ADRIAN

I shook my head as I heard the secretary of the Hunter Corporation repeating the same words she had been saying for the past week. This was bullshit, crap!

I'm not a child to be tossed around like a two-year-old being promised candy. This was business. I understand they're at the top and all, but on a more professional level, it is more preferable to either tell the other party—namely, me—that they don't want to collaborate, rather than stringing me along like a toy.

The other day, my team waited for an hour, only to be told the CEO had just concluded a meeting and needed to rest. If it wasn't that, she needed to eat. I'm done with these humans.

Who do they think they are, to make an Alpha like me their human toy?

"Yes, Claire. What do you have to say this time? She's busy? She wants to eat or perhaps polish her legs? I don't care about the bullshit you have prepared. You can't keep my team and me waiting for two hours and then come back with some lame excuse. Where's the cons

    I couldn't stop laughing as I watched the scene that was transpiring from the CCTV footage. He looked like a fool, just how I wanted it.But then, I had never seen him this riled up, this frustrated. I watched as anger coursed through him, and his eyes changed. "This is just the start, Adrian Wolfe, trust me. I can't wait to see him break, to see him down.""Revenge," they say, "is best served cold." But I'm just getting started.The Wolfe Empire was ranking second, and I'm anticipating seeing it rank last. To see that look of frustration on his face. "This is just the start, Adrian, take my word for it."I took a sip from the hot coffee Claire had served me with. For some damn reason, it tasted so nice.I watched on when he pushed Claire and was about to head to my office. I was seething with rage. I had wanted to call the security to throw him out of the company. But then Xavier appeared, and I stilled.Somehow, he was able to resolve the issue with Adrian. I couldn't hear what he h

    "Momma, come give me a hug," my four-year-old son, Harry, chided, pulling me close for an embrace.My face lit up with a smile as I stared at the mini version of my rivalry; he had every feature of him—his eyes, his hair color. Mine was red, which I'd dyed black now. And his was jet black, just like his father. Nature really cheated me. I was the one who had all the fuss in carrying him, and yet he didn’t get to have any of my features. That’s cool, isn’t it?“You’re such a big baby,” I cooed, pulling his soft little body into mine. He was my home, my solace. And a reminder of the position I once held.I ruffled his hair. “Harry, Momma has to get to work, okay? Nana will drop you at school,” I smiled at him, referring to my grandmother, who always liked accompanying him to school even though we had a nanny and a driver. She was just the coolest.Harry's face pulled into a frown. I knew what was coming next; this little lad had always insisted I pick him up after school.“How about a c

    ADRIAN"You know, for someone who swore on the moon goddess' name, you didn't look as upset as you claimed," Reynold's voice cut through sharply as soon as we stepped out of Hunter Enterprises.I shot him a stern look, and he immediately made a gesture indicating he would keep his mouth shut.Sophia Crane. The name rang a bell. I had expected her to be annoyingly obnoxious, and I was ready to voice my objections during the meeting, perhaps even call off the collaboration to preserve our pride. But then, it didn’t go as I had assumed.She was so different. Her eye color, her hair dyed black, but then her nose... it all pointed to one person—Violet, my ex-wife.She reminded me of Violet. And for a moment, Ares seemed pleased. I could feel it too. The spark, the way she arched her brow, her smile... everything. Aside from the fact that she looked so serious.The look of exasperation on her face—something didn’t sit right. There was something amiss, and I could sense it strongly. Even Are

    EMILYI may not be the Luna they want me to be, but as a top model, getting an endorsement deal with Saint Management was all I needed to keep my career alive. I mean, that's a long dream come true.The last few weeks have been busy—attending their official interview and then passing it. Today was meant to mark a new beginning with them. I couldn't wait to tell Adrian about this. He would be thrilled, even though he hates me now. But I did what I did to keep my man. He was mine from the start, before Violet stole him from me.Though I didn’t mean for her to die or to go through whatever she went through, I just couldn’t stand my best friend stealing my man in just a flash. She hurt me first by marrying Adrian even though she knew we were in love. Yes, I knew he was her mate, but she knew about how crazily in love I was with Adrian, and yet she went ahead to marry him.I was hurt and betrayed.

