"Let's just be happy, Lisa. There's been a lot going on in our lives since we got here, and it's hell. My daughter, my ex-Alpha boyfriend, everything's just such a big mess.""I know right? My secret crush on a werewolf!" Lisa scoffed out loud, "Damnit, should I have even come here in the first place? You never told me these guys were damn hot."Kiara chuckled. "There are about a hundred more wolves out there, why Blake? He doesn't sound so interesting.""The more reason why I think I like him. He's such a mysterious guy and I just want to find out more." Lisa responded and heaved deeply. She picked up the cup of smoothie and drank from the straw on it."Are you ready to leave? Some clothes shopping would make me feel better, bills on me." Lisa said and rose to her feet when Kiara nodded her head. As they both walked outside, Lisa halted,"I forgot my card, I'll go get it inside." She uttered and began to go in while Kiara waited close to the car. As Lisa stepped in, the first thing he
Kiara took her seat on one of the sit available in the restaurant and began to wait for Cass. It's been two days since the incident at the hospital, but during these days, she had not seen Aiden. It was more like he didn't need her service anymore and she had to find out why.She heaved deeply, gently playing with her fingers as she waited anxiously for Cass. Maybe Aiden was ready to terminate the contract just like she had requested the first time she came, but now things were different. She was ready to forgive him, but she was ready to help me find a cure for his sickness as soon as possible."Cass, over here.!" She called as her eyes had been at the entrance the entire time, waiting patiently for him and when he cocked his head towards her, he arched his eyebrows in surprise to see Kiara 20 minutes earlier than the time that had decided to meet here."You're here early?" Cass questioned.Kiara clamped her lips at first before answering, "Yes, I left early because I had to go get my
After getting ready, Aiden stepped out of the room and headed for the living room. He tucked hIs hand into his pocket and began walking down the stairs and when he got to the living room, Cass was standing at the entrance."Hey, what happened to Kiara?""I'm not gonna talk about it, Cass. Let's get ready to head to the company." Aiden started and stepped out when the door was opened for him. He got to the car and got in first, while Cass got in after him.About two hours later, the car halted and they both stepped out of it. Aiden walked first while Cass trailed behind him. "Mr Knight?" A young lady dressed in a tight blue skirt, and a white shirt approached and asked. When Aiden nodded her head, she gave him a warm smile,"Please this way, Mr Daniel is waiting for you." She uttered and began to lead the way. They got to the entrance of a room, and the door was opened. "Mr Knight, it's so good to see you." Aiden heard as he watched the man approach him. He outstretched his hand and t

Lisa had arrived a while ago, and the kids were having the snacks she had prepared for them while Kiara was still seated, but this time lost in thoughts."Kiara," Lisa called for the second time, but there was no response."Kiara."Even when the door opened and Cass walked in, Kiara had not noticed it. "Kiara," Lisa yelled for the third time and she jerked in fright. "Oh my, I'm sorry Lisa, I was…""Lost in thoughts? I know you do that a lot." Lisa replied and smiled at Kiara while poking her head at Cass. Kiara turned back to see Cass standing behind her,"Hey, when did you get here?""A minute ago. Can't I talk to you outside?" Cass uttered.Judging by his facial expression, Kiara could tell something was wrong so she nodded her head. She rose to her feet and trailed him out of the room. They got to a corner that wasn't so far from Zoey's room, and when they halted, Cass took Kiara by surprise when he pulled her into a warm embrace,"I was so damn worried about you, Kiara."Kiara re

Cass got back to the pack and headed straight for Aiden's room. As he got in, Aiden was getting ready for something he knew nothing about."What took you so long, Cass?" Aiden questioned without turning around to look at him. "Kiara was adamant on seeing you? I don't think she likes your idea.""Well, I don't care if she likes it or not. She's got to do what she came here to do and leave the pack once it's done." Aiden heaved deeply. It wasn't so easy being tough, but he had to."Did you get done what I asked you to do?" This time around, when Aiden asked, he turned around, but Cass didn't give him a response. He was reluctant to do so because what Aiden had earlier asked him to do was so hurtful, and as a result, it took so much effort to get it done,"Yes. But I still think this is the worst idea ever.""That's why we have Blake keeping a close watch on her, Cass. You and I have a business meeting to attend to, so while we await Scarlett's retaliation, and until then, you're not to
