This chapter is dedicated to the reader who asked me about Killian. Please, if you have any questions, anything that you don't understand or are left in vague in, leave your questions, they might be answered in chapters hehe. I am always open for requested chapters (Special chapters) as well, so don't hesitate to ask. How did you feel about this chapter? And what are your thoughts about what Killian wants to do? And about Lia initially being Killian's mate, why do you think that she never felt it? Don't forget to vote, comment, and leave a review.
Lia:“Madeline, what on Earth are you doing?” I asked, laughing at the woman who was wrapping my sheets around her as I tried to work. The woman has been doing so for the past hour, dancing around the bedroom as she sang to the stereo which was blasting so loud that I could only suspect that all the neighbors on the three kilometer radios could hear us.“I am doing what you are not, having fun, enjoying the night instead of working, and…”“Maddie, come on, leave the woman alone.” Donatello said, entering the bedroom which had the door wide open. He looked at me, and I looked down at the desk, noticing that Madeline turned the music off. He nodded at her to walk out of the room, leaving the two of us alone together. The man and I never really had a conversation, a full one, on our own, and to know that he wanted to talk to me now only scared me, especially since I knew that he hated my family for thinking that they killed his children. “How are you feeling, Lia?” He asked, breaking m
Ezra:“Hey,” I said, smiling at my beauty when I entered the bedroom.She smiled, getting up from my desk where she was working on whatever sketches she was working on. She walked toward me, and I wrapped my arms around her, hugging her tightly, kissing her cheek. Lia purred, her wolf somewhat taking control of her actions, and though I wasn’t stupid as not to know that her wolf wouldn’t have done so unless she was genuinely happy, I chose to not dwell on the topic more than necessary. “Sorry, I didn’t know that you came, I would have come to greet you by the door.” She said, making me smile. Her soft side was one that I loved, and the respect that she showed only told me how much she was true about what she was doing. A person who was respectful was one that I respected back, loving dealing with them, and Lia was exactly that. Both respectful and beautiful, inside and out.“I know, baby girl. I would have called you but I figured that you would either be busy or resting, and either
Lia: I sat on the edge of the bed as Ezra showered. His words played in my head, and I couldn’t help but let out a sigh as I massaged my temple. On one side, I had his father to deal with and not to mention, all the shit that the two of us were initially dealing with. Whether it was families, our marriage, or even the man who we called an enemy. My heart raced as I heard him turning off the water faucet, and just the idea of him being angry with me stirred me. The man and I may not have our fairytale that we would be telling the world about. But the two of us knew that if we wanted to, we would be having a story to tell. Provided, of course, that we made it last. He walked out of the bathroom with nothing but his towel which was wrapped around his torso. His eyes met mine before he walked toward the closet, not saying a word. And it was then that I realized that I wasn’t sure whether he was upset with me or not. But I knew one thing, the last thing that I wanted was for him to
Ezra: “What do you want to do today?” Lia asked, breaking my train of thoughts as she wrapped her arms around me from the back while I sat on my desk, reading through a few papers. The fact that I hadn’t told her about Rosemary was still annoying me, but considering the fact that I was taking her there now, I knew that explaining this was a must. “I want to take you somewhere before we head to Rome tomorrow. But the two of us have to talk first.” I said, making her frown in confusion. I wrapped my hand around her wrist, pulling her to stand in front of me. “What’s going on?” She asked, shaking her head in question. “A seer is coming over today, I want the two of you to talk before we...” “A what?” “A seer, the one who predicted Killian’s death being on your hand. I know…” “Hold on, hold on, what?” She asked, stopping me. Her frown was one that I don’t even remember seeing before, at least not in such an angered state. Her eyes studied my expression for a few seconds as if try
Lia: I sat on the edge of the bed as I processed what the woman said. The way she spoke made my chest ache, and my heart race, but I forced myself to stay quiet and calm in front of Ezra who I knew must have had so much on his mind right now. “Lia, I did not come here to harm you. But I did come here to warn you. Thankfully, Ezra had invited me beforehand, but I would have come to see you whether or not he had.” Rosemary said, snapping me out of my daze. Her eyes were fixed on me for a few seconds, and despite the pain that I felt in my chest, I nodded at her to go on, wanting to know what she wanted to say. The fact that she was speaking to me the way that she was made my heart race. If she was really being honest, and if she knew who I was, where I was, and what I have been going through, then why didn’t she come to me from the start? “Killian will come for you. One way or the other, he will try to separate you and Ezra for you to be with him. He asked me whether Ezra’s death wo
