Chapter 75 You deserve better MIDNIGHT PACK: CLARK'S HOMEAlice and Jovy walked into the house to find Anna in the kitchen making some nice dish. Anna turned around when she heard their footsteps. "Hey girls, how was school today?" She called out to them."Very fine ma'am." Jovy responded, pulling out a stool next to the kitchen island to sit down."Why are you the one cooking?" Alice asked, wondering what had gotten into her mother all of a sudden and why the in house chef isn't around."Oh, I asked the chef to take a break. I would like for us to eat together and maybe talk." Anna replied as she checked the oven for what she placed in it."Hmmm, what are you cooking? It smells really nice." Jovy commended.Anna chuckled lightly. “Roasted chicken and some Italian pasta.""I can't believe you went all out." Alice noted while her eyes sighted something. "Are those muffins?" She asked, pointing at the set pastries on the far end of the kitchen island."Yes but you aren't suppose
Chapter 76 The Deception MIDNIGHT PACK: CLARK’S HOMESeeing Jovy’s expression, Alice and Anna ran towards her with each of them on her side. "What's the matter Jovy? Why do you look like you had heard from a ghost." Alice inquired, shaking her intensely.Getting a hold of herself, Jovy stared at them. "My dad wants me to be at a place by five.""Did he state any reason why?" Anna asked."No, he only said to meet him at an address he would forward to my phone now. And I shouldn't be a second late.” Jovy replied.Alice went to Jovy’s bag to dig out her phone, unlocking the phone she went straight to her message. Her brows twitched in confusion. “Why would he send you an address to the Council?"Jovy and Anna moved to Alice. Anna took the phone from her. "This is where the Alpha and the rest of the pack council members meet and converse."Jovy bit on her lips hard as she tried to keep still. "Do you think I have been reported to the Alpha by my dad?"Anna nodded. "Maybe.""Ma
Chapter 77 Why so many why’s MIDNIGHT PACKJovy screamed like a maniac, trying hard to wake herself up from the dream. When she had walked into the board room, she should have known it wasn't going to be a good deal for her. Looking towards her father, she couldn't believe he would go to such length just to get rid of her.No one had seen the Mystic Shadows Alpha before but he is described to be ruthless and cruel in his actions. For years, his fortress council members had been on a search to get him a mate and it had been a futile search as no one was interested in becoming a victim of torture and depression. Jovy felt like her whole world was crashing down on her and the ache she felt in her chest was explosive.The Alpha and his pack council members stared in awe at Jovy’s reaction as she kept screaming and throwing out her legs like she would go mad. They knew she would be unsettled with the deal but none of them expected her to loose her mind this way. Letting out all
Chapter 78 Bride to a monster MIDNIGHT PACK PREMISESLogan and Kyrian shared a look when their eyes landed on Jovy. Logan’s wolf had been restless the moment they entered the premises, almost like it could feel the presence of a familiar person.Jovy looked weak as she stood, almost like she would pass out. The moment she moved trying to walk towards Logan, he made a swift turn towards the room. Logan ignored her like they had never met before. She blinked back the tears that threatened to fall at his attitude. Jovy wondered what Logan was doing in the premises and also heading into the board room. It made her curious and for a moment she forgot about her own troubles. Seeing how messy she looked, she headed down the hall in search of the rest room.The look on Logan’s face looked like it would slice through every existing soul in the room. He had clearly told Kyrian that he wasn't interested in coming to the said meeting. However, Kyrian had insisted on him seeing the girl f
Chapter 79 Her betrothed MIDNIGHT PACK: CLARK’S HOMEAlice paced the room back and forth, feeling uncomfortable and a dark sensation keeps hovering over her thoughts as she moved around. Anna heaved a sigh as she sipped from the cup she had in hand."You should have some green tea baby. It would help relax your mind.” Anna offered.Alice threw her head back in frustration and she let out a loud groan. “There is no way I can keep calm mom. I know what Jovy’s father is capable of and I can affirm it to you that they are about to do something cruel to Jovy’s future. My wolf’s instinct is never wrong.”"I really wish there is a way for me to help, but it's not in my place to interfere."Alice walked up to her mother and knelt down in front of her. "You can still do something mom. You have just about enough resources. You can adopt her."Anna sighed. “This isn't the human world baby. Here we don't question parents and what they do with their children especially when the Alpha is inv
Chapter 80 Not a bad idea MYSTIC SHADOWS FORTRESS"I want to believe I am dreaming right now. Did you set this up Logan?" Kyrian inquired as he took a seat opposite Logan, still in awe that Jovy had been the chosen bride.They had just returned from Midnight pack and were seated in Logan’s study. Logan blinked without saying anything."Wow! Just wow! You bad wolf! How did you do it? You knew she was the one all this while?" Kyrian grinned. He sounded like an excited five years old who has just been given a candy.Logan growled inwardly. He was getting tired of hearing his Beta whine all day about him knowing Jovy was the girl chosen for him. He is just as surprised as Kyrian was, even though he was more good at hiding it. There was no way he would have thought it to be her, he was more curious as to why she was the one given away as the bounty price.He had noticed some faint scars on her body the number of times they had sex. If her wolf wasn't latent she would have h
Chapter 81 The inheritance MIDNIGHT PACK: FINLAY’S HOMETommy paced the room back and forth with his hands trembling. He wished Linda was near him cause he would have found comfort in her presence but nothing seem right at the moment as it felt like his heart would flip out of his chest.Jovy’s reaction at the end of the whole discussion made him really scared and bothered. The thought of Jovy bailing out on him and having the brothers on his neck made him shiver. To clear his doubt, he had asked one of his men to follow Jovy and ensure she never leaves Alice’s house until she is heading back home the next day.Sitting on the edge of the bed, Tommy pulled at his tie feeling uncomfortable. He felt the urge to call Linda so bad at the same time he didn't want to expose himself with Ava showing up when he least expects. There was the need for someone to assure him that it would all be good. Tommy had made plans to leave as soon as he can the moment he hands Jovy over the next
Chapter 82 Escape route MIDNIGHT PACK: CLARK’S HOMEAlice chewed on her nails really hard almost drawing blood from it. She had been awake since the middle of the night. She had gone into the woods, shifted and ran several miles. It still didn't stop the anxiousness she felt. She felt the urge to scream out into the heavens and wake up from what she considers a dream. As the dawn drew near, Alice wished she could do something to stop it.The thought of Jovy being taken away from her to an unknown place where her life might probably end, made Alice wish the world would come to an end to save her beloved friend from the impending ruin of her life.Anna stood by the stairs watching her daughter move around with her head bowed in despair. She hadn't been able to sleep either. Alice’s wolf had stayed awake all through the night wailing silently. She could sense it as Alice had been loose with her emotions not bothering to guard herself. Anna wished she could help ease the pain h
