger."I just hate myself. Why did I do that to her? Why did I not recognize her? She was always in front of me, with me, but I....."I could not let out anything more as my eyes and throat both started to burn. I punched the wall once again.Blood gushed
I was staring at Faith for quite some time. She was lying on the couch in the living room.After calming myself in the study room, I directly came here to take a look at the people who were connected to Natalia's sufferings.I noticed Faith's hand move as she was coming back to consciousness.As soon as her eyes opened, my men, who came inside my house a while ago, pointed their guns at her.She appeared to be frightened. She screamed in fear and sat up on the couch.Her eyes met mine, and she began to cry. "Please, let me go."I stared at her calmly. It took me some time to control myself from anger. I had to compose myself to learn the truth."Are you going to spill everything or..." I warned him.At that time, Gamma Jeremy and his wife, Cora, entered my house.My head turned at them as my wolf growled inside in anger to kill them."A-Alpha, you called us," Gamma Jeremy said.His eyes fell on Faith, and they grew wider.He did not expect Faith to be caught by my men, did he?I walke
Third POV"I can't believe it! How could you do that to that poor child, Jeremy?"The angry voice of Alpha Lucas echoed throughout the house.Adrian called him and Grace here to let them know what the man who used to be their Gamma had been doing all these years."And you! How easily you have deceived us about saving our son," Grace said, glaring at Lynda.Lynda was kneeling on the floor as her head was low. She was held by the guards, just like her parents. She did not let out a single thing after getting caught. Adrian sent Faith somewhere, which they did not know.Adrian was not calm at all. The rage that growled in his head was not easy to calm. But he wanted to give them the perfect punishment.His officials saw him walking to the couch. They wondered what was going on in his mind.Adrian sat down and lit a cigarette to ease his mind first. He did not care that his parents were there in front of him. He did not give a damn about anything right now.There was a fire blazing inside
