Logan’s POV

I knew that face anywhere. He was the popular face of the Umbra collective, Dimitri Aterm, one of the most wanted men in the world.

“My friend, welcome home. I can see you came with friends. We had an agreement. Come alone. Why the company? Your parents might be the founding fathers, but I tell you what, I can shoot each and everyone of you in the face and get away with it. Ask around. Everybody knows Dimitri Aterm. You don't want to joke with the slayer of men.”

I swallowed hard, his voice making me want to clench the doorpost in fear.

“I’m sorry Dimitri. I wanted to introduce you properly to everyone.”

He touched his hair, then shook his head in disagreement.

“There's no need for that. Vladimir, let them in. Let's hear what the Bohen boy has to say. Come on, allow them to come in now.”

Vladimir, the man that had opened the door to let us in sneered as we entered. My heart hammering in my chest, I entered the room that was like an office. Even though the entire buildi

  • The Alpha's Hot Chase After Divorce    Chapter 168

    Logan’s POV I shook my head in anger at Owen. “The day you stop thinking only about yourself is the day you progress. For now, keep on being the deluded man that you are. The world doesn't revolve around you. Are you guys okay? I'm sorry about all that. It's their method of conducting business, I'm afraid.”We slipped into the Van, and Peterson gunned the engine. I closed my eyes momentarily. Collins Morgan, Jayson Holmes, my friends and I were coming. You have lived your life. It was time to let us live ours. COLLINS POVI made my rounds through the Eleven slowly, jotting in between rounds. Armed with a can of beer, I sipped slowly, noting that there was a lack of stock and beer in the store. It needed to be refilled. I made other adjustments, also noting that the chairs were beginning to lose their colors. They needed to be sprayed as well.Just then, I made my way to the counter where I found Marie trying her best to clean it up. “Good morning Marie. I must say, I'm impressed

    Logan’s POV I shook my head. How was I supposed to tell her that I had paid and planned for the death of my own uncle? I didn't want to get known as a ruthless man yet. I was getting to that stage, but at the moment I was still a young adult. “I'm fine, mother. I don't just feel too well. I think I'll take a break from breakfast, just lie in my bedroom for some time. I believe I'll be fine.”With those words, I exited the room. The burner phone was in my pocket and I reached for it, then dialed Dimitri's number as soon as I was out of earshot. The call only seemed to heighten my anxiety because he refused to acknowledge it. I stood in my room, staring at the window silently. Was everything going to go according to plan? COLLINS POVImmediately after work, I found my way to the hotel room where Jayson was staying for the time being. I knocked once and the door opened, revealing his slender frame in briefs and a singlet. “Man, are we still on for the meeting? We're meeting with Ni

  • The Alpha's Hot Chase After Divorce    Chapter 170

    Collins’s POVI managed to get out of the car I had driven in, to the hotel with Jayson Holmes. The same Jayson Holmes that was lying down cold and dead in a hotel. The events of the past few hours kept replaying in my mind like a cassette. Who had dared attack the six? I had a few suspects, but I knew that I wouldn't be able to think properly and accurately until I was safe and sound. And safe and sound meant in my house, with my injured hand bandaged and well taken care of. I knocked on the door, and I only had to knock once before the door was opened. It was Dahlia, my sister. On her face was a stare of apprehension, which meant that she had been waiting for me all along. And I knew why; I was to pick the children up from school. “Collins? For goodness sake, where have you been? I've been trying to reach you for the past two hours! You promised to go to the children's school and help me pick them up. What happened…”She stopped talking when she noticed the bloodstain on my shir

    Rex's POVI was trying to rest when I heard the shuffling of feet inside the room where my mother had been sleeping. I rubbed my eyes, then looked up in time to see the doctor that was in charge of my mother, his glasses dangling from a rope across his neck. “Mr Rex king. You're sure you don't want to go home and rest properly? I can assure you that your mother will be stable in a few hours. Be rest assured of that.”I shook my head, then gave him a lopsided smile. I was very tired, but leaving my mother wasn't an option. “No sir. I'll stay with her, thank you.”The doctor turned, and began to check the important signs that signaled that my mother was still doing quite well. But he had barely touched her when she woke up, her eyes darting dangerously. I saw the redness of her eyes, and knew that her wolf was awake as well. The doctor, who knew who he was taking care of and the kind of creature she was, smiled at her, then patted her gingerly on the arm. “Mrs King? It's doctor Geor

    Kingsley’s POVI sat in the bar, waiting for Alphonso. It was a bar that was hidden from the sight of passersby and even the sight of the people that knew the town so well. That was what I wanted. To stay away from the public eye, to make sure that I wasn't seen. I knew who I was. My fame precedes me, I wasn't only a great fighter, but a man who controlled the streets as well. I was well known, even though I lived in far away Cleveland.“Sir? Your vodka.”I accepted the glass and its contents that was being offered to me by the bartender. I swept it down in one gulp, then slipped the glass to the bartender to fill it again. I nodded at my men who were stationed in strategic corners of the bar as well. Even though I wanted to be out of the public eye, it didn't mean that I had to leave my soldiers at home. I needed protection, always. Just then, the doors of the bar opened, revealing Alphonso. His hair was still gray, just like it had been a few years ago when we had last met. He

