*DAMON*I saw Sarah run to me and give me a hug. I was surprised and stood there stiffly for a moment, wondering what she was doing. Then, she seemed to realize what she was doing, and her hug started to loosen. Before she could let go completely, I pulled her closer and hugged her back tightly. I could feel her starting to lose her breath as I held her tightly.She struggled to speak, saying, “Alpha… Da… Damon,” her words muffled. I let go of her, and she started coughing. “You shouldn’t have tried something you couldn’t handle,” I told her, my focus on her dry pink lips. I felt a strong urge to moisturize them with mine, but Zac held me back.“Not now, man, not now,” he said in my mind. It took a lot to stop myself from kissing her.“I’m sorry. I wasn’t thinking clearly,” she apologized, avoiding eye contact.“Obviously,” I remarked simply. I turned around and walked to my chair.“Meet up with Myles, he’ll give you something,” I said without facing her. I sat at my table, took out
ALPHA DAMON'S POV I woke up slowly and heard soft voices. When I fully opened my eyes, I saw a bright ceiling with soft lights. Looking around, all I could see was a large room. "Doctor, he's awake," a woman's voice said. I realized I was in a hospital room. I tried moving and was relieved that I could. "Relax," I heard a familiar friendly male voice, Jones', reassured me. Realizing it was him, I knew I was in a hospital, a VIP room to be precise. "What happened?" I asked slowly, struggling to remember. "Wait a moment," Jones said, taking a break to examine me. He wasn't just our family doctor; he was also a close friend. "Ouch," I groaned, feeling a strong headache. "Are you alright?" Jones inquired. "My head hurts," I replied, touching my forehead and noticing a bandage. "I'll give you a sedative injection now," he informed me. While Jones continued with his tasks, Sarah entered the room from afar. "Alpha Damon!" she called out excitedly and rushed over to hug me tightly,
Sarah’s POVI told the driver to turn the car around, but he wouldn’t listen. I thought he might not have heard me, so I said it again.“I said turn the car around.” Before I could finish, he grabbed my neck with one hand while steering with the other.I screamed and tried to push his hand away. He couldn’t focus on driving properly, and as I struggled, he lost control of the car.Then, I heard a loud crash as we drove into the wrong lane and hit the road markings.I was in the car, struggling to breathe because something was blocking the air. When I saw the driver bleeding from the head, I tried to escape. But he grabbed my hand tightly and pulled me back into the twisted car.“Where do you think you’re going?” he asked in a scary voice.I bit his hand in the struggle, but he didn’t let go. Why couldn’t they leave me alone?I was getting weaker, and the driver, who I thought was working for my dad, was stronger than me. When I couldn’t fight anymore, something hit our car.Another ca
Alpha Damon’s POVI always suspected it was the Red Ravens pack, but why were they using a secret phone line? I tried to get more information by asking questions, but he couldn’t give me any answers.I took some time to think things over when suddenly my phone rang. It was Jones. As I answered, my mind was still caught up in my thoughts.“What’s going on?” I asked immediately.“Nothing much. Sarah is awake now. I called you like you asked me to,” Jones informed me, reminding me that I had requested he call me when Sarah woke up.Right after I hung up, I told them to keep the guy locked up because we still had things to sort out.I rushed out of the building towards the hospital. I couldn’t just walk at my normal pace; I kept a quick pace. She was on the VIP floor, which was around the 18th floor.I tried to stay calm as the elevator showed each floor we passed. Finally, it stopped at the 18th floor and I quickly got out.When I reached her room, I went straight to her side. It was jus
SARAH’S POVI went back to the Shadow Runners pack and laid on my bed, feeling relieved to be back. The past few days had been chaotic, and there were many mysteries to figure out.I silently prayed for Alpha Damon, hoping he wouldn’t get in trouble at work because of what happened to me. Just then, there was a knock at the door. Before I could answer, Ella opened it.“You weren’t going to answer me?” she accused.“I was just about to—”“Stop making excuses!” she interrupted angrily. “I warned you last time not to cause any more trouble, but now you’ve done something even worse! How could you hurt Damon?!” She yelled, her eyes turning hazel, indicating her wolf form.At that moment, I felt scared because I was just a low-ranking omega, and I knew I couldn’t match her strength. What if she decided to harm or even kill me?My thoughts were interrupted when she grabbed my arm and pulled me close to her. I was terrified as she spoke harshly to me, accusing me of bringing bad luck to those
ALPHA DAMON POVI left Pinnacle World and went back to the hospital, only to find out that Sarah had already left. On the quiet drive home, Myles didn’t say anything, and I couldn’t stop thinking about everything as we passed through the busy city.Suddenly, I asked Myles why I wasn’t told about the office meetings on time. It was hard for him to answer quickly.“I…I couldn’t tell you with everything going on. You were at the hospital and your attendant—”“Those aren’t excuses,” I calmly interrupted. “You should have still told me.” I knew he didn’t mean to cause trouble, but part of me wondered if it was deliberate.I stayed quiet as we drove home. First, I went to my room to freshen up, then I wanted to see Sarah. But I was surprised to find she wasn’t there.“Who told her to work?” I asked the maid, annoyed. It worried me that she wasn’t in the house. Her absence always made me feel empty. I just wanted her with me.I felt like she was still in the mansion, so I searched for her. E
