Carolina could not help the disturbing feeling that kept hovering over her mind. The thoughts of Mirabel doing something mischievous were creeping her out and she struggled to focus on having fun like Connor suggested as they moved about the skating rink.

Carolina was not comfortable with the fact that Mirabel whom she has not set her eyes on for days was right there with them all of a sudden. Her presence alone screams trouble and Carolina was slowly getting overwhelmed with worry.

She kept wondering why Mirabel decided to show up all of a sudden after ghosting everyone for a long time now. She was sure that Mirabel's presence means that she was up to something that is not going to be favorable for anyone and the thoughts of what might be up her sleeves kept Carolina worried.

Connor thought as much too, he was not also comfortable with having Mirabel around since everything about her was bad. Connor resolved that he was going to be on guard to see that whatever plans Mirabel had for

    Mr. Gregory, Connor's uncle became livid when he saw Hardulph in the skating rink, holding Mirabel and skating around with her.His eyes widened in shock as he thought of the possibility of Mirabel inviting Hardulph to come skating with her because he did not expect to see Hardulph there. Mr. Gregory let out a snarl and banged his hands on the table before him angrily."This is the height of it. How could Mirabel do something as stupid as inviting the same guy I warned her about to skate with her? And now my plans of getting rid of Carolina for good have been disrupted" Mr. Gregory growled, glaring at Hardulph with fiery eyes. "And she said nothing was going on between the both of them. How could Mirabel be this dumb to bring her weakness along during an operation and now look what he has done" Mr. Gregory spat angrily.If it was possible for him, he would have gone down to the rink himself and dealt with Hardulph for making his plans flop again. Connor's uncle was filled with so muc

    Carolina was at first bewildered that there was no one in the direction Mirabel was looking at. She looked side to side at the position Mirabel was looking at over and over again but still, no one was in sight. Carolina was surprised, she turned to look at Mirabel to see that she was still glancing behind like she was seeing someone on the vacant seat. Carolina was beyond confused with Mirabel's act."Is Mirabel slowly losing her sanity?" She thought within herself, checking around again to see if she could see whomever Mirabel was looking for."There is no one there, why then is Mirabel looking behind like someone is watching her? Has she developed sort of a mental problem or are her evil acts haunting her now?" Carolina thought aloud, her eyes squinted in Mirabel's direction.Connor became curious to see what Carolina stood at a place staring at and so approached her quietly."What are you looking at?" He asked in a whisper, curiosity dripping out of his tune.Carolina did not flin

    Mirabel was no more concentrating as she skated around with Hardulph. Her mind was not at rest and she was so scared of what the outcome of what happened today would be.Her mind raced back to the way Connor's uncle warned her seriously against Hardulph and gulped down nothing.With what he had done today, Mirabel was certain that Connor's uncle would use it against her since she denied ever having anything to do with Hardulph, she feared for her dear life.Hardulph noticed how restless and afraid Mirabel had been since the moment he caught her off guard by swirling her around when she was skating towards Carolina from behind.He knew something was amiss with the way she was behaving and with how pallid her features appeared. The lady before him is not the same person he had been hanging out with, something was wrong with her because the Mirabel he knew was lively and always ready to have fun. He was slightly curious to know the reason for her strange behavior but because of his plan

    In the meantime, Connor and Carolina resumed skating around, taking their mind off anything that would lead back to the thoughts of Mirabel. Besides, they were in the skating rink to have fun and not to ponder about the well-being of someone who can be considered more as an enemy than a friend.Carolina soon felt the urge to use the bathroom."Connor, I will be right back" she started to say as she tried skating away but Connor was quick to hold her back possessively."Where are you off to?" He demanded in a serious tone. Carolina could see the slight look of worry and fear in his eyes, she wouldn't blame him though, a lot has happened in their lives these few weeks."The restroom, I will be quick" She answered."I will go with you then" He replied and Carolina stared at him in disbelief."To the female restroom? Come on" She uttered and chuckled lowly.Connor pouted his lips like a little kid hating the idea of letting Carolina out of his sight even if it was for a little while. How

    Hardulph was curious to know why Connor was suddenly angry when he learned that Mirabel was in the restroom. He was confused because he did not expect such a reaction from Connor. For all Hardulph knew, Connor hates Mirabel with everything in him so why does it look like he is suddenly worried about where she had gone off to?"Is there a problem?" Hardulph narrowed his eyes at Connor who cursed inaudibly while pushing his fingers into his hair in frustration."Of course, there is a big problem. Mirabel is in the same restroom where my mate had gone off to. It's been a while since Carolina left and she has not returned. Don't you think that something wrong is going on there? You and I know how bad their relationship is Hardulph." Connor rapped and dashed out of the skating rink.Hardulph finally understood the reason Connor asked Mirabel. He didn't waste time in following Connor, skating closely behind him.The both of them rushed to the female restroom to see for themselves what the