    AdrianThere was something inside me that kept making me smile, but I couldn't tell what it was. It felt like I'd found inner peace. Even Ares was calm."Alpha!" Reynold's annoying scream pierced through my ears. I paused eating and drank the water next to my plate."What is it, Reynold?" I gave him a questioning look, wondering why he had screamed my name out of the blue."Do you realize I've been calling your name for the umpteenth time?" He looked at me bewildered, as if something was wrong. I had been lost in my thoughts and didn't realize."You're so different since you met Sophia Crane. I really can't tell what spell she put you under. You've been acting strange," Reynold voiced out. He was always the least afraid of me, calling a spade a spade."What do you mean?" I scowled at him, my heart giving a funny leap at the mention of her name. I wouldn't lie, the effect she had on me might be true."Oh, come on! Don't deny it. You've been smiling, and you finished your entire meal. T

    ADRIAN"So, it's no longer flowers? It's a date now?" Reynold narrowed his eyes at me, referring to the dinner I was going to have with Sophia Crane.I gave him a stern look. He was such a pest. "Look, it's just business. It's nothing serious," I replied, staring at my reflection in the mirror. I wasn't looking all that bad in an all-black outfit."At this point, I'm wondering if you have feelings for me. You should invest your time looking for your mate," I teased him, though I knew he was watching out for Violet.He chuckled lightly as he stood to his feet. "Even if I were gay, you'd be the last person I'd be checking out." His response got me."I'll assume you're driving there alone. I've got work to do," Reynold said, walking to the door and shutting it behind him.I grabbed the car keys, and within minutes, I was driving on the highway.Heartbeats later, I arrived at Neon Lotus. Memories flooded back, and I could only think of Violet and our last date here.Spotting Sophia Crane

    Emily's POVHave you ever felt like an arrow is stabbed through your chest? That's how I feel right now, staring at the scandal on my phone."Screw her!" My jaws clenched as my eyes fell on the caption above "Sophia Crane and Adrian Wolfe..." I could feel my face slowly scrunch up as it colored. Without bothering to read further, the position they were in was annoying enough."Damn!" I spat as I stared daggers at Adrian's smiling face in the picture. He was dressed in his dark tux, his arms encircling the waist of a model-looking lady. Of course, that was Sophia Crane. The pain I was feeling was nothing compared to my actions. I didn't sidetrack my best friend to have another bitchy lady steal my man.I hissed as my eyes darted toward the lady. Peering closely, her face looked oddly familiar. There was something peculiar about the way the tip of her nose was slightly upturned and her smile—it was wide and bright. It seemed so strange yet familiar.That was the least of my problems. M

    Emily's POVAfter working my way for several years into Adrian's life, the last thing I wanted was for a random woman to step in at the slightest crack, and this Sophia Crane lady seemed to have a good time playing that game. Now it all made sense; I could easily tell her motive now. It was easy—she wanted Adrian, and then she backed me off from the modeling contract. Devilish was not a word I could use to compare. It was tit for tat.My fingers tapped restlessly against the steering wheel while I watched the whole scene play out in my head. Glancing at my watch, I rolled my eyes. Why did time feel so slow?A black Bentley pulled up in front of the hotel, and that was my cue to act. Unfastening my seatbelt, I set up and waited for my prey to appear."Perfect," I sighed out as soon as I spotted Sophia Crane. My lips fell into a big pout while I watched her smile at the press, her well-manicured hands waving enthusiastically as she grinned."We'll see how long that smile lasts," I scoff