ALPHA DAMON’S POV "The guy in the basement room is dead." He announced. "What?" I was surprised and at the same time annoyed. I was with Sarah, trying to settle our differences when he came with this kind of news? "How did it happen?" Heavens knew how much I tried to hold back my anger.He couldn't find words to explain and I was moved to yell at him. "I need an answer! Myles. I clearly instructed you and Charles to keep an eye on that guy but you let this happen?" "I'm sorry." He apologized. I didn't want to hear it. What went wrong, really? Leaving Sarah in the room, I followed him out. I needed to see the scene for myself. On getting there, the basement room was empty and I turned to Myles. "Where's the body?" "Charles must have taken it out." "Bring Charles to return the body, now!" I roared and walked out on him. These people are messing with me. My most trusted men were the people I put in charge of this rogue so what went wrong?I smelled something fishy. Something w
ALPHA DAMON'S POVI wanted her so badly. Heavens knew. I didn't even care about the possibility of getting turned down."Be mine."I said again. I could see the shock in her eyes. What did she except. Her impact on me was a great one so she should've seen it coming."Alpha, what do you mean?" She asked sounding so ignorant."You know what I mean by that, young woman. Be my woman.""What audacity!" She gently muttered, taking me back.Was it not Sarah that sat beside me? She sounded totally different. She just challenged me."I can't believe you think so lowly of me to join the long list of the women you sleep with." She stated with so much annoyance. For a brief moment, I saw her eyes color swiftly change. I couldn't even pick the colour it changed to.But I processed her words while my eyes were fixed on her."Why do you think of me that way?" I inquired."Don't ask me outrageous questions." She slammed and opened the car door to alight.I smirked. She was walking away in the dark n
SARAH'S POV He eventually reached out to me. My joy knew no bounds the day I received the letter from my father that I should come back to the pack. The content was not what made me happy but the fact that he summoned slm the courage to reach me. Damon was skeptical about it though. "Babe, are you sure you want to do this?" I nodded my head. "I am more than sure. I have been waiting for this day, Damon and you know it. Nothing holds me back any longer. And I won't be going along, we are going together." I said to him. He said nothing more about it and just meekly agreed. "Your wish is my command." He said and I laughed. I wanted to go see him at the earliest, so we decided to go the next day. I prepared the kids for the trip too. "Mum, where are we going?" They both asked and I smiled."To your grandpa's place," I replied simply, not clarifying things any further. We set out on the journey with a convoy. A trail of cars before and behind us.We got to the red ravens pack in on
SARAH'S POV"Archie! Alma! It is time for breakfast." I announced. The kids came running down the stairs and I could not help but worry about them."Stop running or you will get yourself injured!" I cautioned but they still did not listen to me."These kids will be the end of me," I muttered under my breath as I served their meals on the dining table."Remember your table manners, no talking," I said to them and they nodded. "Now dig in.""But mum, where is dad?" Alma asked. She just had to ask after we had agreed that no one was talking."Your dad is busy, but he will soon be here," I said to her. Then I thought of going to check up on him. He had been in his study ever since."Babe." I reached out when I got to the study. "Is everything going well? It is time to eat." "I don't think I will join you guys for breakfast. I have to code this thing before the deadline." He said."What is that? I could help." I offered but he turned me down. Then I frowned."Okay, I am sorry but I would
DAMON'S POVI lost it when I received the call from Robert. I left everything I was doing and rushed down to the hospital. I drove like a madman. Jones assured me that she was fine and would not die, but I was still not at peace. She was yet to wake up after an urgent surgery so I went to Kimberley Royals with Myles.We looked into the CCTV to find out everything that happened. The police were involved already also. Chloe's arrest was warranted. I could have done worse to punish her for doing that to Sarah but I was still being lenient. Maybe it was because she had worked with me for long or because she was a woman. I never hurt women brutally. It was not in my nature.I let the cops take over and in no time, she was charged to court. I had the best prosecutors take over the case to make sure she went to jail.Victor Martin, her father requested to see me but I declined. He obviously wanted to talked about his daughter. If he can't keep his kids under control, then he quit being a fa
