***Bryan***Staying away from Scarlett was the hardest thing ever. I almost hugged her when it became glaring that she is truly Debby. But I had mixed emotions. Fate wasn't fair to me. The stronger the attraction I feel for Scarlett, the more I see reasons why we can't be together. My mixed reaction was the reason why I left the night she told me who she was. I didn't know how to react. Since the kiss at the hotel, I've been wanting to kiss her again. I never got another chance until now. I kissed her to answer her question. That kiss represents how much I wanted her and how I can't bring myself to kill her despite being the daughter of an enemy. How I feel about her hasn't changed one. It hurts that Scarlett is tied to the ugly side of my story. A girl who I taught to be an angel and a life saver turned out to be the daughter of a man I've dreamed of killing all my life. "Hey? Bryan." Max tapped me."Hey." I quickly said after regaining my thought. I looked up at him from where

***Bryan***Anna took me by surprise when she knelt down. "I don't believe everyone in your pack to be innocent." I whispered. "I didn't care about that when I began hunting them or you. Scarlett, don't think I never tried to kill you. I did. I was just this close." I point at a short distance in height between my index finger and middle finger. "I only didn't because there was a way I felt whenever I saw you."She looked at me, her eyes began to get wet from holding back tears. "I won't deny not feeling anything for you when you came to work for me. I think I was so unhappy in my marriage and sad that things were still bad for my pack that I saw you as a breath of fresh air once we met. I couldn't help but trust you. That was why when I was attacked on my way from the Port, you were the first that came to my heart and mind. I felt I could be safe with you."It's funny how Scarlett and I are telling ourselves how we felt when we first met each other."Get up. You have already gon

***Bryan***"I almost thought you weren't going to make it." Ingrid whined upon seeing me. I walked up to her "Sorry I'm late. I had something important to attend to.""It's okay. You're here now." She smiled. "Have you heard anything about Lois? I'm worried that Evans would hurt her." "We are doing all we can to get her back. Be rest assured she'll be back home soon."I try to calm her down. Lois and Ingrid were very close friends. Even though I had no idea how we were going to get Lois yet, I still had to appear like I had everything under control. "That's a relief." She sighed."Why did you call me telling me you wanted to see me?" I asked, staring at her from where she sat. Ingrid wasn't living with her parents, she wanted to live in the packhouse because she's got a lot of friends here. "Firstly, it's because I was worried about Lois. I wanted an update," She muttered. "Secondly, it's because I wanted to thank you." She rose from her seat and she moved to where I sat. "Oh… t

***Bryan***I unlocked the door to my new house. It was so quiet that one would think no one was living here yet. I headed straight to the master bedroom. I considered checking on Scarlett but I decided against it. I didn't want to wake herif she was still asleep. It was only four am. I had a shower and soon jumped into bed. It was indeed a stressful day. It's funny how I just got this place and furnished it up. I wanted to use it as a guest house of mine whenever I had something to do around the city. I never knew it would come handy just like now. The door to my room opened slowly. Scarlett peeked through the door. "You're back." Her voice is soft and sleepy. "I heard strange noises, so I wanted to confirm if you were back.""Yes,I'm back," I whispered, stretching my head to get a glimpse of her in the darkness."Ok. I would have asked you about Lois but you seem tired. Later then." She quickly closed the door. I jumped up from my bed and went after her. "Wait." She spun ar

***Bryan***"Where the hell have you been?" Max yelled. "And you didn't even return my calls." "Stop yelling. I was busy." I looked around the common room. It was like there was a small party going on. "What did you guys do without me?" "Curtis bought drinks because he got his baby back. It's a little celebration before we go after Evans and give him the shock of his life." My ears pointed upward. It was obvious a conclusion was made behind my back on what to do to Evans. "What are you guys planning on doing? I told you guys to let me handle it.""We all do not agree to that. Lois is one of us. He messed with the whole pack when he kidnapped her. And don’t forget he attacked some of our pack members too." "Does Alphy Westby know you guys are planning something?" "Just like you. He's telling us to hold on. Jensen on the other hand wants to teach Evans a lesson. We are still here because Alpha Westby is against us going to retaliate." "Max, you know more than snyone that I've go
