Mirabel got to the door leading to Liliana's dark basement, she was glad to see that door was securely bolted just as she left it.She was elated that no one had bothered to check the basement nor found out about her mischief or so she thought.She slowly unbolted the door and peeped inside the basement. She couldn't see clearly because everywhere was dark and so she put on her flashlight.She flashed it all over the space in search of Carolina whom she believed was still locked in but was disappointed in not seeing her.Her skin began to creep and she was becoming afraid and alarmed at the same time. She cleaned her eyes to make sure she was seeing clearly and when she opened them, Carolina was still not there. She grabbed a fistful of her hair in frustration."Where in the world is that witch of a person? Where is that stupid girl hiding?" She asked rhetorically, through gritted teeth.She was starting to go crazy because she couldn't find Carolina anymore. She took out anything tha
Connor made to follow Jack out of the control room and out of the hospital in general but something caught his eye. From the monitor screen, he could see the doctors covering Kayla and wheeling her out of the ward.He ran back to them immediately and blocked them, "where are you taking her to?" He demanded angrily. He was trying his best not to yank the white cloth that covered his dead cousin away from her face."We need to carry out an autopsy test on her to see if she was injected with something apart from the removal of her life support machine and if the murderer touched her by mistake, His fingerprints can be checked and his identity determined" the doctor explained.Jack overhead everything because he was just behind Connor, he slowly took Connor's hand. "Let them do their job Alpha while we focus on bringing miss Carolina home" he persuaded Connor.Connor was reluctant to move out of the way but he still did move and paved way for the medics to take Kayla away. He kept stand
Connor stared at Roseanne for a long time trying to figure out what she was talking about, he was still trying to understand how Mirabel could blame Roseanne for the mysterious disappearance of his mate."Was Mirabel right? Does Roseanne have something to do with it as Mirabel claimed? Or is Mirabel hiding something?" He thought within himself.He turned to Roseanne, "Why should I believe you? I know Mirabel can be cruel but she's a changed person" Connor said and Roseanne shook her head."Forgive me Alpha if I am trespassing my boundaries, I think Miss Mirabel is not all as innocent as she claimed. No matter how hard I try not to see it, I believe that miss Mirabel has a hand in the mysterious story of My lady" Roseanne reportedConnor's ears twitched and he stared at Roseanne in suspicion, he took his hands to his face and tugged at his chin, "That's a huge allegation right there young lady, you are aware of the consequences if you're wrong. Still, I will investigate your story" Con
Carolina blinked countlessly at Luc's revelation, her body grew cold as she recollected that Connor had told her something about Luc some time ago.Luc is a bad guy, he is dangerous too. Connor had told her that Luc was the name of one man he had killed but didn't know how he was saved. It was all making sense to her now, it never occurred to her that Luc could be the same person Connor had told her about.Realization dawned on her and she swallowed sharply, Luc was the man Connor was talking about, no wonder he was so overprotective of her when it comes to Luc. This also explains their strong hatred toward each other. She was curious to know the story behind it but at the moment, her body was cold with fear.Carolina began to dress back on the bed, she didn't want to stay close to Luc because she was now afraid of him.On the other hand, Luc was happy that she had finally calmed down, he made to touch her hand but she fled like Luc's hand was suddenly made of fire. Luc was perplexed,
Connor was confused as to the relationship Mirabel shared with his uncle, Mr. Gregory. He never expected the person Mirabel accorded so much respect and had sneaked out to see was his uncle and so he was perplexed.He didn't just want to stand at the side and watch them, he wanted to know what their relationship was all about and so he confronted them.Mirabel heard footsteps approaching her from behind and turned abruptly, on the other hand, Mr. Gregory raised his eyes to see the intruder, and they were both surprised to see Connor. "Connor? How did you get here?" Mr. Gregory asked in shock while Mirabel watched Connor come closer like she was in a trance. Connor got to them and stared at both of the expressionlessly.His uncle pulled his hand, "I never expected to see you here son, but all the same, you're welcome to join us" Mr. Gregory offered with a bright grin while crossing his hands over Connor's shoulders.Connor did not seem enthusiastic about the offer, he kept staring at
Luc came back to the room minutes later and served Carolina who ate slowly. Her mind was in turmoil as she wondered why Connor had not bothered to come and get her. She could not deny how much she hated Connor for turning her life upside down but on the other hand, she missed him and wanted to go back to him. She missed her room in the mansion and the workers too. She wished she would be taken back home.Her mind wandered to the offer Connor had made earlier before she was locked in, about her going back to college and she sighed. She hoped the offer would still be on even when she goes back home.She had wanted to Leave Connor but at the moment, she wanted nothing more than to go back to the place she had considered home since her father sold her off. She was not concentrating on the food she was having anymore and so pushed the cup of water mistakenly. It fell with a loud clash and broke into pieces"I'm so sorry" Carolina apologized immediately and made to pick up the pieces but
Connor was raging mad as he entered his office, his claws grew long and sharp, his eyes golden yellow. He let out an angry growl and began slashing everything in sight imagining them to be Luc. His breathing was hoarse and harsh and all he could see was red.How dare Luc play with him like he was a toy? Like he was a tool to be played with. "Luc had taken more than he can chew and he is going to throw all of it up, I'm going to make sure of that" Connor snarled and grabbed his suit jacket.He didn't bother to go into the elevator, he just ran down the stairs and headed straight for his car so that he would be driven home.He was right all along in his suspicions, Luc was the unknown person. The one behind Kayla's attack and death, the one who had kidnapped his mate and kept her hostage. The one who had been sending him those threatening messages.Connor wondered how Carolina was faring under his care. "I'm so going to chop that dog's head off if I learn he had hurt Carolina, in any
Carolina was still in Luc's penthouse, her movements were restricted around the room Luc had locked her in. Though she had everything she wanted, she still longed to go home.She was currently staring out of the window which was slightly opened and didn't have any way to widen it. This was so that she couldn't escape from the house. Her mind wandered off to what Luc had told her about the person that might have locked her in the basement. Since Luc had proven that he was not the one that had her locked in, her suspicions lay on only one person, Mirabel.She found it hard to believe that Mirabel, whom she had tried to put in a good relationship with Connor, was still the same person that could do such evil to her.She felt betrayed and her feelings towards Mirabel turned to anger. "Since Mirabel has proven herself to be a green Snake in green grass. I would make sure to expose her devilish attitude. She's surely going to regret messing with me" Carolina resolved within herself.She ke
