NICOLETTE'S POV Hearing the advice from everyone around me had really got me thinking. Perhaps it was time I buckled up my seat belt and fought for what I actually wanted. In these few days, I had been heartbroken and even attempted suicide for a man I never thought I would dare to fuss about. One thing had become clear to me and it was the fact that in our marriage of convenience timing, I probably had actually taken to falling in love with Xander.Oh my goodness!!! I sincerely hoped I had not said that out loud though. Not with Allen close to me as we watched the sun go down together.To think that it would only have taken a setting sun for me to be sure of my feelings for my husband was really funny as I stood there. "We should get back now." Allen said to me."We certainly should." I said to him,I was still staring at the sky now void of the sun as I felt the reluctance to leave this place. It felt like I had found inner peace with the sun and that peace was something I did

NICOLETTE'S POVI woke up that morning feeling like hell. I was half way naked on just my panties but was securely covered with the duvet. As I sat up, my head hurt just a little as I tried to wrap my head around what had happened and how it was that I was in Xander's bedroom. Something was not adding up seriously. Begging the question was his lack of presence in the bedroom also and then in a haze, I recalled that I had seen him but could not pinpoint what had actually happened.I felt confusion sweeping through me as the things I remembered were not adding up to being in his bedroom. I had been in my room drinking, so how was it that I could be in this space. Wait a minute, had I done something stupid? I mean, I should have since I was naked and in my panties right now. I slapped my cheeks hard in vain hope that I would remember something, anything at all but no. Being a werewolf when drunk was not something really fun as it sometimes leads to absolute blackout. I was still there se

ZIBELLE'S POV I had to make a choice clearly. Laurel was putting the choice before me and it was either to roll with her or lose everything I had worked for all these years. I had spent time staring at my work and even though I tried hard to push aside the thought of her to the back of my mind, it was seemingly impossible as I just could not. Knowing Laurel, I knew that if I do not comply with her demands whatsoever, it would mean trouble for me and my life. She could make everything go away with a puff. At this point, anyone could think of me as being selfish because no one was in my shoes right now. I might choose to defend my friend but then, when she hears this horrid story of my past, when the entire world would turn their backs on me, would she be there to stand by me? Would she at least give me the benefit of a doubt and the chance to prove my innocence because sure as hell, I was not totally at fault for what had happened with bloody Sophia but I did play a role alongsid

ZIBELLE'S POV As I drove home now, I recounted what had transpired between Laurel and I. The fear in my eyes when she had held me over the edge like she was actually going to toss me over. I had never been more scared for my life as I had been a few minutes ago. She had a preposition for me on what I was to do for her and she promised me something greater in return. She was going to write me a signed confession stating she had orchestrated Sophie's death all by herself without external assistance. She would give me the confession that she would sign with her name and her blood just to make it as solemn as possible. The offer was too great to reject. I mean, she was actually promising to let me live my life for once without her interference and I could not have wished for anything more. All she sought was for a smaller price and that was to assist her ruin Nicolette's marriage with Xander. She began pointing out to me for the sake of my conscience on how Xander did not love Ni

XANDERS POV The day had been so hectic and all I craved for was a little rest for myself. I had to meet up with the members of the First which were our council elders as regards my suspicions over Maxwell and his minions. It had become clear that he was pulling the string somewhere from behind and I needed to detach it. I had a couple of conversations with Ethan and he reassured me that for my sake, he would return to the town just to assist with the whole process of figuring out what they were up to. The members of the council had been of the opinion that we do not declare war yet as we would be monitoring them and setting our traps ahead of time. After the meeting, Allen, who had to be present alongside the Gamma, met up with me. We had to talk about how we would be handling things this time. As we did, I found that my mind was restless over my best friend. To put it straight, I was suspicious of him and what his motives were. I found myself wondering if he would want to take