    Violet POV I wake up feeling sore but utterly satisfied. My body aches with the remnants of last night, Adrian's touch still lingering on my skin. A soft smile tugs at my lips as I stretch, expecting to feel his warmth beside me. But when I turn, the bed is empty.Frowning, I sit up, wrapping the sheets around me. Where did he go?Before I can call out for him, the door creaks open.Adrian steps in, dressed in only sweatpants, his toned chest bare, his dark hair still damp from a shower. But what catches my attention is the small velvet box in his hands.My breath hitches.He walks toward me with that confident stride, his piercing eyes locking onto mine. My heart starts hammering in my chest."Adrian?" My voice is barely above a whisper.He stops in front of me, and without a second's hesitation, he sinks down to one knee.I gasp, my hand flying to my mouth."Violet," he begins, his voice steady but thick with emotion.

    Violet's POVI barely have a moment to catch my breath before Adrian lifts me into his arms, his grip strong and possessive. My body is still trembling, my mind hazy from the pleasure he just wrung out of me, but the hunger in his eyes tells me he's far from done."We're not finished," he growls, his voice thick with desire.I shudder at the dark promise in his tone.Adrian strides out of the pool, his muscles flexing with each determined step. Water drips from his body, soaking me in the process, but I don't care. My fingers tangle in his damp hair, my lips pressing against the curve of his jaw, his neck. I can't get enough of him.His grip tightens around me as he carries me through the pack house, ignoring the startled glances from a few passing pack members. My cheeks burn, but Adrian doesn't slow down. His focus is solely on me-on us.By the time we reach his room, my arousal is pulsing all over again. He kicks the door shut behind him, then pins me against it.His lips crash aga

    ADRIAN POV I pulled my finger out from her already wet dripping pussy, and she squirms.My cock aches, hard and pulsing, but I hold back, watching her beneath me. Violet is trembling, her breath coming out in soft, desperate gasps as she squirms against the wall."You enjoy teasing me, don't you?" I murmur, dragging my lips down her throat, my teeth grazing her pulse. Her body shudders, her nails digging into my shoulders."Adrian..." she breathes, her voice laced with frustration.I chuckle darkly. "No, sweetheart. You don't get to say my name like that-not after the hell you put me through."She glares at me, her stubbornness flashing in those beautiful eyes, but the desperation in them is unmistakable. She wants this. She needs this.I press my knee between her thighs, spreading her legs wider, feeling the heat radiating from her core. My fingers glide down her stomach, teasing the waistband of her shorts."I can smell you, Violet," I whisper, my fingers just barely ghosting over

    ADRIAN POV The Rogue Alpha had stopped screaming a while ago. Now, he only groaned, barely clinging to consciousness as his severed fingers lay discarded on the cold floor. Blood pooled beneath him, I barely noticed.I crouched in front of him, gripping his chin and forcing his head up. His swollen, bloodshot eyes struggled to focus on me."I told you," I murmured, my voice eerily calm. "You were going to die a slow, painful death."His lips curled into a weak, mocking smirk. "Just kill me already,?" His breath hitched, his body convulsing from the pain.I narrowed my eyes, my grip tightening painfully. "You're already dead. It's just a matter of when."He let out a hoarse chuckle, but I was done listening. My fist connected with his jaw, the crack of bone satisfying as his body slumped forward.Without another glance, I turned and walked out of the dungeon, slamming the door behind me.The cool evening breeze was exactly what I needed to cool the heat Of battle still pulsing through

    VIOLET POV The moment I open my eyes, my first thought goes to Adrian-the mate mark on my neck burning like a reminder.His voice reaches me, low and desperate, as he sits beside my bed, repeating over and over again, "Sit up. Don't die on me."It aches... watching him suffer, knowing his mate, the one he stood beside, waiting so patiently to wake up, didn't even recognize him.The Shadow Alpha... I'm glad he's beaten down. But why am I doing this? Honestly, I don't even know. The plan I made was half-baked, driven by instinct more than logic.But Mason? He's sharp enough to see right through me. He knows I'm just pranking him."You enjoy needling him, don't you?" Mason asks the moment Adrian storms out of the room, his heavy footsteps echoing down the hallway.I turn to look at him, the laughter I'd been holding back finally breaking free. "Did you see his face?" I chuckle, shaking my head. "He looked like he was ready to rip your throat out."Mason grins, lounging back against the

