Chase's PovI had a feeling that they were lying about their Alpha. How can Axel be sleeping by this time? This was the only pack that had hesitated to let me into their pack, it was the only pack that the Alpha has been undoubtedly coming up with a lot of excuses for. My suspicion started to grow gradually. However, that was not even what angered me, it was the fact that they dared order me to return by Morning.If they had nothing to hide, they wouldn't even keep me waiting, they would be like the other packs who upon my arrival summoned all their members to leave their doors open so that I could head inside and conduct my search. It was a quick one and I ended up wrapping it in just a moment.I had a feeling Axel might prove this stubborn though he has been rumored to be nice and kind to people, I just didn't trust him and his pack, there was something about them that made my men and I very suspicious. As Luke glanced at me, I knew he had the same thing running through his mind."
Chase POVI glared at him, she was smart to hide Layla but he wasn't smart enough to make sure that he didn't blow his cover."If only you weren't so stupid then you wouldn't have blown your cover, however, your stupidity got the best of you and now you don't even have what to say"His blatant stare didn't waver, he had no words to say to me for he knew that I was telling him the truth. Perhaps, he had thought that he was some Powerful and smart Aloha who had it all figured out but he had no clue that I don't consider him smart but dumb."And just in case you haven't realized it yet, this place is so rosy""What?" He had no clue what I just implied."I have searched every house in this pack but there's one place that I haven't searched and that's the romance That you are hiding my woman, Layla. You kept her in your house, didn't you? You know you can lie all that you want but I can see right through you" "And what if I say that she is here but I am not giving her up, what are you go
Jeff's POVIt was midnight when my phone rang, it was Chase who was trying to get hold of me. Apparently, he had gone off to the rest of the pack and gas returned. He wanted to talk so I left a note for Dahlia just in case she wakes up and doesn't see me beside her. He said that he needed Someone to talk to and to be there for him.Ever since Layla left, it has been pretty hard for him, it was only after her departure that I realized that he loved her all along, but has refused to tell her how he felt about her. Layla lives in his house thinking that he has no feelings for her, and there was also Francesca, that woman who was a pain in the ass."What are you doing?" As I saw him sitting on the stool drinking, I grabbed the drink from him and gulped it down. He looked up and scoffed when he met my gaze."I needed a Friend and not a mother" When he tried to take the drink away from me, I glared at him. "Tell me what is wrong with you? Did you find Layla? How did the search go?""I fou
Dahlia's POVI had a meeting in the morning with some clients and so I had to leave Jeff's apartment after making breakfast. Going back to the house was like a nightmare. However, there was nothing that I could do about it, I had to endure the torture of seeing that man all the time just as I can endure the torture of seeing Quinn, just seeing them makes me sick to the stomach. When I got back home, Chase was still very much asleep as the butler informed me before leaving. He was the only one that I cared about and so I tended to ask after only him and no one else. I wouldn't even ask after that maidservant who equally made Layla's life a living hell here in the pack. Since I didn't have a shower before leaving Jeff's house, I got into the bathroom and turned in the shower. As water poured down my soul, I thought about Layla and how I was doing. Layla didn't have a mobile phone when she was here, Chase didn't want her to have one and forbade me from getting one for her. I didn't ha
Dahlia's POV"How did you know that?" I was surprised by her words. She wasn't in the bathroom with me so how come she knows this much, does it mean that she was waiting listening through the door, or what? What is it that happened?She smirked. "That is not for you to find out""You sick woman!" I attempted to rush towards her when the doorbell rang."Why don't you get the door?"I glared at her and turned towards the door, I didn't bother looking at who was standing on the ground shoreside as I yanked the door wide exposing Jeff at the door. "Hello beautiful""Jeff" I was tensed. He was at my door and Luke was in the house as well. This was not looking good at all. I don't want to be in a situation in which I would have to give that much explanation as to what happened."You really shouldn't be here, isn't it?""Huh?""You mentioned last night that you had a meeting and I thought that was the reason you made breakfast and didn't bother staying with me to have it""Yes that is the t
Layla's POVI paced around uncertain what was happening outside the room that Axel had placed me in. I was so lost and angry that Chase had to come here. How did he even find me? Dahlia wouldn't have told him that she had helped me out, she would not have betrayed me and does not even know where exactly I was since we parted ways. Chase coming here was trouble, I just felt it but then the more tense that I became, the more the baby in my womb was tensed, and that is not good for my unborn child. Even though his father was a jerk, I am going to love him with everything that I have since he doesn't have a father. It was a good thing that Chase knew nothing about my pregnancy and Dahlia had not told him about it otherwise, Axel couldn't have been able to keep me here. My soul was restless, I could not stay trapped in this room anymore, I needed to make sure that everything went well, I needed to make sure that Axel was alright and so was everyone else in his pack. I turned around and
