Shannon’s POV“Is there anything that we haven’t covered yet?” Ricky asked me as we stood outside the front door, waiting to receive Alpha Robin and my mother who had announced their arrival last night.“I don’t think so, Ricky,” I answered. “We’ve gone over this sequence several times in the past couple of hours, I can now repeat your exact words from my memory. I don’t think there’s anything left to say, I assure you.” Ever since we got the news that Alpha Robin would be coming home, Ricky and his brothers had been putting in all efforts to make sure that their record was spotless, they didn’t want anything out of place so they spent the entire night trying to close every deal or spillage of work that they hadn’t settled yet. Despite how many times I assured them that their father wasn’t expecting them to be perfect, it had fallen on deaf ears and they kept on at it until they were satisfied with themselves when that was over, they made their way to my room, nearly forcing the doo

90Lucas felt himself being swept around by waves and he regained his consciousness. He found himself in a small local beach and after sitting up, he found Rae just by his side and he ran over to get her. He was glad to see that she was okay, but she was unconscious. She hit her head hard. Lucas, knowing that a village must be somewhere around the seashore, and since the seashore looks like it was recently used, he concluded to find the village to safe himself and Rae.When he was thinking of the exact route he would take, some fishermen came to the shore to fish. They were afraid when they saw Lucas with a woman who looked death, the position they found them made everything more complicated. (Lucas was crouching over Rae. A clueless person who think that he was strangling her).Lucas got into serious argument with them (you can form a small fight among them). Lucas was able to convince them when he proof to them that Rae was with him. (You're the only one that know how to do that). T
Author’s POVMaya's eyes suddenly widened as she realized one thing Lucas lived more than himself was his reputation and there was no way he was going to react rashly outside under the scrutiny eyes of everyone.“Lucas Dear…” she began and Lucas' rage grew, if possible.Regardless she took steps backwards before dying while flagging down an invite that looked so similar to the one on the others hand. “I was invited Lucas and it’s funny how poor your memory is becoming faint” Gm“You seem very careless to dare show your smelly ass here and then threaten me to keep you still”His attention was called so he nodded at Gunner to hold her still while he welcomed in guests“Well hello you both don’t look happy to see me” Maya said instead ignoring Lucas’s glare and Gunner’s question.Lucas would tell her to leave through clenched teeth abd would show her his dangerous stare but Laila would not listen, knowing fully well that Lucas would not lose control because of his business partners that
Isabelle's pov He quickly turned and saw me. "That business can't be discussed at home, I will see you at the office." He said and ended the call. Oh, it was a business conversation. "Honey, why were you standing behind me?" He asked with a little laugh. "Why would I be standing behind you, i was just heading downstairs then you turned and looked at me," I explained to him. "That’s not a problem." He laughed. "I hope you slept well?" He asked me and moved closer to me, rubbing my hair."Yes, I did," I replied, I wanted to pick up the courage to tell him about the pregnancy but I couldn't. I need to tell him soon enough before it's too late. "Let's go have dinner, we haven’t eaten all day, and that's not good for your health." He said and held my hand, we both stood up and moved to the dining room. He is such a sweet man, if only he hadn't left me that night all these wouldn’t have happened. I would have been in the sweetest, most beautiful marriage with no misunderstandings.
Three days ago. Lucas could feel himself losing his mind and he hated feeling like this but there was nothing he could do at this point other than pray for a silver lining in the sky. He had been waiting for this moment for a rather long time now and it wasn’t forthcoming. Looking for Rae was driving him crazy and he didn’t want to fill his mind with terrible thoughts about what could’ve possibly happened to her, that would mean he was losing faith and he didn’t want that to happen. He had hired a couple of private investigators and placed a huge price for whoever would be the first man to track down Rae. He didn’t mind paying top dollar for the information he sought, she was worth it and more. “Do you think we’re going about this the right way?” Lucas asked as he stared at the screen. He had been through this same process several times over and he hadn’t managed to find any clue yet which was rather frustrating. “You think we’ve been barking up the wrong tree for several days
Lucas’ eyes went wide as he heard Rae yell on the phone and he instantly knew that she had been caught by someone. Unlike himself, Lucas panicked and he began to scream into the phone. “If you touch a strand of her hair, you will have me to contend with, I swear on my life!” Lucas screamed. “Return her to me or I will rip off your heads, this is a promise!” Lucas held back the phone and stared at the screen only to find out that the call had ended and he had been yelling to himself for about a minute. He knew Rae was in danger and something bad was going to happen to her if he didn’t take any action right now. “Guards!” Lucas yelled as he slammed his fists on the table. “I need someone in here this instant!” The door to his study was instantly opened and a guard rushed in. “You called for me, sir.” “I need you to mobilize every guard we’ve got within the next hour, we’re heading out on an operation and time isn’t on our side. We need to leave before it’s too late.”“With all du
