THE EVENTMadonna's povOn getting to the event, I was amazed by how big the venue was. Just the parking lot alone was holding a whole lot cars of different colours and brands. Climbing out of the car and making my way out before Xavier could reach me to do that, I slammed the door shut.Looking around as we walked inside, I was dumbstruck. I don't exactly know the event that was going on here but the crowd alone was enough to tell me how much glamorous it's going to be." What's this event for?" I find myself asking Xavier who was staring right at his phone's screen, concentrated." Business related. "His reply came short and simple. As I gave a short nod, we finally stepped foot into the hall everything was taking place and I couldn't help the small gasp that fell off my lips in the process.The chandelier light was shinning brightly over everyone and by each step we took, the sparkling clean flooring glimmered below our feet. Then the great deal was walking past the bunch of bodie
CHALLENGED" What am I doing here?!" Madonna palmed her face, peeking out through her fingers as she screamed; her eyes bypassing Xavier that was just right before her seated on a sofa with his legs crossed as he flipped through the magazine in her hand, feigning unaware.Filled with annoyance, she yanked the bedsheet away from her body. About to stand up from the bed, she found her legs entangled through the sheets, causing her to groan, flipping her legs out it. Successfully shoooting it out, she climbed out of bed and ventured towards him." I said what am I doing here?" She asked him once again, placing her hand at akimbo as he finally looked up at her.The last thing she could remember was coming to this party with him as his date. Yes, everything felt plain boring to her that she had to go for a drink from the helpless bartender but then, she remembered how Circle also happened to be there, looking at her as though she wants nothing than to feed on her blood.And then what happ
OVER A DECADEUnknown's povIt has been a few days since I agreed to execute Beatnick and reveal myself to my pack. I am trying to imagine myself as a strong, powerful leader. Alpha and I have attended several meetings for hours at a time with the Pack Council, consisting of Kane, Woodland, and the man who drove me to the estate for the first time, Chandler.We ae in one now, sitting in Alpha's conference room that was decorated in ebony and dark oak. Alpha sits at the head of the table, I on his left, and Kane on his right. We face each other and I note that Kane is looking extremely impatient. Next to me sits Chandler, and older gentlemen. I can't figure out what his position might be until I search my mind for the books that I've been reading. Instead of exploring like I wanted to be, I was shut up in Alpha's room most of the time, going through book after book. Alpha didn't want me working in the days leading up to the execution apparently. Across from the Elder, Woodland sits l
LIKE DIRTY SAVAGESI lean up against the window in my bedroom, watching my Natalia sleeping so peacefully. The canopy is pulledback slightly from when she crawled into bed, after kissing my arm goodnight. There is pain in my chest as a result of not being able to touch her, to feel her perfect skin, to make her mine. My brother is snuggled in a warm,naked embrace with his mate tonight, and I stand watching mine from a distance that seems like a thousand miles. But I know that Kane suffers in adifferent way. His mate is dying. He can't mark her because it would cause an outrage within the pack. Beingnear him helps, but she still deteriorates from the inside. Emalin is too stubborn to have him mark her before theirwedding, so it has become my responsibility to make sure it all comes together within the next month, so that they can wed before the next full moon passes.I kissed Natalia on her perfect head, and slip out of the dark bedroom, lit only by the glow of the nearly full mo
SHE'S HERELate at night, Madonna and Savannah were woken up by the frantic light knocks coming repeatedly on the window. Savannah was the first to climb out of bed and when Madonna finally did, it was with a displeased groan." Now who could that be?" Rubbing at her eyes, she asked Savannah who had now stopped by the window- hesitant." I don't know but the knocks isn't stopping either. I'm thinking I should open it while you should be at alert to scream out when it turns out to be a rogue, a mafia or…" Savannah quickly clamped her mouth shut, knowing not to utter the words that would scare her off." Never mind, just do as I said." She finally find her off and receiving a scaredy nod from Madonna, she turned towards the window.Meanwhile, Madonna's heart had began to pound horrifically.Opening the window, Savannah gasped. " What are you doing here?"Crap! How? How's this even possible? She's here- This feels like a nightmare cause it's just too unbelievable." Please, just let me i
PRESSURED" You aren't worried?" Madonna stated rather than asked, looking over at Savannah and giving her a dubious look. Savannah flipped through the pages of the file in her hand, quite aggressive before shaking her head in response to Madonna's query." I don't know but you should have let her spend the night here last night." Almost getting a whiplash, Savannah jerked her head towards her, not believing her ears.Giving her the look, she shrugged nonchalantly, not taking back her words.Savannah slammed the file shut before springing up her feet, adjusting her dress. Not giving her another glance, she shoved the file back under the bed before turning around to head out." You didn't hear what I had just said?" Madonna raised a brow at her, only letting go of her wrist when she'd succeeded in obstructing her way." I thought you should know better than trying to support her. Incase you don't know, she's the main reason why the triplets hates me so much. She can go wherever she wan
A LITTLE AFFECTION " Go right there at the garden and get me the necklace that's right here." Pointing down at it, he bellowed and the guard ran out of the room. Then he furiously snapped his head towards them.One of them knows about how the mistress had got in.Madonna quickly went to stand by Savannah's side, holding tightly unto her as Oliver looked away from them once again, his concentration on the necklace. About few seconds later, the guard could be seen right there in the garden. As quick as he was sighted, Oliver pointed his index finger down towards the necklace direction and steadily, the guard began to trail his eyes down to where the Alpha's finger is pinpointed." I really don't think we can escape his wrath this time around." Madonna leaned closer to Savannah's ear and whispered, causing her to gulp intently as her fear heighten. Without been aware, her hand grabbed the hem of her crop top, fisting it tightly in her grip." What do you think we should do? We… I need
CHALLENGING HIM"Get your hands off me."Swatting at her hands, Savannah scowled and rising up her feet, she stalked out of the room, not bothering to shut the door behind her.Madonna didn't even attempt to follow her. She might need some space and she's going to have to stay on a safe distance till she's ready to be out of her shell again. Meanwhile, Geneva ushered one of the best spies in, pointing out a seat for him. Bowing, Jack sat down. Instantly Geneva left what he was appending his signatures on, to lean closer towards him. " I'm already aware you're an expert at this so am just going to cut the chase. There's someone I need you to keep a tab on.""Alright Alpha." Receiving an affirmative response from Jack, he slid his hand into his drawer and getting his hand on the small photograph, he retrieved his hand and placed it down on the table before Jack. " That's it. Even though you don't have to work from within, you can just do that outside." He spoke and Jack shook his head,
