"What is it, Kay? You don't look so well." Agnar asked. He tossed the document he was reading on the couch and came over. He snaked his hands around my waist. I tried ignoring the warmth and sparks I felt from the area his hand touched."Nothing, just a slight headache," I quickly replied. "Did you take your medications today?" he stared at me with worry written all over him. "I forgot," I replied. "Sure, you did; come on," he said, dragging me along. I willingly followed him; he grabbed my medication from the shelf and handed it over to me to drink. "You should rest," he said to me, and immediately I wanted to tell him that I still had a lot to do. "But.... ""Luna is off duty for today," he said, covering me up with the duvet, "Fine" I replied and I slowly dozed off. I woke up a few hours later to see him still seated at the same spot I met him when I came into the room. I was surprised that the room was awfully quiet. I wonder where Chatterbox had disappeared to. I was
It was a little late in the evening. I had been looking for a way to save Agnar from what I had to do. I mean, I would gladly end his stupid life, but it would only destroy everything I had worked for and my chances of finding out who was behind this whole mess. I was standing in the mirror, staring at the gorgeous figure in the mirror, the dress hugging my body, vividly defining my curves, and my skin tone complimenting the silver. "If I end up committing murder, then you should be held responsible," Agnar whispered in my ear while hugging me from behind. "Are you planning to?" I was asked wondering if found out. "You look this beautiful, and you expect me not to kill any man that dares look at you." "You wouldn't" I sighed in relief. "Ok, but I will poke their eyes out, that I can assure you." I gave him a hard stare and he kissed my cheeks. I felt my skin burn with pleasure, and my cheeks look more red than usual. Thank goddess, the make-up I was wearing hid it pretty well. I
"Kay!" Agnar called out, walking towards me while Rex trailed behind."Kay!!" he called yet again. "Over here," I replied while still watching the Lycan prince walk away. Talking with him stirred up emotions within me that I had thought we were dead. "Is that the prince?" Agnar asked, wearing a frown. "Yeah, he seems like a nice guy.""Oh wow, but just be careful, he is dangerous" he responded, looking at me astonished."What are you doing out here? We should get back inside," he said. I knew I had been gone for far too long, and it was only a matter of time before someone came looking for me. "I needed some fresh air," I replied. Rex stood there like a statue, trying not to be noticed. I had always meant to ask Agnar why on earth he was alone most of the time, but never got the opportunity to. "Come on, baby, it's time to go meet with the Lycan prince," he said, stretching his hands to me. I grabbed hold of it and made our way into the hall. I could feel Celine's laser eyes o
I was sipping a cold cup of milkshake while I listened to Celine and Gertrude screaming in pain; there was no music as soothing as their cries. I have never felt so alive as I felt hearing their pain. I could hear Agnar and Rex speaking to the pack doctor about what happened, and he asked them to bring me in. "Kay""Hey, how are they?" I asked him, faking being as confused as he was. "They are in a lot of pain.""I wonder what could have gone wrong since I ate from the same plate." "Speaking of that, could you come inside? I want the doctor to look at you," he said."Sure," I said. I stood up while taking a long sip from my milkshake. The doctor went on and on, asking me series of questions. What he found confusing was the fact that I ate from the same plate but I was not in pain. "If only we could get a hold of the plate of food, this would have been resolved a little quicker.""What do you think might have caused it?" Agnar questioned the doctor."There are a lot of things tha
I almost had a heart attack when Therese said she saw who laced the food with Wolfsbane. I know it was all shades of wrong, but I kind of wish I had let her die. "One of the maids that helped in the kitchen; it was my first time seeing her in the pack house.""You saw the maid do it?" I asked a little confused. "I didn't catch her in the act though, but I just have a gut feeling that it is her." "Did you know?" I said, slowly nodding my head. "Yes Luna" "Therese, it's almost dinner time." "Oh, I completely forgot. We will talk more about this later Luna; dinner won't make itself," she said, running off. I sighed in relief, when she was out if sight, to think she had caught me in the act made me almost go into a stroke. * * * * * *The rest of the week went by so quietly and uneventfully. Gertrude and Celine were still licking their wounds, while I went by my Luna's duties without a worry. I barely see Agnar as Celine has him wrapped around her tiny fingers like a puppet.
