Aden's POVIt seems everyone is finding their mates these days except for me. First, it was Charles and Menessa, now it's Elliot and Lisa. Even though I had seen Kierra, I wasn't as happy as I thought I'll be. She's alive but not with me, we aren't even mates. I promised her years ago I didn't care if we turned out as mates or not, I am going to stick with her. I began to have terrible thoughts, the one that scared me more was that; what if it turns out Kierra has been staying with Argon because they are mates? The thought alone weakened me and made me feel squeamish.Another thought came."And if it does happen to be so, can't you fight for her Aden? Will you just let your brother have her?"Then another thought."Walk in there and seize her. That's what an Alpha will do."I wanted to scream. I think I am losing my mind."Why are you tapping your feet, are you angry or is something bothering you?" Elliot asked."You don't want to know Elliot. The anger I feel right now is so intens

Aden's POVWhat happened two days ago was proof that Elliot was being watched. He swore he wasn't going to let this slide.Elliot immediately reconsidered his decision about helping me. We left his house which was wrecked by Igatus men.I told him to come with me. He asked if where I stayed was safe. I answered him by telling him when he sees the location, he can conclude for himself if it was or wasn't. When we reached he asked."Do you own this?""Yeah," I answered."Woooh, I wasn't expecting this. I had something different in mind" Elliot looked around the house."Perhaps you think that because I have a tragic story, then all aspects of my life should miserable. " Most times that's how it should be. Haha... Just joking. I think I like it here already" he said as he sat on a couch. and crossed his legs. I had made the mistake of hating Elliot at first, despite our experience with Igatus's men, he still found a way to look happy and carefree."I briefed Cassel about our encounter a

Aden's POV"It's done! I delivered it" Elliot grinned as he joined us near the fountain. I sat in silence while Cassel had his back to a tree with his head downward and Piers who sat next to me had his arms folded. We all looked distraught by the incident."And I didn't see Lucian this time." He added."Still not sure if he lives there huh, we need to be sure. Only then can we conclude that he is a spy" he continued speaking."Yeah, why is everybody looking sad? Did anything bad happen? What did I miss?" Elliot asked."Menessa is dead" Cassel answered."Menessa? Oh, the spy lady who works for Aden. How did that happen? And where is Charles?"I couldn't reply to Elliot's questions, I was too hurt to speak. I wasn't prepared for what had hit me today. Menessa is gone."Igatus had her killed right in front of us and we can't say where Charles had gone. He took her corpse with him." Piers replied."The son of bitch! He is now after us. That means he has been keeping his eyes on us." Elli

Aden's POVCassel told me while I was down that Kierra called Menessa's phone number severally but he could not pick it up as he said he had no idea what he was going to tell her and he could further cause confusion.I went through Menessa's phone, it was a good thing that one did not have to input a password to access it like the way most people would do today. I checked for the two numbers I was interested in, one was Kierra's and the second was Madam Charity's. In an earlier message Menessa sent I discovered she had intended to meet with Kierra but the next message which looked scheduled showed Menessa would not be able to come and had instructed Kierra to meet Madam Charity. It was scheduled because the time it showed that Kierra was to receive this message was hours after Menessa was shot dead.So Menessa knew she wasn't going to make it. Why would she give up on living? She should have hinted to me she was in trouble. Menessa was a beautiful soul. Despite being sure that I co

Aden's POVElliot called to tell me Lisa was nowhere to be found. This was weird because Elliot had told me he would wait for her to be done with her classes, and then they would both go to her apartment to pick up her stuff and finally come over here. That was how it was supposed to be.That was the plan!My world was falling apart. The crisis was growing; Kierra is with my evil twin brother, Madam Charity has been stuck in that prison called a house for ages, Menessa is dead, Charles is nowhere to be found, and Lisa has gone missing for hours now. What wrong have I done? Perhaps I am cursed! That was the only explanation for why I had a series of problems.People around me end up getting hurt or dead. I was losing confidence in myself. Whenever I think of getting back what my brother took from me; that's becoming an Alpha again, I stop to ask myself if I deserve it. I feel like an imposter. I used to feel great about being able to fix things but I wasn't confident about that anymor
