Blood Ties And Betrayal: The rogues redemption のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Flashback I rushed into the dining room when I heard Derek's car, I hurriedly arranged the table and cups properly, before taking another spree into the kitchen, I washed my hands and dried them with the hand towels then I hung them back. I smiled, everything was in place, dessert has been made, the cake was baked, and the meal was also prepared. I took a great time that morning grilling the steaks and making sure it was all greasy and a little spicy, just as Derek liked them. His footsteps grew closer, by the time the doorknob twisted and he stepped a foot in, I threw in the air the foil cutout I made shouting… “Welcome back daddy, and happy birth—day” the rest of the words came out almost mechanically as a pair of black heels stepped into the sitting room. Derek stood at 6.2ft tall. His black hair was just like mine, soft and smooth. I'd helped him dry and combed them when I was little. Derek took the hand of the brunette woman behind him and brought her to my side. There w

Maverick I shouldn't be here tonight, I glanced the watch on my wrist with a straight face as I walked into the party, now it only remained for me to wait for that man. The orchestral was slowly playing in the background, but my eyes didn't leave the watch, why is he taking so damn long! Frowning, I took out my cell phone and put Alex's number on the dial. "Didn't you say he was going to be here in a few minutes? What's taking him so damn long?" "Can you hold for a moment and let me get in contact with him to know what's going on," He said from the other end, putting me on hold. After a few seconds, his voice came through the line again, "He won't be coming tonight, something held him up, I think you should come back now, I've already scheduled another meeting with him in a week time, but I will be the one meeting him, we can't have you strangling him to death.” My brows were tightly knitted together as my fist clenched against the phone, "He should've just said he would

Ember"Kai...?I started slowly, reaching out a hand and touching his forehead, his body remained immobile, and rigid as he continued to stare into blank space.The two unfamiliar irises were vibrantly staring at nothingness."What's going on ..? Clara, whose attention was now caught by Kai's strange behavior, asked as she tried to touch him, but out of nowhere, his hand shot out and shoved Clara away.Clara stumbled back a little, her eyes widening as her mouth flew agape, she stepped back. Not out of surprise, but fear.I immediately rushed to her side and held her shoulder to stabilize her, but her eyes still had that shock in them as she pointed at his eyes. My brows knitted together as I sat her on a chair and walked back to the bed, Kai was still staring into blankness, my eyes were damp now as my lips trembled slightly. "Baby..." I placed my hand on his little shoulder, but the boy who had earlier Been staring into nothingness snapped his eyes to me, then he peeled my hands aw

Maverick"I'm telling you that what you're doing these days might just blow your cover, I mean was she really worth it? Moreover, haven't you always had things against werewolves?" Only one man dared to talk to me in that manner,Alex jaw clenched, glaring at me, with a yellow folder in hand, while his shoes tapped on the floor impatiently."You're right, I've got things against werewolves. Just not her." I replied to him with a straight face, then I leaned into the chair. He had called me earlier at the hospital to inform me of some trespassers that needed to be taken care of. I felt really reluctant to part with the boy and his mother in the hospital, but I had only left them because I was assured that he had already regained consciousness.And seeing this guy with two red eyes glaring at me, I couldn't help but chuckle. Alex, although was my assistant, he was also my only friend, so he knew when to be formal, in addition there was this strict side of him that went all out when

I tucked Kai who was still sound asleep in, and quickly went into the bathroom to wash up that day's stress. I feel so exhausted. I stepped in the bathroom, and stripped myself, stepping under the shower. I remained there for a good amount of time, just feeling the cold water running around my body. I wish Derek was alive to tell me something. To comfort me, to tell me that my baby is going to be alright. I should have asked Freya if she had any other ideas, but she went into hibernation as soon as I'm out of the hospital, so no matter how much I tried to communicate with her, it would only come out futile, since she was in deep sleep.Thinking back to the hospital, Clara had left when we were discharged by the doctor. Running into her was a fortune for me, I mean the doctor can't even explain a thing going on with Kai, I can't even bring myself to imagine what it would've been like, if Clara wasn't there, thanks to her I was able to maintain my sanity. I came out of the bathroom a