To think Agnar suggested the vacation because of his mistress made me want to end his miserable life a lot quicker than I had planned, but then I knew there was no winning this game without dabbling my feet in the mud first. It was about time I started thinking about my exit plans. I have been quite busy, planning the pack mating ceremony and tracing the money allocated to the school pack that had suddenly gone missing. I was at my office speaking to the designer on the phone about the theme of the ceremony when I heard the door open. "I will talk to you later, please," I quickly said, and I dropped the phone. "Is everything okay?""Why, can't I be in your office?" he said with both hands behind him."No, no, that's not what I meant; you are welcome," I said as he moved over to where I was sitting down on the other side of the table. He sat down on the table facing me. "How is the preparation looking?" he asked."Everything is fine; I was on the phone with the designer when you
A black power bike is a right of passage in the organization; each assassin is given a black bike, on the night of your initiation into the family, we only differentiate one bike from the other with the numbers written on it."Is there something written at the corner?" I asked Cole, who was still busy looking at the bike. "Something, like a name?" He said, I was silently praying that I would be wrong, but when he wasn't forthcoming with the reply, I grew impatient watching him search for it at the wrong places. I hurriedly moved closer, and in one glance I saw the number written on it. I gasped, realizing that I wasn't just right; but it was the ghost I thought I would never see again. "How did you know about the number?" Agnar asked. His stare was as confusing as ever. But I was too dumbstruck to say a word. "Is something wrong?" he asked. "Luna Katya, you look flustered," Alina pointed out. "I'm fine; I'm just not feeling myself today," I said, trying to cover up my tracks. "
"Kay" "Kay!" I heard a faint voice calling me from a distance; it sounded familiar, but I was totally out of it to place the voice. "Kay!!" It came again, and I opened my eyes to a brightly lit room, a little too bright to keep my eyes open. And I quickly shut it back. "Doctor," I faintly heard the same voice speaking to whomever it was. I tried opening my eyes again, but the light coming from the torchlight the person staring down at me was holding penetrated my eyes. I tried covering my eyes with my hand, but it stung instead."She will be fine; we have flushed her system, it's a miracle she survived it, but she is out of harm's way now". "Where am I?" I asked in a low tone. I had no idea what was going on, but I could feel my body aching all over. "Thank you, doctor." the voice said, ignoring me or maybe not hearing me. "Doctor?" I turned to see a man wearing a white cloth leave the room. When my eyes adjusted to my surroundings, Agnar was staring down at me. "Thank goddess,
I heaved a sigh of relief when I saw him walk through that door, looking so lethal. Sheila tried escaping, but I quickly shot her in the leg, while Hayden and his men devoured every last one of them except Zack."You keep destroying my stuff, Hayden. I'm going to make you pay," he barked, looking at the damage done to the property."I'm counting on it, Zack; you should have stayed gone when you ran, but you dare show your stupid face here," he barked at him."That throne is mine," Zack yelled at him."Says the illegitimate son; go blame your mother if you need someone to blame," Hayden yelled back at him."How dare you!" Zack barked. I heard from a reliable source that Zack was the first son of the former Lycan king, but it was just meant to be a fling. Zack's mom seduced the then-Lycan king, who wasn't married at the time, and he slept with her.The Fling lasted for a while, but the Lycan king found his mate and kicked Zack's mom out of the palace, but she was pregnant at the momen
It had been a week after the whole drama, and things were finally getting back to normal. Tessa had a hard time adjusting, but she is fine now. My real parents moved in with us, and we have been bonding well. I'm in my last trimester and it could happen any time now, honestly, I'm kind of scared. Hayden went after Sheila and Zack, but that sneaky bastard got wind of it and escaped the country. As satisfying as it would have been to watch him die, all the same, he is out of our lives now till he shows his ugly head again. The only problem is that Hayden increased our security again; each time there is an attack on any of us, he ends up getting more security. It's frustrating watching the whole property filled with more security than actual occupants. I was allowed to go out before now, but these days I'm just stuck in here like I'm in prison. Hayden wasn't at home, and I was getting tired of staying home already. I picked up my phone, wore the necklace he got me, and stashed some
I held Tessa in my arms as she continued crying, holding onto me so tightly. "Hush now, honey, it's fine now," I said to her, gently patting her hair. Hayden's men shot the bastard a couple of times just to make sure he was dead. I took Tess back into the house and to her room. She laid down on her bed, and I turned to leave, but she grabbed my hands. "Tess, honey, you should take a rest," I said to her. "I don't want to be alone," she whispered while holding onto my hand. I sat back on her bed, brushing the hair off her face. "I will kill every single one of them before they lay a finger on you," I said, holding her gaze. "Kay," she whispered as tears formed in her eyes, gently trickling down on the bed. "I will be right outside if you need me," I whispered into her eyes, and she nodded, smiling at me. I smiled back and made my way out of the room. I went into the room, dropping my bag in the room. I took off the 2-inch heel I was putting on. I was about to pull out the gun;
