75 At The Hospital
Karima Sa'ad UsmanSorry for the delay. I have been adviced to discontinue this book because it failed, but I am writing it on my own time, hence the delay. I promise to finish it this month. I have stated to whom it may concern that I won't release a new book until this one is concluded. Please bear with me. We are getting to the end of the book. PS I just returned from my polling Unit, and I am tired.

Sebastien remained in his room all morning after talking with Ashley. Realising how far he had to go for his mission haunted him and his wolf. It was indeed a heavy burden on him. A responsibility he was willing to carry without getting his heart involved. Now his heart was involved. Stabbing Ashley at that moment seemed like the right thing to do. He knew she would never forgive him for it. He later left his room in the afternoon to attend to pack matters. He tried to look as if nothing bothered him, but Malcolm noticed because of the puffiness around his eyes. They went to the Alpha's office, and Malcolm checked the mini fridge for booze. "Didn't sleep?" Malcolm asked, and he nodded, collecting a bottle of beer from Malcolm. Although it was too early to be drinking, the situation warranted it. They were both stuck. "Couldn't," Sebastien confessed, and Malcolm sighed. "This whole thing is a charade," Malcolm said, thinking the situation with the unknown Alpha was giving Seba
Underwater 77 Taking It
Ashley reluctantly went to join Sebastien. The pack members looked at her as she walked past them. The lady sitting beside Sebastien at the head of the table got up immediately to create a place for Ashley to sit. The woman was from the River pack and wanted Sebastien to herself. Cynthia had been her only problem, but since Cynthia was out of the way, Klara was hoping Sebastien would look her way, but how could he when he knew he had a fated somewhere? Had Sebastien not asked Klara to get up, she would have remained seated. She was territorial about him even though she had no reason to be. Sebastien had never looked at her. A place was created for Klara on the side of the table next to Ashley's seat. Sebastien maintained a calm exterior and had Ashley sit beside him. "Please enjoy yourself tonight," he said gently. Ashley was busy battling their bond while he welcomed the tug of their bond. Sebastien served her meals and ensured she had everything she needed. He was also gen
Underwater 78 Intentions
Seeing they were fully mated and belonged to each other, Sebastien decided to open up to Ashley about his mission. He felt he could trust her, and they belonged together now. He did not want to carry the burden alone, nor did he want secrets between them. He gently stroked Ashley's head on his chest and kissed her head. He would have waited for her if he had known someone special was waiting for him. It was painful when he found out she belonged to Joseph. He felt it was Karma for allowing Cynthia to use him to hurt Ethan by leaving Ethan for him, but honestly, he never intended it that way. Cynthia had lied about everything. Now he had someone that was genuinely his. He promised to make sure he survived for her sake and to be the best man he could be for her. He promised he would be blind to her flaws and forgive her faults. Love and cherish her and never lead her astray. He would never cheat on her or look at another woman again. He was in this a hundred per cent. "I want
Underwater 79 Eavesdropping
Joseph returned to Victoria's room after Maya had left the hospital. She was awake and was healing by then. He looked at her and smiled. She returned his smile and tried to sit up. "You scared me back there," he said, breaking the ice between them, and she giggled. "I couldn't let you get all the fun. Besides, now you know how ready we are for battle," she said, and Joseph's smile dropped. He moved close to her and sat by her bedside. The proximity was much, but Victoria controlled herself. "Don't do that again, Vikky," he said on a serious note, and she nodded. "It was a decision I had to make, Alpha," She said, and he sighed. He wondered why she was formal. He remembered how rigid and reluctant she was at the warehouse and somehow realised she had been avoiding him all this while. He wanted to bring it up but did not know if this would be the right time. "It is best you call me by my name, Vikky. You have earned it," he said with a smile, and she nodded. He reached for her ha
Underwater 80 All Said And Much More
Joseph led Victoria to his bed, still kissing and owning her lips. Victoria was afraid that it was a spur-of-the-moment thing, but she would take anything to satisfy her need for him at that moment. She knew if it was fleeting, she would burn badly, but it would be worth it. He gently led her to the bed and laid her down; she let him. Joseph broke off the kiss to stare into her eyes. He could see her heart there, something he never saw in Ashley's eyes. The pure love that wasn't selfish or demanding. He could see it, and he hoped she could see the surrender in his eyes. As much as he wanted to hold out and wait and see, what happened at the warehouse let him know all they had was the moment; he did not plan to waste it. "There is no one else, Vicky. I do not feel anything for Leah but gratitude," he confessed, tears streaming down her cheeks. She had suffered for almost two months thinking and believing otherwise. "It had been you for a while now, but I wanted the troubles over
Underwater 81 In The Meantime
The drive to Ceenas was long and boring for Joseph. He was eager to get back home. He felt he should have asked Victoria to come with him, but he did not know how the place would be. He did not want her to be in a situation where they would have to fight and defend themselves. Adam stared at him for most of it, studying his friend's mood and countenance. "What's with you and Vicky?" he finally asked, and Joseph looked at him. Adam kept his eyes trained on the road while Joseph sat in the passenger seat. They did not go with anyone, so they would not intimidate their hosts. Joseph wanted to be safe because he knew Sebastien was there and did not know what to expect from the guy. "What's with Vicky?" Joseph asked Adam, and Adam chuckled. "We are friends, you know. You can tell me. I trained her for a bit, so I know her scent, and you reek of her," he said, and Rex growled before Joseph could even control his wolf. Training her and knowing her scent meant touching her and being too
Underwater 82 Joseph In Ceenas
Joseph and Adam finally arrived at Ceenas. New faces were at the gate, and Joseph did not need to guess why. Luckily they had called Malcolm before coming, so he knew they would not have any issues. Malcolm had also informed Sebastien of Joseph's visit, so Sebastien had sent Boris and his men on an errand so they would not know Joseph was coming. The people at the gate were Sebastien's men that came with him from his pack. They could be trusted. One of the guards walked to the truck to inspect the people inside. He had a grim expression and did not seem like the type to smile much. He stared at Adam briefly and then nodded for the others to open the gate. They did so diligently, and Adam drove into the settlement. Nothing had changed compared to the last time Joseph and Ethan had visited, but the pack was fuller. It was expected since Sebastien had taken over. The people that left the River pack with him would naturally settle in Ceenas. Joseph wondered if Malcolm was content livin
Underwater 83 Let's Talk
Sebastien and Joseph were at a face-off, each growling at the other. "You aren't taking her anywhere she doesn't want to go," Sebastien warned Joseph, and Joseph growled back. Joseph did not miss the possessive fire in Sebastien's eyes, and he was conflicted as to why the Alpha would deem Ashley important. He brushed it off, believing Sebastien might have believed he was hurting him just like he had hurt Ethan by taking Cynthia from him. He wondered why Sebastien wanted their women, and he had a peculiar taste, too, because Ashley wasn't a saint, but unlike Cynthia, she was remorseful. "And who will stop me? She is coming home. Her mother asked me to bring her home," He said, and Klein went crazy. Sebastien was fighting a shift. Malcolm and Adam were nearby, unaware that a fight was about to break out. "You aren't taking her with you, Joseph. She is mine!" Sebastien said, and the force in his words surprised Joseph, but being a stronger alpha, Joseph stood his ground. "Stop me,
