IANI forced the tie to sit on my neck and dusted my shoulders as I looked into my vintage mirror. My sky blue eyes had grown darker over the years and my decan brown hair was fuller. I had also added some weight and muscle as well.“Sir…” Anna, my sexy PA called out, walking in. “…you have an appointment today at 7 am after breakfast at 6:30 with the Shellong’s App company. They have offered a pre-proposal of creating an app for online orders for our company, sir.”I sprayed two splashes of cologne on me and perfected my recently made wavy tapered haircut. “At 10 am, you have a monthly update call with Alpha Cannon, sir…”Everything she said after that was unheard when my mind shifted to the Moonstone pack. It had been six years since I saw my brothers… or my pack. I thought father’s death wouldn’t affect me but it affected me the most.On the night father died, Cannon miraculously became the new Alpha over a stupid rule we didn’t even know existed. The f*cker didn’t blink twice befo
KATRINAI reached the gate and tried to get it open but it wouldn’t budge. A blue beam of light emerged from it, scanning me from head to toe. A few seconds later, it automatically unlocked. That wasn’t there this morning. Gosh, Carissa was always making unnecessary upgrades. I walked down the small interlocked path and looked at the lawn on my right and left. She had a lot of free time today since the lawn was mowed too. I stepped into the parking spot of the cars which had a black Camry at the left and a white Toyota at the right.I didn’t take cars to work because it was bad for business. They didn’t know where I lived and that was why I only limited our friendship to the store.The duplex was cream, her favorite color, and the balcony rested against the wall, demarcating the first floor and ground floor, being overshadowed by the pillars that held a miniature roof, specifically designed to prevent sun rays from reaching the balcony.A cross-hipped brown-ash roof covered our heads
IANI’ve never quite listened to the schedule reports Anna updates me about every morning. But d*mn, I wish I did because today was a bloody Monday and it was the first of the month—Summer. So, everything was pretty f*cked up and there were so many things laid down not only for today but for the rest of the week.Anna reminded and informed me before the actual activities but it wasn’t like knowing what you were doing.It reminded me of the first day I became CEO. I thought Cannon was nuts for leaving me in charge of the company ‘cause I had no f*cking idea of a thing I was doing. But then Anna, my PA, dived in and handled everything like a pro.She’s saved my butt many times and I don’t know what I’d do without her. But she wasn’t only good in the office, she was good on the bed too because she was the only one that could give me s*x as half as good as Katrina’s.“Mr. Watson has managed to squeeze in an appointment with you and it’s starting in the next five minutes. I’ll bring in drin
KATRINAThey jumped from their seats and ran toward us, surrounding us.“Mummy, is it true? Are we going to LA?!” Aurora squealed, jumping to the highest as her hair bounced, with her hands on my lap.“Yes, mummy! Let’s go! We’re going, aren’t we Auntie Carry?!” Dash was as excited as his sister.Carissa turned to me since I was the one calling the shots over this. Hilda was once excited too but she didn’t seem to be very happy about it anymore.“Well, I haven’t decided yet.”Aurora tugged at my lap. “Let’s go, mummy! Pretty pretty pretty please!”That cute face she made was not going to work on me.“We never go anywhere because of Hilda!”“Don’t say that about your sister, Dash,” I warned him.‘So what do you say? Are they going?’ Carissa asked through a mind-link.‘I don’t know…’‘It’s going to be fun. I promise. Do it for the kids at least.’‘But I need someone’s approval first.’I called Hilda over and she slowly walked toward me, while Dash made a funny face at her.“Do you want t
KATRINA“I don’t know, Issa.”“Come on, it’ll be fun.”“Yes, mummy! You should go!” Dash agreed.There was only one reason why he’d want me to leave. Hilda looked away and went to the tray, trying to get it open.“But is it safe to leave the kids here?”“They’ll be fine. Won’t you children?”The mischievous two nodded. Hilda had managed to open it and was breaking the lobster apart, eating it up. Thankfully, none of them were allergic to seafood.“But Issa…”She grabbed my hand and pulled me up.“Please, I can’t face him without you.”I groaned and eventually agreed. I smiled when Aurora and Dash joined Hilda in eating the lobster.“Okay kids, you don’t leave this room until we get back. Got that?” The three of them nodded and we left to the conference room. It didn’t take us long before we found it even though the hotel was like a f*cking maze.‘Isn’t that why they call it the five-star express?’I almost choked on my water.As we climbed down the stairs, a large board meeting table
KATRINA“Run!”The kids got my call and ran for the exit door. Ian growled in pain and turned me over, with him now on me and my back on the floor.“How dare you!”Before he could strike me, I blew some sleeping dust on his face and he went unconscious. I pushed him off me and went to the exit door as well. The kids hadn’t gone too far—fortunately, and unfortunately—and I could see the fear in their eyes.They ran to me and squeezed me tightly.“Mummy, what’s going on?” Hilda asked, tears still in her eyes.I only had fifteen minutes before Ian woke up and we needed to get the heck out of here. “Don’t worry, everything will be fine.” I rubbed their heads. “But we have to go. Come on kids.”As we rushed to the parking lot of the hotel, the kids asked me numerous questions but I wasn’t able to answer most of them.“Mummy, did you see, we threw our stuff at him!”“Yes, that’s very good.”I was so tensed and the kids were still so energized even though we were running around the hotel lik
KATRINACarissa banged the door, groaning in frustration when there wasn’t any answer. Rain was pouring heavily and I wasn’t comfortable keeping my kids in the rain.‘Stop overacting, Kat. They’re wearing raincoats.’“Are you sure he's home?” I asked, shivering a bit.She knocked harder. I got tired of waiting in the rain and was about to kick the door open when Henry opened it. He showed up in a bathing robe, showing off his chest hairs and the side view of a wolf tattoo on there. He had blonde hair with very obvious dark roots and was muscular, and heavily built.He had marble grey eyes and the sweetest smile of any guy I’ve ever met.He was very handsome but he was a wolf—normal standards. Before he could say anything, I barged in, pushing him aside. Goddess, I was so confused. Carissa followed while Henry carried the children.“Uncle Henry! Do you want to hear what we did today?!” Aurora shrieked happily as he swung her over his neck. He carried Dash in one hand and Hilda in the
IAN“We’ve been searching for her, sir. The jet changed its landing point and we have been unable to find her yet.”I turned my swivel chair to him, grasping its handles so I wouldn’t pounce at him or anyone else in the office.“A jet isn’t so small that it could just disappear!” The urge to retract my claws and scratch his face was high but I had to hold it in. There were too many humans here already and I didn’t want to make an unnecessary scene.A member from the Los Angeles Board of Police commission was present, along with some of his cops and a private detective that just joined recently… but none of them were doing enough. I didn’t want the FBI on this case since I’ve already had bad records with them but if I didn’t act fast, they’d poke their noses into it.“Doesn’t the jet have a tracker?” I asked, trailing my eyes around the different sets of eyes around.“The tracker was destroyed and disposed of in Portland.”F*ck.Katrina
