“I knew it,” I muttered to myself.

The realization made me more downcast than I thought I would be, because then, I didn't know how I was supposed to feel knowing she was killed.

The thought was gut wrenching and I resisted the urge to puke all over the floor.

Slowly gathering my breath, I walked out of the room, diary and paper in hand.

I was going to show it to Ares, but what I didn't know was whether to show him the weird text messages I'd been getting over the last few weeks.

But on a second thought, I wondered if it was necessary.

I had pegged the threats down to a jealous lover of Ares, but now, I wasn't so sure what I knew.

Were the messages in anyway related to Candice's death?

It was nearly impossible to connect the dots because what could she have to do with everything?

My mind was racing back and forth and I didn't realize I had gotten upstairs and ran into a brick wall.

“Oww,” I rubbed the tip of my nose.

A brick wall in the middle of the hallway?

“Sorry,” Ares caught my s

    The rest of the day had passed in a blur and a new day rolled in quickly.I had gotten up pretty early and slipped back to my room that now felt foreign to me while Ares was still asleep.He hadn't let me out of his sight all day and I needed to pack.We were supposed to leave the house today.Running away wasn't what I wanted to do, but I knew it was better to run and fight another day.I had learned that the hard way in my previous life.With a small sigh, I walked into the closet and pulled down a small suitcase.I didn't know how long we were going to be gone for, so I just packed the things I deemed necessary.I hadn't even gone halfway through when the door was roughly yanked open, making me jump.Ares stood there with wide eyes and disheveled hair, and confusion etched on my forehead at his state.“Ares….”I had barely even said his name when in two long strides, he reached me and wrapped his arms around me, knocking all the air out of me.He inhaled deeply and buried his head

    After a long morning of stolen kisses and not-so-intimate touches, because he wouldn't break his resolve, we were finally ready to go.“Where's everyone?” I asked as we got downstairs and there was still nobody in sight.“I told you,” he replied, dragging my suitcase and his along.My mouth formed an 'o' and I cringed at what exactly he meant by questioning.He said if they didn't get anything out of them, then they would all be asked to resume duty, so nobody would suspect that investigations were still ongoing till the killer was caught.My eyes unconsciously traveled to Candice's room and a small sigh left my lips.“I'll find them,” Ares whispered beside me as if reading my thoughts.I smiled stiffly and nodded as we walked out of the house and into his car.“Hey,” he turned to me after I was buckled in. “No sulking. Look at it as a mini vacation,” he told me, making a genuine smile to spread across my cheeks.In contrast to his suggestion of us going out of the state, I had simply

    Ares' pov My muscles tightened as I stared at her.Her eyes held so namy emotions but the one that was so clear was hurt.My heart clenched, knowing I was the cause of that hurt.“Ares,” she called from where she stood, not bothering to walk towards me.I mentally cringe at the emotion in her voice. Or lack of.I didn't move either. I couldn't.It was a huge dick move on my part but at the time, it looked like the best idea.As I looked at the heavy clouds in her eyes, I realized just how terrible it was.“What's going on?” She asked, carefully keeping any emotion away from her voice.“Nothing,” I replied.How could I bring myself to tell her?“Nothing?” She furrowed her eyebrows and a slight irritation was evident in her tone. “You literally ghost me for days and you say nothing?” She spat.I winced at the harshness of her tone, but she wasn't done.“What? Is it something I did? Something I said?” She asked.Just great.Now she was blaming herself for my stupidity.“The love you con

    I slowly opened my eyes the next morning, squinting it slightly till they adjusted to the soft rays of the morning sun before opening ttem fully.My body also adjusted to the cold on the side of the bed where Ares should have been.Panic immediately kicked in and a sense of deja vú filled me as I scanned the empty room.Not again.It really couldn't be happening again.Before I could tug all of my hair from their roots, I heard a small noise coming from downstairs.I threw the comforter off my naked frame and scrambled around for what to wear.The sore ache in between my legs reminded me of the night of passion I'd shared with Ares. How a simple conversation had led to that was honestly beyond me. But I wasn't complaining.A small blush crept on my cheeks but I quickly shoved the thoughts away temporarily as I snatched up a shirt from the floor.It wasn't mine.It was Ares’.In my hurry, I left the first two buttons undone and the shirt showed my cleavage and ended mid-thigh.Tying my

    Ares' pov The rest of the morning and afternoon had gone by with us chatting and making love. A lot of the latter.We were currently cozied up in the bed, under the sheet. Her naked body pressed against mine, filling me with warmth while her perky buds poked my chest.I could already feel myself getting hard again even though it had barely been ten minutes since I released my seeds inside her womb for the umpteenth time.She had unlocked an insatiable hunger in me that no matter how many times I had her, it simply wasn't enough.She shimmied a bit, probably trying to find a more comfortable position and my eyes rolled back. I held her hip down to steady her and I released a growl from my chest.“If you don't want me to fuck that little cunt of yours again, don't move against me like that again,” I warned lowly.Something primal flashed through her eyes but disappeared a second later and she giggled into her palm.“Sorry,” she muttered and remained still.I sighed and buried my head i

