Everyone has a dark past that you can never run from it. Theresa Young goes by the name of Terry may have left her dark past, but it still haunts her. Pretending to be a man, Terry became Odin King's hitman to gain unlimited resources to find a person. She killed countless people and stained her hands with blood Terry will do anything to find the woman who had ruined her. Her mind is filled with revenge and hatred for that woman she had to leave the people she cared about. When Terry was informed about the woman's whereabouts, she packed up and left California to go on a cruise ship. Disguise as a tourist and spot the person connected to her target, she was then bumped into someone she didn't unexpectedly make her heart race the moment her eyes met his ocean blue ones. Seth Wolfe, the second eldest among the Wolfe brothers and the playboy of the family, decided to follow Terry. He left without saying goodbye to his family and friends to follow the man he cared about. Seth was angry and upset that his best friend left him without saying anything and wanted an explanation. He followed Terry on a cruise ship, and he searched for him. Little did he know his eagerness ignored the people on the boat and accidentally bumped into a woman with the same pretty boy face as his best friend. One look at this woman made his heart race, and the thing between his legs jerked. That is until he realized this woman was his best friend in woman's clothing. Although Terry is a male, seeing him in a woman's dress made Seth feel something he had never expected towards a male or confused about his sexuality.
View MoreI release a shaky breath and see him still angry, so I continue the most meaningful excuse. "When we finally got something, Kendall had to download a file off their computer.""What's in the file?" He says with an aggravated sigh.That's good. He seems interested. "Well, it's a list of the older children they have kidnapped and made them inject the drug. The one they used on Myles. Then...Kendall found a hidden folder." I look up at him as my chest feels heavy and aches, not from the pain from my leg, though it still fucking hurts and still feels sore all over my body from the fight."You wouldn't believe what was in that folder," I scoff and continue. I sniffle, remove the folded paper from my bra, and hand it to him.He lifts a brow at my way of carrying things and takes it. Seth unfolds the sheet of paper; his eyes widen, and he glances my way. "It's your birth certificate." I nod. "You found this in their computer?"I nodded again and replied, "Yes.""The father's name is not here
The rain started pouring once I reached the house in this cinematic situation. I park my bike in the driveway and dash towards the door with my helmet off. I knocked frantically, and after hitting the palm of my hand, the door flung open."Terry? What in God's name-"I made myself inside, drenched. "Sorry, I forgot...my key."Lame.Effie shuts the door and crosses her arms over her chest, pouting. She stares at me with her piercing silver-gray eyes. "Is that all you got to say after MIA for a week?" Oh boy, she's mad. Plus, the hormones increase her disappointment towards me. "Do you know how worried I was? Everyone was? How was Poppy when I was gone? She asked about you every day, wondering when her mother is coming home, and I have to repeat the same answer."She is furious."I'm sorry, there were many things to do at work. I lost track of time and sleep." I brush my hair back. I am still determining when the last time I slept was. I took naps here and there but wasn't in dreamland.
I speed down the freeway, heading to Long Beach. I slurve and pass a few cars around after midnight at full speed.Looking at the rearview mirror, I noticed a black car following me behind. It has been tailing me ever since I merged into the freeway. I was being paranoid at first, thinking the car was going in a fast lane, but it's been following me.I can't have it follow me home.I twist my wrist, increasing the speed of my bike. I turn my head and see the black car closing in on me."Shit," I grit my teeth. "Damn Order."I knew they would be following me. The signal from the island had triggered a security system to their base.I increased the speed of my bike just a bit so I could continue the road on the freeway. Minutes later, the car sped up and was on my right. I look, and the window on the passenger seat opens as an Order member in a mask to hide their identity pulls himself out with a gun.With one hand, I grab his wrist, trying to point it away as I struggle to stabilize my
My mind is adrift from anything that had happened on that day. I couldn't focus on anything. Since meeting Keith, my uncle, and learning about my mother and finding out she is the same woman who not only abandoned me but made my whole childhood life hell.This past week hasn't been my week. I've been hanging out at the agency, giving combat lessons for the rookies, and I wasn't myself. I was hard on myself but more on those who weren't a part of it. I lash at people, and they avoid me as if I'm on a murdering spree."Cap? Cap!"I snap my way at Kendall and everyone in the room. All eyes were on me as if I had grown a second head.Kendall was giving a seminar about the Order's compound detailing all the security cameras from the streets and buildings, the main office, and where the recruits are holding children. We had permission from Odin to infiltrate the compound, so having this meeting will give us a better and safer plan. It will be a month before the raid.Forgotten about this me
