Still Bethany’s POVDamn, He’s good.He is so fucking smart, he got me exactly where he wants. He knows me like the back of his palm he knows how curious I can be, he knows I would not give up until I find out exactly why he had canceled our trip to the Alphas lodge. He know that is all I have in my mind, and he decided to use it as a bargaining chip. He knows I want to know, he knows I would kill fucking do anything to find out why he lied to me, he fucking knows it all. He is looking at me teasingly, a smug smile on his face, waiting for my response, waiting for me to beg him to tell me the truth or should I call his bluff to see if he is going to keep to his words and tell me the truth as he promised me, “You don’t want me to beg for it, do you?” I asked him teasingly“No my love, I don’t want you to beg for something this simple, I just want you to admit that you want to hear the truth from me and when you hear everything, you would still believe and trust in me.” He told me poi
Unknown POVKing Dominic, That Bastard!He is on to me, I know it. He must think that I’m really stupid, he thought wouldn’t see the hidden cameras that he had planted close to my secret cave. For fucks sake, how stupid does he think I am, he left some cameras at the entrance and even along the path that leads to my secret hideout. I’ve been coming to this cave for many years now, there is absolutely no way that I wouldn’t notice the little changes he made there. I saw his footprints all around my secret cave, I could also see his footprints at some strategic places, I knew immediately that he has planted some cameras there, I knew that he was trying to trap me. I could only laugh at his amateurish attempt to get me trapped. To think that he had nearly fooled me is so surprising, I mean, I had my suspicions that night when he didn’t come back to the castle for dinner. It was said that he had gone for an official business and his Beta made us wait for him to come, but he didn’t come o
Bethany’s POVI could hear my heart beating so loud and clear, it is beating so hard and fast and it was adding to my nervousness. I don’t know what we are going to meet when we arrive, I’m sure that they would be so shocked to know that I am still alive. They would have a lot of questions, I don’t know what I’m going to say or do when they start looking at me like a fucking traitor that betrayed her own family. Dominic had rehearsed with me a thousand times, telling me all I’m going to say, giving me every answer that I should give them, but I just don’t remember a thing he has said to me. I’m riding in the same car with Harriet, while Dominic and Carl rode in another car, coming behind us. He doesn’t want us to be seen together, he doesn’t want anyone to know that we are in a relationship, and he wants to try and use me to get information from my father. It’s all so complicated and it infuriates me to think that I actually agreed to go with his plan, I let him use me as a bait to ca
Still Bethany’s POVFear of the unknown…That is what I am feeling right now. My kid sister will be all grown up now, my mom, I miss her so much, so damn much. Would they believe me if I tell them that I just got back, will they love me like they used to, will my mom hug me and welcome me back home. And my father, how do I look him in the eye and lie to him, what will I do if he turns out to be a mole, will be able to turn him in, will I be able to watch him get taken away by Dominic's men, will I let him get locked up, will I be strong enough to face all these things?“You can stay in the car if you want to but I’ll strongly advise against it, we don’t want him to think that you have changed, we don’t want him to suspect that there is something wrong with you. I need you to snap out of this reverie and bring your A-game. We don’t know what he is capable of, we still don’t know if he is the mole we are searching for. Trust me, if your father is a mole, he wouldn’t think twice about tu
Graciela's POVI was glad when he showed up at the warehouse, I actually thought that he is my savior, If only if known that he will turn out to be my worst nightmare. I would have been better off dead than to be stuck with him, how did I end up being in a relationship with the Mafia Lord, why am I so unlucky?King Dominic had been trying to reach me, but he refused to let me take his calls. When I finally got tired of his overbearing attitude, I picked up the call, ignoring his glaring look. He did not let me say anything to king Dominic, he snatched the phone from my hand and they both got into a fight, exchanging words with each other, speaking so rudely to each other. I don’t know the issue between them, but whatever it is, it’s really bad, I mean, so bad. He basically told the king to fuck off and he didn’t minx words when he told him that he doesn’t care if he is the king or not, but he won’t release his hostages. I wanted to take do what I know best, I wanted to just get high a
Lorenzo’s POV“What do you want with me, why did you bring me here?” she asked me calmly, sounding so sad and exhausted. The truth is, I don’t even know the answer to this question myself, why the hell had I brought her here. That wasn’t the plan, the plan was to put an end to this war first, then I can go in search of her, I never expected to find her in that warehouse, but now that I’ve found her, I certainly not letting her out of my sight again, never again. Besides, I can’t deny the attraction between us, although I try to deny it, I try to tell myself that I’m trying to punish her for having dealings with Lucas Durego, but deep down in my heart, I know that I’m just trying to keep her by my side, I can’t bear to lose her again. Besides, I need to help her get clean, I can’t let her continue this way, it could drive her insane or kill her if she doesn’t stop now. She is already an addict and it’s all my fault. I started this all, and I’m going to put an end to it. But I can’t tel