“Scarlett, don't tell me you killed this one just like that!" "And what else could I have done, Taylor, let him go so easily? Besides, he wasn't enough," Scarlett responded as she drew closer to the drawer next to her. She opened it slowly, and when she spotted her napkin, she wiped the blood stain on her finger.“Just wanted to have a taste of him too and I had this fucking urge to kill him afterward,” Taylor shook her head, but Scarlett only smirked, "Don't Tell me it's what I'm thinking, Taylor!"There was a nod from Taylor,"Well, next time darling. I had no idea the young man caught your attention too and you wanted a taste of him too."After hearing this, Taylor rolled her eyes, and said,"Anyways Scarlett, I have good news”“Now you just calm down Taylor, you always have something to talk about” Scarlett responded still wiping the blood stain off her hand,“I bet you'd love this one since it's about her, but oh well, since you don't really want to know about it, then I'll be o
A FEW WEEKS LATER} {CHICAGO 5:40 PM} “I sincerely never stopped loving you Taylor, I never stopped remembering everything we shared, not until you changed. And I'm grateful for everything.” Blake uttered as stood straight up while his gaze was still fixed on the ocean. “l know you still loved me but I'm sorry I couldn't give you that same love and affection you always had when we were still together. Things just had to change and I also had to move on. I learned that we all need to give love a second chance and to my greatest shock, I did, and it worked out fine. I'll be okay and I hope you will as well be wherever you are now. Thank you so much for your sacrifice, Taylor.” He declared softly as he inhaled a deep breath and threw the bouquet he had in his hand straight to the sea. “Farewell Taylor.” He whispered as he shut his eyes deeply while a tear rolled down from his eyes. “Hey “ Lisa whispered as she walked up to Blake and cuddled him from behind. “I'm sure she's glad t
Kiara packed her hair in the form of a ponytail and applied a little makeup before she stood before the mirror. She had already made sure the house was peaceful and the kids had gone to school. “Hey,” Lisa called out as she leaned on the wall close to the front door. “Good morning.” “Good morning Lisa.” Kiara greeted and she took one more glare at her reflection before grabbing her keys. “Are you set to go now, because it was like you were taking ages you know?” Lisa teased and it made Kiara chuckle a bit. “Yeah, let's leave now.” Kiara responded. That said, they both walked outside immediately. As soon as they got to Kiara's car, Lisa opened the door and climbed into the front seat, next to the driver's seat and so did Kiara. Without hesitation, she turned on the engine and began to drive straight to the hospital. Kiara applied the brakes as soon as she got to the hospital grounds. As she climbed out of the car and shut the door behind, she began to walk inside immediately while
“Can I get my receipt?.” Lisa questioned as she tried to carry her shopping bags but she couldn't because they were too many. She had purchased so many items for the house upkeep and for the kids as well. “Do you need a hand with that?” Lisa hears a voice speak to her from behind. Oh I think I'm fine, you don't need to..” Lisa's jaw dropped the moment she turned to face him. “With the look of things here, I think you need a second hand and I do have one to spare.” As he spoke, Lisa's gaze had almost pulled off his T-shirt. “Oh yeah, I think I really need that spare hand for myself.” She whispered softly. “Excuse me?” . His voice jolted her to reality once again. “Oh I'm so sorry, I guess I could use a hand please.” Lisa responded while her warm smile smudged on her lips. “I'm Daniel.” Lisa heard the voice once again as he helped her carry most of the bags, leaving her with just one.” “Oh you really don't have to..” “Let's just go.” Daniel cut her as he began to walk out of the
“Alright, goodnight Miguel,” Caroline uttered as she tried to end the call and continue her dinner but she heard Miguel's voice again. “Don't forget our appointment this weekend.”Frustrated, Caroline placed her right hand on her forehead and rested on it. “Yeah, I won't, bye.” That said, she ended the call immediately not wanting to know if Miguel still had something to say. “Such a talkative person.” Caroline heaved as she returned to her meal.As she ate, heard the sound of the front door opening. As soon as she darted her gaze to the door, she spotted Cass and without hesitation, she returned her attention to her meal. Cass stood still as he watched Caroline eat and pretended like she had never seen him walk inside. The moment Caroline noticed he kept staring at her, she felt uncomfortable. She hastily rose to her feet and as she turned to leave, she felt a grip on her hands. Cass pulled her to him and gasped her hands tightly. “Hey, why are you acting weird all of a sudden?” He
