Finally Seth can see who the bitch truly is, but not fully. He doesn't want to believe she would have something to do with Naomi's disappearance because he would be forced to take some decisions, and none woukd be pretty.
AubreyConnor got on his laptop, and I ignored the way his hands flew effortlessly on the keyboard keys and the way his brows furrowed in concentration.His pouted lips twitched and I had to fight the urge to massage his shoulders and feel the muscles tensing underneath. Why did he have to have such good genes and body? Why couldn't he be like Patrick the star instead?Why did I try over and over again to hate him, and just keep failing?His eyes flickered to me and he caught me staring. One, I could blush and look away, or two, I could own my stare, maybe turn it to a glare. I was a bitch, afterall.He gave a wink, pushing me straight into number one and I groaned inwardly. I'm supposed to be mad at him, not blushing because he set the butterflies in my belly free.He pressed the last keys and waited for the laptop to provide answers, his eyes trained on me as he waited. I looked everywhere bit him, and I heard him give a little chuckle as he turned his gaze to the laptop.His brows
Violet Those fools! Immediately they left the hall in the direction of Seth's room, I began to panic. They were bluffing. They had to be. There was no way they had video proof. I made sure they were no camera on my path. So surely they had to be bluffing. I ran into my room, atudfing the things I new I was going to need into a bag, then changed into a more acceptable outfit. That skank Aubrey, thinking she can speak to me any how. If Seth had opened his eyes and chosen me as his bride, all this wouldn't be happening. I would be queen, and people luke Aubrey wouldn't even smell the grass of the Royal House. But stupid Seth chose that rat instead. The poor slave everyone hated. He chose her and made her into something that became so valuable, he didn't see me the way he used to see me. Taking my things, I bolted out of my room, checking the halls to make sure I wasn't being followed. When I secured the perimeters, I headed to the warehouse, where my mother was making sure Naomi
AubreyThe look on Violet's face confirmed all our suspicions, and I smiled to myself as she froze. She knew this was game over.Did she really think her plan woukd work? Kidnap Naomi then take her place? That was the dumbest thing I have ever heard.We silently rushed to Seth's room, and Connor turned the door knob, opening the door and peering inside. A gasp left our lips as we were met with an empty room, and the only thing open was a drawer, which Connor stormed towards and peered into."Shit." He breathed and he shut the drawer with a slam.We watched him , confused at his reaction. "What's the problem, Connor ? Talk to us."Connor's eyes met mine briefly before meeting Xander's, and I saw the emotion behind his eyes. Fear. He was scared."Seth took his torture devices. I bet he's this close," he showed a little gap between his thumb and forefinger. "To going on a killing spree."My eyes widened in alarm. If he does that, he's going to end up worse than the last time.We had to
Seth The two guards in charge of the hall died too quickly before I was able to get the truth out of them and I was getting desperate. There was blood on my face, hands and tongue, but I didn't care. Someone had to pay for what happened. These people were in charge of making sure that the people in the hall were safe, including my mate. Their main priority. They had this come to them the minute my mate was kidnapped under their very noses. I pulled out my syringe of wolf's bane. "For the third time soldier," I tore and incision on his knee, getting a scream out of his lips. "How was my mate kidnapped in this very hall were you are supposed to protect?" He shook with fear and in pain as I brought the syringe closer to the wound, waiting for his reply. Was I a monster? Yes. We've been through this in the beginning. Keep up. A sweat broke on his forehead as I lowered the syringe. "I-I don't know! We didn't see anyone take your mate out!" "Wrong answer, Soldier." I snarled as I
SethViolet swallowed, holding up a syringe. "Your queen is in the abandoned underground warehouse."My head spun. That place was out of bounds. It was sealed shut and the key was with me. Which meant she stole it. My lips thinned in anger. "You have a lot of nerve, Violet."She shrugged. "You have to go for what you want, even though it may end up killing you."I smirked. "Glad to know you already know how this ends."She smirked back, catching me off guard. "I know how it ends, but do you?"She waved the syringe in the air, deepening my confusion.Connor sighed. "Don't you know when to stop playing games, Violet? Please surrender. " Connor sounded stressed and I knew how this situation may be taking a toll on him. His mother and sister were on the receiving end of the law he enforced. He had no idea what to do. But one thing was clear. He doesn't want them dead. I was sure Maxwell wouldn't want them dead either. So I had no idea what to do. But one thing was sure. They were going
Naomi"Wake up you stupid bitch!" Sheila roared in my face, and I woke up suddenly, the whole room spinning around while my head ached and my throat stung.My hands were free, and my back was placed against the wall. My hand flew to my becka ad I remembered how Violet snatched my necklace from my neck and fear filled me, but that wasn't the only thing I noticed.I wasn't feeling the immense pain I felt in the past few hours as that dangerous venom made its way to my bloodstream, and my wolf wasn't howling in pain anymore.My hand flew to my belly, making sure nothing was wrong.I wasn't dead, because if this was paradise, Sheila wouldn't be staring at me with a cautious look in her eyes."Did it work?" She asked, her eyes examining me, and I followed her gaze.I checked around to see what she may be referring to. "Did that work?"She rolled her eyes, facepalming. "The antidote, stupid. If it didn't work, you would be screaming the warehouse down by now. Thank Goddess that worked. That
Seth We stormed down to the warehouse and the smell that hit us as we arrived in front of the door was enough to turn my stomach. The key was with a guard, and he stepped forward to unlock the door and the minute the door opened wide, Sheila was in tears while Naomi sat silently, listening to her words. Lies I'm sure she's spewing. Wait… My eyes refocused on Naomi, and I saw she was perfectly okay, she just looked tired. "Naomi. " I breathed, and her eyes widened, just realising our presence. Her eyes softened ad they landed on me and took in my appearance. "Seth." She breathed out, and in long strides, I appeared in front of her. She was here. I didn't lose her. Taking her hand in mine, I immediately wrapped my arms around her, engulfing her in my embrace. I shook with her in my arms, my wolf howling happily while I fought back my rare tears, one that only came out when I was in situations like these. When I realise how close I was to losing her. To losing my child and to
Naomi "I'm so glad you're okay! I was so scared! We were so scared. Seth was losing it. We had to search for your phone everywhere! What sort of phone lock is that?" Aubrey and Hazel shot me questions as we embraced and my heart warmed at the affection that everyone had for me. To me I was barely gone two hours since I was unconscious all through, but for them it was a lot more than that. A lot more, and apparently, Seth had killed three guards because of me. That made me mad. I was supposed to protect, not cause my subjects to lose their lives. I had to have a conversation with him later. Smiling at my friends, they confided in me all the things Seth did in my absence, and I saw myself thanking goddess I met people who loved me this way. Xander pulled me in a big hug, "I'm so glad you are okay, little sis." His words pulled at my heart strings. Who knew the evil Xander who killed mama had such a good heart? Connor silently spoke with Seth and I watched them, feeling sorry for h
