Audrey’s POVI breathed out heavily as I raised my hand above my head and knocked on Kaden’s large mahogany door and almost as soon as I knocked, it flung open revealing Kaden with a newspaper in his hand and a reading glass sitting on his nose.Asides the low waisted joggers he was wearing, he was completely bare; I gulped.“Come on in!” He offered, gesticulating with his arm and as soon as he said those words, I didn’t wait for him to repeat himself before I stepped in quickly and shut the door behind me.The room was a mess. He had tons of books lying everywhere, ranging from his table to the floor and sofas. It looked too disorganized.“Why do you have so many books lying about?” I asked but when I turned to look in the direction he was once standing, I was shocked to see that he was no longer here.“Where is he?” I thought to myself but then sighed when I heard sounds coming from his bathroom, which signified that he was there.A few minutes later, he walked out of the bathroom l
Audrey's POVHaving had the best time with Alpha Kaden, he hadn't lost his touch in fulfilling my desires whenever I wanted to be with him. I guess this was one of the main reasons I always wanted him.Still filled with the thoughts of our intense love making, I was brought back to reality with the touch of Alpha Kaden’s fingers grazing the length of my shoulders."What are you thinking about?" Kaden inquired, looking at me. "Many thoughts are in my mind I guess," I divulged, staring at the expensive beautiful paintings of people he had designed on his room’s ceiling. I wondered how people got to construct it without falling, the paintings were mind blowing. "Are they precisely about me? "Alpha Kaden asked as he placed his hands in mine. "Probably "I chuckled as I turned to have a good look at the man that was the main reason of my thoughts."Won't that be cheating? Your head is filled with the thoughts of me while I'm not doing the same "Alpha Kaden laughed as he had his hands on
Kaden’s POV“What!?” Escaped? How is that even possible?” I screamed at Adler who had brought in the news.“We don’t know…we’re not sure.” Adler replied me his eyes looking down.“You’re not sure? How am I supposed to work with that!?” I screamed again.“I mean we are still trying to figure out how it happened, I have sent a few scouting team to track him down. We should know exactly how it happened soon enough.” Adler then said to me, this time looking straightly towards me.“A few Scouting team? The person who tried to murder me has escaped and you sent just a few soldiers to go after him!? Send half the soldiers and get him back here immediately!” I thundered at Adler.“Yes my king.” Adler replied me and turned quickly to leave the room.He was about to leave the room when I called him back and dished out more orders for him to execute. I wanted him to double all the guards’ duty and keep them alert on any suspicious movements around the pack. I also wanted to see for myself the c
Audrey’s POV After telling Kaden why I was so determined to join in Erik’s chase. He thought for a while and in my mind I was hoping he would come to agree with my reason and let me join the hunt but after some time, he responded but still stood firm on his decision to not allow me do as I wished.To confirm that he was not in any way going to let me put myself back in danger, he called Adler and told him that I was not in any way allowed with them in the search for Erik. He also called one of the guards outside his office and told them that they should keep a close eye on me, never letting me leave the pack.“If this is true, I will find that out but still, I’m not letting you go out there and that is final.” He said with his fist thumping the table behind him.I was furious at him knowing that there was just no way I could have what I wanted so I stormed out of his office and went straight to Shantel’s cell in the psychiatric center. Since I was not allowed to leave the pack and I
Audrey’s POVFear, that was all I could feel as I stared into the deep dark orbs that glinted back at me. Shantel could be scary when she wanted to and this was one of those times I almost feared her.Right now, I wasn’t really scared of her but instead was scared of what she could do if she was allowed out of this cell.“Hey, deal or no deal?” She called, waving at my face and I had no other option but to look up at her.She had this maniacal look on her face that made me almost scream; ‘no deal!’ but this was important. Too important to let my fears get the best of me.I gingerly pulled my hands in front of myself and thrusted it into one of the spaces between the metallic barricades. She immediately took the cue and placed her hand in mine.“Deal.” I said.“Cool,” She replied with a smile, and then let go of my hand. For a minute, I almost wanted to take back my words but after weighing all of my odds, I ruled that thought out of my mind.I needed Shantel’s help whether I trusted
Audrey’s POV:“You better start talking before I slit this disgusting throat of yours into two… no one, not even your mate would recognize you by the time I am done with you.” Shantel growled into my ears but surprisingly I didn’t even flinch.I was already becoming too used to her several meaningless threats that now they held no substance to me anymore. She was all bark and no bite.“What do you want me to start saying?” I asked. My voice came out a little harshly because the grip she had on my neck was becoming too tight. It felt like I was about to be chortled to death.“About the poison, you motherfucker!”“I already told you I didn’t do it!” I snarled at her; “And in fact, I already told you I think Erik is responsible!”“So you think I am that much of a fool who would believe that your cock and bull story about Erik being responsible for poisoning me?” Shantel whispered into my ears with the knife still pressed firmly against my neck.“It’s not a cock and bull story and I do n
Audrey’s POV:Everyone had not still gotten over the case of Erik and how strangely it ended. Erik, who had gone through the efforts of escaping the dungeons and fleeing, had returned to the camp all by himself – well at least it was what most people thought, only I and Shantel knew the truth about the whole turn of events and I intended to keep it that way. I knew Kaden would wonder how it had all happened but I was not willing to say anything to him, not yet at least and as we sat together in his office talking about not just Erik’s case but the entire events of the past few days, I allowed Kaden to wonder how Erik had suddenly had a change of mind and returned to the pack even after he had sent a troop after him.However, I discovered that what bothered Kaden most, and at the course of our discussion seemed a mystery to him was how I was aware or suspected of Erik’s involvement in Shantel’s poisoning. He was surprised that my suspicions which he had learned about only hours befor
Audrey’s POVThe next day in court, seated there waiting for the sentencing to commence, I turned around to observe the people seated there also patiently waiting for the verdict; the verdict which most people could have already guessed the outcome. Before then, before Erik’s mysterious escape and return, he had already been convicted of numerous crimes and back once more in the courtroom for another case, fresh charges were stirred up against him in addition to the previous ones. I looked at him standing inside the podium and I could not help pity him a bit as he looked miserable. I knew the feeling of his current situation as I had been there not long ago. I imagined mocking him like he had done to me before but it just did not sit right with me. I noticed that he avoided my stare which I had no problem with, for I entertained no mockery of him.I turned towards where Kaden sat and watched as he wore a stormy excursion on his face. I could see that he was eager for the whole thing
