Marco Lorenzo's POVLucas Durego…I knew he was a bastard, but I did not expect him to be so smart. He had tricked my men, he wasn’t at the location that we thought he would be in, before we got to his last known base, he had cleared out and left, abandoning the building and all his properties. It’s a good thing that I had asked my boys to first tap into the buildings security camera before we moved in, if we had all gone in together, we would have been killed in that building, I would have been dead right now if I was not smart enough and very observant. When we saw that the building was completely empty, I knew immediately that something wasn’t right. I sent two guys to go in first and check it out and I regretted my actions immediately when their footsteps triggered the bomb that was planted in the building. Lucas had planted a motion sensor bomb on the building before he left, he had known that we were coming and he had planted a bomb in the building, setting a trap for us. I los
Dominic’s POVFuck, that was amazing, so fucking amazing. She had handled herself so beautifully, taking all I have to give her without a single complaint, keeping up with my speed and stamina, matching my every action, satisfying all my desires. Damn, she had been so good, so fucking perfect. I had totally misjudged her, I had thought she is vulnerable, weak, and stupid, but I was wrong, so damn wrong. She is one principled woman, she is so principled and determined. Once she sets her mind to achieve something, she works so hard to get it done, no matter what it takes. And she is so strong, stronger than you could ever imagine, fit to be a queen, fit to command authority and power. I watched her in admiration as she drifted off to sleep, admiring her beautiful features. I can’t believe that the moon goddess would bless me with such a beautiful goddess, such an amazing woman.After cuddling her to sleep, I left her in bed and walked down to my office, I know I won’t let her sleep if I
Bethany’s POVI was woken up by the bright morning light that shone in through the curtain. I struggled to open my eyes despite the throbbing pain in my head. My whole body aches so badly and I feel sore, like every muscle in my body had been overworked.The first thing I noticed was the expensive things in this room, the painting on the wall, the expensive gadgets and Italian furniture, and the comfy, soft mattress that I was lying on. This is definitely not my room, it looks so different, so damn comfortable. I would have panicked and thrown a tantrum if I wasn’t held down by a pair of hot, muscular arms. I could feel my body being pressed against his, his face was so close that I could feel his hot breath fanning my face.Memories of my trip to king Dominic's palace and everything that happened to me since I got here down to last night came flooding back into my head, I remember our hot, passionate make-out session on the dance floor, and I also recall our heated moment in bed and
Graciela’s POVI have to act now before it is too late. I got another letter two days ago. I was walking down the street of New York, feeling the fresh air blowing on my face Three guards were following me closely, so I didn’t worry about anything. I wasn’t watching carefully and I bumped into someone on the street, or rather, she number into me because she hit me with so much force that I landed On the floor with my ass. She had apologized profusely and left in such a hurry that you would think that she was being chased by a very dangerous monster. We watched her hurry off, then the guards came over to help me off and that was when I noticed that I was holding something in my hand. I knew immediately that she had been sent to me, I knew instantly that she had bumped into me and somehow, she had managed to force that letter into my hand. Without being told, I knew that it was Lucas Dorego. He is the only one capable of pulling up such an act on me, he is the only one that can play su
Marco Lorenzo POVThe rain fell heavily, and the sounds of the heavy downpour could be heard on the roof of the warehouse, but the chilly weather did not stop that bastard Lucas Durego from accomplishing his mission. I’ve found him, I finally found him after all the long waiting. It had been so difficult, almost impossible even, but I did it, I found the hideout of that asshole. Drake had proven to be a tough guy, he had been a hard nut to crack, and so had his boys.I took my time to force out the information I needed from them. I started with his boys, I tied them both to an electric chair, promising to release the first person to give me the information I need, but they both refused to say anything, they just kept mute and stared at me like fucking morons. I just smirked evilly, I know they’ll definitely break and spill out everything they know, I just gave them some minutes to realize their stupidity, then I began work on them, torturing them one after the other, using every form
Still Marco Lorenzo's POVThe guys are moving fast, so fast that we struggled to keep up with their speed. They haven’t spotted us yet, they gave no idea that they are being followed, yet they are running as if they are trying to run away from something or someone. Something doesn’t seem right, there is something else going on here and I have no idea what it is. First, they had drugged and kidnapped a girl that I have no idea who she is, now they are driving at a very high speed, making it seem like they have a deadline to keep. This road looks familiar, it’s been so long that I’ve been out on the street but this road definitely looks familiar I’ve been here before, I’m so sure of it, I just can’t recall what I had come here to do.It’s getting late already, they have been driving for hours now and I wondered where they are headed. They keep going around in circles to check if they have someone on their tail, but we are too clever to be caught. I made sure we switched cars every thirt
Bethany’s POVI knew I should never have promised anything to Dominic. Gosh, he can be so sneaky, so clever, and tricky. He just tricked me into making that promise, he made me promise to trust him, and now he’s using it against me. How on earth does he expect me to hide the fact that we are now mated to each other, How am I supposed to get back at Bianca when she doesn’t know anything about us?“That’s not fair Dom, you did not hide it when you were screwing that bitch. For fucks sake, you even made me leave so you can have a good time with her. She bragged to everyone, rubbing it on my face, telling everyone that cares to listen that she had an affair with you. Now I finally got what is mine already, now it’s my turn to flaunt myself to the whole world and you stand here telling me to keep it a secret?Not a chance Dom, there is no way in hell that I’m agreeing to that. Except you want to tell me that you still have a thing for her, maybe you still want her or maybe you still want t
Still Bethany’s POVSometimes I feel like punching Alexia in the face. I swear if she wasn’t my wolf, I would have punched her in the face if she wasn’t my wolf. Where the hell did she get that stupid idea from, and why is she trying to make me feel guilty for no reason at all. Why the hell is she talking to me and when did she even establish a link with Scott, how did I not know that she has been communicating with Scott, how could she take side with them and abandon me this way?I blocked her out of my head because I’m too pissed to have a meaningful conversation with anyone, let alone a wolf that always takes side with that strong-headed, stubborn Alpha king and his wolf. She is such a partial, prejudiced wolf and I’m not talking to her. I’m not even talking to that big-headed Alpha king, all I want to do right now is to fill my stomach with food. I’m so drained, Dominic wore me out last night, not that I have any complaints because I enjoyed every moment of it, Gosh, I even want h
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