    “No! No!” I yelled frantically as I shook his shoulders while my body shook uncontrollably.The rain mixed with my tears, clouding my vision even more, and I wiped my eyes with the back of my palm.“Ares,” I yelled at him, but he wasn't responding.His body turned as cold as ice and I shivered greatly.My teeth clattered as I looked around, but there was not a single soul in sight.Everyone had taken cover from the harsh storm.Forcing my heart to calm down, I struggled to lift him.It was more difficult than I thought, because I stumbled more than a couple of times, but I was bent on getting him to safety, and with that, I was able to plop his heavy body down on the passenger seat.Tucking his legs in, I shut the door and ran to the other side.Our bodies were drenched and soaking the chairs until a puddle of water rested on the carpet under our feet, but that was the least of my concerns.“Ares,” I choked out a sob and put the car in drive. “Can you hear me?” I asked, hoping that th

    A small smile played on my lips and a lone tear rolled down my cheeks as I stared at his deathly pale face.I knew I loved this Alpha, but I didn't know how deeply till I watched his almost lifeless. It even scared me how much I loved him.I wanted to tell him. Remind him. But it was all in vain.“Hey, stranger,” I muttered.I took his cold hand in mine, stroking it gently like he would always do to me whenever I was tensed.“I braided my hair myself today,” I told him, turning to the side a bit to show him the not so neat braid hanging at my back.Only, he couldn't see it.I sighed when I didn't get any response.I should be used to the silence by now.It had been a week.A whole week without hearing his voice or seeing his smile or hearing a snarky comment from him.It had been a week, but it still felt very new to me and I knew I wouldn't ever get used to this Ares.He hadn't opened his eyes since that day in the rain, and every day, I blamed myself.Maybe if I had distanced myself

    As I saw the dagger being stuck into Ares' chest, all I saw was red.I lunged at Jason in one movement, tackling him to the ground.His eyes widened for half of a second before he regained himself and pushed me away from him, hitting my back harshly on the wall.“How dare you?!” I growled and threw myself at him again, aiming at plucking his eyes out.He moved to the side and caught my arm, and in the next second, twisted it painfully at my back.He pushed me with so much force that when my chest hit the wall, my eyes rolled to the back of my head.“Your mate, huh?” He spat into my ear.He pressed his body into me, and I didn't miss his hard cock digging into my back.Who the hell was this person?“How about I fuck you senseless in front of your mate’s dead body?” I growled loudly, trying to pry my hands off him, but he was stronger than me. Too stronger than me.He pressed himself more into me, making my skin crawl.“You'll like that, huh? I know you will,” he groped my breast harsh

    Six years later“And there you go,” I placed Adele's little plate in front of her.“Mama, give daddy some,” she said when she noticed I was yet to serve Ares.“Yeah, give daddy some,” Ares wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.“You're disgusting,” I laughed and swatted his arm before going back to the kitchen to get our own plates.Breakfast went by quickly with Ares asking the kids about their week in school, and light chatter went round the table.After breakfast, I sat on the couch, surrounded by the loves of my life. Ares snuggled beside me, his head on my shoulder, while the twins, Emily and Jackson, and their baby sister Adele, played on the floor. The room was filled with laughter and the sound of tiny feet pattering around.I couldn't help but think about just how lucky I was to have a complete family with the man I love. In the last six years, the pack has thrived to new heights, but no matter how busy he was, Ares always made time for his family and I couldn't be more gratefu

    I slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in my surroundings. I was in a hospital room, surrounded by beeping machines and sterile walls so white it made my head ache.I felt like I'd been run over a train many times and every part of me ached.Ares jumped up from where he was seating on the couch, grabbing my hand. His eyes were red-rimmed from lack of sleep, tugging at my heart painfully."Hey," he whispered, his voice cracking with emotion. "Welcome back."I tried to speak, but my throat was dry and sore. He helped me sit up, and quickly handed me a glass of water, and I drank greedily, the cold water sliding down my throat and bringing life back to my body.“You're here,” I mumbled after handing the cup back to him.He nodded rapidly and clasped my hand with his, bringing it to his lips. “You're here too. You came back for me,” he kissed my hand.I brought my hand hooked with IV up and ran my fingers through his overgrown hair. His shoulders shook lightly and I knew he was crying.