    The man's face had some cuts and bruises which he sustained from Connor's punches. He had a black eye already but Connor did not look like he cared. He tightened his hold on the man's neck, his fingers digging deep into his skin. Connor hit the man again and his nose bleed still he wasn't satisfied.He punched him over again until his fist was stained with blood and the man's face was covered in his blood. His lips were swollen and saliva was starting to drip from his mouth.Connor wanted to end this man once and for all but the thoughts of losing vital information which will go a long way in seeing that he can decipher the identity of the unknown blackmailer who brought nothing but sorrow to his home made him force himself to stop.He snarled at the man whose face was already bloody."Who are you and what is your mission here?" Connor gritted out. The young man went mute, not willing to say a word to Connor, this got him infuriated as he pulled the man up with his hands, away from

    Mirabel could not resist the lingering feeling that Connor's uncle was the one behind her attack but at the same time, she felt like it was another person who was after her life.Mirabel trusted Mr. Gregory so much that she doubted he would do something so brutal to her even without hearing from her side of the story."Maybe he had sent that man after me to instill fear in me and also to remind me that he would do whatever he threatens to do to me. Maybe he didn't mean to injure me so badly" Mirabel thought to herself.Though she was unsure of the exact reason Connor's uncle decided to threaten her life the way he did, she knew he was not two-faced, especially when it comes to their plans. He definitely wouldn't hurt Mirabel especially when she still has a huge role to play in seeing that his plans come into existence.Mirabel did not want to keep thinking that Connor's uncle was the one that wanted to harm her and so she shoved the thoughts away.Mirabel as well thought that maybe h

    Mirabel's face fell when Connor left her ward, her hopes that Connor had visited her to know how she was faring after the incident were crushed to pieces.She was disappointed when she realized that Connor had only shown up in her room just to send her a warning to stay away from Him and his mate and nothing more.Mirabel was enraged, she was already getting tired of the same threats from Connor every time he met her and couldn't wait to put an end to it. She was still brooding over how unconcerned Connor was to her but to Carolina when the door knob was squeezed open and a happy Hardulph entered the ward with hands full of presents for Mirabel.A wide smile spread on her face when she saw that her visitor was Hardulph and he did not come empty-handed. Mirabel could feel butterflies fluttering in her belly just by the presence of Hardulph in her room."Look who finally woke up" Hardulph sang with a smug smile as he made his way inside the ward."Hardulph!" Mirabel exclaimed happily,

    Carolina was surprised, she squinted her eyes open to see that she was close to the water but not too close for the Crocs to jump and attack her. She took her eyes up and saw someone running hurriedly towards her. He controlled the leveler and it took her away from the Crocs that were still waiting for her beneath the leveler. Carolina was speechless as he watched the man try to unchain her hands, "Someone came to save me? Unbelievable!" She exclaimed in her mind, her heart gladdened. The man's face came into view and Carolina's brows furrowed, "Uncle Gregory?" She uttered, staring at the man in confusion. "That's right Carolina, it's me" he returned and pulled off the chain locs with so much force that it broke open. "I came to save you and to as well warn you to stay safe. Liliana is alive, I'm sure about this because she is the one that has put you in this position. To kill you off" Mr Gregory added, helping Carolina out of the leveler. He looked like he truly wanted to he

    Carolina was convinced that Jackson has a hand in the kidnap because why else did he insist on seeing me even after I had tried to make him understand that I couldn't? She could feel her face turning red in rage as she figured out that it was all his plan to have her killed. He betrayed her!

    "And what's that about?" Alpha Connor asked, out of curiosity. "I have offended you gravely and I am really sorry about that. Actually, Liliana sent Helen and I to you, so we can destroy you from within, but after being together like this, as if we are friends, it made me realize how much I missed you and how deep my offence is." Hadrulph apologized, then knelt before him. "Forgive me, friend. I really want to leave here, soon and I can't, without my pup, because he is still alive. I will appreciate it if you devise a plan to save my pup and then tell her that you got whiff of our plans and then you have gotten rid of us. Once I have my pup, neither I or my family will show their face." Hadrulph said as a tear fell from his eyes, to the ground. Alpha Connor who had already gotten wind of their plans was not shocked, but he was surprised that Hadrulph would actually turn a new leaf just after this experience. ~ "Wow. So he confessed?" Carolina exclaimed, with her eyes, bulging out.

  • The Purchased Luna    Confession?

