Adrian's POV

"My assistant will send the details to you. Till we next meet," Sophia said. I could hear my feet tapping restlessly against the wooden floor, my fingers scratching the arm of my swivel chair while she spoke.

"I'll be waiting. Goodbye, Miss Crane," I said, and the line went dead. I clicked my tongue.

I don't know what seemed scarier: the next meeting or the warning she'd issued, but I knew I had to keep an eye on Emily before she caused a bigger scene.

"Emily," I said. Her name now tasted like slime in my mouth. "So much for being there for you."

"You're lucky she hasn't called off the deal... yet." Here we go again. I groaned and rolled my eyes. It was Ares, with his pessimism, trying to overwhelm my newfound relief.

"The last thing I need is your negativity," I said lazily, stretching my legs on a stool as I extended my body to full length.

He let out a devilish smirk, and before he could go on with one of his "I told you so" speeches, I shut the link. I'd had enough to

    Adrian's POV"I'll be leaving for Atlanta tomorrow," I said, bent over the railing with a mug of hot coffee in my right hand.My day always began with sipping hot black coffee and staring over the balcony at the park. It was one of the few peaceful activities I did."Why?" Reynold asked beside me. He too was enjoying the view as the wind tousled his hair, leaving it a ruffled mess."Business. More meetings, more investors to meet. Basically just adding the finishing touches," I shrugged and brought the mug to my lips."Do I get to come?" Reynold asked airily, but I knew he was dying to come. I smirked."Unfortunately, no. Since my wonderful Luna can't be trusted, you'll have to stay here and fill in my space," I said, letting out a sigh. Reynold was supposed to be going with me. When Violet was around, I usually traveled with him, but now, because Miss Dangerous was in her tantrum era, I couldn't risk it."And yeah, your dad's in the pack," Reynold announced after clearing his throat.

    VIOLET POV Nothing about the day hinted at disaster, especially not with Harry flashing me his adorable smile."Good morning, Momma," he said, a wide grin spreading across his face as he stood at my bed."Morning, cupcake," I cooed. Tapping on my nightstand, my fingers found the familiar circle button of my alarm, and I turned it off before rolling over so that I was now lying on my stomach, a sense of tiredness washing over me. Sighing, I sat up straight as I reminded myself about my flight and that I needed to drop this little lad off at school.Harry went all too soft on me as I pulled him to my body. "I love you, cupcake.""I love you more, Mom," his response made my heart feel at ease.A soft knock on my door diverted my gaze. "Come in!" I uttered, and the door opened as Ellen, Harry's nanny, walked inside."I'm sorry, Ms. Crane, I need to get Harry prepared for school." Staring down at Harry, who was still dressed in his pajamas, I sighed. It was nice of him to walk into my roo

    I felt my heart catch in my throat as I heard her sharp, piercing scream through the phone, followed by a thunderous sound. My heart thudded, and it was as if a part of me was hurt; my chest pounded heavily. "Violet? Sophia?" Ares roared. I felt helpless, as if the world had collapsed around me. The silence that followed was deafening, each second stretching into eternity. Fear gripped me, making it hard to breathe, and I struggled to stay calm. "Stay with me," I whispered, hoping against hope that they could hear me. "Please, stay with me.""Turn the car around!" I ordered Reynold. He gave me a confused look, clueless about what had just happened, but he dared not question me. Not when I was in that state."Where are we going?" he asked finally, after making a sharp turn. Realization dawned on me that I didn't know the address to her house. It felt as if my world was crumbling."Sophia Crane's house," I said, hoping he knew where she lived. But the quizzical look on his face told

