Kain’s POVEvery time I close my eyes it starts out with a nightmare where I lose my love, Lilith.This time she falls over a high tower and I’m running to catch her but the floors turn into quick sand that sinks beneath me and I can’t reach her before I’m thrown out of my own dream.I wake up jump right up drench in my own sweat and with my drawn out wolf claws ripping into both sides of the bed.It takes a second for the new reality to sink in and I can calm myself again.The two day mark has already been reached, she should be back soon but something feels deathly wrong.The bond feels already weak from the large distance between us and even then I can feel bits of her own despair seeping through my own end.I can’t help but be on edge and paranoid constantly.Was she not successful in saving her brother?Whatever the reason of her sadness maybe, I will fix it when she gets back, all that matters is that she returns to me safe and sound without a single scar on her bodyI will rage
Lilith’s POV“Get away from me, you pervert!” I kick and scream at him desperately trying to keep more distance between me and this psychopath that’s too sick to realize just how much he’s lost his mind.All those years he had called me ‘Lili’ so fondly I begin to wonder if it had been me his eyes stared at with so much care of someone else.If the nickname little rose had been because my mother’s favorite flower was a rose.All those times she had just a passing thought of how weirdly interested in her was just in fact her instincts screaming at her to keep distance away from him, warning her that he would ruin her completely.“Get away!”Kain! Kain please help.I cry continuously begging him not to come even closer while silently praying Kain can hear me where ever he is.Arden’s rage returns again and he smacks me the other way trying to shut me up and he doesn’t stop with his assault attacking over and over again trying to get me to shut up.“You should love me and not tell me to
The sound of the loud slap takes me by surprise and the fact that it isn’t me this time.Arden strikes his accomplice across the face in a split second, in the exact moment the announcement rolls off her lips.She falls unto the ground clutching her cheek and looking up at Arden with utmost surprise equally not expecting such an actionBut he stares back at her fuming, if steam could puff out of a person’s ears no would be the perfect time for that.He visibly trembles from the emotions moving around inside him, but none of that is any of my concern at the momentThe news takes me off guard, it isn’t even the last thing I was expecting because the thought has never crossed my mind before.“I’m pregnant?” I mutter under my breath stuck in a daze.My hand falls down to my belly that I thought was bloated due to an illness.Inside me right now is a tiny person, a little version of a mix of Kain and me in one person?How could it be?Could it possibly be a mistake somewhere, maybe she had
Kain’s POV“Riverstone pack has looked down on us for the final time. They have injured our beta and gone as far as kidnapping the Luna and we will not be silent anymore, will not seat idly and take any more of their insults. Whoever dares cross our paths to victory or slanders our name will incur the wrath of Deathstone!” I yell out to the group of men before me, my army set and ready to be thrown into a fully fledge battle, waiting just at the borders of Arden’s pack.He has bitten more than he can chew this time angering not just me but everyone else and sadly for him the only leverage he has over me is gone.“Yes alpha!” they response is thunderous and echoes loudly.“Today we walk into battle but this time to finish what we started and make our enemies beg for mercy that will not be given, for our fallen brothers and for our own legacy to go down in time as the gretats pack in all Wolfdom!” Ivan steps up yelling as well.He leans against a cane to help him stand and walk with his
Kain’s POVI’ve finally found her, my mate but the sight of her sets off every bit of my anger I’ve been trying to put on check.Her face bruised and her clothes ripped to the point that she’s almost left bare and naked. Nothing matters anymore. My rage takes over me and all sane thoughts dissipate.I look at the fool I had tossed across the room desiring nothing more than to tear him apart into pieces of flesh lying around and feeding it to the dogs.“You bastard.” I seethe, seeing nothing more than red.I shift into my wolf in the next second lunging at him without restrictions.Or every scar on her skin I add five more on his, every bruise on her body five bones crack under the force of my attacks.I slash at him continuously with my claws while he screams in agony just barely managing to change into his wolf to have even a fighting chance but that changes nothing.He had a death wish the moment he decided to mess with my woman.He tries to attack back but it’s a puny attempt from