    “So, how did it go? Did they buy your lies?” Liliana asked, impatiently. “Yes, they did. I guess Connor still trusts me as a friend.” Hadrulph said, with a smirk. “Are you certain that we are safe, playing this game?” Helen asked, feeling frightened. “As long as you do not get caught before you strike.” Liliana said as she used her index finger to raise Helen’s chin. “And Connor will not get a whiff of what’s going on until we hit him hard and it is too late for him to strike back.” Hadrulph smiled, feeling ready to take Connor down, bits by bits. “Good. I love that zeal and confidence. You can both leave.” Liliana said, with a smile on her face. The next day, Alpha Connor mind-linked Jack to come over. When Jack got to Alpha Connor’s house, Alpha Connor came out with Carolina. “Let’s go to the villa.” “Alright, Alpha.” Jack drove them to the villa and then they all gathered in a circle. “Now, here is the update. Hadrulph visited Carolina and I, yesterday and they claimed to

    Alpha Connor woke up with sweats breaking out and then he went to the sitting room to drink water and calm down. Carolina on the other hand was having a dream as well. It seemed those moments were affecting them as well. ...The dream... Carolina's eyes widened as the realization of how dangerous her environment was flashed at the back of her mind. "How did I even end up here? Who brought me down here? What exactly happened?" Carolina asked rhetorically, staring inside the murky water covered with a herd of hungry crocodiles just beneath her. She felt the surface she was standing on wobble and reduce in height, her heart palpitating in so much fear. Carolina staggered slightly but didn't fall because of the chains that were used to securely hold her hands above her head so that she would not free herself. She tugged violently at the chain but it did not show any sign of coming off soon instead she felt very weak on the inside. It was so weird to her because Carolina could rec

    Connor and Carolina were watching a movie when they heard a knock from the door and Connor went to open the door and was shocked to see Hadrulph and Helen. "What are you both doing here?" He asked, with his right eyebrow, raised and didn't want to bother about Helen who was said to have been held hostage and sick. Hadrulph and Helen were both nervous and unsure of how to start. Hardulph was the first to speak. “We came to apologize.” Hadrulph said and cleared his throat. “Apologize? I do not understand what is going on.” Alpha Connor said, looking baffled and staring at them with distrust. “Can we just come in?” Hadrulph asked, looking innocent. Alpha Connor was reluctant to allow them to come in, but Carolina signaled to him that it was fine, so he allowed them to come in and they sat on the couch, but Alpha Connor did not offer them anything. “Now, what do you have to say?” Alpha Connor asked, with his arms, folded. “I just want to apologize for my actions. To be honest, I

    Hadrulph fondled the breast before settling his fingers on the nipple, making her gasp his name. He slowly snaked his tongue up till he got to his ear. He gently picked the tip of it and sucked on it before flicking his tongue into her earlobe. She shivered and purred. Feeling her legs turn to jelly, she quickly placed one of her hands on the wall while the other found his head and ran through his hair. He snaked his free hand under her dress and traced her thigh till he got to her vagina. His hand was so big and it covered her frontals completely. As he tried to find his way in, she widened her legs and shot out her butts, colliding with his hard cock. Her breath was unheaven and just feeling that hardness crushed against her behind was enough to heighten my excitement. I felt myself clenching involuntarily as I widened my legs the more, eagerly waiting for him. The moment he made contact with clits, my body quivered and leaned into him. She must have moaned really loud becaus

    He had his bath and felt refreshed, wore his clothes and went downstairs to the dining room, where Alpha Gerald and Layla were eating their meal already. He looked around and saw that the maids really prepared a bountiful meal today and they were still busy in the kitchen. "Good morning, Alpha Connor. I hope you enjoyed your night?" Alpha Gerald asked, with concern. "Yes, I did. Is there any celebration going on? I can see that the maids are really busy in the kitchen this morning." He asked, hoping to get an answer, because it might be something confidential and they might not want to talk about it. "Uhm.... We are celebrating the day our kingdom gained independence from Black Moon Pack. You know about the story, right?" He asked as he drank his cup of coffee. "Yes. Although, I only know a little out of it." He replied as I moved closer to the dining table. "Yes, that little you know is certainly the main thing that happened. All other information is just a detailed story of how

    He chuckled, because he was funny with what he said. Years back, he had said the same thing, when he asked questions from his father. "Well, it will pay one day. If I didn't do my homework and read well, I might not be able to answer your question." Alpha Connor said, trying to convince the little guy. "Hmmm.... I see." "Well, a few things that I know about stingrays, they are friendly and gentle. The biggest weigh 700 pounds. They are curious and are part of the shark family." Alpha Connor listed and folded my arms. "Whoa... They are one interesting specie." He said, nodding his head slowly. "Thank you, I really appreciate it." He appreciated me, then went back to his parents. The fishes seemed like they were really comfortable in their abode. He had waited about thirty minutes and was beginning to get tired of watching these gloomy looking fishes. Then someone tapped him and he looked back. "I'm back. Sorry I kept you waiting." She apologized, with a bright smile. Somehow, he