    Logan’s POVI entered the pool where I relaxed during the evenings, then swam across it, allowing the water to caress and relax my skin. Being born into wealth was the best thing that had ever happened to me. Which explained why I didn't only have a pool to myself, but also a hot water tub where I could go to wash off properly later. I did the butterfly stroke, then swam towards the shallow part of the pool. Shaking my hair to allow the water to transcend down my body, I smiled. The events of the past few hours returned to me. The news had confirmed it. My Uncle, Jayson Holmes was dead. He was gone. That meant one down, a few more to go. That was the significance of money. Being able to buy a war completely, being able to use money to win a war. “Logan! Logan! I order you to leave that pool this instant.”I sighed. I knew that voice anywhere. It was my father's. And yes, he sounded angry. What did I do wrong this time? “Leave the pool, dad? I come here to relax every evening. Th

    Collins’s POVI ran a hand through my hair as I let Ace control the car. I knew I was supposed to stay back and allow my sister to take care of my injuries, but I had to do something important.First of all, I told Kingsley the news. It was simple. I had a few suspects, but Rex King and Logan topped the list. And I had chosen Logan. He was a young adult, he was fearless and he was daring. Even Rex King wasn't going to dare attempt such a feat because he knew what it meant. I had thought Kingsley would instruct my men and I to attack, but the reverse was the case. He opted for peace, which I had to accept even though it wasn't my wish. And now, I knew that I had to confront them. If I didn't, I was never going to sleep properly. The car came to a halt in the Botech industries. Parking, I slipped out of the car. My hand was covered in bandage and blood, but I had managed to hide it by wearing a coat Ace had provided earlier. “You can't go in without a certified pass, sir. I'm sorry

    Marie’s POVI finished bathing, then made sure that I applied my make-up as soon as possible. I was already late for work at the Eleven. In charge of finance, I already knew that my work had piled up in a corner, waiting for me. It wasn't easy to control the finance affairs of a big bar like The Eleven, but I was getting used to the ropes. At least, I thought I was. Putting on a blue gown with floral imprints, I made my way to the room where Elena normally kept the twins. She was in there with them, they lay on the bed, and she was smiling at them. “Aunty Marie! Good afternoon aunty Marie.” It was Kanu's shrill voice. In a setting where he was placed with his sister, he was always the first person to greet. I smiled at him, then went ahead to stroke his head. “How are you, Kanu? Kiana? Y'all are getting better, I hope? There's something called the flu, and I hate it just as you do.”“Yes, Aunt Marie. The flu does nothing but bring more harm than good!” They chorused. Laughing, I

    Elena's POV The early morning light filtered through the pack house windows and casted a golden glow over the kitchen, while I busied myself with preparing breakfast. It was a calm morning, but I could feel tension in the air. While the battle went on yesterday, Alphonso got captured and what was going to be done with him hadn't been decided yet, but whatever decision was going to be taken will define the pack's future.I stood by the counter, stirring a pot of oatmeal while Kanu and Kiana bickered playfully over the cereal I had given them earlier. Something about their laughter and noise felt comforting and reminded me of the simple life that we almost lost. It was hard to imagine that we managed to pull through, but as I glanced at the family photo, the realisation that we had survived set in.Then, Rex walked in, looking as if he had just woken up, his dark hair a bit ruffled. "It sure smells good in here," he said groggily.I smiled at him. "I'm preparing breakfast obviously, bu

    Elena's POV The energy was electric in the pack house. Wolves in human and shifted forms moved around the courtyard with their voices conveying relief and celebration. Despite the tension everyone felt from the battle we endured, everyone felt hopeful and personally, I can't remember the last time I felt that way.Standing near the edge of the crowd while watching as pack members approached Rex to congratulate him, I noticed that he moved slowly as a result of his injuries but his presence was still as commanding as ever. He cemented his role as a leader with each nod of his head and each word he exchanged with them. "Are you okay?" A voice said from my side, breaking me out of my thoughts. Turning sideways, I see that it's Logan."I think so," I replied, my gaze shifting back to Rex."You give off this feeling of someone that's getting ready to run." Logan said with a mischievous smile, though his tone was gentle.That caused a short laugh to escape my lips, "it's just a lot. All o

    Elena's POVI woke up to the morning light filtering through the blinds of the hospital room with its soft rays washing over Rex's face. He was still asleep with his chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm. Despite how pale he looked with the bandages wrapped around his chest, he looked like a warrior at rest after fighting a long battle.Leaning back against the chair by his bed with my body still aching from dozing off in an uncomfortable position with my hands still resting on his, unwilling to let go I closed my eyes slightly but the image of Logan walking towards me with some of Rex's blood on his body replayed in my head. The door opened behind me and I turned to see Logan walk in with clean clothes and a smile on his face while carrying two cups of coffee. He smiled at me softly as he approached before placing one of the cups on the small table beside me. "I thought you would need this," he said as he sat down on the other side of Rex's bed."Thanks," I replied gratefully

