Joana's POV

“Tea or coffee?” Same voice repeated in my head over and over until my blurred vision became clear.

“What?” I muttered softly, noticing I was sitting across Finn with two jugs in his hand.

“Who am I kidding? You are a coffee type of gal,” He chuckled and poured coffee into the cup in front of me.

“Finn. What's going on? How are you here?” I questioned and stood up from the dining chair.

I couldn't recognize the house, it was white and simple.

“What am I doing here? Joana, are you good?” He asked with a worried look on his face.

“Baby? Talk to me,”

Baby? He called me baby. I had no idea what was going on anymore. I couldn't remember anything past my father's funeral.

I was backing away slowly with my heart pounding against my chest when his voice shot from behind me.

“Now Finn, don't stress our mate.” I turned around slowly to see Dire walking towards me.

“You know she has the weight of a mighty company on her shoulder,”

“Wait,what's going on?” I asked softly, tryi

All of y'all never believed in my family in the first place. You see us as bunch of crooks that you can manipulate,” “You were supposed to be dead,” Theo voiced softly. “So what? You hid somewhere these past years?”He took his time, allowed smile to grow on his face before he responded, “I am a hired gun, not my choice of work but a boy has to eat and fuck. So years back, someone contacted me for a job. Crazy pay but the weird part was that I was the target,”“So they hired you to kill.yourself? Didn't they know it was you?” Lucien asked. “Oh they knew that it was me and I wasn't paid to kill myself.

    Joana's POVIt's been twenty four hours since i got discharged from the hospital. Heaven knew I needed a break from the antiseptic smell and beeping. But something entirely was on my mind, the whole story didn't add up. I got my eyes peeled on financial records, bank details, Pack origins to find out why he is playing the game. I knew something was off about Dire from the start, I could feel it but there was no lead. I was still examining the files when I heard a knock on the door. I was shocked to hear it but judging from the scent, it was him. “I'm coming!” I yelled out to him as I hid the files underneath my sheets. I hurried to open the door but made sure everything was composed before I did. “Hi,” He said with a smile when I opened the door. “Brought you breakfast,” I received the tray from him with a slight smile. On the tray were pancakes, bacon and orange juice. My eyes widened in shock because that was my favorite breakfast and only Sasha knew about it. “Are you going

We stormed out of the room in hurry and on our way out the door, there was someone standing there, obviously waiting for me. “Theo, can I help you with something?” I asked with a fake smile on my face. “You should infirm the alpha of your move before making it,” He replied while gripping onto the sword sheathed by his side. “Wow! You healed nicely,” I remarked, staring at where he was stabbed. “You shouldn't strain your body, Theo. So get out of my way,” He gazed at me with a smirk, pissed but there was nothing he could do. “Let her go, Theo,” Dire voiced from the upstairs hallway. I turned to him, his eyes stared at me with curiosity and lust. “Be back by the curfew wife,” He added with a smile before walking away. I was dumbfounded, I just stood there gazing at the void space. “Joana,” Sasha grabbed on to me, snapping me back to reality. “Let's go,” Normally, I would use a

    Joana's POV“How is he doing this?” I asked myself but voiced out loud. Lucien and Sasha both looked confused, sitting in my office with their faces buried in files and documents. “He orchestrated it, he wanted you to push Curly and her associates out.” Lucien concluded with a tired expression. “But why? Why go through all those troubles to pull them out?” Sasha asked softly, staring at the documents for any clue she could find. Suddenly her face beamed with satisfaction as she slammed her hands on the desk“If you have something, say it. No need to be crazy,” Lucien remarked. “Fuck you Lucien!”“Been there, done that,” Lucien replied her with a smirk. “Sasha, ignore him,” I said to her, noticing that her face had began turning red with anger. “He is trying to reduce your networth,” Sasha said as she handed me a bill poster. “Your company is number one in the entire Western hemisphere. But you are currently the richest in the pack,”“Yeah, my family had always taken the number

Is something wrong?” “There is a news conference today and I will like you to be there,” He said calmly with his hands folded behind him. His expression was as clear as day. “I have a meeting,” “Cancel, I want you there,” He pressed on, turned around to leave. His attitude, his countenance just fueled an anger within me. “You won. You played me,” “What?” He asked with a smile. “Don't play mouse with me. You knew and you played me into your hand,” A smile beamed on his face, chuckling maniacally while facing me, “I did nothing.

You announced me as your Luna to shut me up,” She answered spitefully. Seeing her angry and frustrated caused a smile on my face.“You saw lines where there aren't any Joana. And it's becoming very funny,” “Funny?” She asked with an angry stare. She reached into her bag and pulled out a brown envelope. “What's that?” I asked. “Open it,” I grabbed it from her and tore it open. It was a photograph of Oregon and a black SUV. “What is this?”She chuckled hysterically before lashing out, “Don't pretend like you don't know what that is. That's you collecting the same sniper used to kill Chris from Elder Oregon.” “Joana, why will I kill a worker I didn't know?” I asked with a smile, trying to hide the rage burning up within me. “I don't know but I have evidence that you cohorted with Oregon and then killed him before

I felt a chill run up my spine as my shaking hand clenched to my phone. “Something is wrong,” I muttered softly, almost like a whisper. “What did he say?” Lucien asked curiously. “Joana, what did he say?” “Something is going on!” I panicked and hurried out of the news house. I had no intention on going on live television, just intended on testing out his bluff. Lucien and Sasha followed behind me and without asking questions, they hopped in the car with me. I was driving towards his company when I got an incoming phone call. “Sasha,” “On it,” Sasha answered the call and placed it on speaker. “This is Joana, who is this?” “Luna Joana, this is Doctor Tim from your General Hospital on West,” The subtle voice responded. “What can I do for you Doctor Tim?” “If you can, please come down to the hospital. The alpha had just been admitted,” With brute force, I stepped on

    Joana's POV “What are we going to do?” Sasha asked as I stared at the vast space. My head was spinning with plans but none of them ended well for me or my company. “We are linked directly to this bombing, Lucien,” I said softly. “How is this possible?”“It's not. This particular bomb is not out on the market. The military had not yet signed it off,” Lucien replied. “Then what the hell is going on?” I growled angrily, punching the wall with frustration. “Nice hook,” Dire muttered from the doorway, causing us to react in shock. “Can you excuse us?” I gave a nod sign and they left the room leaving me alone with Dire who was looking healthier. He wasn't wearing a shirt, flexing his biceps and abs in my face. “Your company's bomb did this?” He asked in a subtle tone, his gaze was cold as I fidgeted in shock. “No…yes, I don't know for sure,” I responded, looking away from him. “Joana, it's a simple question. Is your company responsible for the bomb?” He asked, this time fiercer.

    Joana's POV At that moment, everything seemed slow. My entire flashed before my eyes in a second and just when I thought that was the end of me, I heard a swoosh sound. It came past me like a gust of wind and the next thing I felt was the hot scorching burn from the wolf's blood. I looked up at it and there was an ax sticking on to its head. My heart skipped a beat as I glared at the image. Out of fear, perhaps. “Joana! Get out of the way,” Theo yelled out to me. His voice startled me into turning to his direction and beside him was Dire, whose hand was still stretched out from throwing the ax. “Are you going to sit on the floor all day?” Dire asked with a smirk. With a fast reflex, I hurried behind them as they conered the wolf to the edge of the woods. “I don't know who you are or what you think you are going to achieve from causing this much turmoil,” Dire spoke with a deep and steady voice that echoed over the lake. “But you made a mistake, you screwed over the wrong man,”