Ezra:Lia’s eyes were wide in surprise as she heard the words leaving my mouth. I couldn’t blame her though.This wasn’t how I expected that I would be telling her about my feelings for her. But the fact that I knew that Killian was her mate brought more pain in me than a bullet piercing my skin.“You don’t have to say it back, princess. But I wanted you to know how I felt about you. I know that I am not the best at being a lover, and I know that as a husband…” Lia stopped me by connecting her lips with mine in a gentle kiss. One that had me smiling as I wrapped my arms around her, pulling her to my lap. She bit my bottom lip, pulling on it gently as she wrapped her arms around my neck, deepening the kiss.I lowered my hand to her waist, gently grinding her against me as my boner grew bigger under her. She moaned at the feeling, and letting out a low groan, I kissed her neck. The smell of her arousal set my own body on fire, and I didn’t know whether it was a moment’s heat or not, but
Lia: I stood by the living room’s door, debating on whether or not to walk inside. And it wasn’t until Ezra wrapped his arm around my waist, snapping me out of my daze that I felt somewhat frightened of what I was going to hear. The fact that the woman was my aunt was something, but the number of questions that I had playing in my head were countless, and the thing was, I didn’t even know how I would be able to voice them out. All I knew was that I was scared of the consequences of what I was going to hear. “Ezra, what if things end up going against everything that we are planning?” I asked, looking at my husband who smiled at me. He kissed my temple before nodding in assurance. “We have to trust that things will take the right path. One way or the other, we have to find out what it is.” He said, and I nodded. I took a deep breath before he opened the door for me, watching as I walked inside before he followed me. “I see that your husband has finally managed to calm you down.” Sh
Ezra:I stared at Lia who sat on the edge of the bed without saying a word. It has been a while since the two of us have gone back up to the bedroom, and despite knowing that I had a few things to tend to, I knew that I couldn’t just leave her to deal with her anger on her own. It was something that I was completely against, and seeing as I knew that she wouldn’t even speak to voice out what she was saying, I chose to simply stay by her side.“You know that I won’t do anything crazy, Ezra. You can choose to go where you need to.” Lia said, not bothering to look up at me. This was her fourth time asking me to leave, and though I knew that it was because she wanted to be alone, wanting, or more specifically, needing to digest what she had just heard, I chose not to leave. I didn’t want her dealing with such pain on her own, it was something that I was against, and was not going to allow.“Lia, neonata, I am your husband, and the last thing I want to do is leave you alone in such a situ
His eyes widened as they suddenly opened, his heart beating for the first time in weeks. That out of breath heavy one. One that he did not expect. His eyes searched around the tomb that he was in. Trying to process how he had gotten in here in the first place before his memory played back. The man had died. He was killed. He had kicked twice, but he didn’t open. Therefore, he chose to break it, punching it with a force that had it crashing on top of him. Sand fell on the man, but he didn’t care. He dug himself out, fearing that he was dead inside a tomb. In reality, he was. But he was yet to process that he came back from life, he came back from a different world, and that was something that was going to change a lot in him. He growled, getting out of the hole that he was in, taking a deep breath as he inhaled his oxygen. People who were around him, watching the scene, having initially come to visit their loved ones tried to flee. However, he didn’t really care. He stood up tryin
Ezra:“I didn’t want to speak in front of Lia, but what the hell happened?” I asked, frowning at my brother as we entered my office. We were back at New York’s Estate. However, I still couldn’t understand everything that we have lived through back at Rome, literally nothing made sense and that was something that I was well aware of. I didn’t even need to explain how wrong everything was to my brother, the man already knew.“I have no idea. But whatever it is, I really don’t know how this is going to lead us. Why did he drag us all the way to Rome when he could have killed her here?” Alvize asked, frowning in confusion. He was right, the two of us couldn’t understand anything that happened. Mom didn’t know what happened just yet, but I knew that when she heard, she was not going to be happy about it. I still didn’t even know how we were going to deal with Andromeda. The demon was going to put us through hell for this. And we weren’t even the reason behind her daughter’s death, but how
Lia: I looked at the woman, Annalise, who stood in front of us, shifted to a complete wolf. However she had done it. I don’t know, but I assumed that she had shifted before the moon rose. Regardless of what we told her and the facts that she knew, the woman didn’t seem to care. She was determined to lose her life here and now, and that was not something that we could allow. We at least needed this night to end without problems. Annalise had completely lost her mind, and that was something that I was sure of. Killian looked at the two of us, smirking as he watched his sister approaching. Alvize wrapped his arm around me and pulled me back from the two Lycans, not wanting me to get hurt. I knew that he needed me alive. I had to be the one to kill Killian. The blade was with me and not with Ezra, but that didn’t mean that they wouldn’t hurt my husband and that was not something that I wanted. “You heard me, Ezra D’Caprio.” Annalise said, threatening my husband. I looked at Ezra, wait