AGNARS POVI have been troubled ever since I saw Kay. I don't know what troubles me more—the fact that my jealousy made me want to kill her or the fact that she is pregnant.I was a fool for kicking her out. I guess karma is indeed a bitch. There has never been a dull moment in this bloody pack. "What am I doing? I don't have time for regrets," I scolded myself.I shouldn't have seen her; seeing her has triggered something deep within me, and I can't seem to quench it. My head keeps going on a rollercoaster, and it's becoming exhausting."I need to keep myself busy," I quickly said, getting off my chair. I picked up my phone and made my way out of my office, heading towards my quarters. I wanted to get my keys from my room and probably go for a ride.It's the best way to get your mind off things. I got into my room and picked up the key from the counter, then headed out of the room.I made my way out of the room and was heading towards the parking lot when my phone began ringing.I f
When I woke up the next morning, I was feeling a little feverish and had severe pain in my tummy. I was scared at first that maybe the dream I had yesterday wasn't just any dream but a premonition, but I have never been the superstitious type, so I waved it off."It's just stress," I told myself several times. "Hey, sweetie, you are awake. How is my baby?" Hayden said the moment he stepped out of the bathroom. "I don't know," I snapped at him and made to get off the bed. "Come on, baby," he said, grabbing me from behind. "I know I have been terrible to you these past few days; I promise, I will make it up to you," he said, kissing my neck. "Promise?" I said I don't know but I couldn't stay mad at him for long. "Sure baby" "Well, you can start by dropping me off at the hospital," I said, disappearing into the bathroom before he could respond. I grabbed my toothbrush and paste, then set to work. When I was done, I quickly freshened up. I came out of the bathroom to see him dres
I was bored at home, but didn't know what else to do, I have strolled the house a couple of times, more than I could count; nothing was appealing to watch on television, and Hayden wasn't home yet. I tried calling a couple of times, and it went straight to voicemail. It was like the forces of the universe were working against me today. I tried calling Ben to find out what happened, and that was when he said something about some stupid meetings he had. I asked when the meeting would be over but he said it might run till midnight. I immediately hung up as it wasn't what I wanted to hear. I have no idea if it was my pregnancy hormones that were working, but I'm kind of tired of sitting around. I don't care where but I should go do something fun, and it's not in this damn house.I stormed into the house to go upstairs only to find Mom lying down on the couch, looking downcast."Mom, are you okay?" I asked her, wondering why her face looked like that. The last I checked I knew she didn't
AGNARS POVI, Cole, and a few of my men trailed carefully behind him; the last thing we wanted was to make a mistake, and he would notice that he had been followed. Thank goodness he is in pain, so he would be so concentrated on it that he wouldn't even bother picking up our scent. At some point, we were scared he might decide to go treat himself at the hospital first before anything because honestly, he is in a pretty bad shape. It was a damn long walk, in the woods but seeing him in front of a big mansion made it all worth it. We stood there in hiding, waiting for someone to open the gates for him, as he continued ringing the bell. When he felt like no one was coming, he banged on the gate a couple of times, he stood at the gates for a few minutes. Then gate flew open, but I heard the intruder whimpering in pain. He was clearly scared, He slowly moved back while a man wearing a black cap and putting on a black suit came out of the gate with three men standing behind him. I c
HAYDEN'S POVI had a meeting with some of our stakeholders this afternoon. I hurried up as I dressed up to leave the house. Kay was fast asleep, and I didn't want to wake her up. Lately, she has been having a difficult time with the pregnancy and I intend to make things as easy as possible. I raided one of their makeshift bases, and I didn't find out much from there, but my guys are onto something big; it's only a matter of time before it blows up. I was hurrying out of the house that morning when I noticed Kay's mom was on the phone talking to whomever. I wasn't paying attention to what she was saying until she said, I can't wait to have him fuck her silly. Thank goodness Lycans have super-hearing abilities. I stood there wondering what the fuck I just heard, but what made me uncomfortable was when Kay's dad was in the same room talking to a child he kept referring to as his baby. "My Prince, we need to leave now if we are to meet up," Ben said to me, waking me up to reality.
AGNAR'S POVI heard a crashing sound from the floor I was lying down on. I turned around, and the car that just drove into the fuel station ran into my car.I got off the floor, only to discover that some of my men were wounded and that my car was bashed in more places than I can count.I became pissed, wondering what piece of shit ran into my car. I went over to the car that hit us, and there was only one person in the car, but the person was already dead.I don't know if what happened now was huge enough to kill him; there were patches of bruises all over his body, but on closer inspection, the wounds didn't look fresh.My gaze turned to his legs, and it was tied up. This isn't what I was thinking, right? I looked around, hoping to see who set this up, but I didn't see anyone."The game is on Tomas," I whispered to myself."Clear this out," I ordered my men. * * * * * * * * * * * *I fell on the bed the minute I entered the room, and I was exhausted thanks to the bastard that pull
