I know I'm not a good person by any stretch of the imagination. I'm dangerous. I lie and I kill. But I wasn't a bad person either. Everything I do, I do because I want to protect my family by all means. That duty has been mine since birth, as I am the son of the former Prime Alpha and Beta, as well as the current Prime Alpha's brother. It was never wrong to want to preserve your family's legacy by eliminating anything or anyone that posed a threat to them.I brush my hand over Tiffany's soft skin, my hand moving from her face to her hair, then down to her waist and back up. Her head was propped up on my chest and her hands were wrapped around me. It provided me with the reassurance that I was protecting her from any harm that might come her way. The next couple of days were going to be decisive, and she would be my top priority. She snuggled deeper into my embrace, smiling with her eyes clos

Kayden's POV I hated senate meetings, but I had no choice. I'll continue to participate in them until my son becomes the Prime Alpha. Since I refused to take a plane back home, I have missed a lot. Blake and Jeremy filled us in on what had happened and the current situation with the rebels before we started to talk about the economy. As usual, Elijah led us through it. He was a financial guru and we looked up to him for advice on these kinds of matters. Currently, Vince and Raymond were talking to us about their budgeting proposal, which was all about explaining how their plans for making changes to the tax structure in the country would work according to their budget. Vince pointed at one of the largest holographic numbers floating behind him. As we can all see, this percentage of tax decrease would then transfer to the people who have a lot of financial sta

Lisa's POV "You won't be alone. I'll come to visit you from time to time."“That's a lot, and I can't ask you to make such a commitment. You have a country that's on the brink of war to take care of. You'll soon need to get a wife and have kids to raise. "His breath tickles my neck. His lips slowly nibbled on the skin between my jaw and my collarbone. The butterflies in my stomach flapped around violently. His lips brushed against my neck again as he whispered ever so gently."I want you to stay with me, Lisa." He kissed me again. I couldn't handle the heat anymore. I stand up, whirling around, keeping the chair between us."What are you doing, Kay

Lisa's POV   "Lisa!" I pull myself up and reach for the switch. I flick the light and move towards the door when something brown catches my eye at the base of the door. It was an envelope. I scooped it up and folded it in half before I tucked it into my drawer. My door eventually gives way and Jonas barges in. "What happened? I could hear you screaming from the hallway." "I was attacked, but they escaped." I rubbed my cheek, still feeling the effect of the punch. "You should have left when you had the chance." Jonas frowned at me. "I think it rebelled, though. Maybe they came for re

Lisa's POV I stand up, feeling squeamish. I brush and smooth out my dress. I bent down and fastened the silver heels Tiffany had lent me for the night. My heart was pounding as I slipped my hands into the arm-length silk gloves. I can do this. It was what I was trained for most of my life. I'd managed to get into the heart of the council, and now it was time to stab it a little. I only hope I didn't do a lot of damage to the people who have given me so much.I opened my door and looked both ways to see who else was in the hallway. I was empty. I let out a sigh of relief as I stepped out and made my way up the stairs where classical music was wafting from. I stepped into the ballroom, and I was blown away by the sight before me. The council knew how to throw