Dominic’s POV Is it weird that I want to drag Bethany out of this house and keep her far away from her own father?Yeah, I know I’m being paranoid. Don’t blame me, I have so much on my plate right now, I can’t bear it if something happens to her, I’ll just break down. Everything is just happening so fast and it’s so overwhelming. My boys are still being held by Lorenzo and he is bent on keeping them there until he gets them to talk. I really don’t blame him for being so careful, if you’ve been through hell like him, you would be forced to play smart in everything. I know he’ll come around, I just have to give it a little time, besides, I now have Graciela in there. There is no way she would turn her back on me, at some point, she would be forced to help out and speak up for the boys that had kept her safe when she first got back to the city. Even if she doesn’t want to help me, I’m sure she would come around when Bethany talks to her, or better yet, I can have Dwayne talk to her sist
Bethany’s POV“Follow me.” My father ordered me through our mind link. Gosh, It’s been so long since I’ve used this link, I can’t believe that I actually thought that my family was dead, how could I have been so stupid, why didn’t I feel our bond. And Alexia, I’m sure she must have known, I’m sure she must have felt it, why did she hide this from me, how could she do this to me. I lived away from my family for more than five years and now they look like total strangers to me. My mom wouldn’t stop looking at me as if I were an alien or a weird creature that just jumped down from the sky or something. I was talking to my kid sister, I missed her so much. Apart from the fact that she has grown up a bit, she is still the same inquisitive little girl that wouldn’t stop asking me questions. My father had stopped our little chit-chat when he mind-linked me and asked me to follow him. I thought he had only mind-linked me, but when my mom and kid sister stood up as well, I realized that he had
Still Bethany’s POV“Come on, Beth. Get your pretty ass out of that bathtub. Lorenzo has been gone for almost two weeks and he is becoming more grumpy by the minute. Trust me, you don’t want to keep him away from his women much longer, I would hate to see him turn into a grumpy old man.” Dominic let out jokingly, causing me to chuckle softly. He took a few steps forward and grabbed a towel, holding it out for me. I gladly went into his arms, letting him wrap the towels around my dripping wet body. He moved the towel on my body in a sensuous manner, giving me goosebumps all over my body. It’s been more than one week since we had a heart-to-heart discussion. It was right here in this very room, right before we went to celebrate our victory with the new Lycan king. Although I didn’t mean to question his motives and ask him if we are back together again, but I’m glad that I did because the outcome of that little talk we had was so heartwarming and beautiful. If I had not voiced out my fea
Bethany’s POVI killed my father…Everyone keeps trying to convince me that I had no choice. They believe that I did it out of self-defense. Let’s face the facts, if I had not done it, he would have probably killed me. He would have stabbed me with that blade and he would never have flinched when he did it. But that wasn’t why I killed him, I mean, I could have knocked him out and let the warriors deal with him the same way they dealt with all the other traitors that refused to fall in line. I could see the warriors around, Carl was there, as well as Harriet and Dwayne, I could have elbowed him hard and slipped out of his hold so they can deal with him and have him locked up, I could have let him live if I wanted to,But I didn’t… Nah, I used all the skills I learned from the big city while I was still planning to kill king Dominic. I never had a chance to kill Dom, I wouldn’t have done it even if I had the chance, I love him too much for that. I did attack him severally, but I didn’
Dominic’s POVI passed out a few seconds after Declan’s announcement, I was just too weak to join in the celebration. I was occupied with everything happening around me that I forgot about the wolfsbane that is circulating through my body. I was trying to stand up to my feet and address my people, but I slumped to the floor, and I felt myself drifting into nothingness as I passed out. “Wake up, Dom. We are not going to let you sleep through our victory celebration.”“Wake up, my king, we won. You hear me, we fucking won.”“That’s right my king. The tyrant is down, we killed the bastard.” “We are waiting for your instructions my king, you need to wake up and lead us to greatness. We need you, my king. We need you now more than ever.” I was hearing the cheers and encouragement from my generals, they sound gleeful, too excited if you ask me. I can hear their voices, I really want to be a part of this celebration, it’s all I’ve ever wanted, it’s all I’ve ever dreamed of. I’ve been figh
