RAINI LAVERNE As we sat at the table, I couldn't help but feel a sense of contentment wash over me. The meal was finally being enjoyed by River and Zavier and everything felt perfect."So Caleb, have we met before? You look familiar," I asked, trying to break the ice.Caleb smiled politely, "I don't think so, Raini. I'm pretty sure this is the first time we've met."I chuckled, "Well, maybe I've seen you around in River's photos or something. She tends to talk about you a lot."Caleb blushed slightly, "Oh, really? What does she say?"River chimed in, "Nothing but good things, Caleb. Don't worry."Zavier added, "Raini actually cooked this meal herself, with a little help from Karla of course."I blushed at the compliment, "Zavier is too kind. It was a team effort."Caleb took a bite of the food and his eyes widened, "This is amazing, Raini. You're quite the cook."I beamed with pride, "Thank you, Caleb. I'm glad you like it."River teased, "Raini can cook better than this, actually. S

ZAVIER CROSS I was sitting in my office, trying to focus on work, but my mind kept wandering to Raini. I hated that I couldn't allow myself to be with her, but I knew it was for her own safety. The last thing I wanted was to bring her into the dangerous world of the supernatural. Just then, Damon barged into my office, interrupting my thoughts. "Zavier, I've got news about the Rogue wolf," he said, looking serious. I sat up straight in my chair, instantly intrigued. "What happened?" Damon leaned against the wall, crossing his arms. "I followed him to an abandoned warehouse, but then a group of wolves ambushed him and killed him. They were trying to silence him so he wouldn't reveal who sent him." I let out a frustrated sigh. "Dammit. We're back to square one." Damon nodded in agreement. "Yeah, but at least we know there are other wolves involved. We just need to keep digging." I rubbed my temples, feeling the weight of the situation. "I know. It's just frustrating. I need to fi

RIVER LAVERNE If I could ever be grateful for something I would be for how yesterday went, I had overthought all the possible outcomes and I am more than grateful non of them happen, else there may or may bit be a tsunami coming. I was sitting at home, feeling content with how the evening went. My sister Raini and Caleb seemed to hit it off well, and I couldn't help but feel happy for them. But just as I was settling in for the night, I received a message from Raini asking if we could meet up. Instantly, my heart sank a little. Had something gone wrong with the dinner? Did Caleb do or say something to upset her?I shook my head, trying to rid myself of those negative thoughts. Maybe Raini just wanted to catch up, or talk about something else entirely. I quickly got ready and headed to the café where we agreed to meet.I tried not to overthink it and got ready to meet her at the café. As I walked over, I tried to push those negative thoughts out of my head. I knew that Raini had alwa

DAMON POVIt's crazy that I have such a feeling and I can't seem to Phantom what is going on with me.I woke up feeling so uneasy this morning. I couldn't shake off this feeling that something wasn't right. I got dressed and headed to work, hoping that the feeling would go away. But as soon as I stepped into the office, I knew that something was definitely off.I went straight to Karla's kitchen. Karla and I had a history; we had dated in the past but it didn't work out for us. We decided to remain friends and it worked out fine. But right now, I needed to talk to someone and Karla was the only one I could trust."Hey, Karla," I said, walking into her office."Hey, Damon," she said, looking up from her computer. "What's up?""I don't know," I said, pacing around her office. "I woke up feeling really uneasy this morning. Something just seems off.""Off? How do you mean?" she asked, arching her eyebrows."I don't know," I said, feeling frustrated. "It's like something bad is going to ha

ZAVIER CROSSI walked into the boardroom, my eyes immediately drawn to Giselle who was dressed in a stunning red dress that hugged her curves in all the right places. It was definitely not the kind of attire I expected for a business meeting, but I couldn't deny that it was alluring.Giselle approached me with a kiss on the cheek, her lips lingering a little too long for my liking. I tried to ignore the flutter in my chest and kept my composure as we took our seats at the opposite end of the long conference table.We started talking about the possibility of a partnership, Giselle wanting a merger while I preferred a collaboration. We went back and forth with negotiations, throwing business terms around like they were second nature to us.I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease throughout the entire meeting. Something about Giselle's demeanor and the way she was flirting with me seemed off. Was this really just about business?As we began discussing the partnership, I couldn't help

RAINI LAVERNEDo we actually have alter egos, if so River would be mine and Liam would be Damon's I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Damon standing in the hallway of my home. Memories of the picture my sister sent me rushed back into my mind, and I was sure it was him. But then he told me his name was Liam, and my mind was thrown into confusion."Hi, Raini," he said, giving me a warm smile."Hi, Damon," I replied, trying to hide my suspicion."It's Liam, actually," he corrected me, still smiling.I raised an eyebrow. "Liam?""Yeah, that's my name," he said, still with that smile.I couldn't shake the feeling that I knew him from somewhere, and I couldn't let it go. "Are you sure? You look so familiar to me."He laughed lightly. "I get that a lot, but I promise you, my name is Liam."I nodded slowly, still not convinced. "Okay then. Is there something you need from me?"Damon--or Liam--shook his head. "No, not really. I was just passing by and thought I'd say hi."I tried to relax

RAINI LAVERNE Things with River could have gone a lot worst but I am glad it didn't. I pulled into Zavier's driveway and turned off the engine, feeling a sense of excitement and anticipation building within me. But just as I was about to step out of my car, my phone buzzed with a message from River. Curiosity piqued, I opened the link she had sent me and was shocked to see a blog post featuring Zavier and Giselle.“What the fuck,”Fury coursed through me as I read through the scandalous details. How could Zavier do this to me? Was Giselle really just another one of his conquests? A million questions raced through my mind, and I couldn't shake off the feeling of betrayal.Just as I was about to call River to vent my frustrations, my phone rang and her name flashed across the screen. I answered the call and she immediately asked me what I thought about the blog post."I don't know what to think," I replied, my voice laced with anger. "Zavier has a lot of explaining to do. How could he

ZAVIER CROSSWhy the hell is she not back!!!I can't shake off this feeling of unease that has been gnawing at me since Raini left this morning. I tried calling her several times, but her phone just keeps going to voicemail. Maybe she's just busy, or maybe she's still mad at me for what happened with Giselle. But how could she believe those lies? I thought she knew me better than that.I can't believe this is happening. After everything we've been through, how could she even think that I would cheat on her with Giselle? I mean, I admit that I used to have feelings for Giselle, but that was a long time ago. Raini knows that. She knows how much she means to me. Why would she even consider that I would betray her like that?And now, all these notifications on my social media. People tagging me in posts, spreading rumors that I'm with Giselle. I've never felt so helpless. I know I shouldn't care about what people think, but it's hard not to when it affects the person you love.I'm so worr
