Suspension
Chapter Nine - Suspension
Reyna’s POV
It had been two days since Balor Bloodstone had been in my office. Two days since I had first seen the evidence he brought forward. Two days since I filed a warrant to gain access to the footage from all his businesses in the city.
We had put out an arrest warrant for the man in the video. He was last spotted leaving the bus station in Montreal, but the trail ran cold after that. And I felt like I had fallen back into the rut I was so eager to get out of for the last three years.

The training room was filled with pack members cheering us on.“Your move John, make it count.” I taunted. He gave me a wary look as he took a moment to think through his attack. Then, he faked right as he lunged forward. I moved to my right, grabbing his arm and flipping him over, pinning him down. He let out a loud groan as he slammed into the mats. His breathing was heavy as he tried to gain the upper hand.“You done?” I laughed in amusement. He tried to push me off again before his arms fell to the

The Deadly One Traps
Chapter Twelve - TrapsReyna’s POVWho knew a week could feel like an eternity. I honestly can’t remember that last time I had ever been so bored in my life.The longer I was left here without answers, the more anxious I was becoming.My mind continuously ran through different scenarios. And I knew being suspended was no one fault but my own, but I'd be damned if I let others control what I found suspicious or deemed important.

The Deadly One Backfired
Chapter Thirteen - BackfiredBalor’s POVReyna held her composure on the outside, but her heart was telling a different story. Her chin was held high, and for forced herself to stand in a relaxed position. Arms crossed in front of her chest, her one knee slightly bent. Her black trench coat hid most of her outfit. The only thing visible was her combat boots. Her chocolate brown hair was frizzed by the cold winter wind that never seemed to let up in this city. The tall buildings acted as a tunnel guiding the harsh winds from Lake Ontario through the city's busy streets.I forced myself to look away, the papers on my desk becoming the most important thing in the room as I tried to stop the thoughts of her invading my clarity. I picked up a folder and opened it. It was the report with the reasons why Detective Reyna Killi
The Deadly One Surprises
Chapter Fourteen - SurprisesKai’s POVI’ll never forget the first time I came to Godric. It was nothing I had to imagine hell to be like. The stories about the Underworld were just that, stories. Maybe it was the dragon part of me that found comfort in the never-ending darkness and warmth of this world or how free it felt to always blend in with the night sky and dance with the northern lights.But this place felt more like my home than Caspian ever did. The man, if you could even call him that, who tolerated my existence, made me feel like a speck of dirt beneath his foot. But here, I was never made to feel like that, quite the opposite actually. And the two people who helped me who raised me these last five years. We’re the closest thing I had to a Mother and Father.&n

The cold winter air made my cheeks flush and my fingers numb as it nipped at them, making me want to immediately stick my hands back into the warmth of my pockets.Every winter, I had to purchase new gloves because mine always seemed to get misplaced. It was a terrible habit, one I regretted in moments like this. I made a mental note to get new gloves after work today.I pushed open the door to the station, the phones ringing and the chatter of voices filling up the station walls. It felt good to be back in this place. Two weeks away from work was too long. I couldn't say I regretted it, though, because that would be a lie.

A woman stood behind him screaming, telling him to let her go.They were all in a small kitchen; a small dining table was thrown against the fridge. Chairs smashed into pieces—Reyna's blood dripping from her forehead. A gun was on the ground beside her, her phone screen completely destroyed.“You’re the one who's nuts.

The Deadly One AWOL
Chapter Seventeen - AWOL Reyna's POV The shock of what had happened was the only way I could describe how I was feeling. It was the only way I could make myself believe why I had agreed to what Balor demanded I do. I lied in my police report making it out to be a burglary gone wrong. My mother's statement matched my own, with a few extra details added to ensure that it wasn't just by chance that I got here as they broke in. I looked at the broken furniture my mother, and I destroyed to make a more convincing scene. Her kitchen table turned over, and papers were scattered across the kitchen floor. A few picture frames were broken, along with a few mugs. Creed had been outside when this all happened, thankfully. Ivan forced my mother to put him out.
