59. I need to go
Jade's POV
Nathan may have delivered my message to that annoying alpha. I can't wait to see his bum red and bruised next time he comes to see me.
'I hope so. I hope he really hurts his stubborn butt.'
I slumped into my bed and threw my face in my hands. There's nothing I had wanted more than working beside Zach. The need to prove myself is unwavering. I want to show him I am able and I can face the challenges his paranormal world has to offer me.
I don't deny that I was fragile when I came here. Now I am an improved version of myself. I possess all the abilities that are required to survive in this world. With Luke's shared knowledge and medical training, I am more confident. Vicky has also helped me with some hooks I can use on enemies to protect myself.
Then there's the dagger-- my lucky dagger that is always with me. The same dagger I used to stab Zach
60. No, not my Jade!!!Jade's POVRelief washed over me as soon as I stepped inside the living hall. "Hey, Jade!" I was greeted by the eldest caretaker Mrs. Flanagan with a welcoming grin."I missed you all so much. Thought to stop by for a while." I smiled back, not giving away the worry Luke had installed in me with his quaking words.Mrs. Flanagan wiped her hands on the apron before her belly. She took my hands and took me to the middle of the hall where a couple of elders were playing poker."That's good you came. Our beautiful Avery's been talking about you since your last visit.""Really, Avery? What am I hearing? You really missed me?" kneeling beside an old lady, I raised my brows of amazement.Avery is known for being grumpy. She has a habit of picking faults in everything nice. When I had come here for the first time, she had
61. A mafia backup Zach's Pov I felt my heart tearing apart as my eyes caught the sight of my woman lying unconscious on a hospital bed. Her head was wounded with a bandage and she was put on IV. The doctor said she was well except for the gash on her waist that bled like a stream. Luckily not much of her blood streamed out as my soldiers arrived at the spot soon after the attack happened. I gawked at her pallid face, the white band of gauze making her look more vulnerable than what Luke said she was. I took her hand and kissed her knuckles. Why do you have to go there, Jade? Why didn't you listen to me? My wolf sighed as the questions spiraled in my head. 'She's a curious cat and she couldn't keep it to herself.' I ignored his remark and tried to push back the burning from my eyes. I didn't want Jade to work on the case for I was afraid to lose her. She's not my mate, but her presence is far more addictive than I could imagine. The woman has branded me. To say I was dominat
62. We're brothers now Zach's Pov "The head of Bratva, really?" I tried to keep disdain from my tone. "Just amazed or scared, Zach?" I chuckled and locked eyes with the head of the Bratva, sitting across from me in my house. "Impressed would be the correct word here." I replied and tossed a grape in my mouth. The head of the elder in the box turned my knees to mush, but I was sober enough to ask my dad to arrange a meeting with whoever he said was able to help me now. When dad mentioned I needed help from Mafia clans, I didn't think he meant the leader of the Russian Mafia. I don't have to sing songs of their strength. It is the biggest and one of the baddest mafia organizations in the world, and runs some of the dangerous money-multiplying businesses throughout the world. "When we met five months ago when I was in the training academy and you offered me a proposal of merger, I didn't think you really meant it." I smiled again. Rogue Cordiero, the Russian mafia king threw hi
63. Mad boyfriendJade's POVI woke up with a gasp. My heart banged in my chest and I lifted a hand to cover it. "Jade," A hand brushed over my shoulder and I found Katie sitting to my right on a stool."Katie? You're home already?" I tried to sit up but she pushed me down."Lay back, I'll have to call Luke to check on you first." She said, "And yeah, I came back two days ago."She went out the door while I laid back, feeling a mild irritation around my belly. I trailed a hand on the aching spot and realized it was bandaged. Instantly, my hand lifted up to my head and I was not surprised to find another bandage on my head.The memories from the evening in the old of age home whisked in my head, causing a vortex of emotions to build up. The elders. I couldn't help but sit straight and try to breathe in deep. The sight of the elders dead all around me made my eyes water.I couldn't do a thing to help save them. Not even to a single one."Jade," I looked up from my palms to the door at L
64. He's angry Jade's POV I was staring at the door when I felt a hand grace my shoulder. Forcing a smile at Luna, I looked through my stock of excuses to give her one. "Don't mind him, honey," She settled next to me on the bed. "He's been like that since that day. I am his mother, and to say he didn't spare me either." I wish I could ignore him. But I did mind his leave. I couldn't help though. He came like a nice monsoon rain and left like a spinning tornado. Others seemed unpolluted, but I felt as if the room was shuddering in the wake of his departure. He was the last person of all to accept and let me into the pack. Somehow he became the only person who knew me through and through. To others it was a day full of miseries and shock. But I know that the day had been atrocious and wearing out for him. He was caught off-guard from all the four sides, not knowing what and how to do, and I added to it. "Look at this," She pulled out a present wrapped in shimmery wine colo
