Collins’ POV.

My great mood hadn't faded by the time I returned back to the bar which was located on the beach. I looked at the lovely and lively serenity as I watched how it was calm, and I could hear the waves of the sea. I loved the harmonious view of it and finally, I felt like this was where my long run was definitely coming to an end.

I still couldn't get the lady I bumped into out of my head, and I couldn't deny the fact that she was the reason why I was still having this excitement inside me. My first day as the newly employed supervisor was going perfectly fine.

I wished to see more of her but then, ‘what if I never get to see her again?’ I groaned at the thought of it as I remembered that she wasn't just any worker here, but she was the personal secretary of the boss himself.

I turned around as I looked at the skyscraper which was so high, that the sun could possibly blind the eyes of anyone who dared to look that high.

I turned on my current favorite song as I wanted a

    Marie’s POV.“Aunty. Marie.” Kanu and Kiana screamed at the top of their voices the moment I stepped in. “We have missed you a lot.” Kiana said with so much excitement in her voice as I carried them up. “I have missed you both too.” I said with a broad smile, then kissed both of them. “And how has school been?” I asked them, while I looked at both of them. “I made new friends today.” Kiana mumbled as she looked at me. I could feel the full blown excitement as she went on talking about her newly made friends.Elena stepped out from the kitchen as she looked at me. I could see she was stressed out and she wasn’t in the mood to have any chat. I dropped Kanu and Kiana down as I allowed them to continue with their play. “Hey, you don’t look good. Are you okay?” I asked as I looked at her. She rolled her eyes as she looked at me.“I am. You know, I still can’t explain what Rex is up to. Why would he make me his personal secretary in the first place?” She sighed as she rolled her eyes, t

    Owen's POV.BOECH."Hey, good morning, Owen." I turned around as I saw Tricia. I looked at her red lipstick which made her full lips more seductive."Good morning, Tricia." I responded as I smiled broadly. "How was your night?" I asked, while I walked her down to where her desk was."I'm fine." She smiled, tilting her lips as she looked at me. "And you? How was your night?" She winked at me as she looked at me.I knew what she was doing. I furrowed my eyebrows as I looked at her. "My night was beautiful too, Tricia." I responded as I looked at her. She smiled at me as she bit her lower lip. "I know what you are doing." I smirked as I looked at her eyes. "About the night in the bar, can we…" "It's totally fine." She chuckled softly as she looked at me. "I loved it and I am looking forward to going to the beach for the movie night." She said with a smile as she looked at me."Really?" I sneered as I smiled. "What exactly did you love?" I questioned as she blushed. "That is it!!" I c

    CLEVELAND. Connor & Co Real Estate Firm.Helen's POV.There was something soothing about the lawyer's party that Kingsley held, and for the first time, I stayed up really late at night. Even though my body was exhausted from meeting new people. I loved everything about Cleveland, and having Kingsley spend the remaining hours of the party with me was super fantastic. I must say, he isn't just a devilishly hot CEO but a one hell of a crazy Alpha male. And today, I was more than excited about returning to work. As a young lawyer, I knew I had a lot to do, and growing up in New Kingston and being a member of one of the powerful founding families in New Kingston, I knew what being a lawyer came with. I missed the whole night partying with Owen, Jack, Tricia, Logan and Peterson. Logan was the youngest amongst us but then, he was regarded as our equal because he was from the most powerful founding families, and his father, Alphonso Bohen was the reason I was in Cleveland land.

    New Kingston. The Eleven. Collins Morgan POV. If there is anything I came to desire, it was to linger in this place. I was quick to fall in love with the quiet and stillness of the place. And most importantly, the lady I had bumped into yesterday. It felt like forever as throughout that day, I wasn't opportune to set my eyes on her again. I enjoyed my new job as a supervisor, because I had no distractions around, and also, another day to have a peaceful life without shutting the windows of my room because of the neighbors who lived next door. This was my dream job in getting a perfect apartment and I no longer had to wake up very early in the morning and drive my motorcycle around New Kingston, searching for a job. And most importantly, no impromptu job invitation that ends up ruining my day and leaving me completely frustrated after I return home without a job. Talking about me, Collins Morgan, the guy with long eyelashes, hazel eyes and light brown freckles, I had one thi

    Marie’s POVHe smirked as he looked at me and yet, I still had my wolf sprawling all because of his presence, despite the embarrassment I was experiencing right at that moment. “See you later, Marie.” Elena said as she forced out a smile. She left her soda with me, making me feel more stupid as I couldn't look at Clark. I quickly took my hands to my back as I looked at him, forcing out a smile, and seeing the reflection of my face made me more sober as I looked like someone who was about to cry. “Okay, Marie. Take a chill breath. In and out.” I exhaled heavily as I looked at him. “So thoughtful of you getting an extra soda.” He finally broke his minutes of silence and looked at me from head to toe like he was sizing me up. He wore an effortless smile as he looked at me and his right hand, stretched out as he wanted one of the sodas.“How could I possibly explain that one of the sodas belongs to Elena who just successfully ditched me?” I scowled as he looked at me, still smiling in

    Elena's POV.To be honest, this is probably my favorite part of the day. For some reason, the best time every 9-5 worker gets is when they get back from work. Kanu and Kiana had gone to bed immediately after dinner which I found weird. And talking about Marie, she was still setting up the record and right at this point, I couldn't help but thank God that I was not in the finance department.I stepped out from the shower as I packed my black, wavy hair in a bun as I wore a white vest, and bum shorts that had white stripes at the side. I still couldn't understand why Rex made me his personal secretary in the first place. It all seemed like he just made me his personal secretary just to pamper me. Even though Rex and I have been working in perfect synchronization during the day, it still hasn't changed the way I think of him and I knew what he was trying to do but then, I wished I could just walk up to him and let him know that no matter how much he tried to get me back, he wasn't ever

    CLEVELAND. Connor & Co Real Estate Firm. Helen's POV.I'm in a great mood as I walked into the Connor & Co Real Estate Firm. And as I walked into the building, dressed in my white shirt and black skirt that held my thighs well, and a sleeveless black jacket that was well fitted, I could feel this fast rushing sensation that was spreading through my spines. There was absolutely no way I could deny the fact that I was already falling head over heels for Kingsley. I proceeded to the elevator as I walked in and luckily for me, I was the only one in the elevator. I couldn't stop thinking about yesterday's night and whenever I remember how gentlemanly he was, I couldn't help but fall deeply for him. And whenever I had such current passing through my body, it was as a result of excessive excitement. “But why am I so excited about him?” I groaned lightly as I bit my lower lip. It was just five days here in Cleveland and I couldn't even at least control the feelings that were paving a way

    Owen's POV.I sat down across the table as I kept staring at Collins who remained quiet."I know you went speechless the very moment you saw my message." He muttered as he wore a grin."What do you want from me?" I asked as I frowned."You should know better by now, Owen. Your face doesn't scare me a bit!!" He snapped as he looked at him. I exhaled sharply as I looked at how confident he had become. Five years of being on the run ever since our last encounter in Massachusetts which never ended well. It happened so fast but then, with my father being the second strongest werewolf Alpha in New Kingston, and a successful businessman in Massachusetts which made it completely easy to get out. "You know what I find amusing?" I scowled as I looked at him. He rolled his eyes as he crossed his right leg across his left leg. He gently raised his head as he looked at me with his eyes which weren't widely open."I find your audacity commendable. Coming right into my city. Do you think you sta

    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

    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

    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
