My body began to shake as panic set in, leaving me at a loss for words. Suddenly, I hit him hard on the chest. "Where is he?" I demanded, my voice trembling with anger and fear."Victoria, please calm down," he said, trying to reason with me."Where the fuck is he?" I shouted so loudly that he got nervous and dragged me out of the restaurant."Get your fucking hands off me," I said angrily, trying to break free from his grip.Ignoring my protests, he continued to drag me until we reached his car. As he bent his head, pleading with me to get in, I knew I had no choice but to go along with him. Brendon had some explaining to do.BRENDON I sat down on a king-like chair, facing the window in the dining room. I was curious to see how the plan would turn out, eager to watch Victoria regain her composure. Victoria had one goal: revenge. Unfortunately, being far from New York City made it impossible to achieve. Bringing her to this city was the last thing on my mind to help her get back on
VICTORIA "Victoria, are you okay?" Rina, my wolf, asked with concern evident in her voice as she tilted her head to look at me.I let out a heavy sigh, my mind consumed with thoughts of revenge. I didn't answer her, lost in my own thoughts."I can't watch them happy while I'm suffering like a fool," I muttered, my frustration boiling over. "What was I thinking when I was in Germany?""How dare he call me a whore," I exclaimed, clenching my fists in anger. "And what amazes me even more is the fact that everyone in this city believes I'm dead.""Victoria?" Rina called my name, her voice soft and gentle."Just shut up, Rina," I snapped, cutting her off mid-hum. I knew she wasn't expecting my outburst, but I couldn't focus on anything else but my plan for revenge."I know you don't want to hear me, but I did suggest you go see your father," Rina said, her frustration evident in her voice.Her words hit me hard Suddenly, I got up from the bed and walked over to the mirror, deep in thoug
Victoria's POV"By the way, you should have gotten me a better phone, and I need some cash though" I said, my voice straight, tinged with fear as he chuckled."Victoria, I'm willing to give you any amount you want," he replied smoothly as John handed me a pile of cash—almost ten thousand dollars.I almost let my surprise show, but I managed to maintain a straight face, even though I was shocked."I'm going to pay my father and his miserable pack a visit in August. How fun it will be to see his prodigal daughter," I said with a snort. "Who fucking cares about him? Someone who abandoned his own daughter.""Vicky, you need to be careful. Extra careful," John warned, but I cut him off."I know, and I'll be vigilant. I don't need you to remind me," I spoke rudely, rolled my eyes, as John cleared his throat."Call me if anything happens, okay?" Brendon said as I nodded."Just wish me good luck. And I need Moses to drop me off. After all, he dropped me off when I thought I was going to the r
As we drove, I couldn't help but feel nervous. I was going to see my father's ugly face and his pack after all these years, and I had no idea how it would turn out. I fidgeted with the cash in my lap, feeling its weight and wondering if it would be enough to make him pay for what he had done. I scoffed silently.Moses glanced at me through the rearview mirror, sensing my unease. "Everything all right, miss?" he asked.I turned to him, my frustration bubbling over. "Oh, please just drive like you give a damn," I said, my voice tense."If it's because of what happened, then I'm sorry, Victoria," Moses said, his tone apologetic."Gosh, just stop with the 'ma'am' and call me Victoria," I snapped. "And stop worrying about me like you give a damn, because I don't.""Your wish is my command," Moses said, his lips curling into a small smile.I nodded, feeling slightly guilty for taking my frustrations out on him. "Better. Just drive and make sure you're taking me in the right direction," I s
"We... we won't, and who the hell are you to come and put your mouth in what doesn't concern you?" The guard spoke as I raised my head to see who was talking. Oh no! It was Stone, my personal guard. I quickly bent down so he wouldn't recognize me. Jeez, this didn't go well as planned.How come is he still around? I thought he was sacked or thrown to the rogue packs, of course I heard some women gossiping about the old staffs being thrown to the rogue packs, gosh all this is a mess."I'm someone who loves protecting my property no matter what," Brendon replied calmly.Suddenly, John appeared out of nowhere and broke the arms of the two guards holding me. "John?" I exclaimed in surprise."Hey, Vicky, it's good to see you alive," John said with a grin. But before he could say anything else, a guard hit him on the head as he loose concentration.Brendon reacted in an instant, throwing a brutal punch at the guard's nose. The guard groaned and fell to the ground, bleeding."Wow, that was g
My body shook with fear as I yelled, "What the fuck are we going to do now? Oh no! He is going to die" John looked both angry and worried."Fuck this, I'm coming," he said and rushed out of sight.I couldn't stand to see Brendon in pain as I watched him writhing on the floor. "Brendon, please stay with me. You can't die, " I pleaded with a little tears in my eyes, I became nervous and restless at the same time. John suddenly reappeared with a lighter in his hand."What is wrong with him?" I thought aloud."Hey! What do you think you are doing? He needs medical attention immediately! Don't you know the poison does spread fast?" I yelled at John in frustration as he shook his head and ignored me.Wait, is he planning to burn Brendon? My heart raced as John lit the lighter and flames shot out. He placed the flame where the arrow had hit Brendon. I opened my mouth to cuss at him, but Brendon's scream of pain drowned out my words.I turned my face away, unable to bear the sight of fire aro
BRENDON's POVAs I walked towards my room, my gaze shifted to my palm, which was a bright shade of red. It resembled a burn, but for some reason, it wasn't healing as quickly as it should have been. Surprisingly, I didn't feel any pain, which left me puzzled. And also I noticed that she was staring at my palm with concern, and I couldn't help but wonder if she cared about my well-being. I scoffed at the thought, dismissing it as unlikely.However, as I pondered over the strange occurrence, I suddenly remembered that I had come into contact with Moses' body. I shuddered at the thought of how hot he had been, wondering what kind of werewolf he was. Quickly shaking my head, I pushed the thought aside and reached for the doorknob to my room.To my surprise, as soon as I opened the door, I found John and Moses inside. Startled, I jumped back and exclaimed, "Jeez, you two scared the hell out of me!".John looked at me quizzically. "What's wrong, Brendon? You look like you've seen a ghost.
VICTORIA's POVI could tell from the way Brendon looked at me that he was angry about something before I barged into his office. I felt a bit embarrassed for as the secretary called 'wife', but I had to confront him. Why didn't he want to go to the event? Was it because of what alpha Mike did to me, or was there something else I didn't know?The secretary left me to choice than to lie, she refused to let me in not until I said I was his wife, how gross!."And how did you know I had a company, let alone its name and location?" Brendon asked, clearly shocked and confused to see me there. I scoffed at his surprise.He then looked at Moses and John, his two colleagues, to see if either of them had told me. John came to his defense. "I didn't, I swear. Hey, how did you know?""Well, Brendon, I was looking for you this morning to discuss Alpha Mike's wedding anniversary, and you weren't anywhere to be found. So, I found this," I said as I reached into my bag and pulled out a laptop.Brendon
