"From this moment henceforth, you mean nothing to me," he spat, his eyes bloodshot as he stared deep into my eyes. "I, Killian Dimitri, Alpha of Crescent Star pack, hereby reject you, Elena Salvador as my mate and future Luna," he affirmed, sending stabs of pain through my already torn heart, slicing it into a million tiny pieces. "As for the punishment for your crime, henceforth, you are no longer a member of this pack, and that means you can never show your face anywhere around here anymore," My whole life was shattered in a minute, the earth had opened up and for some reason, it kept dragging me down with it and no matter how hard I tried to stay afloat, nothing could stop me from drowning. Except for the tiny little life beating inside me, my hands unconsciously fell to my stomach because unknown to Alpha Killian, I was carrying his child. ** A week ago, Alpha killian had discovered that I was his mate after years of fruitless search, nothing had ever felt so right in my life. But then, doom came knocking on my door the night he was going to announce our union to everyone. That same night, a dreadful crime was executed with my name pinned on it.
View MoreElena's POV.We all swiftly turned around to see him standing a few feet away from us.Aragorn. He had a glass of wine in his hand and a smug smile on his face as his gaze carefully traveled from each one of us to the other.Now being aware of his evil feats, he irritated me more than he ever did. "You!" Killian gritted angrily, he made to rush at him but I was quick enough to hold him back. "We don't need this right now, Killian," I whispered."And it's certainly a pleasure to see you again, my little love-struck Elena," he croaked out a totally ugly laughter. I was nearly pushed to puke by merely hearing him mention my name."You know I saw so much potential in you, I hoped to take you under my wing when you have upheld this mission, imagine my disappointment seeing you fail woefully," "That's rich coming from a failure himself," I fired back at him.He chuckled amusedly and turned towards Darius. "Oh and there goes the estranged sidelined lover, now tell me why you are helping
Elena's POV."Do we even know where we are going?" Darius whispered through gritted teeth as we followed the group of slaves to an unknown direction.Following Killian's order, we had ruffled our clothes to look tattered and disguised as dirty slaves to mix with the rest of the slaves. But he never specified the next step after that, hence Darius's frustration."The slaves serve everyone, surely some of them to Aragorn's chambers, we just have to be patient," Killian's whispered and a wide smile broke out on my face. Killian will always remain the smartest man I know. "Wipe that smile off your face Elena, a slave should not be smiling," he snapped at me. I was tempted to burst into laughter seeing how hard he was trying to stay furious at me, but given the situation, I tried to hold it back in.Suddenly, a strict looking woman walked up to us with a known frown on her face. I could tell she was the chief maid, that was always their facial expression. "You," She suddenly pointed at G
Elena's POV. Killian's watchful eyes never left mine for a second as we raced forward, the rogues which seemed to have multiplied in number were consistently chasing after us, their heavy breaths almost fanning our backs. The faster we ran, the more they kept up the energy with us. Suddenly, I heard a loud shrieking growl echo through the air. The voice couldn't belong to the rogues, neither was it from Darius or Green who were actively ahead, racing forward. It was Killian. One of the rogues had caught up with him. I swiftly turned around to see him struggling with the rogue. It was the most horrible scene to watch. I needed to do something to help him, I had already stopped running as I contemplated on the next step to take to help him. Suddenly, his gaze ran over mine and he let out a growl, I knew he was trying to signal me to move forward but I wasn't ready to leave him behind. "Get the hell away from here Elena, continue moving, I'll catch up with you soon," I heard his vo
The dark eerie route kept drawing darker as we walked through, our footsteps no longer sounded as heavy as they had been during the day.I could tell everyone was at the edge, a tiny bit of fear lingering in our minds. Killian was not an exception, despite how highly spirited he posed to be, I could still sense the tense air around him.Of course, he knew Darius was right, the lane was dangerous and it was only a matter of time before rogues started lurking at us. He was well aware that we should have camped quietly at the point where Darius had suggested, but he was too held up with anger and jealousy to admit it. I turned around slightly to see Darius walking behind us, though he kept his distance. I had thought he would retreat since Killian had already let him off the hook but he didn't, and I knew it was because of me. I could tell he was enduring Killian's arrogance towards him for the sake of me and the kids. I couldn't be more grateful for the man that he is. Suddenly, a str
