Nevertheless, the crew had gathered all the documents that they got their hands on. While Martha was thrilled, she found a mildewed old handbag with a black and gold bracelet.There was a dangling gold heart with Athalia's initials on it. Martha hid the bracelet on her person and proceeded to help the others.Soon, they returned to the mansion, where they discussed their findings. They all basically had the same bunch of theories. Even a few guards had chipped in, well aware of the situation.Then they packed everything as neatly as possible and taped the boxes up, readying them for their travels the next day.Soon Aubrianne and the crew woke up to another bright and sunny day. Monday was here, and suddenly Aubrianne was the happiest she'd been the entire week combined.The crew had gotten up, eaten breakfast, packed, and got ready. While the teams, Kirrah and Shawn, were heading to Ragnuff with Aubrianne, Jada would meet Ivan at the airport to hop on their flight to Bliss.At the air
Zayne stood beside Mekhi, who was using a walking crotch. Also, Rafael, Zachary- Zayne's father, just had to be there to meet his son's mate. It had been a while since he'd been to these fronts. But even though Zachary did not appreciate his Luna until it was too late, he knew just how important it was that an Alpha finds his faithful Luna and mate. And how big of a deal it was for said Alpha. Also amongst them were a few other warriors from Zayne's elite squad and a few of Aubrianne's father's men who had been there since last week. They were here to greet Aubrianne and the crew. On seeing his mate, Alpha Zayne lost all poise, and he automatically stepped toward the vehicle when the door flew open, and then when he saw Aubrianne, Zayne instantly started to move toward her. He had missed her like crazy. Aubrianne was all Zayne could think of when he was not consumed with work, and even during those tiresome days, she would pop up and bring him peace of mind. She would instantly
One of Zayne's men had followed them in from a reasonable distance and confirmed the apartment number. They got in after five failed attempts to get close to the apartment without tipping off Dr. Nathan or being noticed by anyone.They did not want one whiff of anything getting back to Nathan to spook him or arouse any suspicions.And that proved challenging because it was either someone going in or coming out of the apartment building or even the cleaner lurking in the hallway doing his job.How convenient, at this hour.The witch Alpha Zayne sent with them did a spell to mask their aura, giving them the essence of a human.But they had all their abilities.Finally, after thirty more minutes, they could sneak into the building and into Nathan's Apartment.The team came up on Dr. White and company unexpectedly in his living room, having a few drinks while he was rambling.They heard almost every word spilled from his nervous mumblings. In here, they could listen to him clearly, babbli
The forces might have doubled if they had been expecting Zayne. Zayne had taken the time to explain things to Mekhi. Zayne refused to have Mekhi beat himself up over this.Because Zayne knew within himself, it simply was not the case, and he needed Mekhi to get better and not wallow in what he saw as his failures.After more back and forth, Mekhi resigned to Zayne's estimate of events.Then an elated Zayne simply stared at Mekhi, his blue eyes twinkling, a broad smile on his face. Still, before he could say anything, Mekhi's eyebrows pinched, his eyes narrowed, and he instantly sat up, "Oh buddy," his tone curious, "tell me we got help."Mekhi assumed Zayne's smile was about his trip and hoped it yielded results. He knew they needed it now more than ever, and hearing that they had Alpha Theodore Thornton's backing would simply make his day.It would mean all was not lost. It would mean that this might actually be over soon.Zayne's expression was the same, except his smile grew wider,
Nevertheless, Zayne was thankful that his plans at that meeting he held with his team also yielded results for him.Even the higher-ups that Colonel De Four came through with concerning the critical players involved that were a part of the military.With the means to bug, they had started visiting each of them. Bugging their homes and person. Even the one that gave the order to visit Zayne's community.Some instances proved challenging as there was more security at the homes of some of these higher-ups. However, with Carlita's help, they made waves.They had even found out that Sheila had never shown up at the Buccoo Valley Memorial Hospital, but in the end, they had already found out that she was with Dr. Nathan White when he had an appointment with Aubrianne.Sunday passed quietly. The only activity was Mekhi insisting he meet with Mira to get the flash drive. Mekhi and Zayne had made the trip, and the USB yielded results just as suspected.And so the surveillance of the ins and out
Aubrianne looked at Zayne, flabbergasted, eyes wide, cheeks getting redder. 'Oh goodness, I could walk and greet his people. Don't tell me he plans to walk around with me like this.' She frantically thought, almost panicked.This is definitely not how Aubrianne imagined meeting Zayne's people. Plus, she wanted to properly acknowledge Mekhi and talk to him.Aubrianne leaned in and whispered, "Baby, please, I can walk." As soon as the words left her lips, she felt his hands tighten again.Zayne had missed Aubrianne with every fiber of his being; he had gone through sleepless nights. The little time they had together was cut too short.He'd longed to have her in his arms again, and now that she was there, he struggled to let her go.It was a battle, as both he and Aragorn felt the same. None could help the other; let go.Aubrianne gazed desperately into his beautiful blue eyes, wrapped her hands around his neck, and said, "Baby, please, let me talk to Mekhi and meet the others." she gest
"Guys," Alpha Zayne boomed, cheerful and proud, "Please allow me to introduce you all to my destined mate and Luna and your soon-to-be Luna...Aubrianne Ivanov. Aubrianne, this is everyone... here we have my father, Zachary...And Zayne made the rounds introducing all that were present.His eyes twinkled as he smiled from ear to ear, the air around him calm and relaxed as he moved from person to person.His father had held her hand and kissed the back of her palm, his eyes glittering with something as he gazed upon his son's mate, the wheels in his head turning only because of his son's mate's alluring aura.Aubrianne met a few of the men that fought by Zayne's side on these missions, and Aubrianne thanked them for having her mate's back. She believed that because he had them, he was alive today.And as such, she had the chance to meet him.Aubrianne felt a wave of emotion while thanking the men who, time and again, fought alongside her mate.She was grateful for the mere fact that he w
Zayne could not fathom how he’d found himself in this scenario again, with the only difference being that, this time, it would be more of a challenge because there were no risks involved.They are no longer concerned about Aubrianne’s magic and unbinding her powers.Now it was free reign, and Zayne was not even going to sugarcoat this... He was struggling with it. So much so that he was willing to give in and let the chips fall where they may. He was not even going to try and lie to himself.It is what it is.But as time passed, more and more, Zayne battled with his conscience, simply because he was actually thinking of saying to hell with it. And he could not believe he was willing to.He needed to do this the right way for his people, to do right by them, and here he was willing to look the other way.Zayne realized he truly needed to talk to his mate for his sanity.Meanwhile, Aubrianne was oblivious to her mate's battle as she was having one of her own. Goddess, she did not think
