Chapter Twenty - New Angle
Balor's POV
There is something about spending a few days away from the city that really opens your eyes, makes you appreciate the quiet and the slow-moving you get in the country. But, of course, it also doesn't hurt to come home to a captured rat and the possibility of spilling some blood to really add some pep to my step.
I walked down the musty hallway with a smile on my lips as I prepared for what was to come. All the stress that had built up over the last month had really gotten to me, and I needed someone to take that rage out on—finding this guy really couldn't have come at a better time.
Even training with pack members the last two days wasn't cutting. I needed to watch someone scream as I made them bleed. I needed t

The Deadly One Agreement
Chapter Twenty-one - AgreementReyna's POVI thought about the text all night, only giving Balor a response this morning after I discussed it with Piper. We went back and forth, and ultimately, she told me it was my decision.I don't know why I agreed to meet him. Maybe it was curiosity or the fact that I seriously couldn't stop myself from entering a dangerous situation. But here I was sitting in an empty coffee shop waiting for him even though he was already five minutes late and probably only set this up to mess with me.I looked at the time on my phone and then the clock on the wall. It was five past six. I pulled up to my pocket media app and began scrolling through recent posts trying to busy myself as I waited for Balor to arrive, if he was even going to, that is. I closed th
The Deadly One The Plan
Chapter Twenty-two - The PlanBalor's POVMy body ached in all the right places, telling me I pushed myself like I needed to. My chest was coated in a layer of sweat. I grabbed my water and squirted it into my mouth before drenching my head.Lincoln and I always made time to train, even in the city. We found a private boxing gym and blocked out a few hours a week to get out all the pent-up energy our wolves seemed to produce."So, how'd it go?" Lincoln asked.I didn't bother clarifying what he meant. He had told me he wanted to talk about how the meeting with Reyna went once he got back to the city, and I told him I would once we were done beating each other's faces in."It wasn't the worst meeting," I muttered. Lincoln scoffed
The Deadly One Intertwined
Chapter Twenty-Three - IntertwinedReyna's POVI looked at the man in front of me, trying my best to keep my mask on, not wanting him to see through our whole plan.When I was younger, I looked up to him, believed he would always protect us. But when Vicky got killed, and he disappeared, it shattered whatever love I had for him into a billion pieces.I pushed back the rage and hatred that was bubbling in my stomach—forcing myself to step forward and pull him into a hug. I tucked my head into the crook of his neck, something I used to do whenever I was scared as a child. I inhaled through my mouth, trying to avoid inhaling his familiar aroma of honeyed cigars and scotch."You were right, and I was too scared to believe you. But I'
The Deadly One Suffocation
Chapter Twenty- Four - Suffocation Balor's POV Everything seemed to be falling into place. We caught the rat, and we now had a plan to take down the whole rat's nest. Everything was looking up, or it at least it should have been. Something about this whole plan wasn't sitting right, and I had the most challenging time pushing the doubt away. Unease sat in the pit of my stomach as I nursed my glass of whiskey. The party was tomorrow, and I went to the packhouse to clear my head. The city's noise was too overwhelming right now, and I just wanted to have a moment to breathe. "You know if you keep scowling like, your face might stay that way." I looked up to see Penelope leaning against the doorframe. Her head was slightly tilted, and her lips pursed as she watched me. I let out a grunt as I took another sip of my drink.
The Deadly One Double-crossed
Chapter Twenty-five - Double-crossedReyna's POV"So what are we looking for exactly? I thought we already had others look through all of this." Sullivan complained as we looked over the file for the third time.I tapped my foot as I looked through every detail of the file in my hand. I finally got to the bank statements we had acquired, looking for any suspicious activity, and it was like the stars had aligned, and I was granted a break for once.I moved to the following file, finding the same thing. Twice a month, payments were made to Bloodstone Security accounts. As I moved from one file to the next, a smile spread across my face."What'd you find?" Sullivan asked, her brow arched.
The Deadly One Deception
Chapter Twenty-Six - Deception Reyna's POV "It's nice to meet you, Eugene." I gave him a soft smile before turning my attention to the rest of the ballroom. Ribbons and tulle were draped across the ceiling. Twinkling lights, slowly blinking above them, giving off the illusion of stars. The tables that surrounded the dance floor were covered in black cloth along with silver runners. Black feathers fanned out from the top of tall vases as pearls and crystals hung off of the top of the vase. Everyone was dressed in beautiful formal wear. The men all wore perfectly tailored suits, and the woman wore the more beautiful gowns. Most even flashier and fancier than mine. I didn't believe in fairytales or magic for that matter, but this place was enchanting.
The Deadly One Temptation
Chapter Twenty-Seven - TemptationBalor's POVI waited anxiously for Reyna to return from the meeting. I wasn't sure what to expect, and the fact that I couldn't actually be in there only made matters worse.I had covered all of my bases. I glamoured myself to everyone except Reyna, which took a lot of energy. I also cast a memory spell on the host so she wouldn't ever remember encountering me. These events were so exclusive that I didn't even have to worry about cameras, which was an added bonus. Phones weren't even allowed past the front entrances, saving me from having to find a way to delete all photographic evidence of Reyna being here too."Another, sir?" The dealer asked me. I nodded as he placed another card down in front of me.Fredericks went all out for these events. Apart from the ballroom and over-the-top decorations. He also had another room sectioned off and turned into a casino."House wins.Would you look to play again?
The Deadly One Bliss
Chapter Twenty - Eight- BlissBalor's POVWe sneaked past one of the barricades that blocked the rest of the house off from guests. Reyna giggled as she kept looking around, expecting someone to stop us.I used my wolf hearing to make sure no one was coming as we rounded the corner. The sound of footsteps sounded behind us, and I reached for her hand, tugging her to move faster behind me. I went to let go of her hand as we rounded another corner, but Reyna only squeezed tighter.My heart started to beat a little faster as sparks travelled up my arm. I wondered if she could feel them too. If she could feel the same warmth I did, whenever our skin touched."This way," I said, pulling her in the direction we needed to go.
