LILITH’S POV:“Rebecca.” He growls inhumanely.Rebecca’s eyes are instantly filled with panic the moment their eyes clash.In an immediate attempt to put an end to me while she can, she quickly turns to me, releasing her claws and getting ready to rip out my heart in that second while he’s still feet away.Before her hand makes contact, he’s suddenly behind her in a swift second, grabbing on that very arm and tossing her all the way back into the room with so much ease and power.Her body flips in the air before she crashes into the already brittle wall easily.It takes only a second for her to get up on her feet again, royally pissed, and her irises morphing into that of her wolf’s, just like Kain.She seethes now.“I’m sick and tired of you ruining my life, brother. The title of Alpha should be mine!” She yells from frustration and getting emotional.Kain, on the other hand, changes his stance, purposefully shielding me away from her in the process but his entire body visibly trembl
LILITH’S POV“How is he?” I ask the pack doctor.She leans away from him after minutes of observing him and humming to herself, while taking down notes.Her lack of words has constantly put me on edge and I can’t hold it anymore.Funny enough, I hadn’t been this impatient when she had stitched me up and put in new bandages. I hadn’t been impatient all through the time when the resident of the burnt down building had all been transported to an emergency location.I was calm, sitting right next to Kain quietly and watching over him.She hums again, looking over every single thing she’s written since examining him, nodding to herself.“After close examination, there’s no doubt about it… he’s asleep.”There’s a moment’s pause.“What?”“The Alpha must have been exhausted for a while and suddenly undergoing all that stress, plus a building collapsing on him must have accelerated his fatigue.”“What about the scratches?”“Shallow wounds, should heal in a few days.” I let out a sign of reli
LILITH’S POVA lot has happened and I had almost forgotten about that two timing bitch.“She said there was a crash and you were both injured and while trying to escape, the room came down on you. She panicked and went to look for help.”Of course she’d spin some stupid story to make herself seem like a victim.“Though thinking about it some more now… I wonder how you wound up being chased by Rebecca in a different room” He muses to himself now.At least it seems like he’s about to figure out that there’s been some sort of foul play.“I wonder the same thing.” I play along.Telling anyone what had happened won’t change much of it though. I mean, I’m sure she has her reasons to be a deceitful bitch as well.“Where is she?” I want to pay her a little visit myself.***I leave his room with the directions he’s given me in mind with one simple thought in mind; payback.But what can I do to get back at her for stabbing me in the back? What can I do that would really hurt her in the worst
Trigger Warning!Kain’s POVI don’t need to knock on the door or gently push it open, seeing as I own every inch of this place down to the specks of dust sitting on her table.She sits upright once I force my way right into the room, startled by the strength at which the door swings open.The guard I’ve brought with me walks right in swiftly as well, closing it behind us and standing by my side quietly.“A-Alpha Kain.” She stammers, sweating as soon as her eyes fall on me while she frantically twiddles the tips of her hair.I drop on a comfort chair right by her bed side with a bored expression.“What brings you here?” She smiles awkwardly, trying so hard to hide the fear and discomfort written all over her.The fear that leaves me thrilled. At least she knows what she should be afraid of.“It’s been a while, hasn’t it…”“Ariel.” She offers.“Yes…”I don’t give a shit about her name, what I do care about is the fact that Lilith was on the brink of tears just outside her door.“Yes it
LILITH’S POV I look around the room for some reason, panicking because this isn’t just anyone’s room but belongs to Alpha Kain.He knocks on the window again when I hesitate to step closer.So I do, slowly pulling he window open.“Alpha Arden, what are you—‘”“Lili!” He pulls me in for a tight hug, suddenly squeezing against my injury and taking me off guard with his bubbly mood.Before I can wince from the pain, he pulls away, darting past me into the room, living my biggest fear.My panic levels rise again, especially as he goes around touching every single thing he sees before dropping on the bed, while I can’t say anything to stop him.“How is my favorite girl?” He begins, getting comfortably on the bed, specifically on Kain’s spot.I feel a vein twitch in my forehead.“I’m okay. How did you know I was here?”“Oh, I send just a few more people to watch you just in case.” He says casually while leaning backwards against the soft plushy pillows and sighing with content.“You hired
LILITH’S POV:Rebecca had been unsuccessful in fining the whereabouts of the blood scroll, especially given the short time she had on her hands, but I won’t be.Once Kain’s steps out of the room, I spring up from the bed instantly with one mission in mind.I change into some clothes that allow easy movement and leave the room in the direction for the training ground.Sure enough, all the able-bodied guards are already gathered for their morning routine exercises and one on one sparring match to strengthen themselves. Though, the number of people participating has dropped drastically as most are still injured, still the number is still large enough.If I want to get battle sequence information, the best source is through the workforce, getting closer to them and losing their guard till information spills easily from their mouths.I arrive just in the middle of Ivan addressing them.He easily flips his chosen opponent on his back seconds after he charges at him in only a split second w
LILITH’S POVI follow Ivan down to the basement immediately after.It’s humid and thick with perspiration and a damn awful rotting smell to back it up. I assume it’s due to years on negligence.It’s a new building Kain hadn’t bothered to pay attention to until the fire had forced an emergency visit that is starting to look permanent.Even I don’t have a room yet, though I’m starting to think Kain made it that way on purpose.We walk down a dark path lit by a few flames torches, dodging the thick mesh of webs hanging about.I silently pray to myself that we run into any one on this visit.The last thing I need is a heart attack down here or letting anyone else discover my fear of spiders. Thankfully, we don’t until we reach her cell.Dirty and grimy, with lack of sunlight. It’s worse than the cells in the other place, a part of me feels a bit of pity.She looks up once we stop right in front of her, letting me see her tired eyes and sunken features.“Lilith?” she mutters my name tiredl
LILITH’S POVKain towers over me and… Ivan — frankly the both of us, with dead emotionless eyes. The usual expression but this time, I’m slightly more nervous than ever.If he ruins my plans, I’d have to opt to flirting with sweaty men who mostly always want something out of anything they give.Ivan, on the other hand, reverts to this annoyed statue behind me. Standing tall and firm in the presence of his Alpha while suppressing the desire to glare holes into my head.“Kain.” I smile sweetly, putting on enough of my charm.He raises a brow.“How are you? You look very dashing this morning.” I begin as though I hadn’t woken up while he was in the middle of getting dressed hours ago.He says nothing, being typical Kain with eyes telling me to get straight to the point while wondering what is up with me.His eyes briefly move to Ivan standing behind me, sporting a very brief frown, which he disguises as his usual resting-bitch face, all before he finally responds.“You don’t have to do a