    I gulped. The malice and anger in his voice were so palpable I didn't doubt him.He sneered, seeing his words had the desired effect on me before pulling away.My eyes followed him as he walked to the far end of the room and picked a sword from the wall.He let the sword hang loosely on his hand and the tip grated on the concrete floor, making a shrill sound.He stopped a few feet in front of me, and I clenched my teeth, looking as bold as I possibly could.“Jason, do we have to kill her?” Galia asked, biting her lips.He turned to her and his eyes narrowed in slits.“Don't tell me you're chickening out now,” he spat.She shifted her weight from one feet to the other, looking uncomfortable. “It's the Alpha we want. We don't have to kill her,” she repeated.“It seems like you've forgotten what this bitch did to you. To me!” He yelled. “Let me remind you.”I could see Galia's resolve breaking, but he was trying to get in her head.“She made you irrelevant. You lived in her shadows for y

    My eyes opened and the first thing I noticed was the banging pain in my head. The room was utterly dark and somewhere in the far corner, I could hear the steady leaking of water, and the putrid smell of the place hit me square in the face.I groaned in pain, as I tried to move the searing pain in around my chest and arms told me I was bound. The silver burned deeply into my skin, causing me to roll my eyes in pain, and stay still on the chair.I felt something cold trickling down the side of my face and one sniff in the air, I knew it was blood.I tried to remember how I'd ended up in this position and after a few seconds of trying, my memory came back to me in bits and pieces till I made sense of the whole picture.I gritted my teeth and tried to break out of my restraints, but the more I did, the more it burned my skin.I closed my eyes to stop the tears that were threatening to fall. Just when everything was beginning to fall in place, this happens.My mind went to Ares, and I tri

    The meeting was dragging on longer than expected, and I shifted uncomfortably many times in my seat.I sat at my place at the head of the table, staring blankly at the papers in front of me while the presenter’s voice grated at my consciousness.I was supposed to be attentive and giving my inputs on crucial business deal with the foreign investors, but my mind kept wandering and my wolf kept pacing, making me even more restless.Pulling out my phone, I dialed her number for the third time and clenched my fist around the device when I was sent straight to her voicemail.I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that had been plaguing me all day.After a few minutes, I tried to focus on the numbers and figures, but my thoughts kept drifting back to Tabitha, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of dread.I tried to mind-link her through the matebond, but all I got was silence.“Fuck!” I slammed my fist on the table.Some people jumped in fear and others looked up at me warily, concerned

    I woke up the next morning with a smile on my face, feeling like I was walking on air. I was back with Ares, and this time, they were mated. My fingertips traces his mark on my neck and I smiled at the tingly sensation. So this was what being bound to someone felt like.Nyx was as happy as she could be and I'd never felt at peace like I was doing now, in his arms, knowing we had overcome the hurdle that separated us, and I was his like he was mine.It had been two weeks since we got back together, but we still couldn't get enough of each other.We had spent the everyday in these two weeks snuggled up together, only leaving the bed to receive our food that Ares had ordered for, and when totally necessary, and these two weeks have been the happiest of my life.I felt closer to him more than ever now and understood him on a different level since I could now feel what he was feeling through the mate bond, and most times, those feelings were unholy ones that had us tangled underneath the

    Ares' pov I opened my eyes to the rays of sunlight peeking in through the curtains and the memories of the night before came playing in my eyes like a record.A smile covered my face and I turned to snuggle up with her but the bed was cold and empty.My eyes opened, wide awake now and my heart slammed in my chest at the thought that it was all a dream, but before I could go into a panic attack, the bathroom door opened.I released a deep breath as my eyes landed on her innocent brown eyes, her hair tied I a messy bun at the top of her head.“Everything okay?” She asked with a small smile, but I didn't miss how nervous she was.Six months apart, and yet she looked even more radiant than I remembered. Her now short brunette hair framing her face beautifully, and her skin glowed with a warm, golden light.I took a deep breath and reached her in three long strides, wrapping myself around her in a warm embrace.She squealed before relaxing into me. It was a wonder that the connection bet

    My breath came out in short, quick pants as I rode out my high. Ares had said he wasn't going to last, but I didn't expect the heavy orgasm to crash down on me the way he did.In less than a minute, my body was heating up again and shame filled me.We still had a lot to talk about and having sex this way didn't solve anything. Heck he was still with Noelle and she was pregnant!I immediately felt terrible but the ache in between my legs made those thoughts fade.I clenched my legs shut, momentarily embarrassed so he wouldn't see me like a sex deprived maniac, but it was well beyond my control.“Don't hide from me,” his husky voice said from behind me.He turned my body so I was facing him and kept his knee in between my legs, keeping me from seeking friction from my legs.“Wee shouldn't be doing this. It's so wrong,” I shook my head.“Why?” He asked, his filled with different emotions that made my insides curled. “We're mates.”“Not anymore,” I said but I sounded like a moan at the en

    Ares' pov I saw red as I stormed in and saw Rodolfo on her. On my mate!My feet moved before my mind, and the next thing I knew, I was pinning him to the wall.His eyes widened with fear but before he could say anything, I let my emotions take control and began slamming my fist into his face.He was helpless in my hands and my wolf was out to play, but nothing seemed to soothe me. Not the repeated scrunch of his bones breaking under my fist, or his painful growls, or the blood splattered all over his face and my fucking fist.Nothing seemed to calm me.My wolf wanted blood and I wasn't sure I would stop even if he dropped dead to the ground.My relentless pounding on his face continued till a needy whine rolled out of her lips and everything around me stopped.I let him fall like a sack of potatoes on the floor and mind-linked my guards I'd come with to come in.I immediately rushed to her quivering side before they entered and yanked off my coat, wrapping it around her and scooping