EzraMy wife and I ran through the hallways of the house. This mansion was huge, and needless to say, I understood what she meant by every single door here was named after her. She didn’t only mean that garden store, literally every single door was named after her. Most of the doors were locked, and only unlocked when we said Annalise. Either Killian was obsessed with the woman, or someone else had bought the house, and knowing Killian, I was sure that it wasn’t him that wanted every door to be named after the woman.The man proved to everyone that he did not like the woman. If anything, he has always tried to get rid of her, either by getting her married or by sending her on a mission that would kill her. The last of them was him knowing that she was within a relationship with the demon and yet not stopping it. How he had known and had the heart for it, I didn’t understand. However, I didn’t bother questioning it. At this point, all common sense wasn’t real, and if anything, I doubt
Lia:I had to fight the urge to snap the man’s neck as I glared at him. I knew that it wouldn’t help me. The man needed to be stabbed in the heart. Making sure that he took his last breath. It was the only way that he would die. A blade in the heart. While looking him in the eye, making sure that it was deep enough for him to die.Annalise took a slow step back. Trying to flee my anger, however, I simply laughed, mocking her as my husband stood by my side. He wrapped his arm around my waist as he pulled me closer, making sure to keep his eyes on the Lycans who were afraid. “Now, you know that we couldn’t do anything and that the two of us were weak. The two of us were nothing.” I said, recalling the Lycan’s insulting words when he had me captive in his house. It was something that I wouldn’t forget or forgive him for. The pain and anger that I have lived through was one that would forever be stuck in my head. “Yeah, how many words have you said so far?”I knew that I was taunting the
EzraI stayed quiet for a few seconds as I looked at the doors that opened, revealing the mansion that we were going to enter. Annalise let out a sigh of relief, clearly happy that we had arrived ‘safely’. She didn’t know the consequences that came with this arrival.Though they were unaware of our hands and my feet being free, the two of us stayed completely still, not wanting them to find out just yet. Things needed to take time, however this time was not on our side, we needed to work fast. It was the night where everything was going to end. Otherwise it was as though going to end.“Get them out.” Annalise said, glaring at the men. Her orders towards the men made them flinch. However, they did not dare to object as they opened the door for us. I stayed still, looking at the woman, watching as the men approached us. My wife’s expression was calm, and I knew that it was something that somewhat frightened the men and the Lycan who stood in front of us. The last thing she expected was
Lia: I sat in back of the truck, looking at my husband’s reflection as he smirked. Having just arrived in Rome, the woman was taking us to the Estate, at least, I think that it was one, for all of this to end. Ezra and I shifted the other night in the plane, leading the cabin crew, Annalise, and three of her brother’s men to be afraid of us. They had to put us to sleep to ensure that we didn’t kill them. Flashback: My body forced me to shift as the full moon rose in the sky. Though we were in the plane, our wolves could feel the rise of the moon, so we shifted. “What the fuck is going on?” Annalise asked, hearing our growls as she walked toward the compartment that we were in. I looked at my husband who nodded before the two of us got ready in the shadow. “What the fuck are the two of you going on about? You are already fed…” Ezra jumped on the woman first causing her to stumble back before I went to grab her arm. A man tried attacking me; however, I jumped on his arm, biting
Ezra: “What the fuck do you mean by the man left to Rome?” I asked, glaring at Francesco who looked down at his feet, avoiding my eyes, clearly wanting to run away from it. I knew that the last thing he needed was to get in the middle of this. The man was assigned to make sure that Killian didn’t even reach the airport; therefore for him to just easily escape, now that was something that I couldn’t understand. “Boss…” “Do not ‘boss’ me. I want direct responses. YOU, Bruno, and Valdez were assigned to…” “He killed them, Alpha.” He said, making me frown before the smell of blood filled my nostrils as he raised his shirt and bandage. Lia gasped, and I knew that she wasn’t looking at me or Francesco, her face wasn’t even directed at us. “Ezra…” “Not now, Lia.” I said, rushing to the man’s side. I wrapped my arm around the man, noticing that his intestines were showing. However he made it here, I didn’t know, but I didn’t intend on asking to find out. “Ezra!” Lia snapped, making me f
Lia:I watched as Ezra walked out of the basement where the cells were and frowned when I saw his anger in his eyes.Donatello, who was standing beside me, shook his head, motioning for me not to interfere.I knew that the man would need a little time to process what happened, and though I knew that he wouldn’t be taking it as easy as one, two, and three. He needed time to allow himself to digest everything that he has been going through, and to begin with, he needed time to actually think straight.“Donatello, I can’t just leave him to handle this on his own.” I said, looking at the man who shook his head at me.“For now, he needs to process what has happened. I know that it would be hard for you to leave him alone in this state. Especially as his mate, you would be finding the urge to want to go to him. But he needs to be able to think straight before the two of you can talk.” He said, and despite the pain that I felt at knowing that my mate was hurt, I was forced to stand still. Hi
