Helena’s P.O.V.All eyes were fixed on Zayden’s face for a response, he was enjoying that attention as if we elected him the president of the USA. After two thousand years later, he cleared his throat,“Although I don’t believe in Liam, Helena’s request can’t be rejected. Alright. Beta Alex will come tomorrow and collect the samples. Or…”He turned towards Liam and raised his brows. “Or you would like to climb the wall of my mansion again, Liam?”That mean smirk toying on his lips instantly raised the temperature of the room. Liam was about to pounce at Zayden when I grabbed his arm to calm him. As a calculated and political person, Zayden was a devil, the master of finding weak points to use them in his favor. This DNA report matter was a true example of it. Liam hardly ignored Zayden’s provocation and sent them off, then he locked the door and fought with me.“Why were you siding with that Alpha, sister? He was clearly mocking me for my trip to jail. It was wrong th
Zayden’s P.O.V. After confirming his arrangements with Mr. Smith, Beta Alex was following him everywhere like a love-sick puppy. This gave me the best chance to keep an eye on Carver. Smith was literally a shadow of Carver. He was his driver, assistant, and watchman just like Alex and me. This helped me to track Carver’s current location when he arrived at Helena’s apartment. “Carver is visiting Helena?” And Liam was the one who opened the door for him. They behaved like long-lasting brothers to flex their brotherhood. It was still a mystery for me how these two annoying men found each other in this vast world. However, it was confirmed that they had ganged up against me. Liam must be praising that lycan day and night to push him into Helena’s life, this visit was simply an installment of this mission. When Alex informed me about taking the laboratory technician to Helena’s apartment for samples, the whole picture cleared before my eyes. “That bastard must have planned to influe
Helena’s P.O.V.The way Zayden bolted out of the house, slamming the door as he went was eye-opening, clearly hinting towards my doom.He had ordered me to spend that so-called wedding anniversary with him, dodging this bullet was now the real issue. “What will I say to my little angels when Zayden comes to pick us up? How will I face him again on this date after five years?”My mind was already a headquarter of several problems, playing this self-question-answer session to scare me more. At that moment, a firm hand was placed on my shoulder, forcing me out of the daze. “Why are you so hesitant to celebrate this day, love?”Carver’s curious voice registered his presence. I totally forgot about him because of my inner turmoil. “I think you should go out with your kids for some quality entertainment. Occasions like this are rare, you must enjoy it to the fullest.”I stared at him foolishly like he had given me a solution to prove string theory. “How could a businessman li
Zayden’s P.O.V.After spending my night drowning in alcohol, I reached Cameron Construction Company’s office, who was the legal owner of Helena’s society. That housing scheme was still in progress, as his boss was constructing the 5th floor for more apartments. So, purchasing that entire building wasn’t a tough task. I especially asked Beta Alex to keep an eye on Smith and Carver in case they own this company. But his timely report eased my heart. “Carver only owns a jewelry studio and last night, he attended a stripper’s party with his friends.There’s no chance of his involvement in this matter.”So, I knocked on the door of the office. It was in my subconscious that an old fogey would be waiting for me. However, Helena’s presence froze my guts there, sending my brain to overdrive. I just gawked at her for a length of time, a trace of admiration flashed in my heart to see her sitting on the boss’s chair. Perhaps, she asked a question repeatedly as I noticed her lips moving,
Zayden’s P.O.V.“You can buy anything with money!”This universal truth was proved terribly wrong in the morning, but I was adamant to improvise it. So, with the help of a property agent, I talked to Helena’s neighbors and showed them my bank statement. As expected, they all contested to grab this opportunity, some were even ready to sell their apartments.“Consider it as your own house, Mr. Ellsworth.”You must have guessed my master plan against Carver, please allow me to elaborate it further. As that lycan had purchased this building using his friends’ company, I couldn’t stop him from visiting Helena. So, instead of using physical violence, I got inspiration from his technique and rented an apartment across the hall. In this way, I would see Helena daily, and get multiple chances to impress her.A win-win for me!There were already so many misunderstandings in our relationship, I couldn’t bear her hatred for murdering Carver just because of jealousy.“Yes, it’s true tha
Helena’s P.O.V.The harmless trip of Ashton and Scarlett would open a new door of my difficulties, I had never imagined it in my dreams. They were so excited to visit the City Aquarium with their friends, that was why I signed their permission slips.But they came back with a crystal bowl containing an adorable goldfish, a special note was also attached to it. “Sometimes, a second chance can help you to discover wonders in a person. It can be a new sunrise for eternal glory.”Eternal glory for a four-year kid?Was their teacher kidding me?I called her to inquire about this inconvenience in disguise, she apologized sincerely.“I’m sorry, Helena. But this was a complimentary gift from the Aquarium management.They are working on an initiative of kids’ involvement with pets. It can be helpful in making them caring and responsible.”Well, I know this as a fact that my Ashton was a carefree kid, he could forget about this fish within two days.And my Scarlett, she only liked ca
Helena’s P.O.V.Zayden’s number?There was a nagging sensation in the pit of my stomach while unboxing that mobile phone, but Zayden’s number shining on the screen became a source of profound sense of despair. I was momentarily stunned, unable to think or react. My world spun around me as a realization hit me hard. “What the hell just happened to me?Zayden?What’s he up to now?”My heart pounded like a wild drum, every cell in my body screaming with terror. When did he meet Ashton?How did Zayden make him believe that he was his father?I had never ever shown my little angels any picture of their father or told them a name. Then how did Zayden win their trust?And the main question: did they blame me for separating them from their father?“No!”I shot up as my hand flew to muffle an involuntary scream. It was impossible!“They are my kids, only mine.” After the initial shock, my brain was creating worst-case scenarios to cease my thinking ability. I carefully put the cellphone
Carver’s P.O.V.“This party is lit, dude. Why didn’t you join us on the dance floor?”The loud music in the disco forced my friend, Ryder, to scream at the top of his lungs. He introduced me to his babe of the night and complained.“Your report was praised by the king himself. It’s the biggest achievement of your career so far. Then why are you sulking in the corner, Carver? We have arranged this party for you.”It looked like Ryder was seriously worried about me, as he didn’t move an inch and continued nagging. I emptied the glass and ignored that hyperactive lycan, looking for something stronger. But Ryder snatched the bottle of red wine from me, so I glared at him.“Sod off, Ryder. Let me drink!Why aren’t you playing with your plaything?”The almost naked beauty flicked her hair flirtatiously, a bit of my attention rejuvenated her mood. She bent over and whispered in my ear. “Call me Rose, gentleman. I would love an intense play. Come, join us!”Her other hand playe