  • The Alpha's Hot Chase After Divorce    Chapter 304

    Elena's POV I was in a room, praying that the battle goes in like favour when a wolf rushed in agitation."What's going on in the battlefield?" I asked hurriedly."We were able to defeat Kingsley but..". "But what?!" I asked impatiently."The Alpha was wounded in battle and is being rushed to the hospital right now." As I heard that, I felt dread overcome me and without a second thought, I grabbed my keys."Marie!" I called out, my voice shaking. "Watch the kids for me. I have to go."Maria frowned in concern, "Elena, hold on!"But I was already out the door, my heart pounding as I drove towards the hospital.The drive to the hospital was a blur with my mind focused on getting to the hospital as fast as I could. The sounds of the radio faded into the background as my thoughts consumed me with the words of the wolf being played over and over again in my mind."What if he doesn't make it?"The very thought of that happening struck me hard at my chest like a punch. I had spent so much

    Elena's pov"What if you don't have to?" Alicia asked, "you don't really have to go back to how things were between you two and honestly, I don't think it's a good idea since things were pretty toxic between you two.""That is true." I said with a gentle nod of my head. "So I suggest that you both build something new." She replied.Hearing that, it was as if a door opened up in my mind as I began to seriously consider her opinion.The following morning, the Pack gathered at an open field which was the site of the meeting with every wolf on high alert.Standing before us was Rex with his commanding presence as he addressed the crowd. "Today we are here to fight for the future of our packs. Kingsley and Alphonso have both been controlling us for so long using just fear and manipulation and it's time to put an end to it."In response, everyone cheered in approval with some of them howling. I stood at the edge of the gathering with the women and children while looking for signs of troubl

    Elena's POV I, my twins, Marie and Alicia had moved to Rex's pack away from New Kingston. He had figured out that if we remained in New Kingston we'd be easily attacked by Kingsley and his cohorts.His mother was so filled with joy to see us finally return to the pack.Standing at the edge of Rex's pack grounds, I felt the cool air against my skin. All around me were werewolves shifting into their forms and patrolling the perimeter with their scouts running back and forth with one update after the other. Turning sideways, my eyes rested on Rex who was barking orders with authority which was expected since he was an Alpha and knew the weight of his responsibilities.Anyone else standing on the spot I stood would have felt nervous or utterly terrified but I felt oddly calm. I knew what was happening right now wasn't just about survival anymore but about standing for something and protecting the people that matter the most.As I busied myself with my thoughts, a voice broke me out of it

  • The Alpha's Hot Chase After Divorce    Chapter 301

    Logan's POVThe air in the safe house was heavy with tension with Zachary pacing the small room with his footsteps creaking rhythmically on the wooden floor. On a table situated by the side, I sat with a map spread out before me as I observed the marked locations which represented Kingsley's growing influence across the packs.Suddenly, the footsteps stopped in front of me which prompted me to raise my head only to see Zachary staring at me. "We don't have much time." He said silently. "Kingsley's plan is already in motion and Alphonso's political might will protect him if we don't act now."Do you think I do not know that?" I asked with a quirked eyebrow. "Of course I do but if we move too soon, we risk exposing our hands too early. We need to hit them where it'll hurt the most-where they least expect us to hit."Zachary folded his arms in response, he didn't look too convinced by my reasoning. "And how do you think we should do that? Kingsley has access to Alphonso's resources, the

    Elena's POV Sitting down by the kitchen table, my hands trembled slightly as I stirred my cup of tea with the clanking generated from my spoon hitting the sides of the cup grounding me. It was late in the afternoon and the sun had cast long shadows with golden patterns around the kitchen. As I did that, my mind went to the words Collins uttered the previous night with each word echoing in my head. "Rex won't see it coming. Once he's out of the way, we'll have complete control. Are you worried about Elena? You shouldn't be, She's loyal for now."I couldn't believe what I had just heard. The man I had trusted my life and the life of my kids with, the same man I let into my life had been scheming all along? I could not believe it but the weight of his betrayal pressed heavily against my chest. How could I be so blind"? Gripping the edge of my table to steady myself, I took in deep breaths and I didn't notice one of my kids come close to me. "Mom!"Kanu called, startling me, which ca

    Elena's POV.Hearing the faint hum of the coffee machine in the background alongside the sound of the TV and the sound of laughter from Kiana and Kanu should have brought me a sense of peace and comfort but in the particular situation I'm in, it only brought me unease with my hand tightening around my cellphone while I stared at it.I had sent Collins a text a while ago which he had left unanswered and that made me extremely anxious. "Mom!" Kiana shouted, his voice interrupting my thoughts. "Kanu is cheating again and I do not like it!"With a sigh of exhaustion, I dropped the phone into my pocket before turning around and walking into the living room and there stood Kanu on the sofa, triumphantly holding the game controller in his hand and high over his head with Kiana by the side glaring at him with her little hands balled into fists."I am not cheating!" Kanu yelled back, while jumping away as Kiana tried to snatch the controller from him."Okay, that's enough." I said, stepping b
