The moment I walked into my office building, I knew that something was wrong. People turned to stare at me, their eyes were cold and distasteful. I stopped in my tracks and looked around, I could hear my own blood pounding in my ear.I walked forward as quickly as I could and when I got into my cubicle, I slumped against the seat.The clicking of heels that was coming my way was not mistakable, it was Mrs Rosa, the chair woman.“Rainee, get up, the boss wants to see you."“Is something wrong?."My question went unanswered, her glare made me jerk up from my seat. She turned immediately and I stood up, so I followed behind her.I was aware that people were whispering, throwing me glances of disgust and shaking their heads. Mrs Rosa pushed open the crystal clear glass doors. Immediately I walked in, the boss tapped a remote, and everything, both the glass walls and doors turned opaque and foggy.“Sit." He instructed me, his voice was too calm, too calm for me to take another breath.“Mr

“They threw you in jail for a crime you did not commit and you let them?." My mother asked me.Her no nonsense face was now contorted in a frown, her right foot was tapping on the ground as if she needed to let her emotions out through that movement. “What was I supposed to do, eat them?. You know very well that Mr Grant is a Beta that is well respected, he has allies. I couldn't attack him, he thought I was a criminal, it would have confirmed his suspicions." It was the longest statement I had ever used to defend myself. “You're the daughter of one of the richest families in the country and you let that stupid old fool walk over you. Forget the wealth Rainee, have you forgotten that even the tiniest pup in our pack would tear any body that poses as a threat, to pieces," my mother was furious. Her words were like newly sharpened blades. “You are the opposite of the strength and courage this family represent."“Mum." Vinx said cautiously, my mother paid him no attention.“You're wolf

I heard terrible noises, it jolted me from sleep. It was as if the house was being demolished. I jumped from my bed, took out the chair from the door and ran out.Kalum had tackled Vinx and they were fighting. It was a dangerous brawl, blood was on their clothes, leaking from cuts in their flesh. “What is going on here?." Was the only question my brain permitted me to ask.The both of them turned to me at the same time and they stared at me long and hard. Their eyes still held that dark rage and all that anger was concentrated on me.I couldn't hold their stare, it was too powerful. My eyes fell to the ground instead and I watched my feet.“Go back to your room." Vinx said.He sounded angry.I looked up and was surprised to see that they hadn't moved.“Your hair, why did you put it up?." Kalum asked me, his voice was icy."No-nothing." He stood up and came towards me, every step he took made my soul recoil into wherever it lived inside my body.Red liquid stained his face, it was his

I laid on my bed staring at the beautiful ceiling in defeat. All the lights were turned off and it was dark outside, only artificial lighting from the balcony presented me with an outline of everything in the room. I heard the door open and I didn't need to look at who was standing there to know who it really was. I could smell him. “Rough day?." Vinx asked, his voice was smooth, a very disturbing contrast to how I felt inside.When I did not reply he continued. “Cassie told me you went out with Mason and Josh. I asked and they said you were job hunting."" So you are practically spying on me?." My voice came out bitter, I couldn't stop seeing Nolaine, that beautiful woman. I couldn't stop seeing her with them. my mind couldn't stop flashing intimate pictures of her with the both of them. Who was she to them?"I came home and they informed me that you left, I was worried." I closed my eyes and inhaled.“It didn't go well. I don't think I'll ever work in an office. I think I'll be

“You have the package, you can leave now." Vinx said and there was no how you couldn't hear the authority in his voice, it wasn't even a request.Whoever Felix was they were more powerful and whatever rank he held they were the highest.He nodded his head at me." We shall meet again." He whispered and threw them a sly grin. His shoes clicked rhythmically as he exited the house. I could feel the charisma leave with him. I turned to Kalum and Vinx, they were watching me with a look I knew too well.Their eyes were filled with mischief.“I see you're in the mood of flirting." Kalum said flatly.Vinx nodded approvingly of his brother's observation.I bit my bottom lips and Kalum's eyes fell to it, his stare lingered there, burning me all over.“You traded your life when you asked for our help in prison, doesn't it mean we own you?."I scoffed.“I didn't trade my life, I thought I've told you bef—""You did Rae, because without us you would have spent your life in prison."“I can't be se