Jonah’s POV5 YEARS LATER…Hiding behind the pillar beautifully decorated with flowers by the fountain I stay hushed, pursing my lips together while still covering them with both my hands to stay hidden.I do this all the time and still she still seems to always easily find me when we play this insufferable game.Hide and go seek.An hour at it and she still hasn’t found me yet, which is the longest times he’s taken to find me.Which lead me to think that maybe, just maybe I’m the only one playing this damn game.The thought of just giving up seeps into my mind until I hear footsteps approaching from ahead and stay quiet again.The gentle sound of feet slowly approaching lets me know it’s a she-wolf. Months of training from Beta Ivan comes I perfectly handy in moments like this.Hopefully in a few more years I’ll be able to join brother-in law’s guard, that is if he will let me. My sister’s hold over him has dictated far too much in my life.It’s been years since I’ve fallen ill and n
Kain’s POV2 YEARS LATER…A lot has happened over the years, I’ve lost some gained some; most of it changed my life completely in ways I never knew I need.Now standing over the grave of a child that never got the chance to see the light of day I mourn it as I’ve always does, though I never got the chance to meet him for the split moment I knew of its existence where one of the best moments in my life.Even while everything around us burned and we were bruised the news of his arrival brought a smile to her lips like nothing else could.And though it’s taken more than a few years to get over our loss, we’re still taking small steps to get there.I drop a flower over the small grave.To little sesame, the name Lilith calls it, because it didn’t grow old enough to have a gender.A child’s laughter echoes from behind me while a little girl turns out of her hiding spot rushing for me.Her little feet don’t take her too far before she stumbles and falls face flat on the ground and burst int
LILITH’S POVThe loud pounding at my door is the last thing I need to hear today, especially not after this gloriously shitty week.The last thing I need right now are visitors. I’d finally managed to put Jonah, my brother, to sleep after his latest attack.After hooking him to a ventilator and watching his labored breathing finally settle into soft and well-paced slow breaths, I drop everything else I’m doing and march up to the front door, almost ripping out it’s hinges due to a bit too much wolf strength put in in my fit of annoyance.Well, we can fix that later…My wolf huffs within me, knowing that there’s a 70% chance we’re going to ignore it for weeks till it actually becomes a nuisance we can’t ignore.“What is it?” I scream out before looking at who it is.It only takes a moment to recognize twiddle dee and twiddle dum, A.K.A the Gregory twins; tall, huge, hunchbacked twins.Alpha Arden’s dogs.They stand, towering over me with almost a feet height difference while glaring ba

For some reason his words make me feel dizzy.The room spins and swirls around me like a dull illusion manufactured to twist my mind and unravel it.I’m lost in a hazy dream that I might forget all about the second I open my eyes again, but the dream has morphs into a never ending nightmare that feels way too real and taunts me.Hot tears prickle my eyes painful while I stare back at the mad man in front of me in horrified shock that steals my ability to even speak, or utter a sound and yet he’s smiling.Somehow he’s smiling in the middle of all this, in the middle of confessing his part in my parent’s death.I shake my head slowly choosing to doubt this reality that plays tricks on me.“No…” I whisper under my breath, denying it.“Yes.” He responds nodding his head firmly with a wide grin.“No!” I scream out suddenly feeling my entire reality crumble. “You’re lying. You’re saying that just to mess with me. You know that if that’s true that I’ll… that I’ll—“”“That you’ll never forgiv
My consciousness seeps into my body for the third time, I think in one night.This time my eyes don’t open at will though.My body feels too heavy, like logs are resting over each limb, and if they aren’t neither of them respond to the signals I tell them but I’m awake just unable to control my body.From whatever paralysis I’m having I can hear mumbling in the background that lets me know that I’m not alone.A female giggling from something.Must be that bitch and then a new voice, deeper and bolder.Finally my eyes open but very slowly and takes way too much from me causing me to groan from exhaustion.I can make out two figures that remain blurred from in vision while I try so desperately to look at them.“Ah, she’s awake.” The male voice speaks.I recognize his voice s Arden’s immediately.Rage feels me in the next second followed by the desire to fight back but I’m still paralyzed.Footsteps drawn closer and I’m lifted up from lying on the cold floor and put in a seating position
