"It's all about Helen, Hardulph's mate" she smirked and turned her face towards Hardulph who suddenly looked shocked at the mention of his mate. "Shocking right? I know" she chuckled menacingly."I managed to keep the annoying brat alive, but not for long though. I'm certain her condition at the time being is pitiful" She dropped the bombshell and everyone's eyes widened in astonishment.She smirked to herself, enjoying the surprised looks she was seeing on their faces, especially on that Hardulph's.Liliana turned her face back to Connor, keeping a sinister smile on her face, "Pull the damn trigger on me and be an obstruction to your friend's happiness" She smirked and began walking backward."Shoot me with that gun, then Hardulph should get ready to receive Helen back into his life but in shreds. He will receive her corpse instead, I guarantee you" She added and began to cackle while staring straight into Connor's eyes.Hardulph growled and Liliana walked towards him, laughing hys
Mirabel and Luc could not believe their ears. "What is this all about? What stunt is Liliana trying to pull?" They wondered in their minds, staring at each other in the utmost confusion.Liliana was still smirking, her eyes held pure mockery as she stared from Connor to Hardulph and Jack. She gave Mirabel and Luc a smug smile and waved the phone in the air. Helen looked like she was stifling in a cry, Hardulph's face creased in so much worry. He stared at Liliana's smirking face as if pleading with her.Connor on the other hand was still confused, he stared at Liliana and the phone in her hand before looking towards Mirabel and Luc who were as well looking confused. Luc tried to say something but nothing was forthcoming from his lips. He just shut his mouth and kept looking on in confusion."It's. it's not real, Liliana made this up" Mirabel stuttered, still confused about how Helen may be indeed alive. "This is fake, Liliana faked this voice call. It is probably a voice note Hel
"Time is up gentlemen, you have your proof" Liliana spoke up when she saw they were speaking secretly to HelenShe was sure it would not be in her favor and needed to put a bridge to it at once. The man who was looking after, more like assisting Helen immediately took the phone out of Helen's hands and switched it off before they would even say a proper goodbye to one another.Hardulph wanted to keep talking but Helen was already out of the line before he could request some more minutes."Do you believe me now?" Liliana asked with a smug smile.Connor and Hardulph did not reply, they only turned to Jack whose forehead was creased as he stared at his phone in disbelief.He was utterly confused with whatever it is he was operating.Liliana burst out laughing so loud, all attention was dragged towards her again. The Alphas wondered what was amiss with her."Track it" she stated like a psychopath folding her hands over her breast, her chin held high, and a smug smirk forming on her lips.
"My freedom from this damned dungeon in exchange for Helen's life and her release too. Are you in or are you out?" Liliana asked word by word, a smirk plastered on her face. Mirabel rolled her eyes inwardly at Liliana's request. She was not surprised to hear such a condition from Liliana. She had been suspecting that this was only Liliana's tactic to get out of this dungeon all along."It's such a pity that Connor and Hardulph fell right into her trap and now they would have no other choice than to dance right into her tunes" she mumbled within herself.Connor squinted his eyes at Liliana. He did not like the condition she laid before him and to crown it all, he did not even trust her one bit. Hardulph on the other hand was excited about the news. It was his chance to save his mate even if it cost the loss of Connor's enemy who should have been taught a lesson for all of her mischief.His mate's life was in danger and if releasing Liliana in exchange for his mate to come back to hi
Liliana gave Hardulph a reassuring smile "You have my word Hardulph. Helen would be brought to you as soon as you take me out of here" Liliana stated.Hardulph nodded and walked out of the dungeon after Jack in a bid to look for him and have a heart-to-heart talk with him.Meanwhile, Connor drove straight to the hospital at high speed. He rushed towards Carolina's ward, his heart in his mouth. He tried to barge into Carolina's room only to be stopped by the hospital security who held him back from running into the room.He took a quick peep at Carolina through the glass door and saw some doctor's around her, probably attending to her. "Mr Connor, please come with me" One of the doctors announced to Connor as soon as he sighted him.Connor pushed the security off and walked behind the doctor to his office to hear whatever it is he had to say. "It better be good, else he wouldn't like the outcome," Connor said in his mind as he made himself comfortable in the office by sitting in the
Hardulph was thrown at crossroads, it was more like he was in a dilemma. Deep inside of him, he knew that there was a possibility that Liliana might have something up to her sleeves but when he saw the glint in her eyes, it bought him instantly as he stared intently at her face before he ran his fingers through his hair.Liliana seeing that Hardulph was at crossroads tried to add more fuel to the fire as she leaned against the wall with a smile creeping at the corner of her lips. "It seems to me that you don't care about Helen because if you cared about her? You wouldn't be thinking twice about your actions!" She said with a creepy smile plastered on her face. Hardulph raised a brow and as much as he wanted to wrap his fingers around Liliana's neck and snap the soul out of her, he couldn't do much because he didn't want to annoy Liliana before she changes her mind or something. "Give me Helen first. As you said before, this thing is a trade by barter stuff and if you don't give me He
Liliana drove off in Hardulphs car and a sinister smile spread across her face. The screams of horror both from Helen who was being burnt alive and from Hardulph who screamed helplessly sounded like music to her ears. She kept laughing, increasing the volume of the music that was blasting in the car.Liliana muttered to herself. "I am doing this for you Mirabel! I might have been harsh on you but this is my promise of avenging on your behalf. Now, I have to take my revenge on that bitch who turned me into this monster! She ruined my life, she ruined my happiness and she took Connor from me! I am going to kill you Carolina and you would regret ever meeting me" Liliana laughed to herself but all of a sudden, her eyes almost bulged out of their sockets when she saw Hardulph in his werewolf form running after her as if his life depended on it. Luckily for Hardulph, some firefighters were passing during that period and they brought out Helen who was greatly affected by the fire, and took
Hardulph’s mouth went agape, seeing the car blow up in flames, then he shouted loudly, in pain. “Nooooo!” He wanted to run to the car that blew up in flames, but he was hit by another car, causing him to fall to the ground and then he was shot. Blood gurgled out of his mouth and he could only stare at the sky. Liliana got out of the car, with a triumphant smile, then walked to him and bent down to his weak body. “I told you I would release her, but I didn’t say I wouldn’t do anything I wanted with her after I released her.” She scoffed, then left and drove off with her goons. Hardulph felt weak and removed his phone from his pocket, with the little strength he had left and then he dialed Connor’s number. As Connor picked up, Hardulph went unconscious. “Hello, hello, hello Hardulph. Are you there?” Connor kept calling out to Hardulph. At the hospital, Connor went back to Carolina’s ward and held her hand as the doctors were no longer with her. She seemed stable, but she was not w