Dahlia's POV"Hey, I got your calls, you sounded urgent over the phone, what happened?" Chase said in a heartbeat as he rushed into my office. After what happened this morning with Luke and then Jeff, I was worried, there has been a lot of thinking to do on my part so that my relationship with Jeff doesn't come to an end. "You haven't told Jeff anything, have you?""We agreed that you would do it or would you rather that I do it as I am heading over to his place now""No, I don't want you to do it""Then why did you call? Why did you sound that way?""I don't know" I rake my hand through my hair. That was the truth, I don't know why I called him and sounded so desperate. It was because I was very desperate, I was in dire need of figuring out what was wrong with Jeff. He seemed to be mad at me for something, I don't know what it is or what I have done wrong, I just have a bad feeling about this. "Tell me what is wrong with you? I know something is going on with you, you can trust me,
Chase's POV"Oh my god" Dahlia begins to hyperventilate, she raked her hand through her hair, as her eyes widened. "What's wrong with you? Are you alright? You have to breathe" Oliva was worried as well as he jumped up from the seat and stared at her."I will get a bottle of water" He rushed over to the counter and got a bottle of water for her. However, she was still not calming down, her eyes became wet and I wondered why."He is onto me, he is going to find out the truth""Who?""Jeff is heading to the house, if he goes over to the house and sees Luke there, he might start to imagine something else"That was when it got me, that she was right all along. He was already suspicious of her and lied to Oliva before leaving."He said that I was sick why he was the one who dropped me off at work, he knew that Luke was already at home""Luke? Who is Luke? Is he a man that you used to date?" That just piqued Oliva's interest and so he had to ask. "How did you know that? I didn't tell y
Chase povWhen the news of my son's disappearance reached my ear I had to head over to Axel, he wanted my attention for so long, and for a while, I kept quiet so I was trying to find Layla but now he has my son, all I could think about was saving Emerson from his treacherous hand.If he does lay a hand on my soul, I will forget everything and rip it apart, he was no match for me that was why he resorted to such petty tricks. he assumed that doing tricks would save him for he had no idea that despite anything Emma still was my son and even if his blood could weaken me his blood was also the thing that could save me from dying and that was exactly what happened.Abducting my son meant he was asking for a war and I was going to give it to him, this time around I would make sure that he didn't come out alive, the only one who'd be out alive was myself, Gathering up the men I took my guards and charge towards his pack, my men knew that the future of our Pack was at stake I will need to res
Layla’s povWhen I looked behind, I saw the killer standing behind Raymond his sword was jumped right into his chest, Raymond was bleeding out right before me, he was dying and I could not help but smile, he deserved this for everything that he did, for the pain that inflicted on everyone that I care about, his father slayed my parents and it was only right that his son faces the same Faith that he made my parents face.“I hope forget peace Raymond Foster” even on his dying bed, she could only smirk at me, I know if there was something that he regretted, it was not getting his way with me but that gave me inner peace and victory over him at last, the man who destroyed almost everything that I had I'm slipping away slowly and I was watching him die. that was no need for a funeral, he does not deserve to have a proper funeral he deserves to be thrown into the river and for the fishes to devour his body.“We did it” I was thrilled that at last Raymond was gone.“No you did it, Layla, it
Layla’s povAs we got to the pack, Killian went his way chasing after Jacob I chased after Raymond into the woods where I heard, he was having a meeting with some women, I knew he was probably plotting something stupid so he could take over as the alpha almost immediately after his father steps down. Jacob has always made a way so that he could make him the Alpha even before stops leading the pack.As I made my way into the wood, I heard muffled sounds coming from the depth of the wood. I walked further, I could hear the screaming, and the shuffling of feet against dry Wood as the leaves danced.When I heard that familiar voice screaming, I rushed over heading for Into the Woods, only to see Raymond drenched in blood with an axe in his hand, there was some girl who was tied to a tree almost Naked, and another on the ground. it was as if he was trying to force himself on her and he was taking turns on the girls. my adrenaline rushed up, and I wanted to rip his throat out right there, I