Dominic’s POV“I asked for a fair fight, Ash. Is this your definition of a fair fight?” I asked sarcastically when king Ashfords generals dragged me out of the dungeon and threw me into the ring that was at the center of the crowd. I don’t know how they managed to do all this in just a short while, but they did it and it looks quite good. There was a large space in the middle for king Ashford and I to fight freely. His warriors stood around the ring, ready to strike me down if the combat is in my favor. But that is not the only reason why I’m being sarcastic with him. I’m being this way because I can see that king Ashford is still scared of me, he is trying so hard to make it difficult for me to defeat him. His body armor is more sophisticated than the ones his warriors are wearing and he is packing a lot of sharp blades on his sides, he isn’t even trying to hide the fact that this combat is rigged in his favor. He smirks at me as I approach his location with my hands handcuffed in fr
Dominic’s POV“Are you fucking insane?How can you challenge him to a duel when you know you cannot kill him no matter what you do. I knew you had a death wish, but you didn’t have to drag us down with you did you?” Lorenzo yelled at me in anger when I got thrown into my cell. “You should be thankful to me for offering myself to be beaten by that bastard. If I didn’t do that, he would have tortured you until you give him exactly what he wants. I know king Ashford, he would have kept to his promise and he would keep cutting out different parts from your body until you finally break and give him the codes, and after he gets what he wants from you, he will kill you, he will fucking kill you.” I responded in the same angry tone that he had used on me. Don’t blame me for being mad at him, I mean, I just did him a huge favor, the least he can do is to appreciate my effort. I just saw my mate kissing my sworn enemy as if her life depended on it. She told me I don’t stand a chance against hi
Bethany’s POVHe is torturing me by withholding my pleasure. I think he likes toying with me and making me beg him for his attention. I’ve begged for it, I practically grovel at his feet and beg like a fucking whore that can’t keep her legs shut. If I didn’t know better, I’ll say that I’m high on some kind of drug, I just couldn’t keep it together, and I can't think straight. All I want is to have his dick buried within my pussy. When he walked in through that door, I thought he had finally come to put me out of my misery by screwing me senseless. But that’s not why he came, Nah, he had his own agenda, he always does.“I missed you, my king. I’ve been waiting patiently for you, just as you instructed,” I let out seductively, walking up to him, putting my arms around his shoulder, and leaning up for a kiss. But he turned away from me, dodging my kiss.“I think you are lying to me, Bethany. You claim you love me, but that is only a lie. I can see it in your eyes, I can tell that you mis
Still Dominic’s POV“Ashf… Ash… Please man, I’m begging you right now, please end this madness. I’ll take my own life, just give me a sword or a knife and I’ll fucking end my life, but pleas to this. You can’t do this I beg you.” I pleaded with him pathetically. This time, I wasn’t kidding around, I really meant it. I would rather die than to sit here like a fucking weakling and watch what is about to happen, or what I think is about to happen at least. I can never let this happen, it would ruin me and Bethany would never forgive me for this.“No, my friend. I won’t kill you yet, and I certainly won’t let you take your own life. It would only make you a martyr and that would give more people the motivation to go against me. On the other hand, it would give me great joy to break you and show everyone that you are a pansy and a coward. You are wimp Dom, and soon enough, everyone is going to see you for who you really are. A fraud.” He responded smugly, fixing his eyes on Bethany, ogli
Still Dominic’s POV“You are scared, aren’t you?You don’t want your warriors to see how weak you are. Let’s settle this on the battlefield as the ancient kings did. I’m fucking sick and tired of watching you hide behind your potions and black magic. You can never defeat me in combat, you are so fucking weak and pathetic. I’ve called you out to war, I’ve tried to get you to face me like a man, but you send your warriors to die in your stead, and you hide like a bitch, playing stupid mind games with me. This ends today, Ash. This fucking ends now. It started with you and me, and it’s going to end with you and me as well. Fight me, Ash, I dare you. I fucking dare you! I yelled at him, earning a scoff. I know I am straying from our plans, but it’s either this or he kills Lorenzo right here in my presence.I have put a lot of people at risk by bringing Lorenzo here. Lorenzo is the Mafia Lord and he controls this city. He is feared and respected in the underground, he controls many legal a
Still Dominic’s POVAt the order of the king, we were roughly thrown into the dungeon by his lycan warriors and the gates were shut firmly. The dungeon is just as I remembered, we were thrown into different cells on the same block. The guards searched us for hidden weapons or anything that we could use and try to escape, but they couldn’t find anything with us because we weren’t packing any. I let them him and my generals as they please, I felt the urge to punch their faces so hard that they lose a few teeth. But I curbed my anger and let them get away with it, I need them to believe that I have given up on this war. Their ego will be fed and they will celebrate their victory, they will think that they have finally won this war. They will be too busy celebrating their victory, they won’t see what is coming for them.Declan had told us to lay low for a while because it would take a couple of hours for his trusted warriors to get to us. His father is a paranoid bastard, he may look as i