Elena's POV.The intense silence that hovered around us as we walked through the thick bush could be cut effortlessly with a butter knife.Everyone stayed to themselves and said no single word to the other. Killian made sure I walked side by side with him, though it felt more like punishment as he didn't turn to spare me a glance since we embarked on the journey.Somehow, I hoped that things could go back to the way they were when I had initially returned. I missed his admiration and the endless shower of love and attention. I wanted to have the loving Killian that I used to know back to himself and not this cold Killian who had almost become unrecognizable. I was tired of the feud already, how much I wanted to reach out and kiss him so hard. But I was scared of the outcome, would he push me away, yell at me, or actually reciprocate the kiss?My thoughts was suddenly interrupted by a rustling sound behind me. I swiftly turned around only to see Darius advancing towards me with a war
Elena's POV.Killian drew away from me, turning around, and started heading out. Green, the lead warrior who I suppose was going with us quickly ran after him, leaving Darius and I behind."Darius, you can't keep defiling his orders, Killian has quite a temper and he's dangerous when he's angry, please for your sake," I pleaded."He is an asshole, you know that," Darius spat and I chuckled."I can't agree that he isn't, but he is my mate, so..."Have you really made up your mind to move on with him?" His next words hit me hard across the ears.I racked through my head for a suitable reply but my head seemed to have gone numb for a while, I felt stuck in between thick layers."Elena, c'mon, walk beside me," Killian's voice suddenly snapped me out of my trance. That was exactly the rescue that I needed.I casted Darius a quick glance before hurriedly walking towards Killian.I was overwhelmed by his outburst, I couldn't believe he wanted to walk beside me, why then has he been hostile t
Elena's POV."Stop spewing nonsense, you aren't even fit to leave the ward yet," Killian spat and I couldn't help but chuckle dryly."Is that what you think? Well, what do I expect from someone who has diligently avoided me for the past few days," "Elena, I don't need you to be stubborn about this,""I made the deal with Aragorn, I need to be there too, it will be a lot of advantage," "Elena...""You can't stop me from doing this Killian," I quickly cut him off.For a moment, he stood still, staring blankly at me without saying a word. I matched his gaze with a more serious one, making sure my determination was evident enough for him to see. He suddenly drew out a deep sigh and ruffled his hair. "I need you to have it in mind that if you are coming with me, then I'm not responsible for you, I have no concern for your safety," His words were like a sharp dagger driven painfully through my chest. His eyes were void of emotions indicating that he meant every bit of his words.His col
Elena's POV.The early morning sun rays penetrating into the room through the window and hitting my eyes propped me to push my eyelids slowly open until my eyes were wide open.Thanks to the constant medicine and ointments that the healer has been shoving down my throat every second, I felt very energetic and no pain was detected. Though there was still one part of me that ached so badly.My heart. It ached everytime I remembered Killian, he hasn't returned since the last time that he left here. It felt like he has abandoned me to my faith. The last time that he was here, he had confessed his undying love for me, I couldn't help but wonder if it still remained that way or something has changed his mind?I had no idea what he was up to, and each time I asked the healer, she always flashed me a smile and assured me that everything was fine, but I could tell that it wasn't.I needed answers desperately, I needed to know if he had stayed true to his promise and forgave Darius, I also ne
Killian's POV."Is it true?" My mother suddenly blocked me through a corner immediately I walked into the house.I hadn't intended to leave Elena but I needed to take care of things, it was high time I put an end to Aragorn and restore her happiness as well as mine but rescuing our children. It would have been long solved if she had spoken up earlier but all the same, I was willing to show her a true indication of why she should trust me."Is it true that Elena was here on a mission to kill you?" She spoke up again."Mother...""And she's having an affair with the Alpha of Greenwoods pack?" She cut me in abruptly."Wait what? Who fed you this information?" I chuckled amusedly."Elena took a death stab for me, she risked her life to save mine, does that portray the characteristics of someone who wants me dead?" I queried.I watched as her eyelids twitched in confusion. "But Aria reported to me that Elena tried to kill you with the help of her lover, Darius?" "Oh Aria never gets tired