Layla’s povInto the territory of the shadow Park, we set off. Killian and I have decided to leave behind my son Emerson in order not to endanger him, nevertheless, we make sure that we are signed bodyguards and the innkeeper to look after him. I will never be able to take it if anything happens to my son I love him so much he was everything I have now that I have lost Chase I don't think that will ever be together again. however, I needed to do this alone bringing him along was only going to was only going to drag me back and he might be exposed and endangered to anything that we were going to face out there in the territories of the shadow pack. It took a lot for me to leave my son behind, but there was nothing that I could do, this was the right thing but then it felt so wrong because it seemed as if I was abandoning him just as his father had. not that Chase abandoned his son but he has no clue where I was and has not heard anything about me since I left his pack“This must be h
Jeff’s povI tried to understand her, I know that she was hurt, and I was hurt as well, but then this was not the right way to go about it, I wanted that man dead as well but then Dahlia was going about it in a wrong way, fury consumed her soul and right now I was not sure the woman that was looking at was the one I have fallen in love with. This woman could do anything to have Oliva heading back with us to the city but that was not the right, we are the ones who pushed him here in the first place and now he's here we cannot just make him leave as well.“Honestly my love I think you should come down and let us first think everything through”“Why don't you want to kill him anymore? if you won't do it then I will do it I hate Luke so much and after everything he has done to me, I don't think I want him to leave Just Another Day”“ I hate him as much as you hate him but this was not the right way to go about it, this isn't you, it has never been, you have always been the one who is aga
Dahlia’s povI was disappointed, angry, and disheartened, nothing could be used to describe what I felt at that moment, everything seemed to be falling apart, my family, my life the only thing I had at the moment was my love for Jeff. he was the only one that mattered at the moment, he was only one coming close to me and asking how I truly felt with everything that was happening in my life. my brother was having his troubles with Layla and Axel.I couldn't believe that we spent days, and hours planning this trip and now that we were here, Oliva had treated us with contempt, it was devastating and I was heartbroken. It is still hard to get over the fact that Oliva was ever going to act this way towards us, he was different, this wasn't the boy that I knew, the little boy that I wanted safe and loved so much, the masculinity was something that I have always wanted.However, now that I see it I think I don't want it anymore what I want now is for him to come home, but it seems that he ha
Jeff’s POVThere was nothing that made it seem as if it was Oliva’s room, the wallpapers were of muscular and naked women, I glanced around wondering if the woman led us to another room when I saw those familiar pair of reading glasses that Dahlia picked up.“I guess that we are in the right place after all”At least I wasn't the only one who was having such thoughts, she had the same thing running through her mind.“I guess so”“It’s so different but I like it” She smiled and I nodded my head, it was different and strange but then that’s alright, I could deal with all the strangeness as long as Oliva was alright, we drove miles and I knew that dahlia couldn't wait to see him she was anxious and nervous. Anxiety dwelled in her heart as to whether he will be alright or not. I held her hand reassuring her that she needed to calm down since we were already here. When she opened her mouth to try and say something, Oliva entered the room, I couldn't move as I gawked at him, the room wasn't
Jeff's POVThe drive to the school was exhausting but it was a smooth one, especially after Dahlia and I made love in the car, I was glad that she was the one who noticed we were drifting apart and spoke up about it, I wasn't sure that I was going to do it if she didn't bring. I know that she was going through so much and I did not want to burden her with my problems. I missed her so much, it was a good thing that we finally got to talk about it otherwise, I would not have been able to. I did not want to sound like a mean boyfriend who does not take into account how others feel, I love Dahlia, and every day I just wanted to make her happy. She was so nervous that as we pulled into the driveway I held her arm possessively reassuring her that everything was going to be alright, I was going to make sure that she realized that I would be there by her side.“We are in this together, there is nothing that will happen that will make me leave your hand except you say so”“I don't know what to
Dahlia’s povIt has been weeks since Oliva left us, we haven't spoken and he hasn't returned my calls, I was worried about him and tried calling him several times but it was still the same for Jeff and me so Jeff and I were taking a trip down the school. It has been one problem after another, Layla was missing again and there was the thing with Axel trying to take over as the most powerful alpha, Chase went to handle it, everyone back home had problems, and the only ones who seemed to enjoy their lives are Qinn and Francesca, they claimed that they had no clue what happened to Layla and that she ran away. I did not believe a word that they said and Chase didn't either but then there was no evidence, and no one was speaking up which was the most annoying of all. I know that Layla had not just run off in that manner, she didn't even tell me about it, I bet she did not want to burden me, I was still proud of her for becoming someone stronger and I hope that somehow I will get to meet her
