I took a break from this story, but I am back now and ready to finish it. Thank you all for being patient and supporting my dream. You all kept this book alive.🤗🤗❤️❤️
The sun finally came down, and Cynthia was ready to go clubbing. She drank so much, trying to numb her pain and practically slurred her words. She was determined to try her luck with Ivy club this time and hoped to catch the eye of the dashing owner, who was also the manager. She had instructed Meadow to keep her rescue activities out of her wing. She wanted to avoid seeing the released prisoners or knowing what Meadow was doing. Cynthia decided to ask her favourite warrior, who was a Beta, to drive her to the club. When she got there, she did not feel alright, but instead of walking away from the place and going home to sleep off the alcohol in her system, she went into the club. The place was a bit silent when she walked in. Everyone knew what she had done and the position she held now. They didn't like her. She ignored the atmospheric change and headed for the VIP section, but a bouncer obstructed her. His actions confused her, but he did not care. The Gamma breed stood befo
Ashley had sunk into depression after she left the clinic that day. Telling herself she was alright was lying to herself. She felt a hollowness that only love and companionship could fill up. It was hard for her to go back to her parent's house. She spent three days in a hotel gathering the courage to face her mother. She thought of Joseph and what he might be doing, and her heart broke every time she realised it was over.Ashley entered the relationship seeking power, hoping to become Luna, but somehow she had fallen for the man. She hoped she was pregnant and got to keep him by all means. After crying for two days and watching the flowers a stranger sent to her die, she finally braced up and headed home.Ashley did not get a welcome as she expected. Her father nearly denied her entrance, but Ashley pleaded they let her stay for six months. So she could get a job and get a small place. Going back home was a big mistake. Ashley's parents weren't kind to her. It made her heart a
Joseph returned home from the hospital to put some things in order before returning to keep Leah company. After he was done with the documents in his room, he decided to speak to Victoria about the list that Meadow had asked her to compile. He knocked on her door, which took a bit before she answered. He knew she must have been exhausted from helping Meadow attend to the prisoners that were released. He was grateful to Meadow and Victoria for getting Cynthia to do this. He was honestly worried for everyone they locked up. The moment she opened the door, her cheeks coloured. Joseph wondered what embarrassed her. He did not miss that she was wearing silk nightwear that had a top with thin straps and short silk shorts to match with lacey edges. It was sexy, too sexy for comfort. He figured that must have been the reason why she was blushing "Hey," he said at the door, and she smiled, unable to speak. "I am heading to the hospital. Do you want to join me while we reach out to people
Ashley drove down the high road, worried about what would happen to her. Sebastien was a very dangerous man, and what he did to Whitewood and Ceenas showed the extent of his evil. She hoped she would be able to charm her way through and then expose his secret and his master. She knew Sebastien was in Ceenas, and that was where she was heading. There was no need to stop for food or accommodation. Her mission was very clear, but her safety wasn't certain. Ashley called her mother to find out how she was. Leaving her mother at the mercy of her father did not sit well with her, but Maya sounded alright on the phone, and Ashley promised she would stay in touch when she got to Ceenas. Although Maya was uneasy about her daughter's mission, she hoped for the best. After a long drive, Ashley finally arrived at Ceenas borders. She wasn't surprised to see that the place was heavily guarded. That is what happens when a pack is taken over, and the new owners want to ensure it remains theirs. So
Boris reported to Sebastien's office immediately, wondering what the issue was because Sebastien did not sound friendly. Sebastien was mad that he did not deem it necessary to tell him he had locked someone up. Boris also failed to inform Alpha Malcolm, who was around during the incident. No matter how insignificant the person was, Brois needed to inform him of what was happening in the pack while he was away. Usually, he would see his actions as mutiny, but because he did not call the shots and Boris answered to the Alpha, he had to rein his anger and handle the situation wisely. Boris entered Sebastien's office, staring at him until he averted his gaze to acknowledge who was superior."Why did you lock a woman up for three days unattended, and why did you not deem it necessary to tell me?" He asked, and Boris looked worried. He did not think Sebastien would care, but it seemed like the man cared. Sometimes it appeared Sebastien had a heart and only hid it away because of whom the
"You!" Ashley said, shocked that the man with the woody scent was Sebastien.Sebastien was too worried and ashamed to speak. He stood still and swallowed, clueless about what to say. It wasn't the reaction any wolf would hope to get from their mate. Under normal circumstances, she should wrap her arms around him, and he should accept and claim her as his. But there was nothing ordinary about their circumstances. He had attacked her fiance, stolen his pack and stabbed her in the process. The painful part was that it seemed like he had stabbed her to save Cynthia's life, but that wasn't what happened. He had stabbed her to save her life because if she wasn't down, she would have kept fighting, and those warriors had marked her. His only blunder was that he stabbed her with the knife on his right instead of the one on his left. His heart was in his mouth when he discovered he had done that. That was why he stopped reinforcement from coming and convinced Joseph to sign the documen
Amber's surgery was successful. Joseph was thrilled about it. Amber had finally woken up but no one told her what was happening. Levi remained by her side while she and Leah remained in the same room to recover. Amber was grateful to Leah. Unlike Joseph and Ethan, she remembered the girl and little did she know she would be her saviour. The McClouds put behind the sorrow and chose to put behind their issues as far as they could while their mother recovered. It had been forty-eight hours since the surgery, and the two ladies were still under supervision in the hospital.Meadow and Ethan were on watch, but Joseph had decided to remain with them. He was supposed to have started training the recruits, but he wanted to give it time. It wasn't every day that prayers got answered. The miracle that Leah brought into their lives was worth putting everything on hold for. He stood by Leah's bed and thanked her for everything she had done. Though Leah was asleep, his heart was genuinely grate
One week later, Ethan opted to take his wife to a quiet location where they could spend time shift, and he could discuss visiting Meadow's parents with her. He also made a mental note to ask his mother certain things about the Clearwaters once she is strong to speak. The way they behaved toward their daughter was abnormal. They should have somehow tried to reach out, especially after the takeover. He had expected them, especially Meadow's mother, to reach out.Ethan knew how negligent Meadow's parents were when she was little. His father had scolded Blake Clearwater several times for leaving his three-year-old daughter alone to roam the park at night, looking for a missing cat.Although the park was somehow close to their house and it was a walking distance, the girl had no business walking about the place at night at that age. Ethan recalled his father taking her home on many occasions, and there was a time he threatened to take the child from Blake. Somehow Ethan suspected it w
