~Tamia~ I was afraid of the outcome of the confrontation. How can everything switch suddenly? The woman claimed I threatened her; I did not remember doing that. I just warned her that Dominic shouldn't be in my bad books. From the look in Sylvester's eyes, I knew I had overstepped, and I was wo

"I would have lost the seat today. If they could prove that I committed those crimes, the Volkov family would no longer be in charge. Are his feelings worth all that?" He asked her, and she began to weep and went to her knees. "You know he didn't do this. He is not smart enough to pull something li

I wished he would sink his teeth into my flesh at that moment and claim me. I wanted to be his forever and prove Stephanie was wrong. He did not just have them, he had me, too, and the children we would have in future... He had my love, heart and my life, and I know it was enough, just as he was e

~Tamia~ Avery and Linda arrived in my room a few minutes after they had linked me. They sat on the couch while I dressed up in Sylvester's clothes. What happened with his mother baffled me, and I was nervous about what to expect from the woman. The switch was disturbing, and somehow I knew it wo

~Tamia~ Morning came, and Sylvester and I got ready for breakfast. It was going to be a busy day, but I was not feeling up to it. I was a bit tired even though we didn't do anything and I had just woken up from sleep. I did not think much of it and just got ready quietly. Once we were done gett

"Why would Bryce lie against you?" Sylvester asked, and Dominic looked at me. "She wants to be rid of me. Can't you see what she is doing? Mother told me how you treated her and insulted her because of this woman. Did it ever occur to you that she and her so-called ex might be trying to divide the

He shook his head immediately. "I can't let you go to Brighton. That journey is for Theodore and Vino to make," he said, and I shook my head. "You need to be tactful with these things. Brighton hates the north, and they see you as a menace; the last thing you need is to send northern elites there.

~Devin~ I was sitting in my office when my beta, Lukman, walked into my office to announce Alpha Jake Brighton's arrival. I thought my business with his pack was over. What was he doing in my pack? I did not want to seem rude, but I wasn't in the mood for a guest. "Let him in," I told my beta. Al
