Drake leaned against the edge of the rooftop, a cigarette dangling between his fingers as he stared out into the night sky.“That is because I held her parents captive!”. Lucian’s words kept replaying in his head. Even though he was Lucian’s beta, he had no idea Lucian had done such a thing. And Lucian had made it seem like Ava’s parents fled leaving their daughter in his custody.Who knew Lucian was the mastermind behind everything. And his mother….? How did she threaten Ava then? “Aishhh!”. He yelled, the more he thinks about it the more complicated things get. One thing was for sure Ava didn’t kill Lucian’s mother.“Brown hair, brown hair..” he murmured repeatedly, suddenly recoiling Ava talking about the girl with brown hair.Suddenly, a familiar voice broke through his turmoil. "Drake!" Enzo whispered, his arms wrappingaround Drake from behind. The warmth of Enzo's embrace brought a small smile to Drake's face, momentarily easing his troubled mind."Can't sleep?" Enzo asked
“What the heck is going on here?" Sabrina exclaimed, her voice filled with a mix of surprise and confusion. Her eyes widened as she took in the scene before her.Drake and Enzo quickly disengaged from each other, their chests heaving as they tried to catch their breath.“Uhm.. I.. we-we actually!”. Drake stuttered, unable to form a word.Sabrina's shock was palpable as she murmured, "You guys are gay?" Her voice was barely above a whisper, as if she couldn't quite believe what she had just witnessed.“Not technically gay but… we are like gayly mates!”. Drake murmured, knowing she would not understand.“Wow! Does Lucain know?" she asked, her voice filled with curiosity, her hands instinctively folding against her chest.“No no please don’t tell my brother!”. Enzo begged.A cruel smirk slowly crept across her face, a sinister glimmer in her eyes as she winked at him."Sure," she replied, her voice dripping with malice. "But on one condition!" Her smirk deepened, revealing a twisted sati
“I saw her!”. Lucian murmurs, breaking the silence between them.“Who?”. Drake asked, looking up from the file.“The brown hair girl, the one ava was talking about! She came to our room last night!”. Lucain explained.Drake's eyebrows shot up in disbelief. "Came to your room? How is that even possible?" he questioned“She's not human, Drake. She seemed like a witch who hasn't fully mastered her powers yet. Or perhaps she deliberately allowed me to see her.""A witch?i thought we were the only supernatural ones in human world." Drake murmured"I didn't get a clear look at her face before she transformed into Ava."Drake's surprise was palpable. "She changed herself into Ava?" he asked, his voice tinged with disbelief.“Yes!”.lucian smirk.“She’s the one that killed my mother!”. Lucian said.“How to find her?”.“No!”. He exclaimed, a confident smirk playing on his lips.“We won’t look for her!”. Lucian leaned back in his chair, his eyes glinting with a mischievous glimmer.“Sometimes a
“Who were you with?" he asked, his voice laced with suspicion. Leaning in slightly, he subtly sniffed the air around her.“Maya and Nathan," she whispered."No!" he exclaimed, pulling her closer by the waist as he inhale her scent, detecting a different scent on her."There... there is another man's scent on you, Ava!". Lucain said with disbelief."What is your problem?" she retorted, her voice tinged with a mix of frustration and defensiveness, instinctively pushed him away, creating a small physical distance between them."We were at the ice cream truck, surrounded by people. It's only natural that there might be another scent on me," Ava exclaimed, her voice rising with exasperation."And what do you mean about another man's scent?" Ava questioned, her voice much softer, She leaned in closer, her eyes locked with his."I know the difference between the scent of random people and the scent of another man, Ava.” Lucian responded.“What the hell, Lucian?" she exclaimed, her eyes fille
“Love, just a minute please!”. Lucian said, getting up from the bed.“Drake what did you say?”. He said, his eyes hardened.“Enzo has gone missing?”. Lucian asked, raising his voice. “Where are you?”. He asked, getting ready to leave his bedroom.“Lucian, what is happening?”. Ava asked, looking worried.“Drake just mindlink me now, he says he can’t find Enzo”. Lucian responded.“I will come with you!”. Ava offered, getting out of the bed.“No love, stay here I will be back soon!”. Without waiting for her response, Lucian rushed out of the room.*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•*•“Alpha, I have been searching everywhere, but I could not find any trace of Enzo”. Drake explained, exhausted, one could see the panic look in his eyes.Lucian, concerned, walked towards the elevator and asked, "When was the last time you saw him?""Last night at the rooftop, we were..." Drake's voice trailed off, his words caught in his throat.“You were?”. Lucian asked, turning to look at him.
"He... he can't possibly go... go to Russia?" he managed to utter, his words laced with uncertainty and concern.“Yes, Enzo is on his way to Russia!”. Drake said, hurtness visible in his voice.“I don't want to hear any more discussion about Enzo's matter!" Lucian commanded firmly."Lucas, let go. Drake asked Kayla to stay with Ava. And make sure Ava doesn't leave her side, not even for a minute!" Lucian instructed, before leaving with Lucas."Lucian, what's going on?" Lucas asked as soon as they got into the car.Lucian sighed, stepping on the gas pedal."I honestly don't know. I have no idea!" he exclaimed angrily."Have you tried mindlinking him?" Lucas inquired."He has blocked me out!" Lucian replied, his grip on the wheel tightening.“Do you think he did this just to get back at you? Probably because of Ava?”. Lucas asked, looking at lucian.“Do not bring my mate into this, I fucking told him Ava wasn’t responsible for my mother’s death!”. Lucian yelled.“And please I do not wan
A knock came on Lucian's office door. "Yes?" Lucian said. "Sir, someone is here to see you!" his secretary responded. "Does he have an appointment?" "No sir, but he insists that it is important for him to see you". she replied. "What is his name?" "Ethan!". The secretary answered."Ethan?" Lucian repeated, the name not ringing a bell to him."Let him in!" he said.Ethan entered the room, his piercing hazel eyes scanning the surroundings before settling on Lucian."Don Russo, I presume?" Ethan asked, extending his hand for a handshake.Lucian hesitated for a moment, looking at Ethan suspiciously before He shook his hand. “Yes!”. Lucian said."I apologize for showing up unannounced. I have some information that I believe you need to know. And I'd appreciate it if we could speak privately," Ethan said, glancing from Lucian to Lucas.Lucas smirk, standing up, taking one glaze at Ethan before leaving.Lucian motioned for Ethan to take a seat.“What would you like to have?”. Lucian a
Lucian’s phone rings, interrupting his conversation, he picks it up ."Hello?" he answered, his voice tinged with impatience.Lucian's eyes widened in shock as he listened to the voice on the other end of the line. The colour drained from his face, and he couldn't help but raise his voice in disbelief. "What?" he yelled, his voice echoing through the room.“Fuck!”. Lucian murmured, dropping the call.“What is the matter lucian?”. Lucas asked.Lucian sighed, running a hand through his hair.“Two of our warehouses in Russia have been burnt to ashes!”. He exclaimed.Lucas's eyes widened in shock. "What? How did that happen?"."I don't know yet," Lucian replied, frustration evident in his voice. "I just received a call from our manager in Russia. He said that the warehouses were completely destroyed by a fire”. “Wow!”. Lucas exclaimed.“It must be that viper guy!”. Lucas said, his voice filled with bitterness and anger.“No, it’s not him, he won’t dare!”. Lucian murmurs angrily.“I will