I glance back at the picture, and I can see the hate my mother put so much to cross an X over her father's face. It must have broken her heart once he told her she was nothing. I always felt that while I was in the Order. I was nothing but a pawn, an item to be used however they pleased. They didn't treat me as a person. I took one small picture and stuck it inside the back pocket of my jeans, then put the rest back inside the folder. I handed it back to Dr. Swanson. "What about the birth certificate I found?" I pull out the paper from my pocket and hand it to him. The older man unfolded it, made a glance, and handed it back. "I had it classified in the system before I erased it to give you an authentic document." I fold the paper back into my pocket and sigh. "How did she find out her lover is also her father?" I ask as he takes the Manila folder back. "She already knew." My brows furrow at his response. "She knew?" Dr. Swanson nodded. "Then...my mother fell in love with him
I approach the hospital's automatic doors, watching the staff pass by me in a rush. People are waiting to be checked in or just waiting.It's busy today, but standing here and observing wasn't my purpose. I walk over to the receptionist, a middle-aged African woman with short curly hair, a lovely dark complexion, and wearing Snoopy scrubs. She is sitting behind the counter typing on her computer. When she looks up and plasters a cheerful smile, although behind that expression - working in a hospital can make anyone feel cranky, and this woman seems she has not slept since her shift.Better not"Hi, are you here for an appointment?" She asks with a forceful smile."Um. No, I'm here to ask if Dr. Keith P. Swanson is available?"The receptionist, whose name on her ID badge says Anita Cook, looks at me as if I made up the name. "He's not here.""Oh, do you know when his shift starts?""Dr. Swanson hasn't worked here for 26 years. He retired right after a scandal with a patient of his."Sc
As the lift door opened, my eyes tried to adjust to the darkness of the secret lab. The only light source we had was the light of the lift."Lights on," I command.I switched on my head's light strap as I stepped forward. My boots stepped on broken glass, followed by crunching sounds behind me, led by Gunnar and Kendall. I check my surroundings, always being cautious, aiming my gun at wide-open spaces of the lab. This place seems more extensive than on video."Fuck, this place is a total wreck," Gunnar proclaims. "It's like a hurricane hit here.""Kendall, got on a reading?" I ask her.Her infrared gadget tells us it is beeping if anybody is done here. "I see four live bodies, but they are strapped on the other side of that door straight ahead.""There are more?" Gunnar says softly.We approached forward towards a keycard door. I stepped back, let Gunnar implant a C4 paste on the handle, and pressed the button. As we took a step back a few feet while the bomb beeps, it gave out a soun
"Cap, we are ten miles towards the island," Gunnar announced through the headset while he flew the helicopter.Kendall and I strap the parachute pack on our backs, wear wetsuits, and prepare to fall into the water to reach the island."Ken, you got the smokers?" I ask while I strap my boots tight and sheath the small weapons in my belt."They are here," she put the bag next to her. "What did Seth say when you left?"The thought of this morning had me smirking. "He wouldn't let me go.""Were you guys naked?" Kendall wiggles her brows and grins as I hear Gunnar groaning through the headset, knowing he doesn't want to listen to this conversation. "You know, in ancient times, before a big battle, the soldiers would make love with their lovers as a way for them to return.""No," I assure her, rolling my eyes at her assertion. Her words are unpredictable; I couldn't even argue with her. Although I don't want to go through details of how his hard rock cock was poking me in the back. "I had t
I drove up to the Reid's house as I shut off my bike's engine. Effie had texted me that they were all back home. It was already past bedtime, and I planned to pick up Poppy and take us home, but it seemed too late. I just had a talk with Odin about the hidden laboratory and concocted Eva's plan for using the drug. Odin had sent out scouts to check out Paradise Island.Five went in. Zero came out.We had lost visual and audio contact with the scout team. The last image was a person; Kendall had it closed up, and high-quality footage, as we saw, didn't look human. It had crazy bloody eyes and foam coming out from its mouth, and it attacked one of our team who had the camera. It was the same symptoms as Myles. Before the camera could lose visual, we saw not one but lots of them. It's the reason why the scout team lost their lives. It was a tragic scene to watch. It's like watching a horror film.A lot has happened within a day, and I want to get home to my daughter and man. I must rest m