    Adrian POV Three days.Three fucking days.But it doesn't feel like just three days of agony. It feels like a lifetime. Like I'm drowning in slow motion, gasping for air while the world watches and does nothing.Harry's been calling me Daddy like he's afraid I'll disappear if he stops. He's been jumping around, tugging at my hand, showing me drawings he made in the hospital's playroom. He even drew one of Violet, him, and me. A perfect little family, all smiles and holding hands.But that's a fucking lie.Because Violet had to pretend.After the doctors explained everything-her memory loss, the gaps in her mind that swallowed me whole-she agreed to go along with the truth for Harry's sake. Not mine. Just Harry's."Daddy, look! I made another one!" Harry beams, holding up a messy drawing of us with stick arms and lopsided smiles. "This is you, Mommy, and me! We're fighting bad guys together!"I force a smile. It feels fake. Stiff."That's awesome, buddy," I say, ruffling his dark hair

    ADRIAN POV "Violet, I love you. And I promise to make everything right. Just give me this chance and come back... please." My bears frantically as I say these words. Ares is clawing right at me. It's another day of saying the same words, over and over again.I've battled demons that won't let me sleep. Nightmares. Guilt. Regret. But I refuse to break."I won't give up. No, I can't give up," I mutter, gripping her cold, lifeless hand like it's the only thing keeping me grounded.My body tingles from the contact, the familiar warmth of her skin, even in its fragile state. I miss her, we missed her. Ares and I. Her smiles... How her eyes sparkles... How she looks when she's angry and wants to deliver a warning. The soft looks of her eyes. I fucking miss all of it and more."Sweetheart, please," I whisper, brushing a loose strand of hair from her pale face. "Harry misses you so much. He won't stop talking about everything you taught him-the nasty tricks, too. Like how you'd seize his

    Adrian POV It's been two days, and I haven't moved an inch away from where Violet lay. She was all I fucking had.I almost lost her. She almost died. I felt her die."Alpha, you need to rest," Reynold's voice cuts through the silence that was existing I'm the room. I turn my head slowly, blinking at him.Rest? That's an understatement. I don't want to move. I want to sit here, watch her breathe, and make sure her chest rises and falls every goddamn second.The doctor says she's in a coma and will need a few days to recover. I want to be the first person she sees when her eyes flutter open. The first person she calls. The first person to watch her smile again, bright and alive.No. I can't. I won't move from here."What about Alpha Valenwood?" I ask, voice hoarse from hours of silence. He'd checked up on her and had been staying in my pack house ever since."He's still there, bonding with Harry," Reynold reports, his gaze softening. "Speaking of Harry... he hasn't touched a bite of fo

    Adrian POV Ares growls inside me, restless and furious. We're holding our mate in our arms, but she's lifeless. Whatever the fucker injected into that syringe had done its job, and now Violet's life is slipping through my fingers. He won't die easily. Not after this."Reynold," I mind-link, voice sharp as steel. "Capture that bastard. I want him rotting in the pack dungeon. No one touches him but me.""Understood, Alpha," Reynold replies, his tone matching my rage.By the time I storm into my pack's hospital, Violet's body cradled against my chest, everyone freezes. Gasps echo through the hallway, but I don't care. My only prayer is that Harry's still indoors, far from witnessing this nightmare."Alpha!" Dr. Lee rushes toward me, eyes wide."Get to fucking work! She's losing breath. She's dying, Lee! Do something!" My voice cracks as I lay her on the bed, the same damn bed I once bled out on.Dr. Lee doesn't waste a second. He mutters commands, nurses scrambling around like clockwork