“Hey, Miguel.” Caroline uttered weakly as she placed her cell phone on her ear.”“Hey bestie, what's wrong, you don't sound okay at all.” Miguel's voice rang out from the other line. “Nothing's wrong, I'm just kind of stressed out,” Caroline responded while she rubbed her eyes gently. “Let's meet today Carol, it's been a while since we spent some quality time together.” Miguel declared. Caroline sighed deeply as she averted her gaze up to the wall clock. “ By what time?” She questioned as she brushed her hair backwards and she climbed out of the bed weakly.“In two hours,” Miguel replied and ended the call before Caroline could utter any more words. Caroline heaved deeply and then began to walk straight to the restroom. As she sat on the toilet seat, what happened between her and Cass replayed on her head. Although she had always longed for him for so long now, but not that way. Cass had taken it very hard on her and she felt like a fool because as they had sex, Cass never mentioned
Caroline applied the brakes and rushed out of the car immediately. The moment she got to the back seat, she opened the door quickly and helped Cass climb outside. “I warned you not to drink too much Cass.” She uttered as she struggled to assist him but Cass pushed her to the floor immediately while he began to walk inside. “Argh.” Caroline groaned in pain as she struggled to get back on her feet to assist him. The moment Cass reached the front doorstep, he collapsed on the floor instantly. “Why do you prefer hurting this much, Kiara?” Cass whispered and shut his eyes immediately. A deep frown appeared on Caroline's lips as she heard Cass's voice. “You're also hurting me as well Cass, please can't you just love me back? I'm f*cking fricking out right now because I'm just so sad and confused. I love you so much Cass so please stop avoiding me, it hurts so much.” She whispered as her voice began to break slowly. As she bent down to Cass's level, she touched his soft brown hair and dre
As Kiara sat comfortably, she glanced at Cass and noticed that he had been staring at her for a while. With a slight scoff, she averted her gaze elsewhere immediately. Caroline watched with suspicion as Cass continued to stare at the woman he barely knew. She had never seen him look at anyone with such calm and warm affection before.Caroline wished she could be the recipient of Cass's gaze, but instead, she watched as he continued to stare at the lucky lady.Raymond concluded his announcement with, "Thank you once again for showing up. Please enjoy your stay here." As he made his way to where Aiden and Kiara were seated,The moment Kiara left to use the restroom, Cass stood up, causing Caroline to glance in his direction, expecting him to at least say a word or two before leaving. However, to her disappointment, Cass turned and made his way towards the direction Kiara had gone. Caroline watched him disappear, feeling a knot in her stomach. She knew that Cass's attention was now focus
"Don't say a word to anyone," Cass ordered Caroline as they arrived at the dinner party. "Just smile and look pretty." Caroline frowned and lowered her gaze to the floor in disappointment.Cass had insisted that she accompany him to this event, despite her discomfort. As the press began to photograph them, Cass stepped out of the car first and extended his hand to help Caroline out. At that moment, Caroline wished that the gesture had been genuine, that Cass cared about her as more than just an accessory to his image. But she knew that was unlikely. As the reporters snapped pictures of the couple, Cass leaned in and whispered something into Caroline's ear, with his voice low and commanding. "Remember your place," he said, a thinly veiled threat in his words.Caroline's fake smile faltered for a moment, but she quickly recovered while her lips curved up into a tight, forced grin. She knew that she couldn't afford to make a scene, not when Cass's reputation was at stake.But as they wa
The moment Blake applied the brakes, Aiden opened the car door and climbed down immediately. With a deep breath, he wasted no time to walk inside quickly, while Blake trailed behind him. As they stepped inside the living room, they both parted ways. Aiden stood still at his doorstep and squeezed the door knob gently. As he stepped inside, his eyes widened in extreme shock the moment his gaze met with the slender gorgeous-looking lady that stood across the mirror.While Kiara adjusted her dress, she felt a hand grip her waist gently. “When I said look your best, I never meant you should dress to seduce anyone,” Aiden whispered as he slowly brought his hands to her breasts and squeezed them tightly while she kissed her neck.A smile crept on Kiara's lips as she quietly turned to face him while she wrapped her arms boldly around his neck. “I dressed to seduce you.” She whispered and joined her lips with Aiden lips. As Aiden realized they were supposed to be somewhere, he broke from the