65. Punish me Zach's Pov My nerves calmed down as I thrusted my tongue inside her mouth. Relief spread through my system and all the tightness in my muscles came to a rest. I allowed my heart to beat properly at a normal, stable rate, as I held her by the waist and pulled her closer. She has no idea what I have been through. It was a ride to hell and back. Thanks to the Unholy Allies that I am still alive. Otherwise has anyone ever made it back home breathing while he's been shot four times in different spots on his body? I did, and I did it because I refused to die before taking my revenge on the brutal players of the grooming factory. Another reason is her. I could not die while she was lying unconscious in bed-- unaware of her boyfriend being in a deathly war with a group of gangsters. Jade tapped her hand to stop me, her action frantic as I felt her body shudder with the need to suck in oxygen. I let go of her mouth while my arm was still a burning band around her waist. My ho
66. Cat wants to play with the Alpha Zach's POV Shock washed over her features. She felt light weight on me and cold. I raised my hands to hold her waist, only she held my hands at a distance and stepped down the bed. "You got shot?" Fear laced her voice as she eyed me accusingly. "It's not that bad. See, the wound is close." I got up, attempting again to hold her into my arms. The coldness doesn't sit right with me when we're in the same room and I cannot hold her. My grumpiness was escalating every time she slapped my hand away or took a step back, keeping me at a distance. "I go away for two days and you get shot. What's going on, Zach? Why do you have to do this to me?" My jaw dropped. My eyes flickered as I endeavored to keep anger away from my features. But the more she opened her mouth, the more allegations spilled as if I did something wrong. At one point, she accused me of not loving her as much as she did. It exploded the bubble of my resistance and I grabbed
67. Ruin me, Alpha Jade's POV Wetness pooled between my legs as I faltered and stopped a few steps away from Zach. Oh my god. I wished I hadn't said that. "I'm afraid someone will walk in and see you like this." I gave him a nervous look, but I was certain it was edged with the excitement growing in my chest at the sight of his thick shaft. His eyes grazed me like a lion hungry for weeks. His mouth parted and hands fisted to his side. I felt something twisting in my belly when my gaze landed on his cock standing against the stroke of black hair across his stomach. Seeing the redness of his cock, my cheeks burned. I wanted to go for it, take it in my mouth and suck it like a lollipop. Except I was too frozen to my spot to make a move. The growing hunger in his eyes had me rooted. It was as if I was electrocuted with every nerve in my body pulsating with need. I watched his eyes drop to the floor. His lips parted and his tongue darted out to wet the circumference of his upper
Unholy Allies #2: Mr. Rogue King, Can You Kidnap Me Please? Blurb: Kathrine Raynott I was barely three when my father, Alpha Lincoln, sold me off to a sixty year old bastard to settle his debts. All these years I've tried all that it takes to escape Alpha Lincoln's hell-like mansion. I have one last time to try ten minutes before my twenty-first birthday party begins. And this time I managed to escape... Except in a sack with a handkerchief around my mouth and eyes blindfolded... Kidnapped! Rogue Cordiero A businessman in the daylight and the Bratva boss in the night, I live a life I have written for myself. And they fear to conduct business with me as I hate being cheated. So when a foolish Alpha tries it with me, I'm determined to take back what's mine along with his daughter. She's gorgeous. Eleven years younger but a seductress that's got my eyes hooked to her little body. She's a fighter.... I like fighters! The only problem is that... She's been sold and she's bee
134. HEA: The Savage Alpha claimed his Rebel Last Chapter Jade's POV Inching his face up, he bruised my collarbone with a red bite as his devilish eyes dared me to moan. Bloody Asshole Alpha. He was challenging me. I wouldn't mind doing it, but I was afraid he would really open the door. Zach could do it. He's done many things he said before and I was not stupid that I would try it just to see how it would really end up if I moaned. I gripped my mouth tighter as I was close. Breathing hard, I whimpered. Zach glared at me again as he gestured to me to not do that either. Bloody control freak. He curled his fingers deeper as something quivered in my gut and exploded. "Nice control, Jade Salvay. I didn't expect you to..." He kneaded my breasts and spanked them. "Hold it so long!" He then lowered his mouth to clean my pussy off the evidence of my strong orgasm while I rested back on the seat like a beaten up pup. When Zach was done, he put my panties in place and patted my cli
133. They're married Jade's POV"I do." The happiness in my voice echoed in the room as I answered the priest's question.He then turned to Zach and asked the same question to him, "Alpha Zach Salvay, do you take Jade Thornton to be your wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do you part?" "I do... With all my heart." Warmth spiraled within me when he announced that in a loud and clear voice that echoed off the walls.Then we exchanged the rings. When Zach slipped the ring onto my finger, my mouth parted in amazement. It twinkled on my finger like a star in the sky. Zach lifted my hand and kissed it. The glint in his eyes and the hoots increasing behind us indicated that we were pronounced as husband and wife, and it was time that Zach should kiss his bride. He held my waist possessively, and as I was looking at him, he pulled me closer and put his lips on