*SARAH'S POVWe were on a break so I was just home, trying to figure things out. I had Robert go on an errand so I was the only one at the apartment.I was so bored. Kylie had issues to sort out with her family so she could not come over. Then I tried watching some Hollywood movies to keep myself busy while I munched on popcorn.Suddenly, the door bell rang. "Oh finally!" I exclaimed and went to the door to get Robert. But then I got shocked after seeing a different face."Delivery!" The person announced. The door was just opened a bit and the delivery man had a face cap on. "I think you got the wrong address." I said to him and tried to close the door.But then he set his foot between the door and the doorframe, making it impossible for me to close the door. "Excuse me, what are you doing--"My words were cut off when he suddenly pushed the door, opened it fully and entered."Who are you?" I shouted and he hushed me.Then he brought out a pocket knife. So this was how it is going
*SARAH'S POVI was back at that place, Astrid's mansion. The house looked ancient now that I was seeing it in broad daylight but it still looked so grand.A lady came out and ushered me into the house then I watched Astrid walk down the stairs in black regalia.As soon as she got to me, she bowed her head and said her greeting. I did the same. "Uh..can you stop doing that? You can just call me by my name, Sarah." I said to her 'cause it made me so uncomfortable.She agreed and then smiled. "Have you eaten? Let's have breakfast together." We had a wonderful meal and she got to business over a cup of tea meant for easy digestion."I heard you wanted to see me." She started."Yes. I would like to look into my past life." I said to her. She did not expect that but I said it anyway."You want to look into your past life? Through hypnosis? Could I ask why?"I felt like she knew the answers already but I still answered her."A lot is going on with me. I feel like I don't know myself as I k
*SARAH'S POVI found out Chloe was the one who reached out to the web master and gave them false information. So she painted herself as the victim and I was the antagonist.I carried out the investigation with Robert and Kylie and I swear, we could make a great team. "So what will you do about it?" Kylie asked and I sat back on the sofa."I don't know yet. I don't think I need to get back at her. I will just have the post taken down on blogs and that is all." I replied and she shook her head pitifully."You are way too calm. Taking down the posts won't solve it. What about your ruined reputation? I think it is best we involve Mr Damon in this or I personally will take it upon myself." She threatened."Okay. Maybe a little lesson would do. What can we do to her?" I asked for suggestions."I have many of them in my head. Should I print you a list?" Kylie said dramatically.Then I turned to Robert. "Say something." I urged but he only bowed his head as a gesture, telling me indirectly
DAMON'S POVIt was time for Takumi to return to his country. The whole inheritance and family issue had been solved. The Interpol had stopped looking for him also. I headed first to the villa where he was and it took hours to get there. We were supposed to have breakfast together for one last time.I got to the villa on time because I had set out so early. We discussed a few things over breakfast and he expressed his gratitude. He was always willing to fully invest in the Pinnacle World entertainment at Sichuan. I laughed inwardly when he mentioned it."Really?" I asked in Japanese and he confirmed it."Yes. And if there is anything you need my help with in the future, do not hesitate to let me know." He said as he took the last bite from his meal. I rounded up too, when I saw that he was done eating."A charter is heading over to pick you up and take you to the airport." I said to him and he smiled. "I really appreciate this, Mr Mackay."I smiled back at him. "It is my pleasure."T
*SARAH'S POVI was preparing for the academy when I heard the door bell ring. Damon was off to work so I wondered who it was. I had checked on the mini monitor but I saw an unfamiliar face.I walked down to the door and unlocked it, then opened it ajar. "Good morning, Milady." he greeted. I was surprised. A well-built, hefty and fine looking man was at my door early in the morning and even addressed me as 'Milady'."And who may you be?" I asked before anything else."I'm Robert, your new bodyguard." He introduced. And then I remembered Damon had actually discussed it with me before he left."Oh. I'm so sorry. Please come in." Then, I opened the door fully for him to come in. "Would you like to have some breakfast?" I proposed and he shook his head immediately."Okay...you can have your seat then." I said but he refused to comply."I would love to remain like this, Milady." He replied.Here we go again with this 'Milady' thing, it is not like I was a queen or anything. I did not a
DAMON'S POVI was at the office, on a call with Charles. "Nolan is going berserk about his brother's issue. I think he is catching on to the fact that we don't have his brother." He reported. I dropped my pen and sighed. I saw it coming. The boy can't be kept under me forever. "Charles, try to put him together. He must not confirm the fact that we don't have his brother.""But he is dead, is he not?" Charles insisted."Nothing is sure for now. Keep Nolan with you, I will make sure to find him in a few days.""Alright sir--""What are you talking about...?" I heard a different voice ask, and I guessed it was Nolan. Finally caught! "I just asked a question! My brother is dead? You told me he was alive!" Nolan yelled over the phone."Calm down." I cooed but he was not taking it.Just then, Myles walked into my office. I was gesturing to him to hold on so I could sort out things with Nolan but he seemed impatient."I have found him." He uttered."Who?" I raised a brow, diverting most