    I was dazzled staring at Adrian. How on earth did he know my house? How did he know I was living here? I was startled, my chest tightened, and at that moment, I felt a sudden urge to be closer to his body, hug him closer to myself and be lost in those muscular arms of his.I needed that hug, that comfort he once offered. I wanted to be his Violet, even if just for a moment. As if reading my thoughts, one minute he was standing inches away from me, the next minute he pulled me into an embrace. His strong arm wrapping tightly around my back.The scent of his familiar cologne filled my senses, melting away my every defense. Though I was still shaken from the incident earlier, right now, I felt a strange relief. It was as if he was my heaven.His intoxicating scent was messing with my head, and I doubted I could breathe. All I could imagine were his hands on me, his firm lips on mine. The erratic beating of his chest brought back memories of years ago, when he always pulled me into his a

    Call me crazy, but since settling inside the room I chose, I could barely rest. All thought narrows to her. Sophia Crane. The medical team had declared her fine. But how was she faring?Each time I hear a grumbling sound, I delve straight to the wall, hoping I'd hear anything, something I couldn't think of. But just a clue. A clue of something I couldn't place? I don't even know what I want. How sane am I?One minute I was present in my room, pacing from one end to another, the next, I found myself at her door."Do it!" Ares ordered. My hands were shaky, but I knew I had to because I needed to stop this madness of pacing around. I couldn't tell what's wrong with me, but it was like she was a drug to calm my nerves."Do I have to remind you that there's Violet?" I queried him, wondering why he would choose to be concerned for Sophia Crane instead of his mate."And do I have to remind you that Sophia Crane is suspicious? There's something about her that drives us insane. You can feel it

    My heart was racing wildly, slamming the bathroom door close, I held my chest feeling the erratic beating."Damn! What the hell had just happened?" I'm pacing around the bathroom, my hand raking nervously through my hair. Did we just kissed? Did he... Oh fvkc! I've really let my guard down!This wasn't the fvcking plan. What if he gets to find out that I was Violet. I mean I might have change everything about me, but I was still the very same Violet, his ex wife. "You caused this, Aria!" I tossed at her, because she was the one that pushed me to him, even the moon goddess knew I wanted to fight him, and pushed him away from him. But Aria's hunger wouldn't be controlled."You wouldn't blame me, he is our mate. And what were your thinking playing such dangerous game?" She snapped back at me."What game?" I retorted back."You didn't think he was going to get aroused perceiving your scent with only a towel tied round your bust? That's fvcking seductive. And he is our mate, remember,""

    Today was meant to be a great start for the business deal with the Wolfes. But I had already gotten down with my ex-husband.Staring at the mirror before me, I applied blush to my face. I wasn’t really into makeup, but ever since the whole Sophia Crane facade, I’d become a fan. Mostly because of how it brought out the bold personality I now wore like armor.My phone chimed. I picked it up from the table and read the message. It was from Xavier."About the incident," he wrote. "Claire informed me it was an accident." I frowned, my heart skipping a beat, and texted back, "What do you mean?""A popular actress was around your estate, and your car is similar to hers. There’s a mistake—the bomb was meant for her, not a direct assault on you."I let out a sigh as I read the text, feeling a wave of relief. At least it wasn’t a targeted attack. I knew I didn’t have any personal enemies, though being at the top comes with plenty of haters. But I’d never directly offended anyone.I exhaled deep

    I hadn’t been myself since that kiss. Memories of her taste kept flooding my mind. Damn it! I wasn't supposed to have such sinful thoughts, especially when she was our business partner.The meeting about the project was just minutes away, but I couldn’t stop thinking. 'What the hell have I done?' Would she still regard me as a business partner? Or would she call off the deal? What kind of trance had I fallen into?I was always the one to keep personal relationships far from business. But with Sophia Crane, it was something else entirely.I was all dressed up and heading to the private lounge for the meeting. Two thoughts ran through my mind: she might call it off, and then we’d all return to our various lives, or maybe… With Sophia Crane, I couldn’t even tell. She was a mystery.The meeting started, but I couldn’t bear to look her in the eyes, not after what had happened.Her voice cut through the room, bold and commanding, as if she had the world under her feet.

    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.

    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