132. Misunderstanding cleared Zach's POV When I stirred to consciousness, a pang of pain shot through my chest. I hissed and remained still until the pain reduced. Sucking in a deep gulp of oxygen, I tried to get up. Surprise held me immobile as my nostrils flared with Jade's alluring scent and my eyes stalled on her beautiful face. She was sleeping soundly with her head resting on her hand that was put on the edge of the bed I was spread over. I blinked my eyes and moved my aching shoulder. The electrocuting pain confirmed that I was not dreaming. Jade was as real as the pain from the bullet punctures in my chest. Although in other cases, after waking up I went after the people who harmed me. In this case, I didn't care who was behind it or for what reason they had to shoot me. I had Jade here sitting on a stool, in a very fucking uncomfortable position, right by my side. Having her here beside me is all I would ever ask for. And if such attacks are able to bring her closer to m
131. Mom will never go again Jade's POV"Zach!!!" I ran to him as he collapsed on his back. Redness soaked his black t-shirt and three visible bullet wounds pooled like little ponds with overflowing blood.His father growled like a mad beast and jumped out of the car. Curses spilled from his mouth as he shifted into a werewolf, so big and tall that my eyes widened in fright, and ran after the speeding up van. "Zach," His name resounded dreadful on my lips as I sat next to him. Seeing his oozing blood, I began to hyperventilate. A raw and primitive grief overwhelmed me. My fingers shook as I held his face. It was cold... Like the face of a dead corpse would feel. He spurted blood out of his mouth and a haywire occurred in my system. Even then there was a smirk on his face. "You still care for me, Jade." The corners of his mouth quivered before he passed out on a gasp. I felt my heart plummeting in my stomach. I screamed as loudly as I could and within minutes the school's staff
130. Jade knows the truth Jade's POV My eyes lingered on the date carved on the headstone. The date of her death. It was the same when I concluded that Zach cheated on me and decided to take the matters of my mother's death's revenge in my own hands.I can't forget that date. It's etched in my mind.I blinked my eyes and averted my eyes towards Alpha Zavier's face, "This is... Gianna... She is dead? But Zach... His mate. And Lelah," My mind was blacking out. I rubbed a trembling hand on my face, "Lelah is not his daughter?" A painful smile danced on his shaking lips. He slowly shook his head left and right, "Lelah is Gianna and her husband Richie's daughter. He's resting over there." I fearfully followed the direction of his pointing finger. My breathing fractured as I laid my eyes on the grave next to Gianna's. The headstone has the name, Richard Donovan, and the epitaph below it read: An obedient son, loving husband, a devoted father. "Gianna already had a family before she me
129. Meeting Gianna I didn't sleep the whole night for two reasons. One I didn't want to get into that bed again. I was afraid Zach might sneak into my room to touch me. Second because my stomach was growling and I didn't have the guts to go out and grab some food from the kitchen.It's not like I was not offered any food. Zach came in with a trolley full of food I would have loved to dig in. Then Katie too came to visit me followed by Jenna. Chris and Vicky didn't stay behind in the line as they came to see me with chocolates and junk food that I politely refused as I asked some privacy of my own. While they were happy to see me, I was not even one bit happy about any of this. I sat by the window doing nothing but stare at the dark sky. Although I think I saw Zach smoke back to back cigarettes while he was standing out in the open and discussing something with his father, he could die for all I cared. It was his lungs and if he wanted to spoil them by puffing ten cigarettes in one
128. Jade wants to leave?! Jade's POV I didn't know when I fell asleep. But when I woke up again, I had Zach lying next to me and his fingers playing with my hair. I flinched away from him and got out of the bed. "What are you doing here?" My gaze fell on the sky outside the window. "I was waiting for you to wake up. You didn't come to lunch, dad. It's dinner time now." It was pitch black. I didn't realize I didn't wake up for hours. Zade wasn't in the room either. Panic began to rise up within me for not having him around. "He's with Lelah in their room." Zach said. Their room? As if he read my thoughts, he got up and closed the gap between and added, "They've decided to share a room together and Nathan modified it within a few hours as per their requirements." I moved a few steps away so he couldn't lay his hands on me. Sweeping a gaze around the room, I realized the clothes were gone too. "I took care of your closet." Zach walked towards it and slid the door aside
127. Zade's time in the mansion Jade's POV"Welcome back to your room again, Jade." Ice spread through me as I gawked at the interior of the room that used to be mine when I lived here.It was in the same condition. Nothing changed. From the hangings I used to decorate the room to the curtains of my choice, they were still intact."You must be surprised seeing everything as it is." He removed the curtains from the huge window. "Zach never let anyone change anything in your room. He would clean it with his own hands except for today." I preferred to stay quiet and took baby steps towards the bed. The first thing I reminisced while looking at it was our time we spent naked in bed. Seeing the white sheets lay clean and tidy on the mattress made my heart swirl. I quickly averted my gaze and tried to cover those thoughts with something else. "I would like to be alone please." I didn't even try to look at Nathan. "Please, bring Zade back to me whenever Luke is done examining him.""Alrig
